JOURNEY OF A TREE ROOT.
Eucalyptus Sends Shoots Up over .
Wall, to a Sewer.

From Santa Barbara, Cal, there
comes a story of most interesting
freak of vegetable life which Is strict
ly vouched for.
Through a certain garden there ran,
some years ago. a sewer made OF red
wSbd timber. This sewer was again
cased by an outside sewer. Across
the sewer there was built a brick wall
many feet high, and in such a way
that it was pierced by the inner
sewen which 1t Enclosed tightly, while
the outer sewer ended abruptly
against the wall.
The outside sewer casing had in
course OF time decayed and a eucalyp.
tus tree, Standing some 609feet away,
had taken advantage of this and sent
one Of its roots to the coveted spot
in as direct line as possible.
Here the root entered the outside
sewer and followed its course as far
as 1t could. At last 1t came to the
wall, which shut off its course. and
1t could go no farther, the inside sew
er being perfectly tight.
But on the other side of the wall
the sewer and its double casing con-
tinued, and this eucalyptus tree evil
IDENTIFY knew how to get there.
Some three feet high In THE brick
wall there was a little hole an inch
or two In diameter, and this the euca-
lyptus tree was aware Of, as its big
root began to climb the dry wall and
face the sun and wind until 1t found
the hole, Through which 1T descended
on the other side and entered tho
sewer again and followed 1t along as
formerly.
How did the tree know of the hole
in the wall? How did 1t know that
the sewer was on the other side?
How could 1t direct the root to go
and find the place with such preci-
sion? The roots of any plant grow
always and unerringly In the dtrec-
ton of it's food, Just as the eucalyptus
tree did.

the engineers, have designs on those
which are yet untouched by ties and
| tracks.
OF course, the presence Of the rail-
road does not interfere with those who
desire to climb to the top of noun
tain, but the experience Is robbed of
it's charm when one is compelled to
cross and recross railroad tracks con-
stantly and the trip Is robbed of the
element of danger, excitement and
thrill by the knowledge that the ANA
teur climber may stop and wait for
car when he has tired of the climb.
The latest engineering scheme of this
kind is that which is proposed to the
top of the Matterhorn. 1t was thought
because of its precipitous slopes and
jagged structure that this peak would
be free from rails for all time but two
engineers have made application to
build line to its top. The view from
the top Of this mountain Is so grand
that there Is a constant stream of Wis
itors during the season notwlthstand-
ing the difficulties and the cost Of the
climb.
The only opposition which has devel-
oped to the scheme is from the Alpln-
lists who reap quite harvest acting
as ambitious mountain climbers
guides for tourists, but this is hardly
Of sufficient Importance to prevail in
the face of the pressure which is be-
ing brought to bear by the projectors
The line will extend from Zermatt
to the top of the Matterhorn and the
company will erect all the necessary
buildings for the accommodation Of
guests at the summit. 1t will be oper-
ated electrically and will cost $1,000
600. Four years time will be re-
quired In Its construction. The trip
now requires at least twenty-four
hours and costs about $40 for guides
and other expenses. With the new
railroad in operation the time of the
trip will be reduced to two hours and
will cost $40.

lie had other tastes which were inhar-
mon.ous, and SO extravagant and eccen-

he tore it down to build wing to his

as the father of improved streets. He

Constructive Activity Ends.
With the death of Constantine, A. D.
337, the period of constructive activity
came to an end, and about that time
the Importation of beautiful foreign
marbles, much used in Interior decora-
ton, ceased. Rome was not finished,
but interest in building seems to have
terminated, although under Theodore
an attempt at revival in building was
made.
The Caesars were no more. the East
ern capital became the seat Of the en-
pire. wars had impoverished the coun-
try and the recognition of Christianity
as the state religion naturally caused
the pagan temples to fall into disuse.
From this time the ruin of the ancient
city may be dated. 1t is true. that upon
the authority of Procoplus we are told
that in the sixth century many of the
monuments were uninjured. In the
year 80S the erection Of the column Of
Phocas, which probably was composed
of fragment from some other struct-
ure, proves that some Of the old taste
for building still survived. So late as
the ninth century 1t Is known the
Forum-that Is. the Forum Of the Cm-
sars-was still unburled, yet in the

Clarke Luby and Charles Kickham Us
editors of the Irish People, the Fenian
organ Of the COS. This paper, which
boldly advocated physical force as the
only effective method of righting Ire
lands wrongs, then more numerous
than now, was suppressed in 1865 by
the government. O'Leary was arrest
ed, tried and convicted and was SEN
fenced to 20 years penal servitude.
Five of these years he spent in Jail. In
1870 he was released, but for Is years
was obliged to live in France, being
denied admittance to his own land.
After 20 years of exile he returned TO
the country of his birth and devotion
and spent the balance of his DAYS In
Dublin, surrounded by company of
young nationalist lltterateurs, some of
whom have won distinction In the re-
public Of letters.
o'Leary was born in Tipperary in
1880 and received his education In
Cork, Dublin and Paris. AS a bow he
Joined the Young Ireland movement
and had to flee the country because
of futile attempt to rescue two of the
revolutionists of '4S, who were execut-
ed Mt Clonmel. In Paris, where he
settled for time. he studied medf-
cine and with his diploma returned to
Dublin to practice his profession. He
was then drawn into the Fenian move
ment, with its sequel to him of prison
stripes and suffering.
OLeary was deep student of bis.
tory and literature and was an, able
and forceful writer. All through his
life the call Of Kathleen nj Houlihan
was ever in his ears and he died as
he lived a devoted lover of his coun-
try. While the movement with which
he was SO intimately connected in the
COS failed In its specific purpose, 1t
awakened English statesmen to real
tzlng sense that there were radical
wrongs in Ireland which should be cor
rected and we have the authority of
Gladstone for 1t that the Fenian move
ment led to the disestablIshment of the
Church of England in Ireland and to a
more critical study of the many sided
Irish question.
To-day the present Liberal admins
tration stands committed to home
rule policy for Ireland. with an En-
glish king sanctloning the settlement
of the questions which have so long
kept Ireland and England at swords
point, and no fair student of Anglo
Irish history can deny that this sltua-
tion Is in large measure due to men of
the OLeary stamp, who compelled a
study of Ireland's wrongs and forced
a consideration of her case at the bar
of English public opinion.
