Tb height of th itump in the log
ring reg lona of th Sound puizle th
lew comar. it la from five to sita
feet from th ground to where tb
woodman baa plied hi ax. On ean
readily understand why It waa ex
pedient to cut abov tb bulging
aneea at th baae of th tree. But
wby did th chopper go. In ao many
Mtaea, three or four time aa high aa
aaneeaaaryP Ex -Governor Sample,
who ha at hla tongue' and th ex
planation for more itrange thinga In
Waahington than ba any other man,
-.ll how thia happened. To get
tbove tb bulging baa of th tree tbe
chopper had to hav aometblng to
itand on. Inatrad of taking shalr
or a atep-ladder or a platform, they
cut notchee in th tree, put in a nar
row eprlng-board with a clamp, bal
anced tbemaelvee upon that, aod plied
the axe. They were ambidextroua.
They chopped on one aide and then
on tne otner. "inrowtng down or
felling tbeae big tree, aa it ia called,
became an art The chopper began
by putting In their apring-boarda
three or four feet from the ground.
That waa enough to avoid the butt It
wa daring work to begin with. It
waa till more riaky to go a little
higher from the ground. Rivalry
lent the choppera up and up, until
often they would atand aa high aa fif
teen feet from the ground to chop. At
twenty feet the owners of the treea
protested. They could not afford to
ihrow away more than one elxteen
foot log to let the choppera risk their
necka in trying to outdo each other
in what waa foolish daring, la these
latter daya the law ia taking the place
of the axe, and the new stumps are
of more reasonable height
The theory of the ex-Governor'i
waa repeated Interrogatively to a
lumberman. He laughed and declined
to confirm or deny it But he told a
story. Said he: ;
A friend of mine waa out here some
I time ago, and he walked through th
timber eyeing these atumpa pretty
closely, aa if he waa trying to make
out why they were cut io high. All
at onee a light aeemed to dawn upon
him. He turned to me and aaid: 'I
thought you told me you didnt nave
any anow on the Sound f Look at
those stumps. See where the men
were standing when they cut all thia
timber. Ob! no! You don't have any
snow, do youf'" Con, St Louis
