ern guns; that it lacked golfers and
that the coal depots were all exposed

G. w. Savage showed a Journal re-
porter spear of grass, yesterday
which he cut from the grounds near
his home that would have done credit
to a full-grown corn stalk in height
The stalk measured feet. 6 inches in
height. and out of the main stem there
was growing another spear which bid
fair to attain the size of ordinary
grass This seems a remarkable height
for grass to reach. but that fact that
it grew in a shady place may, in a
measure, account for the excessive
growth Mr.. Savage says that large
plot of ground about his house is COW
cred with the same remarkable growth.
