GROWING UPSIDE DOWN.
Planted Dy Man Who Had Read an
Old German Legend.

John Meiners' distillery in Milwau-
kee has not been In operation for nine
years. It is an old landmark and is
surrounded with the interest that every
old building In Milwaukee awakens in
the historian. The grounds about 1t
are covered with grand old trees and
rustic benches and form little by-way
nook whose existence one would not
suspect from the road outside the
fence at the south. says Meehan's
Monthly. But the object of greatest in
terest in this uniqus place is an old
apple tree that was planted twenty
eight years ago, with It's limbs in the
ground and Its roots in the air, and
which still lives to bear fruit and
sprout branches where roots should be,
and roots where twigs and leaves
should be, curiosity to beholders. Mr..
Meiners was induced to make the trial
through an old German legend. in
which such an inverted tree played
prominent part. When Mr.. Meiners
planted his twenty-five apple trees they
showed no signs Of life for a long time.
Finally the one still remaining showed

deal OF care II was nursed to sturdy
life. II grew very slowly and has not
grown more than two feet in height
since It was planted. 1t Is now about
four feet high, with trunk fifteen
inches in diameter. The roots had
tendency TO droop. and 1t was found
necessary to prop them up with a trel-
lis. Instead OF growing vertically, they
have extended horizontally in long.
slender arms There are about twenty
OF these, radiating in all directions.
Each year. as they grew longer, addi-
tional props were put underneath, and
they have extended along the trellis
fat, straight as ceiling, with little
slender shoots running at right angles
and INTERVENING with one another so
closely that they afford some protec-
ton from the rain to one who may
stand underneath. The top is circular
in form and about fifty feet in diam
eter. The tree has borne fruit for
about twenty years and is now COW
cred with little green apples. The fruit
is OF good quality. but the variety is
not known by Mrs. Adolph Meyer.

Gov. McCord is giving a few newspapers great deal of worry. Some say he is to head a column of Arizona infantry and resign the office of governor to make way for the Murphy gang. while the others say his offer to raise a regiment is all bluff. Unmindful of the snarls of these penny-a-liners the governor goes right on filling the guberna- torial chair to the satisfaction of the people of Arizona.

A Tribune correspondent who was imprisoned in Cabanas says that there are 75,000 troops in Ha vana and that the city is impreg- nable from the sea. A land force could only take the city by the loss of at least one third of its number. The correspondent does not know the mettle of the Americans.

The Prescott Courier sees in the assessment of the Santa Fe Pacific railroad company at 5,000$ per mile by the territorial board of equalization another evidence of its bondage to the corporations. It refers to the fact that the same road is assessed at 10,000s per mile in California, but fails to state that the levy in San Bernardino county is usually fixed at about one-half the rate in the Arizona counties through which it runs. The Cour- fer has not the courage to be just nor sense enough to be fair.

SHE WENT HOME.

An old lady was seated on a porch
near the seaside, and was being sung
to sleep by the murmur OF the waves.
| Her face had an cxpectant look upon
it and her eyes had seemed to wander
over the ocean in search OF an object,
the day had been weary and long and
full OF eager watching, but now her
blank but pleasant cOuntenance was
beginning to show her in her dreams
the realization of her vigilance during
the day.
Re easy and don't disturb her while
we relate to you her history. She was
the only daughter and only child of an
adoring father. Her mother had died
when she was quite young, and her
father had been her sole protector and
instructor. lie had reared her with
loving care and at the age OF twenty
she had married rich southerncr near
the coast.
All was happiness and nothing ruff
fed the peacetulness Of husband and
wife until the winter OF 70 the old
man left home by ocean route to visit
his daughter. A storm came up, the
old man was drowned, and the insane
daughter has been looking for him
ever since, intending to 60 back with
him.
Mrs. WalthOrp has been buster than
ever looking Tor the expected ship. and
her deep sleep is an evidence Of her
wearincss. Several times during the
day she had raised up In her chair and
seemed to see distant ship but soon
it would fade from view and she would
fall back exhausted in her chair.
Hist. She awakes. Her face assumes
numerous expressions and then she
gazes intently upon the oceans bosom,
looking for the expected parent. Then
she goes out to supper leaning on her
husbands arm. Her husband serves
her and she, calling for strong, nour-
isling food, says:
Eyes, I'm going to travel tonight
and l believe had better have plenty
OF supper. Yes, father will be here
tonight, he told me he was coming"
Supper over all the family retire to
the sitting room, and the old lady's
mind seems to wander worse than ever.
She sees someone at the windows and
to hear footsteps on the porch. She
faints suddenly, falls from her chair,
all the symptoms of heart failure are
present. The sweet old lady is carried
to a bed; a physician Is summoned and
all medical care used to save the spark
of lile but to no avail. The patient
sinks deeper and deeper, her mind goes
farther and farther away.
"Is that you, father? Is that you:
we'll, I'm ready; I've been waiting
patiently and looking eagerly for you
I'm ready, let's 20 home" With these
words uttered, the anxiety Of pasl
years and eager watching was over
Mrs. Walthrop went home with he
father.
