talked with quaint kind of melan-

A GREEN OLD AGE.
Enjoyed by Very Old Tree by the
Mississippi.


The New York Times.-The most
ancient living thing on earth is a
tree Exactly where that tree stands
is a mooted question, for many locali-
ties lay claim to it; but there have
been scientists curious enough to in
vestigate the various claims, and we
can probably arrive at a pretty exact
result by a few comparisons.
Recently somebody has put forth
the claim of the so-called "Old Green
Tree of the Mississippi Valley
which stands near the river in LIE
Claire, 10. It's trunk is more than
one hundred feet in circumference and
it's branches shade a circle of more
than three hundred feet. 1t was an
ancient tree when the first white man
stood under its branches, and has a
place in the traditions of the Indian
tribes of the Mississippi valley dating
back long, long before the first white
face was seen on the shores of the
western world
There are certain yews in England
landed on her shores. More than a
century ago a scientist named Ocean
dole proved to the satisfaction of
botanlsts that a certain yew standing
in the churchyard of Portugal, Perth
shire, was more than $500 years old,
and he found another at Hedsor, in
Buclas, which was 3,24O years old at
that time.
Humboldt refers to gigantic boa
bah tree in central Africa as the old
est organic monument in the world.
This tree had a trunk twenty-nine feet
in diameter, and Adanson, by a series
of careful measurements. demon
strated conclusively that it had lived
for not less than $3.50 years-and it
lives today. But even Humboldt was
wrong in his premise. 1t has re-
Gently been proved that there is a
tree in the new world which, of YER
ity, has lived to "a green old age. >
for it antedates the scriptural flood
about two thousand years.
This is cypress tree standing in
the Province of Chepultapec, Mexico.
with trunk 11S feet 10 inches in
circumference. This has been shown to
be Gas conclusively these things can
be shown, about $3.50 years of age.
Nor is this so remarkable when one
stops to think that, given favorable
conditions for it's growth and susten-
ance, the average tree will never die
OF Old age. It's death is merely an
accident. Other younger and more
vigorous trees may spring up near it.
and rob its roots of their proper nour-
ishment: insects may kill it; floods or
winds may sweep it away, or the
Woodman,s axe may fell it. If no such
accident happens to it tree NAV
