THE s. s. CHICAGO ON ROCK
All the Passengers Got Ashore
without Accident.

LONDON, July 1.-The City of Chicago
went ashore last night on the Basse
rocks about half a mile inside the ole
he ad of Kinsalc. The passengers entered
the boats in an orderly manner without
any excitement and were conveyed
ashore and thence to Queenstown, to be
sent by rail and steamer to their various
destinations.
At the time of the accident the passcn
gers, both cabin and stccrage, were
nearly all up and many of them were or
deck expecting, when the fog should
clear, to enjoy the view ofthe Irish coast
Suddenly rasping sound was heard
and the ship quivcrcd from end to end
There was hardly any one that did not
understand what had happened, but al
had confidence i'll the officers, and whilt
laughter gave way to sober anxiety
there was no panic, no rush for the boats
or even for life pcrservers.
Capt. Bedford took time to give WORD
to the passengers that they were in nc
danger whatever. His GOODNESS reassuret
the doubling, and the passengers
curiously but quietly watched the further
proceedings.
When it became evident that the rescue
of the steamer could not be accom-
plished in short time steps were take1
to land the mails and passengers. Pas
sengers were taken ashore in small boats

The trades display and procession to
take place in Asheville on the night OF
August II, during the celebration of the
one hundredth anniversary of Buncombe
county, is expected to be brilliant one.
The business men are taking great inter-
est in the matter.
Several firms have engaged Senor p. A.
Casanave y Pineda, an artist now in
the city, to decorate their floats with
historical pictures representing Asheville
and Buncombe county through the past
century. The Senor took large part in
the decorating of floats for the Mardi

that he will be employed by the centen
NAL committee to do all of the work il
this line. In the style proposed the dis
play can be made doubly attractive.

CARING FOR THE FLOWERS.

Do not crowd the plants in window
boxes.
ROTATION is advised in the flower gar
den as we'll as in the vegetable garden.
BE sure and set the young plants in
fresh loose soil and do not forget to
firm the earth close about the plants.
WHENEVER this is practicable do your
transplanting after sunset and just
before rain. Remember that short
stochy plants make the most vigorous
growth.
THE results of experiments on hasten
ing the termination of seed show that
camphor and oxygenated water appear
to be the most energetic excitants, not
only as regards the accclcration of ger
mination. but as affecting the vigor OF
the plants.
