either on October I or October 10
next from the arena of Republican
State politics new problems con-
front the Republican organization
men. 1t was an open secret for
some time that it was their inten-
ton to renorinate him by accla-
nation in the next State conven-
ton.
With Governor Hughes entirely
eliminated the names of two posi-
bic candidates for Governor were
discussed recently, those of Presi-
dent Schurman, of Cornell Univer-
sity, and David Jayne Hill, Am
bassador to Germany.
Roosevelt is the conundrum Of
the situation, all Republicans say.
While several of them have been
in communication with the ex-
President they hay emit the faint
est notion of what he will do on
his return and they say that
nothing whatever can be done un-
til Mr.. Roosevelt's suggestions
are received. Many in the pres
ent Republican State Organization
have criticised Mr.. Roosevelt for
commanding them in 1906 and
1908 to nominate Governor Hughes
and are still bitter about it.

A trip to Cuba would not be COM
plete without a visit to a sugar re-
hnery, and that is comparative
easy for an American, for four
fifth of them are either owned or
managed by Americans, and their
countrymen are always welcome
visitors.
There you can see the sugar
cane hoisted from the flat cars at
one end of the refinery and, follow
ing it down the course of its Jour
ney to the other end, you discover
strange carnations into the vari-
Gus watts. Into the first pours
syrup as thick and almost as black
as crude asphalt, and into the end
one pours the very finest syrup of
all, yellow stream as thin as the
sap from maple tree in spring.
From the black stream is crystaliz-
ed the lowest grade of brown
sugar, from the light yellow stream
the highest grade of cube sugar.
LAS you leave the sugar refinery
you will pass through miles of
sugar cane and if you are there
late in the season you will at con-
venient intervals come upon a
treacherous fellow carrying a rifle
in the hollow of his arm. He
scans you closely and will be quite
sure of your pacific identity before
you will be allowed to pass on. He
is guarding the sugar plantation.
All over the island those guards
are as numerous as almost as the
workers.
Right here in this sugar guard
you can study quickly and finally
all the complicated. melodramatic
politics OF the island. Why should
he guard sugarcane? Because in
the heart of the sugarcane lies all
the inftammable spirit of revolu-
ton. Around this sugarcane re-
wolves world politics, foor it is the
twin backbone Of Cuban industry
and there, on par with tobacco,
IS guiding the finances of the
realm and, as everyone knows,
high finance is today the soul of
politics, indeed of statecraft.
IF any Cuban workman be-
comes disafected for any cause
whatever or for no cause, he may
light a cigarette, stroll into the
sugarcane, flip his partially con-
sumed weed into the field ard pass
on. In less than an hour that en-
tire plantation will be in ashes and
thousands upon thousands of dol
lars will have gone up in smoke.
And who will deCipher the origin?
No one, unless the ever-vigilant
guard prevents the tossing of the
cigarette and then there will be no
fire.
But great number of tourists
never see the sugar fields, never
see the tobacco lands, Those who
are wealthy spend their time
motoring along the beautiful roads
which surround Havana und
stretch even as far as Santa Clara,
a third of the way across the is
land. The others stick to the
hotels, see occasional cockfght,
visit the jai alic courts or dance
the pleasant evenings away under
the semi-tropic moon.

THE HEIGHTS OF TREES
How Their Growth Is Influenced by
the Location.

A tree 100 feet high, accurately
measured, is not as tall as it looks.
There are not many trees in the
gardens and parks Of this country
that exceed 100 feet, notwithstand-
ing the records of reputedly much
higher trees than this. We have
been told that the highest tree in
Kew Gardens carefully measured
with a tape was 1903 feet and the
tallest pine, a Corsican near the
entrance, is SO feet.
There are some fine specimens
of Atlas and Lebanon Cedars in
these gardens, but not one of them
is 70 feet high. A larch that had
been drawn up by the surrounding
beeChes and was looked upon as a
giant was blown down in 1902 and
it proved to be no feet long
Beech, among the tallest of our
trees, rarely reaches 100 feet,
though DR.. Henry measured one
in Kilkenny in 1904 which was
~ feet. The famous deciduous
cypress, Tarodium distichum, in
Syon Park, Brentford, is, accord
ing to Mr.. Elves, no feet high,
the tallest of its kind in Europe.
The same authority gives los
feet as the height of the tallest
horse chestnut tree he had seen,
though there are others estimated
to be even higher than this. The
tallest walnut is from SO to IS feet
and the tallest black walnut, at
Marble Hall, Twickenham, was q8
feet high when measured by Dr..
Henry in 1905. Oaks have been
measured up to $50 feet, but they
are quite exceptional, 100 feet be-
ing above the average for our tall
est oaks.
The height of trees is influenced
by the company they grow in.
For example a larch growing in
the open would most likely fail to
reach 100 feet in heights, whereas
larches growing close together or
pressed upward by other trees
have been known to exceed 1870
feet in this country. The Cali
fornia giant trees Of the yelling
tonia owe their great height to
the same influence. Not even in
that country would this tree have
grown to 500 feet or more if it had
not been forced to grow upward
because it could not grow out
ward.
According to Mr.. Elves, one OF
the tallest wellingtonias in this
country is at Fonthill Abbey,
which in 1906 measured certain
ly over 100 feet and probably los
feet high" This is at least 10
feet higher than the tallest at
Strathfeldsaye. 1t is next to i'm
possible TO ascertain the correct
height of a tree by any other
means than that of careful meas
urement; there are, we know, in
genious contrivances for doing
it otherwise, but they are not reli-
able, OF course, the approximate
height may be near enough and
vet be a long way out.-From the

The Manly Man.
ber

The world has room for the manly
man with the spirit of manly cheer:
The world delights in the man who
smiles when his eyes keep ba x
the tears;
It loves the man who, when things
go wrong, can take his place and
stand
With his face to the fight and his
eyes to the light, and toll with a
willing hand;
The manly man is the country's need
and the moments need, forsooth,
With a heart that beats to the pulls
ing tread of the lilied leagues of
truth.
The world is his, and it awaits for
him and it leaps to hear the ring
OF the blow he strikes and the wheels
he turns and the hammers he dares
to swing.
Il likes the forward look in his face,
the poise of his noble head,
And the onward lunge of his tireless
will and the sweep of his daunt-
less tread
Hurrah for the manly man who
comes with sunshine on his face
And the strength to do and the wit
to dare and the courage to fine
his place.
The void delights in the manly mar
and the weak and evil fee,
When the manly man goes forth &c
hold his own on land and seal

Simple Christmas Gifts.

One young girl of my acquaint-
ance made her friends the ctuest
sponge-holder out of an ordinary
notwithstanding wash-cloth. The
holder was lined with thin rubber
sbeeting. Two yards of wash ribbon
we're divided in hald. and piece was
stretched across from one corner to
the opposite diagonal corner and fas-
tened to the cloth with small bow.
These ribbons are fastened again in
the center. and a small brass ring
used to suspend the holder was sew
ed fast at this point.
Another useful gift, which may be
made from half yard Of wide RIB
bon four inches wide, is a pincush-
ion to hold the ever troublesome hat
pin.
The ribbon is doubled and stitch
ed up the center to within two inches
of the top. then each half is divided
and stitched again; so that when the
outer edges are overhanded together
there will be four compartments.

The Aaw Concert

Stories Of the vocal ability Of Ii
len Beach Yaw have been in no way
This was evident Tues
day evening when the talented Amer
lean soprano appeared in concert at
the Independent Congregational
church under the auspices of the
Amateur Musical Club. From the
moment of her first appearance Miss
Yaw completely captivated her aud
fence with her exquisite voice. RIGA
and mellow in the lower range and
high, clear and bird-like in the up
per register. Her programme was es-
pecially suited to her, the French and
Italian numbers bringing out all the
rare capabilities of her voice, its per-
feet technique, its accurate intona-
ton, its sweet and sympathetic ex-
preston, and its pensive quality. Her
extremely high notes clear as crystal.
were nothing short of a revelation.
Her excellent phrasing and delicate
shading were characteristic of a voice
trained to the highest degree of ex-
cellence. It is safe to say that no sing
