according TO the dignity Of kings and queens,

own figure, with music continually chang

As the tricks were taken they ranged

stage amid tue rapturous applause Of the
thousands OF delighted spectators.
The success of this scientifically played
game of whist was assured from the moment

CALIFORNIA; BIG TREE.
Sections of the Worlds Fair Exhibit
Sent East.

There recently went East over the South
ern Pacific eleven carloads of California's
exhibit in three shipments of six, three and
two cars each. These cars were labeled
"Sections of the Worlds Fair Tree. from
the Kings River Lumber Company, Sanger"
On each OF these cars were from three to
six immense slabs of seQuoia, or red wood.
to the number of forty-six, and aggregaiing
a weight of 195, 900 pounds.
The contract was let to the Kings River
Lumber Company to furnish an immen Sc
section of tree to be exhibited at the
Worlds Fair. An immense sequoia was
selected, and after much work of prepara-
tion was felled, but In falling a great slab
was split off one side, thus rendering the
tree useless for the purpose intended. An
other was selected and the same care taken
with more success. and the result is a fine
sectional specimen OF the seQuoa, native
TO this State alone.
1t is not TO be thought that this tree could
be sent as a whole nor in V-shaped sections
hewn out. Its enormous size prevented
this. Twenty. inch slabs OF a length Of
thirty feet were taken off all around the
tree, thus making, when put together, the
mere shell of this giant, with cross section
sawn off to form the top, or platform. when
the tree is set upright in the Worlds Fair
grounds.
After being carefully labeled aud so
marked that the pieces can be readily fitted
TO one another when put together, the sec
tions were hauled down the mountains
about fifty miles to Monson station and
there carefully and securely loaded on the
cars. Some idea can be CLEANED of the i'm
mensIty of this exhibit from the following
dimensions: Height, 80 feet; diameter at
base, % feet; circumference, 20 feet; at
the top-diameter, Is feet; circumference. 81
feet The platform at the top will accom-
modate many people, and this tree will do
much to attract the attention of people from
all parts OF the world TO California as the
home Of "big" trees.

about one month after the sale took place.

DOOLITTLE'S START.

DE, Doolittle, ore of the youngest mem.

and who is popularity known as lone of the
BOYS" made one of the greatest strikes or
finds that WAS made in California during
The '70's.

great find. He had partly worked num-
Der of claims without success and had ex-
amIned many abandoned holes with the
same result when he struck gravel Dea IN
The north fork of the American River,
Placer County, and made his fortune.
1t was in a deep ravine, up which Doc
little was making his way. washing with
his pan here and there and examining care
fully for traces of gold.
He had net gone up the rayine lar when
he washed out a four-dollar nugget, and,
having inherited mining instinct from his
father, who was also a miner, young Doo-
little took the scent like a well-traned
hound striking deer trail.
He worked up the gravel bed, taking out
altogether four or five ounces in gold, valued
at about eighteen dollars an ounce, and by
tracing ND the deposits, which came from a
spillover, he discovered the main channel
# what afterward became the Old Doc
little mine.
The Old Dooittle PANIED out famOusly

J.E. Do0ittle also found a quartz ledge
in Nevada County which he thinks viii yet
amount to something. though nothing OF
value has yet been taken from it.
