Higgs, s.i id ho was too ill to testify, mid the lawyer added that anything Dr. Doly ciiiild say us to his general administration or in reply to specific, charges had aln-ady lioeti covered In the testimony leaid by 'Commissioner Charles X. Iliilg.fr. Dr Doty returned on Tuesday from a fow days rest and consultation with Dr. Iliggs in the Adirondack.

Mr. Hittlo had written down tho reasons whv tho Health Ofllcer of the Port could not bo witness, but Judge Itnlgor refused to admit tho stutomeut into the record. Wither would liulger admit this telegram from Dr. Iliggs: Dr. Dotv Is not In my opinion in fit physical condition to In any legal proceeding's as a result of the numerous re-epotislblllties Involved In the discharge of his onicim duties during the thieo months becnile of the Imminent danger of tha admission of Asiatic cholera at the port of New York, at the extreme annoiancoand anxiety resulting from the Investigations of Oimrantltie administration at such a time, nnd the loss of sleep.

"It may be th it the law governing thes fees Is defective," Commissioner Bulgor said, "but if the law is all right, then tho fault lies with tho man In charge of the job." Oeorco II.

WHY NOT TRY LUMBERING SO BETTEIt BVSISESS, SAYS A TEXAS MAS WHO'S IS IT, t'utnvrr I4ini1 In the South the Brt In vfitmrnl for a Vonng Man Future Ilrlght, hut Politics (Tend the Preirnt, In J. II, Klrhj's Opinion, John II.

Klrby of Houston, president of the Klrby Lumber Company, a 110,000,000 concern that operates fourteen sawmills in eastern Texas, maintains 280 miles of railroad in connection with them and employs 6,000 men, says that the lumber business still offers as fine opportunities for young men as it ever did, He said yesterday that lumber land in tha South that had been cut over wan one of the lcst Investments he knew of nnd was bound, under care and because of the Increased demand for Imrlher and the diminishing supply, to develop Into valuable proporty Mr. Kirby. who Is 10 years old and still very young, started his business career witli nothing except a wife and some furniture that his parents and her mother had given them. His father had to liorrow Mo to pay for eleven months schooling for him. Then he got married and found a job as tax colloctor.

For two years he studied law in his spare time, and then he was so lucky as to get a case from a Boston concern that had invested a lot of money In hardwood land in that part of the country. Mr. Klrby won the case for his cllenta, but noticing that they were losing money on their hardwood he advised them to purchase yollow pine land. They turned his letter over to a man who had no money himself but who was able to persuade somo of his wealthy Harvard chums to go into the business, and then began the timber business so far as Mr. Kirby was concerned.

"Texas," said Mr. Kirby yesterday, 'has more standing yellow pine than any other State in the Union except Louisiana, though it Is usually regarded as a prairie State. "Up to ten years ago the Federal and State Governments carried the timber supply and every lumberman built his mill where he pleasod, knowing the supply at hand could keep him going. Capitalists also held large areas of timber. Nowadays practically all the timber In the South is owned by mill owners.

For this reason we find large capitalizations, it takes an enormous amount of money to carry on a lumber business. A ton years supply of timber for a small mill requires the investment of something like 11,000,000. "There is very little replanting done in Texus, hut the Forestry Bureau is discussing the subject. The land Is owned by individuals for the most part, and nobody is strong enough to carry on practical forestry and wait for futuro results. Our general market Is the country between Buffalo and Denver, though wo do ship by rail to New York, and of course send to Mexico, tho West Indies, South America, Germany, t'ng-land unit France.

"We haven't had a return of normal conditions in thn lumber business since the panic of It)7. There is no industry in the country of which I have any information that has enjoyed full prosperity since then except agriculture or something that depends on agiiculiure. "We lumbermen shall exist, and that is nil, until tho return of normal conditions, and it is hard to expect normal conditions on tho eve of a campaign. I am by nature an optimist, hut I cannot see anything very promising in nn industrial way in tlie near future. If linosovelt nnd tho Insurgents are potent in tho making ot the ltepuhlican platform next year they are going to put Taft on a radical plattorm, by which if he should ncceiit he would be bound If the Bryan-Ites hold the balance of power In tho national Democratic convention not only will tho Democratic candidate but the platform be radical.

That would mean that both parties would keep up a howl that human rights are tx-ing subordinated to property rights, whereas there are no such things as property rights excopt as they relate to man. "There Is no better investment to-day than cut over lands, for one reason because if properly cared for nnd kept free of fires they can be made to viela good timber in a very few years. 'Ordinarily when land is cut over not more than a third of the trees is cut down. Many of those left need only a few years growth to make them marketable. To-day the lumler product of the country amounts to a year, nnd il is all consumed.

Within five years our production at present prices will have dwindled to even allowing for the maximum in Pacific coast production. "In spite of the replacement of wood in construction by concrete and other things the demand for lumber steadily Increases. If a young man has any lent for forestry or there is no better wny to start him out In business than to buy cut over land anywhere in the South for him and let him take care of It. You can got nny quantity of such land Tor 110 an acre, and in some places for less," so.ono paiit time rvrn.s. Increase of I ft, (MM) Otrr Last Spring Is KM Im at nt for This Fall, Tho number of ptipils that aro to have only half day In school will bo considerably Increased when tho public schools open on Monday, September 11.

The number has been increasing for two years, after having been nearly wiped out in all parts of tho city except Brooklyn and Queens. When the schools closed for tho summer there were pupils on part time II was estimated yesterday that tho number next month would bo nearly 80,000, The Inck of school accommodations is said to bo duo to the stoppago of building in 1008, when the Board of F.stimate ceased appropriating money because there was doubt as to the publlo debt limit.

30. Republican Stato Chairman Leo Is very sorry that President Toft pitched into the insurgents in his reoont speech, beoause he says his utterances may hurt the party in this State. "I don't want to be put In the attitude of criticising President Taft," said Sir. Lee. "That would bo presumptuous, But I feel that his speech was unfortunate and wish it had not been made.

"There aro insurgents in Indiana. We wont them and all other Republicans to Join together for Republican success in Indiana.

Tho party stayed aboard for breakfast and came ashore later in the morning, The yacht met had weather coming up tho Sound on Tuesday night.

Tho rain that has prevailed throughout the trip didn't bother the party much, as they spent most of their time ashore at Newport. POETICAL DECIS10S. Holmes' Eulogy of Violins quoted by CltyConrt smith, Oliver Wendell Holmes's eulogy of rare violins was quoted yesterday by City Court Justice Smith in his decision affecting a Stradlvariun violin owned by Ernst Httszar, leader of tho orchestra at the Cafe Boulevard, which thn violinist pleaded was exempt from seizure by a receivr appointed In supplementary proceedings because it is necessary to him in earning his livelihood and because in Its present condition it is worth less than 1100. Hussar when he was examined in supplementary proceedings said that the only property he has is tho violin and testified that it in a genuine Strndlvarius and worth 11,005. Tho judgment creditor then had a recolver appointed, but Httszar wouldn't turn It over.

Justice Smith was asked to punish llusr.ar for contempt. In opposition nusr.ar said ho didn't understand the quest ion when ho answered hat the violin is worth 11.005. Hot bought he had been asked what the value of thn violin was to him and he named a high flguro because It was his means of livelihood. He said that tho violin is rnally only worth 178. Tho violin had been pawned in a Park row shop for tno by Sandor Sr.alay, the owner, nnd Hilszar gave him $20 for the tloket and another violin worth SIS.

In his decision Justice Smith said he was not Impressed with Huszar's affidavit, wh'ch changes tho testimony he gave in supplementary proceedings, and is inclined to believe that thn violinist understood the questions rightly tho first time. The court concludes that Huszar la not entitled to have the violin exempted tinleea ita value ia really worth less than I'M) and appoints referee to take testimony as to the value. Says the court: My view would be the same even if the debtor possessed tin; rare ability of Arcan-geloCorelll, Nlcolo Paganlnl, Camllio Pivorl, Louis Bpohr, Joseph Joachim and Ole Bull, The question which now remains to he de termined Is what Is the value of thU Strndlvarius, which tha poet Oliver Wendell Holme euloglr.es as follows: Violins too. The sweet old A mat the dlvloe Stradivari: played on by aged maestro ustll the bow hand lost Its power and the flying fingers stiffened. Bequeathed to the passionate young enthusiast, who made It whimper hU hidden love and cry his Inarticulate longings and scream his untold agonies and wall his monotonous despair.

Pasted from his dying hand to the cold virtuoso, who let It slumber In II osae for a generation until, when his hoard was broken up, It came forth once more and rode the stormy symphonies of royal orchestra beneath thn rushing bow of their stormy lord and leader. Into lonely prisons with Improvident artists. into convents from which arose, dar and night, the holy hymns with which Its tones were blended, and back again to orgies, In which It learned to howl and laugh as If re Ion of devlla were sent up In It. then again to the gentle dilettante, who calmed It down with easy melodies until it answered lilm softlv, as In the days of the old nnd so given Into our hand'. Its pores all full of music, stained like thn meerschaum throudi and through with the concentrated hue and sweetness of all harmonies which have kindled and faded on Its strings.
