Money Lender, Victim of Gambler, Preferred Soda Cracker

A gambler borrowed a sum of money from a money lender. and, the note falling due. he called upon the broker and told him he could not pay at that time, relates the Argonaut. The money lender became greatly eX- cited. q want the money. It is due. You must pay it." The gambler pulled his pistol out, pointed it at the head of the money lender and said: Eat that note or will blow the top of your head off."
 The money lender looked at the pis- tol, then at the note and decided that it would be- wise to eat the note, which he did. A few days after the gambler called and paid the value of the note. much to the delight of the money leader, who said: My friend, you are good man, and when you need any more money come in and l will let you have it."
 Some time later the gambler ap- piled for another loan, which the money lender was very willing to ad. sance. The gambler sat down to write out a note, when the. money lender called out: Wait a minute, my friend. Would you mind writing out that note on a soda cracker!-

ways on the grounds have been made
to conform to a great extent to the
location of the trees in order that an

with Japanese honeysuckle blooming
all summer. with trumpet vines with

NORFOLK. VA, May 8.-Artistic
landscape engineering and gardening
i ranidlv transforming what was but
ronoh scope of woodland into para
4ise of beauty. Art has been brought
IL the aid of nature in accomplishing
the great landscape work of the
Jamestown Exposition. Natural for
osts are utilized where available and
massive trees are being transplanted
to carry out the plan of the work and
comfort to the general arrangement
of streets, buildings, and other ex-
position Improvements.
More than million plants, shrubs
and trees are already in place on the
grounds, covering many varietie
from the budding plants just opening
into life to giant liveoak, whose age
is estimated at nearly a thousand
Years. This veteran oak, the king of
the transformed forest, was a large
tree when America was discovered,
and its spreading branches will
afford shade and shelter to thousands
of exposition visitors.
The arranging of the grounds ne
cesSitated the draining of more than
thousand acres of land in order to
guard against any possibility of
malaria. Streams had to be bridged
and great trees had to be transplant
ed, and in many instances had to be
carried on RATS across tide water for
many miles. An old apple orchard
which occupied part of the ground
needed by the exposition had to be re-
moved. Instead of being destroyed it
was dug up and the trees transplanted
around thirty-fve acre drill ground
to provide shade and add beauty to
the surroundings.
The exposition avenues are to be
rendered attractive by five rows OF
trees, two of apple, two of red maple
and one of pin oak. All open spaces
are to be covered with trees, shrubs
and flowers; and flowers and shrubs
will be planted along the walks. The
creamy white magnolias and lilies, the
bright goldenrods, roses and other
lowering plants and trees will min
gle their cOlOrs with the various
shades of green furnished by the ivy,
the maple, the oaks, the pin and the
bay trees.
Ferns in endless variety are to be
seen along the beds of flowers, and
luxurant palms will play an import
ant part in beautifying the landscape.
towering high above the roses, lilies,
Ilacs, jasmine, magnolias and null
tltudes of other shrubs and trees

courses.
