Very warlike is the aspect of sin
gular equestrian statue in Belgium, yet
there is no cause for alarm since 1t is
nothing but tree. Some ten years
ago a policeman retired from the force
and went to live near CharIeroi. Being
an amateur horticulturist, he busted
himself good deal with trees and
flowers. and one day as he was trim
ming a hawthorn in his garden it &C.
cured to him that ii would be novel
idea to train it in such manner that
it would eventually assume the figure
of a cavalry officer. At once he went
to work, and after ten years labor he
succeeded in transforming the tree into
a perfect picture of mounted soldier.
The tree is known in the neighborhood
as General Hawthorn" aud hardly a
day passes that strangers do not come
from a considerable distance in order
to view this wonderful example of hor-
ticultural art.

merry carried on with the utmost Sc
crecy to prevent the processes from be
coming known elsewhere. The estab-
lishment was complete fortress. the

or night, no stranger being permitted
to enter for any purpose whatever.
Every workman, even the chief in

Injunction was formally repeated ev-
cry month to the superior officers en-
ployed, while the workmen had con-
stantly before their eyes in large let

Death" 1t was well known that any
person divulging the process would be
imprisoned for life in the castle Of
Koenigstein. Even the king himself
when he took strangers of distinction
to visit the works was enjoined to Sc

In Shakespeare's plays the term
sack" applied TO wine is common.

the sack" of old English authors and
the ''sec' of French writers-is used in
contradistinction to the sweet malvoi-
sizes and muscadels which are made of
the same grapes. Wine of this sort.
it is said, was introduced into England
about the time of Henry VII, whose
close alliance with Ferdinand and Isa-
bella was cemented by the marriage of
his son with their daughter. II became
still more popular in England Under
Queen Elizabeth. when Essex and
those who sailed with him pillaged
Cadiz in 1896 and brought home the
fashion Of drinking sherris sack.

to his adversary. Sir Miles Partridge,

removed the bell. Queen Mary some
times resorted to cards and was seldom
more lucky than her father, losing oc-

and would play night after night and
even on a Sunday till daylight, while
singers entertained the company from

and the night playing cards.
George Ill. detested cards and disap-

Narrow Escape OF Gold Seekers.

A small company of Alaskan gold
seekers were walking across one of the
great ice fields in that winter bound
country when one of them noticed a
difference In the color of the ice few
yards before them. Almost as he spoke.
however, the treacherous coating of
thin ice across a Jagged crevasse gave
way, and with an awful cry the two
foremost men went down with the
crumbling glittering surface. A third
man would have followed. but his gun
lodged crosswise in the crevice and
saved him. The other two had sunk
out of sight. only their voices guiding
their rescuers. Blankets were torn into
strips and all the available rope used
as well to reach the unfortunate prison
ers, TO whom hatchets also had to be
lowered to hack their way out. so tight
~ had they been damned in between
the ice powders by their fall of fifty
feet or more. When they reached the
surface again they We're In a fainting
condition. and it was many days be-

the time spent in that icy tomb.
