MINER IN PARLIAMENT.
IHRho,t Ambition to Servo Interests of
Fellow Workers,

Having spent IS years under ground,
welding a miners pick when he was
10 years old. the member of parlia-
ment for Morepeth, Thomas Burt.
might be expected to know a little on
mining matters and the wages of the
black toilers. Burt's history affords a
grand example of that ennobling prin-
ciple of "self-help" which Smiles has
advocated and Abraham Lincoln ex-
plotted. The son of Peter Burt, a
miner, born at the beginning of the
Victorian era in tiny cottage ad-
joining the coal line which runs from
Blackworth to the Northumberland
docks, Thomas had to rush his village
schooling and assimilate his wisdom
with the aid of stray books and dig
gers lamp. No astrologer could have
foretold that this rough Northum-
brian lad was destined to be an officer
of state in the Victorian reign. The
youngster went down into the pit, the
mental companion of Shakespeare.
Milton, Scott and John Stuart Mill. AS
young Burt grew up he was always on
good terms of fellowship with asso-
ciates without deeming 1t necessary to
accompany them to the public house.
He has always been an abstainer He
also became a Primitive Methodist and
a man of peace He had no ambition
save to serve the interest Of his fel-
iow-miners. They have ever respected
him, and given him a choice Of Off
cial positions in their unions. Since
1874 he has enjoyed the by no means
slight distinction of having sat in the
house without losing those good quail
tiles which caused him to be sent there
by his companions in toll.

there will be at that time large grove
of trees growing just as confidently
and prosperously as If they had fur
nished the shade for the place for
many year. These trees have been
brought from Westchester county and
from the border of Connecticut. They
have been selected with the greatest
care, all with a view to harmonizing
with distinctive artistic design. They
have been taken up, root and branch,
and hauled in huge trucks from their
native spots to adorn Mr.. Carnegie's
Fifth avenue park. In moving these
trees care was taken not to injure the
smallest of their twigs. There was
no pairing, no cutting anywhere. Mr..
Carnegie is getting old, and he wanted
these stately growths. now in all their
native glory. They were to grow in
Fifth avenue just as they had done in
the woods and forests for 20, 80 and
40 years. Modern science and invent
i've genius have made 1t possible to
transplant trees now without the loss

beauty. This is done by means of a
complicated trucking system. At

iron wheels is long wooden pole. at
right angles to the axle, and forming

covered in the middle by a sort of
felt saddle. This apparatus is moved
against the tree, the saddle against its
| side. Two large hooks, like fishhooks
are then placed under the two main
roots Of the trees. These hooks are
suspended by a cable stretching over
the top of the pole attached to the
axle. This cable is now pulled over
the top of the pole by machine, and
the hooks pull the tree up without in
juring it, bringing the small fibrous
roots and the earth that surrounds

MniIon of Solar SYstem.

improvement is the application OF me-

FAMOUS PEARL NECKLACE.

The famous necklace of the Countess
