The Only Five -Masted Schooner.

The schooner Governor Ames, the
largest fore.and.after in the world and
the only -masted schooner, arrived
in Providence the other day with 1926
tons of coal. She has recently been
engaged in carrying lumber from the
Pacific ports to Australia. She is 2Gj
feet long all, 232 feet long on her
keel, fifty feet beam, twenty-one feet
deep, and her tonnage register is
176S.77. Size can carry 5000 tons of
coal on draft of twenty feet. She
has centerboard of the best quality
of white oak thirty-three feet long,
fifteen feet deep, and nine inches thick,
and nine hatchways, each twenty -four
feet cross decks aud eight feet fore
and aft. Her outside planking, tie
heaviest ever put on schooner, is si1
inches thick, and at the gunwale sev en-
inches. The five lower masts are called
foremast, mainmast, mizzenmast, Jig.
germast, and spankermast, and are
each 115 feet in length, the topmasts
being each iifty-six feet long. The
jibboom is seventy-five feet long, and
the schooner spreads 1000 feet of can.

Slaughter of Trees.

II is estimated that 5000, 900 acres
OF forest land are cleared every year,
and that in the ten years previous to
1876 100000 acres were burned
over simply to clear the land. Ten
years ago it was estimated that the
timber Of New York was disappearing
at the rate of $50, 900 acres n year.
Since then laws have been passed which
have restrained to some extent the
w3odmnn's AK, but it is still welded
far too freely, says the Boston Tran
script.
The forests are the natural friends
and protectors of the earth aud of
SzAn. . ley not only minister to the
aesthetic part of mans nature by slim
ulatinS and feeding his sense OF beau
ty, but they also have practical uses
and values which may not be safely
ignored. Some of the direst calami-
ties that have befallen the countries of
the Old World may be trace to the
destruction of forests, and many dis
eases that have swept away great mul.
titudes of human beings, and that
were accounted ''ulEluc NlbllAllOIlS,
may doubtless be traced to the same
cause.
The warning given this country by
George p. Marsh many years ago, in
his work entitled "Man and Nature"
and by others who have given careful
study to this subject, has not been
wholly in vain. 4 reactionary move
ment has already begun, and its good
results are visible in many quarters.
Perhaps it is not too much to hope
that our friends and protectors, the
trees of the forest, which have for us
so many precious uses-keeping full
the streams and rivers, lessening the
heat of summer and the cold of winter,
guarding the fields against ruinous
floods and freshets, Offering a shelter
and pleasure ground to the well and
a perfect sanitarium to the sick-will
be preserved from further ruthless de-
struction for the JOY and blessing of
this and future generations.

One thing which has changed The
appearance of the country greatly in
the dairying region is the practice,
now very prevalent, OF "dehornin9 4"
cattle. The farmers of northern New
England seem to have made the sud.
den discovery that horns on COWS
were gigantic mistake of the Crea
tor, to be remedied radically and ut
once. They say that the cows, il
horned, hook each other dreadfully
when they are watering, and rattle
their horns together in the stanchions,
and otherwise misconduct themselves,
So they get dehorning machine"
and fasten the poor cows neck in it,
and with one swoop deprive her of
her chief ornaments and her natural
protection, and leave her wretched,
shorn creature, that no artist would
think OF painting. The loss of her
horns seems to turn the COW into II
kind of sheepish and furtive being
she has not the confident and self-sat-
isfed air that usually marks her kind.
One has no idea of the difference
which horns make in the expression OF
cattle until ne sees herd OF these de.
horned and deIormed animals. -Bos-

animal, and was caught in the act OF
leading it away by the halter, fol
which he was sentenced to twenty
years imprisonment. The warden OF
the penitentiary was at first puzzled
to know what to do with so small
convict, but finally invented task
that reflects credit upon his ingenuity,
He placed two bricks at each end OF

rascal two more, ordered him to carry
them to one of the piles, lay them
down, pick up the other two, which in
turn were to be carried to the farther
end, exchanged again, and SO on, back
and forth all day long, always carry

he would be punished if he failed to
pile the bricks neatly or broke any OF
them. He was kept at this task until

Now that the Atlanta Exposition has
secured an appropriation OF 5000, 900
from the United States, applications
for space are coming in rapidly from
foreign countries. The exposition is
already assuming an international as.
pect and is sure to attract thousands
of PEOPLE from all over the United
States and Europe.
Ono of the interesting features of
the exposition will be an exhibit by
the eolored people. IL will be the first
of its kind which has ever been made,
and Il will be an education to the out
side world in showing what the colored
people of the South have accomplished
right at their homes since they were
given their freedom. II will be very
attra,tive, not only to the colored peo-
pie themselves but to the people of
the entire country, and it is doubtful
il any other one feature will bring as
many people to see the exposition as
does This colored exhibit.
Atlanta, the city of the exposition
OF 1926, is very pretty place of 90,-
900 population. The houses are new,
and are like those of a progressive
Northern or Western city rather than
like hose of an old Southern town.
The streets are bustling and active.
The adjacent country is hilly. The
city Is 1880 feet above sea level, rest
ing a. point where the topography
changes from the neutrality-suspicious.
Of the Blue Ridge to the rolling and
finally level pine lands of Southern
Georgia. The air is fresh and brac-
ing, coming, as it does, in stiff breezes
from the nearby mountains, and, in
fact, the place is SO like Northern
city IN the style of its streets and
houses, its climate and its activity,
that people from Massachusetts, feel
as much at home here as does the man
who comes from Savannah or New
Orleans.
Every foot of ground around the
city is of historic interest, and all in
oil there is not q Southern city that
could be more attractive TO n visitor

Electrified by Water.

From many observations and ez'

drops of water falling upon water or
wet bodies generate electricity, the
water becoming electrified positively,
and the gas escaping negatively elec.
tritled from the force OF the fall, and
light impurities in the water diminish
the effect considerably. The essential
conditions OF electrification are the
concussions among the drops of them
selves and against the wet rock, no
effect being due to the waters fall
through the air and its dispersion by
it. A jet of water falling from an in'
sulated tank to an insulated pail elec'
trifed the latter positively, while the
negative electritcation of the sur.

HE rouGHr WITH A BURGLAR.
Billiards. Constable Tells . story OF .
Midnight Combat.


Constable George Shields. OF Ballard.
says that on Friday night about Il O'Clock
he vas attacked by a burglar in his rssi6-
ence on Wilbert street. He had just re-
turned home and was reading letter.
Some one knocked on the back door,
Shields answered the knock and opened
the door. when the man erasped him by
the throat snd a fierce struggle ensucd.
Shields broke loose, grabbed chair and
struck his assallant powerful blow, when
he made for the door with Shields after
him. Shields by this time succeeded in
drawing his revolver. and fred parting
shot at his midnight visitor.
Il. w. Grover. who lives close by, heard
noise. closely followed by pistol shot.
Mr.. Grover went out to investigate the
cause of the disturbance and found Shields
uttering inartieulate sounds in his
fShieidsD yard. Shields could not give
any description of his assailnnf. and, as
the occurrence was an unusual one in that
peaceful neighborhood, Grover concluded
that shields had an attack of nightmare
aud was fighting ghost OF his own imagi-
nation.
The next morning Shields was in less
agissted condition and stated that his WIS.,
itor wore white cloth over his face, that
he knocked the lamp of the table, break
ing II into thousand pieces. and that the
fierce struggle between him aud the burg
lar took place in total darkness. Shields
