The Poor Flower Makers.

Flower making is one of the starving
industries of New York City. 1t takes
from two to six years to learn the bust
ness. Roses, leaves, violets and clusters
like lilacs are the popular branches and
all arc paid by the piece The first year
the learner averages 81 4 week; the Sec
ond year 81 so; the third So; the fourth
81, and after that eighty cents day is
considered fair pay, for the reason that
first class work is not abundant, the
buyers preferring imported flowers for
the same money to the home product
Strong chemicals are used i'll the work
and have a deleterious influence on the
health of the girls. These rose-makers
and foliage branchers are very nice girls
as a class. Taste is required in the work,
which has a refining influence on those
called upon to exert it.-Ne,O York

Florida Phosphate Beds.

"The phosphate beds of Florida hav,
since their discovery about one year ago
given employment to thirty-two millions
of capital. And" continued Commits
sioner R. Turnbull, guest of the Palmer
House from that State, "many NOR,
millions will be invested there before the
close of the present year. Moreover,
good, substantial returns are being had
on the money. Phosphate mining is not

Arnold Brinkworth, who owns, per-
haps, the finest private botanical collec-
ZION in the country, and whose green
houses near Mount Sterling, Ky, are
filed with the rarest and most delicate
plants of all nations, is exhibiting with
much pride a specimen of the heur de
lune, the existence of which has often
been doubted, but which was sent Mr.
Brinkworth a few months ago by a friend
residing near 0bydos, Brazil. 1t was
obtained for him from an Indian, who
found it growing in a swamp in the
depths of the Amazonian forests, and is
the only specimen which has ever reached
this country alive. Those who have
been favored by glimpse Of the curios-
ity say it is a delicate, tenacious vine,
covered with small, glossy leaves of &
bright and very tender green, climbing
to a height of four or five feet, bearing
here and there q milk-white blossom of
a disk-like shape.
When the moon is at its first quarter
a distinct shadow or stain of deep yell
low, which seems rather in than out of
the flower. and corresponding to the
shape of the moon, makes its appearance
on this disk, and grows as the planet
does, until, when at its full size, the
yellow stain covers the entire flower As
the moor begins to wane again this re-
treats in the same ratio, and finally dis
appears altogether, to return once more
as the new moon is seen to come back.
When the planet sets the flower closes,
and does not unfold until the moon rises
on the following night. 1t pursues this
course month after month, whether
placed in the open air or kept in a hot
house, though under the latter circum-
stances the yellow tint is much paler and
more undecided, while the white surface
takes on dingy, unhealthy tinge. The
plant subsists almost entirely on air, its
roots being barely covered with little
moist gravel. - Cincinnati Commercial,

but there was an expression of supreme con

military organizations. They are called
upon more frequently than they SHOULD De
p; TO serve either as grand or petit jurors
( There IS. of course. great deal to be said
in behalf of the policy which exempts from
Jury duty those who help To sustain the
military organizations These organizations
are considered a necessity, and the state
gives them very little assistance. If the
state was more liberal in its treatment OF

against exemptiug their members from

the means necessary to sustain themselves,
there has been comparatively little COM
But there is one thing in connection with
this policy which has not been given the
consideration to which 1t is entitled. 1t is
this: Too many of the men who are best
qualified for Jury duty are relieved from
that duty. And it is this fact, probably,
that Mr.. Berner had in view when he
framed his bill.
In order to secure an intelligent admins
tration Of justice it is necessary that the
most intelligent men shall serve as jurors.
But these are the very men who will svoid
jury duty if they can. They are business
men, as rule, and their time is valuable TO
them. In about every town in the state in
which there are military organizations a
majority, perhaps, of the business men are
connected with these organizations. The
result is that courts have to accept as jurors 4,
gether acceptable and to impose extra jury
duty upon those who are acceptable.
The administration of justice is matter
of the highest importance. A very unsstis-
factory condition of affairs follows a loss of
confidence in the integrity, intelligence and
competency of juries. People who have
great interests at stake or wrongs to right
hesitate to go into the courts for redress.
and disposition grows up among the peo~
pie to take the law into their own hands.
While, therefore, any legislation that is
calculated to injure the military organiza-
tions is to be regretted it will hardly be de-
MED that the Berner bill is calculated to
promote the general good.

Bishop Turner's Scheme.

Bishop Turner, of the African Meth odist
church, wants the blacks of this country to
emigrate to Africa. He says they have no
chance now to show what they are capable
of, and that their only hope of making
great future for their race is to go where
they can build up a civilization of their own.
He doesn't want them all to go at once, but
thinks it would be advisable for about
$50, 900 of them to 60 to Liberia, or some
other Part of Africa, and make a trial of
self-government
1t is safe to say that the bishops advice
will not be acted upon. Some of the most
intelligent of the blacks of this country
have had all the experience in Liberia they
care to have. They went with the view of
making their homes there, but they didn'r
remain long. Just as soon as they got rid
of the deadly African fever. which attacked
them soon after they landed, they started
back to their old homes. Many who went
with them, however, remained, but not
among the living.
The MORNING. NEWS recently published
the experiences in Liberia Of colored car
penter of Atlanta who took his family
there. The tale he told on his return is we'll
calculated to keep other colored men from
taking Bishop Turner's advice. And few
days ago the MORNING NEWS printed some
observations of Rev. Floyd Snelson of Way
cross on Liberia. The Rev. Snelson was in
that country for little while. He didn't
tGrry. and the happiest day of his life was
the day he left it He thinks that colored
emigrant from this country has no chance
for betterihg his condition there. The
wages he could earn wouldn't buy enough
hog and hominy to keep him from starving.
If few thousand blacks from this coun-
try should form a colony and settle in liz
IBERIA it wouldn't be long before they would
send urgent appeals for money with which
to return.
20 II Bishop Turner wants to see what the
blacks can do toward working out a civili-
zation Of their own let him get the rich men
of his race aud the philanthropic whites
who are willing to help him with his exper-
iment to contribute enough to buy large
tract of land in Mexico, aud invite about
100000 blacks to occupy it. The blacks
could do as well there as anywhere, and the
Mexicans would let them do about as they
| pleased.
1t is fact that wherever the blacks have
| been left TO themselves they have gone
backward instead Of forward. They have
things their own way in Hayti and they
/ have ABOUT ruined the island. II uure-
| strained they would soon be in about the
same condition as the savage tribes o.
Africa. And in Liberty county, in THU
state, the blacks have pretty good chance
to show what they can do toward improv
ing their condition. Only recently thou
sands of them sold ell Of their effects AND
devoted their time TO worshiping a crazy
black man whom they called King Solo
mon. Bishop Turner can do the blacks nc
better service than to let them remain
where they are.
