TREE THAT TURNS TO STONE
After Being Cut, the Wood Gradually
Hnrdens and In n Few Years
Pctrinea.

Mr.. W. r. Porter has now discovered
a tree in Mexico called by the natives
the "chijol," which is of most re-
narkable nature. reports the New
York Herald.
If all that is alleged of this phenom-
email tree is correct it will some day
revolutionize the stone trade. The
"chijol," or the "stone tree" as Mr..
Porter designates it, is of enormous
proportions, both in circumference
and height. 1t has quite a number Of
branches spreading out widely and
carrying leaves of yellowish-green
color, something like the myrtle.
The wod is extremely fine and in a
green state is easily worked, and is
not given to either warping or split
ting.
The wonderful part about it is that
after being cut the wood gets grad
ually harder, and in the course OF a
few years It is absolutely petrifed,
whether left In the open air or buried
in the ground,
From this wood houses can be built
that would in few years become com
pletely freproof and would last as
though built of stone. As the wood
does not, even in its completely petri-
fed state, change either its color or its
finely grained surface, it offers indeed
great possibilities for new and artis-
tic embellishments in the style of our
buildings, both interiorly and exter-
iorly, besides the advantage Of its be-
ing freproof

cHAsEs STRAWBERRIES.
IdvrFpooI MIlltepnire VhO Travels
Mueh in Quest of the Fresh
FFuit.

The queerest fad of a millionaire
globe trotter is that of John X. Hamp-
ton, of Liverpool, He made his mil
lions on the corn exchange and holds
the golden key to the worlds pleas
ures. Yet he spends his life chasing
the strawberry, says the Cincinnati
Enquirer.
When he was working night and day
amassing gold he found that q plate
of really fresh strawberries and
cream was the finest delicatessen he
could have. Fortune smiled on him i'm
1891, and the following year found him
so wealthy that further work would
have been madness. 1t was early Sep
tember and he went at once to Cairo,
where fresh Strawberries can be OBJ
tanned during that month. Since that
date he has regularly followed the
late spring, and so the strawberry,
from Cairo to Algiers, from Algiers
up through Spain from south to north,
and likewise through France. Then,
in early May, when the strawberry
season in that country is finishing, he
crosses to the Channel Isles and
chases the smiling fruit across to
Cornwall, generally landing in Eng
land in the middle OF June His trip
finishes IN Scotland at the end OF Au-
gust, when he takes a through ticket
back to Cairo, and so commences his
tour again.

ELECTION LESSONS.

The republican papers in the state
which supported the regular ticket
at the last election nearly all, now
that the result is known, recognize
the formidable opposition aroused
by the fusion elements and are
sounding notes of warning to the
party. They deemed it more pru-
dent to remain within the lines for
the present and make the attempt to
rectify the wrongs which exist than
to go outside and break the party
strength. Notice is now served on
the managers that in future there
must be more consideration given to
public demands, that the abuses
which have grown up within the
party must cease and those men
who arrogantly assume that the
great majority in this state is am
pie to secure their tenure in office
no matter what the transgressions
must be made to understand that
they will be held responsible. With
proper nominations of upright men
the party will so on prospering and
regain public confidence, but to be
responsible for such legislation as
was enacted at Harrisburg at last
session of the legislature and with
candidates of doubtful integrity it
is probable that the party will suffer
defeat even IN this rock ribbed state.

One of the benefactions which
might be accomplished by a village
improvement society would be a
public watering trough. The ladies
of the town could hardly erect a
more lasting monument to their
names generally than by furnishing
something which would be so uni
versally appreciated in this section.
A neat trough set up in convenient
location is one Of the needs of the
town and would evoke a blessing
from hundreds of thirsty animals
on the Milford village improvement
society. Organ fund societies here
have accomplished their objects.
The churches are all we'll supplied
with musical instruments and have
no other especial present needs.

to ornament and beautify the town?

Old Settlements.

Samuel, grandfather of Albert
Helms of this town, was probably
the first settler of Lords Valley.
His house stood just beyond the
brick residence erected by Simeon
Lord and near where clump of
pines is now growing. This settle
ment was prior to 1903. In that
year his son, Hiram, was born,
whose descendants relate that he
remembered a saw mill which stood
at Shohola Falls when he was a
youth, but no grist mill. He, how
ever, once found castings, apparent
Iy cogs, which had been on n wood
en- shaft at the ford near Shohola
farms. There was a very ancient
burying ground along the creek
there and at one time high water
tore out many graves and scattered
bones along the stream.
