OUR NATIONAL FLOWER.

mot by THE STATEsNAN's Poetl
We choose the emerald mint, with its leaves OF
shimmering green,
The common, homely, wsyward fower, beloved by
all, we ween.
No tall esthetc blossom, but on the earth, smil-
ing low,
nlifts its fragrant leaves aloft to all the winds
that blow.
Its racy odor is invoked from morn till day is
done,
Through sunshine and through storm by every
son-of-a-gun.
1t hath a charm to sooth and cheer wherever ii
may be;
Its q symbol of our own dear land, the hcne 81
Liberty.
And when it grows so brave and true meath its
protected shade,
The flowers of all lands and climes unseen may
bloom and fade.
Fair as cur hammered stripes shine the leaves with
sglittering sheen,
OF the fragrant juicy mint with it's hues of SHIN
mering green.

Special to the Statesman.
BURNETT, June 28.-The Colorado river
has been on boom all this week. No
mail for the west has crossed since Mon
day, and almost wagon-load of mail
matter has accumulated at this Office. So
much rain and high water in June is a
thing almost without precedent. Cotton
as a rule is badly in the weeds and not
doing WE'LL but few weeks dry weather
would set matters fright for splendid
crop.
The Alliance men are making prepare
tions to open the Burnett and Llano
counties cotton yard at this place for the
fall season. A meeting of the directors
will be held in the southern part of
the county July 4, to consider
the ways and means for carrying out the
purposes of the organization. The object
is to bulk all the Alliance cotton of both
counties at this place.

WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW.

General Statement of the Commercial
Situation Throughout the Country.
New YORK, June 2S.-R. G. Dun g. Co.'s
Weekly Review of Trade says: 1t has been
q week of considerable excitement in
speculative circles, and of a-heavy general
trade without material change in the con-
ditions, as all depends, in large measure,
at this season, upon crop prospects. 1t
is most encouraging to find reports 10
this particular unusually favoravle, the
only noteworthy exception being that
some damage to cotton and grain from
frequent rains is reported at Galveston.
In the northwest the grain outlook
is particularly fine, great improvement
being reported in quarters where there
had been some apprehension of crops of
unusual magnitude.
With the general volume of business so
maintained that an increase of SO per
cent over last year appears in the clearing

A Distinguished American Woman Lsld
to Rest in an Ohio Cemetery.
FREMONT, o., June 2S.-The day is warm.
The morning trains brought large num-
Der of persons to pay the last tribute of
respect to Lucy Webb Hayes, and there
were groups of old soldiers everywhere
upon the streets or on the way to the
Hayes home. The people of Fremont
entered fully into the feelings of the be-
reaved family, and during the morning
there was notable absence of sight. seers
and persons attracted by mere curiosity to
the house of mourning. There have been
many visitors during the forenoon, but they
were personal friends arriving from
abroad, and delegations of old soldiers,
who marched solemnly out in groups, and,
after paying their respects to General
Hayes, quietly returned to town.
The wide hail of the Charming house,
the parlors and the library, are heavy
with the perfume of flowers, tributes
from pubic people and private friends,
from comrades in arms of General Hayes
and military and civic organizations. The
profusion of these is bewildering and
many are of the most elaborate nature.
Among the great number arriving to-day
were magnificent pillow of
white lilies and maiden hair fern
from the president and Mrs.
Harrison. The Lucy Hayes mission sent
piece consisting of fitty-seven white
roses, one for each year of the life just
closed. A most beautiful piece came from
the Womsn's Home Missionary society of
the Methodist Episcopal church, of which
Mrs. Hayes was president.
the survivors of the Twenty third Ohio
regiment sent an elaborate piece, while
the number of those from private friends
was simply legion, among them being two
specially noticable--one from Mr.. and
Mrs. VIM. Henry Smith, and another from
Henry Pfiester, of the White House con-
servatory, who was also in charge during
Mr.. Hayes term of Office.
The funeral services were simple and
unostentatious, preserving the character
OF private rather than public occasion.
The funeral cortege then took up its line
of march toward lakewood cemetery,
where the interment took place.
