The Tree Killer.

Ono of the curious forest growths Of
the isthmus Of Panama and lower Cen
trail America in general is the vine
which the Spaniards call matapalo, or
tree killer. This vine first starts in
life as climber upon the trunks Of the
large trees, and, owing to its marvel
ously rapid growth, soon reaches the
lower branches At this point it first be-
gins to put out its 'feelers tender,
harmless looking root shoots, which
soon reach the ground and become as
firmly fixed as the parent stem, These
hundreds Of additional sap tubes give
the whole vine renewed lease of life,
and it begins to send ont its aerial ten
drills in all directions These intwine
themselves tightly around every limb of
the tree, even creeping to the very far
thermost tips and squeezing the life out
of both bark and leaf Things go on at
this rate but short while before the
forest giant is compelled to succumb to
the gigantic parasite which is sapplnS
its life's blood Within very few years
the tree rots and falls away, leaving the
matapalo standing erect and hollow,
like monster vegetable deviltish lying
upon it's back with its horrid tentacles
clasped together high i'll the air. Nor
gan, Central America Afoot," says,
"Corelike arbors of matapalo are to be
seen in all directions, each testifying to
the lingering death Of some sylvan giant
that formerly supported it, st Louis

BOYS THE GAME.

Ellsworth played its second league
game witt the franklin Sullivan combi-
nation thereafter to be known as the
Frankiius) at Frap&iin last Saturday, and
failed TO break its record OF never having
won a game u! Franklin. Ellsworth
error> Mt criii"al times lost her the game.
Up to the middle OF the seventh inning
the play on both sides was good; then
the visitors went 10 pieces, and the home
team piled On thc agony and scooped in
nine runs.
Crockett, the new pitcher, put up
GOOD game, but received poor support
Weeks played a tiue game. 1t was an off
day for Brady, Chase and Cushman. The
latter had especially bad luck; after
reaching first he was left four out of
the five times he WIS at bat. The num-
Der o errors is the largest that Ellsworth
has nude, or probably will make, this
year.
The good features were paratively
few, but a good stop of a high ball by
Flynn, on third, Fosters quick throw to
first from right field, and Crockett's work
with the stick, are worth notice. Both
pitchers were pounded heavily, and the
combination scored more from their abil-
ity to place their hits in the right spot.

A benefit game for the Ellsworths was
played at Wyman park last Friday, be-
tween two mines, known respectively as

score of % to 6. The one great feature
was the clean three base hit made in the
sixth inning by Joy, of the bankers.
The game was well attended, about :1G
being realized.

"a, that the vessel went ashore on Outer
Diamond, Hatteras Shoals, on the I'D,
during a dead calm, and was totally
wrecked. The captain and crew escaped
in small boats, The barkentine was laden
with sugar from Guantanamo to Delaware
Breakwater. The "Dresser" was 572 tons

and hailed from that port. The sugar
aboard was valued at $4,000.
The schooner "Addie G. Bryant" Of

for Rockland with cargo of coal, was
run into by the steamer Lebanon" from
Boston for Philadelphia, towing three
barges, of Pollock Rip, about 1230 Friday

The ship "Raphael' was wrecked in
Tanglefoot Bay, Alaska, July 7. The

salmon, and while lying in the stream
went ashore. The vessel and cargo were
