St. Louis, Mnr. -Arboriculturists,
licviug that they have found in the
Catalpa Spcciosa n quick-growing
and valuable timber with which
they can clothe with foliage the
barren wastes of the world, have
secured space for exhibit in the
Department of Forestry at the
World's Fair to be installed by the
International Society of Arboricul
ture of which Mr. John P. Brown
of Conuersvlllc, Ind., is .ecretary.
A wedge taken lrom a sixteen-year-old
tree near Hagetstown,
Ind., shows the remarkable growth
and fnm character of the wood.
This tree was twenty-one inches in
diameter and from its trunk could
be made five ordinary railroad cross
ties. From root to limb the body
is straight and regular and it is
the quality of the timber is such '
that it expels its sap soon after be
ing cut and absorbs from the s il
instead antiseptic substances that
give tlic timber a remarkable power j
ofreMsting decay. The value of
the wood will be illustrated in ninny
ways in the exhibit under Mr.
lirown's direction in the Forestry
building at the World's Fail.
Even the desk he will use will be
made of Catalpa Speciosa, as it
makes handsome furniture, having
much the same graimns butternut. '

When William Jennings Uryau
I was traveling over the country dur
ing the last campaign, says the
Boston Post, he was met in the
state of Maine by the State Demo
cratic Committee, which inquired
at once what arrangements it should
make for taking the presidential
candidate in a tour around the state.

maturity the trees reach a height
of too feet and measure six feet fn

The value of the Catalpa wood is
very great and its uses varied. It
is susceptible to a fine polish for the
inside furnishing of houses and
possesses the quality of great dura
bility, making it also available for
railway cross-ties, telegraph poles
and other severe uses. ,
For nearly a century interest has
been taken in its culture, seed
from its cigar-shaped pod being
sown in the nursery and the shoot
transplanted in its first year to
hillside or plain where it thrives
with wonderful success. Originally
confined to an area of less than too
square miles along the Wabash
river in Illinois and Indiana, and
known as the "cigar tree" It has
been found to be adapted to every
portion of the world. It is success

It-prospers in the semi-arid regions
of Utah, Colorado and New Mexico
as well as in the Wabash river
bottoms.
When the first president Harrison
went to Indiana in about 1818 he
found the Catalpa tree growing in
abundance along the Wabash river
and was at once struck by its beauty.
The Indians and early settlers had
wondered at its thriftitiess and stories
were told of the rapid growth of
forests. Specimens were sent to

' Mr. Bryan counted over the
members of his party, and then
added: "And then there are my
eleven boys. Don't forget them.
I want them to have as good ac
commodations as I have."
The committee looked puzzled.
It had not heard that Mr. Bryan
possessed such a tremendous fam
ily; besides it seemed very poor
taste for a presidential candidate to
take all his children on a campaign
ing trip. "Your boys?" repeated
the chairman of the committee.
"Yes, eleven of them," replied
Mr Bryan. "The eleven news

The committee smiicd "I guess

man. "No, sir," said Mr. Bryan.
"Those fellows need rest and com
fort a good deal more than I do.
They're all tired out. If they go
into one of the rear coaches I must
go with them."
So during the trip through Maine

achieved without opposi
