WORLDS FAIR HERBARKUM.
Botanist Henderson Gives Directions on
tho Collection and DRYING Of Plants.

Bofanfst Henderson Gives Directions on
tho Collection and Drying Of Plants.
Owing to the fact that a number of ladies
throughout the state. members of the
Worlds Fair clubs, are making botanical
collections of their vicinities for the pur-
pose of adjoining the display in the
women's department of the Worlds fair,
it seems desirable to have them
all work to common plan. The Worlds
fair commission has employed Professor
l.. T. Henderson, of Olympia. who is ac-
knowledged to be one of the best botanists
on the Pacific coast, to make a scientific
collection of the states fora, giving espe-
cial attention to the most useful trees,
shrubs and plants. Being asked for some
advise and instruction in the matter of
botanical collections, Professor Henderson
replied as follows:
81 suppose the ladies who are planning to
make botanical collections for exhibition wish
to make a complete scientific collection and not
one for mere beauty ana perhaps lacking sci
entlflc accuracy and consequent value. Grant
ing that this is SO, here are the requirements:
Plants must be collected both in perfect
fruit well flower.
All trees such Willows, ashes. alders. oak r.
frs, pines. etc. must be collected in mature
leaf, iruit and flower, taking care to gather both
male aud female flowers, and always from the
same tree where the plant is ,nonucious and
from closely nelghbOring trees where the plant
is diOe .iOus.
The prescribed herbarium size all over Ameri-
ca i'll the best heTbariuns, notably that of Cam
bridge, Mass, is 1G5s inches in length by Ilsz
inches in breadth. All large specimens should
therefore be collected never larger than these
sheets and, where possible to avoid, not much
smaller. Small plants should be collected I'M
quantities sufficient to fill the sheet without
crowding.
All plants should be carefully dried, being
allowed neither to burn from lack OF frequent
changing of blotters nor to crumpie from lack
of sufficient pressure. Small, delicate plants
need little pressure; thick, sucCueut plants q
great Geal, with changing of biotters twice q
day when possible.
All plants not trees nor bushes should be col
lected with the root. or part OF the root, with
every specimen. Many plants can only be dis
tinguished by the root.
Labels vary according to the taste OF the col
lector but al scientific labels should be some
what after this pattern:

Methodists Denounce tho Relic as False
and Mgrv O'Reilly Eeproves Them.

New YORK, May 2i-At the weekly
meeting of the Methodist ministers yes
terday, one of the members said 1t was
strange that the Protestants should have
stood still while part of the alleged arm
of st. Anne was exposed for the worship
of the ignorant in the Catholic church of
st. Jean Baptiste. He thought a protest
should be made. There was no proof, he
said. of the so-called relic being really
what it was represented to be. Others
spoke to the same effect, Mgr Bernard
O'Reilly, formerly domestic prelate of
Leo NIL, when told of these remarks,
said:
The body of ST. Anne was buried, according to
Bollaudist, il the tomb of the Blessed Virgin at
Jerusalem. The legend in the south OF France
is that all the relatives OF our Lord and the
Virgin Mary were banished from Palestine.
They took with them the body of st. Anne. 1t
was entombed in a subterranean chapel OF the
cathedral OF Apt, in the south OF France, by the
first bishop OF that see, in the first century.
When France was invaded by the barbarians,
A. d. 772, the vault was discovered and opened
in the presence of Charlemagne, Archbishop
Turpin and a great company of priests and
mobiles On the cypress coffin was inscribed:
"This is the body of st. Anne, mother Of the
blessed Virgin Mary" A letter OF Char
leinagne to Pope Adrian I. concerning this
discovery is eXtant The body has been kept
ever since in the cathedral OF Apt, to the great
glory OF the city. The relic recently exposed in
this city came from the right arm, which was
sent to Rome to be kept in the monastery of st.
Paul. With respect to tn Methodist ministers
who criticised US have only to say that they
should go to the Libraries and read for them
selves historical proofs of the miraculous pre-
servation OF the body of 81. Anne.

Will There BE q Panic?

Will there be panic next summer?
Let us see what the pointers are:
l. 1t is fact that every great bank
panic has occurred the year following
a presidential election.
2. 1t is a fact that once inssabout sew
en- years we have a small panic; and
once IN about twenty years big one.
3. 1t is a fact that there is a scare
ity of money and that private debts
and bank credits are piling up noun
tain high.
4. 1t is fact that the gold bugs
are triumphantly giving the thumb
screws of contraction another tarn.
5. 1t is fact that Grover Cleve-
land is going to represent Wall street
in its opposition to any relief to the
people-even to the extent of oppos.
ing free silver.
&. 1t is fact that all business is
practically being zone on credit in
stead OF for cash.
Z. 1t is fact that things are decid-
edly 'shaky" in all lines and sections
Of the commercial world.
6 1t is fact that the grab alls are
about ready for another move on the
financial chess board in the great
game of coniscating the accumula-
tons of the little fish through sheriff
and mortgage sales.
Everything points in the direction
OF panic within the next ten
months. Sentinel.

Passed from shadow out into light,
And will ne'er dwell in darkness again.

But the sunlight shall chase them away.
And soul that has turned from its error.

Bear Them in Mind.

Bear in mind the fact that twice in
five years the people have rejected
both Harrison and Cleveland.
They could not stand Cleveland in
1888, and they turned him down.
They could not stand Harrison in
1892 and they turned him down.
Both have been turned down.
1t was simply 'choice of evils"
on both occasions.
Bear in mind. also. the fact that
with all the noise and hurrahing
about Cleveland election by horde
of hungry Democratic Office seekers.
Cleveland will fall far short of a ma
jority Of the votes cast in the United
states November 8.
In other words when the votes are
officially counted it will be found
that he is a minority president
Harrison was a minority pres1-
dent" in 1888.
This shows that the people did not
want either of them. The people
were obliged to choose between the
two. simply because two political ma
chimes said: You must take the one or
the other. you have no other choice Z"
es Bear these facts in mind. Don t
forget them.

Hold Your Ground.

There is uniform sentiment per-
vadlng the whole army Of industrial
reformers that this fight for Industrial
Encouragement must go on after
election as well as before it. and
must continue until the cause is won.
This is we'll. lin time of peace pre-
pare for war; is as applicable to
peaceful politics as it is TO bloody
strife. A convention should be
called in every state when the tur-
MOL OF the present is past and a
plan OF campaign marked out and
then rigidly followed. And what
ever it is must be a campaign of ed
ucation. of real thorough education.
in which the reform newspapers and
the reform pamphlet and novel should
be made to play a leading part And
it can all be done without special sac
rifice to those engaged if they will it
so. The people can be induced to
pay for their own education by going
about the matter of making them do
So in an intelligent way. Many do
that now directly. but those that can
not be induced to do 1t in this way
can be induced to do it Indirectly
the same as they carry burdens for
the oppressor now without knowing
It. They must be lead to unload
those burdens after the same manner.
There is q plan in contemplation to
propose towards this end. We hope
to see it formulated Immediately. 1t
will give us al least powerful press
to invade the homes of those now OBJ
livious to reform principles. The
people must first know before they
can be made TO feel, and they must
feel before they can be expected to
act The reform press must be the
pioneer in the work. 1t must be. as
it has been in the past only much
more SO. the eyes. ears and tongue of
the crusade. And the reform papers
must he multiplied many fold. 1t can
be done. The plutocratic press is
now the bane of reform. it must be
made TO give way to press of prin-
ciples and truth. Examiner, Hart
