The growth OF the Sandwich islands and
the demand for vessels has greatly helped
the shipbuilding business here. During
the past sixteen years nine steamers have
been built for the Inter-Island Navigation
Company of Honolulu, two being built
this summer, the James Spears and the
Scray. The Scray is now on her way to
San Francisco and the Spears is about
ready to leave San Francisco for Homo

The tug Wanjerer and the United States
revenue cutter Richard Rush were also
built here The Rush has been in Boring

built.

There is a white oak tree near La
porte, Ind, that may we'll puzzle ma
turalists with the vagaries of its
growth. The tree is nine feet in cir
conference at the base, and there are
no branches of any size below fifteen
feet from the ground. There the great
bole divides into a number of limbs.
Two leaving the trunk about twenty
inches apart, grow west, their lines
6verging for some six feet, and then
each bending toward the other. Twelve
feet from the body of the tree they
unite again, making perfect oval, and
out of this grow two smaller branches.
AS If not satisfied with that expressed
disregard for the laws of nature, this
old tree has performed another feat.
Six feet from it's base grows another
white oak, less than half its size, and
no sooner does the smaller tree arrive
at the charmed circles Of those branch
ing limbs than one of them grows right
into it, ard is absorbed. The second
tree is very much larger twenty feet
from the ground than at its base.
