as the territory embraced within the United
States, and some of our finest species are
planted in Europe more extensively than
the trees of any other country.
In the very first rank stands the
Liriodendron tulipifera, the great tulip tree
of the Atlantic and Southern States. In
many districts this is almost swamp tree
but it win grow in dry localities if there is
lime in the soil. 1t is one of the largest
and most valuable trees of the Atlantic
forests, and reaches it's greatest develop
ment in the lower part of the Wabash val
ley and in the mountains of Tennessee and
North Carolina. The wood is largely
manufactured into lumber and used for
interior finishing and many domestic pur-
poses. For this reason alone the tree
should be planted on large scale in Cal
lforDla but we are now considering chiefly
It's value for ornamental planting, and
more particularly for avenues.
The liriodendron belongs to the snowy
family of magnolias, all of which are ma
tlves OF Asia and America and em1nently
adapted to arboretums. 1t is difficult to
say why Magnolia grandiflora should be
SO much more often planted in California
than Its lovely relative, the lrlodendron.
Magnificent as is a fine specimen of the
superb white-howered southern magnolia,
the trees are brittle, and it would be diff
hcuIt to secure sufficient uniformity along
an avenue. The magnolia requires good
deal OF special attention in the way of
watering, training and stalking while young
III order to secure shapely trees. The lir-
lodendron, on the other hand makes q
well-shaped tree with very little trouble, is
easily grown from seed and thrives won
derfully in the Santa Clara valley. Micbaux,
IN his North American Silva, describes the
tulip tree forests of former days in Ken
lucky where many used to stand of from
SIX to eight feet in diameter and from 100
to l40 feet in height. In that region the
trees begin to bloom when six or eight
years old, and in California will do even
better, although in England, according to
1indley d Moore's Treasury of Botany,
they seldom bloom until past the twentieth
year, A tree near Niles, in Alameda
County, is about fifteen years old and
stands about thirty feet high, with noble
sweep of branches. A mile of such trees
on each side of a highway would be beauti-
ful at ,all seasons of the year, and espe-
cially so when in bloom. 1t is not to be
supposed that this tree would ever become
too large for proper avenue uses, because
1t grows slowly after the twentieth year
and its ordinary height is hardly above
sixty or seventy-fiVe feet.
OF all the trees in North America of de-
ciduous leaves the liriodendron is proba-
bly, the cleanest in appearance and the
most regular in the disposition of its
branches, which seem to form almost an
ideal type of the deciduous trees. The
growth OF the leaves in early spring is
from the terminal buds, which swell in a
peculiar manner and send out five or six
leaves very rapidly and in a charming

they can go right on winning and never
seem to realize that luck may turn against
them" remarked the clerk of downtown
hotel in a general conversation about
sporting matters. 81 remember guest of
ours who had streak of fortune and won
500 in one day when the races were going
on at Ivy City four or five years ago. He
came back to the hotel that night jubilant
and told me of his winnings. He said he
had no doubt but that he could keep it up
right along and thought it the easiest game
on earth to beat. This was his first
experience in playing the races. / advised
him strongly against playing any more,
but he laughed at my counsel
''In less than a week the 500 he had won
was all gone, and he hadn't cent of cash,
but his wife happened to have some ele-
CANT iewelry, and her diamonds found
their way to an avenue pawnshop. The
poor woman grieved to part with her rings
and bracelets, and sorroWed still more
when a number of very swell imported
gowns were missing from her trunk. The
man only quit when he hadn't an article in
the world left on which he could raise a
dollar. The first days winning was fatal,
and the chances aresthat if he had lost that
day that he would have left the game
alone. "-Washingto ton Post.

A BIG BOLOGNA.
Over Half Mile Long Was This Great
Sausage.


The revival of the trades.after the long
stagnation which followed in the wake of
the crusades was responsible for many
fantastic procession freaks in the larger
towns of Western Europe. For an in
stance we are told that in the Chancellor's
procession which took place at Nuremberg
in 1887 the bakers of the town exhibited a
loaf of bread weighing 1141 pounds, and
that in the same procession a cheese
maker exhibited "star-shaped cheese
which put three horses on their mettle
to pull it through the streets mounted
on a goodly dray." The old ac-
count further says that this bread
and cheese, which was distributed free of
charge among the merrymakers, twas din
ner sufficient for upward of 5000 persons"
In the New Years procession at Konigs-
berg in 1858 a bologna sausage exhibited
by the "butchermen" was 622 feet in length
and was carried on the shoulders of sixty
seven men and boys. The one exhibited
in the same city in the year 1888 was over
1900 feet in length and weighed 434 pounds.
But the giant of all sausages, and perhaps
the largest thing of the kind ever made.
was exhibited by the Konigsberg butchers
on New Years day in 1901, when they
paraded the streets with sausage $3.50 feet
in length and weighing nearly 1000 pounds.

place is where that species is most per-
fectly at home, and more nearly attains its
maximum size and beauty. The Monterey
cypress at Cypress Point is one of the
greater glories of the California forest
but the cypress is not proper avenue
tree.
Eucalyptus globulus, and other coarse
species, when planted in great and dark
masses upon our hillsides or in our val
Ieys, form very impressive feature of the
landscape, and such groves will increase
III their grandeur for many years to come
until they may become as famous as some
OF the gum forests of Australia; but there
could hardly be more unsuitable choice
than any of these eucalypti for avenue
purposes. 1t is true that there are euca-
iyptl, such as E. citriodoro, and blossom
ing species, such as the inimitable scarlet
+. ticifolia, which would add glory to any
boulevard, but these many other choice
species are too tender to be planted, except
in frostless localities.
1t is not the purpose of this article to
furnish a complete list of desirable avenue
trees, but rather to call attention to few
trees of peculiar grace or nobility of APP
pearance which should properly find place
in such an avenue, not as single trees, but
as sole occupants of considerable dis
lance. A forty-mile boulevard would prob

such boulevard were constructed the
eastern side of the bay would soon be able
to continue it from San Jose to Oakland
as was suggested about forty years ago by
the father of Senator John L. Beard OF
Alameda County.
Almost the first thought that occurs
when reference is made to such an i'm
mense boulevard is that it offers a unique
opportunity for planting a large variety of
very beautiful trees, properly labeled, so
as TO have distinct scientific value, as
well as to serve for pure ornament. 1t is
sometimes said that we should plant palm
trees in double, treble or quadruple rows,
all the way from San Francisco to San
Jose, and il the best species were selected
and given especial care, such an avenue
would in time become one OF the most
magnificent in America.
Undoubtedly the type of palm to be
chosen Tor such purpose would be the
wild date (PhGniX Canariensis), and not
our common desert palm (WashingtOnia

such an immense scale would not only be
enormously expensive, but would involve
much delay and a great deal more care
than is necessary for other trees, while, on
the other hand, the desired effect could be
produced at much less cost by distributing
groups OF palms at prominent curves, or
by planting palms at regular intervals, far
apart, along the lines of deciduous trees.

aged IL precisely the same way, so as to be
more effective at far less expense. Besides
this, the deciduous trees are much better
adapted for the main portions of an
avenue, because they offer more variety
and adapt themselves more easily to differ
ent locations.
In planting deciduous trees. upon a
large scale for avenue purposes, every
change IN soil and exposure should be
carefully considered and the proper adapt

HENRY CLAY AT WHIST.
Wade Hampton's Father Paid to De-
nounce His Play.

Wade Hampton's Father Paid to De-
nounce His Play.
"One of my boyhood recollections, said
General Wade Hampton, "refers to Henry
Clay. He was frequent visitor at my
fathers house in South Carolina. Both
Clay and my father were ardent whist
players, and nothing was more to their
minds than the collection of a brace of
gentlemen equally addicted to whist, and
then the quartet would play for hours
While the name of whist might serve to
imply game where silence reigned, my
father and Clay didn't play whist that way
They exulted audibly over success, and
did not hesitate when they were playing as
partners to violently point out mistakes
the other had made, and attributed defeat
to the others ignorance and utter lack of
natural intelligence. Indeed, on occasions
particularly trying, they were even known
to apply hard names to one another. This
they did in no slanderous spirit but to
brighten up and sharpen the wits of the
other to the improvement of the play"
says the Chicago Times-Herald. AS they
were sitting down to game as partners
one evening Clay remarked:
" It's great outrage the way we talk
to each other, and my idea now, at the
outset, is for each of US to put up 500 to
belong to the one who is first called hard
names by the other. If you assail me
the money is mine; if forget myself you
take it.
my father readily agreed. He felt in a
mild, agreeable mood. He was confident
he would never again be a prey to the
slightest impulse to speak harshly to his
dear friend Clay. And, besides, it was his
recollection that Clay was the man who
ragged and did all the loud talking. So my
father cheerfully placed the $40 on top
of Clay's. He thought it would be
a good lesson to the blue-gr orator
to lose it. AS they proceeded with the
game Clay made some excessively
thick-headed and ill-advised plays. He led
the wrong cards; he trumped the wrong
tricks; he did everything idiotic in whist
that he well could My fathers blood be-
gan to boil. AS he and Clay lost game
higher. Still he bit his lip and suffered a
silence. 1t went on for hours, until Clay
made some play of browning imbecility
which lost him and my father the eleventh
game. Flesh and blood could stand no
more. My father sternly pushed the $40
over to Clay.
"'Why,' said Clay, opening his gray
eyes with look of innocence and amaze
ment, why do you do that? You haven't
said a word
E'No,' retorted my father, but I'm
going to tell you, sir, that you are the most
abject idiot, the most boundless imbecile
that ever dealt hand at whist. Yes, sir:
] repeat it, you are the - fool ever met
in my life. ,"
