Worlds Fair Concessions.
Chicago Dispatch:

Chicago Dispatch:
With only one full week left of
the official exposition season a
close estimate can be given Of the
profits of cOncessiOnaires in
Jackson park and the Midway.
Chief Clerk Blackman of the adj
ministrations and collections de-
Tartment, figures that the profits
of the cOncessionaires will aggre-
gate 100000 after deducting the
percentage to the Exposition. This
represents about 300 Of the
gross receipts. Most Of COncPs-
sionaires have made money after
paying from % to so per cent into
the Exposition treasury. The Fer
ris Wheel company will pay a profit
of about $260,0OO after deducting
100000 for cost and 30 per cent of
the receipts paid to the fair after
that amount was taken in. When
the DOckery congressional commit
tee was in Chicago investigating
the finances of the Exposition and
its estimates of revenue, while the
S5,O0O,O0O loan bill was before Con-
gress, as little as 100000 was es-
timated as the income from con-
cessiOns.
Big restaurants in the park, par
ticularly those of the Wellington
Catering company, have found
their concessions the most profit
able. The electric launch, soda
water, popcorn and souvenir con-
cesSions come next on the profit
side of the ledgers. The men who
will leave the Worlds fair with
fortunes in their pockets are Col.
Cody and his colleagues, who were
told by President Higinbotham,
when they opened negotiations to
put the Wild West show on the
grounds, that it was not refined
enough. They leased a big tract
of land just outside the EXPOSE
ton gates and reaped a golden
harvest.

Age of Trees.

From the New York Tribune.
Elm, 300 years; ivy, 335 years :;
maple, 5l6 years; larch, $40 years :;
orange, $50 years; cypress, SEQ
years; olive, 500 years; walnut,
900 years; oriental plane, 1000
years; lime, 100 years; spruce,
1900 years; oak, 1900 years; cedar,
20OO years; yew, 5000 years. The
way in which the ages of these
trees have been aacertained leaves
no doubt Of it's correctness. In
some few cases the data have been
furnished by historical records and
by traditions, but the botanical
archPOlogistS have a resource in
dependent Of either, and, when
carefully used, infallible.
OF all the forms of nature, trees
alone disclose their ages candidly
and freely. In the stems of trees
which have branches and leaves
with Melted VeinS-in all eXogens,
as the botanist would say-the in
crease takes place by means of an
annual deposit of wood, spread in
an even layer upon the surface of
the preceding one.
In the earlier periods of life trees
increase much faster than when
adult the oak, for instance, grows
more rapidly between the Goth and
Both years-and when old the an
nual deposits considerably di-
minish, so that the strata are thin
ner and the rings propOrtionately
closer. Some trees slacken in rate
of growth at a very early period
of life, and layers of oak become
thinner after 40, those of the elm
after 30, those of the yew after 60.

What Bebomes of Old Car Horses

From the Brooklyn Eagle.
Naturally one would think that
the disposition of between 5000
and 1000 horses in less than a
years's time would have a marked
effect on prices, but such has not
vet been the case if those who are
best able to judge speak truly
and who would doubt the word Of
dealer in hOrseflesh? The car
noises make excellent farm horses,
and most of those that have been
sold have been bought by farmers
on Long Island, in Connecticut,
New Jersey, or towns along the
Hudson river. The prices paid for
these horses ranged from $50 up to
1925. Mr.. Bogardus said that there
were many horses owned by the
company that they would not sell
for 5000, as they were good, stout
truck horses, which could not be
obtained in the open market at
that price today.
The horses were sold Singly to
any buyer who would pay the
value of the animal. Sometimes
dealer would purchase a lot of five,
ten or twenty, and occasionally
lot of 100 or POO would be put up
and sold at auction. HuckSters
and grOcers in the city were also
among the purchasers.

The Habit of Signing Petitions.
From the Indianapolis News.

The Habit of Signing Petitions.
From the Indianapolis News.
Shortly after Gov. Morton was
inaugurated an effort was made to
secure the pardon of a man in
prison. The lawyer argued at
some length and bore heavily on
the fact that all the members of
the bar wanted the man released,
and had signed petition to that
effect, which had been sent to Gov.
Willard too late to be acted upon.
"Let me see the papers," said
Gov. Morton.
Mr.. Holloway secured the petit
ton, glanced over it and broke in
to laugh.
q guess he's got you, GOVERNOR"
GLOW is that?"
"Hero is your name signed twice
to this petition"
"Hey?"
He took the paper and there, sure
enough, was the name of O. p.
Morton in two different places. He
remembered that the petition had
been passed around the Wayne
county court room, and all the
lawyers in the room, including Mr..
Morton, had signed without read
ing it.
81 know that man." exclaimed
the Governor, "he is q scOundrel.
The petition is rejected"

that the treaty with Hawaii will not be

This condition Of affairs is admitted by

final action on the treaty. One man can
defeat both propositions at this stage of
the proceedings of the Senate, and all ell
