What Mapttens In a Forest Kir*. The tragedies of the wild ar* brought home to the human beings of this world when the fires occur In forests that extend close to settlements. Slany little farm shacks located In clearings of the Western woods, are eomplotely wiped out by tnese flics, and many are the tales of heroism told hv frontiersmen who*o fellows have fought for their homes anil sometimes for the lives of themselves and their families. The approach of a forest lire Is usually heralded by great flocks of birds that fly overhead going with the wind and away from the fire. Soon after a migration of craw ling and creeping and run Ins things is noticed, and this is followed by a small of smoke. The atmosphere sce™s to become^ satiir-

DELAY BAD AS DEFEAT. It is certain that w* need to simplify our system of Jurisprudence. In clrll aa well as criminal cases there should b<* a more *wift procedure. De lay is often ax bad as defeat. Our criminal dockets are crowded with indietment.s which never come to trial and which should be handled by the minor Judiciary.

THE WONDERS OF NATURE. There is something marvellous in ttv fact that a tree will tower for de cades unscathed of storm and get struck by lightning the first time any one seeks shelter under it from the rain.

HOW WVi r, STREET STARTED. Defense, Was ♦trUrin of tile Rcstlinown Tfiotsughfnr* in America. On tbe mot sing of March 31, HUM. a mnn of clerkly appearance might have been seen standing at th* entrance to the dilapidated fortress of New Amsterdam, with a sheaf of official papers in his hands, says Frederick Trevor Hill In lliirrer’s Magazine. It was not an Inviting prospect that confronted tbe obaorver that raw soring morning, lor the roughly built, wooden houses scattered about the fort looked sndly weath-er-beaten. ami the straggling. 111mad* roads and paths which served n* streets were littered with refuse and rtibLisu of every sort and aultie

deep tn mud.

The man at the fort did not. however. waste much time In sazit.g at thcne dlMcouraging surround! ugs. They were familiar to him in every dreary detail, for Cornelius Van Tlenhoven h«'t been se’rotary of the council at New Amsterdam for many years, and If he bad ever been disturbed by the prevailing wretchedness ot th* town. It had ’on* since ceased to afford him the lightest concent. Slowly turning his back tc the view, he tacked one of his official documents to the wall of the fort, nod then swinging about and picking his way across the miry ground to a convenient tree, affixed

another paper.

Van Tlenboven’s handwriting was easily read Indeed, good penmanship was the only qualification he I had ever displayed for his office, that virtue had wholly failed to endear him to the populace, who hated the v>-ty sight of his clerical flst. Th* particular notice he hnd transcribed that loom‘.ng, however, was singularly tree of offense. It merely recited a resolution of the director and council of New Ntlkerland. that a harrier he erected the north of the settlement, sufficiently strong to prevent the straying of cattle and to protect hem from the indlr.ns and "warned" all Interested persons to appear on "next Monday, thb Ith of A’tril. ar 7 o clock,” for the prosocu-
