foothold to develop beyond the first
stages of plant growth. But the one
that does can almost be seen to grow.
Their upper leaves are all on level
and glow with the most beautlfui
tints. The branches Of the different
trees are so interlaced that II Is I'M
possible to distinguish which flower
and leaf belongs to which tree.

Artificial Precious Stones.

Gen,stones owing their attractive
ness 1a art are not now mere imita-
tians, but the actual stones are pre-
duced artifciaily, as in the case of
rubies and sapphires. In other In
stances, natural minerals are improved
artifciaHs. an important industry
exists in the artificial coloring of the
semi-precious agate. and giving new
colors to other stones has been at
tempted. At the Reno station Of the
United States bureau OF mines, ra-
dium has been used to obtain a more
valuable tint. A colorless Colorado
topaz has been given a pleasant yell
low, and. while this has not proven
permanent when exposed to light, ex-
perimeRts are being continued with
the hope that ight-proof shades may
be eventuaHv produced.

Revjxal Of the British Beard.

A young man about town walked
down Bond street in London recently,
and the sight so shocked the sensitive
british public that the London Daily
Chronicle\ saw tit 10 run the Item as
a news item.
He was elegantly dressed, says the
paper. and carried the familiar cane
OF Piccadilly, while monocle reposed
In his right eye. But his beard was
the masterpiece of the outfit. 1t was
very dark, it recalled the pictures OF
the Stuart kings, and created sem
salion wherever it was seen.
The young man, except for MS
beard. was Enthusiastically English.
II don't think that boards for young
men are likely to be popular outside
the West end" hardreSser in the
neighborhood Of Bond street told u
Chronicle representative.
'But certain young men about town
appear to be tired Of looking like
stage heroes, and have decided to
grow boards. A beard makes some
men look younger, and man who has
a weak mouth and chin which slight
ly recedes should wear both mustache
and beard"

There was recently the biggest dis

have ever happened to observe. 1T
seems to have been an enormous erup-

were thrown to Il height Of hundreds OF
thousands Of miles.
A gigantic arch of fire. spanning; a
large section of the suns edge (as
seen through the telescope), rose, up
held. as 1t were, by two columns. one
at each end Rising still higher, it
finally broke, assuming thereupon a
spiral form. The arch was at least
10000 miles high, and lasted four
months before it disappeared.

attained a height OF 100000 miles, oc

but 6e-day voyage was recently com
pleted during which the ships cap
tain might just as we'll have been

Stevens, who has just returned to this
country, took the new steamer Josepha
from Duluth to Barcelona, there
delivering her to her new owners. His
crew was made up of Spaniards, none
Of whom could speak word OF Eng
lish. The result was that Captain
Stevens had to do his talking with his
hands, giving orders by signs. After
the 60 days were at an end the skip
per found himself so in the habit OF
making signs that when he finally ar
rived among people who could speak
q language that he understood I've had
to make unusual effort to refrain from
using the sign language.-New York

Ho. Hum. How Sleepy We Are!

A story of a drifting mine Whicn
came ashore on the Durham coast
some time ago, and gave rise to an
amusing Incident, which might have
easily resulted in 9 tragedy, is told by
the London Morning Post.
"One Saturday afternoon the mine
sweeping division at the admiralty re
eeiped a long distance telephone call

stated that mine had been washed
ashore. but that before they or the
ceast guard could warn people on. q

sleep. What were they to do! They
were given strict injunctions not to
attempt to arouse the man, because IN
waking up suddenly he might break
one of the 'hOrns,' with disastrous re-
suits to himself and others. Two hours
later the po4iee, in a very relieved
voice, reported that the man had awak-
ened of his own accord and had slid
of the mine into safety"

FIND SHIP IN HEART OF CITY
Hull Buried in San francisco, ReccC5s
Show, Is q Relic of the Cold
Rush Days.

San Francisco discovered an old
wooden ship under the streets OF It's
business section recently, relates Pop
ular Mechanics Magazine. Contrac-
tors, excnyating deep foundation f"r
a new skyscraper with steam snovelS'
were hindered in their work by strange
massive timbers found 80 feet belo"
the surface. They had accidentally
stumbled upon the preserved remains
Of some strange buried craft.
The bronze -sheathed and copper
bolted hull measured 100 feet In
length by 80 feet beam, and great III
terest was aroused by the puZZling To-
cation OF the relic mile frem any
water. The citys history revealed,
however, that it was the Euphemla,
a bit Of whose historic and romantic
existence is as follows:
In the days OF 40, when the mad
stampede around the Horn to the ne"
California gold fields was ON, nuiner-
GUS ships were abandoned by their
crews at the end of the journey, ana
left to rot on the mud Hats OF San
Francisco bay. But, in forming the
municipal government OF the fast
growing city by the Golden Gate, the
first town council bought the
Euphemia, and converted it into
prison ship. Those We're rough
days in San Francisco and this, the
first jaii the city coHld boast, was tied
to a wharf, and soon filed up.
An old sketch OF the scene at this
part of the water front reveals an
other ship, the Apollo, converted into
a saloon and lodging house. AS the
city crew and forced the waters or
the bay back from the spot by hlllng
ia the shadows, the novel spectacle
was formed Of strange sbin sticking
up out Of the ground in the heart OF
the city, surrounded by substantial
stone and brick structures.
During the next 56 years, the city
attained great size. Then 1T was sud-
denly half leveled by great lire. Ahd
had it not been for the necessity OF
a deep foundati tien for the latest eal-
Ace to rise over the spot, u years
after the Enphemia became jail, the
old hull would have slumbered on for
another fifty or one hundred years.
AS it was, the contractors experienced
considerable difficulty in removing the
mud and sand-loeked skeleton with
modern steam tackle, but made small
fortune out of the sale Of the heavy
copper aud brass junk found on II.
