BY the general laws Of England oak,

post cannot be cut from them. What
constitutes timber varies slightly ac-
cording to locality, but when tree is
proved to be timber" a person who
has only life interest in the land it
grows upon cannot cut it down unless
it be on an estate cultivated solely for
the production of salable timber" or
unless he has a special agreement giving
him power to do so. A mere life ten

You want to go to China to see AMI
nal fighting reduced to a science.
There are hundreds of young men In
the larger cities there who make Nv
ing by training animals to fight and In
exhibiting their savage qualities to in
terested audiences. They catch both
mud and swapping turtles, feed them
on raw meat and some sort of drug
that warns them up, and at the end OF
six months they become savage enough
to fight a tiger. The jaws and teeth
are fled and sandpapered until the
mouth becomes a dangerous thing to
go near. The turtle is tantalized each
day with a piece of wood or a bunch Of
cotton until It's temper reaches a white
heat. When confronted with another
turtle that has been trained and badg
cred in the same way, they go for eacf
other with distended jaws, and there is
sure to be fight to a finish.
They have each been starved for
week. Each is handled by his owner
who has leased it to the killing point
The two turtles are then placed in
small ring, and only one comes out
alive. The fight lasts from one to ter
hours, and death generally comes only
when one of them has secured throat
hold on his doomed antagonist.-Cleve
land Plain Dealer.

which are daily required for fiavoring
stews and making omelets in the lead

in New York to a Washington Star
writer. "Our northern oysters do not
contain the little dainties, so l am

The Roar of Battle.

The roar Of the navy's four point
seven's, their crash, their rush as they
passed, the shrill whine Of the shrap-
mel, the barking of the howitzers and
the mechanical, regular rattle Of the
quick firing Maxims, which sounded
like the clicking of many moving ma
chimes on hot summers day, tore the
air with such hideous noises that ones
skull ached from the conclusion, and
one could only be heard by shouting.
But more impressive by far than this
hot chorus Of mighty thunder and pet
ty hammering was the roar of the
wind which was driven down into the
valley beneath and which swept up
again in enormous waves Of sound. 1t
roared like a great hurricane at sea.
The Illusion was SO complete that you
expected, by looking down, to see the
Tugela lashing at her banks, tossing
the spray hundreds of feet in air and
battling with her sides of rock. 1t was
like the roar Of Niagara in a gale, and
yet when you did look below not leaf
was stirring, and the Tugela was slip
ping forward, fat and sluggish and in
peace.-From "With Buffers Column"
by Richard Harding Davis, in Scrib-
ner'S.
