The author speaks of tbe book as a study rather than as a biography, but It really Is a onieny. Howevor, evon a simple biogra phy or this geed, great man, must m a eulogy.

Te obtain en adequate ldea of the relative Importance of this pro duct It will only be nocessary te lustitute it brlef comparison with ethor brandies of Industry or wealth. The value of the forest products was equal te one-thlrd of that of all farm products whatsoever, sold, con sumed or en hand In the year 1870.

A resident of Martinsville, In., n lined Jerry Glvens, has received a letter from u rich undo In California which Indicates that the young man Is likely te be adopted and niaile his heir. A strange famllyhlstery is recalled by this incident. There was an estraugeuicut between the uiun new Iu Cal- irernta and the rather of veung Jerry, who Is long since dead. Ilenry, the elder brother, drifted te the for Weet, ana dis covered the whereabouts of his young helr only through a publication which nar rated a remarkable adventure in which tbe latter was mtpNred. Seme time age, whlle hunting in the While 111 ver bottoms, he encountered a great nest of snakes. This circumstance gained wide circulation in the papers, and finally csaght the eye or the clder Glvcns. Proponed Chanice of the Taxca enlC'Isara There was en Friday laid before the Heuse of Ueprosentatlvesaeommunlcatlon from the commissioner of Internal revenue submitting certain modifications, amend ments, etc, te existing laws with reference te taxation of manufacturers of cigars. The first amendment receuimeiided la that the bend leoulred or manufacturers be net less than 9100. Instead or net less than (TiOO, and that the preposition requiring the manufacturer te give an additional bend of f 100 for each person employed by Jilin In making cigars be stricken out. The commissioner recommends another amendment te the existing law te permit packing cigars in boxes te contain twelve or thirteen each. His reasons for se recommending this amendment are an almost universal de mand bv manufacturers of clears. who state that under existing laws they are compelled te pack cigars in boxes contain ing net less than 25. which results in furn ishing gratis samples or 25 when 12 or 13 will accomplish the result desired. He also rocemnieuds that upon sample boxes containing 12 or 13 cigars each the tax shall be Tour eents. Kllled by Kleetrlclty. Thopeworof electricity as a death deal ing Instrument was demonstrated at the works or the Brush Klectrle Light and Perter company, In Indianapolis, en Fri ll ry night. James Clark e, an empleye, was Instantly killed by a shock. He had charge or two dynamos, and also assisted In operallng the switchboard. Clark started te change a circuit from ene onglne te unother. A circuit Is changed by shifting the wires en the switchboard. Attached te the end of each wlre Is a wooden handle through which the Insu lated wire passes. The handle hangs from a hook en the switchboard. In shifting the current Clark unhooked ene wlre with ids left hand and the ethor with his right. As he did se his fingers accidentally came In contact with the metal at tbe ends of oue or the wooden handles. The touch formed a circuit which the man's body completed. The current, 4,000 volts strong, hurled Clark backward a dtstance of tweuty feet. Death was Instantaneous The current that passed through Clark's body supplies slxty-soveu arc lights.
