CHRYSANTHEMUMS.
How to Handle and Keep Them Fresh
for the Flower Show.


The plants being now in full bloom in
all their beauty, nothing more remains
to be said, unless few hints on exhibit
ing are of any use. Perhaps some
blooms, that would be acquisitions to a
stand of cut flowers, are rather too early
and not likely to last on the plant till
exhibition time; if these are cut and
placed in water, in a dark, dry place,
they will keep fresh for some consider
able time. If, on the contrary the
blooms are likely to be late, push them
on with little more ammonia water
and give little extra heat if possible.
The blooms should not be laid fat on the
boards, but placed in cups made to fit
the collar of the bud, and put into tubes
of water. Do not use paper collars on
the boards, nothing sets off the bloom SO
much as the green boards. The largest
blooms should be at the back of the
board and the smallest in front, harmon.
izing the colors as much as possible.

Are thus far reported, besides large
number wounded whose names have not
yet been learned.
Those familiar with the scene and cir
cumstances of the disaster are loud in
declaring it the result Of the most reck-
less and objectionable carelessness, and
that nothing was more unnecessary or
more wholly without excuse than the
wreck of this morning.
But the engineer?
Well, he paid the penalty of his folly,
and what would be crime in the living
can only in this instance be used to point
a moral and be remembered as a fearful
warning to others Of the craft who every
day hold the lives of thousands of hu-
man beings in their hands.

HOT HASTE AT THE NAVY YARD
Cruisers Being Fitted Out, and Rear Ad-
mirals in ConclaVe.


The New York Advertiser says The
Brooklyn navy yard wore martial ap-
pearance Yesterday, and energy and bus
tie were mynifested on every hand. Ex-
ira men, indeed all the men that can be
had for love or money, have been put to
work on the ships being got ready for
service, and the clang of the hammer was
heard all day long. Marines could be
seen drilling on board many of Uncle
Sans men O war, and the sailors Of both
the Atlanta and Chicago were put through
the new tactics on shore. They presented
"a smart appearance, and it was easy to
see that their faces were animated with
hope Of some kind. Perhaps it was the
expectation of leaving the dull routine of
navy yard discipline and entering into
active in Chilian waters. The crew of
the Atlanta, most of them old hands,
went through the drill with mechanical
precision.
Although drilling is not anything ex-
traordinary in the Navy Yard, there are
other circumstances connected with it
showing that comething unusual is going
on Fully dozen officers, all Of them
of high rank, were closeted with Com
mandant Erben, Among them weare
Rear Admiral Bancroft Gherardt, COM
mander of the North Atlantic Svuadron,
and Acting Rear Admiral James 6.
Walker, commander Of the Squadron of
Evolution. The Philadelphia, Admiral
Gherardis flagship, is now ready for
sea. When asked by reporter of the
Morning Advertiser when he was going
to. sail and where he was going, he re-
piled rather evasively: "Oh, any time
when I'm ready. Perhaps l may sail to
the West Indies"
Commanding officers are suspiciouly
reticent, unless when they are suspi-
ciously loquacious, and Captain McCor-
mack, Chief of the Ordinance, though in
his department there is unusual hustle,
replied quietly to question that he had
received no special orders, and that
"everything is quiet, very quiet"
If the opinion of the rank and file is
worth anything, and it is known they
have an instinct-almost as good as the
intelligence obtained from Washington
by their superiors-there is to be fight
ing. An old salt named John Brennan
of the Atlanta, who has been in Chilian
waters more than once, said to the re-
porter
"When | was at Santiago three years
ago heard good deal of talk. | know
Spanish, and | also know that there must
be brush sooner or later between us and
the Chilians. They are the most con-
ceited lot of beggars I've ever met in my
life, and | have heard them say more
than once that when they have conquered
all South America and made it a big
Spanish Republic they will turn their at
tenti0n TO the Yankees and take the
starch out of them. They have an idea
that one Chilian can lick four Americans,
and have no hesitation in saying so. Our
boys are quite willing to show them the
difference, and also TO avenge our COM
rades. | can tell you this, too, it is not
the first time American seamen have been
murdered in Valparaiso, Callao and San,
| tiagO"

The Baneful Influence of the Stage at
Anaheim.
Oracle Kline, wayward girl who has
been in Mrs. Watson's custody until re-
Gently, and over whom that lady exer-
cises the authority of guardian, is in
trouble again. Oracle became 80 far
reformed under the good influences of
Mrs. Watson's institution that she was
deemed capable of staving off all temp
tations, and was sent out to Anaheim to
work as a domestic. But Oracle fell
again when she joined a local dramatic
aggregation. The baneful influences of
the stage overcame all the good which
Mrs. Watson was able to accomplish, and
Oracle soon got into her old ways. She
came up to Los Angeles with a young
man some days ago, and is now living in
lodging house which does not bear a
very savory reputation. Accordingly a
complaint has been issued by the dis
trict attorney against Oracle for vagran-
cy, and she will probably soon be ar
rested and given over again to the care
of the home.

The examination OF Burt. O'Ferrall ct

take place yesterday, the day for which
it was set,it having been agreed TO await
the action Of the grand jury. which is
expected to finish the hearing of the

many witnesses yet to be examined.
Among those on the stand yesterday
were A. Blair and Captain Keith, Of

THE MILLER MURDER.
No Results as Yet from the Detectives
Work.


Still nothing definite in the mysterious
Miller murder. The detectives are work
ing on clue, but nothing has yet been
adduced that could be made public.
Chief Glass expects to have something
for publication by the end of the week.
The verdict returned bytne jury yester-
day was as follows: "That the deceased, ,
George Washington Miller, came to his
death from blow on the head from a
blunt instrument in the hands of an un-
known person."
The deceased will be buried from his
late residence, 437 South Broadway, at
10 O'Clock this morning.
1t is now generally believed in police
circles that robbery was not the
motive of the assassin, notwithstand-
ing that the gold watch is missing.
As far as can be learned Miller did not
have an enemy who would take such
desperate chances for revenge. The
murderer is undoubtedly some one who
expects to be greatly benefited by the
killing of Miller, otherwise he would
not risk having moose put around his
neck. Ii this theory is correct, the
murderer must have bided his oppor.
tunity, probably for weeks or months,
and must have been in the saloon when
Miller went to lie down on the sofa in
the rear room, OF he must have been
told by confederate who was present
at the time.

A New York paper contains the fol-
lowing: A novel experiment has been
devised for the entertainment of dinner
guests, the serving OF salad grown un-
der the eyes OF the guests who partake
of it. The secret of performing this
magic feat lies in soaking good germin-
ating lettuce seed in alcohol for about
six hours, and sowing in it an equal
mixture of unslacked lime and rich soil.
After the soup has been served sprinkle
the seed with lukewarm water and they
will sprout Immediately, the lettuce
growing to about the size of hazel nuts
before the time for serving the salad ar
