I one of the few persons who showed up to see the last of the tree, and he helped the men load it on the truck. Ever since the tree first fell there, has been a guard placed at the scene to prevent any of the wood being carried away. During the day the guard was a policeman, but at night Thomas E. Hughes, an employe of the Park Department, took the job from dusk until 1 o'clock in the morning, when he was relieved by a patrolman. Hughes was on hand this morning to see the last of the stump he had guarded for the past week.

He said he was surprised at the interest of the passers-by and the eagerness of people to obtain a memento of the old tree. Usually" parties in automobiles or pedestrians stopped and looked the place over, but when they saw there was a watchman on guard simply went on their way. But one woman offered Hughes $10, he said, if he would sell her a piece of the elm. Of course, he refused, but it gave some idea of the sentimental atchment to this old tree for anyone to be willing to pay $10 for a small bit of it. i i mm Dolan.

IT BRINGS HIM ON THE RUN An spple day doesn't keep the doctor Sway if it happens to be an unripe W. br BsU SyndJeste. Uc The By ROBERT L. RIPLEY Speaking of gameness and when one does it is usually fn connection with boxing or football or some such strenuous pastime why it occurs to me that thlv laudable quality knows no bounda. At present there 13 ft world's billiard' championship undtf way In New York where there Is as much courage nhown each day as there is In a prize ring.

Flnt Fleor rather far-fetched to compare billiards with boxing, doesn't it? Gameness Is not merely a matter of a slam on the chin. If you think that Hoppe, Schaefer, Cochran, Horeman. Hageuiacher. and f'onti do not require courage as pure that demanded In the prize ring, are mistaken. It takes courage to execute a difficult shot tnat calls for delicacy of touch, coordination of jbuscIi; and mentality, at a crucial moment waen an error ot tb slightest fraction of an inch means lh loss of the match.

It Is instinct for a man to get up when knocked down. Half the times a boxer Is knocked down he Is in a dased condition and no pain. Willard. for instance, was beaten in a terrible manner by Dempsey at Toledo, but he said after the tight that he was so that Jack's blowtj did not hurt him partlcu-larly. Courage Is as much a matter st mind as oil tuutoclu.
