TEN TONS OF STONE IN TREE.

Remarkable Piece of Work by Tree
 Doctor'' on Aged Red Oak in South
 Manchester.
 South Manchester May 6.-In an eff fort to save fine old red oak tree near the Cheney homestead in this place, an unusual and interesting process is in progress.
 The tree had massive cavity in 1t and was gradually decaying in spite of the efforts made to save3i it. Some years ago it received a treatment from for ester. He treated the tree and filled the hole, but it has since continued to de- cay. MT. snults, the tree doctor" who X is doing extensive forestry work, has now undertaken to save the tree.
 x Six two horse carloads of dead mat ter removed from the interior of the trunk, mostly stones, sand and diseased parts of the tree. Four Workmen have since been employed for about three weeks carefully cutting. out the routed parts. The men had a cavity in one of the parts, it being a double tree, ex- tending about twenty feet up the trunk. Almost all of the center of the tree has been removed and leaves but a shell at X the bottom which is about five inches thick. Three men can stand side by side inside the tree and three men setanding on each others shoulders can stand up in the tree.
 tsTREE DOCTORS,n AT WORK,
 Before filling the cavity 1t received a treatment of antiseptic solution The filling in is completed, and three two horse loads of fine crushed stone, one tWo-horss load of sand and three bar rels of cement were used. The weight of matter is as follows: Crushed stone, 11,717 pounds; sand, seven tone; Port land cement, two tons.
 The second part of the tree was also diseased, and almost as badly as that | first described. 5x$ s 55 | The tree is necessarily weakened on account of the amount of matter that has been removed, and an anchor sunk a distance of five feet in the ground, to which will be attached ca bles to support the tree. 0
 | An estimate of the age of the tree fixes it at one hundred and fifty years It is surely one hundred and thirty three years old, because that number of rings has been counted. The tree is six feet through at the base. The cost oi the labor and material will reach hun. dreds of dollars for this double tree A cut has been made which shows the workmen at work in the largest cavity ! The picture was taken by the Times photographer. $S 5 ! @ N There is considerable interest in for. Festry work in Manchester and vicinity at this time in view of the great amount of work being done in that line this
 year by the Cheneys. Several months
 work is still ahead of the vorkmen who have already been engaged since last December. In the line of forestry work, many interesting things have been discovered. Some time ago tlt | Times had a special article on the find. ing of Chionaspis enonymus, which at.

than an ordinary park. 1t was really the home of scientific gentleman Of Geneva, man greatly respected by his leaving no children, he gave his beau tiful home as a legacy to tht city of Geneva for park. Fine old trees Of almost every variety, a running brook, fountain, on one side a high old mos sy stone wall covered with climbing rose bushes, an abundance of the rich est greensward, a fine old mansion con- verted into an art museum, the lake in front with its waters of cerulean blue, and a view of Mont Blanc in the dis tance. These are some of it's charms. Much of what is most interesting in Geneva has been gifts to the city by public spirited private citizens. Such the beautiful park and museum of 'Ariana,' the ..Rath Museum, Vic torian Hall," the park Mon Repos. :" and I believe also the pleasant park 'Des Faux Wives" once private resi- dence with extensive grounds.
 If the Hillhouse place at New Haven could only have been converted into 6uCll2 d JcIh as luOll gptpCcy dtlu llAS homestead into an art museum, what a boon to thousands yet unborn who would wander through it's paths, in years to come, and breathe in the beauties of forest, meadow and hillside, SC richly combined in that magnificent property.
 From Mon Repos" up the lake to Lausanne and then a little further on to the Castle of Chiffon, is a trip of only a few hours, and it wolud seem a pity | to be so near as Geneva to this mas sive gloomy relic of the past without crossing the bridge that connects 1t
 with the shore, and going through its l huge dungeons cut in the solid rock, it's spacious hall of judgment, it's rooms of inquisition and all it's strange old
 courts and corridors trod by knights l and ladies more than a thousand years
 ago.
 One is moved with a certain respect
 mense structures such as the Castle of Chiffon, the Minister of Basel, the Ca thedral of Geneva and that of Lau-
 same, for these are the only cathedrals
 I have seen of late. Both the last two
 are upon hills. and indeed the city of Lausanne seems to me to be built upon
 a group of hills, and to reach the old cathedral from the street below it is
 necessary to mount a flight of at least two or three hundred steps. am
 heartily tired of climbing hills. sup 3 pose the miscles required for this kind 3 of perambulation are highly developed l in the natives of Switzerland so that I 'tis more natural for them to walk ur d hill than to go upon a level road. i A 4E city set upon a hill' sounds poetic, but \ I prefer a "city of the plain" like New 5l Haven, for instance, but from which
 can lift mine eyes unto the hills. Tc
 me a most striking thing about these \ old cathedrals of Switzerland is to ses
 them used for Protestant service, and d filled every Sunday by a Protestant
 congregation and to find children play \ ing games in their echoing old cloisters
 But I suppose I have seen about the last of Switzerland that shall see fol
 some time to come, for II expect to starr \ for Paris in a few hours
