The Burnt Big Tree.

Professor Dudley, of the Leland
Stanford Junior University, in his
researches in the matter Of the Sc
quota gigantea of California and his
letter about these researches to our
Senator Platt, has certainly opened
up a vista. He reports that one OF
those great trees disclosed the age,
when cut down in 1900, of 2,l7lyears.
That means that it was 27l years old
when the Christian era began. For
SIG years this tree grew in peace and
without harm from anything. Then
a bad thing happened to it. 1t re-
ceived a burn three feet vide. For
tunately for us. however, it preserved
a record of this injury, and Professor
Dudley found and read this record
after the tree had been hewn down.
This injury to the tree happened in
the year Of our Lord 245.
If this tree could only tell what it
was that brought the blast Of fire upon
it away back in the days when old
Rome was still in its prime Was the
burn made by touch Of lightning or
by the hand of man? If by man. by
what manner of man-how dressed,
how living, how thinking, how pro-
ducing fire. 1t is all a shut-of story
so shut off that one can make no
conjecture about it. But the tree and
the burn and the wood of centuries
growing over the burn are real enough
and eloquent enough in their inartic-
ulate and unrevealing way. They
show that the sunshine and the rain
served the tree in those years Of the
world as they do the trees in this year
Of the world. Other older trees Of
the same kind have been found, and
these older ones show that this burnt
tree had its ancestry-that it was
simply growing after its kind, and
that its kind was there.
But as to what bird or beast or sort
of man served as its compartments to
how it made itself useful-we do not
know. The vista Of probable knowl-
edge is clearly opened by this burnt
tree-it was burned three times more
at the intervals Of 1876, l39 and oil
years, respectively-but no one can
look through the vista and see what
was doing in those remote days.

"What are you getting ?"
"T'ree dollars week.
