TREE CHANGES ITS QUARTZ RS
SO Large 1t Took Three Weeks to
Move 1t Fifty Feet.

An unusual feat in the transplanting
line was accomplished recently here,
says the Pittsburg Dispatch" An elm
tree fifty feet high and with trunk
eighteen inches in diameter, with roots
and all, was moved fifty feet. The tree
is the property of Mrs. William Thaw
and stood on the line of the Beechwood
Boulevard, where it traverses Mrs.
Thaw's property at Fifth avenue, near
Shady avenue
Mrs. ThaW desired to save the tree
and Contractor John Eichleay under
took to move it. A circular trench was
dug round the tree at distance of
ten feet from the trunk. At depth of
six feet the workmen excavated under
the tree, bracing the earth above with
timbers. The mass of earth, twenty
feet across and six feet deep. in which
were imbedded the tree and it's roots,
was then boxed in with planks. Screws
were placed beneath, the whole mass
raised and placed on rollers and moved
fifty feet to where great hole and
been prepared for it's occupation. 1t was
lowered into place. earth filled in as
the screws were removed. and it stood
as firm as if it had grown there
The tree was maintained in an up
right position by the weight of earth at
the roots. The whole mass weighed
seventy tons. The work occupied about
three weeks and a number of photo
graphs of the tree while in transit were
taken

People shudder at the tales of Monte
Carlo suicides, but look on with perfect
equanimity while friends and loved ones
commit just as certain suicide by neglecting
their health. Trifing disorders of the di-
gestion persistently neglected lead to lu-
purity of the blood, the tissues of the body
are imperfectly nourished, and emacia-
ton and debility follow. In the case OF
that dread disease, consumption, imperfect
ly nourished tissue is built up in the lungs,
forming a suitable soil for the germs of that
deadly disease. One-seventh of all the
deaths each year are due to consumption.
This fearful death rate could be easily
avoided if the proper remedy was re-
sorted to.
A sure preventive and cure of consump-
tion is found in DR.. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery. 1t cures % per cent of all
cases. 1t corrects all disorders of digestion,
invigorates the liver, and makes the blood
pure and plentiful It is the great blood
maker, flesh builder, and nerve invigorator.
1t gets into the blood and acts directly upon
the lungs, building up healthy tissue and
driving out all impurities and disease germs.
Thousands have testified to its wonderful
merits. Druggists sell it.

great benefits derived from the use of your
Golden Medical Discovery writes Miss Laura
Pierse1, of East Bethlehem, Washington Co., Pa.
last summer my friends thought was surely
going into consumption, and having tried doc
ing your medicine 50 highly spoken OF, took
one bottle. My cough left me altogether with
all the distressing symptoms and in fact the
cure seemed almost miraculous to all who saw
me- cannot say enough in praise of the medi-
cine, and have done much to induce others te

good road should have-a side way for
pedestrians higher than and discon-
nected from the road, perfect drainage
and inGeStructible culvertS and bridges.
1t must not be possible to wash 1t
out, and it must be SO built that it
will have the longest possible life and
the least possible stiff grade.
Now that the measure is a law, and
that the Commissioners will be ap-
pointed at once, as the bill requires,
the thing to do is for the people Of the
city and county to move Immediately
in the matter of raising the money nee
essary, as not a single step can be
taken until the money cost is paid IN
and given over to the proper authorities
and the right of way is decided to the
State. The money, Of course, should
be ample 1t would be a sad thing if
after beginning the work it should
cease for want of means by reason OF
insufficiency of estimates. Sacramento
would be deeply humiliated at any such
outcome The road contemplated last
spring. and for which something like
$21 600 was subscribed, was calculated
to cost $35, ,000, but it was to be a mile
and a half shorter than the road now
authorized. The State road is to be a
model: is to be a better road than that
first contemplated, and is to have per-
marent stone bridges.
The people of this city last spring
were ready to pay their full share OF
the cost of the road, and asked the
Trustees to submit the question to
them. That body declined to do so by
special election, but faithfully prom
ised that it should be done at the gen.
eral election in the fall. That promise
was coouy broken. We are just in TINS
position, therefore, that the taxpayers
Of Sacramento City stand ready to pay
their full share, which would be the
larger portion, but cannot do so by
equal taxation because their represen-
tatives ignored their request.
solicit subscriptions, and that work
should be entered upon at once. The
road should be built as soon as is posi-
bic. Work can be done at less cost
between this date and the 1st of Au-
gust than if delayed until the heated
term, when the ground is baked to a
brick hardness and labor is expended at
some disadvantage. There is no rea-
son whatever why the work should not
be commenced by the 1St of May ana
completed before next winters rains set
in. provided the rock-crushing plant Is
able to supply the material rapidly
enough. The supplying of the stone VIII
be speedy: there will be no d1fficutty
in that direction, and the bridge work
can begin just as soCn as the people
meet the States generous offer hall
way, and raise the necessary means.

THE NEWS FROM GREECE AND
CRETE.

The news from Crete, while indicat-
ing continued determination on the
part of the Powers to do the hghtlng
for the Turk necessary TO subdue the
insurgents. is not hopeless for the Gre
tans 1t is evident that Germany, at
first hot for violent measures against
Greece and Crete, has cooled, owing to
the refusal of England to proceed with
measures of violence, and because the
French Government is withheld from
active interference by the public senti-
ment of the country.
Russia appears to have moderated in
her activity also and this is attribut-
able largely to sympathetic feeling be-
cause of religious sympathy. This
leaves Austria and Italy as the only
Powers disposed to proceed at once to
the Italian Commander in Cretan wat
ers has asked of his Government a
large land force to fight and subdue the
insurgents on the island. In the
meanwhile Greece appears to be pre-
pairing to do a wrong thing namely to
provoke a conflict upon the Thessalon
ian border. If there is a shock of
arms there, then all hope of staving off
an Eastern war will be disspated.
There was wisdom and justifiable pre-
caution in the proposition of the Eng
lish Cabinet to have a neutral zone de-
clared upon the border between Greece
and the Turkish provinces into which
neither Greece nor Turkey should move
armed bodies, thus insuring against
conflict in that quarter The prop
osition has been rejected and it is true
a similar one made in a former issue
was proved to be impracticable, but at
this time it would seem to be feasible.
IF, when Constantine reaches his
command and takes charge of the
army, there is not such a demonstra-
ton as viii lead to a conflict we shall
be surprised 1t is what the Turk
wants above all things. With Greece
as the asgressor he will be in a po-
sition to demand of all the Powers that
they stand by the treaty and "con-'
cert that assures him their support
The wise thing for Greece to do viewed
from this standpoint is to remain pas
sive and give the Turk no opportunity
for demanding Of the Powers interfer-
ence upon the north Grecian border
There is unhappily, too much reason
to fear, however, that passivity will
not be the course chosen. Greece has
justice upon her side and can afford to
wait for it and win its case before the
public sentiment of the world.

We concur in the judgment of David
Christie Murray in his criticism of his
contemporaries in fiction, when he says
that as rule the critics, and assuredly
the reading public have gone to ex-
travagant lengths in praising Robert
Louis Stevenson's works They have
been placed upon pinnacle upon which
they cannot be maintained. Time is
the test Of literary merit. That which
lives is fittest to live. Stevenson as
writer of fiction is to be admired. He
fought bravely through life against
physical weakness and constant pain.

Under distressing conditions he wrote
some of the most beautiful chapters in
modern fiction. But the extreme lau-
dation of his work is unwarTanted. and
will certainly result in a reaction that
will bring Stevenson's genius to the
level it is entitled to occupy in literary
history.
