A RED nor TREE.
1t Was Enveioped in VapOr of Hot
StenIa
From the Macon Telegraph.


From the Macon Telegraph
Policeman Wallace made a discovery at
midnight Saturday night that for several
hours caused him to believe that the cat
echism lesson he learned years ago which
said the world would next be destroyed
by FIRE was about to be verified.
The policeman had just gone on duty
when he noticed steam arising from the
ground around dead tree on the corner
of Pine and New streets and near the Bal
lard normal school. The steam was COM
ing from under the root of the tree and
the policeman was puzzled. He moved
close to the tree, however, and was still
more surprised when he felt intense heat
coming from the tree, as though il We're a
red hot stove nj order to make sure that
he was not mistaken he attempted TO put
his hand on the tree, but the heat was
so intense that he could not do so. The
policeman was in Quandary as to what
to do about the matter, and finally sought
Policeman Edwards. The latter was very
skeptcal and inclined to guy Policeman
Wallace, but seeing he was in earnest
went with him to the tree. Sure enough
he found everything just as described by
Policeman Wallace, and after consulting
awhile they decided that a volcano was
breaking out under the tree. Finally, Po-
lieeman Drew was told of the tree, and
when Nhe saw it he was even more as
founded than the others. BY this time a
crowd of late pedestrians had collected,
and no one could solve the mystery until
at daylight it was found that a guy wire
from a neighboring telephone pole was
tied to the tree and that an electric wire
had in some manner fallen across the guy
WIRE charging the tree with electricity
Policeman Wallace, in speaking of the
occurrence yesterday, said that the tree
emitted an odor similar to that of cane
juice boiling and that it also made q SINH
lar noise. The electric light company was
notified and the wires were removed
