Two years before Aaron Burr killed him
in duel at Weehawken Alexander Hamil-
ton planted thirteen trees in his grounds at
the Grange on Washington Heights. New
York city. The trees were intended to be
symbolic of the thirteen original states Of
the union. Recently there has been some
danger of the sacrifice of the trees to make
room for the growth Of the city. But that
danger has been averted by the purchase of
the site upon which they stand by Mr.. q. B.
Potter, of New Y ork, for the express purpose
of preserving the trees. Mr.. Potter said he
acted for the Sons Of the Revolution, and
the purchase cost him Sl40,500 When the
trees were planted each was named for
state. Singularly New York is the tallest
and Rhode Island the smallest. The trees
named North Carolina, South Carolina,
Virginia and Georgia were struck by light
ming during the war. Although they were
shattered they are in good condition now.

In view of the Bering sea controversy,
the story that Great Britain recently made
plans to capture a coaling station at San
Quentin, Lower California, is very inter-
esting. Some two years ago few Amerl-
can fllibusters at San Diego and Los Auge-
les. Cal, made arrangements to descend on
Lower California and capture the country,
when it was to be annexed to the United
States. The scheme was made known to
the Mexican government and fell through.
But before it was disclosed the British au-
thorities had learned Of what was on foot
and laid their plans accordingly. In
San Quentin they had agents for
the purpose. who were to signal
British warships cruising within signal
ing distance. at the first appearance Of the
American hlibusters. These ships were to
descend on the port and seize 1t at once, on
the pretext Of protecting British interests,
but really to get foothold and establish the
coveted station. 1t is stated as fact that
two war vessels. the Warsprite and the
Pheasant, lowered around the coast for
weeks awaiting the signal which never
came. 1t is said in Washington that Great
Britain is suspected Of again having designs
on San Quentin In connection with Bering
sea. Off the Atlantic coast. 1t will be borne
in mind, England has complete line of
| coaling stations. at Halifax, Bermuda and
| st. Lucia, in convenient sailing distance of
our coast.

her portrait painted by local artist not long

which side his bread was buttered. and painted
the picture accordingly. The lady, while she
