Fire Among the RedwOods.

Perhaps the most startling pheno-
menon of the fire was the quick death
of childlike Sequoias only a century
or two ago, says Jonn Muir
IL the Atlantic. In the midst
Of the other comparatively slow
and steady fire-work, one of
these tall beautiful saplings, leafy
and branchy, would be seen blazing
up suddenly all in one heaving, BOOM
ing, passionate fame reaching from
the ground to the top of the tree, and
fifty to q hundred feet or more above
it, with a smoke column bending for
ward and streaming away on the up
per free-howing wind. To burn these
green trees a strong fire of dry wood
beneath them is required to send up
a current of air not enough to distill
inflammable gases from the leaves
and sprays; then, instead of the lower
limbs gradually catching fire and ig-
hitting the next and next in succession,
the whole tree seems to explode al
most simultaneously, and with awful
roaring and throbbing round taper
ing flame shoots up two or three hun
dred feet, and in a second or two
is quenched, leaving the green spire
a black dead mast bristled and rough
ened with down-curling boughs.

In little one-room house without
windows, situated in a lonely spot
along the Maurice river. short dis
tance from Norma, N. j., lives the sole
survivor of the South Jersey Indians,
Dan Halstead. For more than half q
century this old man, stunning the
ways of civilization as much as possi-
BILE, has clung to the habits of his fore
fathers. Halstead, though not a full
blooded Indian, is said to be grand
son of old Shamung, a great chief
whose tribe had its hunting grounds
along the banks of the Maurice river.
The grandson of the old chief is a
quiet, peaceful sort of fellow, with
out kith or kin. and the only living
friend he has in the world is his dog
Prince, a mongrel. This dog is his
sole companion. Dan Halstead lives
with only one ray of hope to brighten
his existence-that the red man will
return some day to reclaim his hunt
ing grounds and that he will then be-
come q true Indian again and adopt
the costume and manners of his race

CRAZY cRockeR's DREAM.
His Prediction of Transcontinental
Railroad Ridiculed.


The National Magazine has an inter-
esting article on the development OF
American railroad systems, by T.. f.
Clark, grand chief conductor of the
Order of Railroad Conductors.
When the late "Charne Crocker Of
the plains in the forties was by OK
team over the old emigrant trail from
Council Bluffs to San Francisco, he
frequently predicted that within a
comparatively few years a steam rail-
road would be running across the con-
tinent, following substantially the
same course travelled by them. His
prediction was considered so absurd
by his associates that he was nick
named Crazy Crocker" Mr.. Crock
er had the satisfaction of not only see
ing his prediction come true. but of
being one of the leading spirits in the
construction of the first transcontinen-
tai railroad.
Since MIR. Crockers dream was re-
allied and the first transcontinental
line was completed five other distinct
and separate lines have been built to
the Pacific coast, namely: The Cana
dian Pacific, the Great Northern, the
Northern Pacific, the Santa Fe, and
the Southern Pacific. With the exten-
sion of the roads and the building up
of large systems has come CORE
spending increase in the amount OF
business, and the building of railroads
in unsettled and comparatively unex'
plored portions of our domain has done
more to develop the resources of the
country than all other agencies pu'
together.

HORSE CLIPPING
Why ENGLAND Laqs.

At present it is the fashion to blame
the English worlingman, his unions,

In fact. anything but the main rea-
son, which is the woeful ignorance
or suplneness of those who are sup
posed to lead in the English electrical
profession. The American firms get
into the English market In the first
instance by supplying alternating
current machinery which could be de-
pended on to work continuously with
out breakdown. When traction work
came along. what was easier than that
some established English firm should
take an American traction motor and
build some like It? One or two did
essay the task, but they made such
an awful mess Of 1t that 1t was not
until an American firm was establish
ed In the country that reliable home
made car motors could be bought.

If anything Russia excels even Ger
many in the matter of uniforms, writes
correspondent in the Chicago Tri-
bune On the sidewalks of any of the
large cities and more especially at
railway stations, 1t is safe to assert
that a least 25 percent of all male
adults are in uniform. 1t is puzzle to
the tourist to identify the bearers of
such distinctive garbs, consequently
the different branches of the govern
ment service are often wrongly inter-
preted. The gaudy uniform does not
always indicate high official, as an
officer of high rank may appear In a
plain uniform and one Of low rank not
infrequently parades the streets with
more fuss and feathers than his COM
mander.

The Last t;oot.by.

There's one goodby that seems to
drown all the Others" said a veteran
transatlantic traveller the other day.
II don't know why it is, but the long
whistles from the countless craft on
the way down the upper and lower
bays appear fiat and wooden to the
three long blasts which the red hulled
lightship on Sandy Hook bar pipes
cut to us as, with the pilot safe in the
take-off boat the dial marks full
speed in the engine room. and we go
scooting off to the eastward, to begin
our long trip to Europe. Salutes are
a mere conventionality alongside this
cheerful God speed you of the light
ship. 1t reminds one of the hearty
handshake of big hearted man when
ones luck has been on the ebb.
THE formal whistles of the myriad
of consequential tugs that were met
on the way out, the acre of white linen
that whipped the air at the pier end as
we backed into the stream, the toot-
ing of the lodging ferry boats and the
screeching of the small fry going sea-
ward through the winding channels
are one and all remembered when we
turn in for the night, but forgotten
when we turn out the next morning
for a roll with old Neptune and coffee
with shipmates. The three long blasts
of the lightship, still on the bar, in all
probability, but now many miles back
of our creamy wake, alone remains
fixed in the memory of the goodbyes
that came from the soul."-New York

There was a time when the efforts
of people to escape compulsory vaccin-
alton would have been less unreason-
able than they are now. When ply
sicians used humanized lymph from
the arms of children who may have
been the victims of constitutional dis
eases) there was supposed to be dan
ger of developing incidental disorders.
AS a matter of fact, however most of
the charges of the transmission of
disease through vaccination were
groundless. In this day the virus is
prepared with the utmost care, and is
fully protected from all possibility of
germ infection. Only the bovine
virus is used, and the animals from
which it is obtained are always in per-

Political and social conditions will

existing race antagonism. More than

English neighbor and Dutch neighbor
