Most Expensive Tree in World.


Probably the most expensive tree
in the world is in the city of London,
on the corner of Cheapside and Wood
street, about midway between the
Bank of England and st. Paul's. It
is an enormous oak and is said to be
100 years old. 1t is protected by a
clause in the deed OF the property
which forbids destruction of tree or
branches. Architects we're compelled
to plan a rather peculiar building to
avoid the branches There it stands
in the corner of one of the busiest
streets in London, occupying ground
of enormous value-and positively

A writer in the Rural New Yorker
one of the oldest of agricultural papers
calls attention to the advertisement
now being published in SO many papers
asking readers to send for spawn from
which to grow mushrooms in cellars.
While all that they represent may be
true, an old and successful grower
says that while large prices are some
tines obtained, 50 cents pound is a
good average price. AS to growing it
in, cellars, 1t is of course, possible, but
as fresh dressing from the stable is
one of the first essentials Of culture,
the odor rising into the living rooms
is hardly agreeable. Neither is the
handling of the material work particu-
larly adapted for women and girls. as
often represented. 1t is simply another
scheme for getting money from those
who are trying to "get rich quick" and
it is believed that large amount of
money has been realized by the promot-
ers Of this and the ginseng scheme.

FIGHT FOR CONVENTION

Much interest has been attached to
the meeting today Of the republican ma
tional committee, not only on account
of its political Importance, but because
it will decide the time and place of hold
ing the next national convention which
will nominate candidates for president
and vice president. As to the time
there will probably not be much dis
cussion. Congressman and senators
are not anxious for long session, and
will adjourn as early as possible, and
the convention will probably be held
not later than June.
That however, Is not so interesting
lust now as the question of where the
convention shall be held The canvass
by various cities has been going on
quietly for some time, and as the time
for decision draws near the contest
is becoming more active. The principal
contestants, from present indications,
are likely to be Chicago, st. Louis and
Milwaukee, with the first two in the
lead. Chicago refers to it's past record
as a convention city and offers induce
ments, including "a guarantee fund Of
$4,000 and the use Of the Coliseum
building, to be equipped by the city
at cost Of $4,000. The guarantee fund
however, is required of all cities desir-
ing the convention and in that respect
all the applicants are on the same foot
ing. The other offers of Chicago, to-
gether with the hotel and telegraphic
facilities, make that city q strong can
didate. ai.
st. Louis, as well as Chicago, wants
both national conventions and Q lead
ing indueement held out is the fact that
the worlds fair will be in progress and
that everybody will want to see it, a
circumstance that will enable people to
kill two birds with one stone. The
prestnce Of the exposition, however,
is being used as an argument against
holding the convention there, 1t being
alleged that the combination of hot
weather and crowded hotels will out
weigh other. advantages. Milwaukee is
making a quieter fight and promises to
entertain the convention handsomely II
it should go there.
IN addition to these cities, Pittsburg,
Detroit and SAN Francisco are also
making bids, Pittsburg presenting the
argument that as the first Republican
convention was held there more than
hall century ago 1t would be mat
ter of historic interest to hold next
years meeting there also. Chicago, st.
Louis and Milwaukee, however, appar-
entity have the call, with the chances
