Tree, Thai Bprst Ahnme.

Trees are subject to spontaneous
combustion. The banks of the Cam
river, in Cambridgeshire. England,
have recently exhibited an unusual
number of such cases, and young grow
ing willows have been the victims in
nearly every case. Cambridge used to
pride itself upon its beautiful willows,
and 1t was therefore with sorrow that
the people discovered one morning the
charred remains of what had once been
n really beautiful specimen of the viii.
low tree.
The fate Of the tree naturally at
tracted attention to the phenomenon,
and thereafter but too much oppor-
tunity was Afforded for the study
OF 1t. At one point in the river in par
ticular the process was seen. Green
trees, covered with rich masses of
foliage, suddenly burst forth into con-
fiagration and burned to their very
cores. Fine willows in full vigor pour
ed forth clouds of smoke from their
half burned stems.
An examination of the cbarred re-
mains of the trees revealed nothing in
the way of explanation, but as the
trees which met their fates We're for
the most part young there could hardly
have been any putrescence or fermen-
tation. Just why the willows should
meet such sudden ends is not apparent.
He wouldn't Interfere.
An old Scotchman went to stay for
a short time. as he said, with friends
of his, young couple with no family.
After living with them for some two
or three weeks the young couple began
to get tired of their visitor. but did
not like to tell him the state of their
feelings toward him. SO they arranged
a little plan between them as to how
49, Xould get rid of him.

Cures When Doctors Fail.

AMENDING STATE BOUNDARIES.

Discussing the effort of Senator
kearns of Utah to have the north
western part of Arizona annexed to his
state, the Philadelphia Press express
es the opinion that the plains region
of Montana should have been made
part of Wyoming, while the mountain
GUS part should have been Joined to
Idaho. That is now impracticable,
but ii thinks that before it is too late
New Mexico and Arizona should be
made one.
In this the Press exhibits its igno-
rance of western conditions and the ex.
tent and character of the of
this part of the United States. 1t
could with as near an approach to
truth have said that all the New Eng
land states should be thrown into one
that New Jersey should be attached
to Pennsylvania and that Delaware
should be made a part of Maryland.
New Mexico and Arizona are each
able to support a larger population
than that of any New England state
except Massachusetts. and as for Wy
oming and Montana they will in time
be numbered among the great Amer.
lean commonwealths-great not only
in area, but also in population and
wealth. There will always be more
states east of the Mississippi than
west OF that stream. but before the
end of the present century the west
will in a measure make up for this
deficiency in the magnitude and local
strength OF its great states.

1t would be pleasant if the world
were run by the Golden Rule, and
then we wouldn't need any laws. SO
it would be nice if all good laws were
enforced and all bad ones repealed.

NEW TAX CODE.
Report Of the Minnesota Tax commls.
5 sion Made Public.

sion Made Public. @
st. Paul, Jan. 1.-THE state tar
commission has filed its report. to-
gether with the bill for new tax code,
with the governor. The report con.
tains 75 typewriter pages and the bill
225 pages.
Among the most Important of the
new features is the creation of per-
manent state tax commission of three
members; county supervisor Of as
county boards Of equalization, which
are to be known hereafter as boards of
review.
The state tax commission is u be
composed of three members, who are
to receive $4,000 per year each, to have
extensive powers with regard to the
examination of records and persons
and the increase or abatement Of as.
sessments. SS
The commissioners also have super
vision over the county supervisors and
at least one of them is to visit each
county in the state during the year to
investigate the workings of the tax
law. Township assessors are retained.
Over them is the county supervisor of
assessments, who In counties of over
$4,000 Inhabitants is to devote all his
time to the office. The supervisor is
not only to instruct the assessors, but
to investigate books and records in the
several towns and cities himself.
Governor Van SAINT has called the
legislature to meet in special session
Tuesday. Feb. 4. to consider the re-
port Of the tax commission. No refer.
ence is made in the call to any other
business than the consideration of the
tax report. It will be for the legisla-
ture to say whether other subjects will
be taken up,

RICHARD CROKER RETIREs.
Lewis Nixon ls Chosen as the New
Chief Of Tammany Hall.

Lewis Nixon Is Chosen as the New
Chief Of Tammany Hall.
New York, Jan. 13.-Richard Croker
has announced his retirement from
the formal leadership of Tammany
Hall. The announcement was made
at the meeting of the executive COM
mittee at which the plan of organiza-
tion for the year 1902 was agreed
upon. Lewis Nixon was chosen as
Mr.. Croker's successor as the chair.
man of the finance committee. This
position by long usage carries with it
the leadership of the organization.
In announcing the name of Mr.,
Nixon for the Craftsmanship of the
finance committee, George M. Van
Hoesen, president of the general COM
mfttee, said that the step was taken
at the desire of Mr.. Croker. Mr.. Gro
ker, however. did not express himself
until all the business before the meet
ing had been transacted, when he
arose and addressed the chair. There
was a distinct rustic of expectancy in
the crowded room as he did so. He
spoke in his habitually quiet manner,
but such stiffness prevailed that
every word he uttered was clearly
heard by all. His tone was CONVEX
sational one, but there was something
like tremor in his voice and he
walked back and forth across the room
in a way not entirely familiar to those
who have often heard him speak.
In beginning he said that the ap-
poi1tment of Mr.. Nixon to the chair
manship Of the finance committee had
his full approval and he hoped that
Mr.. Nixon would receive the same
consideration and good will which had
been extended to himself.
