SOME MEN GROW ON TREES.

This Is the Belief of an Indian anI
Some Other Tribes.
The Sioux Indians still share with
the old Aryan and Semitic tribes in the
belief that there are trees that bring
forth human beings and others that
bear various portions of the human
body, and in the fourteenth century
an Italian traveller, on arriving Mt NAL
abar, was told by the natives that the
country abounded with n tree that
bore men and women. The latter were
attached to the limbs by the neither ex-
tremities and were full formed when
the wind blew, but when the wind died
out tracy soon withered. These speci-
mems Of humanity reached the length
or height Of three feet.
In the first book Of the Mahadharata
mention is made Of forms of dwarfs
that were to be found on a large fig
tree. The Arabs are still strong in the
belief that somewhere in the southern
ocean there is n tree that bears q nut
that resembles the face Of a man and
when in it's fullness the mouth opens
and gives voice to the cry: "Wak!
Walk" The Chinese reverse the order
Of things and, instead of believing that
the trees give birth to men, claim that
in the beginning the herbs and grass
sprang from the hair of the human
family. They have preserved the ira
dition, too, that somewhere within the
borders of the beautiful Flowery
Kingdom there is a wonderful lake by
whose margin grew trees whose leaves
developed into birds and also that, II
a jar be broken on the waters, birds OF
the most brilliant plumage will at once
arise from the pieces and fly off.
In central India there Is q tribe call
ed Khatties that claim to have their
origin from q stick Of wood. When
the five sons of Pandu, the heroes
whose exploits are told in the Mahad'
harata, had become simple tenders Of
sheep, Karna, their illegitimate broth
er, wishing to deprive them of theil
last resource, prayed to be gods to as
sist him. He struck the earth with his
: staff, which opened, and from it sprana
a man who was called Khat, meaning
begotten Of wood, and by this name
have his descendants ever since been
known.-St. Louis Republic.

Joe Died Suddenly.

Joseph Kostelecky died at st. Joseph's
hospital in ST Paul, Saturday, January
9Th, aged is years, II months and l6days.
Joe was taken to the hospital about
two weeks previous for treatment for
his eyes he having become totally blind.
At the time of his unfortunate turn, he
had recovered the sight of one eye and
could see a little out of the other and
expected to return home in two months.
Joe was very active and could not CON
tent himself by keeping quiet and re-
naming inside. Saturday forenoon he
got permission to 60 out of doors and af-
ter getting out he persuaded n of the
attendants to 60 down into the city with
him. Joe was weak and in turning a
corner he was taken with a dizzy spell
and fell to the pavement with much
force, striking on the back of his head.
He was carried back to the hospital and
in less than three hours was dead. The
immediate cause of death was the break
ing of a blood vessel.
Frank, brother of deceased, went to
st. Paul Saturday night, returning with
the remains Tuesday morning.
Services were held from the Congre-
g%ational church Wednesday forenoon at
10 o'clock, Rev. U. G. Rich officiating.
The pail bearers we're: Edwin Fox, Reu-
ben Lyon, Angus Neil, Ralph Deffebach,
Joe Marsh and John Neil.
Joe had been brought up in the Epis-
copal faith, but had attended the Congre-
gational church at times.
He had worked for the. Dickinson Mer-
camille Co. considerable the past year
and seemed to be we'll liked by everyone.
Joe was born in the Old Country, COM
ing to America when three years Of age.
He leaves a father and mother, six BROTH
ers and three sisters.

.,uD,t.r Warmer Than the Earth.

Jupiter Warmer Than the Earth.
The gigantic Of Jupiter has O
much larger warmth than that Of the
earth. 1t is the result Of the molecular
movement produced by the compress
sion of the strata and must be greater
the more powerful the masses, and
hence the larger the pressure Of the
strata is. Jupiter surpasses the earth
in point of mass 307 times, and for this
reason the inner temperature or indi'
vidual warmth of the planet is proba'
bly, high enough to evaporate the water
upon the surface quickly, so that water
vapor forms the principal substance Of
the atmosphere Of Jupiter. Water va
por is an excellent reflector and readily
accounts for the bright radiation Of
light emitted by the planet.-Professor
Hughes in Chicago Tribune.

the Presbyterian church by an almost
unanimous vote-over Capt. Moffett-

Browns In Town.

A we'll known critic declares that the
new farce, browns in Town" which
comes to the opera house Saturday, Jan.
IL, is the bestin many years. The acting
is said to be uncommonly good, and
those familiar with the standing Of play
ers can see that the company is a cap
able one. The substitution of a colored
maid for the conventional Irish or Ger
man maid and the omission of a brother
in-law and an old maid arc two big nov
elites not usually seen in farce.

Rules for Street Traffic.

Among the incidents of the last week was
the arrest of a Fifth avenue omnibus driver
for stopping his vehicle in the middle of the
roadway. instead of close to the curb The
driver was astonished at the arrest de-
claring that in his thirty-ive years experi
ence he had never heard of such a rule as
that which he was charged with violating
1t does not seem that the justice before
whom he was taken was aware of it's exist
ence either. But 1t was found that there
was such an ordinance and that the police
man who made the arrest did his duty 1t
was an instructive example of the ignor-
ance and neglect which may practically
nullify salutary law.
For there is no doubt that the law In
question is salutary. It Is calculated
primarily. we suppose, to promote the
for them to alight close to the sidewalk
instead Of in the middle Of a crowded road.
way. Obviously. too, it serves the purpose
of promoting the rapid and uninterrupted
movement OF traffic, since a vehicle stop
ping at the curb Is far less in the way of
moving vehicles than one stopping In the
middle of the street. And the incident and
the ordinance which it calls to mind sug-
gest the prevalence of various other abuses
Of the highways, which similar ordinances
well enforced might prevent
Grocers and other tradesmen for ex-
ample, have habit Of lettingrtheir wagons
stand at an angle to the curb instead of
close to and parallel with it land thus OBJ
struct twice as much Of thes roadway as
they should. Again. the drivers Of vehicles.
especially Of heavy ones, often keep at Just
such a distance from tha curb that there
Is not quite room for another to pass be-
tween them and 1t, and So make three or
four feet of roadway width unavailable. It
is such practices, Intentional or careless,
which cause a large share Of the confusion
and congestion upon ouri frequented thor
oughfares. The proper regulation of such
matters by ordinance and by the police
would at once add muchsto the safety of
the public. and would greatly Relieve crowd-
ing and facilitate the progress of traffic.

New Orleans Prominence.
, tho dinnaa nolia IGraas

Since the beginning of the fiscal year 1900
New Orleans has passed Boston and is
now the second port Of the United States
in value Of exports. The large increase in
cotton exports is accountable for a share
Of this increase in the business of the port
Of New Orleans and the temporary setback
suffered by Galveston by reason of the
cyclone had much to do with it. but the
fact remains that there is a tendency to
more general distribution of the export
business of the country. During the fiscal
year 1900 the exports from New Orleans
were $115 ,S5S. 764, an increase of S2S, ,0OO, 600
rent fiscal year ending last March the total
was s122, 234 $50. against SS1. la. .051 for Bos-
ton. The Treasury Department statistics
show that New York and Boston are not

almost certain to produce them. The
latest case of aches came from clans in
Harlem. 1t took only four apiece to do
the mischief; that is, four persons ate six
teen CLAIMS, and the clans had been wad-

dressed for the table. The ptomaines, set
loose in the process Of degiutition. cavort-
ed violently through the internal econo-
mics of the party and compelled them to
go to bed. The moral appears to be to
eat CLAIMS at the seashore rather than in
Harlem, or to take them out of their skins
and wash them before eating, or to boil
them so that the ptomaines will come of,
or to eat something else instead. Yet these
warnings will count for little. The appe-
tite for Low Neck CLAIMS in this vicinity is
too well established to be checked by ru-
mors. Too many people eat them and re-
cover to make them much feared. But 1t
