ETY. and rarity of some of the species.
Various theories were advanced to &C
count for the phenomenon; some
thought that the mass of masonry
raised so high in the air intercepted
wandering germs of plants, which the
southern sun quickened into life;
others, that the birds that colonized
there by thousands and built their
nests beneath the jutting frieze, had
transported the seeds from distant
lands; others, that some property in
the cement, prepared in the first
century of the Christian era, had
proved favorable to exotic vegetation
All was theoretical; no conclusion was
reached. But the fact remained that
many plants, elsewhere unknown be-
meath the Italian sky, there blossomed
and bore fruit.
About the middle of the eighteenth
century an English botanist made an
herbarium of THE Flora of the Coli
scum" which mum bered more than
four hundred distinct species.
A century ago it was decided that
this growth might be, in some unde-
fined manner, prejudicial to the public
health, and most of it was removed;
to-day only simple flowers, small
shrubs and vines remain to tell of the
luxuriant vegetation which fringed
and crumbled the ragged parapets of
that once magnificent amphitheater.
Those who were privileged to see
that majestic ruin thus clothed in it's
garb of beauty, Landed the benefcent
Mother Nature who, with vines and
flowers, kindly concealed the scars of
time. A fragment of verse from an I'M
known source lends its poetic coloring
to this prosaic fact, adds deeper sig
nifcance to the idea suggested and in
vests it with new beauty:
There is no ruined life beyond the smile Of
heaven,
And compromising grace for every loss is given
The Coliseum's SHELLS loved of flower and vine,
And through its shattered rents the peaceful
planets shine

Ladies Mus Remove Their Hats.


1t will seem strange to the American
woman, with her Declaration of indie
pendence traditions, to hear that the
director of the French opera has as
sumed the authority to make a hard
and fast rule with respect to ladies'
bonnets. Even small bonnets are for
hidden altogether for the occupants of
the pit stalls on Saturdays, that being
the only night when ladies are admit
ted to this part of the house. Formerly
the stalls at the French theaters were
Invariably reserved for men only, but
one after another their rules have re-
Taxed until the only one where it is re-
tanned absolutely is the Theater Fran
caise. Ever since the question of bon
nets has been constantly mooted, but
hitherto without any actual result, it
being so much against the habit for
ladies' to appear in evening dress in
such places that no one under the rank
OF an opera director could have ven
tured on their adopting it.

it meets tidewater. A few hundred
yards eastward is the rude beach and
farmyard leading to the old mill. An
old Dutch house, still retaining its wide
porch and broad, low-eaved gables,
faces mill and mill stream. High tides
rise all about the house, submerge it's
flower garden, and flood it's cellar.
The mill, three-and-a-half-sto
shingled structure, overhangs the tide
race in which it's water wheel once
dipped and turned. The mill was
built in 1889 by Shute & Stanton, local
millers of that day. It was driven by
the tide, and for several generations it
ground the wheat from neighboring
farms. Robert Reid became owner of
the mill about the middle of the last
century, and was reputed an honest
though somewhat testy miller. One
Waldron afterward became owner or
lessee, and in 1899 a town committee
was appointed to regulate Miller VALID
ron's toll charges.
The old mill continued it's work with
various fortunes and successive owners
until within the last few years. When
the region round about ceased to be a
wheat-growing country the mill ground
western grain into flour, and the
crooked little stream leading to the
sound brought upon its tide vessels
that bore grain and grist.
Reds mill is now slowly falling into
ruins. The wreck of it's wheel and
other machinery is visible at the rear.
Many of it's shingles near the ground
have been torn off as relics or to kim
die fires. The great oaken beams re-
main seemingly sound. An oysterman
now kenne his tools IF trade in the
large ground floor apartment of the
mill, and in the water just outside he
has fenced space where newly-caught
oysters may be fattened.
Every high tide brings mass of sea-
weed and marsh hay about the mill.
The short, stone-built isthmiau road
that leads to the mill door still resists
the action of the tides, and the visitor
of to-day may drive quite to the door
step, as Westchester people were ac-
customed to drive century and a half
ago, when the new shingles of the
structure were not yet weather.

A TREE PHENOMENON.
Mountain Ash Growing on the
Tower of a Church.
For Thirty Years 1t Has Been a Source of
Wonder and Qualification to
the Unitarian Brethren
of Utica, N. Y

The spectacle of a tree standing upon
a tower of the Unitarian church in the
city of Utica, N. Y, has aroused much
interest as well as. discussion as to
what is really essential to plant life in
order that development may continue.
This mountain ash, says the Ameri-
can Agriculturist, has been growing
for thirty years upon a narrow ledge
of sandstone. sprouting from joint in
the masonry less than an inch in width;
the main stem just above the stone at
the present time has diameter of five
inches. The tree is fifteen or sixteen
feet in height and possibly eight feet
across its widest part; the branches
are thick and numerous, and for some
years each autumn they have been
bright with the vivid scarlet berries
peculiar to this species of tree.
Protruding from a chink in NOR
tared wall, forty-two feet above the
street, exposed to the glare of the sun
in summer and the frosts of many
severe winters, its roots only having
the mortared interstices of masonry
through which to penetrate in search
of nutriment, the question may well
be asked: Where does this tree obtain
the elements that enter into the COM
position of all plant life? Is it pos
sible that it is sustained like the
known air plants, by absorbing from
the air and through its foliage the ele-
n,ants Tnon which IL lives and thrives 9
Or does dust settle in the crevices?
At different times similar questions
have agitated the scientific world, no
tably in the case of the Coliseum, that
famous ruin of Rome, which was COW
cred for centuries with a wondrous
growth of vegetation. Walls, arches
and crumbling galleries were green
with plants and shrubs, the quantity
not more surprising than was the vari-

THE NEW EXPLOSIVE.

1t Is Called Schnebelite aud Was Invented
by Priest.
A man of peace has invented another
terrible instrument of war. He is NJ
Fable Schnebelin, and his invention,
powerful explosive, has been named
after him, schnebelite.
Like cordite, in which military au-
thorities have been so much interested,
schnebelite is smokeless powder. A
trial of the new explosive was recently
made. In the first place the able made
some of his powder in the presence of
the crowd, for the simplicity of it's man
ufacture and the rapidity with which it
can be made without any especial ap-
paratus are the first advantages which
are claimed for the new powder. TAX
ing some of the powder in it's manu-
featured state the able placed it on an
anvil. He commenced by hitting the
grains with hammer, but the concus-
sion did nothing but grind the powder
fine. Friction, too, was proved to
have no effect upon the substance, and
then the able applied lighted match
to small heap of it. Not even a blade
of grass was blown up. The powder
burned with bright light, but with
out the least defagration. Nothing
short of Theoretically sealed quantity
is susceptible to conclusion. The car
tridges were made up with a govern
ment bullet; the range was 100 yards,
and the bullet went through an g.
inch plate of Bessemer steel and
through four inches of the wood
against which the plate rested. This,
too, was with the sporting powder,
which is not nearly so strong as the
concentrated or warfare powder.
