REDWOOD FOR
ESI5.

The magnificent redwo0ds which ex
tend along tie coast lanQes, from Mont
Grey bay to SlskiyOu, constitute of course
the chief timber resources OF the state.
1t is from these forests that the major
part OF the lumber used in the state since
the American occupation has been OBJ
tanned. The drain on these forests has
necessarily been enormous. In those
redwood forests aiAcent to San Francis
co bay, and lying III the counties of San
Mateo, Santa Cruz, Marin, Sonoma,
Napa and Alameda, and most of the mer-
chantab.e timber in the original growth
has been removed long ago. Fortunate
iy the denudatlon OF these forests has not
produced a scene OF utter desoiation.
such as it sometimes pictured III the
mind as following in the wake OF the lun
ber-man's AK. In the greater portion of
these worked over forests, where the
stumps have not been removed to make
way for fruit tree or vine, the great vital
lty of the redwood has asserted itself.
and a dense growth of sapiings has
sprung from the mutilated butts aud are
rapidly approaching q merchantabla con-
ditiOn.
The same phenomenon of nature re-
storing the redwood forests IS Witnessed
III such parts of Mendocino and Hum
boldt counties as the lumberman has al.
ready culled. An in&resting illustra-
ton of the renewal Of these magnificent
forest trees is presented in the canyons
on the east side of the Contra COSTA and
Alameda country range, within few
miles of this city, and along the forest
clad slopes of Mount Tamalpais, and the
ranges Of Sonoma and Napa counties.
The redwood forests on the range east
of st. Helena in the latter county, sup
piled all the ties used in The construct
ion of the Napa Valley railway, and the
new growth has been drawn upoa for
years past for posts and stakes for the
vineyards and orchards that ere taking
the place of the forests.-San Francisco

The Roman Circus.

Such curious and beautiful creatures
were brought before our eyes as had
scarce known even in my readings.
And, rs if their natural beauty were
not enough, art had been called in to
increase their attra ction. There were
ostriches-'tis a bird, if YOU will be-
lieve me, Of full six cubits in height
dyed with vermilion; and lions whose
names had been gildcd, and antelopes
and gazelles, which were curiously
adorned with light-colored scarfs and
gold tinsel. | should weary you were
| to enumeratc the strange creatures
which | saw. Besides the more COM
mon kinds, there were river-horses Cts
clumsy beast. and as little like TO q
horse as can be conceived. except, they
say, as to the head when the upper
half is protruded from the water), and
rhinoceroses, and Zcbras, (heasts curl
ously striped and not unlike to a very
strong and swift ass); and. above all,
elephants. Though | liked not the ar
titicial adorning of some of these
creatures which, indeed, | thought
proof of certain vulgarity in these
Romans could not but admire the
skill with which all these animals had
been taught to keep in subsection their
natural tempers and to initiate the
ways of men. This was especially
manifest in the elephants. One of these
huge beasts, balancing himself most
carefully, walked on rope tightly
drawn. Other four, on the same diff
cult path. carried between them lit
ter in which was a fifth. who repre-
sented sick person. And even more
wonderful than these were the lions
and other beasts of similar kind 1t
has always been favorite marvel of
the poets, how Bacchus was drawn in
a chariot by leopards which he had
trained to be as docile as horses. But
here | saw Bacchus outdone. Lions
and tigers. panthers and bears, appear
ed patiently drawing carriages; lions
being yoked to tigers, and panthers to
bears. Wild bulls permitted boys and
girls TO dance upon their backs, and
actually, at the word of command
stood up on their hind feet. Still more
wonderful again than this was the spec
tacle of lions hunting hares, catching
them and carrying the prey in their
mouths. unhurt. to their masters. The
emperor summoned the lion-tamer
who had trained the beasts in this Won
derful fashion, and praised him highly
for his skill. The man answered with
as pretty compliment rs | ever heard.

Women as Homesteaders in the West

1t is very common to find lone and
unprotected female "holding down a
claim" as the western phrase runs.
The women of the east would look
aghaSt at the prospect of living alone
IN q sod house for six months, miles
from the nearest neighbor. Yet ex-
perience proves that the unprotected
is much safer out on the lonely prairie
than she would be in New York City.
| never heard nor read of a woman on
a homestead receiving an insult at the
hands of anybody. To be sure, they
are always armed and know how to
handle pistol but they rarely have Il
more deadly use for it than the killing
of 4 jack-rabbit or a prairie-dOg. Such
women complain more of loneliness
than of fear. For whatever charms
solitude may have for the sage, it cer-
tainlv has none for the fair sex, not
even our hardy western representatives
of il. Here is one of their ingenious
ways of avoiding it. Two of them will
locate on adjoining quarters" and
build their houses on the dividing line;
so that while each house is on its occu-
pants claim. the two structures are
practically one. atfording frequent op-
portunities for the ladies to call on each
other and discuss social topics. They
are all provided with ponies, and think
nothing of a horseback ride of fifteen
or twenty miles. either for business or
pleasure. e.-Hayper's 4dgasine.

A MARVEL IN STEEL-There are $50,
000 miles of railway in the United States;
500, 900 miles of raiis-in length enough
To make twelve steel girdles for the earth S
circumference. This enormous length Of
rail is wouderful-we 40 not really grasp
its significance. But the rail itself, the
little section of steel, is an engineering
feat. The change of its form from the cur
ious and clumsy iron pear head Of thirty
years ago to the present refined section
of steel is a scientific development 1t
has now beam whose every dimension
and curve and angle are exactly suited to
the tremendous work it hes to 90. The
loads it carries are enormous, the blows
it receives are heavy and constant, but it
carries the loads and bears the blows and
does its duty. The locomotive and the
modern passenger and freight cars are
great achievements, and 50 is the little
rail which carries them all.-John Bo-
gard in Scribner's Magazine.

JERUSALEM BUILT OVER RUINs.-As
the traveller walks on ne perceives that
his footsteps are not on the original
ground Of Jerusalem, but upon mass
of superimposed matter which has been
strewn over the whole site. History emu
merates seventeen captures of the holy
city, seleven of which were attended by
sieges more or less destructive. After
many of these events the houses then
standing were razed to the earth. These
were in time succeeded by new houses,
which in their own turn were over
thrown at the next siege, and so on,
each capture adding to the accumulation
of rubbish. Thus the traveller learns
that a compact layer of solid coating,
from thirty to fifty feet in thickness,
has been by degrees spread over the en-
tire space.
Even the valleys and ravines between
the several hills on which the city was
built have been SO far filled up as TO
have partly lost their special character,
already mentioned. The Tyropheon
brook is perhaps the most particular in
stance. The traveller will have heard of
this brook, or read OF it in Josephus as a
landmark III the interior of this city, but
now be will not find it. Nevertheless If
was so deep that at its exit from the city
at Moriah the bridge span was more
than 100 feet above its bed. Its course
has been traced by the discovery of the
arch and by deep excavations here and
there which have exposed the bed now
overlaid with ruins.-"Palestine IllGst-

alive during a months trip was demon
strated near the close Of the last year,
when specimens of several varieties
were taken from Paris to stock the
waters of Chill. There was considerable
loss of salmon, gudgeoDs, Totes and
barbs, but the carp, tench, eals, min
nows, etc., mostly survived. A low
temperature and constant circulation of
air through the water were kept up on
the tip.

candidate the first time, we find that Mid dlesex county furnished plurality for General Merwin, the republican candidate, of 213, while New Haven county elected Mir Mitchell by giving him the safe plurality of 2,008. It will be seen from three figures that New Haven county must be depended on to assure the election of a democratic congressman, and this is very strong reason why the nomination should come to the country. Some of the papers in Mid dlcsex county, and their claim Is being backed by the federal officials and their followers who are opposed to Mir Pigott, are asserting that to MddleseX heiongs this nomination because New Haven county hus had the congressman for the last three terms of six years. These papers, however, forget that Congressman Phelps of Essex who was MT Mitchell's immediate pre- decessor, held the place for four terms of eight years. If this argument is good, then New Haven county has the right of way for two years longer at least.
 The locality argument should, and doubt leSS WILL. nave uO "SlSIlC "lIIl Iue oCAcSoICS to the congressional convention. It should be with them purely and solely question of fitness and the strength which the nominee will add to the state and national tickets. In so far as personal fitness is concerned we believe Mir Pigott fully the equal, if not the superior, of Washington r. Wilcox; while he is immeasurably stronger than MT Wilcox could hope to be in this county where the dem Ocratic majority must of necessity be secured. MT Pigotts majorities when he was d political candidate in the city of New Haven were among the largest ever given there, and his popularity and drawing strength are as great as ever. For the small and unin- tiuential federal wing that would carry the knife to the polls enough republican votes could be secured as an offset, and we be- lieve that the young men of New Haven, irrespective of political affiliations and preferences, would be particularly active Ill working for his success. He would arouse an enthusiasm in New Haven that no other democratic name could awaken and the assertion that he would run ahead of his ticket there would be verified on election day. Hon James P. Pigott is by all odds the proper man for the present emergency that confronts the voters of the district. The interests of the national ticket, which has many dangers to face hereabouts this fall, will be safe and sure if TameS PioOtt hears tha con OraSsinDo al gonfalOn in this district

GO TO THE PRIMARIES,

Chairman Hellmann of the town com mittee has issued a call naming tomorrow, from to s p. m., as the time when the democratic voters in the various wards will make their choice of delegates to the various town conventions. These pr- maries are much more important occasions than the great majority of voters seem to comprehend. It is the choice that is made in these ward meetings that determines the attitude Waterbury will take in the state, congressional, probate, senatorial and representative conventions, as we'll as the character of the men who will repre- sent the city, town and school district in their various executive and legislative offices. Hence the importance of full and intelligent expression of opinion at the primaries. The interests that will re- ceive consideration at the polls tomorrow are particularly ramitied, and the various combinations that are possible when so many things are involved make it highly necessary for each voter to closely and carefully scrutinize the names that are on the ticket he votes. If he studies the names thoroughly, with an intelligent in sight into the direction which the success of those names would naturally indicate, he will discover for himself just what ticket should receive his vote We would especially urge the voters to look closely after those who are named as congressional delegates. The element that is antag- onizing MT Pigott is not the one which has the confidence generally of the democrats of Waterbury, and the suspicion that usually attaches to their motives in con- tests of this kind may we'll cause honest and earnest democrats, democrats in whom there is no thought save the best interests of the party, to exert themselves to defeat them.
 The duty of the democratic voters to- morrow is plain. It is to go to the primaries and there elect delegates whose action in choosing delegates to the general conventions will inspire confidence and good feeling and be a hamburger of success at the polls in November.

THE republican tariff tinkers in the senate are still fighting shy of bringing forward their bill The bill is held back because they cannot agree on any plan of tax revision. Their platform opposes any change, except in the direction of higher duties and making whiskey and tobacco and oleomargarine free of internal taxes. Even the republican senators would not dare to pass such bill as their platform calls for, and they are reduced to the at titude of mere obstruction, denying relief to the overburdened people, and endeavor- ing to cover up their crime against the country by false and fraudulent statements about the revenues.

The Record is the latest venture in Connecticut journalism, and it's first young shoot is lusty cry for "the protection of American industries. y The Record will learn as it grows older that all it's brethren are bawling for the same meat, and that American industries are safe and will be safe in the will of the majority of American citizens. The Record is neat geographically, vigorous and racy editorially, newsy and bright locally, and it will be valued among the most welcome of our exchanges. While Warren H. Gold smith holds the editorial helm the ship will sail clear of the shoals that have wrecked more than one journalistic craft in Hartford
