LOCATION—South of Santa Fe Letter from Berkeley Berkeley, May 16, 1907. Editor Gazette:—Last evening the commencement season at the university was closed with the president’s reception to the graduating class. Everything seems to have combined to make the senior week an unusually happy occasion. The weather has been excellent, giving special interest to the events taking place in the open air. At the final university meeting of the year representative members of the graduating class were, in accordance with tradition, the speakers. They talked, each as he was moved, on the various lines of student activity. On Saturday, May 11th, the senior men gathered for their final banquet, while the senior women celebrated the close of their college course informally in Hearst hall. On Sunday afternoon the bacculaureate sermon was delivered to the graduating class by the Rev. Bradford Leavitt of the First Unitarian church of San Francisco. The exercises were conducted in Hearst hall, which was packed to the doors with students of the university and visitors from the vicinity. On Monday afternoon, for the first time in the history of the university, Greek games were held. Representatives of the four classes competed for a trophy cup presented by Professor W. E. Magee, in discus-throwing, running, wrestling, and the other Greek contests. The exercises were very appropriately held in the Greek theatre. The classes of 1904 and 1906 attended in a body led by a brass band and banners. In the evening the graduating class held its senior ball. On the morning of Tuesday, May 14, the senior men and women, the latter with white parasols, formed a long procession on the campus and marched in pilgrimage to the various buildings and points of interest on the campus. created towns of the area mining and suburbans.

In the evening the graduating class held its senior ball. On the morning of Tuesday, May 14, the senior men and women, the latter with white parasols, formed a long procession on the campus and marched in pilgrimage to the various buildings and points of interest on the campus. At each stopping place there was a speaker. Under the senior oaks, sacred to the memory of Professor Joseph LeConte, the president of the class, J. A. Hartley, delivered a brief address; he was followed at California hall by R. H. VanSant, jr.; at the Agricultural building by Ralph P. Merritt, president of the associated students; at the Library by Miss Cornelia Stratton, president of the Associated Women students; at the Chemistry building by Clyde P. Finger, who lent special interest to the occasion by performing some interesting chemical experiments in addition to speaking; at the Civil Engineering building by T. K. Sweesy, captain by the base ball team; at the new Hearst Memorial Mining building by George C. Jones, of boating fame; at the Mechanics building by H. M. Hall, editor of the Journal of Technology; at North hall by Professor Henry Morse Stephens, who is traditionally one of the pilgrimage speakers; at Hearst hall by Miss Ruth Salinger; at the new Senior hall, a structure of redwood logs given over to the uses of the senior men, by Julius C. Whitman of the football team. On Tuesday evening the Greek theatre was crowded to its utmost capacity by students and faculty and friends of the university eager to witness the presentation of the extravaganza by the senior class. The evening was warm enough to make an out-of-door occasion pleasant, and the extravaganza called “The Limit” was picturesquely presented on the stage. Wednesday was commencement day. At 1 o'clock an alumni luncheon was served under the oaks. President Wheeler, Governor Gillett, and Senator Lukens were guests of honor. The young ladies of the various sororities, dressed in white, waited on the tables. The governor expressed himself as enjoying the peace and quiet of the university campus as contrasted with the devoted to increasing population bringing in a desirable climate migrants, and materialism can be given by the people community if they will constitute self into individual communities by writing their friends and relative old homes. In line with the experience of the man said to be best informed on graft matters in the Unite commissioner of Immigration at Ellis Island, At a recent meeting in which were present many sentatives of organization ested in inducing settlers their localities, Mr. Wat closely questioned regarding sary elements to induce it to settle in special localitying of this Mr. Watchorn. “The two elements were into the settlement of grant are high wages and of continuous employment the information regarded things be corroborated pondence with friends hereica.

The young ladies of the various sororities, dressed in white, waited on the tables. The governor expressed himself as enjoying the peace and quiet of the university campus as contrasted with the turmoil of the city across the bay. In the afternoon the regular commencement exercises were held in the Greek theatre. Degrees were awarded to the graduates of the various colleges in Berkeley and of the professional schools in San Francisco. Governor Gillett delivered military commissions to about twenty students. In the evening President and Mrs. Wheeler received the members of the graduating class in Hearst hall and bade them farewell. This concluded one of the most successful and happy commencement seasons in the history of the university. New Map of California The new map of California, issued by the California Promotion Committee, is just off the press. It has been carried quite up to date and shows the many recent developments in railroads, steamship routes, pipe lines, etc. The past few years have witnessed rapid changes in the transportation facilities of the state, and it is a revelation to look over this map and note the many new lines of railroad, and the recently and towns of the agricultural, mining and suburban districts. colors have been used in the lag, and the physical relief of state is shown, in addition to other topographical features. size is 22x29 inches.

Securing New Settlers work of every commercial orion throughout California is led to increasing population by ing in a desirable class of imports, and material assistance given by the people of a comfort if they will constitute themto individual committees on action by writing letters to friends and relatives in their lines. In line with this idea is experience of the man who is be best informed on immi- Country's Timber Supply The lavish manner in which the United States has consumed the products of its forests and the rapidity with which our timber supply is melting away are wholly unappreciated by those who have never given the matter more than passing consideration. Familiar as all are with the use of wood for every purpose and in every industry, it is only when the various items are added that there begins to come a realization of the indispensable place the forests fill in the national economy. A conservative statement of the present yearly output of the forests shows a total of $1,075,000,000. The total quantity of wood cut to obtain the products listed in the table was not less than 20 billion cubic feet. Rapidly as the population of the United States has increased, the lumber consumption has increased still more rapidly. In round numbers, and allowing for incomplete reports, the lumber cut in 1880 was 18 billion feet; in 1890, 24 billion feet, and in 1900, 35 billion feet. The increase in population from 1880 to 1900 was 52 per cent, but in lumber cut 94 per cent. The United States is now using annually 400 board feet of lumber per capita, while the average for Europe is but 60 feet per capita. The total cut since 1880 amounts to more than 700 billion feet—a truly astonishing figure when we stop to consider it. This quantity of lumber would make a floor 1 inch thick over Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island and Delaware, or an area of 25,000 square miles. The northeastern states reached their relative maximum in 1870 and the Lake states in 1890. The southern states are undoubtedly near their maximum today, with about 35 per cent of the total lumber product, and the time of ascendancy of the Pacific States is to increasing population by ing in a desirable class of imports, and material assistance given by the people of a comif they will constitute themuto individual committees on action by writing letters to friends and relatives in their names. In line with this idea is experience of the man who is the best informed on immimium matters in the United States, Watchorn, United States missioner of Immigration, statat Ellis Island, New York. Recent meeting in New York, which were present many represents of organizations internating settlers to go to localities, Mr. Watchorn was questioned regarding necesments to induce immigrants to in special localites. Speakhis Mr. Watchorn said: Two elements which enter the settlement of the immirate high wages and certainty of employment; and that information regarding these be corroborated by correrence with friends here in Amerif foreigners in California write to their relatives and in Europe that wages are and that there is certainty of pous employment, a tremendle of immigration would imply set in toward California." Watchorn said that if this inton can reach New York from the sources, thousands of letters sent from there to Europe any will come on these reprensions alone. A farmer in California who needs here from some other or some other state will letters back to his old home, also send names, he will big work toward building state, and especially in bringmen and women who will the industrial question of suflabor supply for the agricul- French Wine-Makers Riot Paris, May 17.—When the subprefect of the department of Herault last night declared that disorders could not be permitted in the streets of Beziers, a mob of grape growers 10,000 strong, marched to the city hall, sacked it, pulled the furniture into the center of the square and burned it, attacked the police with knives and revolvers, wounding many, and attempted to seize the persons of the mayor and the Paris, May 17.—When the subprefect of the department of Herault last night declared that disorders could not be permitted in the streets of Beziers, a mob of grape growers 10,000 strong, marched to the city hall, sacked it, pulled the furniture into the center of the square and burned it, attacked the police with knives and revolvers, wounding many, and attempted to seize the persons of the mayor and the subprefect. The former swore that he would resign June 10 if the growers did not receive satisfaction by that time. This is a typical instance of what is happening in different districts throughout the south of France, where conditions have reached such a point that whole towns and villages have been reduced to beggary through the impossibility of selling their wines. The fraudulent manufacture on a wholesale scale of imitation wine by Paris laboratories, the diminishing English and American demand and the increasing quantity of California wines reshipped as French, constitute the main grievances of the growers. Troops are being sent to different parts of the south, but the government's promises to take the matter up immediately, are exercising a calming influence. It is expected that a thorough inquiry will uncover fraud on a scale to which even France is unaccustomed. Farmers who are raising wheat at fifty cents a bushel ought to be able to get some reflex consolation out of the fact that it is selling for a dollar a bushel on the Chicago Exchange.
