SYRUP FROM BOX ELDERS
THEY ABE SAID TO BE RE
LATED TO THE MAPLE,
The Box Elders Throw Off a 8pray
of a Sticky Substance Which Is
'Very Sweet to the Taste, and
Many Have Observed It for the
first Time this Year.
Recently as the writer was stand
ing near by a box cider treo ho no
tl"ed what seemed to be a mist fal
ling. As the .sky was partly cloudy
lie thought a light drizzling rain had
.started. But on passing to the west
Of the tree nothing of the kind was
visible. .The wind, what little there
was, was blowing from that dlrec
tion. This looked rather peculiar,
but as there was a possibility that
the falling substance might be dust
pcrticles, started from the treo by
the breeze, nothing more was
thought of it at the time.
A few evenings after, a buggy
wMfch had been washed preparatory
to receiving a coat of paint, was put
rjider the tree so as to be in the
Bhade next day, while the work was
being done. But when the amateur
painter started in on what he ex
pected would be one of the finest
jobs of painting ever done ,in the
state of Oregon, he found that some
other painter had been ahead of him
It was not a good job, either. The
vehicle looked as though five million
ol flies had roosted on it over night,
As the buggy had been placed there
late in the evening, when flies had
settled for the night, and it was
too early for them to be about in the
morning, and as there were as yet
only a few dozen of flies on the

ptcmises, it was plain the work
could not bo laid on the flies.
Before applying the paint it was
necessary to respongo the rig, tho
sticky Btuft coming off readily. Tho
amateur then applied himself dllli
gently to the task and was laboring
away strenuously toward the close
of the day, when ho noticed the same
phenomenon that had attracted his
attention til day before. In fact, it
30hied more strange than before, for
there was not a cloud to be seen any
where, and only a light breeze from
tho west Tho falling moisture was
slightly more dense than when first
seen. That it was moisture falling
ihere could bo no doubt this time.
And it was falling from the tree,
the leaves of which, when applied to
to the tongue, had a sweet Byrup
Ilko taste. Tho box elder is a spe
cies of, maple. Whether the Eweet
moisture collected on the leaves as
dew or whether the leaves ex
uded it, is a question some one bet
ter posted than the writer may be
able to answer. Tho writer has
never seen anything like this in this
country before, and only once any
thing like it in any other country.
While on a visit to Western Penn
sylvania In 1875, a sticky substance
in globule form collected on tho
large chestnut trees which abound in
that section. As the chestnut tree
Is- not even remotely related to the
maple, tho same theory of the box
elder's relationship cannot apply: In
stead of the matter falling in a spray
from the chestnuts, as from the box
elders, it fell in largo drops after ac
cumulating on the leaves. The na
tives called it honey dew.
Fined Them $25 Apiece.
Dick and Mike Pierce were yester
day tried In Judge Fltz Gerald's
court on the charge of larceny and
were fined $25 each, which was paid.
These are the young men arraigned
Monday on the charge of taking a
