LONDON, ,lan. 20. In accordance
with his expressed wish, the Into

Ilerore the public reading ot the

Tho attendance at the abbey was
a remarkable ono. Those present
Included representative of tho royal

cabinet members, Ambassador ot
America, alter Page, practically the
entire diplomatic corps nmt other
notables of many different sorts.
I.ntcr thousands lined tho streets,
through which tho funeral procession
passed from the abbey to Hlghgate
I churchyard. Tho hearso was an open
one, and only twenty carriages fol
I lowed It. The Journey from West
minster Abbey to Hlghgnte Is a long
one. The Abbey services began nt
11:30, and It was 2 p. in. before tha

CUT IE FOOT BRIDGE
Choice of Species
The um to which wo mo to put
the tree, and the surrounding ill
which it will bo placed, will affect
our choice rtf the j.peele. Nursery
men tiiul landscape gimleners make
u di-tinctiim between "ornninentaU"
mnl shade trees, while street tret)
eoinmitsioiuirs rcooguuo that l
hIuuIo tree mc not adapted to
street ue. tl Would fur exceed tho
limit of thN dNouioii to more than
brieflv mention some of the ndvuii-
tapes nnd dimlnvtnnges of n fow of
our nutive species for thco uo.
All conifers such as the pines it ml
firs mu-t he considered ns ornn
mental vather thuii shade trees, nnd
none nre ndnptcd for street planting.
The nyre be-t H-eil grouped nt the
entrance of n drive or to relieve the,
monotony of n broad stretch of lawn'
on n country o-lnte. The western
vellow pine i seen often in .Medfonl
where It bus survived the groivjh of
the city nround it. When young it
is not un ungraceful tree though
when it attains maturity it looses its
ehnnn. It is not to be recommended
for planting for ornnmeutul pur
mes. The Douglas fir can be sue-
ecssfwllv crown but it is like tho
yellow pine, n forest or timber tree
rather than mi ommucntnl. In youth
it can be iwd effectively on n coun
try e-tate lint so large a tree re
quires plenty of room to show to ml
vnutnge. Another common conifer
On our lawns is the incense cedar. It
is effectively ued on large lawns.
rnforlunntely it is susceptible to a
utt fungus the spores of which aie
eniried n ilistnuee of live miles on
the wind, mnl which is destructive
to pears, especially tho Winter N'el
is. For this reason the incense
eednr should never be planted in the
vnlley or within five miles of mi
orehiud.
There are three luitive oaks which
can successfully be used for plant
ing. The native oak is u slow grow
ing tree. It is uluiot inuiriiihly
rotted badly before it lciichxs a mod
erate sue, and is very susceptible to
the injury of mistletoe which will
eventunlly eiipplo. weaken and even
kill it. A much better tree is the
Cuhforniti black oak which also oc
cur abuudaiitlv in tho foothill. This
tree is less susceptible to mistletoe,
attains n huge size, is not so liable
to rot, and has n much more grace
ful form. The ennyon live oak i
very rarely a host to the mistletoe
ami i n graceful tree. The green
leave remain on the tree the year
long mnl for u large lawn it would
he a very pleading tree. All of the
oak, however, have n tap loot which
is ver liable to be torn when dig
ging forest trees. This retard their
growth and litis given rise to the
prejudice that oak-, are necessarily
slow of growth. N'urserv stock is
preferable if obtainable. Or the tires
i-iiii be grown from aconis in a homo
nursery ami after uultiwitiou for n
year or more transplanted lt their

PLENTY OF ITER
1 FOR PLACER MINING
(Gold Hill New,.)
With winter mins still prevailing
nnd heavy snnvs in the hills, the
tributary creeks and streams of the
Itoguc river in this district are sjvol
leu to u point that brings joy to the
heart of tho placer miner. Since the
last of December the various mines
of Sardine, Galls, Foots creek nnd
numerous other smaller streams have
been continuously worked. The Hluek
Channel, one of the largest of local
placer projierties, situated on Foots
creek, is working a double shift, nnd
Superintendent Hen Harrison coufi
den'ly anticipates one of thu largest
clean-ups of recent years. While
sufficient rain has fallen to kcei) the
creeks tit u working mark, prospect
ors along the river bars say that the
Itoguu must rise still higher to de
posit new gold bearing gravel in
Oimntities to pay for tho working.
Thq usual winter influx of aged ar
i ouauts, prospectors of the good old
golden days of placer mining, is
hcatlered along the river, with pick
and pan striving for n grub stake
nnd still looking forward to tho ''big
strike."
From Hogue Itiver Argus.)
Just about the lowest, most con
temptible whelp who disfigures tho
face of the earth is the iersou who
will endanger the lives of n dozen
innocent children in onler that thoy
might spit their spite out on some
one else.
Such a pup got loose on Evans
creek Tuesday night nnd sawed three
cnble.s off on the foot bridge that
rosses the creek from the Green to
the Mugerle places. The next morn
ing six children crossed it and came
to town to school. loiter two more
came to the bridge, snw that some
thing was wrong with the bridge, but
innocence thought it nil right and
came across, but storied and told
Dan JDigerlc, who nt once investigat
ed the damage.
On examination it was found that
two cables on the top and one on the
bottom had been cut off with a line
snw, nil on the up-stream side, nnd
it appears as though they were scar
ed away before doing enough dam
age to let the bridge fall.
The bridge is made of Pnge fence
wire stayed up with four (pmrter
inch cables. Two of the.-o cables
ami one of the mnin stnys of the
fence wire were tho ones cut.
What an animal of that nature
can get out of risking the lives of
children that way is more than we
can understand.
