The picture itself from a photographic standpoint, is a masterwork and the settings are rich and beautiful throughout.

Shanghai Bank
 Head Killed

Shanghai, Feb. 22. = Chang-sze-
 shen, manager of the Shanghai branch of the Bank Communications,
 was mysteriously assassinated on Jan-s fuary B. E-s < E The bank with which he was con snected, is largely under the direction
 of Liang Shih-yi. President Yuan Shi-
 kafs right hand man, and it 1Als been suggested that the crime was com .rnftted by revolutionists as a protest. against the monarchica1 movement This theory has not been supported,
 however, so far. The murdered man ager was not actively engaged in pol itics, and had never held any office.
 It has been charged by some of the revolutionists, however, that he con- stantly supplied information to Liang zShih-yi concerning the movements of the enemies of the Yuan Shf-kai gov .ernment. and was the financial agent who directed efforts against the pro
 testing progressiYes in Shanghai.
 Chang. Szeshen's family denies these allegations emphatfca1ly, and are at
 a loss to find motive for the crime.

 Bridging From the Ground.
 Where the wound is so large as to make ordinary bridge grating inpos- sible, another method of bridging may be used Two-year-old trees are planted about the base of the injured tree and their tops grafted into its trunk above the girdled space, which has first been cleaned as in the other method As the tops of the small trees are too large to manipulate readily in the manner described for scions, V-shaped vertical grooves ex- tending through the cambium are cut just above the wounded area in the bark of the tree to be treated. The tops of the small trees are shaped ito correspond with these grooves. The two are then accurately fitted together in such a manner as to bring the cam blum of one into contact with that of the other. Small nails may be driven through the tops of the trees into the trunk, to hold the parts firmly to- gether The wounds inciden to join ing the tops of the small trees to the trunk of the large one should be well covered with wax, to prevent drying out. Sometimes cord is tied around the trunk to aid in holding the tops of the young trees in proper position.
