To Reforest the Country.
Washington, April 22. Arbor
day was celebrated here by the
planting of two memorial trees in
the department of . agriculture
grounds. The trees are to com
memorate the work of the late
secretary of- agriculture, J". M.
Rusk, and the late assistant sec
retary, E. M. Willetts. Secretary
Wilson, Prof. Galloway, director
of the bureau of plant industry,
and Mr. Sub worth, one of the tree
experts of the department, made-
addresses. i
Secretary Wilson said : “It is
our privilege and our duty to take
steps for the reforesting of oar
country. Educators throughout;
the centuries have paid no atten
tion to this subject. Only within;
the last few years have any of our
educational institutions e s t a b-
lished schools for instruction
along these lines. It is within our

Mr. Anderson will be remembered
the man who was, on last
Christmas eve, blown about thirty
feet in the air over a telep!

pound can of powder. The
Thomas Lincoln, the father of
Abraham Lincoln
was a great
story-teller, and one yarn that he
never tired of telling was a blood
curdling Indian tale. One day
when he was about 7 or 8-years-
old and living in Kentucky, a
small band of Indians came rush
ing by on horseback. One of
them, with a sweep ot his long
arm, seized the lad and gallopec
off. Little Tommy Lincoln
looked up into the red warrior’s
face and said: “Don’t kill me.
Take me a prisoner.” The Indian
smiled. Just then a rifle cracked.
Indian and boy tumbled off the
horse, the Indian dead, with a
bullet in his brain. Tommy Lin-

Strand streets. Notwithstanding
Anderson had both arms crushed,
his left ankle broken, the sight of
one eye nearly destroyed, his body
blackened and blistered and his
clothes torn to tatters, as soon as
he struck the ground he arose and
-ran to a clump of shrubbery some
yards distant, where he was res
cued by his wife and nurses from
the Sealy hospital, to which latter
institution he was conveyed.
Mr. Anderson has recovered suf

in the world who was blown over
a telephone wire by the explosion

Our Railroad Kings.
A railroad president and a Uni

about government ownership of
railroads.
“I believe,” said the senator,
“that it would be a good idea for
this government to buy and oper
ate all the railroads in the United
ted States.” *
“Well,” replied the railroad
president, smiling significantly,
“if the government has the money
to pay for two hundred thousand
miles of railroad, with an aggre
gate capitalization of nearly $5,-
000,000,000, I can point out the
shop where most of the goods
be bought.”
“The shop?” echoed the senator,
inquiringly.

Old Apothecaries and Doctors.
The offenses of apothecaries in the
middle ages were numerous and the
punishment in some cases a whipping.
The worst was the improper sale of
poisons—that is to say. except when
not duly prescribed by a known physi
cian of reputation, and even then not
to put down in a register the name of
the doctor and person to whom such
prescription containing poison was de
livered. was punishable likewise. The
sale of poison for drugging fish was
prohibited and also that of inferior
drugs by any apothecary. To prescribe
himself (unless a doctor could not be
found) was an offense punishable by a
whipping, and all preparations sold by
him had to be made up in the presence
of the doctor or of another apothecary.
A barber surgeon might only prescribe
for exterior applications “according to
surgery.” but we are not told what was
the penalty in such a case.—Gentle
