He did not tumble, as it were, until the night watchman got a Babcock lire ex tinguisher and played on him. Very likely it was, ‘•Sister, wnat are the wild waves saying?” Anyway, he staggered Into his room, and although he could l»enr the au dience outside in the wild, tumultuous en core. he refused to come before the cur tain, hut locked his door and sobbed him self to sleep.

Washington, March 11.—William A.

A bitterness had arisen between the stalwarts and half breeds, and there were connected with these cases . men of extreme training. I said at the time that there might be a resort to violence. Such was the impression then on my mind. My suggestion for a moment touched the Pres ident, but he responded that there was no danger. The bitterness of feeling was so strong that I would not have been sur prised had it carried itself against the Post master-General and the Attorney-General. I don’t think I used at that interview the language recently placed In my lips by Mr. James, but stated in substance what I have given yon. The idea I had was that the feeling of bitterness was so strong that it might owrate on the minds of some of those involved to such an extent os to lead to violence-that It might assume the form of desperation.” "Did you believe that Guiteau had asso ciates?^ Mr. Springer asked. "The inference I dreworginally was that the shooting of the President was not the result of the individual action of Guiteau, and I have never become fully satisfied that that inference is incorrect, A person came to me, saying that Guiteau, accom panied by two or three persons, was in his establishment seeking a pistol. He did not know the persons accompanying Gui teau. I had a consultation with Mr. Cork- hill, the district attorney, concerning an Investigation that might lead to the dis covery of others associated with Guiteau. Immediately after the assassin was incar cerated he was taken in charge by the dis trict-attorney and others, and very few were allowed interviews with him.” "Did the parties who took cliaige of Guiteau give any declared purpose for so doing?” asked Mr. Milliken. "Nothing hat that Guiteau was individ ually re-ponsible. Shortly after I entered the employ of the government l had an idea of reckless feeling on the part of those in the star route cases that might be car ried into practice.” "Was trie President included with those against whom there was a hitter feeling?' "In part,” the witness replied. NUPTIALS OF THE ROSE. How Varieties Have Been increased by Hybridising. Philadelphia Press. The mo st peculiar of all flowers is the rose. It has its thousands of devoted and skillful worshipers as a garden flower, blooming in summer, and clinging to trel lis or pillar, or trained to cover the ground with a mass of color. But its widest em pire is in society, where it reigns pre-emi nent, queenly in it* beauty, and bestowing its royal grace upon the fair ladies who wear it. The variety of roses is almost endless, and incalculable time and labor have been expended to develop new kinds, which shall combine fragrance, color, form and profusion of bloom. It is a sin gular fact, however, that not until very re cently have records beeh kept of the pa rentage of roses. There is excellent au thority for saying that the exact origin of all but about a dozen of the beautiful va rieties which have sprung into being with in the last fifty years is unknown.

When I was a young man there lived in our neighborhood a farmer who was usually reported to be a very liberal man and uncommonly upright in his dealings. When he haa any of the produce of his farm to dispose of he made it an invariable rule to give good measure—rather more than would be required ofhim. One of his friends observed him frequently doing so, ques tioned him ns to why he did it. He told him he gave too much, and said it was to his disadvantage. Now, mark the answer of this excellent man: “God SCHOFIELD’S IRON WORKS, OPPOSITE THElPASSENCER DEPOT, MACON, GEORGIA.' ing specimens ot umerent families are carefully kept by rosarians in England, France. Germany and this country. France has done more than any other country to increase the varieties; but there can lie no doubt that America, with its range of cli mate and soil, and with the great atten tion now being paid to this fascinating branch of floriculture, will give to the world its share of beautiful roses. CROSSING THE KINDS. The usual way of crossing roses is to cut off the stamens of one variety, and shake over it the pollen of the other, or apply it carefully with a camel's hair brush. By this method the characteristics of both parent* are equally transmitted to the new flowers. If the stamens are not am putated the characteristics of the fe male parent will predominate.

Morrison does not expect to have bis tariff till I discussed for at least two or three weeks. At least this Is what he says in conversation with his friend.. This postponement of the consideration of the bill U rresided aaaslgnot great weakness. The tendency of such postponement is to prolong the session. The most conserva tive of the Democrats think an early ad' journim nt of vital importance. It is by no means certain that there will be a tariff discussion, as the opponents of the bill now sec a way to cut off debate and beat the bill if they can carry the House with them.

Philadelphia Times. Mr. Tiiden is now in the well darkened shadows ot the evening of life. He might happen to live through a cam* paign; he would not liavo one chance in a hundred to live' to be inaugurated If elected; he would not have one chance in a million to live through one year of ids term. The mental jewel is clear and un- dimmed, but the mortal easket is hope lessly shattered and rapidly crumbling to ashes. He is a great political power, and no Democrat will be elected President this cor without the cordial cooperation of lie T.lden political machinery in New York; but he can’t make himself Presl dent and hope to be President. If Tiiden shall be nominated for Presi dent. the nomination of Hendricks must logically follow. There would be no his toric justice in the nomination of one without the other; and the nomination of the old ticket would be the practical nomi nation of Hendricks for the Presidency. With his greater physical and mental vigor he would doubtless make a better Presi dent for the party and the country than Tiiden. even if Tiiden could hope to drag himself through a four yeara' term: but the popular contest would turn upon Hen- dricks and not upon Tiiden, and the strength of that ticket must be in its tail rattier than in its head. Tills is an age of practical rather than of sentimental poll Jcs, pungentiv as Wayne MacVeagb deplores it, and the country would forget the sentimental in a Tiiden battle, to turn to the practical in a Hen dricks contest. If Tiiden could warm up his love for Hendricks and gracefully re tire to put Hendricks at the head oil the ticket, the.caase would be stronger than with Tiiden at the front in a shroud, ant Hendricks behind with the President!* zoo a hanging in crape from hi* girdle; but Tiiden tovei not Hendricks, and will not learn to love him.

It may be years before definite results are obtained; but the pursuit is so fascinating that the number and charac ter of experiments are constantly increas ing and becoming more various. A new rose, which has just been pro duced by a Philadelphia tlori9t. and which will not be in the market until next year, is the Sunset. It is a tea rose, large ami symmetiical in form, of the size and shape of the l'earl, with color something like that of the Safrano—a salmon hue with the suggestion of a greenish tinge. The favorite rose, king of ail in its scarlet robes, is the General Jacqueminot, Its exact parentage is given it: some catalogues, but it a not generally known. It was first presented to the world in France. Next to it In popularity come the Mermet, tho Mareclial Kiel, tho Pearl du Jardin and the Don Fiieno. Other fa vorites are La France, a fragrant pink hybrid, peculiar in that its color deepens toward the outer petals instead of toward the centre, and the Cornelia Cook, with its tint of pale cream. Tiie hybrid teas arc a new class of roses introduced by Bennett, tiie great English grower, They bloom but one or twice in a season, while hybrids and teas bloom con tinuously. Favorites of this class are the Neplietos. a pure white flower, sometimes suffused witii a pallid green tint, and not fragrant; tlia Beauty of Stapleford, of-a y aler crimson and less compact than the aequo; the Duke of Connaught, much like the Jacque in color, but not so fra grant; and Anally tho Bennett, called “the ¥5,000 rose," because Mr. Evans, of.Frank- ford, last fall p»id Bennett ¥.1,750 for half his stock. This new rose is very s weet and U crimson, like the Jacque, but is not so compact in its structure. Tl'KSIXG WHITER INTO SI'MMEU. The most expensive rose is the Jacque minot, because tiie demand is so large and the supply so small. The reason lor this is that tiie plant is uncertain In its bloom; a whole bed may prove barren. Like otlitr hybrid roses the Jacqueminot naturally blooms only in summer, and it is the task of the florist to reverse nature’s order and make it bloom in winter. There are many tricks, some of thorn kept secret, connected with this process. One Philadelphia grower says that he goes through ten different op erations to deceive the plants into believ ing that winter Is summer and summer Is winter. The general features of tiie pro cess are lo freeze tiie plants during the summer und keep them warm in winter. It is not always necessary, however, to freeze them. They may be "starved." as It Is culled, during the summer; that is, given no water and no fertilizing material. it is among these terrestial or swim' ming kinds that we must look for the nearest approaches of the primitive bird tvpe. From the very beginning, birds had to endure the fierce competi tion of the mammals, which had been developed at arslightly earlier period; and they have for tho most part taken entirely to the air, where alone they possess a distinct superi ority over their mammalian compeers There nro certain spots, however, where mammals have been unable to pene trate, as in oceanic islands; and there are certain other spots whicli were insu lated for a long period from the great continents, so that they possessed none of the higher classes of mammals, as in the case of Australia, South America, New ZealanS, and South Africa. In these districts terrestrial birds had a chance which they had not in the great circumpolar lanu tract, now divided into two jtortioBS, North America on the west and Asia and Europe on the east. It is in Australia and the southern extremities of America and Africa, therefore, that we must look for the most antiquated forms of birds still sur viving in the world at the present day. The decadent and now almost extinct order of struthious birds, to which os triches and cassowaries belong, sup plies us witii the best examples of such antique forms. These birds are all dis tinguisheil from every other known species, except tiie transitional Solcn- hofen creature and a few other old types, by the fact that they have no keel to the flat breast-hone, a peculiar ity which at once marks them out as not adapted forllight. Every one whose anatomical studies have been carried otrSs far as the carving of a chicken or a pheasant for dinner knows that the two halves of tiie hreast are divided by a sharp keel or edge protruding from the breast-bone, but in the ostrich and their allies such a keel is wanting and the breast-hono is round ed and blunt, At one time these flat- chested birds were widely distributed over the whole world, for they are foimd,in fossil forms from China to i’eru, but as the mammalian race in creased and multiplied and replenish cd the earth, only the best adapted keeled birds were able to hold their own against these fonr-lcgged competi tors in the great continents. Thus the gigantic ostriches olthelsleoIShcppcy and the great divers of the Western States died slowly out, .leaving all their modem kindred to inhabit the less progressive southern hemi sphere alone. Even there, the mon strous tepyotiis, a huge stalking wing less bin!, disappeared from Madagas car in the tertiary age, while the great moa of New Zealand, after living down to almost historical times, fell a victim at last to that very aggressive and hun gry mammal, tho Maori himself. This almost reduces the existing struthious types to three small and scattered col onies, in Australasia, South Africa and Soutli America, respectively, though there are still probably a few ostriches left In some remote parts of the Asiatic continent. through the world, and when I am gone.I cannot return to rectify mis takes.” Tho old farmer’s mistakes were of tiie sort he did not want to rectify. Crowing Basket Willow. The basket willow is in many sec tions a very profitable sido crop, re quiring little labor, and often occupy ing land that would otherwise be of little value. Tho unpeeted willow soils readily at ¥20 and ¥25 per ton, while from three to six tons aro grown per acre. The peeled willow ts worth at the factory $100 per ton. A machine 1ms lately been invented for pecli ig willow by horse or steam power, and this great disparity in price will not long exist. Tne machine will give a great impetus to the manufacture of willow ware. About ¥5,000,000 worth of willow has been imported into this country per year. As wo can grow it profitably this importation should cease. “ Merited Success. The popularity of Neural vine is frost merit.
