cause. and to warrant the return of the

MONARCH OF FOREST.
Biggest Tree in the World Discov-
cred by a Woman.
Under Ets Lowest Limb, Which Itself
Il tho Size Of q Mighty Oak, q
Twenty-Story Skyscraper
Might Easily SkanA.

The biggest tree in the world has
just been found by woman.
The tree has been named Methusa
lem, though its age is probably much
greater than was that of the oldest
man of history. Its discoverer is
Mrs. Matte Duncan, a modern Diana
of the wonderful California forests.
Methusalem is q sequoia, or big
tree" about 4S0 feet high, 1928 feet )
inches in circumference a foot from
the ground and 80 feet inches at
seven feet from the ground. At one
place it is nearly so feet in diameter.
The largest tree known heretofore
is 10s feet in circumference one foot
from the ground and 90 feet around
at six feet from the ground. The
monster was discovered last August
near the Gen. Grant national park,
and was measured by John Muir, the
noted naturalist. 1t was then corr
sidered world marvel, and even Cal
ifornians doubted if it could be
beaten.
But Mrs. Duncan's find, made 200
miles further south, far exceeds any
other. It is beautiful tree, 240 feet
to the first limb, finely proportioned,
straight and clean-barked from top
to bottom.
Under its lowest limb, which itself
is the size of the largest eastern oak,
q 20-story skyscraper might stand.
Stood beside the Great Pyramid, the
tree would wave 30 feet above its
top.
The discovery of Methusalem was
a remarkable incident, especially as
it was made by pretty little wom-
an, whose courage and marksman-

tory in 1OO4-Others Think New
York Jurist's Chances Arc
Very PrecaFiOus.

Judge Alton B. Parker still holds a
prominent place as democratic pres
idential possibility. From east, south
and west come demands that he be
the candidate of his party.
Many thought that because he was
not made the candidate for governor
by Hill last fall he would drop out
of sight. But just the opposite re-
suit has happened, says the New York
Herald. Democrats all over the coun-
try have apparently made up their
minds that Judge Parker is the leader
for a winning democratic, campaign.
They think he can unite all elements
of the party. They believe he can carry
New York, Connecticut, New Jersey
and Indiana.
Democratic leaders all over the coun-
try are saying that had Judge Parker
been the candidate last fall he would
have been elected governor. They call
attention to the fact that Judge Par
ker is the only democrat since 1892
who has carried New York state in
straight-out contest between tbo two
great parties. He was elected chief
justice of the court of appeals in 1897
over Judge Wallace, republican. While
it is true that the Tracy-Low fight
in New York city contributed to Judge
Parker's success, it is believed that he
would prove a strong candidate un-
der any circumstances.
Democratic members of congress
were hopeful last fall that Judge Par
ker would be nominated for governor.
A campaign in his behalf was carried
on quietly all over the country. In
the south and west, particularly, steps
were taken to acquaint the democrats
with Judge Parker's qualities as
candidate.

HIRED SPECIAL TRAIN,
Senator Fairbanks Was Bound to 10
ON Time at an Indiana Pc.
litical Meeting.

Senator Fairbanks loves to make .
political speech, and is also very pune
tilious in keeping all the appointments
he makes. During the last campaign
he was scheduled to speak at Prince
ton, Ind. The itinerary had been sup
piled by the state committee, and the
hour of the speech fixed for $3.50 p.
m. The senator was in Indianapolis,
grip-sack in hand, determined to be on
the ground at the appointed hour. When
the train reached Terre Haute, where
he was to connect with the Chicago &
Eastern Illinois railroad, he found
that the connecting train had depart

ed just ten minutes previously. There
came before his vision at that mo-
ment the picture of q disappointed au-
dience and the first break in long
record for punctuality in filling polit-
ical engagements. Hurrying away to
the roundhouse the senator inquired
the cost of a special train to carry
him from Terre Haute to Princeton.
He was told that 500 would foot the
bill, and he paid over the amount and
crawled into the cab with the engineer
and fireman. The throttle was
thrown open, and away the engine
speeded for Princeton. At Vincennes
it overlook and passed the regular
train with which the senator had
hoped to connect. 1t was shortly
after two o'clock when the senator
reached Princeton and triumphantly
alighted. There was no visible sign
of an immediate political demonstra-
ton. The chairman of the commit
tee met him at the train, and leisurely
escorted him up town. The senator
observed that he was ION time"
Earlier than I expected" replied
the chairman. "Will you 60 to your
hotel now to remain until the meet
ing?"
"When is the meeting?" inquired the
senator.
"Why, did you not know; seven
o'clock tonight. l supposed the COM
mittee had advised you that the hour
had been changed from afternoon un-
til night" ~
But the committee had not, and
therefore the senator had made an un-
necessary expenditure of 500 for q
special engine for the trip.

GEN. NORD ELECTED.
New President of Hayti 10 SIS Years
of Age, But a. Watchful a.
Young Kid.

No independent country in the world
has had more revolutions than the lit
tie negro republic of Hayti, which, in
this respect, excels even it's neighbor,
San Domingo, or Venezuela, the polit-
ical rough horse of South America. A
presidential election was recently held
in Hayti. No one can tell with any de-
gree of accuracy which of the candi.
dates was really elected, but Gen. Nord
is recognized as de facto president,
because he has just been allowed to
take the presidential oath of Office.
Gen. Nord has been a prominent figure
in the maelstrom of Haytian politics
for several years. He comes from the
