CENTRAL AMERICAN BEAUTIES.

to Be True.

Stories of Blossoms Almost Too Good
THE brilliance of the coloring of the
Central American orchids is beautiful
beyond description. l. found the trees
and plants of Costa RIGA exceedingly
prolific. The most surprising Of all
were the immense Towering trees in
the 1ungles and forests, resembling our
grand old oaks. covered with delicate
pink blossoms like azaleas. often as
many as thirty blossoms in a bunch,
ana hundreds of them on tree, says
lady recently returned from Costa Rica
to New York Tribune reporter. Zone
OF the most beautiful pictures Of Costa
Rica which I recall just now is plan
tation of coffee, with its snow-white
blossoms, fenced in by old posts, out
OF which were growing shoots from
ten to fifteen feet high, crowned with
brilliant red blossoms. The flowers OF
the coffee trees are fine and grow in
little punches at the section OF the
leaves and on these slender branches
as many as twenty of thirty punches
may be seen, running down their en-
tire length, in fact, covering the trees,
which stand from eight to ten feet high.
This feathery mass of blossoms soon
becomes coffee beans of bright red
or brown color at first. Another thing
which interested me greatly was the
blossom of the banana tree, which
stands out in wonderful contrast with
the coffee blossom. It is Of immense
size, pink and delicate green in color,
turning into brilliant red and brown
before falling and leaving the young
banana in it's place. While the wild
flowers of Costa Rica grow in prodigal
profusion and are rare and beautiful
to northern eyes, the cultivated flow
ers surpass in beauty anything ever
imagined and they blossom the year
round. saw white climbing rose
with hundreds of buds and full roses,
from which my hostess told me she had
cut roses every morning for eighteen
months. The stands in the markets
are covered with flowers, and one can
buy a bunch of orchids there for five
cents, each one OF which would cost
over 81 here. For ten cents one can
buy all the flowers one can carry" r..

HOW the Deep Snow Interfered with
Wedding in AI.iss.
From the New York Journal: Not
within the memory Of the oldest 1um-
herman has there been 80 much snow
In the great Maine woods in March as
at present. All the wood roads have
disappeared and all the woodsmen are
at work shoveling out roads sometimes
to the length of twenty and thirty
miles in order to get the tote teams
to base Of supplies. Men were SUBJ
stituted for horses on the tote teams
In many instances. as the horses were
too weak to drag the sleds. At Good
wins camp at Tonhegan 100 men on
snow shoes dragged the fodder for the
oxen ten miles through drifts at times
fifteen feet deep, and similar condi-
tons exist throughout the vast north
ern numbering section. Charles David
son Of Patten and Louise Mason of Sc
bois were to have been married last
week. The wedding had been post
poned twlce-once on account Of the
great storm and again owing to =
death. Davidson was not to be disap-
pointed this tine, however, by the ele-
ments, and started early that morn
ing on horseback. The horse found
cred and he returned and donned snow
shoes and plunged into the f.fteen-foot
drifts. Fearing that he had persisted
in the snow party set out on snow
shoes after him the next day and
came across the ardent lover In tears.
He was rolled up in a blanket near the
top branches of tree into which he
had walked for shelter. He was loath
to return with his rescuers and the
whole town turned out to shovel a
road for him to his snow bound bride
twenty miles away. Another bridal
snow-shoveling party from Sebois
started about the same time to meet
them half way.

across. 1t lies On the very top of Mount
Mazama, and IL completely surrounded
by rocks rising straight from the wa
tor. It's greatest ascertained depth is
1000 feet, and this depth seems to be
almost the same over tho greater part
Of tho lake. There Is no beach, the
surrounding rocky shores extending
vertically beneath tho water to depth
of several hundred feet. There are few
large fish in the lake, but much small
life in tho shape Of crustacea, etc.
