went out yesterday to the cemetery
on the Allegheny river to see the stone
erected by his family to Charles Stanley
Reinhart lifted into place. 1t was Just a
little over year ago that went to his
funeral. Since have come to know
the town that mans life and work seem
as wonderful as fairy tale. l have
heard the story OF his life over and
over from Gustave Lesser. an artist here
who went to Munich to study with
keinhart and who never wearies Of
talking OF him. Any one who has not
lived here can Lot realize hcw incon-
gruous. how little short Of miserable 1t is
for an artist to come out Of Pittsburgh.
Why. We only see the sun, who is the
father OF art, about sixty days out Of
the year. 1t is easy enough to under
stand why lads born in some cities of
the world should love art, or even lads
in the villages where life is left to form
itself. But Charles Stanley Remnant
was born in purely commercial town, a
town of great indu stries and almost in
calculable national resources, then the
head of the great river traffic down the
Ohio and Mississippi to New Orleans.
the center OF the rich oil regions, a
town red the year around with the light
of mighty furnaces, whore crude iron is
torn from the heart OF the earth and
forged into steel and sent 10 all the
seaports OF the world. A town in which
the war for wealth is waged to the ut.
termost. in which money is omnipotent
and success is measured only by deci-
mal points. 1t passes understanding,
almost, that from such city such a
man should come. But Our Lady Of
Art has strange caprices and she selects
her vOtaries from no one nation or
among no one people. She gave to
this lad from a emoky manufacturing
town what she has denied to many an
eager aspirant in older and foreign cities
OF the world. and quickeued in him that
one delicate fiber, which hides some
where in tire brain and controls our
sense OF beauty until Reinhartis was as
sensible to form as the eye to light.
Lesser has told me how he and Stars
used to stand together On the old
Twenty Second street bridge watching
the glare of the iron furnaces along the
MonongaheIa at night and the heights
of Mount Washington studded with
lights until it looked like great honey
comb Of fire. How they used to watch
the river steamers bound for New
Orleans and dream OF lands with fair
skies, where the sun shone always and
where art was more than name.
Then came The long weary struggle Of
his young manhood. his apprenticeship
in railroad Office and shipping Office,
the indignation Cf his family and his
friends whtn be threw up an excellent
position to 60 to Munich to study art.
For art was considered as something
frivolous, entirely beneath brilliant
young man OF good family; a trivial
thing. like play acting, possibly i'm
moral, certainly not remun erative. But

the hyacinths, was published in the
Times Union.
Prof. II. j. Webber, special agent
of the treasury department, appoint
ed to investigate the water hya-
cinths in the ST. Johns, how serious
ly they threaten to blockade the riv-
er, and ITO report some feasible and
economical means for their radical
ton, arrived in the City yesterday on
the steamer City of Jacksonville,
from Sanford, the trip being his pre-
li1ninary survey of the situation.
Professor Webber is not inclined
to discount the Importance Of an
early solution of the problem. He
has not Investigated the propagation
of the plant further than to ascer
tain, from the history of it's intro
ductiOn into the ST. Johns, that it
multiplies with marvellous rapidity.
It seems to have found conditions
here we'll adapted to it's growth, and
unless precautionary legislation is
enacted by the Florida legislature to
prevent it's introduction into other
watercourses and lakes, it is his be-
lief that but few years will pass
before every river, stream and lake
of the state will he infested by it.
Professor Webber's version of the
history of the introduction of the
plant into the ST. Johns is practical
ly the Same as that of Capt. w. A.
Shaw, of the steamer City of Jack
sonville.
w. F. Fuller, of Edgewater,
brought the first seed to the state
and planted them i'm a pond. The
plants crowded out all other lilies.
He cleared the pond, throwing the
roots of the hyacinths into the St.
Johns. This was in the year 1892 or
1898. Professor Webber does not
that Mr.. Fuller threw the roots into
the river later than 1892, for, grant
ing the plant great multiplying pow
err, it lis difficult to realize that these
few roots developed into thousands
of acres within four years.
Professor Webber is satisfied that
the plant is propagated from the
roots like the strawberry, which
shoots out runners from which other
plants spring, and he adds that
plants of such species are much
more prolific than those which are
grown only from the seed. He is not
satisfied, though, that the water by
acinth does not also grow from the
seed. The home of the plant is Ven
ezuela, and there they propagate
both from the runners and from the
seed, with evidence also that the
plant grows from the seed as we'll as
from the runners in Florida waters.
elf all the seed of any one plant
were to grow and develop, not many
years would be required for that
particular plant to overrun the
EARTH" said he, land the rapidity
with which a plant produces de-
ponds upin how we'll adapted the
conditions of a soil are TO that par
ticular plant. There can be no ques
tion but that Florida's short eXpe-
rience with the water hyacinth has

Kidding the upper waters of this and
either rivers of the weed.
''Happily the hyacinth is not
found in any other waters of the
state to any great extent other than
the st. Johns, and i'm the St. Johns
it is not found lower than Silver
Springs and Puzzle Lake. Puzzle
Lake, though, bids fair to be a hot
bed for this particular growth.
There are numerous islands in this
lake, several currents, but none suf-
ticiently strong to tear the fields of
hyacinths and carry them into the
river.
81 do not think that the lower St.
Johns-that is, that portion of the
river between Palatka and Jackson
ville-will ever be seriously infested,
but there is real danger that the up
per portion will be. In the upper
river there are several railroad
bridges. These are built of piling,
with sixty foot draws, and through
these the accumulation of the plant
must pass in order to escape to the
sea, for all other portions of the
bridge offer a barrier. The piling it.
self would be a barrier, but a more
effective bar is offered in the string
ers that extend from one pile to an
other to give strength to the struct-
ure. These stringers are almost in
variably built within a few inches of
the surface of the water. If the
state were to require that all bridges
across the St. Johns be of broad
spans [ think that thousands of
acres of the fields of hyacinths
would pass down with the current
and out to see."

SEVERAL STABBED AND SHOT.
BULLETS FLEW WILD AT A MONT
GOMERY PICNIC.

The Harmonic Club, n COIOred SOcIe-
ty for Caring for the Sick and
Burying the Dead, Came Near Full
filling Its Purposes on Its Annual
EXcursIOn-One Man Lost His Nose
and Another an Eye, Another Had
His Skull Fractured, and IA Woman
Dangerously Stabbed.
The Harmonic Club, a colored organiza-
tion which exists. it is supposed, for the
purpose of caring for the sick and bury
ing the dead, celebrated the glorious de-
claration of Independence yesterday with
a picnic at Montgomery.
The picnic was largely attended. One
of the features was a match game of base
ball between two rival teams Reports
were somewhat conflicting last night.
Whether the crowd disagreed with the
umpire or whether the teams disagreed
with each other or whether the quality
of liquor supplied was more villainous than
the ordinary picnic brand, could not be
learned
Any way, the crowd was in very bad
humor at the close of the day. While it
was WdilAilS dl the StdllOn IOr tne train
to the city fight started, which resulted
in a general row. Several were shot, cut
and beaten, some of them severely, and
1t is said that one woman was stabbed
dangerously. The fighting was continued
aboard the train, and when the train
reached the station at Whitaker and
Second street there were several wounded
aboard. The police ambulance was tele-
phoned for, and George Sans and William
Donnery, who appeared to be the
worst hurt, were taken to their
homes at Pine and Lumber streets, where
they were attended by DIR. r. G. Norton.
Both men had been numerically beaten.
Sans had his right eye knocked out and
a slight fracture of the skull besides.
Donnery was shot in the face and the
bones of the nose and face were badly
fractured. Sans eye which was hanging
on his face, was replaced by DR.. Norton,
but the probabilities are that he will lose
1t. The fractured bones were picked out
of Donnerys face, but the ball was not
extracted.
The parties who made the assault on the
men came in on the same train. The af-
fair was reported to the police who en-
deavored unsuccessfully to find the guilty
parties.

the range before the heat had begun to
make things uncomfortable. About TWEEN
ty-hve arullerists went out, a number
having gone to Augusta.
The shooting, on the whole. was not par
tioularly good, the artillerymen having
had slight practice at the butts. The high

ranges, which were those at which the
targets were shot. was made by Sergt.

for the city. Sergt Miller holds the medal
for the companys asst contest. He turned
1t over TO the ca plain yesterday to be
again shot for by all the members but 1t

WINDING UP THE FIRST CROP.
Second Crop of Melons VIII Soon Be-
gin to Move.

The Plant system has moved 99S carloads
of watermelons so far this season. This
is just about the wind-up of the first crop.
Shipments will grow gradually less for
several days, 1t is thought, and will then
start on a boom when the new crop be-
gins to be moved.
The first melons planted, and which
have been shipped. were not very good
in quality, and were also short in guam
tity. The conditions early in the spring
were unfavorable to the crop and caused
these results.
There has been a great shortage in the
number of cars hauled, compared with the
records of the preceding year. Railroad
men hope to see sufficiently large second
crop TO run up the receipts and bring the
record for 1897 approximately near those
of late years.
The railroads devote a great deal of
attention to the watermelon business, and
it is an item of Importance to them. The
traffic is their main reliance during the
summer months when nearly every other
kind of freight business is Off in volume.

but il was reported last night that he was
only painfully bruised.
