A Fnrnons Elm Cut Down.

Tho famous old elm which for 14 centuries stood on Somerville avenue. at the corner of Central street. Somer- vile, has been cut down. The tree was on the line of march when tho British forces retreatod from Lexington. It bore a placard which furnished the in- formation that the tree was planted in 177- by Thomas Rand. The exact year is not known. The erection of a building on the land near the tree which stood in the middle of the sidewalk, di- rectly in front of the building, made is necessary to remove 1t. There was op- position, and 1t was only after much de- liberation by tho city government that the order for the removal of the tree was passed. Many souvenir hunters have carried off pieces of the tree. Boston Transcript.

A NEW TANGLED STORM DOOR
Advantages and Drawbacks of A Recent
 eontrivance Tn Gotham Building.

Advantages and Drawbacks of A Recent
 oontrivance In Gotham Building.
 Tho new Postal Telegraph building at Broadway and Murray street has pat ent revolving storm door, which. the inventor says, is the first of it's kind iu- troduced into this city The door has four wings, after the fashion of a turn stlie There are four doors, in fact. each of them bound with rubber weather straps The person entering the building pushes against the wing onAhe right, and the oontrivance begins to reYolye. By the time he has turned the wing far enough to get inside the building the one be- hind him has closed
 There is commendable absence of cold drafts in the work of this revolving door and no turning of knobs, only a little confusion sometimes when two persons try to go in opposite directions at the same time. Two young women, for instance, approached the entrance on Saturday afternoon, one of whom went to the right and the other to the left Of course they were pushing against each other, and hearing the laughter of some men behind them they pushed the harder. neither wishing to be defeated i'll what she deemed test of muscle. So they pushed until some men waiting to get in explained to the would be amazons that tho door would open only from the right anyhow, and that push ing on the loft would prevent it from opening at all Thereupon one of the men opened the right door with sim pie motion. The girls were perfectly happy over the fact that they had at least kept each other out.
 The next to have an argument with the new tangled patent was an excit- able, well dressed Irishman, who also pushed to tho left. Not being successful he turned partly round to investigate, when bustling young man showed the door outward with rush, and the Irish mans silk hat was knocked off and his dignity otherwise badly ruffled. He was partly carried inside the building by the revolution, so that by the time he got outside again to expostulate his un- known assailant was lost in the 'shuf- f1e' of the Broadway crowd, uncon- seious of having injured anybody s feel ings
 Although the revolving door at times affords as much amusement as a scene ill Drury Lane pantomime. it is said, on the whole, to be a success. New York Tribune

HE STUCK TO HIS FRIEND.
An Act of Heroism Which Saved Wound
 ed Mans Life.

An AcE Of defolSIn W men Saved n " Oun0-
 ed Mans Life.
 A young man named Henry Brault, a resident of Peterboro, Ont, recently performed an act of heroism, actuated by friendship, which is worthy of rec ord among the heroic deeds of heroic men of any age. Brault and another young man, John Janieson, were at work in tho wild Madawaska region for the St. Anthony Lumber company. Jamieson met with a severe accident, which rendered him delirious, and Brault started with him for civilization where surgical treatment could be had. They had travelled on foot but a few hundred yards when Jamteson' \ strength gave out and he became help less Brault, determined to save his companion, shouldered the invalid and started on his long, cold tramp of some 40 miles to the nearest railroad. With out a moments sleep, and bearing, be- sides his human burden, pack of pro- visions, Brault continued his journey four days and nights. Almost as help less from exhaustion and fatigue as his friend was from illness he had the sat- isfaction of reaching the end of his journey and placing Jamieson where he was able to be properly treated. .-Des Moines Leader.

AN AMAZED INDIAN CHIEF.
Two stars Introduction to tine Kinetoscope
 and tho Phonograph.

Two Stars Introduction lo the kinetOscop0
 and tho Monograph.
 Probably no Indian who ever visited Washington to counsel with the great father returned to his tribe better satis- fled with the results of his trip than the Sisseton Sioux Two Star. He not only accomplished the object of his mission, hut he was entertained in q style that falls to the lot of few of the nations s wards. Agent Keller was with him. as we'll as the interpreter Joe Brown. The latter, by the way, is a somewhat notable figure himself. He is son of that Ma for Brown who commanded the troops ssat the battle of Birch Cooley during the Sioux outbreak. He has lived all his life among these Indians and now keeps a large store on the reservation.
 Two Star was sent here by his tribe to ask the immediate payment to them of $199, 900 of their principal now in the custody of the United States. This sum amounts to $1, 699. GOO. The h. dians are i'll very destitute circumstances this winter, owing to an almost com plete failure of their crops, and the in- terest due them is not sufficient to carry them over until next fall. The impair ment of the principal is matter which by law rests entirely with the president. In this case he has promised to follow the recommendation of the commission or of Indian affairs, which is to the ef- feet that the grant be made
 It is a somewhat singular fact that, although Two Star was one of General Silbey scouts and has always associated with the whites upon terms of the friendliest intimacy, ho cannot speak word of English His enjoyment of the white man s amusement is, however, none the less keen. Senator Kyle's clerk. Duncan Mcfarland, took him ill to soc the kinetoseope As he looked in upon the picture i'll motion look of amaze ment, not unmixed with degree of consternation, crept over his face. He stepped back and looked around, above and below the case to find out what caused the exhibition. It was some time before he could be persuaded to again apply the eye to the aperture, and when the machine stopped with 8 click the noble red man jumped as if he had heard the warwhoop of some of his tribal enemies.
 He was equally amazed, but none the less pleased, with the photograph and insisted upon having a selection by the Marine band repeated. He was taken to an amateur athletic and gymnastio per formance at the Columbia Athletic club and witnessed the exhibition of skill and prowess with a delight that was al- most childlike. Just before his depar- ture for the west Two Star said to our correspondents:
 s'I was here in 1867, but no one paid any attention to me then. think Wash ington is much nicer place now. It will be no use for me to toll my people about the things 1 have seen and heard (referring to the kinetoseope and phono- graph, for no one would believe me. They would say was not speaking the truth "-Gor. St. Paul Pioneer Press.

The Animated Old Snag Against Which

The Animated Old Snag Against Which
 an Insurance Company Kan.
 This is the way a man named Gaines of St. Peter, Minn., got the better of an insurance company: Many years ago MT. Gaines insured his life for $3, 800. After many years of payment of 800 a year premium, at tho age of 70 years he asked the officers of the company how much they would pay him to cancel his policy. They offered him $2, 900. Ho re- fused to take it, but made them this proposition, 'fIf you will givo mo $416 a year until death, which is S8 week, l will cancel tho policy. :"
 Agreed, " said tho company which thought it had q oinoh in it's favor, as he would not live many years.
 Since that time MT. Gainos has lived IS years, and the company has paid him his yearly stipulation of $416, which up to this time has amounted to ST, 488. The saving of the 800 premium in tho IS years and the interest make it the snug sum of over SIS, 900 that the old man gained by his bargain. MT. Gaines is we'll preserved at 89 and bids fair to re- oeive many moro payments at the hands of the company, which struck tough piece of human timber upon which to base its calculations.

Whore Bustles Are Coming to the Fore

 The wife of a gentleman who has been conducting an auction store at Lake Crystal reeited an amusing moi dent to us the other day. Among his stock of goods he had 100 ladies bus ties, which he found it impossible to dis pose of. His wife devised brilliant plan, and the next evening the gentle man was smilingly selling tho bustles for dog muzzles at 40 cents apiece. He disposed of the entire lot and tele- graphed for 200 more. The second lot went faster than the first and every dog in Lake Crystal wears a hustle for 8 muzzle, tho penalty for nonbustled dogs being death. Peter (Minn. Jour nal

POPULISTS HAVE LITTLE BIT OF

POP U LISTS HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF
TROUBLE WITH THEIR PLATFORM.
Trenton. n. j., Sept. 2.-The guber-
pies Party of New Jersey was held in
this city today. William B. Ellis, Of
Trenton, was nominated for governor
after several others had declined the
honor. There were thirty-six dele
gates at the convention, witch was pre-
sided over by Thomas Fl. Proctor, of
Cum berland county, chairman of the
state committee. One woman dele
gate was present-Mrs. E. ]. White
head, Of Westfield. There was a long
discussion over the adoption of the
party platform. The committee on
resolutions reported Il long platform,
reaffirming the national platform
adopted in 1892, with a number of
planks of state import. Among those
was one strongly favoring the Swiss
initiative and referendum system of
lawmaking. Other planks favored
female suffrage, declared for lower
public salaries, and the abolition of
the fee system; advoca ting the state
conducting the saloons; demanding
the election of the President and vice
President Of the United States, and
United States senator's, by popular
vote; invegh against monopoly, and
condemned tenure of land unless the
same be occupied and in use. Joseph
r.. Buchanan, of Newark, who is an
ardent champion of direct legislation,
succeeded, after much discussion, in
having the platform adopted without
any reference to any Of the commit
tees recommendations save the 'reaf-
firming of the Omaha platform and
the plank respecting direct legisla-
ton The convention afterward
adopted a separate resolution favor
able to Woman Suffrage, and the
chairman was ordered to send the fol-
lowing telegram to Eugene V. Debs,
now confined in Jail in Woodstock, ILL.,:
