GIANT TREES OF CALIFORNIA.
Some Figures That Give a Good Idea
of Their Immense Size.

The recent attempt of a lumber man
ufacturing firm to obtain possession of
the great tree groves of California for
the purpose of converting them into
merchantable lumber has directed at
tention anew to those wonderful pro-
ducts Of nature. Few, however, have
a very clear idea of the magnitude Of
those trees, many of which have e
diameter of fifteen feet, while a mum.
Der have been found measuring up
ward of thirty.
The famous group known as the
Mammoth Grove of Calaveras, contain
ing above ninety large trees, stands in
30 degrees north latitude, about 1870
feet above the sea, between the San
Antonio and Stanislaus rivers. Ac-
eording to Vischer it was discovered
by hunter in 1852, but it had ap-
parently been visited before. as the
date 1850 is cut on one of the trees
The bark of one of the finest trunks
was foolishly stripped Off to the
height of lie feet and exhibited in
New York and London. It is now in
the Crystal palace. The tree, known
as the mother of the forest" soon
died. At the base it measured ninety
feet in girth and the dead tree was
32l feet high. A PROSTATE trunk in
the neighborhood is eighteen feet in
diameter 300 feet from the base.
Some trees in the Mariposa grove
rival these In size. One measures 101
feet round the root and cut stump is
thirty-one feet in diameter.

A Poem With a Point.

Only pin, but it calmly lay
On the tufted floor in the light of
day;
And shone serenely fair and bright,
Rejecting back the MONDAY light.
Only boy; yet he saw that pin,
And his face assumed fiendish grin;
He stopped for awhile with a look in
tent,
Till ne and the pin alike were bent.
Only chair; but upon its seat
A well-bent pin found safe retreat;
Nor had the keenest eye 6iscerned
That heavenward its point was
turned.
Only man; but he CHANGED to drop
Upon the chair, when fiz-bang pop!
He leaped like cork from out a bot
tie,
And opened wide his valve de throttle.
Only yell, though an honest one;
1t lacked the element of fun;
And boy and man, and pin and chair,
In wild confusion mingled there.

FREAKS IN ADVERTISING.
Ingenious Arrangements for Printing
on Stockings and Spools.


The art of printing has found. with
in recent years, good many develop
ments of which the average well-in-
formed person knows nothing. Ma
chimes, for example, have been patent
ed for printing on matches. The
matches are thrown into hopper,
whereupon revolving wheel receives
them one by one in its teeth and car
ries them beneath the instrument that
stamps the legend upon them. An
other continuance prints upon gum
wads data which inform the sports
man, when he looks into the end of
each cartridge, how much powder it
contains and what is the size of the
shot.
The printing on stockings, which
includes the trademark and often
some such words as Fast Black" is
done by a machine made for that sole
purpose. Another machine prints let
tering on cigars, and yet another
adorns barrels with the firm names
of the concerns whose products fill
them. There is a special device for
printing on the ends of spools of
thread, and another for putting letters
on buckets. One of the most curious
contrivances is a machine for print
ing On gelatin capsules. Another de-
vice Is FOR printing on broom-handles
the name and address of the manu-
facturer. The lettering on collars and
cuffs, which states the trademark and
number, is done by machine built
for that particular purpose.
But the very newest continuance in
this class of inventions is a machine
for printing advertisements on the
asphalt pavements of streets. It is a
species of bicycle, the tire of the front
wheel having a series of raised let
tiers on its periphery. These letters,
as the wheel revolves, print the name
of soap, or what not, while an auto
matte blower at the bottom of the fork,
blows the dust away from the pave
ment in front,-Saturday Evening

TILE BEGINNING
|lerub ran away,

Once cherub ran away,
Wandered from the flock astray
While they romped in meadow skies
Like lot Of butterflies;
Long they sought him everywhere,
Under clouds and in the air,
Where the laughing cherubs peek
When they play at hide-and-seek;
All in vain, for not a trace
Found they Of his chubby face,
Till a letter came one day
From inc earth so far away,
Written with starlet dipped in dew,
Penned upon eloudlet blue,
And the truant cherub wrote
In most ungracious note
That he'd found the world so fair,
He'd become baby there!
Now, when cherubs disappear,
All the others fluttering near
Whisper of the fatal day
When the first one ran away.

SELECTING THE SPEAKERS.
Real Work that Requires Prompt
Judgment and Good DIPLOMACY.


Both the chiefs of the two great
armies of campaign spellbinders are
Ohioans," writes Forrest Crissey, in
The Saturday Evening Post. 'Mr
Henry G. Hedges, who enlists and
directs the oratorical forces of the
republicans, is prominent lawyer of
Mansfield, while Daniel McConville
comes from Steubenville. Mr.. Hedges
has been connected with the bureau
of which he is now the head for three
national campaigns, and Mr.. McCon-
vile began service in his present ca.
pacity in 1896. They are, however,
veterans in every phase of campaign
experience.
1T is slow day which does not
bring hundred candidates for ora
torical honors to either of the Ma
tional Headquarters, and the average
is close to two hundred a day. The
written applications brought in by
the mails are about equal to the mum
Der of those made personally.
First impressions carry great
weight with the men who select the
orators, and they depend more upon
their ability to read human nature
than upon the results of any categori.
cal examination.
"A principle enforced by the daily
experience OF these judges of spell.
binders is expressed in the homely
adage that You cant tell by the looks
of toad how far he will jump
Rough diamonds of oratorical talent
are at premium at national head
quarters, and it is recognized at the
speakers bureaus that the best SPELL
binder timber is often clothed with a
shaggy bark. Silk hats, spotles1
linen, white ties and faultless Princ6
Albert suits do little to assure the
candidates OF acceptance.
"A distinctive feature at National
Headquarters is the army of bright
young college men who are impatient
to try their mettle on the stump. No
young college man need hesitate to
make application to Mr.. Hedges or to
MIR. McConville, for both are EN-.
/ phatic in the declaration that the col.
leges and universities of the present
day are turning out better campaign
timber than ever before, and that
the humblest undergraduate is as
sured OF a courteous welcome IL he
chooses to seek a place in the ranks
of the spellbinders."

HIGH SCHOOL FUNCTION.
Delightful Time at 6. a. r. Hall
Last Friday Evening.

The students Of the Redwood
Falls high school INDUCED in very
delightful social gathering at the g.
A. r. hall last Friday evening, about
40 of the young people being present,
together with Prof. and Mrs. Arthur
J. Jones and J. A. Schmahl of The
GAZETTE, as special guests.
It has been the custom for the
junior class, on each recurring year,
to entertain the members of the
senior class, and such others as the
class desired to invite, but inasmuch
as the junior class consists of only
three member, Messrs. Owen Tread
well, Monroe Baldwin and Harry
Baker. it was deemed best to make
this affair a general high school
social, as well as a junior class re-
ception to the seniors. The latter.
all young ladies, were present, and
wore the class colors of lavender
and light green during the evening.
The early portion of the evening
was spent in games, the first being
the rolling of the plates, the second
being Ruth and Jacob, and then
came the spoon races, which were

They were participated in by rep
resentatives of different classes,
and as the finish came in each con-
test the hurrahing was enough to
raise the roof from the building.
AS the last contest which was be-
tween Mr.. Jones and Mr.. Schmahl,
andwas won by the former, came to a
close those present were invited in
to the dining room where the senior
class, assisted by the juniors and
several others, served ice cream
and cake. After these refreshments
the party again returned to the
main hall and listened to readings,
short saying, songs ETC., the COM
mittee having charge of the affair
calling on the pupils indiscriminate-
ly and with out knowledge of the lat
ter. Allof the responses were highly
creditable, and demonstrated that
the young people were receiving
excellent instruction from the high
school teachers.
