called upon to see a large sugar maple
tree that was supposed to have been
destroyed by a leak of the city gas main

that the tree died, literally, from sun

servers of trees are unable to see when
anything is out of the common run of
things, and consequently note that
something is going wrong. This sugar
maple had been planted on the street
probably a quarter of a century ago,
and was about four feet in circum

exceedingly;warm spell came it was lm- |
possible folf these limited ducts to sup-,

large surface offoliage, and the tree,
therefore, literally died from inability
to furnish the moisture required for
transpiration. It may always be taken
for granted that when the trunk of a
tree, naturally* cylindrical, takes an,

beneath the bark, ind an examination
should at once betnade. The flatter

| MYSTERY OP A MAINE ISLAND.
I A Hermit Englishmen Who Ended His
Misery by Catting His Throat.
“Some years ago, up at North Haven
Island, on the Maine coast,” Bald a
New Yorker, “I came across a mystery
that haunts me still. A bare rocky
point juts out Into the sea on one side
of the Island, and the first year that
I visited the place there was a rude
cabin on the rock. Having, gone out
there from curiosity one day, I found
a man in shameful rags trying out'the
oil from the refuse of a flBh-banning
factory. When I came to .-examine the
man his appearance astonished me. He
was an extremely handsome, well-made
Englishman, of forty or thereabouts.
His hands, soiled with the materially
worked In, were small and well-shaped.
When I tried to draw him into conver
sation, he first answered In monosylla
bles, and was almost sulky in his re
serve. He gradually thawed, however,
and I found that he spoke rare and
beautiful English, and that of a well
bred and well-read man. Glancing Into
.the door of his cabin, I could see per1
haps a score of well-thumbed volumes
In library binding. His reserve was
such that I could not ask-htm about
himself, but I left the Island /deeply
interested hi him." V \
“I turned up at North Haven the
next year, and one of the earliest things
I did was to go out to the point In
search of my acquaintance. The rock
was bare again, and there was no trace
of him and his cottage. I asked about
him of some persons I met on the islv
and, and here Is what I learned; He
had come, to- the place mysteriously
some years before, having been dropped
by a schooner. He found work at the
fish cannery, but later quit the place,
built 1.1s cabin on the rock, supplied
hlmseif,-withstood chiefly by fishing,
and obtained from the factory^, the
privilege of trying oil from the rettfse.
From the products he obtained a Jfittle
ready money for, tobacco and other
luxuries. At some time between* ipy
two -visits his cabin was discovered! tb
be on fire late one night, and, hurririjtk
down, his neighbors sjtw hjm eiqWati

An XSactlTe Dtvlct tin Sava Buildings from
Dnutrnattta kj n tpfwda| Ita.
Ai eSwUn devIci ter the proteettos
of buildings from fires In adjaoent
structures has been successfully tested
In Boston. The Idea worked out in the
apparatus is to maintain a sheet ol
water between the fire and the building
to be protected. This Is done by plac
ing on every open side of the building
near the top a line of perforated piping
for carrying the water. The complete
apparatus const ts of a five-inch stand
pipe. extending over the upper story,
From It runs another pipe around the
slides and front, from two and one-hall
to four inches In diameter. On the
front are three revolving sprinklers,
and one Is placed at each exposed side,
in the center. The arms are of bronse
metal, slightly curved. At each end ol
the arms Is a ball nossle, such as is
used by fire departments on regulai
hose lines. At the Boston test a fire
department steamer furnished the pow
er, and for about fifteen minutes poured
through the sprinkler a delivery ol
1,000 ’-gallons a minute, completely
drenching the' walls, and keeping a
continuous sheet of’water from top to
bottom. „ ,s/• ,
. A New Rapid-Crowing Bow.
M.de Vllman, says 6osmos, baa pro
duced a new rose, distinguished for
marvellous rapidity of grbwth. The
blossom measures not more than forty
to fifty centimetres in diameter, and la
a cross between a Japanese variety and
a hybrid perpetual rose. The bush
bears roses all Bummer, single, double,
and semi-double, and they have the
form of pom-ponS, and tend to grow
in clusters. The most striking thing
about the new. rose, Is its astounding
a|f»tdijty of growth. Plants from seeds
-•oten- in the middle of,January may
be ooUttteu upon to blossom by the mld
41* of April. Even more remarkable
wap the development of two plants from
aapds sown on March 1 of this year.
thtP 6f these began to blossom March

ANAUTHOR’8 PSEUDONYM.
^*^'Whi5rOotH« Well-Known
; : ; ««* •*>
“The Duchess” Is tbe pseudonym ot
Mrs. Margaret Hungerford, an Irish
lady now residing in Tendon. Her
name by her first marriage was Argles.
Mr. Argles was convicted ot forgery
shortly after the wedding and was sent
to Jail. His wife, thrown upon her own
resources, turned in despair to liters*
tore. "Phyllis” was theftrst produc
tion of her pen. She found a publisher
for it, and it madena great) hit. It will
be remembered that the hero « “Pl|yl
bp" Is named Mermadakf’ sad is called
by the heroine Duke. Hence the hero
toe herself, who is supposed to write
her autobiography, becomes “The
Duchess.” This is the literary genesis
of the pseudonym, whose use in Mrs.
Hungerford’a title-pageala.^he device
of her American andltft of hef English
publishers. But it gseihs .that in real
life Mrs. HungerfOrd has been humor
ously known as the Duchess. In a re
cent letter to' an American fintend she
gives the following story of how this
title originated: “As to the fjrlgin of
my nom de plume, there 1b jpgit very
much to say about It. Many xeftxs ago,'
when engaged upon my lint novel,
'Phyllis,’ I happened to attend an ‘at
: home’ at the house of one of my Inti
mate friends. As I was about to enter
the reception-room tty host saw me and
came forward. He Waved the footman
back and announced me to the gueBts
as her Grace the Duchess. Very solemn
ly he said it, and, being very well
. known to each other, the laugh was
universal. Then .somebody else took
up the .plot and said the title Well be

MMnrled in Jail. 4
Tennessee papers are telling et a ro
mantic marriage at Memphis a few days
ago, where, In order to be safe from the
Interference of the objecting father of
the bride, the couple were married in
the county Jail, the jailer being a friend
of the bridegroom, and agreeing to keep
the troublesome parent outside until all
Was over. But the point about the
case that is apt to strike a non-resident
of Tennessee as most notabler-lt is
merely mentioned incidently there—Is
that a prisoner awaiting trial for as
sault and battery aeted as best man,
going from the jail to the county court
with the jallef to get the license; sup
porting the bridegroom during the cere
mony in the jeiler’e parlor; giving
adray the bride, and performing «thar
functions that might seem strange in a
prisoner not so favorably situated as
one In a Tennessee jail. ~

ONE YEAR OP eO-OPBRATlON.v
Their Motto Is “57u2i«*l »u I*fcIIcV£j Not
Combined to Injure.”
’ The experiment of organizing a so
ciety on the co-operative plan in Knox
ville and Allentown is now a year old.
The other night the first anniversary,
of the Integral Co-operative associa
tion, composed of people in that com
munity, waB celebrated with an en
tertainment in the Allentown. Turner
hall. While the association has a mem-,
bership of only -123, there were 700 peo
ple at the celebration. The programme'
consisted principally of vocal and in
strumental music by good local talent.
President J. Edward Chesley made a
| speech, in which he told of the progress
[ the movement had made. Mr. Chesley
is an enthusiast, who believes the world
is slowly but surely resolving itself in
to one mighty social organization, In,
which the Golden Rule will be univer
sally practiced, and in which everybody
will buy groceries at one common sup
ply house at cost. During his talk the
president called attention to a large
streamer stretched across the hall, on
which was.painted this motto: “United
to Relieve; Not Combined to injure.”
In fact, this sentiment was the keynote
of his short speech. He declared that
the "old boat of competition is sinking,
and the lifeboat of co - oper
ation is coming to the res
cue.” ♦■'He' explained the value of
co-operative ? effort, as illustrated by
the grocery owned and conducted by
the association at 48 Washington ave
nue, Thirty-flrst ward. He said that
all the storerooms now occupied by,
stores in.* excess of those absolutely
necessary to supply the people wds a
waste of rent. His theory is that all
profit made by the. stores which the
community could get along without is a'
species of robbery, and that the patrons
are the people robbed. In connection
with the printed, programme was a
statement of the condition of the eo-op
eratlye igrocery. From these figures if
would appear that the weekly sales ore
$385, and that there has been a gain in
the assets of the grocery of $415.42 since
it has been running. The balance sheet
shows that the store invoices $1,022.39
in merchandise and $484.30 in fixtures,
with $134.79 cash on hand. The Bel
lamy association, which is an out
growth of the -Integral .association,
now owns a toby factory and employs
sixteen people.—New York Sun.
MINKS IN AN ODD BATTLE.
the/ Fought Each Other Viciously In
the Water and Oat.
An unusual battle was witnessed at
Greenwood lake on Wednesday by Mr.
Silas Pickering, of Newark, and old
Steve Garrison, the veteran guide, says
New York Bun. Steve was rowing, and
SI was catching frogB for bass along the
east shore of the lake, a. short dis
tance below the Brandon house. Sud
denly they heard a remarkable squeal
ing, and as they turned a point of rocks
they Baw on the shore of a little cove
two full-grown minks in combat. The
usually shy animals were 30 busy that
they paid no attention to the approach
of the boat, and Steve rowed up to
within fifteen feet of them. . The
minks’ seemed each to be fighting for
a throathold, and the way they sparred
and scratched was highly interesting.
Finally, one caught the other by the
l?pck, and they rolled from the rock
Into the water,‘'Where they continued to
fight as energetically as on the shore.
Boon they emerged, separately, but
clinched as soon as they were on the
rock, and the fight waged sharper than
ever. Both minks squealed almost con
tinuously as they snapped and scratched
at each other. Three times they
pitched from the sloping rock into .the
water and crawled out to renew the
fight ashore, but after another dip only
one came up. The other had evidently
tired of the fight and sneaked away
under water. The victor crept upon
the rock, and not seeing his adversary,
began to strut to and fro as. if much
pleased with himself. Suddenly he
caught sight of Pickering’s striped blaz
er and fled into the bushes.
