So Far at Known, Twin Tree Is the Only One of Its Kind in the World. One of the mot remarkable freak of nature; If such It Is. ever dico-erf d i a twin tree, an oak and elm grown together, which Is found on the island occupied by the Cnited States arsenal at Itock Island. 111. The island in question Is formed by two branches of t lie Mississippi river and emnrjue

some two hundred acres. It is covered I r

with a luxuriant growth of oak. elm and various other species of trees, but the twin tree Is the only one of it kind on the Island, or anywhere else In the world, as far as is Known Py some cunous phenomenon, the trunks of the trees, which apparently were growing ide by side when saplings, have merged into a single bole to a height of seven or eight feet. At this height the individual trunks separate, each bearing its own peculiar nark formation and foliage, whereas the joint trunk seems to he a blend of both elm and oak bark. It has been estimated that the twin tree is over n hundred years old, and It Is possible that the Indians who once camped on the istand may have had .something to do. either by accident or design with the peculiar formation.
