Jnlea Verne's Hero Memo. - Goubet, tbe famous French inventor of submarine craft, is designing a boat which he expects to send across the At lantic, fully half the voyage to be made under the surface.. Goubet is no dreamer. Expert and most practical. he first, In JSS5, created the little sub marine Goubet, whose original pattern weighed only one and a half tons. Gradually he improved the type.: The child of bis brain is tbe torpedo boat Gustave Zede, 159 feet long, the giantess of her kind, France's first ngnang surnuanne. ine Zede is so safe, ,so easily directed, that President Ixubet took a trip under water In her. France is building many like the Zede. for In submarine torpedo boats the sis ter republic thinks she sees the end of Britain's supremacy of the waves. , Now Goubet coldly, without emotion or.exaggeration, promises a submarine vessel that will traverse the thousands of miles between Brest and New York: that can be submerged whenever and as often as is desirable or necessary; that will pursue its way under the surface for at least half the sea Jour ney. Thus Captain Nemo's wonderful boat, the Nautilus, will become a real ity. .- Necessarily Goubet and the French government jealously guard the secrets of the construction of his submarine boat. Woe betide the stranger who tries to photograph so much as the tur ret of the Gustave Zede! Only the crew of each boat may enter her. The crew is closely watched on shore lest tucy should talk too much. France, rn t ju; 'astically hopeful that she will ri;!? under the wave, runs no chance V t may cost ber triumph.

Later on they will sub mit a report, and it ts quite probable that when congress reassembles a num ber of Important recommendations concerning Hawaiian affair will be sub mitted. The committee found a state of great commercial and industrial depression prevailing' in tbe Islands, caused, it la generally claimed, by the low price of sugar and tbe scarcity and high price of labor. , , ' .' ' Tbe Cost of Oeforestatloa. There la more than local Interest la the report of Henry Gannet, made pub-' lie through the United States geological survey, upon the deforestation of the state of Washington. The report showa that In nineteen counties of the state west of .the Cascade range 23,304 squure -miles were formerly covered with merchantable timber, of which 12 pet ceut has been cut, J7 per cent has been destroyed by fire and, the remain-dei-w still covered Mth standing tim ber, la Mr. Gannet's own words, "In less than a generation nearly one-third Tf tbe timber in one of the Richest tim- oer regions oi , mis conunexit nas oeen ; destroyed, ? and of tbat destruction much more than half has been caused by fire." In other words, nearly two years' supply of timber, -worth in money about $43,000,000, has been destroyed by Are. i , ' This report was made before the re cent terribly destructive forest fires In Washington, Oregon, Wyoming and Colorado, which have added material ly to the average destruction every year.: ;; The 'department of agriculture estimates that every year at least $23.00Q,000 worth of real property is destroyed, fully 10,000,000 acres burned over and fTR.OOO.OOO worth of young forest growths destroyed. Such figures as these ought to make a deep impression upon the public mind and awaken a keener public sen timent in favor of forest preservation. The property value destroyed js, how ever, not the only item in the annual cost of deforestation. - There must be taken into account the deterioration of tbe soil, the drying up of streams and water courses, tbe Increased exposure of farming regions to drought, burning winds and cyclones and the menace to public health. , Fossibly the good citi- Zen of New York or Ohio will be noth lng out of pocket by the destruction of the forests of Washington or Ore gon, but if be bas a due appreciation of the richness and greatness of bis coun try he ought not to view with Jildlf ference tbe devastation of any part of it Beach r Head Falls Away. Bencby head, with Its seven white cliffs of . varying height, called the Seven Sisters, says the London Times. Is a prominent and well known bead land on the south coast, the hlgbetf point being 550 feet above the level o high water. Unfortunately the cliff ir front of the lighthouse of late year has shown signs of Insecurity, which to 1S93 culminated In a very heavj fall, amounting. It Is said, to do lest- than 83.000 tons of chalk. Again in 1S90 another dislodgment occurred of an estimated quantity of 89,000 tons. By these serious downfalls the dis tance between the lighthouse tower and the cli.T edge was reduced from 100 to 70 feet, and there are not wani ng sijrcs that further disintegration of n vV.1t nr-y p -lorier or later take place.
