Sailors Once Made Slaves

In Algiers, before the French took
upon themselves the burden Of regu.
lating that country properly, sailors
touching on the coast Of French-Span
fish Algiers were sometimes taken a
slaves, and in many instances were
not freed. Slavery prevailed all over
Africa at that time, and 1t was when
the abuse became fragrant that France
stepped forcibly into the country and
restored civilized order.

In Tibet 1t is the custom of natives,
when meeting, to stick out their

ABOUT THE AGE or TREES.
Oldest in Europe-Rings Formed by
Annual Growth an Evidence.


Oldest in Europe-Rings Formed by
Annual Growth an Evidence.
There are few questions of nat
ural history more interesting or on
which Imagination allows itself more
faraway flights than the ages OF
trees. The famous plane In the
Aegena island of Cos, which has been
the wonder and admiration Of cen
turtles, has again challenged atten-
ton; on this occasion with a re
vised" claim to the age of 1900
years.
1t has been repeatedly visited and
described, and there can be no doubt
as to-its being a tree Of patriarchiai
venerability. But the subject OF its
age has SO often been dismissed With
the estimate that 1t must be "at
least a thousand years old" that the
addition of another thousand is lit
tle startling. The facility with
which this result has been attained
is. however, eminently characters
tic. IN q recent account Of the tree
attention is called TO a suggestion OF
the late Dean Farrar that both St.
Luke and ST. Paul had probably
rested beneath its shade. The idea
is highly picturesque, says the Lon
don Globe, but It can only be soberly
regarded as a piece Of effective local
color
This, however. is by no means the
only tree Of its kind which has been
similarly endowed with fancy age.
The famous plane near Caphyoe, in
Arcadia, is thought to be the iden-
teal tree referred to BY Pausanias
In the second century; and another
near Constantinople is considered Of
equal age. OF course these trees be-
long to the Oriental branch Of the
great Platanus family. the planes
with which Iondoners are SO pleas
antly familiar being all Of the West
ern species.
On such subject we have still to
look to the German Forestry De-
partment for some OF the most carer
fully ascertained facts and deduc-
tions. II is the opinion Of those best
qualified to Judge THAT there 'is no
European tree which can be proved
TO be older Khan 500 years, and that
mo tree ia Germany attains that age
in a healthy state. The rings formed
by the annaul growth Of exogenous
trees are. Of course. the best evil
dence Of their age, but this Is only to
be obtained before decays effaeing
fingers have obliterated the record
Documentary evidence Of the ex-
istence Of specified tree at re-
mote date is not necessarily conclu-
siye. Trees are often thus referred
10 as Acknowledged boundary marks,
when seems to invest them with an
authenticity which they do not really
possess. It 10 not question OF the
truth OF the record, but 1t is fact
that young trees have not seldom
been planted on the sites occupied by
famous predecessors and, standing,
as 1t were, in their shoes, have come
TO be taken for them.
A good illustration Of such a pos
sibility is afforded by the Rufus
stone in the New Forest. AS its
name implies and It's inscription rec
ords. this stone was erected on the
spot formerly covered BY the oak
from which the arrow which slew
William Rufus Is said to have
Kaanced- This tree In an advanced
state OF decay. was In existence In
khe eighteenth century, but was re-
placed IN 1745 by q stone which was
