JUST ABOUT TREES

Trees grow pn mountain
sides, in remote country dis
tricts, and in some residen-
tial quarters. They furnish
shade, presidential timber.
and. when sliced thin, deli
cious breakfast foods.
Trees are useful for cut
ting down, and furnish occu-
patton for the otherwise un-
employed. In the form of
railroad ties, they furnish a
basis for bond issues and for
stock market panics.
Trees may be oak, beech,
chestnut or elm, but they
are always popular. They
make excellent fire, especial
1y when made into some
novels.
Trees are brown and
green. but when made into
paper are generally yellow.
This is when they bark loud
est.
} Trees were at one time
used for hanging purposes.
Now we use investigating
} committees, ties showing the
advance in civilization.-Lip-
pincott's.

KID BROAD IN RANKS
OF RING COME-BACKS
KID BROAD.

NEW ORLEANS, March 10
They do come back once in a
while.
That first-class fighter never
returns to form after he has been
beaten is an accepted theory
among followers of the pugilistic
game, but the recent showing of
Kid Broad and Young Corbett,
following upon the heels of Bat
Ting Nelson and Stanley Ketchell
goes to prove that the contrary is
true.
Nelson was beaten by Cans, but
came back and defeated his con-
queror; Ketchell was knocked out
by Papke, whom he subsequently
defeated in hurricane style; Cor
bett was beaten by Britt and Nell
son, but is now showing that he
can give a good account of him
self; Broad never was a champion.
but be was close to the top until
he hit the tCboggan. Now he has
returned to the ring, and in the
few fights he has had has demon
strated that he retains a wallop,
while his stiffness is as apparent
as 1t was when he went that fast
20 rounds with Young Corbett in
Denver.

he is for being the son of Hetty
Green, the captainess of finance.

Iordered one from Wright Bros. OF

Already the poets of the south
west, from Houston to Albu-
querque. are thumbing their books
of synonyms, and wetting the lead
pencils. A chance>like this doesn t
come every day.
Green, the son, has lots OF
money, like his mother, and is
willing to spend it. In fact, he
has spent some considerable coin
already. This new venture will
make quite a draft on his safety

SHERIFF ENT.

With this week the term of office
of Charles b. Ent as Sheriff of
Columbia County will end. On
Monday next his successor, Viii
liam p. Zehner, will be sworn into
office.
Sheriff Ent has made an admir-
able official. All the business of his
Office has been prom .,tly and intel
ligently handled, and all persons
who were brought in contact with
him in his official capacity have
been courteously treated.
He had a host of friends before
he became sheriff, and he will go
out with just as many, for h. has
done his duty in the way that he
deemed to be right, without fear
or favor, and without undue op-
preston when the strong arm of
the law compelled him to do un-
pleasant things.
Sheriff Ent will move into his
property on Third street, between
Market and Center.

THE CHRISTMAS STORM.

Bloomsbury was fortunate in
sharing but small portion of the
storm which swept over the Allan
tic states on Christmas. In this
town it amounted to a little more
than a good sized snow fall, but in
many localities it broke the record,
surprising in its severity even the
bllzzards of 1888 and 1899.
Philadelphia suffered more than
it has ever done before, all traffic
and wires being put entirely out of
commission and business seriously
crippled. Trolley cars, automobiles
and ambulances were stuck i'll the
drifts all night Saturday. Train
service was practically at stand
still for several hours.
In New York and New England,
conditions were similar. all reports
indicating that the storm was one
of the worst ever encountered.
Shipping along the coast was
damaged TO a great extent, and
many wrecks entailing loss of life
were reported.

DANCE HALL BURNED
Joe Fest's establishment on Fifth
Street destroyed in a short time
last evening.
ICY NIGHT TO FIGHT FIRE.

With the temperature only few
degrees above zero, the fire depart
ment was forced to fight a blaze
which destroyed the dance Hall of
Joe Fest on Fifth Street last even
ing about six o'clock.
The building was a wooden
structure, ard included a dance
hall, Io2X4o feet and a two-s;ory
addition, SoXI6, used as the resi-
dence and confectionery store.
A fire had been started in a
stove in the front part of the
building which in some way set
fire to the ceiling. 1t was only a
short time until the entire struct-
ure w;s ablaze. Fest's loss will
probably be about $4,000 upon
which he has $1,000 insurance,
while Homer Johnson, who con-
Quoted SIX ating rink in the build
ing, suffered loss which he places
at 81, 800 and upon which there Is
no insurance
The fire companies deserve much
credit for their valiant and even
painful work, for the water froze
on their bodies almost as soon as it
struck them.
