AND CURIOUS TREES.

ADU BoIs man has in his yard palm
tree in blossom, and a plum tree on
which plums are now growing as large
as nuts.
BEAR-nUNTERs in Fresno County, CAL,
penetrating thick underbrush, came
upon the biggest tree yet reported in
that wonderful State. The rope that
girdled 1t four feet from the ground was
100 feet 5 inches long.
NEAR Clifford Station, on the Staten
Island railroad, there is peculiar piece
of woodland, spot where the roots of
the trees will attach themselves to the
trunks at from four to six feet above the
level of the ground, giving to the stumps
an odd, spidery appearance. The soil
of the vicinity is very porous, which
lends weight to the opinion that the
banyan-liEe grove has been formed by
the action of frost and water.
The root of a California tree recently
made remarkable journey for the wa
ter of sewer. 1t followed the sewer
casing until it reached high brick wall
in which, several feet up, was very
small hole leading to the other side.
This hole the root made bee-line for,
other side, where finally it found the
water it sought. How did the tree
know of the hole in the wallP How did
1t know that the sewer was on the other
side?
On the plantation of John n. Roberts,
near Robertville, s. c., there is tree,
If not destroyed by the turpentine hands,
that does not touch the ground by six
feet. A pine sapling, cut down at
some period unknown to tho oldest in
habitant, lodged on the limb of an ada
cent tree. The growth of the tree and
limb gradually closed around it until it
became completely imbedded. Draw
ing its life from the tree, it grows and
presents luxurious appearance. All
trace of the stump from which it was cut
has long since disappeared.

A coNTRIvAEcE for opening letters
speedily has been patented in Mel
bourne, Australia The invention con-
sists of the simple plan of fastening
thin piece of string across the upper
edge of the envelope, just who're tho
flap folds over, and when the letter is
closed the ends of the string protrude
about quarter OF an inch at each of
the upper corners. BY taking hold of
the string smart pull will open the en-
velope at the top in fraction Of sec
end, the paper being cut by the string
as neatly as IL knife had been used.

A PROPOSITION To preserve the natural
beauties of the White Mountains. similar
to that made in New York to preserve
the Adrondacks, will be brought to the
attention of the New Hampshire Legisa-
ture. The State Forestry Commission
will recommend that the State take pos
session of the entire White and Franco
MIA Mountain district. and perhaps some
adjacent territory, and control the same
so far as forestry interests are concerned,
in the name of the Commonwealth
Under this plan there would be either
one vast public park, or several parks of
limited areas. The State would thus
prevent the further Dissertation of the
natural scenery. The legal right of the
State to make such seizure is unqucs-
toned. and il is believed that the Legis-
lature will unanimously appropriate all
the money needed. The Commissioners
say that they are receiving letters from
many sections of the United States ask
ing them to do all in their power to pre-
vent additional strippin" of the forests
in the mountain sections of New Hamp-
shire.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.

TIE lot of King Ii Iii 81 Corca is not
n happy one. The Kin" has OF late
shown great preference for all American
ideas and inventions. and it has been his
aim to rid himself of the supervision of
China. the ncighboring great empire. and
to become an indepcnpcnt sovereign.
This has made him very unpopular with
a large number of his subjects. for there
is strong pro-ChineSc party in Corca.
Since the signing of the treaty with the
United States in 1854 the Chinese party
has made Ii His existence miserable.
The Kings efforts to enter into indepen-
dent relations with the various Western
nations and open his country to trade
have greatly angcrcd his opponents. Adj
vices Just received from China show that
the mass of the people in Corca have been
led to believe. doubtless by reports spread
bv Ii His enemies. that the present
dynasty i drawing to close. The report
has been spread in the interest of family
named ko. \ conspiracy to asSassinate
the King. which was discovered lately. it
is said. has ramiiicatiOns throughout all
Corea. and several ministers of State are
implicated. King Ii Iii is 80 years old,
and. though intelligent. is not particu-
larly able man. Some of the intrigues
against him have started in his own
palace.

SCARCELY a day passes without the oc-
currcncc somewhere in this country of
fire which destroys life. When the fire
is over and the rubbish cleared away it Is
plainly seen why the fire was fatal. Yet
on the very site of the burned building,
says the Washington Star. will he erected
new one quite rs defective as its prcde-
cesSor. Men know how to erect better
buildings. but they do not want to eXpend
the money where it cannot be seen. and
as between ten thousand dollars spent in
visible ornamcntation or like amount in
rendering the building tire-proof or Sc
cure, the ornament will get the money
nine times in ten. And this in houses to
be occupied by the builders own families.
To be well insured appears to be of more
consideration than to he perfectly safe.
As fatal fires increase a new order of
buildings will grow up with it. and safety
rather than Ornamcntation will be the aim
of the latest architecture.

HENRY X. WICEsTEED. a civil engineer
of Brantfor,l, Canada. has a scheme. He
proposes that the Dominion Government
enlarge the Canadian canal system at a
cost of $40. 600. 900, so rs to give ocean
going vessels access to the great lakes.
The object of the scheme, WickStced
SAYS, is to benefit the great Northwest
and sesurc cheaper transportation of pro-
ducc Railways. he says, cannot afford
to haul freight ut much less than onc-half
to onc-third of cent IA ton per mile, and
they carry it N an average rate of fifteen
miles an hour. Ocean steamers moving
at about two-thirds that rate could carry
freight proiitably at One-twcntieth of a
cent ton. or little more. He MAIN
tainS that if ocean steamers could reach
Chicago. Milwaukee. Duluth and Port
Arthur. they would carry ninc-tenths of
the grain now shipped by rail. They
would also. he thinks. get most of the
traffic that now goes by American routes.

ArllHciai Ice lOr Shaling PURPOSES.
The Gran Plaza Ga Toros, in the Rue

about to become new centre of a.trac-
ton for the Parisians as skating-rink,

these pipes constant current of COM
pressed ammonia is forced by three
steam-engines in order TO freeze the water.
The modus operandi is very simple. The
ammonia, being compressed by powerful
engines into liquid state, is driven
through the pipes; there it expands into
gas, and thereby freezes the water, alb
