BOYLSTON LOSES APPEAL.
Convicted Of Murder in BarnWel]
Has Life Sentence.

Ralph Boyleston will serve the re-
mainder Of his days in the peniten-
tiary for the murder of Cleveland
Tanning. The supreme court has
rendered a decision affirming the de-
cision of the circuit court, which
means life Imprisonment. The mur-
der for which Boylston must suffer
was one of the most atrocious in the
history of the State. In the early
summer of last year young flaming
was found dead in a road in Barn
well county and was supposed to have
been shot from ambush.
Boyleston was indicted in June Of
last year and the jury returned YER
dict of guilty. A motion for a new
trial was made by Boyleston upon
the ground that there was a total
absence of evidence, upon which the
verdict could have been based, that
the testimony showed conclusively
that although the defendant had
been at or near the place where the
dead body was found, in the early
part of the afternoon of the night of
the killing, yet that he had left the
place and there was absolutely no
evidence of any character showing
his return to the place and that the
testimony as to the tracks and the
trailing Of the hounds was vague
and indefinite, uncertain and not suf-
fcient to connect the defendant with
the homicide. The motion for new
trial was overruled by the judge in
the case and Boyleston was sentenced
to Imprisonment for his lifetime in
the penitentiary.

intense heat of the tropical sun of those lands
where they most flourish.
The Eucalyptus globulus, generally called
the blue gum,f from its bluish-green leaves, is
the variety most successfully grown In Califor-
nit. 1t has also been introduced and fiourishes
in India, Natal, Egypt, Algeria, and in various
parts of southern Europe and in some other
warm countries. 1t cannot stand the frost, and
so must be classed among tropical trees. Per-
haps only in the state of Florida and Califor-
MIA can we expect to see 1t in perfection in
this country; yet although its introduction into
California has been Of but recent date, already
Its value to that state has been very consider
able.
Some of the species of eucalyptus are much
more valuable than others. There is also a
great diversity both in their appearance and
worth. One of the most valuable is the Euca-
lyptus marginata, popularity called the Jarrah
wood. 1t grows to a great size and its tim
Der is so hard that it is found to be especial
ly valuable in the construction of wharvos. as
1t resists the attack of the ship worms and
borers that are so destructive to ordinary wood.
Because of this quality 1t also enters largely
into the construction of ships and is utilized
In other marine uses.
Some varieties Of the eucalyptus yield a

while from others a species of mamma hard
little, sweet substance-is obtained in consid-
cradle quantities. AS an antidote against ma
laria and as being valuable in warding off or
dissipating malaria in regions where malaria
abounds, the eucalyptus has obtained a con-
siderable reputation. Expert opinions seem to
be divided as to the way in which its benef-
cent results come about. some think it is the
result of the volatile oils which these trees
give off through their leaves, acting as a neu-
tralizing and even destructive power against
the malarial matter In the atmosphere; others
maintain that its benefcent results are caused
by the fact Of the trees being such rapid grow
ers. and the great quantity of water they thus
absorb and then give off purifes the atmo-
Sphere. Whatever may be the cause, the fact
Is evident that their presence In goodly num-
bers, planted In malarial regions, has produced
most benefcent results.

by the late Bishop Taylor from distant Aus
tralia, its original home.
1t was a surprise, as we'll as a revelation, to
find on our recent visit to Australia that In
that PARKWAY land, under the Southern Cross,
were growing trees that lowered in the air $50
feet higher than the great Sequoia, the famous
red wood Of our American west; and yet such
is the fact, as some specimens Of the Eucalyp-
tus amygdalina reach to the great height of
480 feet. Specimens abound that are from 100
to 200 feet in circumference. They are prac-
tically of no use for commercial purposes, as
the expense Of cutting down such enormous
trees and then getting their logs split up into
pieces that can be handled is so great that
these monsters are passed by the thrifty lum
bermen for the smaller ones that are more
easily handled.
The Eucalyptus amygdalina is the tallest, If
not perhaps the largest, tree that grows. Speci-
mems over 400 feet high are frequently found,
while some have been measured towering up
to 470 and 480 feet. The timber Of these great
specimens is easily worked, and, as it does not
warp readily, is much used in carpentry.
The eucalyptus tree is a genus of trees and
shrubs of the natural order of Myrtacea, en-
bracing about $50 species. All but four Of
them are natives Of Australia and Tasmania
only. The eucalyptus trees are so abundant
in many parts Of Australia that over vast areas
they are practically the only trees visible. The
fact that the fully developed trees are desti-
tute Of symmetry and beauty robs the great
Australian wooded regions of that attractive
ness and charm which gives such pleasure and
delight to the primeval forests of America.
One striking characteristic of several varie-
ties of the eucalyptus is that, while they never
seem to shed their leaves, they cast or slough
off their bark in long strips every year. The
leaves, which have a leathery appearance, con-
tain a considerable quantity Of volatile oil. The
tincture or oil extracted from them has a bit
ter aromatic taste and is extensively used as
a remedy for various diseases.
On the young shoots of many species the
leaves In pairs are opposite to each other, as
they appear on ordinary plants, while on the
older branches the leaves are arranged alter
nately and grow In such a way that they pre-
sent their edges to the sun. This seems to be
natures provision to protect them from the

Bishop William H. McVieKar of the
Episcopal diocese of Rhode Island, has
hundreds of Boston friends who will

The bishop is as big physically as he
is mentally. On a certain occasion
some years ago, he preached a sermon
on the need for missionary work in
the back towns of his state, and espe-
cially mentioned the town of Foster,
which certainly deserved as much as
he said about 1t.

life, and slammed and feared, are now the
abodes of numbers Of people who find, since
the introduction Of the eucalyptus trees, but
little traces of the dreaded malaria that for
ages once caused those regions to be so
Stunned and deserted.
In the low malarial regions around the Cape
of Good Hope and in some similar unhealthful
regions around Algiers and elsewhere, the
same benifcent results have followed the intro
duction of the eucalyptus trees.
AS yet no variety has been discovered that
is able to withstand even a moderate frost, but
the fact that millions of these trees. can be
raised so easily and quickly in California and
Florida and perhaps In the warm places on the
Gulf of Mexico, and that It's timber can be so
widely utilized, is a matter for congratulation
to all who. are interested In the conservation of
our forests and also in the introduction Of new
varieties of trees that will add to the timber
wealth of the country.
n general, eucalyptus may be successfully
planted In the sections Of the United States
suitable for the culture Of citrus fruits. They
are grown in nearly all the agricultural sec
lions Of California, along the coast Of southern
Oregon, and to a limited extent In Arizona.
New Mexico and western Texas. Several spe-

sional frosts have killed or severely damaged
the trees, and for this reason planting has
been discouraged.
The blue gum Eucalyptus ~globulus) has a
phenomenally rapid rate of growth. Seedlings
stands will average a height growth Of so feet
In 6 years and 100 feet in 10 years. Under
very favorable conditions individual trees have
reached a height Of 1875 feet and a diameter Of
SO inches In 8 years. In sprout stands growth
is even more rapid; trees frequently reach 8
inches In diameter and 35 feet in height In 8
months, while In 8 years a diameter Of Z inches
and a height of 10 feet are often attained. In
California, under favorable conditions, trees
have attained a height of ITS feet and a d.
ameter of 5 feet in rs years. Although some
times irregular in form, the tree tends to de-
velop a straight, gradually ~tapering, unforked
stem. In plantations the trunks become rap
idly cleared of branches to a considerable
height, but in the open, trees branch more
widely and gradually develop a short crown
Of massive, spreading branches.
Blue gum is practically immune from dis
ease. Where trees are reproduced by sprouts,
the old stumps frequently decay slowly at the
heart, while the sprouts remained unaffected.
Growing trees are not attacked by insect enc
mics, but felled timber lying Embarked upon
the ground is subject to injury by a wood-mi.
ming insect.
Blue gum rarely suffers any b~reakage Of the
limbs by winds, and the spreading root sys-
tenn renders the trees very wind-frm.
