as they broke into foam against our

In deep water we could relax our

were soon burning. Over the sound CT

the sound of three guns that told our
friends above the island AFT our safety,

levee everybody in town was there and
a score ran waist-deep into the river
to catch the line that we cast out. We
were made fast to the shore and a

waiting to see Capt. Wake. In a few
days Island No. 10 had fallen and we

TRANsPLANTED TREES.
They Require More Care and watch
ing Than Most Farmers Are In
cIIned to Give Them.

Enough cannot be said in favor of
mulching trees as soon as they are
planted. It is all important to protect
the roots from the effect of evapora-
ton for at least six months after plant
ing. The small fbers must be allowed
to form and get good hold of the soil.
and large feeding roots must be able
to reach out. so as to make sure of a
supply of food and drink for the growth
that takes place in limbo. 1t is not
enough to pour on water from above.
This. of course, must be done in very
dry weather, but an irregular supply
of this sort does not meet the demands
of the roots. Cover the soil so far as
it has been disturbed by the spade with
layer of three or four inches of coal
ashes, or sawdust, or loose strawy
manure. Avoid using rich and raw
manure. Tanbark is in some cases
available, and where nothing else can
be obtained use weeds or fresh cut hay.
This application will retain the mois-
ture in the soil, and, what is equally
important, will keep the roots at an
equalized temperature. Without a
mulch, the more you pour on water
the more liable the ground is to bak-
ing and becoming impervious to a
natural circulation of moisture. Above
all, avoid sprinkling the soil with a
slight supply of water.
The care of trees, for the first year
after setting, consists in pinching out
every bud that starts out of place Be
sides keeping out the superfuous
shoots, in October cut back the years
growth one-third to one-half. Some
people advocate pinching in the growth,
during summer, in order to retard the
flow of sap and hasten the formation of
fruit buds. This can be done, but in the
production of healthy, long lived trees
it is unwise. By following these simple
rules anyone can make success of tree
planting. 1t is very seldom that trees
come from any nursery in such con-
dition that they will not thrive under
this management.-N. Y. Tribune

RUNNING ISLAND NO. 10.
Stirring Incident of the Civil war
by One Who Had a Part
in 1t.

Out at the Memorial home on Grand
avenue and Sidney street lives Capt.
John Deming, one of the few sur7fv-
ing men who piloted up and down the
Mississippi when it was the main artery
of traffic in the great west and throbbed
with the wealth of the young nation,
says the st. Louis Globe-Denocrat.
Capt. Deming has had life of more
than ordinary excitement, and even
now, safe in snug harbor though he is,
his eyes light up as he tells of the days
when he stood at the wheel and conned
his boat past rebel batteries that flung
shot and shell at him. He was pilot
on the Carondelet when she made her
famous run past Island No. 10, and no
words can tell better the daring of the
trip than the simple ones OF the white
haired old gentleman:
early in 1862 he says, ''I was pilot
on the gunboat Carondelet, under Com
modore Foote, who had charge of the
Mississippi fotilla. The confederates
had fortified: Island No. 10, and we lay
in the river a few miles above it, held
inrcheck by the terrible reputation that

its -four. There are no limits to the
capacity of the average Monaghan
stomach, except its possessor's ablI-
ity to buy The fact that compare
lively little meat is eaten explains
this in part. Brought up upon diet
of rice and vegetables, he must needs
eat large quantity in oruer to get
sufficient nourishment. His digestive
apparatus becomes adjusted to quanti-
ties of food.
Upon canalboat the other day 1
saw the assistant boatman, a young
fellow of 20 odd years of age, eat
dinner of rice and vegetables. He
flied his bowl eight times, heaping
full, running over-not less than
pint in each. It was not necessary to
ask the old boatman how that young
man was paid. It goes without say
ing, she was eating his employer to
use very expressive Chinese id1om.
All Chinese inns are upon the Gu
ropean PLAN The Chinese host that
is foolish enough to sell food by the
meal would soon have to quit. Every
guest would eat meal, in the
strength of which he could go for "A
hours WITHOUT OISCOIn1OIt.
The foreign visitor who is the hon
ored guest at a Chinese feast is liable
to get very erroneous impression of
the Chinese diet. Not less than u
courses, nearly all various kinds of
meats, can be served by Chinese host
without insulting his guests. More
frequently IS are served. Each new
course is devoured with avidity.
have often watched this display of ca
pacity and marveled at it. The or
binary vegetable diet is the eXplana-
ton. When opportunity offers to eat
a dozen different kinds of meat at a
friends expense he can do it. The
cubic space required has been pre-
pared.
Herein lies the folly of the adult
foreigner trying to live on a native
diet He can satisfy the cravings of
hunger, but he cannot eat enough to
furnish proper nourishment. In
nearly every case an early break
down is the result, and the self-tor-
tured martyr goes back to the home
land ''brol,en down from overwork,"
so it is reported.
1t would be more accurate to re-
port broken down from under-feed-
ing" Nevertheless the Chinese are
the best fed of the Asiatic peoples.
The common people of India are thin
shanlled, bony and weak, compared
with the Chinese. Undoubtedly one
important reason for this physical SUI

be of three inch oak and fastened with
large spikes.
