Pear- Tree That Crumblee Into Powder When It Is Handled, Some of the curious trees that grow on the pampas of Argentina are interestingly described by M. Georges Clemenceau in his “South America Today.” One at least— the ombu— is so queer as to be al most uncanny. “The ombu is the marvel of the pampas, the only tree which the lo cust refuses to touch. For this rea son it has been allowed to grow freely, although) not even man has found a way to utilize what the voracious insects decline. For the ombu prides itself on being good for nothing. It does not even lend it self to making good firewood. It is only to look at. But that is suffi cient. Imagine an object resembling the backs of antqdiluvian monsters, mastodons or elephants, lying in the shade of a great mass of sheltering foliage. Heavy folds in the gray rind denote a growing limb, a round ed shoulder, a gigantic head half concealed. These are the tremen dous roots of the ombu, whose de light is to issue forth from the soil in the form of astonishing objects. “Then you turn your attention to the trunk and find it hollow, with a crumbling bark. The fingers sink into the tree, meeting only the re sistance that would be offered by a thin sheet of paper. And now fine powdery scales of a substance that surveillance or allowed to go free.— | should be wood, but, in fact, is in- The K nd That Were Issued Time of Louie XVI. The mysterious cards of the Count, de Vergennes each contained a brief history in cipher of those to whom they were given. De Vergennes was Louis XVL'e minister of foreign af fairs, and when strangers of a sus picious character were about to en ter France he issued to them these strange cards, which acted as pass ports, and were also intended to give information concerning the bearer without his knowledge. In the first place, its color indi cated the nationality of the man who carried i t The person’s age, approximately, was told by the shape of the Card. A fillet around the border of the card told whether he was a bachelor, married or a wid ower. Dots gave information as to his position and fortune, and the expression of his face was shown by a decorative flower. The stranger’s religion was told by the punctuation after his name. If he was a Catholic it was a period, if a Jew a dash, if he was a Luther an a semicolon and no stop at all indicated him a nonbeliever. So a man’s morals, character and appearance were pointed out by the pattern of his passport, and the au thorities could tell at a glance whether he was a gamester or a preacher, a physician or a lawyer, and whether he was to be put under Exchange. - The Antiquity of Coal. It is thought that the earliest reference to coal is that found in the writings of Aristotle and of Theophrastus,, who lived ah^ut 238 B. C. There is evidence that coal was used in England as early as the year Mrs. E. Payne is visiting at Quaker- j 8 , 5 2 .

Record was Democratic good as it was before. The North Hempstead appointed the official paper. Frederic N. Watriss, attorney for the Board, gave his opinion that the Board has no legal right to correct as-, sessments for personal tax of Gerard Beckman, as Mr. Beekman did not ap pear on grievance day. He was as sessed for $60,000 and he claims the amount should have been $33,000. The time of making up the tax levy was extended from December 16 to January 16. The following bills were audited and ordered paid, notwithstanding the recommendations of the County Comp troller: The North Hempstead Record, printing for the Board of Elections, $2617.44; Henry and James Crocker, freight on gravel, $158.76, and Barber Asphalt Company, for asphalt, $3311.86. While wrestling with some boy the inhabitants a charter authoriz ing them to mine for it. The Chinese knew of and used coal in the thirteenth century. The earliest reference to coal in Belgium is assigned to the year 1198, when a friends on Tuesday Clifford Johnson, blacksmith at Liege is said to have son of Mr. and Mrs. Mansfield John- been the first in the kingdom to em- son, fell and broke his collar bone, j pi0y ^ a8 fuel. He was attended by Dr. Steele. Paris received its first coal from During the past week there has been i Newcastle in 1520. In Scotland two surprise parties held in Baldwin. One was held at the home cf Miss Grace Ilseman on Milburn Avenue on Thursday evening and (he other was on Miss Nellie Combs on Park Avenue Monday evening. Both parties were well attended and good times reported. On Monday Drs. Steele and Kice performed an operation on Mrs. Richard Carman.

They crumble away into an impalp able dust, which is carried away by the breeze before you have time to examine it. Now you have the se cret of the ombu. The wood evapo rates in the open air. At the same time there spring from its strange roots young shoots of the parent tree. Since it is impossible to burn the nonexistent you cannot obvious ly have recourse to the ombu to cook your luncheon. Here is an ex ample in the vegetable world of u paradox, a tree which is utterly useless. “The palo borraeho, on the other hand, is extremely useful, although not without d touch of capricious ness. Its strange trunk, strangled in a collar of roots and bulging in the middle part, bristles with in numerable points, short and sharp, which prevent all undue familiarity. “The trunk, if tapped with a cane, returns a hollow sound. The tree is, in fact, empty, needing only to be cut into lengths to give man all he needs for a trough. The Indian ! squaw uses it to wash her linen, I and the wood, exposed to the double I action of air and water, becomes ns | hard as cement. The unripe fruit, the size of a good apple, furnishes a white cream, which supplies the natives with a savory breakfast. I^aier, when the fruit conies to ma turity, it bursts under the sun’s rays into a large tuft of silky cot ton. The exceedingly fine thread produced by this tree is too short to be spun, but the Indians and many of the Europeans turn it to account in many ways.” Widening of Hoffman Boulevard A topic of interest to resident* of Long lelet,d in general as Well aa resi dents of Queens and Jto aetomobllista everywhere ie the plan the City of New York to widen Hoffman Boule vard, in Queena to 200 «4eet, which, when carried out will make tbia high way one of the finest In the world. Hoffman Boulevard ia a merger of a road that baa always borne that name and Thomson Avenue. On the official map both names have been obliterated and the new designation for the com bined thoroughfare ie Queena Boule vard. Commisaionera of estimate and assessment in the proceeding for ac quiring property for widening the highway to 200 feet were recently ap pointed by the Supreme Court in the pereone of Leander B. Faber, a well known Jamaica lawyer; Harry P. Gol- wicks, a preminent newspaper man of Queena. and John E. Connolly, brother of the President of Queens. Among the traffic advantages of the widened boulevard will be a trolley road that will be operated between Manhattan and the city’s easterly line ■t Roeedale by. way of Queensboro Bridge. The •tracke are now being laid on Queena (Hoffman) Boulevard, and the name of the operating com pany ie the Manhattan and Queens Traction Corporation. It succeeds to the franchise rights of the South Shore Traction Company and of the Manhat tan and Jamaica Railway Company. The new trolley road will connect with the Long Island Railroad at Jamaica and it will link Queens and Nassau County to uptown Manhattan by trol ley.
