A SPLENDID SCHEME.

A news article in THE TINES recently states
that Messrs. John F. Waggaman, John W..
Thompson, Francis G. Newlands, and some
"Boston capitalists" have bought about 400
acres of land in the extreme northwestern
part of the District for about 1000, ,000 and
that they propose to lay it off, open up and
improve streets, put in water, gas, sewers,
concrete pavements, trees, etc. "Whether or
not building operations will form part of the
improvements cannot be learned" "Mr. Wag-
gaman really wishes to make a new CITY,"
"There will be employment for hundreds of
men, and the large sums of money paid them
will help along the business interests Of the
city," SIT will pay handsome return to those
who are bold enough to invest their money"
This is most excellent scheme. for Messrs
Waggaman, Thompson, Newlands, ct al.
They are sharp shrewd business men; they
know their business. They own the land;
they will secure appropriations of District
funds to make the improvements: the improve
ments; the improvements will enormously
increase the value Of the land; they will sell
the lots at enormous profits. Thus the Dis
trict revenues, raised by system Of taxation
which imposes most of the taxes on tenants
and consumers-working people-will be used
to turn golden stream amounting to millions
Of dollars into the pockets of a few men
already millionaires.

SOFT CRABS AS A CAsUs BELL.

According to the veracious Knickei booker
history the Dutch governors of New Amster-
dam were kept in perpetual hot water by the
depredations of their piratical neighbors, the
New Englanders. and on one occasion great
battle was fought over the oyster beds of Long
Island, in which the sturdy Dutchmeh were
the victors.
History repeats itself. For many years fierce
war has been waged to preserve the oyster
beds of Virginia from the piratical incursions
of the degenerate scions of Lord Baltimore.
After the great naval engagement of last
Winter, in which the Maryland pi rates were
so signally worsted. we supposed that hos
tilities were ended. But the struggle has
broken out afresh over the toothsome Vir-
ginia soft crab, which the Maryland poachers
are now feloniously approprating.
That redoubtable confederate warrior, Gov
ernor 0'Ferrall, has expressed his dete rmIna-
tion to protect the soft crabs even at the ex-
pense of all the blood and treasure OF the Old
Dominion. He has applied successfully to
the authorities at Washington for an outfit of
rapid-fring guns and ammunition with which
to carry on the war.
Is not this clear case for congressional
interference and investigation? What never
ending themes our Senators would have for
defamation They could fight over the whole
war of the rebellion with great satisfaction
to themselves. if not profit to the country.
1t would, at least, vary the monotony, and be
a relief from tariff discussion

OUT FROM THE JAWS OF DEATH.

Mr.. A. C. Chewing. the gentleman who
was found unconscious in the Smithsonian
grounds and suffering from the lack of food
is progressing favorably in the Emergency
hospital, and it is believed that he will be
able to be about in few days. Since his case
has become known generally a great many
contributions have been received for his ben
efit and contributions of cash were sent to
his wife. That lady. however, arrived in the
city yesterday, and is now with her husband.
Several positions have been offered to the
man when he shall be able to work. and alto
gether the prospects for this much-affiicted
pair and their children are much brighter
than they were a few short days ago.
Among the contributions sent in for their
aid we are glad to learn that quite sum was
collected at the Government Printing Office.
The hard-working people OF this department
are always ready to respond to the calls of
the suffering and at this time, when heir
scant earnings are still further curtailed by
numerous furloughs during the winter. their
act is the more praiseworthy.

expended in public improvements 1t ia prob
able that here is where the greater part Of
those public Improvements will be made.
What should be done about it?
Should such improvements be stopped2
No.
The TIMES wants to see our city become
the grandest and most beautiful in the world.
1t wants to see harmonious development Of
public improvements on scale immensely
larger than any yet proposed.
But it does not want to see the expense Of
such improvements imposed on the working
people and the benefit accrue as profit to mil
honaires.
There is simple, easy and just remedy for
this enormous evil. 1t is to meet the expense
of all public improvements by the taxation Of
lands exclusive of improvements.
II this remedy were applied, the people
would get the benefit Of all improvements,
and, while such gentlemen would be amply
compensated for the service actually per-
formed in planning to meet public needs, they
would not reap the enormous profits they
otherwise would.
Knowing how influential" the gentlemen
named are We predict that they will get the
appropriation they ask for, and they will find
their investment rs profitable as they an
ticipate. But we wish to warn those not in
the ring that if they invest they will prob
ably find, as hundreds of gudgeons have
found, that those who profit by such schemes
are the projectors, and that those not in on
the strictly ground floor will never get Sin il. !"

IT'S DERBY DAY.
England's Greatest Horse Race to Be Run
To-day.


LONDON, June 5-To-morrow will see the rum
ming of the greatest horse race in the world, the
Derby In whatever part Of the world there is
an Englishman the result Of the race will be
eagerly looked for, while here every person who
can possibly do so will go to EPSON Downs to see
this great test Of all equine contests
For many years it was the custom of the
House of Commons to adjourn over Derby Day,
but in 1892, owing to the great press OF business,
precedent then established was followed last
year, and will be followed tomorrow Not
withstanding this fact, however, II Is generally
expected that Derby Day this year will be
marked by greater concourse of people than
has ever before been gathered on the Downs
The extraordinary interest manifested in the
race is due to the fact that Prime Minister Rose
bery's bay colt Ladas is entered for the race,
and his performances thus far in the present
season lead TO the belief that he will be most
dangerous competitor for the 5000 sovereigns
and the honor that go to the winner.
The entries. which closed on July 10, 1892, COM
prsed 226 subscribers, IFS of whom at the time
the racing calendar was issued had signified
their intention to pay forfeit. Other scratch
tngs have since been announced. and even to-
night IL is not positively known how many horses
will go the post, put the number will be small
An interesting feature in connection with the
race Tomorrow Is that there is "A strong proba-
bility that the third part of the prophecy e.
garding himself made by Lord Rosebery in his
college days Will be fulfilled Years ago he said
that he would marry the richest heiress OF ner
time, that he would become Prime Minister, and
that one of his horses would win the Derby. The
first two parts of his prophecy have already
been fulfilled, and the opinion of the betting
fraternity Is that tomorrow will see the compile
zion of the third part.

Democrats Pushing Claims of New Mexico,
Republicans Those of Oklahoma.
The supporters of bills for the advancement
have not lost courage. Several times in the
course of the present session, the two terri
tories have been on the eve of receiving con-
sideration from the House. but each time they
were sidetracked 10y more important legisla-
ton or party MISUNDERSTANDING. Bills for
the admission OF Utah and Arizona We're
passed by the House early in the session. hut
have since been hung up in the Senate. There
was an attempt at the same time made by the
Republicans TO secure an agreement for the
consideration OF the New Mexico and Okla
homa bills together but Speaker Crisp told
Delegate Flynn that a point OF order would be
in order against such an arrangement. ami
that being undoubtedly the case the attempt
was abandoned.
The Speaker has assured Gen Wheeler, the
chairman OF the Committee on Territories,
the bill for New Mexico can secure hearing
after the Indian appropriation bill, which
cones up this week. The Oklahoma bill will
follow that for New Mexico. unless unfore-
seen circumstances arise to delay one or both.
New Mexico is Democratic. and if admitted
will add two TO the Democratic majority i'll
the Senate. but Oklahoma is Republican, 50
that the success of the bill for the admission
OF the latter territory is very doubtful. More
over there has been much disagreement in
Oklahoma over the details of the statehood
plan, which has been complicated by the op-
rosition Of Indian tribes to it. Republicans
have feared that if the New Mexico bill was
passed other legislation would be pressed
forward TO displuce Oklahoma; therefore it
would be to their satisfaction to secure con-
sderation of the case of Oklahoma first.

FLOWERS, SHRUBS AND TREES.

Hardy, perennial phloxes are fine plants for
u permanent garden.
A bed of hydrangeas on the lawn or In the
background is very pretty.
Tea roses are not expensive and a bed of
them gives great deal OF pleasure.
Cherries seem to be the only fruit that will
grow to advantage around Chicago.
Chinese pinks are biennials of easy growth
and their co.ors are the richest imaginable.
If your Easter lily boomed this year throw
it away. 1t will not amount to anything next
year.
A brier rose, though not desirable for its
flowers. which are single. spreads fragrance
all around through its foliage.
Plant large trees il you can afford it. though
smaller ones are easier to start into growth
after transplanting.
Pansies can be treated as biennials If given
a covering OF straw in Winter. II the seed 10
sown now they will not flower till Fall.
Some fruits are not profitable in a small
garden. There are any number OF vegetables
that will give better returns for the amount
of room.
Start a rock-bed if you can. Innumerabls
varieties of plants can be grown, but the tall
nasturtium will give a grand effect with the
least of care.
Plant lew tuberose bulbs in your garden
after danger from frost is past and you will
be delighted next Fall with their fragrance
Get them from a reliable dealer, as the bulbs
flower but once and you are liable to be de-
ceived if you buy cheap ones.
If you can't have garden try veranda
boxes. Make them foot deep, foot wide
and length TO suit. You can grow geraniums,
begonias. petunias, nasturtiums, mignonerte,
lobelia wandering Jew, German iyy sweet
alyssum. coleus, abutilon. fuchsias. hellio-
tropes. variesated tradescantia. oxalis, and;so
on. Put those that require the sun on the
sunny side, and you can find plenty that will
grow in the shade, if so situated.
