In Santa Rosa, sononma county. Cal,
there is q church built entirely Of one
redwood tree.
The church is the First Baptist church.
and IL is an imposing looking structure
There is not a piece OF wood used in It a.
foot square that came from any but the
one tree. This even includes the seats,
chancel. pulpit. and all other furniture.
The church Is finished inside in wood
instead OF plaster Besides all this. over
5000 shingles have been taken from the
tree.
In Mendocino county Cal. there is a
tree that has kept three men busy two
whole years cutting it Up into shingles.
Other redwoods have been known to
yield 100000 feet Of lumber, which is more
than is obtained from twenty pines.
II is said. however. mat unless some
means OF preserving the redwoods is dis
covered the supply viii be practically ex-

THE CADETS STORY.
To the Editor:
This machete was given 20 me by a
captain in the Spanish army. He said
II had killed quite a number OF snow
balls" or Cubans-more than he wanted
TO own up to-500 at least and from ali
appearances he was right. for II was COW

We consider anything OF that kind
relic. but In Cuba they do not think or
relics now. and you can get any number
OF machetes for the small sum OF a quar-
ter each. Machete IS pronounced like
ma-chet-e. in three sylablcs.
The new macheie costs one dollar

use OF these weapons and are so def that

Stuttgart, celluloid has been found an sx-
cellent substitute for plaster OF paris az
a splint material. On account OF its
weight and its proneness to become foul
by absorbing sweat, etc, plaster OF paris
has not been very much liked. A wide
mouthed bottle is packed for about a
quarter OF its height by celluloid cut INTO
small pieces and then covered with ace
tone. IL Is provided with an alright
stopper TO guard against evaporation.

blade Of the knife, and while running up
to the man can ward off the pistol shots.
As soon as they are I'm striking distance
Of him they slash off his revolver arm.
Very few guns are used In the Cuban
war. The Cubans do not care for them
and prefer the machete, which only needs
to be kept sharp. These swords are made
in England, out OF the best Birmingham
steel and were taken 10 Cuba In time
OF peace by British steamers, and sold
everywhere. None can be landed at pres

and they must be landed by stealth. They

cannot buy machete short OF Venezuela.
The Spanish government now controls
all OF the machetes on this island, and
the Cubans cannot buy them.
People in this country are afraid Of
big sword. but in Cuba you see mothers
handing them 90 their children 10 play
with and you hear army officers telling
little boys 10 sharpen up the knife for

It is a deadly way OF fighting. as you
will agree when you see a real machete.
But you cannot kill as many with Il as
you can with cannon.

Helen Keller In College.

The friends of Helen Keller, says
Boston paper, will be pleased-but not
surprised-to learn that she succeeded
in every preliminary examination she
took for Radcliffe College last month,
and that she has honors in German
and may have them in English, too,
the examiners at last accounts being
engaged in discussing the matter of
honors for her in that subject. The
subjects which Miss Keller passed in
are English, elementary French, ele-
mentary German, History of Greece
and Rome, elementary Latin and Ad-
vanced German. This is certainly a
remarkable showing for girl who has
had only one year of work on strictly
college preparatory lines. 1t is also
worthy of note that Miss Sullivan,
HeIen's teacher, who has on past occa-
sions served as eyes and ears for her,
was not with her during this examina-
ton. nor even in the same building.

FOSSILS FOUND IN WYOMING.
Successful Search OF the American
Museum Party.

NEW YORK, July 22.-The Herald
says an expedition on May last TO Wy
oming by the American Museum of
Natural History 10 search for fossils of
extinct reptiles, has unearthed speci-
mems which will enrich the scientific
treasury of that institution.
DR.. ]. L. Wartman and Burnum
Brown are in charge of the expedition.
The work of excavation has been car
ried on near Laramie City. 1t has been
more successful than was expected.
The principal work of the members of
the expedition has been to unearth
fossil dinosaurs, extinct lizards, which
existed in the Mesozoic age.
Dr. Wartman and Mr. Brown have
found two gigantic dinosaurs, each
about so feet long. One has been ex-
posed and will be ready soon for ship
ment The other is being exposed. 1t
is expected that carload of specimens
will arrive soon in the city.
The American Museum of Natural
History has not had any dinosaurs.
The finds of the expedition are, there
fore, of considerable satisfaction to the
museum authorities. The only other
collections of dinsaurs in the country
which amount to anything are those of
Professor Marsh of Yale University
and the late Prof. E. d. Cope of the
University of Pennsylvania. The mus
cum has also two expeditions working
in Kansas and Nebraska. In the form
er State the scientists are securing fos-
sils of pterosaurs, or pterodactyls. In
Nebraska there is an expedition for
fossils of camels and elephants. Ac
cording to the reports which have
reached this city, these two expeditions
have also been very successful.
