FLOWERS AND INSECTS.
Professor Martins Course or Lee
lures in Biology.


The lowering clouds and cold. drizzling
rain OF Tuesday afternoon caused regret in
many hearts, for that evening had been set
apart for the opening Of the second annual
course OF lectures under the Thomas Endow-
ment Fund. Notwithstanding the Indictment
and threatening weather, an audience num-
berlng several hundred, composed OF truss
tees, faculty, students, and many ladies and
gentlemen OF note, both from the city and
elsewhere, assembled in the beautiful
Thomas Hall. At the appointed hour Pro-
fessor u. B. Smith, chairman OF the commit
tee in charge, after announcing that the SUBJ
feet OF the course OF lectures would be
Biology, introduced the lecturer, Professor
ii. Newell Martin, LII. D., i. Il. s., OF
Johns Hopkins University.
TIE DEPENDENCE OF FLOWERS on INSECTS.
Without wasting any time in preliminary
remarks, Dr. Martin proceeded Immediately
10 discuss the subject in hand.
Men, In regarding themselves rs the lords
OF creation, are prone 10 consider all things
as brought into existence for their own pc
culiar and exclusive benefit. So OF the
flowers which bloom in luXuriant proiuson
on every side. We are sll naturally in
clined to share the sympathy OF the poet who
sadly sings, "Full many flower is born TO
blush unseen, and waste It's sweetness on
the desert air." We are want to think OF
their gorgeous colors, delicate tints, and
odoriierous perfumes as created for his
delectation alone. such is not the case. Not
for man, but for the poor, despised insect
does the lily clo,he itself In beauty, and the
rose lade the zephyrs with its fragrance. He
was thus brought 10 his subject for the eve.
ming, 1.-THE Dependence OF Flowers upon
Insects" The lecturer divided all plants
into Towering and 1owerless, and Illus
trated the difference between their seed by
hkening that Of the former TO an egg, and Of
the latter to ? newborn puppy.
THE EARLY PLANTS.
The 6rst plants were fowerless, con nskting
OF MOSES, ferns, &C., &c. Ages later insects
appeared, and thousands OF years after this
plspts began TO grow flowers. Just here a
typical flower was thrown upon the screen,
and its various parts OF stem, corolla, pis.
tils. stsmen, style, stigma, authors, &C., with
their respective functions, were pointed out
and explained. The delicate and wonderful
contriyances by which the intinitessimal ova
are fertilized and developed into perfect seeds
was carefully deineated. In some plants
this fertilization Is effected by their own pol
len. In others by pollen from other members
OF the same family. DIR. Martin, who seems
IN be a follower OF Charles Darwin, cited an
interesting experiment on mornlng-glories
ond pansies conducted by that distinguished
scientist going 10 prove both that cross-fer-
flized flowers produce more seed and are
far hardier than those which are self-ferti-
lied, and Ia consequences OF this are always

Big Fire In New York.


NEW YORK. April 1.-THE big factory at
Ninth avenue and Oue-hundredth-aud-
twenty-iourth street took fire at O'clock
this morning. In five minutes after The out.
break the whole building was in flames from
cellar 10 roof. Every engine within resch
was called to the scene. but their work was
in vain. In an hour the large building was
q heap OF ruins. lt stood on the northwest
corner and covered lot 50xl00 feet.
The Buffalo Door, Sash, and Bind Com
panv owned il, with all the machinery and
stock it contained I'm its five stories. The
loss Is estimated at 100000. 1t is covered
by insurance in number OF different COM
pauies. The New York manager OF the firm
IL Mr.. Kendall. II is surmised that the fire
started in or near the boiler-rooms. The
flames appeared, when first seen, 10 rsge
iercest in the basement. The fire was first
observed by The conductor OF q cable car,
who gave the slarm and brought the firemen.
one hundred telegraph wires on tall poles ran
along Ninth avenue in front OF the factO-
~. They wlthered, curled, and melted away
in the heat On the south side OF One-hun-
ed-and-twentv.fourth street q row OF neT
building was threatened, and the tiremen
turned their streams from the burning fac
tory upon them until the liercest fury OF the
blaze was over and the walls had fallen. One
Of the walls tOttered above little two.story
frame house at No. 10 Manhattan street un-
der the very caves Of the factory, and the
police drove the tenants ont. Eleven cows
staoled IN the rear were rescued. The
tenants had barely left this house when one
OF the factory walls fell, demolshng one
end. The night.watchman Is missing, but
It is supposed he will turn up.
