FREAKS OF NATURE
A Tree That Throws SomersauIts and a
Waterfall Reversed.

A tree gone mad and waterfall that
falls up instead Of down are among
the strange things to be seen in Ha-
waii, as described by John Burroughs
in the Century Magazine:
Mature in the tropics, left to her
self, is harsh, aggressive, savage;
looks as though she wanted to hang
you with her dangling ropes or impale
you on her thorns or engulf you In her
never as placid and sane as in the
north. There is tree in the Hawaiian
woods that suggests tree gone mad.
1t is called the hau tree. 1t lies down.
squirms and wriggles all over the
ground like wounded snake. 1t gets
up and then takes to earth again. Now
1t wants to be vine; now 1t wants to
be a tree. 1t throws somersaults, 1t
makes itself into loops and rings, it
rolls, 1t reaches, it doubles upon itself
Altogether it is the craziest vegetable
growth l ever saw.
"It was near Pail that saw what /
had never seen or heard Of before-a
WotSIidAi iCNSiSeO, SOluS up lu5Iedu VI
down. 1t suggested Stockton's story
of negative gravity. A small brook
comes down off the mountain and at
tempts to make the leap down high
precipice, but the winds catch it and
carry 1t straight up in the air like
smoke. 1t is translated; it becomes a
mere wrath lowering above the bee
tling crag. Night and day this goes
on, the wind snatching from the noun
tains In this summary way the water
1t has brought them"
The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1913-05-23
NEWFOUNDLAND.

On the 18th of May
In land far away
A little boy was born,
But when he was still in his in
fancy,
He was brought to this land of
Liberty.
And God spared his life,
And he prospered and grew,
And feared not the strife bitter and
long;
And though his years now number
seventy-two,
He's still happy and hale and strong.
On Monday evening, May 18th, a
