MARvELs OF PLANT LIFE.
Botanical Curiosities That Sur.
prise the Collector.

Californian Magazine.
Nowhere is the evidence OF design in
nature more emphatically set forth than
among certain forms of plant life which,
in their various functions, seem to ap-
proach so near the animal kingdom that
the observer feels that here is some
strange plant Misunderstanding that
might possibly form connecting link
between the animals and plants.
In close study of these plants we
see many evidences of seeming intelli-
gence that are not found in some ami
mails, and so remarkable are the actions
OF certain plants that the impression is
forced upon us that we are confronted
with intelligence, or something strange
ly akin to it. In the present paper |
wish to call attention to the group
which is popularity known as carnivor-
GUS plants, or flesh eaters. A familiar
example is the little drosera, so common
IN various portions of the country. The
plant is small and inconspicuous.
The first one | ever saw caught my
eye by sudden flash of fiery red light,
and. kneeling on the damp grass. |
fairly caught the little carniVore i'm the
act which has rendered it so famous.
There were several tender, delicate
stalks in the center, and around about
1T near the ground four or five singular,
round, pad-like objects about the size of
small buttons. These were leaves, and
their upper surface was covered with
reddish tentacles that stood boldly up.
each bearing delicate drop of dew that
cleaned and glistened in the sunlight
ike yeritable garnet. Across the top
OF the leaves a long-legged, fragile in
sect lay, caught but a second before,
and dying most terrible death.
Five or six of the hair-like tentacles
were thrown across its legs and wings,
holding it down and pressing its body
nearer and nearer to the leaf. while
other rich blood-red stalks were in all
positions, bending over to encompass
the victim. The sight was horror in
miniature, and reminded me-of the ac-
tons of an octopus, or devil-fish, as the
little cephalopod is commonly called. 1t
has eight sucker-lined arms radiating
from a small, bag-shaped body, and
each arm has all the sinuOsity, all the
possibility of motion of a snake, ever
undulatlng, quivering, as if with sup
pressed emotion, while over the entire
mass waves and varied shades of color
seem to ebb and flow.

LOMBARD HAS EVIDENCE.
He and Four Policemen Find His
Wife and Her Lover.


Four big, strong policemen made raid
yesterday afternoon on Room 3, third
floor of the Central European hotel, at
ia Second avenue south, and captured
Frank Kitchler and Mrs. Viloe Lombard
in compromising position. The raid
was made at the instigation Of William
Lombard, husband of the woman. Will
lam Lombard has for nearly year
wanted evidence on which to procure
divorce from the woman now bearing
his name. Not until yesterday was
he successful. He now lives at
2407 Twentieth avenue south, ana used
to live on Second avenue north, where
he kept boarding house. That was be-
fore he and his wife had trouble. One
fine morning Frank Kitchler came to
live with them. Frank was a dashing
fellow, and soon won the favor of Mrs.
Lombard. Not long after she deserted
her husband. William was not certain
where she had concealed herself. The
police say she used to be an Inmate of
house of ill fame on Second avenue
south. Frank was her devoted cavalier.
They could not, however, conceal them
selves from the husband, who Wanled a
divorce, and who did not want to wait
the statutory three years before getting
one on the grounds of deSertion. Both
the people arrested were locked up at
the central station

Though the TraGedian Has a
Chance for Recovery.
NEW YORK, April 3o.-The condition
of Edwin Booth is not such as to give
his many friends much encouragement.
His physician is of the opinion that
MI. Booth is nearing critical
point in his malady, and that if
a recurrence of hemorrhage of the
brain, with the attendant possibilities of
Inflammation OF softening Of the brain
tissues, can be averted by careful atten-
ton, his distinguished patient may re-
cover. The do0rkeeDer was kept busy
all day answering the questions asked
by numerous visitors. Mr.. Booths con
dltion was reported at midnight to be
the same.
Edwin Booths condition late tonig ght
took sudden and decided change for
the worse and his death is now only
question of few hours. At a. III. DR..
Smith abandoned all hope of MI. Booths
recovery.

PORTERS ON STRIKE.
Those on the Docks Object to
Free" Laborers.

LONDON, April 80. = Five hundred
porters and stevedores struck yesterday
at the Victoria docks because Scrutton
Sons & Co., master porters and steve
dores, employed federation, or 'free,"
laborers. The strikers have been agi-
tating energetically, and today induced
many coalers to join them. Three
thousand dockers and laborers, in allied
trades, have decided not to strike until
the federation men or non-unionists are
withdrawn from all London docks. 1t
is doubtful that the leaders will support
them in this action. A conference of
the federated trades has been called in
haste to discuss the crisis precipitated
by the action OF the London dockers. 1t
will meet tomorrow.

VANCOUVER, B. c., April 3O.-As an
outgroWth OF the late political agitation
here, a petition was today put ID circu-
lation for the purpose of obtaining
signatures throughout all the mainland
Of British Columbia. The petition is
addressed to the governor general of
Canada and cites with dignity and
strength the wrongs of the mainland
and objects to the resources of the
province being spent in non-productive
undertakings, and suggests the Separa-
ton Of the mainland from the island as
the surest means of relief from existing
evils, and it prays his eXcellency to
veto the parliament buildings con-

A Strange Tragedy Reported

From Indiana.
INDIANAPOLIS, April 30.-A myster-
ious tragedy came to light today when
Oliver Smith and his son, the last named
only fourteen years old, were found
dead in their beds In this city. Near
the foot Of the bed lay Mr.. Smith, ap-
parently unconscious and breath
ing heavily. The father, who
was very heavy man, was
prone upon his back with his
weight thrown across the body of his
son. 1t is possible that the father may
have been seized with apopleXy and in
his fall may have smothered his son, as
his great weight would have overweight
ed the boy. Outside of this supposition
there is no explanation for the dual
death unless father and son were the
victims of foul play.

Consumption.

The S. f. Bulletin says: 1t is sig
nficant Of the general adoption by
the medical profession Of the germ
theory of consumption that resolu-
ton is to be submitted to the second
annual sanitary convention OF Cali
fornia, which meets in San Jose next
April, to include consumption in the
list of diseases dangerous to public
health and requiring notice to
the health officer by householders
and physicians. While there is
little or no room for doubt that
consumption is communicable under
certain conditions, the proposed regu-
lation would probably be of no prac-
tical benefit. The reasons why it
would be imperative and virtually a
0ead letter are almost obvious. The
observance of proper precautions in
cases Of tuberculosis might better be
left to the direction OF physicians in
attendance and to the discretion and
conscience of the patients themselves.
In many such cases there is an ele-
ment OF privacy and reserve which
should be respected. And often the
intrusion of a local health officer
would do far more harm than good.
