GOVERNOR 9hFFS CABLEGRAM
May Be Obliged to Break Off
Farley With Vatican.
POSITION TAKEN BY ROME
Willing to Allow Spanish Clergy Grad
ually to Be Replaced by Other Ma
tionaIities-Compromise Not Accepta-
ble-Reply to Gov. Taft's CablegTam.

Another serious hitch IN the negotia-
tions at Rome with reference to the Ro-
man Catholic Church property iii the
Philippines is Indicated in a long cable
gram from Governor Taft al Rome Civ
ing the text Of the Vatican's reply to
the American proposals regarding
church interests in the Philippines The
Vatican proposes al agreement on the
various questions involved and sirni-
fes a willingness to dispose oG The
Church lands 10 the Philippine go~-.n-
ment. the question Of title and values
u be determined by arbitration
The same board OF arbitration IS to
consider the San Jose College case and
decide upog the indemnity to be paid
by tbe United States cor the use Of
church property during he war in the
Islands
Pope Declares Inability.
The most important feature Of the
answer however, Is the failure Of the
Vatican to agree to withdraw The
friars. Governor Taft asked that all
Spanish friars be withdrawn within q
stated time. Fhe Pope declares his in
ability 10 do this and Eases his refusal
OF the ninth article Of the treaty OF
Paris.
Should the Vatican persist in this at
titude toward the withdrawal Of the
Friars there is no doubt the negotiations
viii be broken of by Governor Taft. The
withdrawal Of the Friars is considered
practically a condition precedent to the
continuance Of the negotiations and Sec
retaTy Root has cabled Governor Taft
that the United States must insist uDon
the complete Withdrawal Of the o5iec-
tionable Spanish clergy.
Reply Of Secretary Root.
The eabIegram sent TO Governor Taft
by Secretary Root early this afternoon
says that the United States cannot agree
TO the proposal OF the Vatican TO intro
duee clergy Of other nationalities gradu-
ally to replace the Spanish friars. but is
compelled TO insist upon a definite state
ment as to when all the friars will be
withdrawn from t f, archipelago.
Vice Governor Wright has cabled the
Secretary Of War that the charges Of
proselyting made against Protestant
American teachers in the Philippines is
without foundation.

The Higher Use. of Trees.

Most people have formed the habit OF
talking about shade trees. fruit trees
and lumber as if shade, fruit and build
ing materials were all for which the
trees were good. OF course the artistic
eye looks at them for beauty, the ento-
mologist as harbors for insects and the
botanist for herbarium specimens. but
the true lover of the tree thinks of 1t
In it's wide value to all living things in
the universe.
Though trees lack the power of voli-
ton and have no nervous system in
the ordinary sense of the word, they
are highly organized forms of life.
They accomplish vast amount of ac-
tual work in a day and earn their liv-
Ing as surely as you or ] do. Their
work is the worlds work of the unself-
lsh kind. They struggle for self preser-
walton and the perpetuation OF their
species; they return to the soil and to
the atmosphere materials loaned them
for food; they are altruistic in provid-
Ing an abundance Of fruit for the use
Of others; they furnish grateful shade
to man and beast, are the refuge of
birds and insects and add to the beauty
Of nature.

ana, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas and Colo
RADIO to the Rockies were not treeless
to so large an extent. Recent expert
ments seem to establish that point.
Tests by the weather bureau at widely
separated places on the same parallel of
latitude have shown that the mean an
nual temperature is lower at the sta
tons in the wooded districts than at
those on the open plains. And, while
that is true, it has also been found
that the extremes both of heat and
cold were greater on the plains than in
the forests.
Forests it is easy to see, act as wind
breaks both in cold and in hot weather,
and thus they tend to moderate the
temperature in the country surround
ing them If careful study were
made of the location of the forests in
the western country hundred or sew
enty-five years ago. it might be shown
that they covered Ohio, Indiana, Ken
lucky, Michigan. Wisconsin and Min
nesota to such an extent that they
must have Influenced the mean tenn
perature of the whole prairie section
and that their wholesale removal has
brought about changed conditions for
the inhabitants of the west.

ONE trees charm the eye of
the beholder with their
magnitude or their pictur-
~ esqueness or their beauty
Of outline and foliage, while others in
terest the mind by the stories they tell.
-Four trees noted for generations as
souvenirs of important events in Amer
lean history are the Washington Elm,
the Charter Oak, the Council Tree and
PENIS Treaty Tree. Recently the
Spanish war has added the Surrender
Tree at Santiago to the ranks of cele-
brated forest monarchs.
The Charter Oak, at Hartford, Conn.
was reputed to be venerable at the
time it became famous. Tradition says
in 1897, the daring spirits of the colony
of Connecticut hid in its trunk the
charter of their liberties as a ruse to
avoid the surrender of the document
to the kings officer. King Charles IL.
had granted the charter, and his broth
er and successor, the Duke of York,
empowered Governor Andross to recall
all New England charters and rule the
colonies as one realm. The people
Of the colony of Connecticut refused
to give up their rights, and when the
charter was demanded hid it in the
hollow trunk of the ancient oak. King
James was driven from his throne and
charter remained in full force. The
old tree was destroyed by storm in
1854.
PENIS Treaty Tree stood on the banks
of the Delaware river at place orig
1nally called Shackamaxon, but now
Kensington, within the precincts Of
Philadelphia. It's history dates back
to day in November, 1852, when Will
liam Penn. the English Quaker col
onist, met under it's spreading branches
the chiefs of the Delaware tribe of red
men and concluded the famous treaty
which became the foundation stone of
the great commonwealth of Pennsyl-
vania. Among other pleasant things
Penn said to the children of the forest:
eve meet in the broad pathway of
good faith and good will. No advan-
tage shall be taken on either side, but
all shall be openness and love. We
are all one flesh and blood"
The Indians listened with delight
for Penn was a new type of white
man. They said, "We will live in love
with William Penn and his children as
long as the sun and the moon shall en-
dure." The treaty was not sworn to
and it was never broken.
PENIS treaty tree was spreading
elm. 1t was long venerated for its as
sociations, and Penn himself once tried
to purchase the estate on which il
stood. 1t was often painted, and copies
of the original drawings are still in ex
istence. During a gale in December
1910, the venerable tree was prostrat
ed and found by the rings in its trunk
to be $50 years old.
Under the shades of another wide
spreading and glorious American elm

ing t. the open country. This plan the
citizens opposed, and Lincoln, finding
the cause hopeless, soon afterward
surrendered the troops and the city.
Conspicuous on the bit Of landscape
which is included in the San Juan Bat
tlefield park at Santiago is the famous
Surrender Tree, where General Shafter
met the Spanish commander, Toral
and arranged for the surrender Of the
city. The tree is a ceiba. or silk cot
ton, and one of the largest in that re-
gion. The ceiba tree is never found in
forests and usually stands in the open
because it drives out all other varie-
ties. 1t is quite as common an arbo-
real feature in the West Indies as the
oak and elm In the United States.
All the conferences between the Span
negotiations about surrender were held
under the Surrender Tree. 1t was there
that Generals Miles and Toral had their
preliminary talk on the 18th of July,
three days before the surrender. The
ceiba stood midway between the lines.
The surrender commissioners met at
2 o'clock in the afternoon, and after
the details had been discussed and cop
les Of the treaty prepared in Spanish
and English the signatures We're af-
fixed 1t was then 5 o'clock. The GER
emory of surrender was witnessed by
the general officers of both armies,
with their STATS and guard of 100
soldiers. At the same time General
Shafter returned to General Toral the
sword and spurs taken by the Ameri-
cans from the body of General del Rey,
the Spanish leader who fell in the de-
Tense of El Caney.
Other famous American trees were
the Stuyvesant Pear Tree, which stood
over 200 years at Third avenue and
Thirteenth street, New York; Pontiac's
Memorial Tree, at Detroit; Arnod's
Willow, in the Hudson highlands; the
Washington Cypress, at Norfolk and
the Miami Apple Tree, near Fort Wayne.

THE CHARTER OAK AT HARTFORD.


Washington drew his sword on the
3D. of July, 1775, and assumed COM
mand OF the Revolutionary army.
Washington's Elm now stands in the
middle of a street in Cambridge and
has many visitors. who are pleased to
carry away as souvenirs scraps of its
crumbling bark or falling leaves. At
the time of the incident the tree stood
at the north end of the Cambridge
common and was then noted for its
size and beauty. The Continental forces
were ranged upon the common to re-
ceive their new chief.
For nearly three-quarters of a GEN.
tury. or from 1870 to 1849. the south
had a historic tree in the famous mag
nolia which stood in Charleston in
side of the line of old Revolutionary
Notifications. The branches Of this
beautiful magnolia spread over 200
feet The incident which made the
Council Tree of Charleston historic was
an unpleas SAINT one for the Revolution
lists, but the people Of the city never
ceased to venerate it. In 1850 General
Lincoln commanded the garrison OF
Charleston during a siege by the Brit
ish. In the early spring Of that year
the besiegers were REINFORCED by
command under General Clinton. and
Lincoln called council Of the leading
men in Charleston to discuss the ad-
visibility Of leaving the city to its
fate and saving the army by retreat

May Rice.

We }for the past five years
nave made the rice business a
special study and from observa.
tl"n and practical experience we
learn that as a general rule rice
that is planted about the first of
May prod uces more to the acre,
and invariably is IL better uality
than the late rices. We have no
special reasons for stating that
the May rice produces more to
the acr unless it is due to the
fact hal the cold weather is suff-
Gently over to keep from killing
the young rice. and again it is
never hot enough during it's
youth for the water to scald it
out, therefore all the rice which
sprouts during this month if
properly watered will produce
tine large aud heavy heads. Now
as to the quality, we and all rice
farmers know that all early May
rice will mature about the latter
pat OF August or the first part
of September, which is the be-
ginning Of our dry season, there
fore the farmer has plenty of
time to cut and thrash his rice
while the season is at it's best,
which insures good firm and
bright grain. 1t is indeed Il rare
thing to see early May rice
chaEky or mildewed; and were
we to plant rice again we would
not plant any later than the 18th
of May.-Gueydan News.
