There is a peculiar tree in the for
ests of Central India, hich has most
curious characteristics The leaves
of the tree are of highly sensitive
nature an are 80 full Of electricity
that whoever touches one Of them re-
ceives an electric shock. It will effect
a magnetic needle at distance Of
even 70 feet. Birds never approach
the tree. nor are insects ever seen up
on it, Its electrical strength varies
according to the time of day, it being
strongest at midday and weakest at
midnight. With the strength of bread
and meat in liquid form. and being
pure and delicious, are the qualities

Mr.. Robb Decides National

COMES. AS SURPRISE
AFFECTS LARGE AMOUNT OF OF
FIoIAL CORRESPONDENCE.
Claims Congress Appropriates for
Postage-Use Of War Department
Penalty Envelopes.

The third assistant postmaster general.
Mr. Madden, has just promulgated de-
c!sion Of Assistant Attorney General Ro5h
of the Post Office Department denying the
use OF the penalty envelope to the District
militia, including the National Guard and
naval militia, on the ground that Congress
appropriates money for the payment of
postage for both of these organizations
The decision of Mr.. Robb comes sur
prise to the officers of the District brigade.
who have recently felt secure in their right
to the Thanking privilege through the de-
cision of the judge advocate general Of the
army permitting the local milltiamen to use
the War Department frank.
II will be remembered that several
months ago Mr.. Robb rendered an opinion
in which he held that the District Of CO.
lumbia government was not entitled to the
use of the penalty envelope. The militia
headquarters was furnished with similar
envelopes to that of the District govern
ment. and the heading was Commissioners
of the D. c., office business"
BY the decision of Mr.. Robb the District
was deprived of the use of these envelopes.
The matter of postage is an important item
to the National Guard. because of the nu-
merCus letters sent back and forth between
the headquarters and the various organi-
zation commanders to say nothing of the
frequent cards and letters to enlisted men
from their company. battalion or regimental
commanders.
Almost all of the guardsmen receive noti-
fcatfon of drills, etc, from their company
commanders in penalty envelopes. Conse-
quently, when the District was deprived of
the use of the penalty envelope Gen. Har-
ries submitted the case to the War Depart
ment, and Judge Advocate General Davis
rendered an opinion in which he held that
the District militia was part of the military
force Of the United States, except that it is
enlisted for service in the District only, and
that as such it came properly under the
War Department and was therefore entf-
tied to the use of the departments frank
ing privilege.
The envelopes used by the militia officers
were therefore changed to a War Depart
ment heading and it was not until today
that the post office authorities notified the
national guard of the decision of Mr. Robb
The opinion was transmitted to Postmaster
Wiilett late yesterday afternoon by Mr..
Madden, the third assistant postmaster
general. and the orders have been issued to
require the payment of postage on all militia
communications.

MIR. ALDRICH HAD TO LEAVE.
Why Republicans Were Not Informed
as to Agreement.

The Lack of an understanding as to the
agreement between republican leaders and
the democrats, which was shown in the
executive session yesterday afternoon, was
brought about by causes that were not at
the time fully understood. Democrats had
come to an understanding with Senator
AIdrich. as the leader of the republicans,
under which there,twas to be no business
conducted by the Senate other than q con-
sideration of the Cuban bill, except of the
most formal routine character.
Senator Aldrich last Thursday received
a telegram announcing that his son, Nelson
w. Aldrich, Was seriously i'll at Harvard
College.
That was just about the time that SEN
ator Aldrich had completed his understand
ing with the democratic leaders in relation
to the manner in which debate would be
conducted during the regular session.
Subsequent news from Senator Aldrich's
son was of an alarming nature, and he at
once left to go to his bedside. His depar-
ture was SO sudden that there was not suf-
fcient time to thoroughly confer with re-
publican leaders, and in that way 1t hap
rened that when the subject came UP in
executive session yesterday republicans
were not informed as to the understanding
that had been had with the democrats.
