is IN jail here charged with bigamy. TO-
day declared 10 a reporter who inter-
viewed him in his cell that the woman

In the meantime Won Liebich had mar
ried second wife-Mrs Frona r. Hale.

lou's to discuss a money claim which he
had been told had been made against him
by the first wife. While there he was
confronted by the first wife in the pres
ence of the second and subsequently was
locked up. When seen by a reporter
yesterday the baron seemed to be taking
his arrest nonchalantly.
While living with this woman from
Norway he said, 81 had reasons to sup
pose that relatives OF mine would inform
my mother that / was leading an i'm
moral life. She was ia poor health, and
10 save her the shock of hearing of the
bad conduct OF her son / pretended 10
her and TO others that the woman and |
were really married"

A Notable Bridge Feat.

In the transportation of logs from
the heart OF the California timber
belt to the mills, an important engin-
eering feat has been accomplished. A
canon Oh the south fork Of the Ameri-
can River had to be trayegsed and as
1t was 1OC0 feet deep, It was determined
to build a steel-wMc suspension tram
way. The distance across the canon
is 1850 feet Between the two termi-
nal towers the space is 205O feet.
Two parallel cables span this i'm
mense gap, without support between
the towers. On these cables runs a
cage conveying a car capable of carry
ing 5000 feet Of green, and, therefore,
very heavy, timber on each trip. The
tower terminals are anchored in the
solid rock, supporting the cables, on
which, over the canon Of n depth Of
1000 feet, where the rivers course
seems like a riyulet, passes to and fro
the skeleton iron cage, running on
deep-grooyed trolley-Wheels, and carry
ing its enormous load Of green tim
Der with great apparent ease.

Former Lnndscnpe Gardening.

! much fear that Washington's land
scape gardening at Mount Vernon
with his mock oranges and French
willows and English yews that he no
doubt intended to cut and trim into
preposterous shapes would to us
seem very much like somebody trying
to play a Gregorian chant on a spinet.
He writes to Governor Clinton, Of
New York, thanking him for some
balsam trees, and speaks pleasantly
Of the grapevines which the Cheva-
ller de Lucerne has promised to send
him from France. The entries in his
diary in 1885 show him to be planting
ivy, which, dare say, some one
brought him from Kenilworth, and
which, with true English persistence
has alone survived to our day OF all
his planting. Elsewhere he has re-
corded his settings of a greenbrier
hedge, interspersed with hemlock
trees from Occoquan, and then he is
sowing "holly bushes in drills"
In those days it was necessary and
customary to go to England, where
beauty was still worshiped according
to its perspective for that which was
oldest and best and for many years
after the American Revolution we i'm
itated England in our gardens much
more servilely than we did in our lit
erature, and the early plaisances Of
America no doubt reflected the de-
mure beauty Of Thompson and Cow
per - Cowper, Of whom Taine said
that he looked at a tree and argued
about the immortality Of the soul. 1t
took us a long time to learn that 1t
was an affectation to trim our log
cabins with English Ivy and try to
make them look castellated.
Since Washington Irving died, and
took the Hudson River school with
him, Horticulture in America, like a
great many other things, has put on
her seven league boots. If Irving
should come back to Sunnyside, or
the great chief after whom he was
named should return to Mount Yer
non, they would know their places
only by the sacred decay. Veneration,
like the hand OF death, has staid q
ruthless progression. Country Life
