INDIA RUBBER TREES.
How South Americans XIII the Goose Tha
Lays the Golden Egg.

How South Americans XIII the Goose That
Lays the Golden Egg.
! We now come into forest Of rubber
trees, which can be detected without
the eye of an expert, for they are all
SCARED and dying rapidly from the
hunter's machete. The rubber hunter
reminds me of the boy who "killed the
goose that layed tho golden egg" Each
tree can afford to loose certain
amount Of juice per year and still live.
When one Of these fellows, however.
makes O discovery, only few months
sufiie to place his bonanza In tho ranks
of the many that have gone before.
The consequence Is one may traverse
these immense forests from end to end
and never meet virgin tree. The
ordinary specimen of Nicaragua is
from fifty to one hundred feet
high, averaging about two feet
in diameter. The bark Is white and
the leaves oval, with q slight inclina-
tion downward. The cuts are made
about two feet apart and extend from
the ground TO the first branch, chan
nels being scored in the side to lead the
juice into bag, held ut tho bottom.
The average yield of large tree is
from five to seven gallons Of milky
fluid. This is placed in an open ves-
sci and mixed in small proportions
with the juice OF plant found near
the rubber tree called the wisth, which
hastens congelation. After this opera
tiOn is complete the product is baled
up and shipped north, to be refined
and further prepared for commerce.
Another tree very similar to the rub
ber, and often mistaken for 1t, is the
COW tree. This yields u liquid very
much like milk in color, consistency
and taste. - Nicaragua Cor. N. "

Lightning and an Express Train Ovsrteke
Man who would Not Heed = warning.
BIRMINGHAM, ALA, July s.--Wm. Tuck.
or, aged fifty mine years, farmer, living
near Riverside, on the Georgia Pacihc
railway, forty miles east Of this city, was
struck and instantly killed by lightning
yesterday afternoon about four o'clock.
The circumstances surrounding his death,
as related by his companion, Tom Walker,
are peculiar. Tucker and Walker were
walking up the railroad toward the village
when severe thunderstorm arose. The
rain came down In torrents and lightning
flashed in terrible frequency along the rails
and wires. There was no house near at
hand where the men could seek shell
ter. Walker suggested to Tuck
,er that they get of the
track and take to the woods. Tucker re-
piled no; that II the lightning was going to
strike him It would be just as apt to do so
away from the track as upon IL. Walker
then left the track, but had hardly gone
ten stops when fash Of lightning came.
Tucker was strickland instantly killed.
Walker was knocked unconscious, and just
as he recovered he saw the Georgia Pacific
wost- hound express run over his friend,
completely severing the head from the
body. A party went out to the spot whore
the accident occurred, examined fuckers
body, and II was found that every bone In
his body was broken.

Mrs. Logan m Politics.

The ono great favorite at the Chicago con-
ventlon was Mrs. Logan, tho widow of Gen.
eral John A. Logan. Her reception by all
classes and by supporters Of all the several
candidates was most fattering. Some few
ungallant follows were 80 unmanly as to
grumble at her for becoming O partisan of
her husbands former warm friend and sup
porter, General Algcr; but as q rulo oil the
delegates smiled upon hor and recognized
her undoubted right to advocate the claim
Of any candidate she chose to support.
For moro than twenty years Mrs. Logan
hos been power in tho politics Of tho coun-
try. Unlike the woman's suffrage advo-
cato she has been content to exercise that
power under the namo and through tho por-
sonality of her husband, and hence her in
huencc has boen positive, actual, active
force for good In National affairs,
She Is woman with strong, masculine
common sense was firm believer In her
husbands ability, and an admirer OF his un-
conqucrable courage She accompanied him
everywhere and shared in his triumphs. In
politics she was his "guide, philosopher and
friend" checking with kindly courtesy his
impulsive nature, and defending him with
courage and spirit when his good name was
assailed. In short, she was true, faithful
and loving wife to man who had great
qualities himself, but who was greater be-
cause OF having welded the woman he did.
Tacitus, in mentioning for the first time
In history the tribes of Gothic savages who
roamed the primeval forests beyond the
Alps-the ancestors Of tho present Ger
manic races-speaks of tho fact that mon
ogamy prevailed among them; and that the
ono wife was the constant companion of her
warrior husband. She attended to the
aimnle household duties titled tho fields.
and when tho invader approached, carried
his arms and armor TO tho battlefield, and
upon occasion, even fought beside him.
Mrs. Logan Is the modern type Of the
Gothic wife, Her husbands life was one
long and heated struggle, until tho eternal
rest Of tho grave was reached. Nobly,
courageously, loyalty did she bear his armor
for him In the hundred political battles Of
his life; and in doing 30 she drew to herself
the esteem, respect and friendship Of oil
true-hearted men.-Chtca0o Inter Ocean

Sheridan a MonouItt

NEW BEDFORD, MASS, July s.-General
Sheridan, whose expected coming has been
leading theme Of conversation here for
week past, arrived to-day. Colonel Michael
Sheridan, Of the Generals staff, accom-
panied the party from the ship to the
shore, and was In constant attendance on his
brother. The cottage is most tastefully
decorated. Its front windows look out
over Buzzard Bay, and 1t Is in proximity
to several other fne summer resi-
dences. The General was placed In the
front parlor, as tits the pleasantest and
most convenient room. The cottage, al
though spacious, has Its capacity we'll
tested. The entire party go to the hotel, a
short distance away, for their meals. Mrs.
Sheridan came from the cottage late in the
afternoon, evidently very happy at the
successful termination Of what was re-
garded as very hazardous experiment.
All conditions now seem to favor the Gem
erals recovery, and at no place on the
New England coast could he be assured
greater quiet. 49,
