MAY INQUIRE INTO THE LUMBER TRUST fThis Possibility Due to Lorimcr Scandal, Philadelphia Paper Says. Philadelphia. April 11. According to h Washington dispatrh to the North American, Investigation of the lumber truat by a federal grand Jury will be started within the next two or three weeks. Kvery efrort has been exerted by the department of just lee to keep the plana of the government secret. "Knough hua been learned from other aoureeB, however.'" Hays the dispatch, "to arford substantial baais for the aaaertlon that the evidence already eolleeted la deemed sufficient for presentation to u grand jury with a vlow lo criminal proceedings against the corporations and Individuals who rornpoae the combinations generally designated as the lumber truat. Hinet Activity the Cause. "The great lumber Interests of the country have recently been brought Into uddilional public disfavor as among the thief supporters of Senator William Lorimer, through th activity In behalf of Mr. Lorimer or Kdward Mines, millionaire lumberman of Chicago, who haa represented the lumber Interests generally In Washington. "Mines recently appeared before the ways and means committee of the houae and the finance committee of the senate In opposition to Canadian reciprocity tiecaiiae of the damage ho Insisted would be done the lumber interests, lierorc that he had called upon the President to protest against the notoriety which was being given the lumber combinations by the Investigation Into their affairs made by the commissioners of conoration8. "Mr. Mines, it Is retried, urged the President to make public all the Information obtained by the commissioner of corporations, asserting It would not show the existence of a lumber trust, because none existed, and that it would therefore, tend to Hop what Mr. Mines declared was 'harmful misrepresentation of the men iitul corporations engaged in the lumber business. Bearing on Lorimer Case. "Soon after this, the bureau of corporations published a bulletin on the private ownership or timber lands, which, bo far from dispelling the suspicion that there is a lumber tniBt, presented information which clearly Indicated the existence of such a combination. Necessarily the prospective investigation of the trust has no relation whatever to the Lorimer case, and yet It also obvious that each has a bearing uon the other. "Mines' efforts to elect Lorimer were first enliste,d when, according to his own testimony, he was urged by Senators Aldrich and Penrose to do what he could to break the deadlock In the Illinois legislature, In order that another vote could be obtained for the Aldrich tariff bill and the high rates of duty on lumber which Mines demanded for the lumber interests. "Mines and the lumber trust wanted protection. Aldrich and Penrose declared an additional vote for the Aldrich bill would accomplish most in obtaining for them the tariff rates they wanted. . The North American then comments on the coincidental activity of lumber trust heads and the Lorimer exposurcB. Control of Timber Supply. "The only Information made public by the. government bearing upon the subject Is that contained in the report of tho commissioner of cororations uKn the ownership of the timber sitply of the country," continues the disputch. "This report shows that, while foray years ago at least three fourths of the timber supply was owned by the government, now four-fifths of It is privately owned. It passed from the control of the government chiefly

through enormous grants to railroad, canal and wagon road companies, and by the violation and evasion of public land laws, which were themselves wholly inadequate to protect the publie interest. The value of the holdings of their present owners is estimated at $,000,oo,oOO. " Less than two thousand owners hold more than 88,0110,000 acres of standing timber, an average of forty thousand acres each, or seventy-seven square miles. Of these two thousand owners many hold comparatively small areas. A few hold the great bulk of the nation's property. . "The three largest owners, the commissioner of corporations shows, are the Southern and Union Pacific railroads and the Weyerhaeuser Timber company. The latter which is generally regarded as the dominating influence in the lumber combination and has been represented by Edward Mines, owns 1.945.00 acres of timber land in the northwest and controls vast additional acreage through family connections and business associates. "The Southern Pacific holds 4,18,000 acres in Callfornian and Oregon, and with the Union Pacific, which controls it, holds millions of acres elsewhere. The Northern Pacific holds 3.017,000 acres of timber in the northwestern states." A HAPPY HOME-COMING. The husband who conies home from bis daily toil, whether working for small or large pay, must appreciate the presence of a wife well gowned and rest fully aw aiting him, and children equally well groomed and showing every evidence or maternal care. A woman does not need to be a slave to drudgery, but a happy homebuilder.

WAILS OF ANGUISH CAM BE EXPECTED

From Those Separated From Fat and Easy Jobs by House Democrats. Washington, April 11. How $182,680 has been saved by the house Democrats has just become public through the report of the house sub-committee of which Representative A. Mitchell Palmer, of Pennsylvania was chairman. It is one of the most interesting documents produced by , congressional authority for a long time, recommending as it does, the elimination of time-worn jobs that seemed to lie a part and parcel of the house of representatives for decades past. On striking example of the waste or public salary runds, as the subcommittee Chairman was pleased to describe it. was tlie discovery that a thirteen-year-old daughter of Chief Doorkeeper Lyons was on the payroll us "clerk to the Doorkeeper" at a sal ary of $I.:;oo a year, with an extra, month's pay each year as a vocation j gratuity. The committee was unable' to-discover exactly what tlie functions of the "clerk of the Doorkeeper" were, and consequently the position was abolished. Jobs' Never Ended. In the. course of his report Mr. Palmer observed that numerous positions were created in the house from time to time, but none appear ever to have an ending. The pay envelopes have been handed out regularly for each position, from month to month, without any inquiries to the value of the services rendered by the persons receiving them. Ludicrous illustrations of this were developed during the course of tho committee's investigations. "Soon after tho Spanish war broke out," Mr. Palmer says in his report, "somebody's friend told somebody's cousin that somebody's aunt had heard some one say that a plot was on foot to dynamite tho Capitol. Thirty-eight extra policemen were added. They have remained ever since." There was a hesitancy on the part of the committee, Mr. Palmer says, as to whether or not these US policemen should be continued on the payroll permanently because of a war scare III years ago. The jobs were lopped off at a saving of about $39,000 annually. Easy for These Boys. A paradoxical relic of an ancient and "ong forgotten situation was discovered in connection with the service of two telegraph operators. Many years' before the telephone was invented a private telegraph line was installed between the War Department and the House wing. Two operators were provided for this wire. The telephone came along and nobody used the telegraph any longer. The operators didn't say anything about it, and it never occurred to any-' body to ask what they did for their wages. They just drew their salaries and drew and drew. They got $1,400 apiece which seemed good to them. The Palmer Committee had the out-! rageous indecency to get next to their! snap, and now they are going to be compelled to learn the Morse code again and do real work. In 1805, the report says, the clerk's document room of the house wan; abolished. With its passage into history were intended to go all of the document room's attaches. Salaries Still Went on. The committee discovered that, irrespective of the 1895 decree, the document room was still in existence, and so were the corps of clerks drawing a salary total of $6,260 every year. The committee decided on its abolition forthwith. The investigation, among other things, reported that the House folding room had attached to it two night watchmen, drawing something like $900 a year each. As the Capitol building is patrolled by a police force of "4 policemen, the committee came to the conclusion the document room could well afford to dispense with its pair of watchmen in the future. Altogether the Palmer committee found the House could exist without the services of clerks and other employes to the following amounts: Saving under Speaker $ 2.320 00 Saving under clerks 39,970 00 Saving under Sergeant-at-Arms 47,050 00 Saving under doorkeeper .. 31,340 00 Saving by abolishing extra month's pay ' 50,000 00 Savong through abolishing six committees 12,000 00 Total $1S2,6S0 00 Polo!

HIGH SCHOOL NEWS The day students of Earlham will present the same play, "Sweet Lavender," which they gave at Lindley Hall last Saturday evening, in the auditorium tomorrow nigh. The proceeds will be divided between the high school and the day students. There was a great amount of skill shown in the first performance but the second is expected to be still better. Several of the teachers chose to attend the Northern Indiana Teachers' association at Indianapolis last Thursday and Friday instead of visiting other schools. Among those who went to Indianapolis was Prof. Neff, who not only attended the association's meetings but also those of the Northern Indiana High School Principal's club and the Athletic Board of Control, both meeting at the Claypool. The Principals' club appointed Prof. Denny of Anderson, to receive all nominations for teachers of special ability deserving extra notice and to meet all wants for high school teachers. The club will meet here in October. The Athletic Board finished all business left over from the last meeting, two weeks ago. Elkhart has to forfeit all basket ball games because of the irregularities in the student management. All games played by Vincennes, Carlyle and Logoottee are to be called "no games" because of unfair treatment. The board also appointed a committee to meet with the authorities of Indiana university in order to remedy the trouble between South Bend and Rochester. The difficulty was caused by South Bend claiming it had been treated unfairly in the late basketball tournament at the university. The university put the blame onto the board and they wish to be cleared of the matter. The invitations for the state high school meet to be held at Terre Haute in May will be sent out to high schools of the state next week. The long postponed musical program promised by Prof. Earhart three weeks ago, will be given at tomorrow's chapel. The College Club will meet Friday evening in its room at 7:30, at which time Prof. McClellan will give a short talk the subject of which has not been announced. The club will, after the meeting, take a "hike" of a "few" miles. The Meridian club, which is composed of those students who bring their dinner, will meet Thursday noon and a very interesting literary program has been promised. Prof. Neff usually presides at these meetings. Last week the club held a spelling match, the words for which were chosen from those given at the state match. The Kit Kat Club will meet Thursday, the eighth hour. A special program has been arranged. The Seniors have sent for several plays from which one will be chosen for their class play. They have received word from Miss Pond, with whom they had communicated that she can not come and neither does she know any one whom she can recommend to coach the play. The class does not know what they will do for a coach, as all the teachers are too busy to give the time necessary. The Tennis .Club has reoragnized and began work on the courts last night. Prof. Miller, who is in charge of the club, says that the courts are in pretty good condition and will not require so very much work to put them in good shape; also that they are very soft, but that makes them easy to level off. There are about thirty members of the club, including some very skillful players. They are planning to hold a tournament this spring and the board of control has promised to award "R's" to the winners and runners up in a straight tournament. The Dramatic club held its first program meeting last evening which prove.d to be very interesting. The principal feature of the program was a dialogue taken from the old play of Abraham and Isaac. The scene presented w as where Abraham was going to slay Isaac as a sacrifice. The parts were taken by Edwin Flook, as Abraham, and Robert Taylor as Isaac. How to Gain Flesh A simple but sure way to increase the weight, it is asserted by several well known physicians, is to take regularly for several months, one or two 3 grain hypo-nwlane tablets after each meal. These little tablets have the distinguished merit of Increasing the red and white blood corpuscles, aiding digestion and promoting assimilation and absorption of the elements. in the food which ro t o make blood and solid tissues.

UIIIVERSin CIGARS Columbia Inherits 60,000 Smokes from Crocker. New York, April 11. The trustees of Columbia university are in a quandary regarding the disposition of about sixty thousand cigars, said to be worth between twenty thousand and thirty thousand dollars, according to tobacco experts. The cigars are the property of the university through the will of the late George Crocker, who left the university a sum exceeding one million dollars, to be devoted to the study of the cure cancer, a disease to which both he and his wife fell victims. Part of the bequest to the university included a magnificent country place, consisting of a beautiful house and 1,200 acres of land at Marwah, N. J., in the Ramapo mountains, with all appurtenances. It was in the basement of this house that the enormous collection of fine cigars were discovered. They were found in a specially constructed "vault of large dimensions, built into the side wall of the basement. The cigars are of rare quality, having been made especially for Mr. Crocker who was a great lover of the weed. Most of the cigars are stamped with the monogram of Mr. Crocker, and the markings on the boxes show that they were made in the leading factories of the world. The trustees of the university and others engaged in settlement of the es tate are puzzled over the problem of disposal of the cigars. So far nothing definite has been decided. Before the cigars can be sold it will be necessary to determine whether the cigars fall under the classification of "household goods and furnishings." If the lawyers decide that they can not be so classed according to the terms of the will the trustees will be unable so sell them and will have to determine on some other disposition for them.

RUSH THE WORK Oil MAIIIE WRECKAGE Steel Piles Placed and First Big Task Successfully Concluded.

Havana. April 11. In the driving of the last few interlocking steel piles of the last of the twenty caissons forming the inclosing wall of the huge basin or cofferdam surrounding the wreck of the Maine, the first stage in the great work of removing the shattered remains of the battleship sunk in the harbor at Havana on the night of Feb. 15, 1908. has just been brought to a successful conclusion. The work was accomplished with a rapidity fully up to the most sanguine expectation of the army engineers in charge, and its progress was unmarked by a single mishap or hitch until the introduction of the final pile, which failed to interlock properly with those on either side. This gave rise to a rumor that the stability of the caisson was endangered, but examination showed that the trouble resulted from the pile being slightly deformed by an accidental blow from the iron bucket of a dredgtU working alongside and the extraction and replacing of three piles served to repair the damage. The second stage of the work, that of filling the caissons as fast as they were completed with mud. clay and rock dredged from the harbor bottom has been going on for some time as fast as circumstances would permit, and now that the ring of the caissons is completed is being pushed forward with the utmost rapidity. The steam dredge Norman Davis, loaned to the government by the Hudson-Trumble Dredging company, and the United States army dredge Barnard are dumping hundreds of tons of material into the caissons, the work going on as it has from the beginning night and day. It is expected the filling of the caissons will be completed by the end of April, and after that the third and most interesting stage of the work that of pumping out the great basin and leaving exposed the hull of the Consumption Anyone interested in the cure of Consumption should get one of the booklets telling of recoveries by the use of Kckman's Alterative.
