FLOWER GARDENS IN ITALY.
Some of the Effects OF Rare Beauty In
Various Villas

Some of the Effects OF Rare Beauty in
Various villas
The Villa Mutt had once the most
varied system Of flower gardens OF any
villa in Italy. The house is literally
surrounded by them, all at different
levels, and one might walk out of any
story of the house and find ones self in
a charming garden. The villa has now
gone to almost absolute decay, and
only the vaguest outlines of the ar
rangemeiits Of these gardens can be
discovered. There is therefore very
little there which could be SO repro
duced as to convey any idea OF what
had been. The "bosquet" is on a ter
race resting above the upper garden.
and is reached by fine stairway.
which begins in full sunlight and ends
in the heart Of the grove in the densest
shade. The reservoir is above this, and
has seats about it. There are two
villas in Frascati belonging to the
Borghese family, one Of which, the
Villa Taverna. has been kept up as s
family residence, and the other, Mon
dragone, is now occupied by Jesuit
school The palace and the scale of
the gardens of the latter are OF great
size; but with the exception of a fine
terrace in front of the house, and an
avenue Of expresses which leads up to
II from the public road, there is moth
ing ia<t but architectural details. The
walls and forhtain OF the old garden
still exist, and also pavilion and col
onnade of remarkable dignity at one
end of it; but the razed partcrre is now

The villa Taverna has very charn1-
ing flower garden. which is reached
from one wing of the house. 1t is raised
above the road and is, in fact, fnclosed
and supported by architecture SO that it
seems TO be literally an apartment OF
the house. The central fountain here
is a very handsome one surrounded by
laurels cut in a circular form. There
are some interesting fountains let into
the wall, and the balustrade which con-
meets the garden and the houSe Is
very good one Beyond this there u
little here to detain one, though path
which leads from the house to the grove
is interesting on account OF the unusual
open character given it by the use OF
deciduous trees-something quite un-
usual in Italian villas.
With such magnificent views, and
with slopes so delightfully."- accidented,
| It seems it would be difficult for an art
ist-gardener not to produce beautiful
results, particularly as the Italians in
their construction of summer villas
rarely allowed ideas of convenience to
| interfere with their desire to produce
a beautiful effeot.-Charles A. Platt, in
Harper's Magazine.

WHY USE TIME CHECKS?

Inconvertible Paper Money and Govern
ment Banks VIII Fill the Bill.
The peoples party has been saved
from what threatened it's ruin. Saved
by an impending defeat. When the
Silver debate began two weeks ago it
appeared to many observers that the
populists were SO entangled in the
meshes of "free silver" that only costly
experience would show them the error
of all palliative measures that left the
Capitalist system intact. The two
weeks delay has enlightened no party
more than it has the rank and file OF
the populists. To-day they realize
more clearly than ever before that the
hind Of money or the quantity Of money
is not the main issac between pro-
ducers and capitalist robbers
Had the populists been granted their
financial demands they would have a
little temporary relief, but capitalists
would have the final proceeds. So with
their other demands, which are but
palliatives. The mercilsss power of
money which defeats them now has
done them the greatest favor by nm
masking itself. 1t has convinced earn
est populists that there is no stopping
place for the producer short of the
complete overthrow of capitalist pro-
duction and the complete acceptance
of the cooperative common wealth.
Not all Of the party see this, but there
appears an unmistakable tide within
the last few days that augers well for
q spread of radical doctrines.
They recognize the defect of free
coinage of silver as already accom-
plished. It is only to formally an
nounce it by the vote. No other ratio
can or will be considered by peoples
party man than the one now coined.
If the silver mine owners accept any
other ratio they part company. The
idea of intrinsic value in coin has
passed, and to-day the idea of metallic
money holds only a minority of the
populists. Judged by its cost of pro
duction, even at 16 to 1 ratio, it costs
no more to produce five dollars worth
of gold bullion than five dollars in sill
YER Both would exchange at their
labor cost much below the value rated
as coin, and as the coin superstition
passes there appears a disposition to
drop both metals. The proposition OF
the silver men to accept a ratio of 20 to
has opened the eyes of populists to
the fact that there is a profit to the
mine owner at that ratio, as his work
ing miners must work for coal mine
wages hereafter.
One populist exchange comes to ms
fom Portland, Ore, with startling
headlines: "We demand the free and
unlimited coinage of potatoes" They
have evidently seen the cat

The Arena, one of the abfest raags-

''Our country never needed broad
