The ."Human Tree

Proker Selenitch, the hairy man of
Archangel," has at last been dug up.
A month ago Selenftch, for semi relig-
ious, semi-patriotfc reasons, planted
himself up to his knees In the earthen
floor of his hut, where he remained,
being worshipped by large numbers of
pilgrims as the human tree During
the great fast the human tree fed
sumptuously. being supplied with the
best OF everything by religious deyotees
from all parts of Northern Russia.
The observernoted that during Easter
week the human tree ate large GUAM
titles of butter, thus violating the reg
ulation of the church. The peasants
began to regard Selenitch as an inn
poster, and turned back all pilgrims
who came with offerings of food and
drink. For three days the hungry hui
man tree remained without food. On
the fourth he made desperate efforts to
free himself from the earth, but owing
to his great age the attempts proved
unavailing.
Last week the human tree was dug
out Of the hard earth in which he had
been planted for over month. It
was found that his legs from the knees
downward were in a terrible condition
and had lost all sense of feeling. He
was taken to a hospital and is not ex-
pected to recover.

ago Mr.. Shave returned to st. Paul
and opened little studio, and since
that time he has filed many important
concert engagements and has been
most successful as teacher. His pu-
pills recitals have most satisfactorily
demonstrated his success in the deyel-
opment Of voices, and his studio bears
a reputation for most thorough and
artistic work. When Richard Strauss
decided to give the "Enoch Arden

was invited to read the text, and he
demonstrated then that his dramatic
gift is quite as pronounced as his pure

King Edward has a value set upon his
life of s75o.000. that is s250,o00 more
than the policy for which he was insured
when Prince of Wales. Indeed, $4,000
for the heir to Britain and the dominions
beyond the seas seems to be stock value.
for the present Prince of Wales is insured
for that amount The Duke of Fife is also
similarly insured.
Just double the amount of the kings
policy-or Ell, 800 000-was paid out when
King Humbert was assassinated by the
anarchist Bresci in 1900. This Is the
heaviest life insurance on record. The
present king of Italy is insured for e700,-
900, which is 100000 less than the value
set upon himself by the car of Russia.
The most curious policy ever taken out
by a prince of royal blood is undoubtedly
that of Prince Henry Of Prussia. who has
insured himself for s1S0,00o solely in
the event Of his assassination.
His royal brother, the German emperor,
has also a high value set upon his life.
