Take no stock in Election dodges. AN INTERESTING FIGURE.

An interesting figure in the jubilee pro- cession at Londen was that of the Arcu- duke Francis Ferdinand, the heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne. It is only a few montus ago that this Prince was sup- posed to be in the very last stages of quick consuinption. His death was momeutariy expected, and so certain was :t thought to be that his brother, bated alike by the Emperor and the people of the Empire, was clficially recoguized as the future ruler. Asa last resort, Ferdinand went io Egypt, and there the climate seems to have worked something not much less than @ miracle, tor, as be rode through the streets of London, there were few amongthe scores of princes who bore themselves more vigorously than he or looked more likely to attain old age. Ferdinand, who was born in 1863, is one of the richest men in Europe, as he inherited, while still a child, all the immense wealth of the Wste branch of the Hapsburg family. Lis father was the most contirmedof Ultramontanes, the Archduke Karl Ludwig, who died last year and his mother was a daughter of ‘** Bomba ” of Naples, Thus he can hardly be said to have started life uuder the best of auspices. Hewas only 8 years old wher his mother died, -yet his father straigbtway handed him over to the care of the Jesuits, with strict injunctions that he should be brought up untainted by this wicked nineteenth century. Once his own masier, a reaction set in, and he rushed into every kind of dissipation.

Rame of the Ulant Trees That Are Found In Caiifornia,

In the natioual parks and forest pre ecrves of California the big trees are by and greatest There are two vari- sempervirens, the

far the mest interesting

natural features. eties—nuamely, Sequoia

redwood,

the tree which has furnished most of the redwood lumber of commerce, aud the Sequoia gigantea, from which a

compuratively small amount of similar lumber also been made. The for- mer is the smaller variety and grows on the foothills along the coast. The latter attains a considerably larger growth, is, more strictly speaking, the ‘*big tree’’ of California, and is seldom found at a lower altitude than 5,000 feet.

Seattered along the extent of the Sicr- ra Nevadas from north to south are many distinct and separate groups or groves of Sequoia gigantea. These are generally known by names significant of locality, as, for instance, ‘‘Calaver- as,’’ ‘‘Tuolumne,’’ ‘‘Mariposa’’ and ‘*Fresno,*’ names of the counties in which the groves so called are situated. The Tuolumne grove is in the Yosemite park, and the Mariposa near by. This latter is the one most frequently visited by tourists and contains the ‘‘Wawona”’ —a tree with a hole burned in its base, through which the stage road runs and four horse stages are driven without difficulty—and the ‘‘Grizzly Giant,’’ one of the largest trees in the world.

has

The stately grandeur of these enor- |

mous and lofty trees is se impressive that it seems quite fit and natural that some of the larger ones should have been individualized and honored with distin- guished titles. Nearly every state in the Union and every distinguished gen- eral of the civil war has a namesake among them. The ‘‘General Grant,’’ in the General Grant park, and the ‘‘Gen- eral Sheridan’’ of the ‘“‘Giant forest’’ (situated in the Sequoia park) are indi- viduals of the largest size. It is difficult to determine just which of the big trees is the largest, but these two and the ‘Grizzly Giant’’—the gnarly base of any one of which will exceed 30 feet in diameter—are probably the biggest trees yet discovered.

The trees often grow in such inacces- sible mountain retreats that some of the territory covered by them has never yet been thoroughly and systematically ex- plored. Outside the lands reserved by the government a California lumber company owns several thousand acres cf these trees—enough to last 40 years, cutting many millions of feet per year. —Harper’s Weekly.

A THRILLING EXPERIENCE.

Showing What a Shotgun Cam Do Ina Load of Hay.

‘‘What was the most exciting experi- ence I ever had?’’ repeated Clarence Haight at the Olympic Gunelub. “I think it occurred last summer, when I was hunting doves up in Sonoma coun-

ty. Now, shooting doves is not par- ticularly exciting or perilous, but

this was one of the hottest experiences I ever had.

‘‘T had been traveling all day with a big bag, and was pretty well tired out when I struck the country road and started for home. It was a good four miles’ walk, and I was pretty well pleased to see a big wagon lead of hay approaching. The rancher gave me per- mission to ride, so I scrambled up on top, lay dewn on the sweet, new mown hay and went swaying and swinging down the road. I was just dozing off when bang! went my shotgun. I had forgotten to take the cartridges out of it, and something had pressed the trigger. The horses gave a jump, and the driver rolled off into the ditch.

‘*Then I discovered that my gun had sect fire to the hay, and I thought it was about time for me to escape. The horses were tearing along the road as hard as they could run, but I clambered for the side of the load and slid for the road. The tail of my stout hunting coat caught on the top of a sharp standard, and there I hung to the careening wag- on that threatened to upset and dump a

load of burning hay on me at every | §

turn of the road.

‘*The fire was crackling and burning fiercely, and already I could feel the flames. Still the horses ran, and still my coat held me fast to that seething mass of flames. My trousers commenced getting hot, and then I found my coat was on fire. The next moment the loose cartridges in my pockets commenced ex- ploding from the heat, and then I smelled my doves broiling.

*‘t had just made up my mind that all was over, when the tail of my coat burned off and I was thrown into a ditch full of water beside the road. [ did not stop to see what became of the hay and the horses, nor of the rancher, but cut straight across that field for That, gentlemen, was the mest thrilling experience of my life.’’°—New York Press.
