ing the movements of Laurence from
a place too distant for him to observe
Snap. If he had seen Snap when that
four-legger first came to the camp he
must have thought that he followed
his master away into the woods. ANY,
way, transactions proved that the
tramp did not realize the presence of
Snap inside the tent, nor about the
camp premises.
About twenty minutes after Snap
had stretched himself inside the
tent, as self-appointed guard Of the
place, a noise caught his ear. It was
the sneaking step Snap knew 30 we'll.
He sat up, his ears bent in listening
attitude. He did not bark. He was
too wise for that.
The tent opened and q hideous head
was thrust in. Then a whole body en-
tered. The head had failed to note
the figure of Snap in q corner Of the
tent. In fact, a pile Of bedding helped
to conceal him, for he lay behind it.
The tramp came into the tent and
began to pick up some loose garments
he saw there. He had Just filled his
arms, and was bending down to get
at the mess box (where bread, bacon,
sugar and coffee were stored) when q
small, compact form darted at him,
and before he realized what was hap
pening Snap had hold Of his coat
sleeve. Snap had missed his aim.
He had intended to grab the mans
throat. But he held to the piece Of
sleeve like q wise. In vain did the
tramp try to shake him of. Out Of
the tent the tramp ran, struggling
against Snap, who growled between
his tightly shut teeth, hanging on like
the proverbial grim death. The
tramp was afraid to strike the dog
for fear Of his letting 30 the coat in
order to get hold on his flesh. So he
shook himself and then began trying
to got out Of the coat. Together
man and dog struggled several feet
from the tent, and then something
else happonod.

And very deliberately
Did take aim at him.
The dear little squirrel
Gave q cry Of despair:
Then his poor, tortured body
Shot down through the air.
And fell to the ground;
And the boy laughed and said:
I'm a pretty fair shot
The squirrel Is dead"
So onward he went,
Taking life on the way
A squirrel or a bird
Till the close Of the day.
Then homeward he turned,
His game bag we'll filled;
And he cared not at all
For the blood he had spilled.
But when a fierce dog
Did run out to bite
The brave hunter boy
He screamed in great fright.
And ran down the street,
For bite wasn't fun,

has been vacant since the death of
Mrs. Astor.
The social rivalry between Mrs.
Mills and Mrs. Drexel has been in
tense this summer. Mrs. Drexel has
strong allies in many Of the younger
people, and she has been active in en-
tertaining all season. Six dances and
many dinners and luncheons are in
cluded in her list of entertainments al
ready given, and others are to follow.
Earlier in the summer Mr.. Drexel, it
is understood, gave his wife 100000
as an entertaining fund, and she has
disbursed this with a lavish hand.
Fairholm, the Drexel estate on Ochre
Point, opposite Mrs. Vanderbilt's the
Breakers, all summer long has been
the headquarters Of the younger set.
Mrs. Mills applied the $50 idea to the
recent dance she gave at her place on
the cliffs for her sonin-law and daugh-
ter, Earl and Countess Granard, the
most exclusive entertainment held in
Newport in many years. Mrs. Mills,
with her daughters, Countess Granard
and Mrs. Henry c. Phipps, wrote the
cards for the $50 persons invited.

Fish Avoid Turbines,

The belief that factories may be very
destructive to fish through their tur.
bines seem to be modified by recent
experience. Nearly a score of years ago
Sir Thomas Brady expressed the
opinion that few fry survive an en-
counter with a turbine, and his expert
ments tended to prove that most of
those passing through are killed. A
Scotch Investigator now finds that
young and old fish may at least easily
avoid the turbines. Not less than TWEEN
ty experiments with trout and salmon
have been reported by Professor Nc
1ntosh of the marine laboratory at st.
Andrews, and one Of the striking re-
suits was the ease with which trout
swan about the turbine pits without be.
Ing drawn into the vortex caused by the
action Of the turbines. They seemed
quite capable of avoiding being injured
except in case Of some special accident.
Under good conditions they could swim
out OF the turbine pits and pass up
stream to seek some safe way Of get,
ting by the turbines.

PETRIFIED TREES.
Three Prehistoric Giants Discovered In
California.

Three Prehistoric Giants Discovered In
California.
Three petri1ed redwood trees that
have been pronounced the very largest
in the world that have thus far been
discovered have just been uncovered
from the debris of the mountain side
only a short distance from the ia
nous Bohemian club grove, in Sonoma
county, Cal. This point is near the
little town of Occident, One OF these
prehistoric monsters, which make the
pyramids Of Egypt modern by com
parison in their ages. measures twenty
three feet in diameter and is $50 feet
in length. The other two petrified
trees are thirteen and twelve feet in
diameter, respectively.
The very largest petrifed trees yet
discovered. near Calistoga. Sonoma
county, CAL, are only twelve feet in
diameter. These three trees lie N a
wooded hill! pointing due north and
south. The petrifaction is most remark
able, the grain of the wood and in one
of them the decaying heart being very
plainly discernible. Surrounding these
petrifed trees is standing a forest Of
very large redwoods. However. all OF
the standing trees are dead. The owner
Of the land on which these three great
p%etrifactions lie is now having the
debris all cleared away so as to fully
expose the giant trunks, and an iron
railing will protect them.-Scientifc
