WELL! DID YOU EVER ?
HA RRISON NAMES a DEMO
Graf TO SUCCEED IA MAR.

Ht's Judge Jackson of Tennessee
Perhaps The President DID 1t
TO ne Able TO Name n Exepuh-
IiCan To Succeed Jackson.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-[Special. 1.-The |
President has nominated Howell E Jack |
sonof Tennessee to be Associate Justice of
the Supreme court to succeed the late L. |
Q. c. Lamar.
Signs are not wanting to indicate a
difficulty ahead in the Senate over Jack
sons nomination. There was special
meeting of the Senate Judiciary commit
tee this morning. The purpose of the
call was not related to the nomination.;
but when it was proposed that favor
able report be made upon it, there was
some show Of opposition from the DEM
ocratic side and the nomination went
over under the rules of the committee.
AS far as can be learned, the opposition
does not touch Judge Jackson's character
or fitness, even his Democracy, but is
| based upon objection formed on gen
eral principles. some Democrats having
taken the position that it was not
| proper for outgoing President to fill
| life places of such Importance.
| There is no question that Senator's on
| both sides of the chamber are deeply
concerned by the probability of the no M
| ination of a Republican circuit Judge to
| succeed Judge Jackson, the Democrats
being determined in advance to resist the
| installation of Republican on the
Southern circuit, and the Republicans
fearing that they will have a hard strug-
gle to confirm such a nomination at this
late stage in I he session.
Il Howell Edmonds Jackson was born in
Paris, Tenn, April 8, 1882. In 1910 he
removed to Jackson. Tenn, was gradua'
; ted at the West Tennessee college in
$40 and passed two years in the Uni
| versity of Virginia. In 1856 he received
his diploma at the Lebanon law schoo
and began practice at Jackson. He re
moved to Memphis in 1859 and was
+ twice appointed judge of the State Su
E preme court. He returned to Jack
} son in 1876 and was elected
: a representative in the Legislature i,
r 1880. He was elected United State
r Senator from Tennessee for the term be
ginning March 4, 1881 resigned in 1886
and in March of that year was appo inte'
by President Cleveland United State
! District Judge for the Western distric
n of Tennessee.

A Rochdale correspondent writes:
"The Friends meeting house in Roch-
dale, known as the place of worship OF
John Bright, is not as well attended as
it was Many of the Quaker families
have died out or become dispersed.
The Brights are in many places, and
the same is to be said Of many OF the
Friends of former days. Among them
are the Kings. Mr.. John Bright was
on terms of close intimacy with the
late Mr. James King, man well known
in Rochdale, but little heard of outside
the borders of his town. They had
much in common-were of the same
persuasion, active supporters Of pcpu-
lar education long before the education
act was passed, members of the Peace
society and liberals. AS young men
they went together on tour to the
holy land in 1885. The Kings have
now left Rochdale, and their mill is to

A TYPICAL ITALIAN GARDEN.

1t Is the Beautiful and Picturesque
villa Lante at Bagnia.
The most complete example OF the
Italian villa, that is, the one best pre-
serving its original FORM is the Villa
Lante. at Bagnia, not far from Viterbo.
The flower garden is southwest from
the house, or rather houses, there being
two, one for domestic purposes and the
other for entertainments These are
at either end of the terrace which over
looks the garden. The principal street
of the town leads directly up to the
gate, upon entering which one finds
oneself in the midst of a profusion OF
flowers. and facing fountain which
makes the central feature of the gar
den. The fountain consists of group
of bronze figures on circular base sur
rounded by four large basins, which re-
ceive the falling water. Looking be-
yond the fountain, the eye Is led, by
means of series of terraces and fount-
aims between the two houses, to the
highest part OF the land: this is thiclxly
covered with trees, which form back
ground for the architectural features
The garden proper covers about an
acre OF ground, but so large space Is
taken up by the fountain and its sur
rounding embellishments that the ac-
tual space for planting IS much less
than one would imagine a magnih-
cent box hedge, very dense and high,

The Little Lads Answer.

Dur little lad came in one day
With dusty shoes and tired feet
his piaytime had been hard and long
Out III the summers noontide heat
SIN glad I'm home" he cried, and hung
His torn straw hat up in the hall,
While in a corner by the door
He put away his bat and ball.
OF wonder why" his auntie said.
''ihis little lad always comes hero
When there are many other homes
As nice as this, and quite as near"
He stood a moment, deep in thought
Then, with love-light in his eye,
He pointed where his mother sat,
And said: "She lives here, that is whyI"
With beaming face the mother heard;
Her mother-heart was very glad
A true, sweet answer he had given
That thoughtful, loving little LAD.
And well 1 know that hosts Of lads
Are just as loving true and dear:
That they would answer as he did:
"'Tis home, for mothers living here"

COLOR AND SEASON.

The Result OF an Interesting but Limited
Observation by Canadian.
A charming occupation for the minds
and ewes of all who love flowers is sug-
gested by recent investigation made
in Canada concerning the relation OF
floral colors to the time Of the flower
ing. Mr.. A. Z. Drunmond announces
as the result of his observations on this
subject that April, May and June, and
to some extent July, are remarkabl
for the prevalence of white flowers
In July the yellow flowers begin to
prevail and their reign seems to culml-
nate in August, which is the month par
excellence of golden hues. In Septen-
Der and October the ascendancy passes
to blue and purple blossoms
| One cannot help noticing that this
| march of color among the flowers car
rying them from white in the spring to
| blue in the autumn, recalls the sup
| posed progression of age among the
stars as indicated by their colors-
| 1t has been generally thought, al
! though the fact has not yet been finally
demonstrated, that the white stars are
the youngest. the yellow stars rep
resent the mid-season OF solar life, and
that the deeply colored stars, red, pur-
| pie and blue, are those which are fast
/ passing into decadence. If this is true,
then in the heavens also we may say
white is the color of springtime and
purple the badge of the season of de-
cay.
But Mr.. Drummond's observations on
the flowers pertain only to those which
flourish in the provinces of Quebec and
Ontario. There is peed of additional
investigation of this interesting sub
| ject, and every one who has sufficient
love for the beautiful objects of nature
| should observe and report the results
