The family of de la Pasture is of the ancient noblesse of the Boulonnais, and Henry de la Pasture's great-grandfather the second Marquis and fifteenth Count, who was a mousquetaire of the King's | guard, escaped during the revolution from France and became a naturalized British | subject. Mr. de la Pasture is proud of being an Englishman and declines to the French courtesy title of Co h he is entitled. But the nobill of the family is recognized in England nd given place In the official records of foreign titles. ACTRESS AND AUTHORESS. | Mrs. de la Pasture is an amateur actress of much renown, having played in the oldest and best known amateur | clubs, the Old Stagers at Canterbury and | the Windsor Strollers at Windsor. For |many years past she has played—and often written the play herself—in Lord and Lady Clifford’s annual theatricals at nt, | d they accepted the book, which was al- most instantly successful. ‘“Adam Grig- son,” “Catherine of Carafs” and *“Cor- | nelius” followed. The new novel “Peter’s | Mother' is an ultra-quiet narrative of a somewhat narrow, formal country life, containing little of excitement, but much | of human nature, and:that highest liter- ary art which conceals art. This book, like all of her others, was written first in the form of a comedy and then put into narrative form. Her married life has been passed alter- nately in Devonshire, London, and her beautiful home in the Wye Valley, where, not three miles from the ancient ruins of Tintern Abbey, yisited annually by hundreds of Americans, Llandogo Priory stands looking down upon the river and | the quiet village from which it takes its | name. Mrs. de la Pasture expresses a particu- |lar liking for America and Americans, and tells me that she desires above all | things to make her first journey across | the Atlantie. FORESTS WILL BE PRESERVED BY JAMES S. TYLER. CALL BUREAU, POST BUILDING, WASHINGTON, June 19.—President Roosevelt says that the forests of Cali- fornia will be preserved. He believes that the glant redwoods, that have lived through three thousand years of senti- nel duty on the slopes of the California hills and mountains, are absolutely necessary to the well-being of the agri- cultural development of the State, and the timber cutting tendency must stop. The President has not sounded the alarm too soon. A glance at the rec- ords of the Geological Surv shows that while there has not been any material dimunition of the rainfall in California during the past twenty years, there has been a noticeable shrinkage of the waters of California streams. The stretches of “burnt” country and “small timber” sections have increased by thousands upon thousands of acres and the under- growth’s ability to hold the seasons’ molsture has not been demonstrated. Tree destruction is not confined to the mere cutting of trees for lumber and fuel. Sheepmen and mining prospectors | have wrought much unnecessary dam- | age to forests. The young trees have not been protected and insufficient at- tention has.been given to reforesting. Now all will be different. The | Bureau of Forestry has taken up the study of reforesting ‘with vigor and to the important work the President has given a great deal of personal atten- tion. The result has been the creation of the Maury Mountain, Oregon, reserve and the Lassen Peak reserve. The lat- ter includes 900,000 acres and is in one |of the finest timber sections of the isute of California. Sugar pine and fir | 1s the principal growth, with occasion- | al patches of redwoods. The Lassen reserve has been created to preserve the water courses that will | be required in years to come to carry out | the various reclamation projects. Four big lumber concerns have been closing {In on the billions of feet of lumber in | the great Lassen district, but the new | reserve will check them. The Bureau of Forestry has been ex- perimenting in reforestration in the San ! Gabriel Mountains back of Pasadena. The results of the Government tests have been very gratifying and on the chap- | arral-covered slopes a fine, sturdy growth of young timber has sprung up which has greatly assisted in preventing the winter rain waters from being carried off too | rapidly. Many Southern California farm- |ers and several {irrigation companies | have sent letters to the bureau at Wash- ington asking that certain watersheds ad- jacent to Anaheim, Riverside and Santa Ana be reforested and the work is soon to be taken up. One of the most interesting experiments that has been made by the Bureau of Forestry is that with redwood seed. The problem of reforesting depleted redwood districts and of growing redwoods fn sec- tions where the trees have not lived was for a long time a puzzling one, but it is | believed that Ranger Lewis L. Davis of | the General Grant National Park, in { California, has solved it. Davis writes | that under certain favorable conditions | the redwood tree does reproduce itself. He tried the planting of redwood seed in various kinds of sofl and under widely varying climatic conditions, but the seed failed to germinate. He noticed that when a thin coating of ashes was spread over the ground the redwood seedlings seemed to flourish and he therefore tried the seeding of an extensive acreage with the sofl thus treated, with the result that a grove of 1400 young trees has devel- oped and is waxing stronger and strong- er each month. NEW CAMPAICY N COLORADD DENVER, June 19.—A joint confer- ence of members of the Democratic State Central Committee #nd other Democratic leaders met here to-day in purspance of a call issued some weeks ago by United States Senators Teller | and Patterson, former Governors Alva Adams and Charles H. Thomas and | other leading party men for the purpose | of securing an expression of opinion on the issues of the day as affecting the State of Colorado. | The conference instructed a commit- tee headed by Senator Patterson to pre- | pare an address to the people of Colo- rado. This was done and the conference { later heard it read and indorsed it as a | | platform of principles for the Colorado { Democracy. = This address, after referring to the | “conspiracy” which resulted in unseat- | ing Alva Adams frem the Governorship and installing a man “who had never been nominated for the place and for whom a single vote had not been cast,” warns the people that the corporations “have deliberately determined to rule the State regardless of what the major- | ity of legal voters may decide.” | The address further declares that | these corporations have already sejzed | the machinery of one political party and at strategic points have obtained the control of the machinery of another. For the purpose of alding in every | way to advance the wealth, power and station of the people the Democrats of Colorado, the address continues, are in hearty sympathy with President Roose- velt in his efforts to regulate railroad rates. Municipal ownership of all pub- lic utilities is warmly supported and | the claim that this is a local issue is | denied. ! Subsequently the State Central Com- mittee adopted a resolution to the ef- fect that the time was not yet ripe for; municipal ownership of public utilities. and that, any way, it was a question to be handled politically by city and coun- ty organizations. This is construed by many as a rebuke to those Democrats who are agitating municipal ownership in Denver. - —————— PRESIDENT AND MR. MOODY CONFER ON SANTA FE CASE Official Announcement May Be Made in Connection With Publication of Correspondence. WASHINGTON, June 19.—A confer- ence was held to-day between the President and Attorney General Moody with respect to the policy to be pur- sued in the Santa Fe rebate case, with which Secretary Morton is connected. At the conclusion of the confercnce Mr. Moody said he was not in a position yet to discuss the matter. The President has agreed with the Attorney General as to the publication of the detalls of the correspondence on the case, and it is expected he will sup- plement it with offictal announcement. ————— MORTON ORDERS INQUIRY INTO EQUITABLE AFFAIRS New Head of Life Assurance Compa: ‘Wants to Just How d Matters Stand. 3 NEW YORK, June 19.—A new important investigation of thz m:ll:": of the Equitable Life Assurance So- ciety is to be begun at once.

The application was made voluntarily by the firm, which is sald to be involved to the extent of between $70,000 and $80,000. The failure is attributed to the fact that the firm has recently favored the “‘bear’” side of the corn market. Quotations for corn have shown an upward tendency since the &'bull” deal in corn for May delivery was successfully completed. AKRON, Ohio, June 19.—There is much excitement here over the continued big “run” to-day ‘on the Second National | Bank. One of the depositors saw the | daughter of one of the officials of the | | bank withdraw her deposit and from this | | the rumor started that something was | | wrong. Five hundred thousand dollars | | has been withdrawn since Saturday af- | ternoon. The officials are not trying to | stop the “run,” but are paying out as the depositors call for their money. The bank has a surplus of $40,000 and a capital of $350,000. ZEAL OF AN ATHEIST ENRICHES A CHURCH Clergyman Paid With Land | for Listening to Unbe- liever’s Views. Special Dispatch to The Call. NEW HAVEN, Conn., June 19.— Thaddeus A. Peck, Stratford’s noted atheist, endeavored to convert Metho- dist Clergyman Raymond to his way of thinking, declaring his belief that he could convert the preacher if the lat- ter would only hear his argument. He offered to pay Mr. Raymond for the time spent in listening to him. The minister agreed to listen to Peck for eleven hours if the latter would convey to the urch a plat of land that he owned “and that was needed for church use. Peck consented, the contract was drawn up and Peck began his arglument. After -the conclusion the clergyman produced a receipt for eleven hours’ talk. The deed was signed on Satur- day, but the Rev. Mr. Raymond is not converted to atheism ——e—— WILL TRAVEL OLD TRAIL IN MODERN PULLMAN CAR Mormons Who Crossed Desert Half Century Ago to Be Guests of the Clark Road. SALT LAKE CITY, June 19.—By in- vitation of Senator W. A. Clark, presi- dent of the San Pedro, Los Angeles and Salt Lake Rallroad, the three surviving members of the Mormon band which in 1855 made the journey from Salt Lake to San Bernardino, Cal, by the way of the present townsite of Las | Vegas, Nev., will soon go over the trail again.

CALL BUREAU, POST BUILDING, WASHINGTON, June 19. — President Roosevelt, after considering a protest that the name of a frigate, which was twice captured by a British craft of equal size, has no place of honor on the American naval list, has directed that the midshipmen's practice bark Chesa- peake be known Lereafter as the Severn. Never again will the ill-fated name be fastened on an American warship. Captain Schroeder, the chief intelli- gence officer of the navy, recently ad- dressed to Secretary Morton a letter call- ing attention to the lack of honorable tradition in the name of Chesapeake for the vessel on which midshipmep at Ann- apolis receive their nautical instructions. He recited the fact that the frigate Chesapeake was stopped by the British man of war Leopard in 1807 at sea and accused of carrying four British desert- ers. In the fight which followed the Chesapeake was so impaired that she succeeded in firing only one gun before she was boarded and the deserters seized and carried away. Her commander, Com- modore Barron, was courtmartialed and suspended from the navy for five years. The Chesapeake was again covered with dishonor in 1813 when the British ship Shannon challenged her to go out- | side of Boston harbor. In the flgh(‘ which followed the gallant Lawrence fell exclaiming: “Don’t .give up the ship!” but the Chesapeake did surrender and was towed a prize to Halifax. TEAMSTERS MAKE A MOVE FOR PEACE Will Endeavor to Arrange a: Settlement With the Employers. CHICAGO, June 19.—Another effort is to be made by the teamsters to bring about a' settlement of the strike. At a meeting of the Teamsters’ Joint Coun- cil called to-night to consider the best tion of the trouble, it was decided to ap- point a committee which is to confer with the executive committee of the Inter- national Brotherhood of Teamsters and decide upon terms to be offered to the emplovers. The méeting between these two tommittees will be held to-morrow or Wednesday. President Shea of the Teamsters' Union declared to-night that he would not interfere in any manner with the work of either of the committees, and if they bring about a settlement of the strike, it will be binding upon the team- sters. The employers have repeatedly declared that they will hold no more conferences with the teamsters unless the men ap- pearing in the conference in behalf of the teamsters have full power to settle the strike. They have also declard that there can be no settlement unless the unions are prepared to accept the terms of the Employers’ Association. The situation is rapidly improving from the standpoint of the employers, and they have reached almost normal conditions in making deliv- eries of goods. PR IRON WORKERS MAY STRIKE. Demand New Wage Schedule to Go Into Effect on July 1. PITTSBURG, June 19.—Unless the officials of the American Sheet and Tin Plate Company within the next ten days notify the president of the Amal- gamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers that the company is ready to mect the wage question for the year beginning July 1, all of the union men employed by that company—about 5000 in number—will be called out on a strike.

Berner, its president, in the form of an address to the King and the Swedish peo- ple. The reply, while expressing the ut- most good will, adheres to the action tak- en by the Storthing In dissolving the union. The text of this reply will be pub- lished to-morrow. A great meeting of representatives of Swedish residents of Norway was held here to-day. It adopted an impressive address to King Oscar, requesting him to use every influence to secure a peaceful settlement with the view of maintaining the friendiy relation of all Scandinavian people. The address points out that Swedes residing in Norway enjoy the best treatment at the hands of the Norwegian people, and says that the vast interstate interests invoived demand an amicable adjustment of the differences between the two countries. It is believed here that an extraordi- nary session of the Riksdag, to be held Wednesday next, June 21, will take ac- tion looking to the prevention of a fur- ther rupture. 3 —_—————————— REGRETS THE ATTITUDE OF HUNGARIAN MAJORITY Emperor Francis Joseph Hopes a Better Understanding Can Be Arranged. BUDAPEST, Hungary, June 19.— Simultaneously with the appointment of the new Cabinet, Emperor Francis Joseph sent an autograph letter to Pre- mier Fejarvary regretting that he was unable to select a ministry from the majority, because the latter’s pro- gramme was unjustified and placing the destinies of the nation in the min- istry’s hands. While approving of the majority’'s proposals for interior ad- ministration, the Emperor declares he can accept the demands regarding the army only within certain limits. The letter concludes: “It would afford me great satisfac- tion if you could pave the way for an understanding on the lines indicated, thus furthering the appointment of a Cabinet from the majority.” ————— Preaident’s Cousin Weds.

Wallace, chief en- gineer of the canal zome, who sailed for the United States on June 15, was going home by order of Secretary Taft for the purpose of a conmsultation on important matters prior to the sailing of the Secre- tary for the Philippines, and that he was not likely to return to the isthmus until his annual report had been written. Since the departure of Wallace, how- ever, it has been said in influential eir- cles that he does not intend to return to the isthmus to resume his position as chief engineer, but that he has gone home to confer with Secretary Taft on the subject of his resignation. Shortly before he sailed Wallace was the recipient of a memorial from the heads of departments on behalf of the canal employes, expressing deep apprecia- tion of the benefits resuiting from the new schedule of hours and wages, and from the betterment in the general wel~ fare of all connected with the work on the canal. The fact that Wallace went homs ac- companied by his wife and his two sec- retaries seems in some quarters to lend credence to the rumor that he does not intend to return. —————————— KING EDWARD WELCOMES VISITORS FROM CANADA Large Delegation of Manufacturers From Dominion Pays Visit te the Mother Country.
