Sweet Gum Timber.

Pacific RurGl Press.
The diminishing supply of black
walnut for cabinet work and cars
building purposes, makes it highly
desirable that its place should be
made good by other kinds of hard
wood not hitherto used. Many in
quiries are made as to the capabilities
OF sweet gum for this purpose~-a
kind of timber which is quite ALBUMS
dant in some Of the Southern States.
1t is strong, close.grained. has hand
some color, is easily worked and
holds nail well, but has an inveter-
ate tendency to spring and warp, so
much so, In fact, that if used for cot
fins, it would, to borrow the express
sion OF dealer, "twist itself right
out OF the ground, corpse and all. -"
1t is said to give good satisfaction,
however. where it has been worked
narrow and well fastened. Any one
who can discover a method OF pre-
paratory treatment that will over
come this difficulty, has a fortune
within his grasp There is all im>
mense waiting market for the tim.
Der, in case it can be made available
tor the same general uses as black
walnut A writer in the North-
acester7o Lunabernaar, who has been
in the lumber business tor many
years. says he has used it both for
framing and finishing and finds that
it does we'll in a twelve years test,
although it is only the old, well.ma.
tured trees that turn out good fin
ishing lumber. These trees can b.
distinguished by tbeir scaly bark.
The older the tree the less is the la
bility to warp, and the better the
color; but lumber cut from young
smooth-barked trees will warp and
Fpriug badly.

Alta chment of Wild Animals to Men.


 My first acquaintance with wild animals
 dates from the winter of 1S3G37, when Van
 Aken's mepagerie had their winter quarters
 in Tubingen, Germany. A fine leopard used
 to enjoy his siesta in the afternoon, and
 slept quietly in his cage like the other carni-
 vora. Being a. daily guest, one day l ven
 tured to stroke quietly and cautiously the
 back of the leopard, who was lying against
 the bars. This caused him to turn around
 to look at the person who had dared to inter-
 rupt his slumbers. My friendly advance
 ment, with few pacifying words, seemed to
 please him, for he lowered his head against the bars and rubbed it and the rest of his body against them, which I interpreted as an encouragement to pat him again. Then began to scratch his head. the leopard push ing himself forward, in order that my hand could also offer the same caress to the neck and back. When I reached the tail he let it glide through my hand, approaching again with his head and repeating the sport. In this way our friendship was sealed, and henceforth the leopard watched the entrance door, becoming restless as soon as appear ed, showing his joy by hurrying to and fro in his cage and by friendly sniffies call ing for my caresses. However, he had been tamedf or long time, and Mir. Van Aiken sometimes set him at liberty ln the evenin, g when no visitors were present. One even ing when I entered the menagerle, the animal, being at that moment free and re- spending toahe caresses of Mir. Van Aiken, rushed with @ few bounds towards me, and jumping up at me, rested his fore paws on my chest his hot breath mingled with mine, if that had not come to stop at the unex- pected sight Mir Van Aiken, running to my assistance, helped me to regain my com posture, and I stroked the head and back of the splendid animal which now, catllke, wound himself between my legs, 1 mean while explaining to the astonlshed owner about our intimacy.
 Since the Geological Garden has been opened here have witnessed similar exam pies. One time tickled the head and neck of spotted hyena with my cane, and he placed himself against the bars of the cage with a peculiar, smiling look, encouraging me to extend the scratching to the sides of his body. The hyena grew friendller the harder I rubbed, and when I took away my cane he turned himself around in order to offer the other side. Later, after further acquaintance, | used my hand instead of the
 cane when I could pull the animal by leg or by the tail toward the bars and the often
 CT bothered him, rubbing and pulling, the
 friendlier the expression about his mouth
 grew and the oftener he bit himself ln
 his fore leg, as if he wanted to say Look
 here it does not hurt, even If l should get
 your hand between my teeth" Playfully he
 ran about in the cage, rolling himself then
 crying and laughing with pleasure; now Of
 fering the head or ears, now the snout or
 foot, so that I could seize it. One of my
 aequaintances slapped me on my back one
 day when playing with the hyena as would

An Explosion.

Horace Tripp, an employe at the Peck, Stowe & Wilcox rolling mill, has been in the habit, occasionally, of throwing bits of wet metal into the molten mass within the fur mace to let the idlers that usually hang around the door see the spluttering. Tuesday noon he had another exhibition and an explosion occurred which was heard several blocks away, the hot molten metal being thrown in- to his face, burning him so terribly that it is feared his eyesight is entirely destroyed. The clothing of little girl standing on the sidewalk was also set on fire by the burning blast. The people rushed from all quarters to the scene thinking that boiler had burst. Mir. Tripps scientific show is now closed for the season. Dr. Geo. L. Beardsley rendered the necessary surgical attention. - VoIley Se1o' tj7ae2
