ONE of the most revolving features
of the lograut misuse OF Mr. Blount'S
name by Spreckels' Royalist friends, is
the fact that it was made by men to
whom the Minister has been invariably
kind and hospitable Scarcely day
has passed without seeing some OF
these people in his doorway. They
have been received by him, in spite OF
their persistent calling, with unwearying
courtesy, and their claims upon his
time have been granted a measure OF
consideration which they had every
reason to be thankful for No gentle
man could go much farther than Mr..
Blount has done to make them feel al
home under his r)of-and yet this
insult! HSop's viper which the hus-
bandman warmed at his hearth was

ERECTING BARRICADES.
Five barbados formed of overturned
cabs and omnibuses were erected
during the evening at various points
in the neighborhood of the Place de Ia

were in the Place de la Bastllle, Rue
de Belleville and Boulevard Menil
montant In the Place de la BastiIle
an omnibus was burned. The police,
backed by cavalry, carried the BARR
cades without difficulty in every case,
but used sabers freely. Many revolver
shots were fired, and several prisoners
had butcher knives.
The number Of wounded can only
be guessed at. The people do not
care how many policemen are wounded

TO stated treatment given by those who
grow them, cannot tell their plan, but
rom observation should judge they had
about the same care you would give
geranium.
Advice was given me last fall, to set
my lobster cactus pot in saucer and
keep it wet with very warm water.
That was to make it bloom; the plan
was adopted, and the cactus has grown
to twice the size it was before taking the
warm water system.
Later advice in the winter was, ''take
your lobster cactus next spring, and
plant in rich soil in larger pot, and you
will have a nice plant full of flowers
next winter" Experience is very
impressive teacher. might go further
and say eloquent also, so will be taught
by that great teacher on and on, ad in
finitum, and try this way.
My cereus is now owned by another
person; planted by me in large pot in
soil compc sed of a large portion of sharp
sand, about the same quantity Of pounded
charcoal, and a smaller portion Of good
rich soil, a good compost for making it
grow, as the long shoots in every di-
rection will testify. The most telling
discovery, found in cactus raising, is to
not expect them to flower and grow in a
cold wet climate, as they do in Southern
California md like ATTITUDES. Charcoal
is good thing for cactus as they will
grow in it alone. May all have better
success than the above. IRIS.

Winter Protection of Plants,

plants in the open ground in winter,

methods of protect ton p racticed at Dos

beautiful flowers and great numbers of
rare trees and shrubs. many of which
are not perfectly hardy in that northern
climate, and are carefully protected at
the expense of considerable labor, time
and material. In some instances the
protec zion consists simply Of a mulch of
leaves, manure, wood ashes, earth or
evergreen boughs. In others fence-like
wind breaks are made from the evergreen
boughs or from the canes of Arundo
donax, a reed often cultivated here in
Florida where it thrives amazingly.
Other wind breaks are made like tight
fences, of old waste boards, and are set
up and thoroughly braced on the wind
ward side of the plant or plants to be
protected. In one of the illustrations is
shown form of protection which may
be utilized in this State to save some
cherished or valuable plant or shrub
from the occasional "freeZes" we have.
