The name rose comes directly from
the Latin, and through the Latin from
the Greek. In its first form it is sup
posed to have been derived from the
color red. In its different forms it has
given its name to many lands. Syria or
Suristan is thought to be derived from
the name of a beautiful and delicate
species of rose. the surf, which grows in
that country. Gulistan comes from the
Persian name, gul, rose, and Rhodes, the
island made so famous by the valiant de-
tense against the Turks by the Knights
of St. John. means the land or the place
of roses. The rose has popularity been
supposed to be indigenous to oriental
countries. Born in the east, it has been
diffused like the sunlight all over the
world" Esop told the gardener of his
master Xanthus that 1.-The earth is a step
mother to those plants Incorporated into
her soil, but a mother to those which
are her own free product"
Where the wild rose fourishes, there
all other roses will grow And the wild
rose, in spite of so much prating to the
contrary, seems to be indigenous to all
the world, in the temperate zones, eX-
cept Australia and South America These
countries are among the youngest con-
tinents of our earth geologically and the
Rosacea are the latest corners in time
1t had not become rose time with them
when man came. The Rosacese includes,
besides roses, most of the hardy fruit
trees and plants, the apple, peach, pear,
plum, raspberry, trawberry, blackberry,
as well as many ornamental shrubs. -

Bravery of nenedict ARNOLD.

Now, as Burgoyne retreated to the
British 'great redOubt," leaving nearly
all his cannon on the field, Gen. Ten
Brock threw 5000 fresh New York mill
tia into the American advance line.
Here the unrestrained ambition of Gen.
Arnold showed itself in a series of daring
achievements which touch the reader
of history with admiration and pity. Re
fused a command in the morning by
Gen. Gates, he could no longer keep in
the rear. Mounted on fire, brown horse,
he led first a brigade at the right and
then one at the left in impetuous
charges on the British position.
IN soon put an end to it" he cried,
and the soldiers followed him with en-
thusiasm. Riding up to Col. Latimer' S
Connecticut regiment, he accosted them
"Ahl my old friends from New Lon
don and Norwich! Come on, boys; if
the day is long enough we will have them
all in hell before nightr'
While charging over the rail breast
works on the British right Arnold re-
ceived a wound in the same leg that had
been struck at Quebec. AS he fell under
his horse, he shouted: Go on, boys!"
They went on, capturing the key of
the English position and killing Col.
Breymann. The spot is now known as
Burgoyne's, or more properly Breymann' S
hill. The irony of fate gave Gates, in
the rear, the laurels of victory, and des-
tined Arnold, wounded, at the head of
the American troops, to an infamous
memory. Gates did not even mention
Arnold in reporting the battle.-C. II.
Crandall in American Magazine.

Major-General Miles, U. S. A., has
been detailed as member of the COM
mission created by an act of Congress,
approved August 10, $780, to negotiate
with the northern band of CHEYENNE In
dams on Tongue River reservation, Mon
tana, and with the band of Northern
Cheyenne Indians on Pine Ridge reser-
Walton, South Dakota, for such modifica-
ton OF the treaty and other rights as
may be deemed desirable.

and salaries OF the special agents, whom
he will send to examine and approve or
dlsapprove the surveys of public lands
which have been made in that State I'M
der the provisions of recent legislation.
The surveys have been made under con-
tracts authorized by the last sundrv civil
appropriation bill. More contracts have
been awarded for Montana under this
appropriation than any other State which
has public lands. The government has
adopted new method in the line of ex-
animation by sending special agents to
report at once, thereby avoiding the long
delays IN the department of the Deputy
surveyors, which have been complained
OF in the past years.
notwithstanding Spaulding has sent
a letter to the Collectors OF Customs of
New York, Portland. Or, and Port
Townsend, Wash, calling attention to
the provision in schedule 6 of the tariff
act, whereby starch, including all prep
arations from whatevever substance pro
duced fit Tor use as starch, is dutiable at
the rate OF 2 cents per pound, in order
that in view of the large quantities of
so-called root flour, sage flour, tapioca

for the purpose of being used by the
Chinese as starch, and which were ad-

According to DR.. Newell, for children
of 10 or IL years the capacity for bright
and voluntary attention is exhausted by
four varied lessons requiring mental eff
fort of half an hour each, with intervals
Of relief in the forenoon. In the afternoon
this capacity is reduced one-half. Two
hours in the forenoon and one hour in
the afternoon is as long time as chill
dren can be profftably employed in
school,"
DR.. Chancellor supports this view, and
advocates eighteen hours week as the
limit for school children under H.
Baginskey, author Of a German work on
school hygiene, takes the same view, and
in demonstration of its effectiveness it is
alleged that half time pupils in the
English schools learn as much as the chill
dren who are in school the full number
of hours.-Hall's Journal of Health.

two other rooms, somtimes named, some
times not. Free lunches are not in order.
The lunch at the British public must be
paid for If in cold weather you want
your ale warmed the barmaid asks you
if you will have it ''chilled." The chill

Signature of the Gar.

The car spends very little time in
his study, as he is more afraid of his
stoutness than of political plots, and is
consequently in the habit of receiving his
ministers in the grounds, walking up and
down an avenue while listening to their
reports. He frequently adds his initial
GA to an important document by hold
ing it against a tree, and hence it is
rather indistinct at times. The car is
by no means quick in signing deeds, and
in many cases numbers of those neatly
written specimens of Russian caIigraphy
are returned without signature, and then
the court caligraphers, who Guido in
their art the monks of old, have to do
their work over again. The Argonaut.
