TranspiantIng Large Trees.

Paris has learned the art of trans
planting large trees successfully, so
that at the earliest signs of decay a
street tree may be removed and the
symmetry of the vista not spoiled by
its successor. For these trees alone
the expenses of Paris amount to about
100000 a year. The municipal nurser-
les include a hospital" or cure"
for the tired trees. where they are re-
stored, II possible, to health and
strength in soil that is richer than
the city's. In spring and fall these
trees on their way to and from the
hospital are no uncommon feature in
the street scenes of Paris.

going to do with them?"
THE first thing" said Medworth, sis
to destroy this powder train, and take
precautions that the magazine is not
blown up while we are in here"
They spent half hour at this work,
and when they considered the maya
zine safe, they began an ex animation
of their surroundings.
Not far from the powder magazine
they found a rude stone stairway
running from a central position in the
cellar to an abrupt termination against
a wooden door, what seemed to be
one at the top.
Upon examining the wall at the
top, they found that what had seemed
to be a door had no knob, and no APP
parent way of opening it.
This door, if it is a door," said
Tempest, was never made to open"
There must be a secret spring"
said Medworth. Surely the stairs are
not here for nothing. II force cannot
open the door let us look for a spring"
They began careful examination of
the surface of the door, and the walls
around it, going over every inch with
their finger ends, Tempest holding the
lantern to facilitate the search.
"Ha! Here is something" said Med
worth. "a button"
He pushed. pulled and twisted this,
but to no purpose.
II am convinced that this button
opens the door," he said. Now, while
1 manipulate it, you push the door. 1t
may be out of order"
He tried again, and Tempest putting
his strength to the door, had no diff
Guilty in opening it.
Now be careful" said Medworth.
They passed through the open door,
and found themselves in a narrow pas

There was no other door to this place
than the one they had come through,
but at the other end they found what
seemed to be panel in the wall. From
the side they were on 1t could be east

that the trick was not more skillfully
done.
He placed his hand on this panel,

Bark and stone as Food.

In a very unusual season like that
through which the province of Paipu-
tana, India, recently passed, 1t is not
uncommon for the people to grind the
bark of trees and even stones to mix
with their scanty supply of meal or

thereby stay the pangs of hunger for

have multiplied 80 rapidly that they

room into a wide hall. Peering ou3
into this, they saw, at the further end,
a sentinel standing, leaning on his gun.
Medworth now examined the sliding
panel. He found that, rude as the con-
trivance was on the other side. here 1t
was a most carefully executed thing.
1t was simply one of any number or
panels that ornamented the walls or
the room, and when closed could not
be detected as different in its construc-
ton from any of the others.
Medworth counted them, and found
that the sliding panel was the fifth
from either end, being exactly half
way.
They would have turned their atten-
ton to other things, but hearing foot
steps they sprang into the hiding-place
and closed the panel.
They distinctly heard two men enter
the room.
Bending down, Medworth applied his
ear to the panel to listen to what was
said.
1T Is a strange most inexplicable
thing, Garza," he heard some one say.
II confess / do not understand it,"
your majesty" was the reply, and
Medworths heart throbbed as he rec
ognized the voice of the father of the
girl he loved, "as for understanding it.,

point. My heart is bursting with
grief. 1t was a dastardly crime. A

commanded MattaZudo to find and re-
turn my daughter, and it must be said,
in all truth, that he seemed at least
TO be sincere in his effort. We went to
the Carib's hut. We found the old In
dian there. Mattazudo at once COM
manded him to deliver up the girl that
he, Mattazudo had brought there under
a misunderstanding. The Carib smoked
calmly on and asked how many more
were coming for a girl he had never
seen. Mattazudo threatened to shoot
him, but nothing could move the old
Indian. I pleaded with him. l be-
sought him with all the energy of a
broken-hearted father to restore my
daughter to me, but he still claimed
he had not seen her. MattaZudo told
me that Ramana was friend of Co
mez, and no doubt had agreed to keep
silent. The only way, of course, was
to get the truth out of Gomez. When
we returned to the castle | taxed Go
mez with the crime; but without wait
ing to deny it, he sprang upon Mat
tazudo with drawn sword, and would
have killed him, had not some of the
Zambos been standing near to inter-
fere. Then, to me, Gomez denied all
knowledge of my daughter, and says
the story of Mattazudo is lie. Now,
what am l to believe? Only one thing
is certain-that my poor girl is stolen
from me, and would give my life to
know she was SAFE
The old Spaniard had not left the
room before two silent figures crawled
stealthily away from the sliding panel
and down under the foundations again
to lay their plan of action.

ABOUT THE WILD ASS.
High Spirited and UntamabIe, Tiny Fly
from Mans Preseucs.

HiEh Spirited and Untamnble, Tiny Fly
from Mans Preseucr.
The wild ass may almost be said 10
be the antithesis Of the domestic spe-
cies. The one is high-spirited and un-
tamable, the other the meekest and
most submissive Of bankruptcies; the
one is as remarkable for its speed as
the other for its slowness; and while
the wild specimen ranks among the
most graceful animals of creation, Its
every movement typical OF the untram-
me!ed freedom of the desert over
which IL loves to roam, and of the I'M
fettered breath of heaven, which seems
to lend it wings, its subjugated con-
gener is awkward and ungainly. In
color the roulan, or wild ass, is
creamy white, shading to fawn on the
back, with handsome darker stripe
running from wither to tail, and a
corresponding marking on each fore
arm; the head and muzzle are finely
nodded, the ears less long and pointed
than those in the tame donkey and
eyes large and prominent and as
bright as those Of the gazelle, and the
legs resemble in length and lightness
those of the deer. Wild asses congre-
gate in herds of from sixty to seventy;
and 1t Isl said by the natives that there
is generally but one male in every
herd. 1t is even rare to find a male
among the young ones captured. No
pettier sight can be seen than one OF
these herds careering over the plain
sending up the solt spray like a show
er of crystal in their flight. Theirs is
the very poetry of motion, but tho
sight is too transient, their fleetness of
foot carrying them out of the range of
vision long before the enjoyment that
their beauty gives is satiated..

Game of Bowls Revived.

There are signs and symptoms of q
revived interest in the game of bowls,
one of the oldest outdoor pastimes in
England. In it's heyday bowls ran
archery very closes-so close, indeed,
that in the interests of national de-
Tense it was deemed essential to dis
courage the game. Thus it was, prob
ably, that the pastime came to be
looked upon as having something of
an Illicit character, and for time was
more or less associated with houses Of
entertainment which were not always
of the best repute. But in spite of the
ban of bygone centuri,<, the bowling
green has survived, more especially in
the north Of England and in Scotland
Nor can there be any more delightful
game than bowls for a summer even
ing, more especially for those who
have attained to an age when such
lively physical exertions as are in
volved by cricket and tennis become a
little unwelcome.
