10 feet in circumference at breast-
high and 95 feet high. It is clear cf

more years. Its unusually large size
is attributed to the favorable condi-
tions under which it developed. It
stands on fertile soil near a small
mountain stream.

Fire in Outside Toilet Proves Disas-
trous.
An outside toilet at the home of
Elmer Bryan, near Milesburg, caught
fire shortly before eleven o’clock on
Wednesday morning and before the
flames were extinguished they had
consumed Mr. Bryan's garage and the
small barns on the properties of John
Shultz and Fred Dyke. In Bryan’s
garage was an almost new Ford car
belonging to his son-in-law, Joseph
Fisher, which was also burned. Neith-
er of the barns had anything of con-
sequence in them but they were good
buildings and their destruction is con-
siderable of a loss to the owners. The
