An old su,er.tition.

A curious example of superstition
was made public the other day through
the medium Of the law courts Of Berlin
A tree growing opposite the gateway OF
farmer was noticed to be whitening
away and dying. On further inyestiga-
tion 1t was found that a deep hole had
been bored In II, probably by some per
son who. wished to kill IT. As the tree
somewhat incommoded the entrance to
the farmers house, he was charged
with the deed and fined. He, however,
appealed to a higher court and succeed
ed in proving that the hole had been
bored by some superstitious person who
believed In the old superstition that IL

driven away by 'burying" II in .
healthy tree. A lole is bored in the
tree. and all kinds Of medicines are
buried In the hole. which il then care
fully stopped up amid the singing Of
weird incantations. This could have
been done by any superstitious person
in the neighborhood. the farmer pointed
out. The judge acquitted him.

told him he was liable to drop dead

seven mile journey TO visit a sister, and
while crossing a bridge on which a
crowd had gathered to watch the flood
the bridge gave way with a crash and
thirty-six people were swallowed up In
the rushing waters. That Caleb was

be a doubt. as half dozen people who

1t was struggle between Anson Da-

win the love and the hand Of Mary
Doyle. There was rivalry. but no ill
feeling. When Caleb won the prize. An
son slapped him on the back and said:
"All right. Caleb. You are the lucky
man. don't believed was ready to
marry just yet anyhow. I'll wait two
or three years and then marry your
widow"
That's mighty kind Of you" answer

that you'll take my place will make me

Six months after the marriage Caleb
Jones went down to the city on bust.

occasion. While In a befuddled state
he was carried aboard Of ship bound

Soon after the funeral Anson Davis
called ON the widow and said:

scutatiOn-The Convention Proper
 Finds 1t Has No Quorum and Finally
 Adjourns.
 Hartford Feb. 1S.-In the absence of President Andrews the constitutional convention was called to order to-day by Vice President Waller of New Lon don. Chaplain Smith of Plymouth of fered prayer. Delegate Lines of Meri- den offered resolution providing that the general assembly shall have power to enact any law involving a principal of initiative and referendum. MT. Fiske of Branford offered a resolution providing that each town in the state shall send a senator to the general as sembIy. the house of representatives to be composed of as many members as the senate. Both these resolutions were referred to the committee of the whole
 A discovery was made at this point that there were but sixty three dele gates in the convention and a recess was accordingly taken until 3 o'clock in the expectation that at that time there would be enough delegates present to make 8 quorum and go into commit tee of the whole
 When the delegates reassembled at 2 o'lcock there was still quorum lack ing, and adjournment was taken until II o'clock tomorrow.
 ACTION AT A MINORITY MEETING.
 Hartford, Feb 18.-Forty delegates representing the minority faction of the constitutional convention met in the senate ante room at 80 to-day and adopted a resolution offered by Dele gate Bryant of Orange requesting the majority to appoint committee of conference of twenty -four delegates to discuss with the minority a plan of house representation.
 Colonel Osborn of New Haven was one of the speakers. He said his views had been modified somewhat since the last session of the committee of the whole, and that he is now prepared to introduce compromise representation measure. Colonel Osborn's new bill provides for one representative from each town of less than 1,500, two for towns having more than 1,500 and less than 10000 population, and one addi- tional representative for each 10000 in excess of 10000 The New Haven dele gate said this plan would give 2S0 members in the house. He added that there was some reason to hope that it would go through

lives having no concerted plan. The chances are, however that they will all get clear away long before the patrol comes within sight of them Mean- while the advanced scouts may have found out by cunning methods, learned from natives, exactly what precautions are being taken to guard the camp. Keeping keen watch on the skyline, they will have seen every sentry posted at sunset and taken note of the easiest way to get in through broken links of the outpost chain. ...
 One scout carries this information back to the nearest group of comrades, whose hiding place he knows, whence 1t is carried on by short relays to the com- mandant's headquarters; the other re- mains to give warning if the British column should break camp or show signs of greater vigilance before the Boer main body can come up. That may possibly have been a dozen miles off at nightfall, and not even concern trated. But the different detachments keep touch with each other even when scattered over a wide area. At word they are ready to move forward, con- Nerging as they advance and always secure against surprise, until they have passed their foremost line of watchers.
 Thus a. formidable force is brought together at point leagues distant from the billets it's men occupied two or three hours earlier. The best intelligence off, ficer, served by the keenest scouts, if they do not know every dodge that the Boer is cunning in, may have learned no more than that few detached bands of ragged burghers were hover ing about.
 Thus the opportunity for a dash comes, and De Wet has shown that he knows how to profit by such chances when the odds are all in his favor. But he may reckon without his host some day, and the oftener he practices these tactics the better will be our chance of catching him.-Correspondence of the London Daily Mail
