"PIiANT TREES,"

Editor Tribune: The beautyand glory of a city are nice shadystreets. More especially would itbe the case out on the bleak prairiesof western Nebraska, and condi-

tions are now such that NorthPlatte can be made a perfect gemat a very moderate expense. Rivalirrigating canals run on the northand south sides of the city, andarrangements might be made withone of them to run a lateral acrossthe west side of the city so thatwater could be furnished for all thestreets running east and west forthe purpose of irrigating treesplanted along the side walks onboth sides of the streets.

The city might contract for treesand the owners of lots pay for treesin front of same. In a very fewyears we could have over a milesquare of shady streets. The treeswould make the streets cool andwould be a great protection againstthe spread of fire and the destruc-tion of tornados.

Now is the time lo make prepara-tion and next fall or spring havethe trees put out.

LABRADOR'S COAST.

Barren Shores, Rolling Sorgo and ManyIcebergs Malce It Dangerous.

The most northorly lighthouse on thecoast of this continent stands on Bolleislo, at the head of tho straits of thatnamo, a northeast of Newfound-lau- d.

By what freak of tasto it wascalled Belle islo I cannot say, for oventho old navigators had such a horror ofit that on their charts they marked itwith tho figure of a demon.

Tho morning the littlo mail steameron which I cruised "down ou the Lab-rador," as tho Newfoundlanders say,plunged and rolled it through thesurge the rugged mass of rock cronch-e- d

thero as if ready to seize its prey ofships and human lives. Tho surf, un- -

at our distance, around free reclining chairits base liko a long row of glisteningteeth. A huge iceberg had drifted iuand lay stranded at ono end of tho is-

land; far up on the rocks was tho light-house; on a below stood a littlehut, with provisions, for shipwreckedsailors; the gray morning mists madethese look heavy and sodden, and alto-gether this of Belle islo wastho most desolate sceno I had over be-

hold. Over our bow tho barren coast ofLabrador was faintly outlined, and as thelast lighthouso on tho continent drop-ped astern I felt that wo wero indeeddrawing away from civilization, andthis feeling was strengthened when, aswe turned our prow northward, wesighted tho vanguard of the seeminglyendless procession of huge drift-ing slowly down in single file from themysterious regions of tho north.

Wo had mot with single bergs alongthe Newfoundland coast, but off Labra-dor they a constant and unspeak-ably grand featuro in tho seawardview. I doubt if they can be seen any-where else except in arctic and antarcticwaters in such numbers, variety andgrandeur. Tho branch of tho gulf streamwhich pushes its way into tho Arcticocean has sufficient force left when it isreflected by tho frozen northorn boundary of that sea to send an icy currentdown along tho Labrador coast. Prac-tically all the bergs that break loosefrom the ice sheathed shores of Greenland aro borno southward by this current. One morning, when I went upondeck, I counted no less than 135 hugeones. Somo of wero groat solidblocks of ico; others wero arched with
