We'll, I've got splendid plan to propose
that'll just fit in nicely. You know there's a
house up somewhere near Eghty-ffth street
wide; SO / move we ride up there in the
cars, take look at it, and then we can
start fresh for our walk down along the East
River"
But the idea of Trappers Club riding
in the cars! laughed Hal
well, it isn't any more absurd than for
the Turf Club not to hold its meetings in the
back yard on the grass, the Lotus not to
make its members sail off every week for that
island Tennyson wrote some afternoon poetry
about, returned Ed, as he hailed a car, and
handed the conductor twenty cents.
1t was nearly four when they reached the

was already beginning to show signs of its
coming departure, only very brief halt was
made in front of it.

And the tramp proper began.
The boys had not proceeded very far, how
ever, before an organ grinder, with a monkey,
attracted their attention. 1t was irresistibly
fascinating to watch the relocated little ami

But at that instant the quick changing of a
gong was heard, and Ed himself was the first
to break into run after the fire engine
that had turned into the street Just ahead
of them
But boys legs, swift propellers though they
be, are no match for the departments horses,
and, as the first appeared to be still some
distance off, our friends gave up the chase at
the end of about dozen blocks

with his handkerchief. "But where are we,
anyway Ed?

ply. $50 now we must strike straight across
for the river, or we'n have to go home with

| A few minutes later the boys found them
selves at the foot of quite steep hill on the
edge OF the water, with the grim looking
stone buildings on BlackwelPs Island just op-
posite.
The sun had already set, and hurriedly in

could regain the top of the bluff by follow

the way through the sheds of brick yard,
now "spooky" in the gathering darkness.
"Now we go up those steps," said Hal, as
they emerged into what daylight there was

York had such precipies in it."

as they began the ascent.
Hal was in front with Ed, and they had
almost reached the top of the bluff, when o

Their leader and Hal recognized one an.
other at almost the same instant, and the
former at once turned to his friends with
the cry:
We've caught em now, fellows"
he then proceeded to form barricade out
OF himself and companions.
You can't get up herei" he called out,
mockingly. "Ye might want to tease our cats
out OF revenge yer know!"
Hal paid attention to his speech, but
kept on until he came plump against the
speaker.
Then, as the latter, backed as he was by
his comrades, completely blocked further prog
ress, he said, quietly:
don't they?"
81 s'pose so" was the sullen response. "But
you chaps needn't think we's forgot ye We
haven't, and we'll show ye that ye can't fool
with u.s."
And Bill, as he was called, accompanied his
last words with push.
Don't say anything mean back" whispered
Hal.
And our friends shut their teeth tight TO-
gether to keep their anger down.
Four, five six steps they were obliged to
give up to the enemy, and then one Of the
latter cried out:

they're anxious for it, you know"
"of course responded Bill; then, raising
his voice: ANY communication addressed
to William Manly, Esquire, No. 312,, will
be acknowledged by me and my pals, and
we'll be ready for ye. Now, fellows, let's

But, at this instant one of the "pals" whis-

becoming stronger ceased entirely.
The cat chasers had themselves retreated
to the top of the steps, and brushed by the
officer, who now began to descend.

sasAAAS turned the older of the two Car
Teton boys, as he came over to the
Arnolds' stoop.
"Why, Walt and have been talking about
starting Trampers' Exploring Club of the
City of New York." replied Ed. Don't let
the name scare you. It's big one, l know;
but then it tells pretty much what we mean
without our having the trouble of doing much
explaining. You see"
"Hold on a minute" interrupted Hal
There is Rob across the way; I'll call him
over, SO you'needn't tell all there is to be
told twice"
Rob, who was twelve, lost no time in re-
spending to an invitation to join in the coun-
ellis of his seniors, and then Ed went on:

sey ferries and the Brooklyn Bridge. And

But at this point Ed was interrupted by
another sort of movement.
Five boys, with sticks and stones in their
hands and malicious delight in their eyes, had
come tearing across the street and halfway
up the stoop, in pursuit Of poor, thin,
dirty-white cat, that had sought refuge in the
Arnolds' vestibule.

The cat-chasers fell back for an instant on
hearing this, and appeared to be utterly as

boy.
"Is it your cat?" then inquired the most
respectable-looking member Of the party, as
if this could be the only possible means Of
accounting for the wonder.

was the quick reply; "but do know that the

SUCCESSFUL FORESTRY.

One of the most successful examples
Of practical forestry to be found in the
United States in the estimation of the
department of forestry is that belong
ing to l.. w. Yaggy of Chicago and To-
Gated five miles northwest of Hutchin-
son, in southwest Kansas, between the
Arkansas river and Cow creek. The
tract in question possesses rich,
lOamy and porous soil, both soil and
subsoil receiving remarkable subir-
rigation from the streams mentioned.
More than million catalpa trees, now
twelve years old, stand on this reserve,
and such thrifty and remarkable
growth have they made that the own
er was led to plant 10000 fruit trees,
which are just coming into bearing.
1t Is claimed that this is the most val
liable 500 acre tract In the state to-
day, paying greater return on the
investment than had it been devoted
to any other agricultural purpose.
