The Gardenera' Chronicle gives some
details concerning q tree of Colombia
which truly merits the name vegetable
salaman1er Thi1 tree the Rhopala
odorata, of the order Proteaceae, pre-
sents a remarkable power of resstanca
to fire, In the district of Rolima it is
customary every year during the dry
season to set fire to the plains In order
to destroy all the dry weeds that during
rains, might interfere with the growth
of the young and tender vegetation
This periodical conilaGration naturally
produces the most disastlo eject upon
the trees. which gradually disappear
without being replaced. since 1t is diff
ficult for an Old tree to resist, ana. sun
more so for young shoot OF one or two
years. a single tree forms one eNeep-
ton. and that Is the one eboye mention
ed-the Rhopala. Small distorted and
scraggy, and having Wild and desoiate
appearance. this tree not only docs not
suffer from the fire. but derives profit
therefrom. 1t gradually establishes It's
self In localities abandoned by other
trees and installs Itself therein. we
have here a very topical case of sur
viVal of the fttest. 1t, alone, capable
of resisting the fire. witnesses the o's-
appearance of it's rivals, and is seen to
gradually encroach upon an always
more extended domain. It's resistance
to fire Is due TO its bark. The external
portion of the latter, more than half an
inch thick, and formed of dead cells and
iibres, acts ike a protecting Jacket with
respect to the more central and living
parts. and 1t is this, that assures its tri-
umph in its struggle for existence
against nre.--Boston Transcript.

Senator Blackburn and, after a
long silence, the governor has
Issued statement, in which he re-
sents the imputation that his own
ambition to 60 to the senate pre-
vented him from calling the legis-
lature to meet. The governor says
h4 will call special session, but is
of the opinion that successor to
Blackburn cannot be elected until
after March 4. The Republicans
hope to elect straight party man
but may not succeed in doing so.
The Republicans also hope to re-
elect Senator Pritchard in North
Carolina. but IL is doubtful whether
they will be able TO do so. They
count on having Al votes if they
re-elrct Pritchard and elect Re
publican from Kentucky. One
man will still be needed for ma
jority with the vote of the vice
president. In this estimate Sena-
tors Cannon, Dubois, Mantle Petit
grew, Squire and Teller, who sup.
ported Bryan and Sewall, are not
included.
Already there is talk of COM
bination of Republicans and gold
Democrats. Senator Lodge has
been quoted as saying that he has
given the subject much attention
and feels sure there need be no
anxiety concerning the passage OF

such Democrats as Smith
Of New Jersey ahd Murphy of New
York will vote with the Republi-
cans, or at least decline to vote
and remain impaired. The outlook
is that the six boiling senators or
the gold Democrats will dictate all

pleasing prospect for the new ad
ninistratiOn.--Plain Dealer.

These figures make certain sew.
eral things of more than passing
interest. For instance;
/. That there was no popular
landslide in behalf of Mckinley.
2. That the purality of the re-
publican candidate was not the
100000 predicted, nor the 100000
figured out by the eastern press,
but only 592,666.
3. 1t is not the largest plurality
ever received by n candidate for
the presidency, being below Grants
in 1872, but little over his in 1868,
and hut little over Lincoln's in 1860
and Buchanan's in 1856.
4. That the tabular statement in
vented by The New York World
and made the basis of all news
paper estimates in an arrant fake.
o. That the democratic party, re-
presented by those who voted for
its presidential candidate, was. de-
feated by Il very narrow margin,
and
6. That the party is stronger and
in better fighting trim today than
it ever has been after a defeat.
Our readers may sum these
things up to suit themselves. They
are simply The irresistible conclus-
ions to be drawn from the figures
compiled by The New Orleans
Times Democrat, which will not
vary from those TO be officially pro-
to the extent of one-half

LATIN AMERICA Is READY.

American Republic In the
Right Direction.

City of fieXico, Dec. S.-There is a
keen feeling of disappointment here
that President Cleveland could not
see his way to recognizing the bellig-
erency OF the Cubans, for Mexican
sympathy is undoubtedly with them,
and this country and mcst Of Latin
America, with the possible exception
CT Chile, is ready to follow the lead OF
the great republic, and today it is said
here that Mckinley will take a more
generous attitude.
The Mexican Herald says President
Cleveland's attitude toward Cuba is
another instance CT letting Il dare

He shows sympathy for the Cuban
pGtriot3, but argues that they have
abandoned the pretcnse Of govern
ment in these portions OF the island
that they occupy, and he contends
that the inefficient semblance of au-

island which would be jeopardized by

damages sustained by American in
vestors In Cuba constitute valid claims
against Spain.

You have, OF course, heard the snap

doubtedly you have also noticed that
this sound is more pronounced during

Of extremely minute sounds. On ac-

The suggestion is now made to util

may be accomplished by placing in tht
earth five or six yards from each other
two bars Of iron, split and separated at
their lower ends, SO as TO increase the
surface of contact The earth at the
face of these bars should be kept satu-

bars are to be connected by wires with
