TO SELL BOSCOBEL
Historic Estate Where Charles II.
Hid to Be Sold.
House That Sheltered Many Roman
Catholic Priests and Political
Refugees is Well Preserved
and Cared For Today.

New York.-A recent telegram from
London to The New YORK Times stated
that Boscobel, the historic estate on
the border of Staffordshire and Shrop-
shire, where Charles II. hid in an oak
tree after his defeat at the battle of
Worcester, was to be sold at auction
soon
The house itself, which sheltered
many Roman Catholic priests and po-
litical refugees before Charles took
refuge there in September 1861, is
well preserved, and the principal parts
remain as they were in the days Of
the Civil war, An oak. which is
shown as the one into which the royal
fugitive climbed when surprised by
Cromwells horsemen, stands, pro-
tected by iron railings, in a paddock
adjoining the estate.
There is a good deal of doubt as to
whether the tree now exhibited as the
oak which saved the Merry Mon
arch is actually the one up which he
climbed. A writer in a London paper
says Il notice that the famous Bos
cobel is for sale. and the report states
that the identical tree in which King
Charles H. hid himself is part of the
property. This, however, is not the
case, for according to limbs, the ver-
table oak was speedily destroyed aft
er the Restoration by the zeal of the
Royalists to possess relics OF their
sovereigns hiding place. Another
tree, raised from one of its acorns,
vas fourishing in the middle of last
century, and is probably the tree
which is now shown at Boscobel as
the authentic one. After all, the off
spring of a tree that preserved a
king is as worthy of its iron palisad
ing as the descendant of his human
preserver, unparalleled Penderell,' of
his pension. Four or five years ago a
case in the law courts here drew at
tention to the fact that an heir to
part of the Penderell pension existed
in the person of a London cabman.

BALKAN WAR BEGAN IN 1868
Conflict of Races Started Long Ago.
Seems Destined Now to Be Fought
to a Finish.

An Italian newspaper reminds us
usefully that the Balkan war began
centuries ago. In the state archives
at Vienna is the declaration of war
sent by Sultan Mehemet ". to EN-
peror Leopold in 1852 BE it known
to you, the heir of the Caesars, to the
king of Poland. and to your allies
and omnipotent emperor of the east
and west is on the point of
invading your paltry territories. We
shall bring 100000 soldiers, on horse
and foot, to crush you utterly and lay
waste all your domains. We command
YOU TO await our coming in our our
residence in Vienna. where it is our
intention to have you beheaded'
But the war was even then an old
story. The delightful writer who con
tributes The Office Window to the
London Daily Chronicle tells us that
while searching through some OF the
earliest newspapers printed his eye
was continually diverted to news let
ters from the continent giving ac-
COulJS VI lne uIHOlN NdT WHICH ui
key was waging on Hungary and Aus
tria. Almost at random he copies the
following from the Newes of Septem-

Turk has remained unchanged and un-
changeable for these $50 years at
least:

Electricity and Plant Life.

The theory has been advanced and
backed up by experiments which are
at least interesting, that pointed
leaves standing up at the top of grow
ing plants attract electricity from the
atmosphere and that such electric
forces aid materially in the growth of
plants so equipped by nature. One in
vestigator, R. f. Dimick of Almena,
Wis, reports that vegetables which
were we'll cultivated have shown a
smaller growth than the normal when
they had pointed wires stuck up
among them to act like lightning rods
in drawing off the electricity which

Partisan, Suffering From Catarrhal
ophthalmia, Brings Strange
Case to Doctors Notice,

Paris.-A man stung by bee the
other day has thus discovered an un-
usual cure for catarrhal ophthalmia,
and has brought his case to the atten-
ton of Dr. Tarnawski. The doctors
patient was suffering from double ca
tarrhal ophthalmia that had resisted
all orthodox. treatments. He was
stung by a bee on his left eyelid.
When he woke up the next morning
he found that the light was no longer
painful to his eye and that the dis
charge had ceased. The delighted pa
tient captured another bee and had it
sting him on the other eye. The next
morning 1t was cured.
