There is nothing easier than to
graft one cactus upon another. One
of the main things to be observed
is to keep the grated plant in the
light, but away from too much
sunshine and wind, giving no
water at all for at least a month,
and after that occasionally only.
Then when the graft has we'll
started transplant from the sand
into good, rich loan. 1t is mis-
take to suppose that cactus love
poor soil. They like dry clay soil
as rule. In graftiag the Epi-
phyllum lobster cactus) upon the
Candle cactus, for instance, take
the intended graft and with a very
sharp knife carefully pare the skin
as high up as is intended to insert
it, then make an incision into the
top at side Of the stem and after
putting in the graft, being careful
not to bruise it, tie carefully with
soft cotton cord. Some people in
sert a toothpick through the stem
and the graft to keep it from slip.
ping out. II these rules are OBJ.
served you will have a nice plant
by the next winter with hundreds
of red Holsters upon it.

(BY REV. n. SCHULTZ

notice that many people in San
Antonio are already pruning their
roses. This is rather early on &C
count of the danger of frost. The
young buds which will swell soon
after the pruning are too tender to
withstand the northers which are
almost sure to come, and thus the
plant will suffer more injury than
it would if pruning is being done
later. Prune after the danger of
severe northers is passed. Two and
three year old roses should be
pruned back to, say five to seven
eyes, or about a foot from the
ground. Older roses should be
thinned out. Leave the strongest
ground shoots and those that are
youngest and hardest. Don't be
afraid to cut back. They will soon
sprout again more vigorously than
ever and their crop of flowers will
be richer and fuller. Climbing
roses ought not to be pruned ex.
cept where there is dead wood to
be removed.

THE CARRINGTON PUBLISHING co.

Wright reported that In his opinion the
West river marshes were detrimental
to the public health. At the last meet
ing of the board the health officer was
appointed a committee to investigate
and report. Yesterday his report Gre
ated considerable discussion. DR..
Fleischner and the other physicians Of
the board were of the opinion that they
were not a menace to the health of the
community. The lay members of the
board conceded with the views of the
health officer and in consequence of the
disagreeing opinions it was voted to ta-
BILE the entire matter.
During the meeting it was stated that
the city attorney was lax in bringing
prosecutions in cases of violations re-
ported to him by the board Of health
and in view of this the members de-
cided to ask the court of common coun-
ell to transfer the unexpended balance
from tahe garbage account to the con-
gent fund, so that it could be used by
the board Of health in prosecuting caseH
Of violation of the health law.

superintendent Byrnes Tells a Story of IA
Prisoners Dealings
New York, March 26.-Superintenden
Byrnes told in the detective bureau to-
day OF the capture of the man who is
accused of defrauding Brouwer & Nc
Gowan, brokers in the New York stock
exchange, with offices at No. 2 Wall
street, out of $4,000 The prisoner is
George d. Burton of Boston, Mass,
where he was arrested Sunday night
Last December he was introduced by
George e. Bell to Brouwer & MCGOWAN
as an electrician connected with the
Boston Heating and ForP4 Hg company
He said he wanted to get SIS, 900 to put
into the company for which he worked,
and offered to pay $1,000 bonus for the
loan He got the $4,000 in three notes,
but instead of using them as collateral,
as he had promised, he sold the notes,
and they are now in the possession of
the innocent purchasers
This, however, was not the extent of
Burton's trick. The $1,50O bonus paid
by him was check for $500 on the Mar
ket National bank Boston, and draft
for ST. 900 on himself. Both papers were
found to be worthless. Detectives have
been searching for Burton ever since,
but he is not a professional criminal and
it was difficult to trace him. Detective
Rynder got him in the New England
house, Boston, last Sunday and brought
him here.
Burton was taken to the district at
torney's office to-day in the custody of
Detective Sergeant Won Gerichten. He
was held to be arraigned before Judge
Fitzgerald in general sessions.
Mr. Brouwer of Brouwer & MCGOWAN
said this afternoon: Burton Is repu-
table man, and quite prominent in Pos
ton. He is president of the United
States Electrical Forging company Of
that city and the senior member of the
George d. Burton Heating and Forging
He is the inventor of the
Burton stock car, which is used exten-
sIvely by the railroads for the transfer
OF live stock. Why he did this I do
rot know. 1 suppose he was in flnan-
cial straits and overreached himself
probably.

NO OBJECTIONS ARE MADE.
SENIOR DE LONE WILL SOON BE
SPALN'S NEW MINISTER.

Secretary Gresham Finds No Fault With
the Appointment-The Late Minister VIII
Leave Washington With No Regrets-He
Had Much Trouble.
Washington, March 26.-In his dis
patch accepting Minister Maruaga's
resignation the new prime minister of
Spain requested that Senior Muruaga
ask Secretary Gresham if Dupuy de
LONE would be acceptable as his sue
cessor. Senior Muruaga sent a note to
the secretary in which was Incorporated
the inquiry. To this note reply was
received last evening stating that Senior
de LONE would be in every way ac-
ceptable to the administration. The
substance of the secretary's note was
at once cabled to Madrid. 1t is expected
that Senior de LONE will arrive in Wash
ington about the 18th prox. Senior
Muruaga will discharge the functions
of minister until that time.
The senior will leave Washington with
no regrets. His duties for several
months have not been enviable. He
has been diligent in his endeavors to
prevent, the shipment of munition of
war from the United States to the in
surgents in Cuba. He has been fully
advised by the Spanish consuls at the
various seaports of the country as to
the movements of the Cuban sympa
thizers in the United States, but he
has not succeeded in all cases in pre-
venting their successful operations. 1t
is not doubted that Secretary Gresham,
acting through the department of jus
tice, has labored zealously to prevent
any infraction of our neutrality laws
and to discourage any aid and comfort
being given the rebels against friendly
power.
But it is undeniable that his efforts
have not always been successful and
the result has been to place the Span
ish minister in an awkward position
with the home government. The en-
barrassments under which he has la
bored have not been fully appreciated
there, but on the contrary he has been
severely riticised for his lack of success
in dealing with Cuban affairs
There is no foundation for the be-
lief that Secretary Gresham has noti-
fled the Madrid government that Senior
Muruaga is no longer acceptable to
him. What the secretary's opinions
may have been of some of the published
attributed to the minister
the Allianca affair is not
known, but he has not officially taken |
cognizance of them.
