received for ten acres purchased ten
years ago in Logan valley, Neb., and
planted with black walnuts, by Col.
Van. He gave s1.25 per acre for the
land, and after it was handsomely COW
cred with a dense growth of thrifty
black walnuts, 10 years old, he sold the
ten acres for $4,000. The time will
certainly come when all this timber will
be wanted at an advanced and hand
some price, and there is nothing for
which there will be more extensive de-
mand than the best large second-growth
selected timber. Judging from the
way in which our native forests are
disappearing, the market will not be
glutted.

regarding the harm done. It appears
that the circumstances were peculiar.
The disasters occurred poar Fort do

narrow, rocky gorge, bounded on one
side by lofty spur of tho Jura aud on
tho other by the precipico OF Mt.
Vuache. Along ledge just above the
stream runs railway, which tunnels
several Jutting spurs that rise abruptly
from the waters brink. One morning
early this month great mass of earth
fell from tho mountain directly over n
tunnel. while later the tunnel itself
caved in. The consequence was COM
plete damming of the narrow defiIe. A
great volume of water gathered hehind
the obstruction. For several hours q
panic prevailed among the people below,
but they had timo to escape the flood,
and when finally tho barrier gave way,
tho lake drained off gradually and no
great harm was done. If tho dam had
hold few hours longer, the entire val.

town, hitched their horses, placed
guards to warn away the citizens, went to
the east door of the jail, where they soon
found an entrance by breaking down the
doors with a sledge hammer. They then
quietly, but with great determination, pro
ceeded 10 break the iron door leading to
the corridors. This took sometime, in all,
perhaps, half an hour. The doors, how
ever, gave way under the skill and labor
of the avengers.

and more disquieting. Despite the appear
