Dem Hole on Roses.

Dean Hole is one of the most success
full rosegrowers in England. He was
recently interviewed as to their care
and said:
ga spot should be found that is shell
tered without being shaded. Every
overhanging tree is as a upas treo to n
rose. Get spot where the sun shines
warmly on the sheep and the wind is
tempered to the shorn lamb. Avoid
drips and roots. Manure in winter and
mulch in spring. In the summer months
let them be well watered below and
we'll sprinkled two or three times q
week. Let all insects be removed. When
the ground is clayey, drain it well, for
when water stagnates about tho roots
of n plant they cannot receive air or
warmth. Cat your drains with Il good
fall, straight four feet deep. Burnt clay,
I find, produces permanent friability in
soils -
The doctor considers his method of
burning clay excellent. He keeps all
prunings, bones and vegetable matter
together and makes them into fire,
putting an old tree stump on top. This
he covers with clay, renewing it as the
fire breaks through; suppresses tho
flames, and after burning fortnight
blends the ashes with the soil.
AS to the manures, he thinks SCOT cX-
cellent for tea roses, which grow to such
outdoor perfection in England. Au
tumn leaves are good for Bourbons. He
does not care so much for tea leaves as
the friend Of his who drenched the roots
with the contents of the teapot that she
might have tea scented Chinas." The
best manure of all he thinks is the
refuse heap Of the farmyard.

Mr.. Finlayson, town clerk of Stirling,
was noted for the marvellous III CONVEX

Monteith and Airth, at his castle in
Taha, on the loch of Monteith, and was
about taking leave, when he was asked
by the earl whether he had seen the

"No,'' said Finlayson. "What sort
Of thing is it?''

a stone the bird had swallowed, and
which she bears about with her in voy-
ages round the loch. 1t is just at pres

flavor. Now, Finlayson," he added,
"can you, with all your power of mem
DRY and fancy, match the story of the
cherry tree?''
Perhaps I CAM said Finlayson,
clearing his throat, adding: "When
Oliver Cromwell was at Airth, one of
the cannon sent a ball to Stirling and
lodged it in the mouth of a trumpet
which one of the troops in the castle

"Was the trumpeter killed." said the

Decision Called For.
Passed each portal, there was grind
ing OF locks and a showing of bolts, and
the scenery Oh either side Of the road
changed from gardens to deserts, and
the June air became cutting December
blast, and the bright wings of the bad
angel turned to sackcloth, and the eyes
of light became hollow with hopeless

start had tossed with wSne, poured forth

on the right side of the road there was

answer was, THAT is the serpent of

and the answer was, ''That is the vul-

And then the man began to try to
pull off him the folds Of something that
had wound him round and round, and
he said to the bad angel, ''What is it
that twists me in this awful convolu-
tion?" and the answer was, THAT is
the worm that never dies. " And then
the man said to the bad angel: "What

her voice. Napoleon fell in love with it

estimate was placed on the value of her
services, not only as an instructor, but
as social and moral influence, that her

Some action should be taken this
summer in regard to better fire protec-
tion for Birvanton. That is the only
part of the borough where the force of
water from the mains is not sufficient to
reach the tops of the houses The
property owners there are not yet asking
for sewers or anything else that will
entail expense, but they do feel the
necessity of having their homes better
secured against fire. The last blaze on
the Hill showed the danger and the in
ability of the present apparatus to cope
with it, There is nothing to be gained
by delay, for something must be done
sooner or later, and the borough council
cannot act too quickly in giving Birvan-
ton people protection of some kind

he addressed her thus: "Come along
with me" and preceded her ladyship
to dinner. But the presidency, Pre-
toria, is not Mayfair; and even at Gov
ernment house, Natal, presidents may,
and do, disdain forks, misuse serviettes,
and fail to grasp the true import of
fnger-bowl.
At recent conference on the vexed
question of Swaziland between Sir
Henry Loch and his honor, the latter,
when dining with the high compsis-
sioner of our gracious majesty, stoutly
refused Perier and Jouet, preferring
the charms of a mixture of milk and
water-a remnant of his patriarchal up
bringing. And cigars! Uncanny things
for a Boer president, who smoked
capacious pipe charged with Boer to-
bacco to conteract the evil fumes of
"Flor Fina."
In his modest home at Pretoria,
one-storied, low-roofed building, ap-
propriately situated opposite the Dop-
per church, where he and Mrs. Kruger
are regular attendants, they dispense
homely but hearty hospitality, which is
not to be wondered at, when the presi-
dents salary is g7,00O per annum, with
an allowance of $500 for coffeel Coffee
Is the favorite and almost exclusive
beverage of his subjects, and on the
stoop, or open veranda of the presi-
dency, surrounded by public offices
which cost $4,000, President Kruger
puffs his pipe, sips his coffee, and ma
lures schemes which puzzle and per-
plex the minds of British and colonial
diplomats, who can do much, but they
can't circumvent the burgher president.
Mrs. Kruger Is, like the majority of
Dutch women, very stout, and was
born and bred in the Transvaal. The
daughter of Mr.. Oppermann, one of the
old burghers who are gradually dying
out, she is an able and sympathetic
helpmate to the president In his dis
pensing Of coffee and shaking of hands,
which is indulged in to an alarming ex-
tent in Boerland. Her disposition is
very sweet; ever ready to give help
ing hand to need and poverty in the
capital. There is little to chronicle Of
her, because she possesses those true
womanly virtues which shun unneces-
sary publicity, and find their true
sphere In the domestic circle of the
presidency at Pretoria.

PRESIDENT KRUGER.
The Rustic Chief Exc cutive Of the
South African Republic.
His Administrative Capacity Is Marvel
Gus, But as n Society Man He Is a
Dismal Failure His Homo
Life at Pretoria.

His honor, the president of the South
African republic, writes cores
pondent OF the Gentlewoman, is one OF,
II not the most, remarkable characters
at present occupying the political stage
of South Africa. The Transvaal, over
whose destinies President Kruger
watches, is the richest gold bearing re-
gion in South Africa, If not In the
'world-an independent Dutch republic
founded by the Beers who were ousted
from the Cape colony by what they
were pleased to term English misrule.
Their bitter antipathy to British mis-
appropriation of a territory colonized
and conquered by their fathers drove
them further afield to the unexplored
tracks beyond the Vaal river, where as
Gods chosen people they could read
their Bibles, and harass the natives, far
away from Cape officialism.
Unlike his neighbor president, Mr..
Reitz, of the Orange Free state (an-
other thriving offshot of Dutch seces-
sion), who is a man of academic and
forensic standing, Mr.. Kruger's mar
velous administrative capacity is based
solely on his native and unframed
talents. He is sixty-eight years of age,
Boer of the Beers, shrewd, obstinate,
combining the gaucheries of an Eng
lish rustic with an amazing astuteness
which would become many n skilled
diplomat. Ungainly of figure, South
African james the First, he is gifted
with far more caution than the Stuart
monarch. He shines more at the coun-
Gil than the social board; In fact, he de-
tests social functions, and many are the
true anecdotes of his solecisms and &C.
centricities.
When visiting the neighboring colony
of Natal on one occasion, he and Mrs.
Kruger firmly refused sumptuous
lunch prepared by loyal township en-
route, and, to the CONSERVATION of the
caterers, proceeded to discuss a chunk
of dried eef-'biltong"-and equally
dry bread which was produced from the
presidential pocketl When at Govern
ment house, in Natal, his honor was

gin to drop into New York to make
final purchases for the journey. 1t is
interesting to study these excurs1onists.
They are typical citizens, and more
than half of them will drop few tears
as they wave their hats, handlerchiefs
and flags and say good-by to those left
behind on the pier. Not man, woman
or child of them but has love of coun-
try. They are supplied with all the
remedies for seasiclness, but nothing
that prevents inconsistencies.
From one little town comes the old
doctor, He has worked hard perhaps
for forty years, and has planned time
and again to spend few months in
Europe. The time has come at last.
He has pushed collections, got q neigh
Dor to take his practice and had his life
well insured, and now he Is away.
There may be no one on the pier that he
knows and all his folks may be at home,
but he climbs up into the rigging and
waves his hat and hurrahs like boy,
and the cold wind makes him wipe his
eyes.
The majority of these people are mid
dle-aged. One sees on board many O
husband and wife. Occasionally these
are accompanied by small family OF
nearly grown children. All of the pas
sengers have personal experiences to
relate. One old man tells of having
saved money all his life for such trip,
and now that his wish is to be gratified
he Is so thankful that he wants every
one to know it.
In the crush q family have become
separated. The father wants to be
sure the son is aboard, and the wife,
nervous lest she shall lose both hus-
band and son, objects to his leaving
her. The fretting lasts but moment,
for the boy turns up all right Some
OF the folks from up the state and near
by are accompanied by friends, many
of opposite sexes. They frequently
hold hands, and some stand with arms
around each other. Many of these
people have never seen steamship be-
fore, much less the ocean. They are
disappointed at the size of the vessel
Before sailing time many acquaint-
ances are made. The ship does not go
out like a regular liner. The first warn
ing whistle for visitors to leave has
little effect. Time and again the sig
nal is given, but the crowd won't go.
One makes a remark about the cold
weather and another comforts him by
saying that three weeks from Sunday
they will be In Jerusalem. Then some
one starts three cheers, no one knows
what for, but all hurrah in time, but
late. The ship baelss out and hundreds
of little flags are waving good-by,

With it's assistance the young slsetcher
out of doors can get his perspective

help for drawing the interior Of a

too, can be traced on the ground glass
before they can change, and the picture
or sketch thus obtained can readily be
enlarged by anyone. Proceed In the
following manner:

Transatlantic Dxcursious and Peo-
Pile Who Go on Them.
sceses at the Departure from New York.
Provincial Districts Arc Relied Upon
Chiefly to Furnish tho Passen-
gers of the Ship.

The outgoing ocean steamers on
regular lines are not carrying many
passengers these days, says the New
York Sun, but an occasional transat-
lantic excursion starts with a full
complement. To witness the departure
of such steamer will convince one
that the United States as u nation Is
far from being in pecuniary straits
Excursions to New Orleans, Florida or
Montreal may be considered as side
trips in comparison with a tour of
many thousands of miles, crossing the
ocean twice, taking in southern Europe
and northern Africa, and requiring two
or more months Of time. 1t would seem
as If the question Of expense cut little
figure when the manager of such a
trip has succeeded in convincing people
that they will get their moneys worth.
The experienced manager of any en-
terprise of this kind knows that he
must offer an apparent bargain. A
shipload of, say, 500 passengers can be
taken at much less than regular rates,
and they will afford the promoter o
handsome profit. Many months Of
preparation are required. In fact, the
first move is made early in the preced-
ing summer. The country is divided
into states or sections, and representa-
tive men are secured to vouch for the
affair. In this business, as in many
others, the best support comes from
outside of New York. The proper sort
of advertising matter is furnished to
the district or state manager and is
distributed not broadcast but to Sc
lected persons. The manager tries es-
pecially to get one or more big men in
each section, taking them free If neces-
sary. An ex-congressman or senator
or governor is good, attractive card.
So is preacher of note. Once a person
decides to go he is expected to make a
deposit as guaranty of good faith,
and some passengers pay the whole
cost on the installment plan.
A few days before the departure of
such an excursion the ticket-holders be-

hours after the body was found. This
hardness may have not been the fault of
Mr.. Eckert, who is known to be very

lost before commencing an investigation
was valuable and cannot be recovered.
