It Is not the lark's clear tone Cleaving the morning air with a soaring cry, Nor the nighilngAle's dulcet melody all the

 hum ol the ay And the chirp of the cricket hidden out Of
 sight These help to make the summer Not roses redly blown, Nor golden lilies, lighting the dusky mead Nor proud, imperial pansies, nor queen cups
 quaint and rare Not these alone Make the sweet sights of summer. But the countless forest leaves. the myriad way

Fe,l,ug frees by Electrrcity.

Hitherto machines for telling trees
have been driven by machine power
but this is sometimes inconvenient,
especially in thick woods, and cleo
trio power has recently been adopted
IN the Galician forests. Usually IN
such machines the trunk is sawed,
but IN this case it is drilled. When
the wood Is Of soft nature the drill
has sweeping motion and cuts into
the trunk by means OF cutting edges
on its sides. The drill is actuated by
an electric motor mounted on a car
rage, which is brought up close to
the tree and shackled to it. The mo-
tor is capable of turning round Its
vertical axis, and the drill is geared
TO it in such a manner that it can
turn through the arc Of circle, and
make a sweeping cut into the trunk.
The first cut made, the drill is ad-
vanced few inches, and another sec
ton Of the wood removed in the same
way until the trunk is half severed.
1t is then clamped to keep the cut
from closing, and the operation con-
tinued until it would be unsafe to go
on. The remainder is finished by n
hand saw or an ak. The current is
conveyed to the motor by insulated
leads, brought through the forest from
generator placed in some conven-
tent SITE London Times.

District Commander Nudge, Quarter
master Whitson and Sergeant Major
Cowles, of the G. A. r., went to San
Pedro yesterday to superintend the lay
ing out of the grounds and the erecting of
the tents and pavilion for the coming
encampment of the veterans and their
friends. Arrangements have been made
looking to the comfort of campers and
visitors. There will be a number of
lodging tents and boarding places, and
privileges have been sold for restaurants,
lemonade stands, ice cream booths, etc.,
so that visitors will find plenty to eat and
drink without leaving the grounds.
The encampment, which will be inau-
gursted on Thursday next, promises to
eclipse anything OF the kind heretofore
held in this section. An interesting pro.
grsmme has been prepared for each day.
and it is believed that from 1000 to 800
people will be present in camp.
In addition to the regular trains, a
special will leave the Arcade depot ct IL

their treatment of trunks. He endeavors
in his message to instill in their minds
the idea that it is not healthy for trunk
to drop on one corner from the door of q
baggage car to the platform below, and
that it is not the intention of the COM
pany to pay damages for the purpose of
allowing the train men to have some
fun with the passengers trunks.
