The meeting called for Tuesday evening
In the orphans' court room, for the pur
pose of forming a branch of the Pennsyl
vanla Forestry association, was net largely
attended, en account of the Inclement
weather.
It waa called te order by Simen P. Eby.
A. F. Hostetter was elected chairman and
Frank R. Dlffenderffer secretary.
Mr. Eby.ln stating the object of the gath
ering, referred te the Importance or the
work. There la plenty of It te be done
around Lancaster. The object of the asso
ciation Is net that every member starts out
te plant trees, but te create a sentiment
and educate the people In forestry. It Is
net the intention te put nil Lancaster county
under forests, and when we have them
never te cut them down, but te preserve
timber In placea needed for aanltary rea
sons and also te plant trees, net for timber,
but for the preservation of the aell. Hun
dreds of tens of the soil of Lancaster
county are annually carried away,
and the subject la Important In thla
aspect. The aell carried away, geolo
gists tell us, took thousands of yeara
te create, and yet the poeplo ace It going
away and de nothing te prevent It. Get
people who own land en the banka of
atreams te plant trees and aave the aell. It
la net the Intention of the forestry associa
tion te plant all the wheat Holds In the
county with forests ; only the waste lends.
Trees along the Conestoga would prevent
the earth washing into the creek, and de
away with the dirty water Laucaater peo
ple have se often te drink. In conclusion
Mr. Eby read the following letter :
OrganUert or the tanauttr frtttry Jlranth :
'Gentlemen After my recent experience
among you, which was pleasant and
firefltsble In every respect, I am naturally
ntcreated In the sucoessa of your proposed
forestry organization. Let me write there
fore a few words of counsel, which may
have occurred te any before me, but which
yet I want te make aure that they shall be
presented.
The beginning of your efforts seems te
have been ae successful that It Is of utmost
importance te forge the Iren while It la het.
That la te aay, whatever you de in the way
of propaganda, de it new and with all
energy, for If your efforts lag new, the ad
vantage and momentum gained will be
lest. After the first year of .persistent
work the permanent boneflt will be secured.
I suggest, therefore, that In the first year
of your exlstence you arrange for meetings
of your branch, perbapa In the heuae of
some member in the varieua tewna of the
county every month, bringing te the moot meet
ing new facta you have gathered In regard
te the forestry needs of your own county
and interesting information, and also
bringing te it some frienda that are net yet
fully Interested.
The first effort of your organization
should be te gather defiulte and tangible
data regarding the conditions of the wood
lands In your county, with reference te
water conditions especially, and also te fix
the placea where re-foreatatlen Is desir
able, waste places, &c. By this and after
thla forest aurvey, which can be done by
the individual membera ss they go, it will
be eaaier te bring about action, because
you can recemmend definite action.
If from time te time you can arronge for
public forestry meetings and forestry talks
at special occasions, especially before, the
normal school and fartnera' institutes, I
can conceivn that within a year your prin
cipal labor of propaganda will be ever, and
forestry interests will mere or less take
caroef thomselves; whlle, if net pushed te
the full extent right at the start, it may be
a tedious work dragging through years
and tiring your own interest.
If I personally, or this division, can be
of any assistance in you work I hepe you
will call without reserve en
Yours very truly. B. K. Fjjhnew,
Chief of Forestry Division.
Mr. McCaskey aald there was a chance
for work near Lancaster. The banka of the
Conestoga are nearly stripped of their
shade. That would be a geed place te start
and wenld be the beginning of a suitable
aite for a public park. If the land along
the creek, between'Woedward'a Reck and
Graeff a Landing, could be secured and
planted with treea there would be no mere
eligible location for a city park.
Prof. KlolTer said there was no mere Im
portant question confronting the farmers
and people. The suggestion of Prof.
Fernow te get the'farmeraand land owners
Interested was a geed one.
Dr. M. W. Raub aald there was no doubt
in the minds of any acquainted with Lan
caster county of the necessity of retaining
the forests still remaining. Thousands of
acres of land en the banka of the Conestoga,
Pequea and Mill creeks have been entirely
denuded of trees. He referred te the
terrace tree planting common in Europe
and recommended its adoption In this
country.
Mr. Feltz held that forests were needed
te aave the people from muddy
water, and there wcre urgent needs
of the city doing somethlng te
prevent the erosion of the soil en the
banks of the creek that gives Lancaster Us
water supply. In this city the citizens
should first work for themselves, because
charity begins at home. Induce councils
te have trevs planted along the banks of the
Conestoga and If necessary let the city
authorities offer a small royalty for each
acre of treea planted along the creeki After
thla la accomplished extend the work te
the country districts.
Dr. Wickersham favored tree planting,
but thought It would net prevent
erosion. He spoke of the methods
In use In Europe by terracing the hills te
prevent erosion of the aell, and be favored
a similar system in this country, because
it bad accomplished great geed and pre
vented te a great extent the washing away
of the aell.
A motion was made that an auxiliary
branch of the Pennsylvania Forestry asso
ciation be organized. This waa amended
te provide for the appointment of a com
mittee of five te report a constitution and
by-laws te an adjourned meeting.
The amendment was adopted and the
following nommlttee waa adopted : Dr. M.
W. Raub, 8. P. Eby, Prof. J. B. Kleffer, J.
P. McCaskey and C. 8. Feltz.
Thla committee will report at an ad
journed meeting te be held en Friday
evening at 8 o'clock.
Nicholas Danner'a Funeral.

"GOOD" MR. TTJTItlLL.
He Was a Church Member and Consid
ered a Respectable Cltlsen, But
Prove te Be a Villain.
One of the most respectable and respected
citizens of Ment Clslr, N. J,, has been
Jamea Tutbitlra boss mason. He arrived
there from Pert Jervla five years age. He
found plenty of work, married andwentte
live In a cesy home en Bloemfleld avenue.
He and his wile joined the Ment Clair Con
gregational church, and wen the respect
and esteem of their neighbors.
Tuthlll became very popular with hla
fellow townsmen. He Joined Excelsior
Heee company Ne. 2, and several social
clubs, and every one who knew him liked
him. He never drank nor swore, was ever
ready te help any one In need, and counted
hta friends by the score.
New all this li changed. Tuthlll Is a
prisoner In ths Raymond street jail, Brook
lyn, bis handsome wife Is locked up In jail
st Newark, and thelr names execrated by
the same people who only a week age
wars proud te be seen en the streets with
them.
The emlnently respectable Mr. Tathtll
has been found out tone the reckless bur
glar who for the past few yeara has 1een
robbing the homes of the wealthy In Ment
Clslr, Glen Ridge, Bleemfield, Orange and
surrounding towns, and his wife Te sus
pected of being his accomplice.
Shortly after Tutblll's arrival In Ment
Clair several bold burglaries were commit
ted in rapid succession. The burglar was
fearleas. He selected the finest residences
in which te find his plunder. As the bur
glar waa alwaya maaked, no one could
ever give a description of him. Tuthlll
started a movement te bring Finkerten
detect! ves te chase down the tnlef.
This waa done, but the criminal had ap
parently aeught ether fields, for nothing
was heard of him while the detectives were
In the vicinity. Mr. Tuthlll'a house was
never entered, and, whlle be was loud and
devout In hla thanks te the Almighty, who
apared him such s visitation, he waa active
In ceunselling these who had suffered by
the depredations of the midnight intruder.
A week age last Monday night the resi
dence of Geerge Beeth, a mason and per
sonal friend of Tuthlll, waa entered by the
burglar. Mr. Robertsen, who is thinking
of moving te Ment Clair, was Mr. Beeth's
gueat that night. As the village clock was
telling 12 he waa aroused by hla bedroom
window being opened, and a allm-hullt
man lightly Jumped into the room from
the veranda. .
Mr. Robertsen watched him and saw
him coolly atrlke a match en the wall and
leek about, Then he deftly abstracted Mr.
Robertaon'a geld watch from hla vest and
the match went out. The thief waa strik
ing another match when Mr. Robertsen
lumped out of bed and grappled with htm.
The cold muzzle of a pistol made blm let go
aulcklv. and he fell back en the bed. The
burglar laughed sarcastically, and awung
himself out of the window and get away.
Mr. Robertsen awoke the household.
While he waa telling hta experience the
burglar waa less than a block away, get
ting into the residonce of Jehn Manuel,
another mason, and a warm friend of the
geed Mr. Tuthlll.
Manuel waa aroused befere the burglar
get into his room, though he gave him
battle en the piazza. The thief's maak
came off in the atruggle, and Mr. Manuel
could hardly bolleve hla senses, for the
face he recognized waa that of hia friend,
the vlllage favorite, JlmTutlilil. The latter
broke away. A (search waa made of hla
heuae, and the constables found in theeellar
a geld and diamond mine. Burled in the
party wall and thrown in conceal ed crevices
were rings, watches, diamonds, pocket
books, money, bracelels, breastpins, ear
rings, watch chaina and every kind of
jewelry, representing many thousand of
dollars, and seme which were stelen years
age.
The burglar had Jumped en hla horse
and ridden furiously te Bloemfleld, where
he took an express te Hobekon, Constable
Allworth traced htm te New Yerk, te
Brooklyn, and finally te Greonpelnt,where
he arrested htm en Monday. Tuthlll
atrenueualy donied hla guilt. Ills fermer

of a robber band, and that hla pretty wife
Is hla trusted lieutenant. She waa a r res ted

A OIUCAT FOX CHASE.
Hunters Frem the City aud County Clese
the Beasen en Tuesday.
The last fox chase of the season in this
section was held en Tuesday aftornoen at
the farm erw. W. Groah, near Neffivlile,
by the Lancaster club. The weather was
splendid for the sport and there waa quite
a large number of gentlemen present, the
majority of whom were en horseback.
After all had partaken of a fine lunch the
fox was dropped about half past two
o'clock. He was started In a grass
field Just north or the barn. He
ran towards the weat until he came te
the Frultvllle turnpike, wl;?re he turned
towards the north and started In the direc
tion of Lltltz. As toen aa the fox wai
dropped fourheund pups wero started after
him. They ran htm by sight for about a
quarter of a mlle when the fox became lest
from them en account of some buildings.
The youngsters thou took thetrall,keeplug
It for several mites. The showing that the
pups made was highly credllable and the
members of the elub were ploased with
them. It was about twenty minutes
after the fox had been atarted when the
two kennels of dogs were llberated. They
took the trail at ence and gave old Rey
nard, who, by the way, was a fleet-footed
animal, the warmest chase that he ha proba
bly ever known. The fox crossed the I.ltlti
turnpike at New Haven, and be was caught
about two miles farther towards the north
east, en the farm of Danlel Lefever. He
was se closely pursued by the hounds that
he took refuge lu a pile or beards where
Mr. Kaffreth, or Lltltz, captured him
allve. A number or ether hunters wero
preaeut at the close. Mr, Kaffreth, who
has become a member of the elub, turned
the fox ever te that organization. A thore
will bone mere chases the fox will be
llberated shortly.
This haa been the most surcesful season
that the tex hunters of this county, and
especially or thia clly, have ever known.
The sport haa become very popular here,
and te-day there are mere people Interested
In It than ever botere. Tbe result has been
that a large and strong kennel elub haa
been organized, and they will commence
next season tinder the most favorable
auspices. The elub will shortly fit up a
building en Mr. Gresh's farm which will
be used aa a club house. The kennels of
dogs will be strengthened, although from
the way the dega ran yesterday It don't
seem neceasary.
