THE GINGO TREE.
The Chinese Product Planted Beside
General Grants Tomb.

Last spring the Chinese consul at
New York city, acting in the name of
Ii Hung Chang, planted near the
grave of Genearl Grant at Riverside
a young tree which the viceroy has
sent from China for that purpose.
The tree, which appears to be -four
ishing in it's new ground, is what is
known as the Japan gihkgo. This
name conveys to many persons who
see it in print jocose impression;
and some even incline to regard the
whole story of the tree and its plant
ing as a humorous myth. This i'm
preston, no doubt, arises from the
fact that in some well-known mon
sense verses" of the late Edward
Lear, the ginkgo tree is associated
with the woggly bird in ridiculous
farrago Of words that sticks in the
memory like Mark Twain's jingle of
the blue trip slip for a Scent fare"
But, whatever the woggly bird may
be, the ginkgo tree is a robust reality.
It's full name is ginkgo biloba, or
Salisburia adantifolia. 1t is also
called the maidenhair tree. 1T be-
longs to the yew family, and has fan

General Grant better than did General
Horace Porter, who thus writes OF
him: ''He was without exception the

incident will illustrate this trait. One
day, while busy writing in his bed

overheard the command, and, turning
suddenly in his chair called out to the
servant: Tell him no such thing |

one to lie for me-

few men who never displayed the
