It is hard to find out wetly the particulars, because the ordinary mem- hers do not know them, and the particu- lar members will not diyulge them; but it is certain thatat a rehearsal whunflm affaivs of the Wagner socicty were troduced for discussion, a face was vir tually slapped,and the blow has knocked out the whole organization. The uni- verse is not shaken by this shock, but it makes our best society talk, all the same.

Her parents were honest, but her father had never earned her respect, or the right to govern her, because of his drunkenness, while her mother was de- seribed as too spiritless to do anything to better the family condition. *Me used to \ml. on airs wid me,"” she . “but I licked der nonsense out of him before 1 w; s fifteeng yearsold.” Her not, in, and I didn’t.

Itisa fortunate thing foranew country when it can produce wool and r during the time that must necessurily clapse before the slower in- dustries of agriculture and manufacture can establish themselves, and this good fortune has fallen to the lot of western Australia to a marked degree. A la part of the southwest district of the col- ony. between Perth and King George s sound, is covered with forests of enor- mous timber of & most desirable kind. One of the complaints most commonly heard from travelers in Australia, who have an eye for the picturesque, is that the scenery is N'udu ed terribly monoto- nous by the universal presence of the eubnlyptus or “gum tree,” as it is com- monly called. And the certatnly good ground for the complaint. Botanists tell us of an immense m- ber of different varicties of the tree, and some of them hdve very marked characteresties, but all have foliage of the somewhat monotonous bluish tint that is so well known. All of their bavk instead of periodically shedding the ‘h- wes, and in all of them the s hang down edgeways, so that afford but little shade to the lu less wanderer, who is compelled to see shelter under their branches from the scorching rays of an Australian sun. They all have oue other peculinrity, and that is one which, curio nough, they share with many human beings. They have a constantand unquenchable thivst, and they have a power of finding out the nearest place at which to satisfy it that is a little short of miraculous. The roots will stretch huncreds of yards in great snake-like lengths to a well, aud when they have ached it either the well or the tree must go. It is, of course, this quality m the tree that makes it so _invaluable for getting rid of miasma and chills and fever urising from damp ground—uq ity which has secured for it an even warmer welcome on the deadly Cam- lumt pagna around Rome than it hus véceived in this country. Some of t pse eucalypti grow 10 an of state forests for the o olony of Vi toria stated in an official report of his that there were large tracts of country in that colony over which the trees av- eraged from 250 to 300 feet in height, mostly straight as an arvow, and with but Yew branches. One fullen tree measured with the tape 435 feet to the place wheve its top had been broken off, and here it wus three feet 1n diameter. It is estimated that this tree must, before it fell, have measured at least 500 feet, and it must undoubtedly have been the highest tree yet known to man. It measured eighteen feet in di- ameter at o height of five feet from the ground. Many other trees measured twenty feet in diameter, but these were not as a rule over 300 feet 1n height, Other trees are recorded which meas- ured 365 feet and thereabouts. These enormous eucalyptus Victoria are of a different var from the eucalyptus collossen, commonly known as the karri tree of Western Au llllllx\ of which, unfortunately, nomeas. ents are at hand, It issaid, how- er, by those who have seen the big trees of both colonies, that there is not much to choose between them, and a former governor of Western Australia has left it on record that he found one tree which measured 130 feet to its first branch.
