The Passion Flower.

This beautiful and historic flower is
becoming one of the most popular of all
climbing vines. It's bright green foliage
and its snowy and extremely fragrant
purple flower are very attractive. In
the conception of ancient priests the
flower was said to contain all the sym.
bols of our Lords passion. The five
petals and sepals represented the ten
dicipies peter who denied, and Judas
who betrayed not being counted) The
teathery corona represented the purple
robe, while within this and surrounding
the guynophorc is the crown Of thorns.
From the point of the ovary are suspend
ed the three nails that held the Saviors
hands and feet and the cross is also to be
seen.
These flowers grow upon a hardy and
beautiful perennial vine that will in a
seasons growth cover a whole verauda.
They also bear large succuent fruit
about the size of a hens egg, which is
deliciously pungent to the taste and
wonderfully fragrant.
The vines thrive we'll in all climates
but have to be protected in winter in the
extreme northern states. They may be
grown in the house and trained over a
window in winter with success and pleas
ing effect.
Large one year old roots, guaranteed
to bloom this season, sent by mail post

[The following very clever poem from Life
concerns the editor Of the New York Evening
Post Mr. Godkin IL q very worthy man,

war has changed into bitterness now that
the war has begun. He has been printing
some articles against it which have inspired

names as TRAITOR" Most people do not De-
lieve that Mr. Godkin is printing treason
but he certainly is not commencing himself
to the great American nation by the tone OF
his editorials just now. This good humored
skit expresses the view of the good humored
public concerning him i:
Godkin the Righteous known OF old,
Priest of the Nations oral health;
Within whose Post we daily read
The Gospel of the Rights of Wealth;
Great Evening Post, be with us yet,
Lest we forget lest we forget.
The Tribune drools the Sun is vile;
The Journal and the World are lies;
Alone thy Post speaks forth the truth
Not humble. but divinely wise.
Omniscient Post, don't leave us yet,
Lest we forget lest we forget.
For East our navy swots the foe;
Manila falls beneath our fire;
We're tempted, Larry, to cxult-
But chide us with thy caustic ire.
Great Evening Post, reprove us yet,
Lest we forget lest we forget.
If, proud OF Dewey, we cheer his name,
And count the ships the Spaniards lost
Such boastings as our fathers used -
Benighted folks without the Post;
Godkin, be quick; remind us yet;
Lest we forget lest we forget.
For Yankee heart that pu IS her trust
In tweve-nch guns and armor plate,
And recognizeth not that all
Save Godkin-are degenerate;
For licking Spain and wicked brag;
Godkin forgive thy Country's flag.

MARINES LANDED IN CHINA.

Washington, November &c. The United
States navy has landed marines in China.
despatch was received at the navy de-
partment today stating that the captain
of the Charlestown had landed his marine
guard at lien Tsin. The despatch was
taken Immediately to the White House by
Acting Secretary Allen.
1t seems that the marines were landed
not because of any information of rioting
or attacks upon American missionaries,
but solely to act rs guard for the United
States legation at Pekin The Boston
was despatched to the mouth OF the Ple
Ho river several weeks ago at the instance
of United States Minister Conger to pro-
vide guard for the legation. The min
lister represented that nearly all OF the
legati ons of the European powers We're
provid ed with marine guards and he dlu
not care to be exceptional in this case.
After lying at Taku for while, the
Boston worked her way up the river lien
Tsin to about the head of navigation ior
vessels of her class and distant aDoub
sixty miles from Pekin.
1t is said at the navy department. tna1

dissuade the United States government
from infiicting this humiliatio upon, 1t
and the effect was to cause a delay IN the

CUB IN JUDGES.
Three Popular santiago Men Appointed by
General Wood.

SantiagoIde Cuba. November 26. The
Bandera Guiana, weekly paper of this
city, takes an opposite view to that of
the other papers regarding the importation
into island of negro coionists from Kansas.
The paper says that all should be re-
ouired is that the immigrants should be
of good character and willing to work,
and declares further that the Cubans have
no right to object to the immigrants
on account of their color as the negroes
have made equally patriotic efforts with
the whites to secure the liberty OF Cuba
and that consequently no objection should
be made to the coming OF good negro
colonists.
Gen. Wood today appointed Senior
Eudaldo Tamayo chief justice of the
supreme court and Seniors Jose Beroiu
and M. De J. Mandulay, associate Justices.
The chief Justice will receive salary
of $500 per annum and each or the as
sistant justices salary of $4,000. These
are about half the salaries PAID the cnlel
and assistant justices during the Spanish
regime, hut owing to the fact that the
officials now receive full pay instead Of as
before being paid less than half theil
salaries, the positions are now really
worth more than they were under span
l sh sovereignty
The men appointed are well known
Cubans, who have been connected fol
years with the bar association OF san.
tiago and have held many important
positions. and their appointment appar
emily gives satisfaction to all class OF In
habitantS.
The Cuban, Spanish and American resi-.
dents of Santiago, are recognizing the
| great value to the provinces of the ser
vices of Gen. Wood and are considering the
matter of having the generals portrait
painted by celebrated artist the picture
| to be kept at the palace as memento OF
| the first American governor of the prov

are alike in the project.
