it is felled in the ordinary way, jerks
the stump out by the leverage of its

works seems simple enough to insure
successful operation, but so even do
many of the contrivances planned for
securing perpetual motion. There is
often some hidden condition which
confounds the most plausible theories,
and what seems in embryo a perfect
demonstration, fails when submitted to

Hoyt's "A Stranger in New York.:

The only company presenting Hoyt's
happiest hit, "a Stranger in New

scored a success in London, and is now
playing to the capacity of the theater
in all the principal cities of Australia.
plainly illustrates the popularity of
Hoyt's "a Stranger in New York"
with theater-goers of the world. Not
in this city alone, but everywhere
Hoyt's A Stranger in New York" is
presented, immense audiences are
always the rule. Hoyt knows how to
draw money to the box-office better
than any other playwright. His great
success. in this respect lies in the
happy faculty of knowing just what
the amusement-seeking public wants,
and presenting it to them in the right
way at the right time, and presenting
all his plays in the smaller cities pre-.
cisely the same way in every detail as
he puts them on in his own theater 10
New York. He has been catering to
the taste of the theater.going public
for the past twelve years, and during
all that time he has never disappointed
his patrons by offering them an in
ferior entertainment.

Trees and Landowners In England.

Trees and Landowners In England.
By the general laws of England oak,
ash and elm are timber If not youn-
ger than 20 years, or so old that good
post cannot be cut from them. What
constitutes timber varies slightly ac-
cording to locality, but when a tree is
proved to be timber a person who
has only a life interest in the land 1T
grows upon cannot cut it down unless
it be on an estate cultivated solely for
the production of salable climber" or
unless he has Especial agreement giving
him power to do so. A mere life ten
ant may not even cut down trees which
are not timber" but which would at
the age of 20 years attain that dignity.
BotanistS differ as to the poisonous
nature of yew trees. There are many
instances both Of their poisonous and
their harmless effect when browsed by
horses and cattle, but the partially
dried clippings of yew are certainly
most dangerous. If a yew tree over
hangs a neighbours land and his horses
eat the yew without trespassing, the
owner of the tree is liable to pay for
any injury the horses may sustain On
the other hand, if the horses or cattle
cannot browse on the tree without put
ting their heads over the fence the
owner of the horses must bear the loss,
for his animals have trespassed.-Lon-

The Army In the Field.

The layman cannot easily realize the
vast amount of material as to food and
ammunition demanded by an army in
the field. A few facts and figures as
to this may aid to make it more tangi-
BILE. Each man requires, at a mini
mum, three pounds and half of food
per day. Each animal should have at
least 20 pounds of food in countries
where grazing is not abundant If We
take, for purposes Of estimate, only Is
pounds required to supply each animal.
leaving five pounds to be gathered from
the country by grazing and otherwise,
we assume a quantity that may be con-
sidered a minimum.
An army of 10000 men would re-
quire about $4,000 animals for trans
portation of artillery, camp equipment,
ammunition, food, hospital and med
ical equipment There should not be
less than 10000 cavalry. There should
not be less than 10000 animals avail
able at all times to supply losses. This
makes a total Of 10000 animals to be
fed. With this as basis we see that
the daily demands would be for the
men 525. 900 pounds and for the horses
1,35O,OOO pounds, or an aggregate of
1,S75,OOO pounds. This is equal to
something more than $50 tons per day.

A Rare Investment.

In the San Andreas mountains, seven
ty-five miles north of Ell Paso, is
located the lead and copper mine of
the New Mexican Lead company
They have developed q bountiful
supply of water for their hundred ton
concentrating plant and camp. A fine
building for boarding house, store
and Office has been erected and now
occupied by the company. Work on
the mines commenced May LIST, and the
manager. Mr.. Geo. G. Hopkins, writes
under date of June Is: "That be is
in ore that will 60 60 to 10 per cent
lead and If the mine continues to i'm
prove as it has In the past ten feet ne
will get solid galena; that he has out
about 600 tons and will have one thou
sand tone by July let at which time he
grades" This ia without doubt the
largest producing lead mine in the
south west. The purchase of the treasury
stock of this company is one of the
best, gilt edged dividend paying invest
ments ever before offered to the pub
lie. The treasury shares are being
sold by popular subscription ct twenty
five cents a share. There is only q
limited number now for sale. just as
operation the stock will be out of the
market. The company have in sight
more than three per cent month in
dividends on the par value of the stock.
On the payment of the first dividend
the stock will advance to one dollar a
share and continue to advance with the
payment of each dividend until it
reaches a value equal to the full cap
aoity of the mines and concentrating
plant. twenty-five dollars now buys
one hundred shares and two hundred
and fifty dollars invested now may
produce for the lucky purchaser more
than five thousand In very short
time. The possibilities of the mines
from present development and sur
face ore in sight are beyond cslcula-
t on. A fine display of the ore can be

The Finger Nails.

In days when superstition was more
prevalent than it is now the shape and
appearance Of the finger nails were
considered to have reference to ones
destiny. To learn the message Of the
finger nails it was necessary to rub
them over with compound Of wax
and SCOT and then to hold them SO that
the sunlight fell fully on them. Then
on the horny, transparent substance
certain signs and characters were sup
posed to appear, from which the future
could be interpreted. Persons, too.
having certain kinds of nails were cred
tied with the possession Of certain
characteristics. Thus a man with red
and spotted nails was supposed to
have a hot temper, while pale, lead col
ored nails were considered to denote a
melancholy temperament. Narrow nails
were supposed to betray ambition and
q Quarrelsome nature, while round
shaped nails were the distinguishing
marks Of lovers Of knowledge and peo-
pie Of liberal sentiment. Conceited,
narrow minded and obstinate folk were
supposed to have small nails, indolent
people fleshy nails and those of gen.
tie, retiring nature broad nails.

letters from the mayor and president
of the State university, At Austin, ask
ing that Austin be chosen as the next
place of meeting. They also wished
the association to meet in the winter
instead Of summer.
Invitations were received from Paris
and Bryan, the latter place only In
vitinx the superintendents' and Prin-
cipals' association as they bad not
room to accommodate the teachers.
President Foster, of the A. & M {.
college at Bryan, offered to take the

Professor P w Horn, of Sherman,
then took the floor and invited the as
ISOLATION to hold their next meeting At
that place. he claimed that it was q
great educational center and that its
railway facilities were among the best
in the state. There were many small
towns in the vicinity OF Sherman that
would make things interesting for
the convention. He did not claim
to have as many attractions to
offer as this city but assured the teaeh :
ers Of hearty welcome. AS there
for the entertainment OF the teachers
Sherman was unanimously chosen as
the next place of meeting.
The subject of the election of officers
for the ensuing years was then
brought up but was deferred because
of the absence of SO many of the teach
ers. They will be elected today.
The Intermediate, primary, kinder
gArten, and rural school sections then
