Under the general direction of Governor Bates, plans are in progress for restoring the forests of Massachusetts by the work of convict camps. This will be the first experiment of the kind in the United Sthtes. It will probably attract the no- tice of sociologists all over the world, says the Boston Advertiser. The work will be done on a large scale, and practically every section of this State where forests are needed will eventually benefit by the policy. As for the State, there is good reason for saying that the profits of the undertaking will in time be big enough to wipe out the present State debt. Possibly it may make all State taxes unnecessary, The State will take lands by the right of eminent domain. Only land now con- sidered worthless but good enough to plant trees on, will be taken. Outside of the large cities of Massachusetts, such | land exists almost everywhere. The land long ago refused to pay taxes on it. It is, to all practical purposes, public land to-day. The back taxes on such land are enough to wipe out any claim to ownership that might be set up. There Is other land, almost as worthless, on which small taxes have been paid, the land being assessed at only a nominal price. This land also, if taken by emi- nent domain could be bought for little more than the expense of condemnation, In almost every case, this land was once the site of a forest, but the wood has been cut off. As it is good for noth- ing else but woodland, the owners will be £lad to get anything for ft. The takings by the State, therefore, will amount in all to a good many thousand acres, probably, The total cannot yet be stated, because even the State officials have not yet de- cided upon that total. When the land is taken the work of carrying out the reforestation of the State will be carried out by Chairman Pettigrove, the head of the State Depart- ment of Prisons. It is calculated that if the right kind of trees can be made to grow, on the in- vestment of a small sum, the State In 30 years will get something like $20,000,000 from the sale of the standing timber, and that thereafter the income of the State will amount to millions of dollars every vear.—New York Commercial. —_——— M. Fremiet, the French sculptor, has received a commission for a monument, to be erected in Paris, in memory of the pigeons which carried messages during the siege. At its commencement the in- stitution of the pigeon post was of marked service, and thousands of letters and dis- | patches were sent out from Paris by this mcans. TURING the transition period, when early homecomers are waiting for their friends to return to town, their femi- nine hands and heads are busily arranging charitable [work for the autymn. Benefits will be given earlier this@year than usual. A kitchen shower by the Alden Club and a bazaar for the Maria Kip Orphanage are already In preparation. Many of the fair sex are busily at work on dainty articles which will be sold in the booths by tractive girls, thus bringing many shekels for practical work amorg the poor. U ENGAGEMENTS.

The first actual work of restoration on the ruins of San Antonio de Padua be- 8an on Monday last by the California Landmarks League, when the descend- ants of the old neophytes gathered in the sanctuary to clear out the fallen beams and gather the unbroken tiles and adobes with which to replace the roof and walls. The old cement-lined noria, or com- munity well, was cleaned out while the committée was on the ground, and after twenty-five years' Inactivity it gave forth a fine volume of ice-cold water. This work on the well has been in contempia- tion by the neighboring people for twenty years, but Jolon is a “manana” country and it remains for the league to place it once again in commission. The lumber for the restoration is fur- nished by the Sans lumber mill, situa on the Santa Luclas, about twenty m from the mission, and its proximity has reduced the price almost one-half. It is an interesting fact that most of these glant timbers are being cut and hau by descendants of the mission Indfan who have continued to practice the in- dustries taught their ancestors by the padres in the long ago. So, too, will the walls be rebuilt large- Iy by their hands. The work is in charse of Architect Will D. Shea, but the im- mediate superintendency iIs in the hands of J. Alonzo Forbes, who for thirty-seven years has lived within call of the mission bells and Is familfar with every detail of the famous old cloister. Many of the Spanish residents of the surrounding country have volunteered to donate a week's labor toward the restoration of their beloved chapel, within whose shad- ~w many were reared, and this offer be- speaks a patriotism that is good to see, for the sun shines hot on the San Anto- nio Valley and produces an overpowering antipathy to labor. The league has obtained proprietorship from George Dutton of many furnishings of the mission and numerous articles used about the ancient workshops. Th n- cluding a beautiful copper baptismal font, will be replaced in the cloister when the restoration s complete. The league has on hand $1100, which it confidently hopes will be augmented as the work progresses. The Native Sons and Native Daughters have manifested great interest in the belated work of res- toration, and at its last Grand Council the Young Men's Institute announced its intention to asisst in the patriotic work. ———— A German named Sporry has published a book of nearly two hundred pages, with one hundred illustrations, sheowing the varied uses made of bamboo in Japan. l
