A LITTLE COLONY
OF FAMOUS TREES
Cedars Of Lebanon Grown the Arnold Aboreum from Seed
Obtained in Asia Minor-A Difficult Undertaking Success
fully Begun in the Light of Years Of Interesting Expert
mentation.
mentatlon.

Boston, Mass, July A thousand
little cedars of Lebanon growing up
from seed brought from Asia Minor
is one of the interesting sights just
now in one corner of the frames of
the Arnold Arboretum at Jamaica
Plain. Not that they appear at pres
ent much like their historic prede-
cessors. In fact to the uninitiated all
cedars look alike during their first
year. Some of them are in little boxes,
so that they can be put out into the
sunshine or kept in the sheltering con-
servatories as may seem best, while
others stand rank by rank in the open
air bed. But what makes them par
ticularly fascinating is their literary
interest and the fact that they seem
to be in a fair way to grow and flour
ish. Just now, in spite of the inclem-
ency of this spring weather, they are
flourishing like the traditional green
bay tree and if they continue to do
so, the Arboretum will have intro
duced into out northern ATTITUDES for
the first time one of the most striking
and decorative landscape trees that
grows.
VIII the Arnold Arboretum succeed
in growing these Lebanon trees? 1t
is not the first attempt that has been
made in this climate, but it is the
first to give any sign of being success
full. Previous Attempts have failed be-

Horticulture which have been developed
during years of curious experimental

versity and performing work of world
wide reputation.
To understand what hopes the Ar
boretum people have of successfully
propagating this difficult species you
need only remember what has been
done in the way of extending the range
of some of the Western soft wood trees.
For instance, when a Scotchman named
Douglas discovered the splendid frs
on our Pacific coast that have been
given his name he took the seed back
home with him and cultivated IL there.
In that equable climate it did well but
the hrst Douglas frs planted in the
eastern u nlIeu States were from SeeQ

than a few years. standing to be
killed by the first severe winter that
came along. Much the same expert
ence the silver fir of California and
the Engleman spruce from the forests
of oregon suffered when transplanted;
the climate of Old England was so
much more even than that of New Eng
land that while they would grow abroad
they died here. But presently some
body brought to the Arboretum seeds
of the frs and spruces from the noun
tains of Colorado. The trees there
were to all appearances exactly like
those on the shores of the Pacific, but
apparently they had been acclimated.

not "risking all its eggs in one basket"
and until the youngsters in the open
air give unmistakable evidence OF
fiourishing permanently those under
glass will not be exposed.
There are, in the Far East, cedars
of Lebanon which are thought to have
been standing when Solomon's temple
was in its glory, 5000 years ago-some
even older; and perhaps the seed now
being so carefully nurtured in the Ar
boretum fell from the wide-spreading
branches of some giant that raised its
head when St. John sent his message
to the church in Smyrna less than a
century after the Christian era began.

The Sherman was Immediately or

Mariveles, as no ship on which the

allowed to dock at Manila until they

Sherman steamed back to Mariveles.
When she arrived there her matches
had been opened up and enough sui

Mr.. Cleveland always wears old

never looks as if he had ever been
more than fisherman. On this occa-
sion his attire was particularly UMPIRE

have paid no attention to him had it
not been for the big pile of fish in the

RAT STORY FROM MANILA.

Rodents.
From the New York Times.
When the United States military
transport Sherman arrived a, Manila
recently she was, as is the case of
most other ships that arrive from or
touch at Hong Kong on the way to
Manila, detained for inspection to see
if she had any rats on board When
the big transport dropped anchor in
Manila Bay therefore, the official rat
inspector went on board to see what
was doing in the way of rodents. II

seen in the Orient. First by the hum
dreds. and then by the thousands, they
appeared at the matches, and then
leaDed into the water. Every one
tried to swim ashore, but the distance
was far too great for any rat to swim,
and soon the great black line of pad
ding rodents began to thin out. Some
OF them reached a point about 300
yards off the skip, but none got any
further. After the fumes had been
working for about an hour the rats
stopped appearing An inspection OF
the ship was made and not a rat dis
covered. The Sherman then re-entered
Manila and discharged her cargo.

No President was ever so keenly
sought by newspaper men as was
Grover Cleveland just prior to his
marriage with Frances Folsom.
There were rumors a-plenty of the
impending union, but no definite in
formation, and every correspondent
was urged by his managing editor to
do his best to get the first positive
news. Late one afternoon it became
known generally that the President
and a party. mostly cabinet members
and their wives, was coming to New
York from Washington on a special
train. There was a rumor that Mr..
Cleveland was to meet Miss Folsom
here. One well-known correspondent
CHANGED to be in Newark. New Jer-
sey. and to him were wired instruc-
tions to board the Presidents special
when it passed Newark, at all haz-
ards.
Being acquainted about the station
he managed to get himself struggled
through the locked gates when the
train came in. When the train pulled
out he was passenger, but sorely puz'
zled to know how to act next. Good
luck came to his rescue again, how
ever, for he found in the party a lady
who knew him and presented him to
the President as a most enthusiastic
young Jersey Democrat.
Mr.. Cleveland was surprised at see
ing any stranger on the train, but took
the intrusion in good part, perforce,
saying as he greeted his new acquaint-
ance:
You ought to be a reporter, judg-
ing by the way you secure passage on
private train"
THIS enbotdened the correspondent
ttnfo - oI.s
his coming marriage, and Mr.. Cleve-
lands reception of the congratulation
made the union a certainty. Having
gained that much, the reporter got
gracefully out of the presence, and
then was informed with considerab BILE
detail that Mr.. Cleveland really was
