A FEW GARDEN HINTS.

Every large fruit grower should
have a cold storage plant.
The apple is, all things considered,
the best fruit grown, and the winter
banana heads the list.
For a small lawn there is no pref
tier or more suitable tree than Mag
nclia acuminata. 1t is without dis
ease and insect pests do not attack it..
There is probably no better goose
berry for this country than the Co
lumbus. 1t is very prolific and is
claimed to be absolutely free from
mildew

SORROW THROUGHOUT EUROPE


London, Sept 11.-Queen Victoria and the
Prince and Princess OF Wales teleeraphed their
condolences 10 Emperor Francis joseph last
evening. The Court Circular to-day says:
THE Queen received last evening with feel
ings OF the utmost CONSERVATION the starting
news OF the terrible crime The Queen mourhs
profoundly the loss OF Her Imperial Majesty
with whom she had been on terms or friendship
for many years. She feels likewise most deeply
for the honored and bereaved Emperor. who has
experienced so many trials during his long and
beneficial reign"
The terrible news has thrilled Europe from
end to end, and everywhere only one question Is
asked How can society protect Itself against
anarchism?
Special dispatches from every capita descrlD"
the effect produced and quote newspaper COM
ments that palpitate with bitter indignation that
a defenceess woman. who Stunned politics and
did nothing but good. should be selected at the
moment Of the approaching Jubilee for the as
sassins knife.
Perhaps the most poignant grief is displayed
in Italy, because the public mind there IS toucheo
with shame that so many political crimes have
been committed by Italians. King Humbert
with his own hand wrote telegram expressing
the deepest sympathy The Pope wired Emperor
Francis Joseph as follows:
May God give the strength Of resignation 10
our dear son. Joseph. who in so short PERIOD
has been tried by many misfortunes' we
pray that God may bestow upon the house oi
Hapsburg that peace and tranquility wnicn IL
merits by reason Of It's sentiments toward the
Church and the Papacy"
The Pope ordered solemn masses In the
churches OF Rome for the repose OF the soul OF
the dead Empress.
II is understood that the Prince Of Naples and
Emperor william. with Empress AuSuste VIC
tora will attend the funeral.
Another feature Is the intense sorrow and
sympathy evoked in Hungary. It is hopeh tnat
the sad event will tend to compose the political
troubles between the two parts OF the dual
monarchy.
Emperor Francis Jo9eph it is said has been
troubled from the beginning OF the year WIN
gloomy forebodings. and was often heard 10 eN-
press fervent wish that the Jubilee were safeiy

dining at a restaurant in the jubilee exhibition

reached him. He fastened TO Schoenbrunn'

from a worse fate.
