"There goes one er th' goldarned things, George!" The speaker was a white-beoriled man fully 70 years of age find, from his appearance, evidently a fanner. The person addressed was a younger man, his high-heeled boots and red necktie also denoting the agriculturist. It was at the Morrison street bridge and just before Ave o'clock in the morn ing. The gnty night mist had not. yet lifted from tho river, but these tiwo men had risen from their bedn impelled by a curiosity to see a bicycle. "Yes, sir," answered the elder of the two, in response to a question, "we're out yere on this bridge ter see a bicycle critter neither of us has e.veo- seen afore. You see, we live In the moun tains back in Clatakanie, and bicycles don't come our way. "We come, up the river on the G. TV. Shaver, an' comin' up, George says for me: l op, aid yer ever see a oicycier an' I had to admit that I hadn't, altho' understand th' pesky things are plenty enough, judgin' from th' figures published in th' pnpers regard in' t h' output of th' factories buildin' them. But this is th' first tunc 1 ve bin tor town in nigh on 13 years, an' fer th' life of ine i kain't recollect seein' one of th' machines the.n. "So I jest asked th' purser where th' best place to catch sight of a bieyeln enrly in th mornin' was in Portland, an' he told me th bridge here ahead of th steamer. Well, 1 was that pes kered to see one that I routed George out so soon ns it was daylight, an' we've been standin on this bridge ever since wnitin.- fer a bicycle man ter coce along." Then, turning to his compan ion, the old man said: "Well, if I did rout yer out kinder early, ye're the most interested, George." "Yer bet I am!" George replied; ami then the younger man went on to tell what the bicytjle had done for the horse raiser and farmer, lie boa a band of some COO horses on the range, and 90 acres of oats. Five yearn ago these horses would average $25 jier head un broken, and he received 60 cents per bushel for the oats not used In getting his horses in condition for market. To day the horses enn hardly be given awny, and his oats bring 31 centa. And this he ascribes to the bicycls. And io the two men sat, perched on the bridge railing, watching, as the morning grew on, the Increased num ber of bicyclists crowing the bridge and jiouring out their anathemas on that "goldarned thing," the silent steed.

Among the sports of olden times the hunting clubs were prominent every where, says the Atlanta Constitution. In Camden county one of the most fa mous of clubhouses in this country was built at Bear Hammock and kept under the supervision of Gen. John Floyd. It was there that the Camden County Hunting club organized in 18112, held its meetings, made its rules and imposed its fines. The charter members of the club were Charles It. Floyd, Richard Floyd, Henry Floyd John Floyd, Ben Hopkins, J. II. Uil worth, James llolzendorf, John Holzendorf, Alexander Hodzendorf, I M; Nightingale, William lierrie and Henry du Uignon. Severul members joined afterward. The club dress wnM a scarlet jacket and black pantaloons and a fine of 500 copper caps waa im posed on Alexnder llolzendorf ui one meeting for not having on the reculit tion dress. No member was. to be ab sent from the meetings up Vkm by t;oiul excuse, and James HoUtrndorf was fined 1,000 copper co)s for one absent e. After the day's hunt, sometime wiMi the luck of 16 deer, an elegant dinner wss served before dispersing. The lfith rule, read: "Game Is con sidered by the club to be ilccr, bear, bogs, cows,bull, wildcats mid turkey."

It was. a patch of sand just out of the water, bait you ought to see the flocks Of sea fowl that nestled on it. They had to move out of the way to give us ! room to stay there and that was about all they would do. Their nests were everywhere and there were eggs in : abundance. We ate about a barrel of them every day during the 12 days we were there. Some of us got off in a Ixm and went to San Juan, in , Nicaragua, where we gat a vessel to go after those we left on the reef. Thar, vessel w-as commanded by William Lawrence, of Baith, who was killed by a man named Wilkinson while be was a policeman, there.

Indian Tree That Grow from Tree Tops. The cupey, or, ns it is sarcastically called in the English possessions, "the p.ttomey," Is one of the most curious as it is certainly the most picturesque denizen of the virgin forests of the West Indinn island, says London Tid-' Hits. - It belongs to tho pumsitical fam ily of trees or plants, but, terrible to relate, it invariably with the bases: ingratitude destroys all life in the un fortunate tree that cherishes It in Its early growth. The seeds ore borne on the wiugs- of the wind, and deposited on the branches of other trees, when they burst into roots, which are dropped toward the ground all around the "nurse." tree. In time these rootSTesch the ground and etrike Into the soil. From this moment the roots grow stronger and stronger until they re semble a lot of rope ladders thrown over the tree. Next the parasite sends down a great cord, which twines round the trunk of the supporting tree, at first as though in loving embrace, but It grows tighter and tighter, eventually ktirangling its lK'ticfuctor out of exist ence. The "nurse" tree t hus killed rot to decay, and from the irr.mene fibrous root of the destroyer now springs a gretit trunk, which ritt.'s high Into the air. When the rupry is full grown it presents n ningnilli ent spiHiteie, for the orrd-)ike roots rine often to 60 or 60 feet, and supiwjrt in niidnir the vast tree it elf. tie oiufnrlulile tVblle Traveling ' lo cool weather.
