SANTA ROSA, CAL. April 25.-Now
that the battle of the flowers has been
fought and won at the floral fete of Santa
Barbara; that Queen Mildred and the hosts
of the brilliant fiesta of Los Angeles have
given way to civic rule, public interest
turns to the ruler of California's great
annual flower shows, the Santa Rosa rose
carnival. Never before has there been
such concerted effort on the part of Santa
Rosas leading citizens to insure the sue
cess of public affair. The continued cold
weather and heavy rains of this week have
caused the calamity bowler" to predict
a lack of flowers, but from those best
qualified to judge it is learned that the
cold weather has been blessing in dis
guise, provided that the community is
"blessed" with two days of sunshine next
week. There are millions of buds that
only wait touch of sunshine to blossom
into glorious flowers.
The carnival will open on Thursday,
April 80. and continue for three days. For
the lovers of athletics there will be bicycle
races daily at the fine new track con-
structed by the Santa Rosa Wheelmen's
Club, bicycle parade, containing repre-
sentatives from all the principal organiza-
tions in the State and day of field sports.
There are many noted "hyers" already
here who will compete for the liberal
prizes offered to professionals, and high
class sport is expected.
There will be a fitting tournament by
well-known riders. as well as an exhibition
of broncho busting" with two balloon
ascensions and parachute jumps to amuse
the crowds between acts. Other outdoor
| amusements will include open-air con-
certs, a display of fireworks and the daz-
zling floral pageant, of floats, carriages,
carts, bicycles and horses, that is to be the
star attraction of May 1.
The formal opening of the carnival ard
coronation of the queen will take place on
Thursday night in the Athen@um, and
will be followed by an exhibition of fruit
and flowers and concert by Roncoyieri's
American Concert Band of sixty pieces.
On Friday night will take place the floral
ball, a feature of which will be game Of
living whist Immediately preceding the
grand march. The ball will open at
o'clock with a concert by Roncovieris
band and at o'clock the queen and her
retinue of nearly 100 people will start the
revelry.
First will come four heralds, followed by
six pages, all dressed in pure white. After
them will come her royal highness, Mrs.
Laura Matthews Burris, the queen, at.
tended by her lady of honor, Miss Sue
Rose Crook of San Francisco, six more
pages and the ladies-in-w waiting. As a
body guard the queen will have the fifty

timid nonentities, who carry no weight in
the House. There is not lawyer left

ment as shaped by Parnell. Of course the
Irish question is eternal and it will be
revived in time in a new movement, but
the old one is dead.
Without wishing to be harsh it may be
said that Baron de Hirsch's death Is to be
counted among his benefactions to his
race. He combined TO an exasperating
degree the power of devising and initiat-
ing vast phi!anthropic plans with dispo-
sition to meddle, minimize and obstruct
their operation after they had been set
going. His whole tremendous project of
transplanting Israel from Russia to free
soil of its own, which was the biggest
individual scheme OF its kind in history,
was hampered and frustrated to great

Transvaal question breaks open again all
the half healed sores between Berlin and
London, and if it goes further we will
doubtless hear once again of Germany s

If there is anything new about Vene-

court is to have another try Monday at ex-
tracing detailed information, and possi-
bly, then Olney's latest dispatch, which ar
rived yesterday, will have helped to clear
up the situation. There is no disposition
here in any quarter TO- have trouble, but
the Foreign Office is six months behind in
all its works and needs sharp squirting in

The rupture in the Irish Parliamentary

party is at last complete. Healy, Arthur
O'Connor, Vesey, Knox and their follow
ers, numbering about twenty-five, will not
attend further party meetings or accept
notices from the party whips. They were
driven to this course by the asininitv OF
the kept majority in thinking that they
could, on the same day, formally insult
Knox, and get Timothy and Maurice
Healy to help them to frame amendments
to the Irish land bill by putting them on
the committee from which Knox was
polntedly excluded. The lack of brains
involved in this proceeding made it neces-
sary for the m en- who alone know the in
tricacies of land legation to cut loose at

extent after the work was started by
his own weakness of judgment and char
acter. The trouble lay in his radical
inability to judge men and his profound
suspicion of everybody who was not on the
spot and engaged in fiattering him. He
would always listen to the fawning para
site at his ear as against the honest agent
toiling in his interest elsewhere, with the
result that everybody of any value who
undertook the management of the Argen-
tine colony or any other phase of the
Baron's gigantic project found himself
forced sooner or later to throw up the task
in disgust.
From what is known Of his arrange
ments it is believed the direction of these
great enterprises will devolve now upon
boards of trustees who will be under no

TRANSFER OF PATIENTS.

DR.. Giddings, the superintendent of the
state asylum at Waterbury, came to Brat
tleboro Wednesday afternoon, accompani-
ed by several attendants, and on Thursday
morning the transfer was made to Water
bury of ia women and 80 men,-patients
who were cared for at the ex. ense of the
state. The arrangements were carefully
made and the transfer to the special rail
road train of three cars, which carried the
company to Waterbury, was accomplished
without disagreeable features or incidents.
One man, who objected to leaving Brattle-
boro, bolted in Main street, but was soon
recovered and started on his way again.
A large proportion of this installment of
patients were longtime residents of the in
stitution, having been here from 10 to 80
years, and they left the Retreat with great
reluctance, feeling that they were being
taken from home. The remainder of the
states male patients will be taken in
course of two or three weeks.
DIR. Thomas Howell, who has been the
second assistant physician at the Retreat
since last November, accompanied DR..
Giddings and his new charges to Water
bury and will remain there as the second
assistant physician of that institution.
During his residence in Brattleboro DR..
Howell has made highly favorable i'm
preston, and has proved himself keen
observer, close student, and a man of
great ability and promise in his profession.

SUNDAY MAIL SERVICE.
BrRttlebOrO TO Have sunday Night Col

lectIOns by the Carriers, and Mail
Despatched for Boston, New York and
other Points.
Beginning with next Sunday Brattle-
boro is to have a Sunday mail to New
York, Boston and other points. For sew
eral years 1t has been one of the hoped for
privileges of this office, and after no little
planning of details the department has
finally ordered Sunday night collection
by the carriers and has established a serv-
ice by which arrangement letters for New
York, Boston, and other important cities
can be received and answered the same
day. The collections, to start with, will
only include the mail from the Main street
boxes, beginning at the Vinton corner and
going as far north as the box on the cor
ner of Main and Walnut streets, with col
lectons from the hotels. The first colec-
ton will be made next Sunday about ) 10
p NJ, and the pouches will be closed at
the office at 5:4j, containing all mail de-
posted in the boxes in the post-office be-
fore that time. These pouches will be
sent out on the owl train Monday morn
ing and will arrive in New York at II :2T,
in time for the early afternoon deliveries,
while mail for Boston, Springfield, Con-
nectlcut and more distant points will have
similar facilities. These deliveries will
then be advanced several hours, a fact that
will be greatly appreciated by the patrons
of the Brattleboro office.
Heretofore there has been no mail des-
patched after =. NJ. Saturday night till
Monday morning. This Monday morning
mail did not reach New York till after the
separation TO carriers for the last after
noon delivery from the general post-office,
though there is a delivery from the branch
Offices as late as p. NJ However, by the
new arrangement the mail will hereafter
reach the general Office at 1928 p. NJ, in
ample time for the 2:15 delivery, and pos
sloly II can go out by the 1:15 delivery.
Should Brattleboro be so fortunate as to
get Sunday train this summer the new
mail service will be so much the better
coDvenienced
The need of this increaed service has
long been recognized by Postmaster Childs
and he has tried to bring it about, but
the situation was complicated by the fact
that there is no mail service by the
Sunday night trains and the post-oflice de-
partment was loath to make a radical new
departure by asking the railroads to take
charge of the pouches and carry them in
the baggage cars, as will be necessary. The
final accomplishment of the plan will meet
with universal common lation,
