A Wonderful Oak.

There is u remarkable white oak
mt Salem, N. j. 1t stands in the
burying-ground of the Society of
Friends. / can not learn that any
one knows Usage exactly, but it is
said to beat least 200 years old. 1t
is u wonderful tree for it's size and
symmetry, and for the great number
and spread of its branches. 1t was
measured in 1884, and was then so
feet high; the trunk was is feet +
inches i'll girth, and the spread of the
branches was 800 feet in circumtcr-
ence. The circle covered 10y them
was 1 IA feet in diameter and its area
1O,2O7 square feet. l am indebted
to the courtesy of Mr.. II. NJ. Rumscy
for these measurements.
To see this tree is we'll worthy n
summerday's journey from Phila,lel-
phia to Salem. Any such tree is IL
credit to the townin which it stands.
Its existence indicates a degree of
civilization, an appreciation of the
beauty and majesty of noble trees,
which is by no means so general in
our country as is desirable. In too
many places such inscnsibility and
vandalism prevail that no tree has
IL chance to attain to imposing pro-
portions, the beauty of complete
development, or the interest which
attaches to great age. am sorry
to say that this fine tree has been
seriouslyinjured within the last few
years by neglect of the wounds made
by the removal of several large
branches. The large cut of surfaces
areeXposed to the weather and to
the attack OF enemies of all kinds,
without any protection whatever.
They should have been covered at
once with IL thick coat of coal-tar
or paint. While unsllicldcd they in
vite the entrance of the spores of
various fungi, Or toad-stools, which
will ultimately destroy the tree.
Their mycelium is u perennial
growth, and spreads through the
sound wood until the entire tree is
inoculated with n fatal disease. 1t
is probable that, in Il few years, this
grand tree will begin to show symp-
toms of decay.

A Large aud Unbroken Family.

There is IL family living in Glouces-
ter county which boasts of having
lost none of its members since 1921.
Jumes Thomas is the founder of it

1912, has seven sons weighing 400
pounds; five daughters weighing $50
pounds; and forty-six grandchildren,

The issue is whether the special pro.
lection extended to the ballot-boxes in
Ohio, after the Democratic campaigns
Of Doodle and forgery in 'sS and 'S5 shall
be removed.
It is probable the Democratic leaders
know enough to know, that it is not
political prudence to make known that
bribery and forgery are to be resumed
at the old stands II they are successful
this summer, but the real masters Of the
party are 80 eager for the resumption Of
criminality in falsifying elections that
they are unable to contain themselves.
Instead Of the expenses being 90, 600
per annum, as stated by the Shield, the
facts are that the additional cost is less
than $500 for the city of Mansfield.
