FORESTS DESTROYED Operations of Peculiar Pest Control of Alarm New York, May 16.—A strange sease has broken out among trees of the east. Whole forests have been devastated. More than 20,000 trees in Forest park, Blynn, have been destroyed since opening of spring by a peculiar sease. Attaches of the state bureau of labor and statistics are making preparations to begin gathering data regarding the Japanese in California. Work was started Monday and is expected to occupy several months. It was provided for by the act of the last legislature which appropriated $10,000 for the purpose. Every employer of Japanese in California will be given blanks on which he will be required to fill out a complete list of the Japanese in his employ. He will also be asked for information concerning wages, with and without board, the nature of the work the Japanese are doing, and whether they are all employed under contract. The purpose of this investigation is to demonstrate the necessity of further rsetrictive legislation. YET HE WISHED HIM WELL "Between emotionalism and formalism in religion," says a Washington clergyman, "there is a golden mean—a reflection that came to me recently upon the conclusion of my remarks to a colored congregation in Richmond. "I had invited air aged deacon to offer prayer. 'O, Lord,' prayed he, 'gib dis pore brudder de eye of de eagle, dat he spy out sin afar off. Glue his hands to de gospel plow. Tie his tongue to de line of truf. Nail his yere to de gospel pole. Bow his head 'way down between his knees. O Lord, an' fix his knees way down in some lonesome, dark and narrer valley, where prayer is much wanted to be made. 'Noint him wif de kerosene of salvashun, an' set him on fire!'"

Rieber, dean of the summer school at the University of California, that a series of lectures on Art will be a feature of the summer session at the state university this year. The services of Frederick Mortimer Clapp of Florence, Italy, have been secured and the courses in art as planned by the lecturer should be of great educational and esthetic importance. Nothing of like scope has been hitherto attempted at Berkeley and it is confidently expected that the announcement will arouse widespread interest among art students and art lovers around the bay and throughout the state. The courses arranged for consist of daily lectures giving a comprehensive survey of Italian art through the centuries, and a series of lectures of a more popular character which will be given on certain afternoons and evenings throughout the session.

Berkeley aim it is confidently expected that the announcement will arouse widespread interest among art students and art lovers around the bay and throughout the state. The courses arranged for consist of daily lectures giving a comprehensive survey of Italian art through the centuries, and a series of lectures of a more popular character which will be given on certain afternoons and evenings throughout the session. All the lectures will be copiously illustrated with lantern slides. Mr. Clapp's training during a long residence abroad has supplied him with a splendid equipment of knowledge in his subject which, combined with scholarship of a high order and unusual temperamental gifts, enables him to bring to his lectures high qualities of authority and charm that should give them a quite uncommon value. He has a remarkably magnetic manner on the platform and imports into his lectures a prose style of great refinement and brilliancy. His lectures may also be expected to differ in one important particular from most lectures on art. They will be distinctly more than descriptive and historical accounts of Italian painters and painting. Mr. Clapp will address his subject as a close student of the influences active in the development of Italian art and will offer much in the way of analysis and interpretation based on personal observation and research. His lectures may very properly be considered as an important contribution to art criticism. If you use my ice once you will use no other. W. E. Duckworth. V.
