It is almost a forest in itself, and serves for a complete sylvan palace on the largest setae. Rarely growing more than '70 feet high, its branches ex- tendhorizontally, supported by a trunk which has a girth greater, it is believed, than that of any other known tree. One of these extraordinary trees was found on measurement to be 40 feet in diameter. The age of another --counting the concentric rings—was found to be 5,000 years at the very least, PRE GINGERBREAD TREE. The Hyphaene thebaica, a epeoies of palm 25 or 30 feet in height, growing in Egypt, Abyssinia, Nubia, and Arabia produces its fruit in long clusters, each of which contains from one to two hun- dred. These fruits are of an irregular form, of a rich yellowish brown color, "and are beautifully polished. In upper Egypt they form part of the food o1 the poorer classes of inhabitants, the part eaten (being the fibrous, mealy husk, which tastes alinnet exactly like gingerbread, hence 'the popular name of gingerbread true ie.

It is related of Tcherevin that one night, as he lay extended in the dark in front of the Czar's bedroom, a figure approached. Tcherevin, believ- ing the .man whom he saw had designs qn the life of his sovereign, sprang to his feet and leveled a pistol at the in- truder, who simultaneously pointed one at the head of Tchereein, each demand- ing ,to know why the other was there. Their voices revealed them to each other. The man was Alexander II. himself, who, having a hunting dread of assassination, was on a round of per- sonal inspection of the palace. OBEYED INSTRUCTIONS.

Travellers who take their bicycles along with them may not be pleased to learn that in future the railway companies propose charging for bicy- des carried as baggage. An agree- ment has leen entered into between the different Canadian roads, to go into effect on the 18th inst., and it is announced that each bicycle or tricy- cle will be charged for the same as for fifty pounds of excess baggage. They may be checked through and collection made the same as baggage, except where a transfer by waggon is involv- ed at junction points, unless specially arranged for, and except to points on or over the 1 ines whose rules permit their being checked to local points only. They will be checked only for passengers accompanying them and presenting their passenger tickets. The charge will be separate from and have no connection with the charge for any excess baggage. It is understood that the lowest charge will be 25 cents, and the railway com- panies ompanies do not assume any responsibility for damage. The railways in the agreement are the Canadian Pacific, Canada Atlantic, Erie and Huron, Grand Trunk system, Kings- ton and Pembroke, Michigan Central, Quebec Central, and Toronto, Hamilton and Buffalo. This leaves the Interco- lonial Railway out. Another very important change has also been made in regard to the charge for baggage in storage at railway sta- tions, which interests the entire travel- ling public. A new schedule of storage charges on baggage has also been cle - . cided upon, to go into effect on the '18th inst., as follows:—First twenty-four hours, free; second twenty-four hours, hours, 10 cents; no charge for Sundays 25 cents; each subsequent twentytfour or Dominion holidays. Heretofore the charge on baggage has been 10 cents a week; but the railway authorities claim that a portion of the travelling public have taken advantage of this to leave their baggage an unreasonable time in the hands of the railways, and that the new tariff will have the effect of mak- ing people remove their baggage at once. tier Their of Ba„• Mil EN OF SCl Cu.

Mrs. Clyne was interviewed at their residence and said: ' Mr. Clyne was in a very bad state, his urine almost black with sediment and he was expecting to have another opera- tion such as ho had before. The pain in his back was at times very severe and kept him from doing any work. Mr. Clyne got a box of Doan's Kidney Pills at J. R.

A number of representatives of the big Chicago meat 'packing houses, and also some American railway men, are said to be hiding in Canada to avoid being summoned to appear before the Federal Grand Jury, which is at pre- sent sitting iu Chicago. At the sitting there was to be investigated the charge that the Grand Trunk had violated, the Inter -State Commerce law, by grant- ing exceptional privileges to certain meat packing firms, andthus secur- ing the bulk of the business away from the other railroads. When an attempt was made to subpoena the necessary witnesses,• it was discovered that they bad left the city, and the statement was made that they had gone to Cana- da. Some of t•.he • Grand Trunk officials are also wanted on the other side'' to explain the details of the alleged deal between the Grand. Trunk and Swift & Co., but it is not expected that any of them will make their appearance in Chicago until the Grand Jury has risen. The fact is that, there, is con- siderable jealousy on the part of some of the American roads because the Grand Trunk has recently secured the lion's share of the dressed meat trade; and this is given as the reason for the charges made against the road.

FOREST FIRES IN NOVA SCOTIA. T'asl Sections or 'l•intberland Burned— Several Villages in Danger. A despatch from Halifax says :—Ow- ing to the unusually protracted drought forest fires are burning east, west and north of Halifax and doing immense da,nage to farms and timberland. The body of the fire to the west of the city is enormous, and a vast section of woodland is doomed. On Friday the house and barns of Henry Robinson, seven miles from Halifax, were burned and the inmates escaped only with their lives. The fire approached close to the Ar- cadia Powder Mills at Waverly, and the fear of its reaching the dynamite store brought. out hundreds of people with buckets and vessels of all descrip- tions. Trees were felled and the ground kept wet around. An explosion would have produced fearful results. The fire is very bad in the forests Reports have been received that the large residence of Major Montague, a retired army officer, near Montague ,Told mines, has been burned. The fam- ily bad to flea through the back door. The barns and live stock were also' de- stroyed. A farm house near by, occu- pied by one Bell, was also wiped out. The fire, now threatens several vil- lages east and west, and everybody is praying for rain, of which there are as yet no signs - The private park of Mr. Sandford IFleming on the Northwest Arm has been swept by fire and the summer house burned.
