The way the thing happened wa this.
Our section had been fighting Il alone IN

Of the battery joined US, when we moved

halted 90 q spot in the woods 70 rest and

was after that engagement. II was alb
solutely necessary Tor me 10 take q rest,
and perceiving . hugo tree near by
concluded TO plant myself along side Of
It. SO I leaned against Il with my back
to the enemy's line, stretched out my
feet and was having splendid rest when
q 12-pound shot came bounding along
and struck the tree plumb on the oppo-
hte side from me and at q point Just Boz

Well, sir, I didn't know what struck
me. The shock was tremendous. Great

that tree, looking sideways up and ex-
pecting momentarily to see the whole
enormous mas Of wood and leaves come
crashing down on me. I didn't know

Electric Heating.

Electricity generated for heating or
for any other purpose must be produced
ct the cost Of the expenditure Of some
other form Of energy, such as the burn
ing Of coal or the force Of falling water.
As the latter form Of power is hardly
available for use in New York, It fol-
lows that II electric heating Is TO become
a commercial phase Of life in that city
current will be supplied to consumers
from central stations In which coal is
burned under the boilers, precisely SINH
lar to existing plants for the supply.o of
light and power. The conversion and
transmission Of heat by this process is
not economical, and current from coal
burning stations In sufficient quantities
for heating could only be used by the
wealthy, to whom Its convenience and
cleanliness would commend itself.
Tits apparent, however, that the ''coal
barons" would have nearly as much to
say about the supply Of fuel to such sta
tons as to individual consumers al pres
emit although 1t is probable that the
mere cost Of coal and labor would be
proportionately reduced by the use Of
cheaper grades Of fuel and by central
ization. Doubtless electric heating has
q great future, but at present It seems
to be principally available in localities
where water power can be utilized In

The ger sral arrangement Of the leaves
on limbs and stalks Of trees and plants
secures between each sufficient space to
prevent one leaf from interfering with
another. And not only are leaves 30 ar
ranged as to exist Independently Of each
other, but in a general way they have
taken upon themselves the forms best
adapted to secure the maximum Of sun,
light as 1t is showered upon them in diff.
ferent ATTITUDES. At the equator, where
the suns rays are vertical, we find large
fat leaves, like those Of the banana,
plantain and the various species Of the
cactus.
Farther north, where sunlight strikes
at an angle, small leaves and pine
needles" are found. Then, again, note
the popularity Of the Australian gum
tree-instead Of exposing their broad
faces to the sun the edges only are so
turned. Were It otherwise the sun
would rob them of all their moisture, il
being a well known fact that the gum
tree grows in the driest region on earth.

nearest thing to a cobbler today is the
custom made mar who confines his at
tention exclusively to that one branch.

quantities and In sections is Of compare
lively recent date, and prior to its adop-
ton the shoemaker, or cobbler, did the
entire business, from taking the measure
to collecting the money, In small towns
and villages he literally performed the
entire process himself, having insufficient
trade to justify the employment Of an
assistant, and in larger cities he superin-
tended the work from beginning to end
himself. The labor saving wonders Of
the times have practically swept this
man out Of the field, and there are very
few members Of the trade who are really

The bill, the text which we pub
lished n couple of weeks ago, to
suspend the doing of assessment
work on mining claims for this
year, is now alaw. 1t is another ex-
ample of the unwisdom of hurried
and unconsidered legislation. 1t
was doubtless intended to be of
benefit to poor mine owners, but il
aroused such strong feeling among
miners that petition after petition
was got up among them and sent in
TO congress protesting against it,
Unfortunately these were received
too late, as the bill had then pass
ed both houses and received the
Presidents signature. Congress
will however meet next month, and
as strong efforts will be made to
have this ley law promptly re-
pealed we advise all mining claim
owners 10 have their assessment
work done for 1893 and not trust
TO the chance of the continuance
of this unfortunate law.
