Bangor's Relief Method.

A novel and effective plan for the re- lief of the suffering poor of Bangor, Me-, has been put in operation by the relief committee of that city this win ter. Paper bags were distributed among the householders, accompanied by printed slip, saying: ''Please put in this bag any contribution you may wish to make, however small, and re- turn to -" The result was very satisfactory. Many people in moderate circumstances had before refrained from giving because of the smallness of their contributions. but this method opened a way for the mite of each one to reach the proper channel for the re- lief of the poor. The paper bags were returned, containing groceries, provis- ions that were not immediately perish able, clothing and money. The small individual gift in the aggregate became a mighty collection of food and cloth ing for the relief of distress.

 J. T. Mcfarland and T. B. Poole left last night for Tucson, where they will spend several weeks in the preparation of several special chapters in their forthcoming history of Arizona. The work is now progressing well toward completion and is claimed by it's edit ors to be in every way the most elab- crate and accurate exposition of the southwest ever attempted.
 Bishop A. W. Wilson, who has pre- sided over the district conference of the Methodist church south in this city, left last night for the west in the continuation of long list of engage ments to attend conferences of his church. He preached twice on Sun day, the address in the evening being missionary sermon. The collection, to be devoted to the spreading of the gospel was of gratifying size.
 Col. J. F. Wilson and young daugh- ter arrived yesterday from Prescott to attend at the bedside of Col. Will sons eldest daughter, Mrs. Irene i Wickersham, who is lying at the point of death at the residence of J. A. R Irvine on East Adams street. The dis ease is consumption and dissolution is near. Mrs. Wickersham, devotedly at tended by her husband, has been iI Phoenix for several months, coming here for relief out of the harsh climate of Seattle, but the relief was sough J too late.

Success in Plant Growing.

There is wonderful amount of truth in the following statement: Some persons have a knacls of making all kinds of plants grow in the most unfavorable circumstances. I think this is partly owing to a magnetic at traction existing between such persons and their plants. The plants seem to know they are loved, that they are household treasures, that every new leaf and flower is as welcome as the new words and expanding thoughts of a baby to it's mother. Apparently un- conscious of this, they do their utmost, and in places least adapted for success ful house culture Of plants, we often find stands or individuals equal to the best greenhouse specimens"

Tho Prince Took on His Hat.

According to the Philadelphia Rec ord, the captain of the clipper Louisi- ana, which lately arrived at that port. tells good story of the way an Amer ican boy, without making himself of fensive, extorted tribute from royalty. While the Louisiana was ly- ing at Dublin, the prince of Wales, who was then the guest of the lord mayor of the Irish capital, sent word to the captain that he would like to come on board and see what an old-time American clipper-ship was like. The captains son heard what was going on, and declared that he would make the prince tip his hat to him. He knew, it seems, that the prince was not in the habit of uncovering in this way. When the royal party came on board the boy appeard on deck waving the American flag. The prince, seeing the national colors, lifted his hat, and the rest of the party followed suit, to the great delight of the captains son, who thus had made good his boast.

A HUMBlED DANDY.
The Heartless Trick Played Upon Him by
 Lord Randolph Churchill.

Lord Randolph Churchill.
 At an entertainment once, where Lady Randolph Churchill was playing on the piano, says Kate Fields Wash ington, tall youth was observed pay ing a languid and rather insolent atten- tion to the music, standing close enough to the performer to have his comments easily overheard by her. "Lord Randy" was close at hand, too, and presently heard the vapid youth remark: ''Deuced fine music, you know, but it lacks veal soul-it lacks veal soul" To the critics astonishment, muscular young man, with big mustache, whom he had not noticed before, whispered in his ear: ''For shilling I'd wallop the life out of you!" He hastened to withdraw, but without discovering the identity of the author of the menace. The next day, to his delight, he received an invi- tation to the Churchills' home, which he accepted with avidity. On entering the house he was met by his threatening neighbor of the night before, who, be at once discerned, must be Lord Ran dolph. He proceeded no further than the entrance hall, for Churchill beck oned to the drawing-room, and out foated Lady Churchill. "This fellow has come to apologize to you for his re- marks of last night" missed Lord Ran dolph. ''Now," to the stranger, down on your knees!" Down went the dandy, lisping out the most abject plea for for giveness. Then he was turned over to a footman to be put ignominiously out of the door, while the host followed his retreating figure with roar of de- risive laughter.

grass is quite hardy. and its tufts are
magnificent in appearance. The leaves
are fully six or eight feet long. and the
Towering stems ten to fourteen feet
high. The flowers are Silvery white,
and from eighteen inches to two feet
long. The culture of these grasses and
their preparation for the market form
Il considerable industry. Florists are
thoroughly converSant with the valu-
able commercial qualities of pampas
grass. and most of the purveyors Of
flowers deal in it quite extensively.
The demand for pampas grass rs an in
terror decoration is N the increase ev-

colored for the market. and all that is
left for the florists to do is their ~
rangements in making appropriate
combinations. The great beauty OF
pampas grass is thought TO reside IN
the plumes. or feathers. as they are
sometimes called. These are abundant
