yor,te Flower of the Dead Ger.

-,nv the Corn Flower was the Fa.
vorite Flower of the Dead Ger.
man Emperor.
The Washington Critic explains
Why the Corn Flower, with which the
dead Emperor's coverlet was strewn,
was his favorite flower. 1t is the ex.
planation given by the Germans them
selves:
1.-THE .Kornblume' is called in our
country Ragged Robin or Bachelors
Rutton. Itgrows among the wheat in
Prussia, and is generally accom- panied
nv the red Poppy, or as the Germans
ssv the sKlitchrose.' When the moth
er eff the dead Emperor, Queen Louisa
of Prussia, had to fly with her children
from Napoleon Bonaparte, the little
Princes were so hungry they were
cry ing for bread and while they
waited somewhere for relief, toward
The eastern frontier, they were among
fhe wheat fields, and the Queen made
a crown of Kornblumen and put 1t
on the head of the second son, not the
Grown Prince, and told him she be-
lisved and hoped that he would some
dsy ayengs the wrongs OF his country.
The Queen mothers words seem TO
have been prophetic, and she must
have foreseen that the Crown Prince
would prove incapable, and the dead
Emperor, who was her second son,
wonld be the one to punish France.
and the noble mother and good Queen
7ooked into the future with no uncer-
tain ewes, So the KOrnblume was al
wavs the favorite flower from the day

frv to divert him and keep him from
thinking of his hunger until he laid
down the cares Of State forever

Philadelphia Record.


The Tariff bill prepared by the Dem.
.ocratic members of the Ways and
Means Committee, will grow in public
favor. day by day, as it shall be more
fully discussed and better und- rstood.
The roar and racket of the protection.
ist press will deceive nobody who shall
desire TO make up an accurate judg-
ment from q study of the facts bearing
upon the situation.
It must be borne in mind that the
obj Ject of the bill is to afford the largest
measure of relief to the people, not
only by reducing the amount of money
poured daily into the Federal Treasury
in excess of the necessities of the Gov
ernment, but by cheapening the cost
of living at the expense of monopolies,
trusts and combinations which are at
present sucking the marrow of the
consumer.
The bill proposes to revive the droop-
ing manufacturing interests of the coun-
try by discaIding the rude, ,unscientific
and unnecessary device of taxing both
the crude material and the finished
product, thus putting our industries
and our labor at q disadvantage as
compared with competing industries
and labor in all other parts of the
world. No argument can break down
the fact that MAJ ufacturers could make
cheaper goods and pay better wages if
they could buy
Cheaper wool,
Cheapsr dye stuffs,
Cheaper lumber,
Cheaper jute, hemp and fax,
Cheaper chemicals and other crude
materials.
And no argument will avail to con.
vince the laboring man that he will
be injured by
Cheaper food,
Cheaper clothing,
Cheaper shelter,
Cheaper earthenware,
Cheaper glass, and
Cheaper utensils.
If the taxes can be reduced $780,
600, 900 by comforting these general
advantages upon the industry of the
country, and by the same stroke gath
another 500 000, 900 of unearned mon
ey from the inordinate prices of mate
rials which are necessaries of life, is it
the new Tariff bill. This 1t will ao
complish if it shall become law. For
every dollar of tax it may intercept on
its way to the Treasury it will save to
| the people two other dollars on the
way to the NAV of Monopoly. Of
coarse, the lobby will howl, and the
subsidized press will rave with rage,
and the protected interests" will
protest; but Tax Reduction and Tariff
Reform are near at hand,

and eager advocate of it's consumma.

"I asked a gentleman TODAY. who

The plan was submitted to Senator
Frye, William E. Chandler, and sew

his commission, and they all advised
against it. Finally, William Walter
Phelps carried the suggestion to Mr..

THE funeral of William l., monarch
of Prussia and Germany, was held in
Berlin Friday last. The services were
of the most solemn and impressive
character. and a great concourse, in,
cluding heads and court represents
fives of other governments, assembled
10 testify their love and appreciation
of the great and good King and EN-
peror. The remains were inferred al
Charlottenberg. The services were
conducted in accordance with the wish
of the dead Emperor, he having se'
lected the passages of scripture to be
read at his funeral. Frederick Ill
was unable to be present, as were also
Bismarck and Won Moltke, by reason
of indisposition.

The Misses Bowles, of Hillsboro,
this State, have in their possession an
unusual botanical specimen. Some
time near midwiRter a branch of an
apple tree was broken off and used as
support for a Gala lilly. The
broken end of the branch was stuck
in the earth that was contained in the
pot in which the lilies were growing,
and in few days it was in full bloom
Noticing this unusual freak of nature,
the branch was allowed to remain un.
disturbed, and at present small apples
have formed, with every indication of
going on to full maturity. Several
days later a number of lilac branches
were placed in a pot containing char.
coal and water, and these are now in
full bloom, The experiment was con
tinued by placing a number of hya-
cinth bulbs in vases containing warm
water, which was kept at an even tenn.
perature, aud all these bulbs are now
blooming in a charming manner.
These simple experiments show how
easily we may have the choicest flow-
ers, and even fruit, at all times during
the Winter.
