Dosun in XenezueIa.

The Colombian republic is certain

to the governors of the different de-
partments that they must not look to
the national capital for financial aid;
that they must make forced requisi-
tions to obtain the military supplies
required for the troops under their
command; and must ''levy forced and
voluntary loans. according to circum-
stances, and impose war contribu-
tions" The difference between forced
and n voluntary loan in South and
Central America is not worth speak
ing of. When merchant is notified
by the authorities that voluntary
loan of $1,000 will be most gratefully
received, he knows that II he does not
lend the money file of soldiers will
be sent after it. Then it will be a
forced loan. This Spanish-American
method of raising money is respon-
sible for many of the diplomatic con-
troversies between Central and South
American republics and foreign coun-
tries. Wealthy foreigners are often
called on to contribute. and are some
times thrown into prison to make
them do so. There is danger now that

Historv OF CIeopatra's Needle.

The two obelisks known as Cleopat-
ra's Needles, were set up at the en-
trance Of the Temple Of the Sun, in
Heliopolis, Egypt by ThOthmes ILL.,,
about 1881 B. c.. We have no means
of knowing when they were built, or
by whom, except from the inscriptions
on them, which indicate the above
time. The material of which they were
cut is granite, brought from Syene,
near the first cataract of the Nile. Two
centuries after their erection Rameses
II. had the stones nearly covered with
carvings setting out his own greatness
and achievements. Twenty-three years
B. c., Augustus Caesar moved the obel-
isks from Heliopolis to Alexandria, and
set them up in the Caesarium, a palace
which now stands, a mere mass Of
ruins, near the station Of the railroad
to Cairo. In 1919 one of these obelisks
was presented by the Egyptian Gov
ernment to England, but as no one
knew how to move them it was not
taken to London until 1878. Subse-
Quently the other obel!sk was present
ed to the United States.

rHE rREE THAr OWNS ITsELF.
Deed Concerning an Oak Recorded by
Colonel jackson, at Athens, Ga.

Deed Concerning an Oak Recorded by
Colonel jackson, at Athens, Ga.
athens, Ga, has one remarkable
tree" said Congressman Tate of that
state. This is a tree which is a
property holder. The records at the
County Court House shows deeds con-
veying the tree and all the land
within eight feet of it to the tree.
1T is a magnificent oak and seems
to stand straighter and hold its head
more proudly than any of the trees
around it, Certainly it is ranked
above the common trees of the world.
for it cannot be touched against its
will, that is, if the conditions Of the
deed are carried out.
"The facts are these: Many years
ago Colonel w. H. Jackson owned the
land upon which the tree stands. He
had watched the tree grow from its
childhood, and grew to love it al
most as he would a human being. It's
luxuriant foliage and sturdy branches
had often protected him from the sun

he had taken from the nests the eggs
of the feathered songsters.
Colonel Jackson watched its growth
and when he saw it standing in its
magnificent proportions, he was panied
to think that after his death it might
fall into the hands of people who
would destroy it. Believing that the
only way to save the tree from the
axe of the woodsman was to deed the
tree to itself, he did so, having a deed
recorded in the Clerks Office, witness
ing that, for and in consideration of
the great love l bear said tree giving
it's location) and a great desire that
said tree be protected for all the time,

of the wolves, the deer have made

A Teachers Pynsons.

In ancient days, says the Westmins-
ter Gazette, a master was man who
taught, and no one could obtain the
degree Of Master of Arts until he had
lectured at least two years in the Ok
ford schools, during which period he
was known as a Regent Master. That
he might be known to all men he
was bound during this period to wear
heelless shoes, called 'pynsons' or
late years the custom has been in
allegiance, and n Master Of Arts has
received a dispensation from lecturng.
At the same time he did not become
a full master till the end Of the term
Of his inception. BY the recent statute
the last trace Of the regent or lecturing
master has disappeared. With it will
disappear the "pynson," as has dis.
appeared long since the custom Of pre-
sentlng articles Of clothing to ones
friends on the occasion Of inception.

Bread Made OF Moss.

In some parts of the world bread H.
made OF bark or moss. This occurs
in more than one place In the far
north, and bread is made OF vastly
different materials in different coun-
tries. In Lapland, oats with the in
ner bark of the pine are used. The
two together. we'll ground and mixed
are made into large hat cakes and
cooked in pan over the fire. In
Kamchatka. in Asiatic Russia, pine OF
birch bark by itself. well macerated
pounded and baked, frequently consti-
tutes the whole of the native bread
food. The Icelander scrapes the Ice
land moss off the rocks and grinds II
into fine -four, which serves both for
bread and puddings. In parts OF Italy
chestnuts are cooked. ground into
meal, and used for making bread. Dur.
ra, a variety of millet, is much used
in India, Egypt, Arabia and Asia Minor
for making bread.-Chlcago Journal.

Since the Sampson-Schley controver.
sy has grown acute again there has

with the credit for the victory at San

Proctor Knott and John Yerkes were
discussing the claims OF Sampson and
Schley to the credit OF smashing Ger
vera at Santiago. Mr.. Yerkes took
the ground that all the honor OF that
memorable conflict belonged to Ad-
miral Sampson. and was inclined to
entirely ignore Commodore Schley's
part in the affair. The governor lis
tened until his companion had fin-
ished, and then with that Characters
tic twinkle in his eye said: MY dear
sir. II is exceedingly gratifying to me
to hear you take the position you have
in the matter. II is like a balm to

Ferris Wheel Park, Chicago, Nov.
4th.-Capt A. II. Bogardus. the cham
pion wing shot of the world, has spent
the summer here. His shooting school
has been one OF the features of the
Park during the season. He has Civ
en- many exhibitions and his skill with
the rifle Is superb.
The Captain tells of a very close
call he once had when liv ng at Elk
hart, Ill. He had been a sufferer from
Kidney disease for several years and
1t rapidly developed into Bright's Dis
ease. All his friends told him that
this was incurable and that he would
never get better.
To say that he was alarmed Is to
put 1t very mildly. This plucky man
had faced many dangers and 1t made
him sick at heart to think that at
last he was to be conquered by such
cruel foe.
At last he heard of a medicine that
had cured many such cases-Dodd's 8
Kidney Pills. He used them and was
completely restored to good health.
He says: 81 attribute my present
good health TO Dodds Kidney Pills
