EngIand's Chestnut at Torworth.


1t is said that the largest chestnut
tree known in the world is at Mount
Etna, in Sicily, but n of the oldest
and most remarkable trees in Great
Britain is a chestnut at TOrworth, the
residence of the earl Of Ducie, near
Bristol. In the reign of Stephen, who
assembled the throne in 1875, it was, we
gather from the Naturalists' Journal,
deemed so remarkable for it's size that,
as appears upon record, it was well
known as a signal boundary to the
Manor of Torworth. 1t seems prob
able that this tree is 1000 years old at
least. 1t is still in very fair vigor, and
last year produced a large crop of nuts.
1t measures nearly fifty feet in circum-
ference; the body is short-only about
ten feet in height-and it then divides
into three huge trunks, one of which
measures nearly 30 feet in girth.-West-

THE MAGNETIC sTROMsTADTs.
They Drank Iron IA and Were
MaEnetixed by Lightning.


A remarkable story comes from the
upper Yakima. Two years ago Mr..
Peter Stromstadt located on a piece
of land near what is now known as
BaroX Springs, his family consisting
of his wife and two children. A few
days after his settlement Mr.. Strom-
stadt discovered a spring close to the
shack he had erected, the water Of
which was strongly i~mpregnated with
iron, but was not unpalatable. Mr..
StrOmStadt dug out and deepened the
spring, and since July, 1893, the fam
lily have used the water for all domes-
tic purposes.
On the night of April 2 a heavy cleo
trical storm passed over the Cascades,
accompanied by vivid displays of
lightning. The following morning Mrs.
Stromstadt, while kindling the fire in
the stove, found it almost impossible
to separate the stove litter from her
hand. Her husband, hearing her call,
ran to her assistance, when, to his sur
prise, he found that he. too, expert
enced great difficulty in detaching any
article of iron with which his hands
came in contact. Breakfast was finally
prepared and the family sat down to
the meal. The children, two girls of
five and seven years, drank their milk
from tin cups, and upon raising their
cups to their lips found themselves
unable to detach the cups from their
mouths. Mr.. Stormstadt, who is an
intelligent immigrant from Sweden,
was nOnplussed, and while unable to
account for the wonderful occurrences,
nevertheless laughed at his wife's ex-
cited declarations that the family
We're bewiched. Mr.. Stromstadt has
written a friend in town. He says
that the small bed on which the chill
dren sleep is upon roller casters and
that in the morning the bed invariably
pointed north and south, the bed be-
ing a little to the east of north.
The case in n of the most remarka-
BILE on record. A member of the
Academy of Sciences, to whom the cir
cumstances were related, states that
the Stromstadt. family have become
saturated with iron, which was rem
dered magnetic by the passage of cleo
tricity from the clouds to the earth
during the storm on the night of April
2; and they are actual human magnets.

ACITY BOND ISSUE PROPOSED.

The Finance Committee of our ere
form" Republican Council met last
night and added another star perform
ance to- the "holy show this solidly
Republican body Of incompetents has
been making of itself since it's initial
meeting. The matter under discussion
was how to make S469.65727 of de-
partmental estimates, loans, salaries,
ETC.. fit the estimated receipts of s51S,-
510.76, the discrepancy being SOL
1861. 1t is a we'll known fact that
the departmental estimates have al
ways exceeded the estimated receipts
by from $4,000 to 100000; yet past
Councils have never experienced any
trouble in pruning the estimated ex-
penditures down 10 fit the estimated re~
ceipts. Our brilliant reform" body,
however, wrested with this $4,000 Of
excess Of expenditures in vain, and
after pulling it down TO S49192.73, gave
it up as a bad job and passed a resolu-
lion asking for the issue Of an even
$4,000 of bonds.
Here is an increase Of the public
debt. theme which our Republican
friends have been so fond of dilating
on, which is of special interest to the
people Of Wheeling and which is en-
tirely without reasonable excuse. The
only reason for increasing the bonded
debt Of the city at this time is that
there is no one in Council who will
shoulder any responsibility or who has
the backbone to deny anybody any
thing, for fear Of making political enc
mics. Tn this is exhibited deplorable
shortsightedness, for by such conduct
they are making political enemies Of all
the voters and taxpayers Of Wheeling
There is absolutely no good reason,
whatever, for this proposition TO in
crease the city's bonded debt, though
there is small room for doubt that it
viii pass Council, for the Committee
appears to be helpless and unable to
find any other way out of the difficulty,
though no former Council ever ex-
perieuced such trouble in enforcing a
little economy.
Coupled with the bond proposition is
a threat to the people that if they fail
to- pass the bond ordinance the electric
street lighting plant will be cut Off, and
the police and fire and street depart
ments crippled. How the people will
take this insulting threat remains to
be seen.
Last year the Democratic Council
left a surplus in the treasury of $40
6g6.O5 The trouble with the present
body is entirely too much Republican
majority. 1t is a defect the people Will
remedy the next time they get a
chance.

is still in existence, and subject to the
futile and Intellectual dilly-dallying of
the health authorities. An instant halt
on this childish policy is demanded by
every interest Of the city.

the highest disinterested authorities
within our own borders. Take, for ex-
