Cut Trees by Exploding Dynamite.

Instead of an ak and saw to remove
the tops of trees that are to be used
as masts in logging operations, dyna-
mite is used to shoot off the tops.
After the branches have been removed,
a rigger climbs the tree. with set Of
irons, to the point where 1t is neces-
sary to cut of the top. Here the trunk
is usually about Il inches in diane
ter. The rigger ties a string Of dyna-
mite cartridges, fastened end to end
like sausages. around the trunk at this
point, inserts blasting cap with about
20 feet of fuse in one of these sticks
lights the end Of the fuse, and de-
scends before the explosion takes
place. The tree top pumps into the
air with the explosion and the trunk
is left ready for attaching the rigging
for dragging in and loading the logs.

All He Saw of Battle.

The biuejacket had been in the bat
tie off Jutland, and in the railway COM
partment every one addressed him re-
spectfully. Incidentally he was the
recipient of numerous fine cigars. He
conducted himself with becoming dig
nifty, and when the fOreign-looking gen.
tleman who had kept silent went out
at a roadside station the audience set
tied down to hear the yarn. Nodding
his head toward the dark stranger on
the platform, the bluejacket remarked
with a grin. "'E thinks e as lost some
think ed like to hear, e as. But hall
Hi saw of the bloody battle was coal
nothing but coal. Him a stoker, you
see, that's what Hi am."-London Mall.
