FAMOUS WALNUTS ARE GOING
Woodmen Cutting Illinois Tract Of 400
Acres That Has Never Before
Peen Touched.

Woodmen entered the Makemson
tract of timber four miles east OF
Danville, October l, and began cutting
the worlds largest forest OF virgin
walnut timber. For the first time in
the memory OF the oldest |inhabitant
woudmen we're allowed to enter the
400. acre tract, which was closed to
the inspection of all save the close
friends of Hiram Makemson during
his life.
The forest land came into the pos
session Of the Makemson family by
means of a government land patent.
By both Hiram and his son 1t was
held sacred. All about the tract were
well-tilled acres. but not ever stock
was permitted in the wooded park I'M
til after the death of Its jealous
guardian. some months ago. In set
Ting up the estate a sale was ordered
by the court. An Indiana firm of lum-
Der buyers purchased the walnut, pay
ing $4,000 for the timber just as 1t
stands. The ash timber brought $780,
900 more, while the hickory, elm, and
oak and smaller timber brought the
total price for the standing timber
close to $3.50, 000.-Bloomington (ll.)

the government of Saxony has taken
measures to stamp out, as far as pos

Martha,s Vineyard in 1902.

Here is what Bartholomew Gosnold
wrore of his voyage to Martha's Vine
yard in 1902, the Christian Science
Monitor remarks:
I'VE stood awhile like men ravished
at the beautie and delicate of this
sweet sole; for beside divers clear
lakes of fresh water whereof we saw
no enid, meadows very large and full
of green grass and such an incredible
number of vines that we could not do
for tredding on them. This is the
goodliest land ever we saw, for 1t Is
~replenished with faire fields and in
them fragrant flowers; also meadows
and hedged with stately groves"
Martha's Vineyard is still covered
with the wild %grapevines, which gave
it its name, anc the farms have often
a high standing for productiveness.
Inded, one of these farms n C boast.
ed the largest corn crop e produced
on an acre. The yield was 125 bush
els Of shelled corn.

CURIOUS BITS
OF HISTORY
A MINNESOTA REGIMENT At
GETTYSBURG.
BY A. W. MACY.

At a critical Juncture during
the battle Of Gettysburg, when
the Confederates were pressing
hard at a certain point, Gen.
eraI Hancock rode up to a body
Of soldiers and inquired "What
regiment is this" 1.-THE First
Minnesota" was the response.
"charee that llne," commanded
Hancock. Not all the regiment
was there, only eight compa-
nles, 262 men; while the foe
against whom they were to hurl
themselves were many times
that number. But Il was theirs
not to make reply or reason
why, and not for one moment
did they think Hancock had
blundered. Into that gate Of
death they plunged, while ar
tllIery and musketry raked them
with shot and shell. Straight
70 the mark they went, and
they accomplished what they
were sent to do: they checked
the enemy's advance and held
the ground I'LL endorsements
came up. But at the end OF
that awful fifteen minutes fifty
Of the 262 lay dead, one hun
bred and s~sventy-flve we're
wounded, and thlrty-seven held
the line Of battle"

The western Pennsylvania par
ty of ladies and gentlemen who
were with the local editor on a
hunting trip to Taylor township
a few days ago, were enthusiastic
over the kindness and liberality
of Mr.. j. F. Johnson, who heaped
the auto with luscious fall pears
and nearly a bushel of nuts. We
feel almost certain that the little
French Canadian lassie will be
back in that neighborhood next
fall for more pears.

The Law Against TrespasSiDg.

Just now during the hunting
season, hunters and landowners
alike are interested in the law
against trespassing on private
property. AS a rule, hunters
have no desire to hunt on lands
where the owner does not wish
it; and owners want to know just
what to do, to protect themselves.
The law is very plain. Unless
trespass notices are posted, the
land is supposed to be open, and
suit can not be brought for tres
passing. If posters are put up,
hunters must stay off or take the
consequences. Here is the act;
read it for yourselves:
Making it unlawful to trespass upon
land posted as private property
providing the penalty therefor
SECTION l.. Be it enacted, &C.,
That from and after the passage
of this Act, it shall be unlawful
for any person willfully to enter
