THE OLDEST LIVING THING.
Said to Be a Huge Cypress Tree 6,26'
Years Old.

ST. Louis Glcbe-pemccrat: The state
ment recently made that there are yew>
in England which are The oldest living
things on earth.' Mr.. Thomas Z. Ireland
said, lis not correct.
These yews are old. very old; there Is
no doubt about that, some of them were
s;alwart trees even before Caesar landed
on these shores. There is one now stand
ing in the c%hurchyard at Fortinsnl, in
Perihshire, which p,caidole, nearly a
century ago, proved TO the satisfaction Of
bo,anis;s to he over twenty-five centuries
old, and another at Heusor. in Suclas,
which is $40 years old. How Dcrahdoie
arrived at an apparently correct ostlnate
of the enormous age of these living trees
is "A simple thing, and the principle Is
doubtless known today to all. The yew,
like most trees, adds one line about the
tenth on AN inch. TO its circumference each
year. He proved this after an investiSa-
ton extending over several years, and we
know now "a hundred years later, that his
deductions were correct. The old ycw at

This tree has a trunk twenty-ninc feet II
