/ A terrible tragedy was enacted at Memphis
Tenn, which resulted in the killing of Father
Ashfeld, a Catholic priest connected with ST.
Peters cathedral in that city. Several
months ago A. Reeves, we'll known young
man about town, was confined in jail on Eac-
count of mental troubles. Father Ashfeld
visited him in jail and was instrumental in
having him released after a short confinement
Reeves rang the bell of the priests house,
and when the door was opened he pushed the
porter inside and went direct to Father Ash
fields room The porter thought him
drunk and ran to the station house, which
is only a square distant, for a police officer.
When the two returned they found Reeves
sitting on the floor carressing the head of
the priest, who was dead. It was evident
that Reeves had stabbed him while asleep,
as the bed was covered with blood, The
weapon used was an ordinary pocket knife.
When asked why he had committed the deed
Reeves replied: ''God told me to do it, At
the station house he said: He was my best
friend, and as | was going away 1 wanted
him to join me-" The dead priest was fifty
years old.

The Japanese minister at Washington re-

affairs OF Japan saying that the constitu ton
OF the empire was proclaimed by the emperor
in person amid great enthusiasm.
At Washington the committee of experts
to examine and report upon rotary locks
for through registered mail bags has made a
report rejecting all samples submitted. One
of the bidders was Capt. j ohm A. Barr of ST..
Paul His lock was superior and his bid the
lowest, while his lock was entirely new, hav-
ing been invented and manufactured since
Dec. 20 last. When the bids were opened,
during the latter part of January, it was
feared that there might be partiality shown
in the award, but the result is satisfactory to
all parties. Capt. Barr will return to ST.
Paul within a few days.
The Washington Star prints the following:
startling revel ations are madein the experts
reports upon the character of the work in
the aqueduct tunnel. The extent of the
fraud is almost beyond conception. The
committee in charge of the investigation was
IN session few days ago reading the report
OF the experts. They disclosed a state of
rottenness that the committee had no idea
OF, notwithstanding all the newspaper ex-
posures and the facts stated in previous tes-
timony. Hundreds and hundreds of feet of
the masonry is without packing, and spaces
were found in many places where man by
leaning forward little, could walk for a
hundred feet on top of the brick arch. 1t is
estimated that it will cost not less than
$3.50, 900 to make anything out of the tun-
mel. 1t is understood that the committee in
their report will hold Maj Lydecker RESPONSE

The average natural age of the
oak is from 1900 to 1000 years; of
the elm $50 to 500 years; the maple
600 to 800 years; the yew tree,
the largest of all, $500 to 5000
the cedar, 800; linden, 1900, and
cypress, $50. There are trees now
standing, believed to be more than
5000 years old. In this connection
we remember the words of Susan
Fenimore Cooper several years ago:
"Of all the works OF creation, that
know the changes of life and death,
the trees of the forest have the long
est existence; of all the objects that
crown the gray earth, the trees pre-
serve, throughout the greatest reach
OF time, their native character. .
