The Tree was cut so that each team
hauled one thousand feet of lumber,
and each log was without knot or
bleInish. The walnut-lumber trade
OF this section has engaged at least
LOCO men and 900 horses for the last
four Years, and it is roughly estima-
ted that it has brought into the three
counties of Tazwell, Russell and
Washington, Sl.5O0,0O0. We have
still other big trees in this and adj

Attiela Moore. in Wright's Valley.
there is gigantic poplar which is the
pride and wonder of the neighbOr
hood. 1t measures about twenty-nine
feet in circumference at the base, and
towers above the surrounding trees
like a cathedral spire. On the farm
owned by the late James Sheffpy, in
this county, there is the trunk of an
other poplar, which is followed by
the gradual decay of hundreds of
years (the decay beginning at the
hearO, into which hOrseman can

his spurs reversed and his mind full

havethis trunk covered with Il shingle

sentative, Captain j. p. Sheffry, of
Marion. To some extent the walnut

Generally speaking, marriages pass
off very smoothly, and frequently
with very pretty effects. The brides

beforehand. Sometimes there has been

Old Notions Concerning Bridesmaids.

In many parts of Germany it is
still customary for the bridesmaids
to bring the myrtle wreath, which
they have subscribed together to pur.
chase, on the nuptial eve, to the
house of the bride, and to remove it
from her head at the close Of the
wedding day. After this has been
done, the bride is hlindfolded, and
the myrtle wreath being put into her
hand, she tries to place it upon the
head of one of her bridesmaids as they
dance around her for, in accordance
with an old belief, whoever she
crowns is sure to be married within
year from that date. AS may be
imagined, this ceremony is the source
of no small excitement, each brides.
mail being naturally anxious to fol-
low the example of the bride. Re-
ferring once more to the bridal wreath
and chaplet, it is still current notion
in many parts of England that the
bride in removing these must take
special care that her bridesmaids
throw away every pin. Not only is
it affirmed that misfortune will over
take the bride who retains even one
pin used in her marriage toilet. but
woe also to the bridesmaids if they
keep any of them. as their prospects
of marriage will thereby he materi-
ally .essened. In many parts of Rus.
STA the brides attendants are often
middIeagpd women. Thus according
to one authority, when the priest has
tied the nuptial knot at the altar, the
clerk sprinkles on her head handful
of hops. after which "she is muffied

An Ungratefnl Beauty.

A bright looking young woman,
who wore low shoes and Iight-hlue
stockings, made misstep in going
ashore from the steamboat Cetus at
Coney Island recently, and fell into
the water. One of the deckhands
promptly threw off his straw hat and
blouse and leaped in after her. Hun
dredS of people crowded to the edge
of the boat and eagerly watched the
attempted rescue. The deck hand
caught the young woman around the
waist and bore her up until small
boat came out from under the iron
pier and picked up both the rescuer
and the rescued. The young woman
had swallowed more or less water,
hut she Was none the less sprightly
for all that.

Women in Sleeping Cars.

A man may get into berth and
shuck himself very comfortably. He
can stand on his knees and duck his
head and take off some of his clothes.
and then he can lay down on his
shoulders or the back of his neck and
kick off other articles of wearing APP
parel, because when the buttons are
unbuttOned his clothes are a. liable
to come off in the dark as in the light.
But it is different with woman.
Her clothes are pinned on with all
kinds of Fins, from the safety pin to
the darning needle, tied on with
strings, hooked on with hooks and
eyes. buckles. and put on in many
ways only known to the fair sex.
Give her large enough room, three
or four gas lamps, and large mirror,
and plenty of time. and she can find
nearly all the pins. string, hooks and
eyes, buckles, &C., and what she can't
find she can break at night and tie
up in the morning but place her in
small berth, in the dark, with only
two eyes to watch all the holes in tn :
curtain to see if anybody is looking,
and only two small hands to find
things to unfdSten. and she is in bad
box. Add to all these calamities, such
as pins, hooks, strings, and buckles.
several hundred hair pins and an in
visible net that is invisible even in
the day time, and quantity of hair
that has no visible means of support,
and shoes with fifteen buttons on. or
laced up for quite distance, and you
will not wonder that the woman who
had her berth made up first is the
last to retire, and almost before you
heard the last corset string break at
night. you hear her trying to get her
clothes on in the morning. With all
these things to co ltend with, it is not
to be wondered at that women are
frequently heard to say that they
never sleep wink liz sleeping car.
They don't have time to sleep. There
Is no place in sleeping berth tn put

the time she has got her clothes half
off she is exhausted, and lays down
with her mouth full of hair pins to
wait for daylight so she can open the
window curtain and take an account

a clothes-basket in every berth, or a
bureau, or even Il whatnOt, it would
