All the principal correspondents at

Mr.. Villiers, the war artist; The Daily

spondents as well as Sir Howard Vim

experience was a particularly striking
one. While asleep in his Cape cart on
the veldt he was Intellectually potted
at 100 yards off by three gentlemen in

farmer. AS he tersely puts it, II never
felt anywhere so safe as when under
my countrymen's fire." An analysis OF
the "witherlng rifle fire Of the British
advance" shows that In very few In
stances was a Boer hit more than once,
while many of our men had several
Mauser bullets through them, In some
instances as many as IL and 10. Eng

hospitals report that almost all the

FAMILY LIVES IN A TREE.
New jersey Man Who Has Built Him.
self q Home Well Above
Ground.

John Rausch, of Haledon, n. j., and
his family live up a tree. A more
unique habitation cannot be imagined.
In the branches of big oak he has
built his home. 1t is perched among
the leaves and over the top of the
queer abode towers the top of the
tree, forming its chief roof.
Rausch, say. a letter to the st. Louis
Republic, is German laborer who has
worked around Haledon for five years
He has seldom earned more than q
dollar a day. He grew tired OF paying
rent and, with the Germans love OF
owning home of his own, he tried
TO buy some property from the real
estate dealer of the place, William
Buschman. The latter owns nearly al
the land in that vicinity, and is anxious
to have the property improved He
told Rausch he would give him a nice
lot for little money if he would build
a house. True the lot was far away
from the road, but it was dry and well
situated. 1t was covered with fine
trees, and an especially majestic oak
grew in the center.
After paying for the lot Rausch
found he hadn't money enough to start
the house he had promised TO build.
His wife and three small children ate
up his meager earnings. Buschman
told him he would have to give up the
lot if he didn't begin the house.
Rausch thereupon secured number
of big boxes. He had conceived the
idea of making the branches Of the
tree serve for uprights and timbers.
The nails in the boxes were sufficient.
On the strong lower branches he
crossed and recrossed the boards. 1t
made a very uneven floor, but the
branches were strong and the boards
would not Sip The house is circular,
but very irregular.
