MRS. CHADWICK SENTENCED.
Famous Confidence Operator Gets Ten
Years in Prison.

Cleveland, Ohio, March 2S.-Unless
the higher court interferes, Mrs. Cas-
sic l.. Chadwick will spend the greater
part of the next ten years in the Ohio
State Penitentiary. A sentence of ten
years was imposed upon her by Judge
Robert w. Taylor in the United States
District Court yesterday. Mrs. Chad
wick was convicted on seyen counts
and sentenced upon six counts. For
four of these counts sentence of two
years each was imposed. Upon two
counts sentence of one year each
was imposed, making total sentence
of ten years.
AS soon as the sentence was pro-
nounced Attorney Dawley, counsel for
Mrs. Chadwick, took exceptions to the
sentences upon each count except the
first. The defense intends to make the
claim that the court cannot impose a
separate sentence for each count; that
the law applied to the general charge,
instead of each incident Of general
charge. The various counts of the in
dictments are considered by the de-
fense to refer only to details of the
general offense. This point will also
be contested In the higher court. as
will the other points of the Chadwick
trial which resulted in her convictions.

Lumbermen's Diet.

The United States Department Of
Agriculture has added to its memoirs
on food and diet a report by Messrs.
Woods and Mansfield on the diet of
the Maine lumberman. The men per
form hard manual labor, and are much
exposed to cold, wet and hardship. and
the staple daily fare consists of pork,
or beef, sour dough biscuits, made of
dough which undergoes fermentation
with wild" yeast; tea and molasses,
and beans, which are first parboiled in
the forenoon and are then packed with
alternate layers of salt pork in pot
which is covered with hot ashes and
earth and allowed to cook over night
1t is considered that the dietary, as re-
CARDS proteine and energy, is the high
est yet recorded for any American la
boring man, and is well digested and
costs about 23.5 cents for each person
a day.

RULES FOR TREE PRUNING.
Examine the trunk from the
ground up for:
Bare spots where the wood is ex-
posed
Cracks in the bark extending to
the wood.
3-Places where the bark is dead
and not in contact with the wood.
stubs of old branches and places
not covered by living bark, where
branches have been removed.
II-Paint as directed below all bare
spots carefully:
In the case of cracks, see that the
bark has not shrunk away from the
wood. If it has, cut it away as far
back as dead, and carefully paint the
wood.
2-Remove all the dead bark, paint
the wood and if il is racked, fill the
cracks with thick lead paint.

ably. When the tree is planted in
grove on the back end of the farm
where it belongs all these objections
disappear almost entirely and the tree
goes on unmolested producing every
year the most durable wood grown in
thi> latitude.
On the college farm in 1896 a few
locust were planted in the open places
among hard wood timber, and now
after eight years growth the largest
of these trees are five inches in diane
ter at the ground and no evidences of
borers have been discovered. There
are no troublesome sprouts except
from one that was cut off and some
vigorous sprouts to take the place of
the one cut off have sprung up.
Near Burnip's Corners in Allegan
county two locust were cut after hav-
ing grown on a gravelly roadside for
20 years and from these two trees -
fence posts were made or a little more
than post per tree per year. On the
opposite side of the road 10 young
trees, all Of them large enough for
one or more cuts of posts, are growing
within a distance of eight fence cor
ners. In that county a company has
just been formed for the purpose of
growing timber trees. Forty acres of
land have been purchased and for
start the company proposes TO plant
one acre of locust this spring, buying
the stock from nursery man at S2.75
per thousand for trees 12-l8 inches
high,
In fngham county a farmer has
purchased cedar posts and thrown
them a the foot of d locust tree,
which if cut and worked into posts
would make better posts than the

The tree grows rapidly, is adapted
to Il great variety of soils and can be

THE OAK.
f. II. Harvey.

This mighty oak
BY whose immovable stem stand and seem
Almost annihated-not prince.
In all that proud old world beyond the deep,
Fer wore his crown as loftily as he
Wears the green coronal OF leaves with which
Thy hand has graced him."
The ancient home of the oak tree
was in the latitude of Greenland, dat
ing back to a period when the polar
cline was warm and vernal as our
temperate zone. As the glacial age
drew on, that ''cold white north be-
came the grave of luXuriant forest
growth. This climatic revolution an
tedates the advent of historic man.
Geology alone tells the story OF the
primeval woodlands that once over
spread the present arctic world.
After the lapse of uncounted ages,
this veteran tree comes within the rad
ius of human history, tlourishing i'll
great forests upon the continent Of
Europe To the early world, these
shadowy realms were sacred The
oaken grove was trysting place for
pagan devotees,- "a temple for the
gods. Within these sylvan shrines,
the Druid, and the priests of
mighty Zeus, performed their cere-
monials. The shadows of the oak in
spired awe and ministered to the
rites of heathen faith. What serious
fantasies and dreams were wrought
from the murmur of that solemn fol-
iage. No earthly fame has witnessed
stranger feats of worship than these
mystic groves of god-invested oaks.
This burly giant of the ancient wood
was on his native heath in the Tcuton-
land and England of our Saxon race.
He was a forest brother of the Alfreds
and Charlemagnes - the Cromwells
and Luthers of later day. AS Il
sovereign tree, it possessed a striking
individuality, and achieved its mission
as an Od6 unswayed by all the world
about it. In form and fibre, it was
the type of stalwart race of men.
Hawkins and Drake were like the
oak that was built into their ships; and
English seamen, since Elizabeth 5
age. have been of the oalIen build.
Hearts of oak in ships and men,
have given England her long time en-
pire of the seas.
But this cosmopolitan tree, every
where, and always present in the
world, has found his most congenial
home in central North America. What
noble woodlands, of this description
once beautified and enriched our con-
tinent; and, Notwithstanding all the
havoc, what purpose have they
served. They ministered TO the wealth
of a wilderness soil, and sheltered
the wild life of centuries. They tenn
pered our climate, and adorned our
landscapes with unrivalled splendor.
