An adjustable gunstock has recently
appeared, the object OF which Is to
permit the raising and lowering of the
same to any desired angle or position
and to effect the operation quickly.
The joint is made Immediately back OF
the lock chamber, the end OF which IS
made rounded or semi-circular in form
with toothed or serrated edges on the
sides. The outer or smaller end of the
stock is made with recess designed
to receive the end of the locking cham
Der and also supplied with teeth, which
are for the purpose Of holding the
two surfaces rigidly together. The
two parts are held together by a bolt
to3ped off with a thumhscrew, and
when it is desired to make any change
in the shape Of the gnnstock it is
merely necessary to unloosen this
screw and the parts may be placed III
any desired position.
This is q feature which will be ap-
preciated by spOrtsmen, for there are
not few Of such shape and size that
they would like to make some change
in the shape or angle of the gunstock
used by them. Heretofore this mas
been only possible by having stock
made to order. which is rather expens'

tree has been treated as not belonging
to any one; and if a tree could acquire
Il title to supporting earth by pre-
scription, this tree would have long
since become the owner Of the little
piece of surrounding ground that is
not claimed by any one else. If such
a paper is in existence, of course rs
conveyance it would have no legal c.
feet but as q declaration Of intention
on the part Of Mr. Jackson that title
to the land around this tree should not
pass to his heirs, and the land around
the tree being given to itself, as II
were, and in that way to the pubic,
the paper might be circumstance in
dicating an intention to dedicate the
land to public uses, the land embraced
in the deed being adjacent to a public
street: and the heirs having acquiesced
in this. the dedication may now be
complete. IF the title to the land IS
not now in the heirs Of Mr.. Jackson it
may be vested in the public under the
theory above referred to-"
It is obvious that the simple method
of deciding the land directly to the peo-
pie is safer and more practical than
the above plan. However. the peculiar
conditions have endeared the tree to
the hearts of the people, and I believe
the Tree that Owns Itself" is per-
fectly safe.-L. B. E., in Country Life

He who would regulate the saloon should

Thunder storms purify the air, but a

The further down you can drive the

temptation from those who work in high
places.
In Bethel, under Prohibition, 1T was a
rare thing to hear OF a person being drunk.
Under the present law the town voted to
license two saloons. In the month Of May
there were eighteen convictions for drunk
cnness.
The Jewish law was especially severe
upon wine bbbers and drunkards, who
were held I'D TO scorn, and the people were
warned against them.
Drinking is disease, and it is in

the city pay. The man has cost New
York City millions Of dollars. Accord
ing to the latest principle Of public
benefaction, however, this makes him
all the more a phiinnthropist, for such
men rs Rockefeller and Carnegie have
been giving money only on condition
that the city or institution receiving
the gifts should raise as much more,
and Mr.. Carnegie told me once that he
was prouder Of what he had made the
cities do for themselves than of all
that he himself had given. So Riis,
who has made his city foot the whole
bill, is the greatest philanthropist OF
them all.
Riis is lusty Danish emigrant, with
a vigorous body, an undisciplined mind
that grasps facts as he himself sees
them, an Imagination to reconstruct.

spirit, to weep. whoop. laugh and de-
mand. AS a reporter he saw straight.
told about it in words hot with emo
ton, and, because bis feeling was gem
uine, he was not content with the
pleasant sensation Of horror he gave
his readers, neither could he be or
dered off on some other assignment; he
turned reformer, and while the man
continued to pity. the reporter contin-
ued to report, ana the reformer worked
through despair to set the wrong right.
AS q citizen. public business came first
in his interest. his own second.
The power to conceive evil in its
vicious torm failed Riis always. He
has a brilliant imagination. He has
gathered with the cleverest reporters
in New York the facts Of news story,
and. by grasping them with his SYM
pathy and Imagination. has so written
them that his paper appeared to have
q beat" His Imagination was that
of a child or a genius. If this hadn't
been so he never would have done his
great work-indeed, all come out Of
his imagination and feeling. Far
deeper than any intellectual faculty
lay his sympathy. His life, as you can
see in The Making Of an American"
has been one long stretch Of emotional
excitement. The world has played up
! on his sensiDilities as it does upon the
| soul of a musician, and since his feel
ings found no expression in art. they
went off, not as with most men Of his
temperament, in weird dissipations or
| lay sermons. but in action.
Now how did Riis win these victor
les? An effective reformer is so rare
that he should be accounted for; bold
exposition Of the methods by which
an obscure reporter wrought SO many
reforms might make useful some Of
the well-meaning meddlers who never
get anywh>re. I fear not, however.

adopted citizenship literally. and liter

the orderly Of King Alexander and
Captain Peschitch is nephew of Min
lister Todorovitch, who was wounded
on the night Of the assassinations.
1t is stated that more than 700 Off
GERS throughout the country are impli-
Gated, having signed petition to King
Peter in which they declared that they
were unable to serve in the army un-
der murterers. They also demanded
the punishment of the assassins and
stated that if their demands were not
complied with they would take the af-
fair into their own hands. Colonel Po-
povitch and other officers of King Pet

the petition.
King Peter and his principal Minis
ters are now at Nisch. 1t is stated that
NJ. Kaljevitch, the Minister of Foreign
Affairs, opposed the action Of the Gov
ernment in ordering the arrest Of the
officers, and will resign from the Cab

There is much excitement at Nisch
and Belgrade over the situation. and
the question of King Peters position
is being discussed very seriously. It
is not known what proportion OF the
Servian Army will support the officers
who have been arrested. :.
