New York Herald, April 2X - Don Sebastian Lerdo de Tejada, ex-President of Mexico, died at ferty-five minutes after one o'clock yesterday afternoon at the Lenox, Thirteenth street and Fifth avenue. He had been sick about ten days, but up to Saturday night his condi tion was not considered particularly dangerous. His ailment was bron chitis and pleurisy. The ex-President himself feared that his end was near, and on Fri day, at his request, Mr. Ibonez, who has charge of his estate in Mexico, was telegraphed for and is now on ' his way here. During most of his illness Don Juan N. Navarro; the Mexican Consul General, was at hit .bedside. He was conscious up' to the time of his death, and passed off with apparently little suffering. The principal Mexican residents of the city soon heard of his death and visited the Lnox, and some of' them remained with the body last night. Ex-President Lerdo was a bache lor and leaves no family, and it is not known what disposition be has made of his property, as his will , is in the keeping of his agent in Mex ico. Until his agent arrives no ar rangement will be made for the dis posal of the body, but it will probably be placed in a receiving vault until it can be sent to Mexico. It was embalmed yesterday and the face looks as natural as life. I call ed upon Consul General Navarro last night and he said it would pro bably be a week before the body ; would be sent to Mexico. TO BE BURIED WITH HIGH HONOB.S. "I telegraphed," he said, "the Mexican Minister the fact of his death, and received an answer in which the Minister said that he would take action-at 'once to honor the memory of our great country man. I hare also telegraphed Pres ident Diaz, who belongs to the same political party as the deceased. He will be buried with high honors by the Mexican government, for he was one of our greatest men." The Consul General added that the ex-President bore a striking re semblance to the late Governor Til den,' and he once mistook Mr. Til den for the Mexican. , Ex-President Lerdo has lived here in retirement since 1876, when he left Mexico on account of political troubles. For the past ten years he has lived at the Lenox. He was a great student, and spent most of his time in study. He was frequently consulted as counsellor by Mexican residents and corporations having interests in Mexico. I ' He was born in Jalapa April 25, 1825. aud was educated in the Sem inary of Puebla and the College of San lldeionso, in the city oi Mexi co, lie wag educated for the church, but having" taken a dislike to the ecclesiastical profession be studied jurisprudence, and soon took high rank in his profession. In Decem ber, 1855, he was made a Judge of the Supreme Court, and in 1857, he was appointed by President Comon fort Minister of Foreign Affairs and assumed the presidency of a moder ate liberal Cabinet, but resigned the September following, as he was a supporter of the ner liberal consti tution and opposed the policy of the President. j ELECTED TO CONGRESS. After the advent of the Church party to power he joined the liberal administration of Juarez at Vera Cruz, and with him returned to Mexico in January, 1866. He was a member of Congress 1 duriag the sessions of 1861-2, and in August, 1861, in the extraordinary 'session of that body, he opposed the treaty that had been made for arranging the English debt. The failure of this treaty led to the downfall of the Zamacona Cabinet, and Lerdo was called by Juarez to form a new one, but he refused ; and after the form ation of the Doblado Ministry he continued to oppose the conclusion of treaties by the Executive without the approbation of Congress. He was appointed by Juarez to arrange a treaty of commerce and extradi tion with the United States, which was afterward of great use to his country in its struggle against for eign intervention. He was again a, member of Congress in 1862-3, and abandoning his opposition to the government earnestly advocated the concession of extraordinary powers in the unusual circumstances of that time. When the French troops were about to invade the capital andQthe government retired in Mav, 1863, the deceased accompanied the Pres ident. On September 2 Juarez ap pointed him Minister of Justice, and on September 11 Minister of Foreign Affairs. . ; He was a constant companion of the President until 1867, and counselled him on the expiration of his Presidential term, November 30, 1865, to issue a decree declaring his term to be extended until constitutional elections could be held. After the fall of Queretaro and the capture of Maximilian he was solicited to exert his influence over Juarez to spare the prisoner's life, but rsfnssd to interfere. After tha return cf tha roY2re:?at to ro m July, Lcr?, ri iuiuisier oi foreign Anairs, sus pended treaties with, those foreign nations that had failed in neutrality to Mexico, joined the intervention of recognized the imperial govern ment, but all subjects of these Pow ers that resided in Mexico were guaranteed full security. HE BECOMES PRESIDENT. In the elections of December, 1868, he resumed his portfolio. Du ring the elections of 1871! Congress declared Juarez re-elected and at the latter's death in July, 1872 Ler do, in virtue of his office, succeeded him. He issued a decree of amnes ty, and nearly all the chiefs that were in the rebellion against the government, includ ing General Por firio Diaz, made their; submission. The following November Lerdo whs re-elected with very little opposi tion, and he retained all the Juarez Cabinet. He did much toward de veloping railroads and telegraphs and having his country represented at the centennial at Philadelphia. In 1874 he sanctioned a law to es tablish a federal Senate and to send a commission to Asia to observe the transit of Venus. He was pro claimed a candidate for re-election in 1875, which act caused revolu-1 tionary movements in Mexico. These began with the "plan of Tuxtepec," January, 1876. Although the plan of Tuxtepec pronounced re-election illegal .Lerdo accepted the candidacy and Congress declared him elected President, but as there was doubt as to the validity of the vote the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court de clared the constitution! interrupted and retired to Guanajuato, pro claiming himself provisional 1 Presi dent. j LERDO'S FLIGHT. iThe Governor of Guanajuato rec ognized the Chief Justice, and meantime Diaz with an army ad vanced from the East!. After the government troops were defeated Lerdo fled with his Cabinet. The party were captured bi a! bandit, Peoquinto Huato, who j called him tself a partisan of Diaz and detained them for a ransom jof $ 30,000. Lerdo then fled to this city,' never to leave it alive. j Cleveland Declines an Office. Hew Tork Sun. f Lawyer Grover Cleveland formally declined yesterday to be a Commis sioner of the new High Bridge Park. Mr. Cleveland in a letter to Justice Patterson of the Supreme Court, who made the appointment, said that he did not think that he was sufficiently informed about the lo cality to accept so important a post.1 It is said that he has "other rea He sons for declining the place. wants to have this summer and fall entirely at his disposal. -He docs not wish to feel hampered by auy business outside of his law business. Things are slow with many lawyers in the summer, and Mr, Cleveland wants to be in shape fori leaving his desk for his fishing rod. He does not want to settle down to the steady grind before late in the fall. Old Homes are Best. If one runs over the list of per- sons known to him he few of more than forty in the houses in which finds very years old they were born. Of the twenty houses built more than fifty years ago nearest my own, only one is lived in by the family by which it was originally occupied, while most of j the others have had numerous successive own ers or tenants. Of my own friends uear my own age there are but two or three anywhere who live in the houses which their fath ers occupied before them This lack Ox hereditary homes homes of one family for more than one gen erationis a novel and significant feature of American society; In its effect on the disposition of the peo ple and on the quality of our civili zation it has not-received "the atten tion it deserves. . I The conditions which have brought about this state of things are obvious. The spirit of equality, and the practices, especially; in re gard to the distribution of property, that have resulted from it; the gen eral change in the standards of liv ing arising from the enormous de velopment of natural resources . of the country, aud the consequent un exampled diffusion of wealth and material comfort; the rapid settle ment of our immense territory, and the astonishing growth of our old as well as of our new cities, have been unfavorable to the existence of the hereditary home. Thra is searcelv a town in the inner sAttfod narts of the Northern States from which a considerable portion of its people has not :' gone out in the course of the past fifty years to seek ..residence - elsewhere. Attachment to the native soil, af fection for the home of one's youth, the claims of kindred; the bonds of social duty, have not proved strong enough to resist the allurements of hope, the fair promise of bettering fortune, and the love of adventure. The increasing ease and- the vast extension of means of communica tion between distant parts- of the country have' . promoted the move ment of the population.-From "The Lack of Old Homes in Amir- ic, by Prcl. uaanes'xuuo6.uui-wm, in tho lizfCsri FOREST FIRES. They Mean ESore Than a Her? t Nominal Loss. J. D. C. in AsheviUe Citizen. Mention in the News and Observ er of the 14th of the forest fires, coincident with high winds and dry weather, raging in the country to the west of Raleigh, at points along the Raleigh & Augusta Air Line and Carolina Central railroads, and other points in the eastern and mid dle section of this State, indicates an awakening of interest in a sub ject of very grave import.. Once the newspapers only referred to a f orest conflagration as a spectacle of picturesque splendor by njght, of impressive grandeur by day. Very rarely, if ever, did economic inter est 8 have consideration, or the de struction of the trees suggest the destruction of values. Now that the loss. from this source by accumu lation of annual ravage begins to be appreciated, the rapid thinning of the timber for commercial uses, and the clearing of ground for agricul tural purposes begins to be perceiv ed, the' diminution of the timber supply awakens a concern which ought long since to have anteda ted and anticipated the causes which now threaten the exhaustion of what ought to have been a constant source of private and public wealth. Legislation was very tardily invo ked, not so much for the protection of timber as of fences. No person is allowed to set fire to woods unless they be hi own, property, and he must give due notice of his inten tion; and wagoners, camping in the open air, in certain counties, are re quired by law to extinguish their camp fires before leaving. .But the habits of generations are stubborn, and carelessness or accident every year occasions losses which can nev er be repaired. Less than half a century ago it was the habit of. the people of the upper tier of the long leaf pine country every spring to set tire to the dead pine straw and old wire grass to force early pasturage through the woods for their sheep and cattle. The accumulation of combustible matter thus annually burned was small and the injury on the trees verysmall. Up to about 1845 the belief prevailed that the pines nearer the coast only were profitable for turpentine. Then it was found that the whole region was equally productive; and the whole of it was converted into tur pentine: plantations. Then it be came necessary to protect the boxed trees; for fire seizing upon large in flammable surfaces, not. only de stroyed the running crop, but also the trees themselves causing some times as in 1856, memorable for ex pensive forest fires. ,' j ; A combination of causes has. ma terially diminished the valuable for est area of North Carolina. .Statis tics bearing upon the existing pro portion of forest area are delusive, for all the land, except swamp land, not in cultivation is classed, as tim ber land. Observation proves a very large portion of that to have been burned over, culled or stripped of its most valuable trees, and a meagre residuum left for the coming gener ation. Yet the wasteful habit con tinues as if resources were as ex haustlesa as they appeared a centu ry ago. Especially is this the case in the west, where the forest stands as if it never could be removed. Yet the disappearance within present memory of the great forests in the Eastern and Northern States might warn us of the danger which threat ens this section, the only great storehouse remaining on the Atlan tic slope for certain valuable and in dispensable timbers. It will be un avoidable to meet the demand, yet in meeting it due prudence and foresight may be exercised so as to combine the interests of the present with the rights of the future in view. History is full of these preg nant warnings against the ripping up of the golden goose. It is not impossible to convert these richly clad mountains into the sterility and desolation . of Syria ; and the Is lands of the Mediterranean,' once forest clad, once abounding in full nnd sparkling streams, once glad with bountiful crops, once teeming with industrious population; now bare, parched and barren, still filled with people but half starved, pover ty stricken, eking out a miserable existence under a shadeless sky and a fiierce relentless sun. These lands lay in the same parallel, with climate much like ours, with natu ral conditions much the' same.? And the same causes in time may make our land like theirs.

WASHINGTON LETTER. Washington, April 19, 1889. To the Editor of The Lenoir Topic: t Chief Justice Fuller has announ ced that the United States Supreme Court would cease to hear arguments on the 28 inst aud adjourn from then until the 13 of May, and then adjonrn for the term. All the laws passed by the late Congress have been published in a book form by the State Department, and copies may be obtained for 55 cents each. ' Senator Wade Hampton is still here, and he says he does not expect to leave until Ex. Gov. Thompson, of South Carolina, is appointed a memberof the Civil Service Commis sion, an appointment which, he says, is bound to be made unless Harrison ignores the strongest endorsement ever given an applicant for a posi tion. "Cheap John" Wanamaker is be ing roundly abused by the 300 appli cants for positions as special agents of the Post Office Department, be cause be has sent all the applicants to the Civil Service Commissioners, and notified the applicants that they must stand a Civil-service examina tion. These positions are much sought after, and the impression had got out among the Republicans that no examination would be required. Owing to the funeral of the late John P. Usher, who was Secretary of the Interior from 1863 to 1866. that Department was closed yester-r day. This is a senseless and useless custom, and ie besides very costly to the Government. . i John Sherman had a candidate for Controller of the Currency, but he got left and the prize went to Ex Congressman Lacy, of Michigan. Verily those be "parlous" times for Ohio Republicans. i Another fat plum has been cap tured by a newspaper man. ; The fortunate individual is Robert P. Porter, editor of the New York Press who has been appointed Superinten dent of the Census. Harrison is certainly making himself solid with the Republican editors and is doubt less laying the wires for a renomina tion. Applications have been, made . to the Controller of- the Currency; for charters for several national banks in Oklohoma, and that official is much perplexed as to what should be done. The law requires applications to be on file one year before the char ter is granted, but this being a new country the applicants think an ex ception should be made in their favor. The question has been j re ferred to the Attorney General for an opinion. J Several years ago 1 the postoffice Department issued an order pro hibiting train employes or other trains other'than mail trains carry ing letters, packages etc.1 This or der was particularly hard on news papers, as it often prevented their receiving important correspondence and also prevented them from send ing out packages of papers. In re sponse to, general requests from publishers the order has been rescinded..- J. : !' ' In the Railway mail service it is almost as bad. ; The number of re movals in six weeks is over 500. Secretary Noble says every Jer caution has been taken in the Gov ernment to prevent lawlessness in Oklahoma and that the attempts of the alarmists to scare people away from the new territory are -absurd. The ex-Congressmen seem to have the call this' week. Mr. Hepburn, of Iowa, has been appointed Solici tor of the Treasury. It is reported that Mr. Harrison has stated that noL postmaster in the presidential class will be removed, without cause, until his commission expires. It is also said that he has decided that all commissions shall date from the date of confirmation. Both statements should be taken with a grain of allowance. The "nigger" still-waits for offi cial recognition from the adminis tration. But he is getting decidedly impatient. May he continue in the same condition. ; : ' After keeping the U. S. light house tender, Holly, tied up to the wharf here for three days, while two light-ships, which left their moorings in ( hesapeake Bay during the recent storm, are floating around endangering vessels, Mr. Harrison went aboard Monday for a pleasure sail down the Potomac. That's the Republican idea of protecting our commerce. Great on Statistics. KewYork World. Robert P. Porter, editor of the new Protection organ which was started in this city a year or more ago, has received his reward in the shape of an appointment as Super intendent of the Census. Mr. Porter has had considerable experience in this line. He joves statistics. He revels in mathematics, and he can manipulate the multiplication table so as tc prove by-it that the sum of I- all human prosperity and happiness is due to the benencent system oi Protection fostered by the manufac turers of New England.. Mr, Porter will have the disbursement of $6, 000,000 as editor of the census, and Trill tzjQ a E-lary civ 3,000 a year. The Hew British Minister. New York Herald, April 22. A heavy mist, concealing all ob jects at fifty yards distance, over hung the rivers and bay yesterday morning when the Cnnard steamer, Etruria, bearing among her passen gers Sir Julian Pauncefote, the new British Minister to the United States, showed her huge form off Quarantine, where I boarded her from the revenue cutter Chan dler. ' ! I found Sir Julian on the prome nade deck, where he was vainly try ing te get a glimpse at the country on which he was about to set foot for the first time. I had pictured to myself a man of stern presence, but when I saw his genial face, which bears refinement in every lin eament, and heard his cheery "Good .morning, sir; I'm glad to see you," my fears took flight at once. The new Minister is sixty years old, of sturdy build, slightly above medium height, with a full face though marked with the lines which, of thought, is yet expressive of the utmost good humor.. He has a firm mouth above a rather square though not massive chin, a straight nose and a pair of honest 'gray eyes. He wore yesterday a plain business suit, and if seen on Broadway would be taken for a prosperous . business man. "no politics." f ' W ell," said he laughingly, ex tending his hand, "I suppose you wish me to say something to the Herald. I am "glad to see one of its representatives, but you must ex cuse me for talking on political top ics. My appointment was some thing of a surprise to every one, I learn, both in this country and in Europe, but to know one more than myself. I was, as you are aware, the head Under Secretary of State in England, and my transfer from that office to the American mission was an action without precedent, though I believe, the appointment is regarded favorably both here and in England. "I have no doubt my experiences abroad were taken into considera tion. I was, as you know, at one time Attorney, General to the colony at Hong Kong and a member of the legislative and executive council there. Remaining there from 1865 to 1874. I was then made Chiefs Justice of the Supreme Court in the Leeward Islands. After a short j sojourn there I returned to Eng land to fill the appointment of As sistant Under Secretary of State in the Colonial 0 tlice, succeeding the present Lord Nuntsford, uow Co lonial S(.ci'tary of' State, and then Sir Henry llorktiid. After two years in the i olonial Office I was transfer red to the Foreign Office as Assis tant Under Secretary of State, suc ceeding to the permanent Under Secretaryship on the death of Lord Tenterden in 1882. I have been in the Foreign. Office for twelve years. "There was great uncertainty as to who would be selected for the American office, and as I said, the selection of myself caused some sur- prise. "But," added Sir Julian, now that I am here I can say that I am glad to come to America, for if my treatment by my 'American fellow voyagers is any criterion my recep tion in this country will leave noth ing to be desired. I shall try to do my duty, and more I cannot say. I like the open hearted, hospitality manifested by the American people and I feel assured that, although this is my first visit to the United States, I shall find myself most hap pily situated." What a Railway Superintendent has to do. The Superintendent of a -railway in this country who has, let us say, three hundred miles of road in bis charge, has perhaps as great a va riety of occupation, and as many different questions of importance depending upon his decision, as any other business or professional man m the community. Fully one half of his time will be spent out of doors looking after the physical condition of his track, masonry, bridges, stations, buildings of all kinds. Concerning the repair or the renewal of each he will have to pass judgment. He must know in timately every foot of bis track, and in cases of emergency or accident, know just what resources he can de pend upon, and how to make them most immediately useful. -He will visit the shops and 'round-houses frequently, and will know the con struction and daily . condition of ever locomotive, every passenger arTd baggage car. He will consult with his Master Mechanic, and of ten will decide which car or en gine shall and which shall not 'be taken in for. repair etc. He has to plan and organize the work of every yard, every station. He must know the . duties of each employee on his pay-rolls, and in struct all new men, or see that it is properly done. He mu8t keep, in cessant and vigilant watch on the movement of all trains, noting the slightest variation from . the sched ules which he has prepared,' and looking carefully into the causes therefor, so as to avoid its recur rence.: The first thing in the morn ing he is greeted with, a report giv ing the situation of business on the road, the events of the night,! move ment of trains and location and vol ume of freight to be handled. The last thing at night he gets a final re port of the location and movement of important trains; and he! never closes his eyes without thinking that perhaps the telephone will ring and i call him before dawn. During the day in his office he has reports to make out, requests to approve, a varied correspondence, not 'always agreeable, to answer. From! "The Freight-car Service" by Theodore Voorhees, in the May Scribner. The Cowboy's Ticket. San FranciflcD Chronicle. They were telling experiences the other night, and Colonel Grannis told one of his. He made the trip through the Southern country here just after the road had been opened The festive cowboy had just Tbegun to enjoy the sport of running the train in the rough region, and at one of the stations a formidable specimen of that tough human boar ded the car 8. The conductor came along punching the tickets, and this cowboy did not pay, any atten tion to him. -. At last the conductor laid his hand on the cowboy's shoulder and said, "Ticket, please." The cowboy turned in true cowboy style, pulled out his revclver and pointed it at the conductor. "Here's my ticket." The conductor walked on and punched everybody else's coupon. Then he disappeared. The j little incident had been forgotten by al most everybody on "the car. The cowboy was in a quiescent state and and the car was quite still when the conductor came in. He walked leisurely up the aisle and suddenly stopped before the cowboy, placed a great big knife dangerously contig-. nous to his vital part and saidJ qui etly, "liemme see that ticketagam. lhe cewboy paid his fare.
