brought dozen men, who had been
drinking inside the saloon, to the
street
Fusey himself, in company with a
couple of muscular hangers-on, one Of
whom was said to be William Fusev a
son of Andy. approached the officer
from the side and before the latter had
time to fire again they had gripped
him by the arms and Fusey wrested the
gun from his grasp.

OFFICERS GO INTO SALOON.
The police officers went inside the sa-
loon, within and surrounding which a
crowd of several hundred stood
tammed, and Chief Higgins proceeded
to tell Fusey what he thought OF his
conduct. Fusey's defense was that the
dog was shot on his own premises. Nc
Kenna, however. denies that the dog
was on Fusey's premises when he fired
the first shot, but that he retired to
the saloon entrance after he had been
wounded. The dog died later of his
wounds.

times takes strange forms A CORE

Private Forestry in ENGLAND

Everywhere in England you see pri-
vate forests planted for profit. Eng
land first won her naval supremacy in
ships built of English oak trees which
were practically planted for the pur-
pose on private estates. Public or
state forestry hardly exists in Eng
land. Here we commonly think that
forestry concerns the government
only. A few Americans will plant ca
talpa locust or some other tree crop
that natures in seven to fifteen years,
but when the passion for enduring
things becomes a national trait with
US we will plant oaks and other spe-
cies that require a hundred years or
more to mature. Meanwhile, the bu-
reau of forestry at Washington has a
plan for cooperating with anyone who
has forest in which profit is the chief

STRONG TOMB RENT BY TREE
Striking Instance of the Great Power
of Vegetation.

A correspondence calls attention to
a curious instance of the mechanical
power of vegetation in the out-of-the
way churchyard of Tewin, in HEREFORD
shire.
A tree, which has been divided into
two or three main stems grows
straight out of the tomb of a noble
dame who departed this life over two
centuries ago, and has rent her gloomy
home into pieces. Strangest sight of
all, it has wrapped itself round the
iron railing which used to guard the
grave, and which is thus now almost
entirely concealed inside the tree.
People come from far and near to
see the wonderful sight: and to them
is told a story that the quiet inhabi-
tant of this disrupted sepulcher was in
her day lady of very free thinking
opinions, and had said she would have
placed above her remains tomb that
no person could read-The Scotsman.

Where to Pat a Horse.

A horse lover who is also learned
in the ways OF horses, has been trying
to induce kindly disposed persons who
pet horses TO do so in d manner that
will give the animals pleasure Most
persons stroke the horses nose, an
operation which only we'll behaved
animal will tolerate, and, even he
cannot be said to get satisfaction out
OF such caressing. Gentle rubbing
over his eyes or up between his ears
gives him great pleasure, because here
are certain nerve centers that are
stimulated by this friction. Most of
those who know how to pet a horse
properly We're brought up in the coun-
try and thus learned to know the
horse as city boys can never do.
