THE CHARTER OAK.
Bells TolIed and Funeral Direes Played
When It Fell.

When II Fell.
The charter oak of Hartford was a
white oak. The story goes that when
James, duke Of York, assembled the
throne of England and sent Andres to
take away all colonial charters Con-
necticut alone refused to surrender
hers. Andres was furious over this
defiance, and Oct 81, 1857, he returned
to the assembly hall of Hartford with
a body of soldiers and demanded in
slant surrender of the charter which
lay in box on the table. A hot dis
cussion followed. Finally Andres
stretched out his hand to seize the
disputed paper. Then the candles
We're suddenly extinguished, and the
people who had gathered on the street
outside rushed in a disorderly crowd
into the hall. There was a period OF
wild confusion in the dark. and when
the candles were finally relighted no
charter was to be found. 1t had been
removed by Captain Wadsworth and
concealed in the oak, which ever after
ward bore its name.
The oak was even them old. when
land the Indians begged that it might
be spared. 1T has been the guide Of
our ancestors for centuries they said.

When the leaves are the size of a
mouse's ears. then Is the time to put

quest was granted, and the tree. after
ward becoming the custodian of the
lost charter, became famous for all
time. 1t fell in a windstorm Aug u,
1864 and SO deeply was it venerated
that at sunset on the day Of its fall
the bells of the city were tolled and a
band of music played funeral dirges
over its ruins.
At the time of its fall its circumfer-
ence one foot from the ground was
twenty-five feet, and it was estimated
to be over 900 years old.-Kansas City

John w. Mcintyre, an engineer on

be under the general supervision OF
the state chairman.
Chairman O'Neill has returned

dtions fairly encou raging In that
section of the state. However, 1t
can readily be seen that the chairman
is fully aware that strenuous WORK
must be done in the campaign now
Oh to save Idaho for tie republican
ticket. Never vas there such a pecu
liar condition In the political arena
Of this state as there is at this time
and almost anything might happen
The two leading parties have troubles
OF their own, and the result Is appar'
emily beyond reasonable conception
OF even the political prophet.
In this campaign party lines hav'
been lost sight OF and the fight SEEM

ers that they will sweep the stat
and elect every candidate on thei
state ticket.
