PASSING Of Historic Enolish Oaks.

London Daily Chronicle: Our his
toric oaks are, with every great storm,
diminishing In number. Dumorey's
oak, in Do~rsetshire, 1000 years old,
disappeared from this cause in 1903.
Wallace's oak, at Ellerslie, was 700
years old when it was blown down
some fifty years ago. We have still.
however, the C~owthorpe oak, near
Wetherby, in Yorkshire, estimated to
be over 1000 years old. and William
Park, has attained the ripe age of 1900
years. Perhaps the finest oaks Of great
antiquity in the land are to be found
in the dukeries. About half a mile from
Welbeck abbey is Greendale oak, cred
tied with 1900 summers, and now a
mere ruin sustained by props. Through
its hollow interior a coach and four has
been driven.

Chicago Record Herald. With the
passing OF the "wneei craze however.
there came u more rational use of the
wheel both as d utilitarian vehicle and
as a means or enjoying healthful
door exercise. Thousands OF artisans,
laboring men and professional mon In
every city and town I'm the country
have been using the wheel In a rational
way ever since society and the fad
dIsts east II aside. To thousands OF
carpenters. painters. mechanics, teach
ers and business men it has become a
necessity. Men who have to get over
the ground quickly, from house to
workshop orsplace OF employment have
found 1t Invaluable. They no longer
regard IL as a mere pleasure vehicle"
But while the bicycle has become
fixed in our industrial life as q pernan-
ent necessity, it has been gradually
coming into It's own" as the best
mechanism ever devised by human In
genuity for obtaining the kind OF OUT
door exercise which most men and
women need. BY common acknuwl-
edgment Of the medical profession
nothing is comparable TO bicycle riding
In the country ais q means of replen-
ishing depleted physical and mental
energies. The motion OF the legs in
riding a wheel, pumps the blood vigor-
ously through the body, stimulating a
sluggish circulation, while the oxygen
that IL taken in through rapid ~respira-
ton increases the red corpugcles OF the
blood, Inducing a mental exhiiaration
and nerve tonicity that are scarcely
to be attained In amy other form az
lexercise.
indications that the summer will
witness a great revival OF Wheeling are
everywhere apparent, Shops are busy
getting the old wheels ~ repair, and
new one are being supplied In great
quantities at moderate prices, And the
gratifying feature OF the revival IL the
evident disposition Of the people 10 use
the wheel nationally and properly as a
means of strengthening the body in
stead OF destroying it.

RANDOLPH ASKED AID.
Wanted State House Officers to
Paw Election Expenses.

A letter has been received by the
state house officers from r. ID. Gay,
chairman of the county executive
committee of Randolph county, asking
each to contribute SO to pay expenses
of holding the state primary In that
county.
The letter states that no aid was
received from the state executive com
mittee to assist in the matter.
The county primary was held in
Randolph county on March Is, and the
recent primary was solely for state
house officers.
At the regular meeting OF the state
, executive committee, neld 10 Febru-
airy, it was agreed that all state house
officers should contribute $50 each to
ward paying election expenses, and no
more. Several of the counties have
asked for pecuniary assistance.
Just why the democratic committees
of the counties should be expected tC
bear the expenses OF the state primary
is not clear, especially so when each
candidate has paid to the state com
mittee $50 for election expenses.

The preacher was taken a little
aback, but was pleased with the man 8
honesty and directness. He promised
to do what be could to help Smell In
his search. Incidentally be mentioned
the matter in his sermon the following
Sunday
The case was unique. Here was a
wealthy, honest, educated gentleman
searching for wife. Having lived on
the plains for years he had forgotten
the WAYS of society, and was acquaint-
ed with less than half dozen women.
In his predicament he had journeyed
to Omaha and applied to a clergyman
man to help him obtain life compan-
ion.
Twenty-four hours after that sermon
was preached every large newspaper
in the country had printed the fact
that James Smell of Nebraska war ted
wife and was wealthy.
Another twenty-four hours and Rev.
Mr.. Savidge's mail was piling up. The
nearby cities and towns were being
| heard from. -,
Forty-eight hours passed and 100
per cent increase was shown. In an
other day it became necessary for Mr..
Savidge to get 40 assistant to answer
lie tiers. Soon the job became so great
that it was found impossible to answer
letters of application for the position
of "Mrs. Jas. SMELL" At the end of a
week nearly ], 200 letters were recelv-
ed. They are still arriving at the rate
of 100 a day The first weeks mail,
when classified, gave the following

James Smell, Nebraska ranchman'
wealthy upright. moral, wants wife,
He did not know W here to begin his
search until last month, but now he
can take his pick and choice of more
than a thousand who have heard OF
Mr.. Smells predicament and who have
volunteered to share his home and his
ranch, his bank account and his herds
Of cattle. And this number Is In
creasing hourly. Great stacks OF let
ters are pouring in upon Mr.. Smell
through the Rev. Charles SaVldge or
Omaha, who is assisting the dlconso-
late man.
Itwas through Mr.. Savidge that Mr..
Smell made his wants known to the
world. and although the desire was
made public only three weeks ago
the news spread from California to
Maine, from the Rio Grande to Lake
Superior, and an army OF spinsters,
divorces, widows aud young girls
blondes and Notwithstanding
themselves as "fair, fat and forty
"young and pretty" "vivacious and

bred" is preparing to march on the
stronghold OF Mr.. SHELLS heart and his
Nebraska ranch.
Mr.. Savidge, who takes pride in his
record of joining mankind and woman
kind, performed the ceremony for the
eleventh hundredth time. This fact
was widely published. Three days
later Mr.. Savidge received a call from
stranger.
The stranger introduced himself as
James Smell, ranch owner and cattle
raiser. Without minciug words after
being seated in MIR. Savidge's study
the visitor began:
