THE CHRYSANTHEMUM.
-AAIa~s Flower Was Thought WORTHY
of n Show All to Itself
in 1880.

The National Chrysanthemum So
cie,y was instituted just SO years since,
in lS46, says the Saturday Review. The
flower which il has taken under it's
patronage, upon whose aggrandize-
ment it has bestowed so successfully
such patient and ingenious care, has
been established among us only little
over a century. The first time it was
thought worthy of a ''show" all to it
self was in 1880. Fancy if one of those
early patrons could have dropped in at
the exhibition last week and seen what
his favorites had attained to! Surely
he would have thought himself trans
lated. The very generic name. of the
plant, the golden flower" at first SO
pertinent. has lost its distinctiveness.
There are golden chrysanthemums

Brave Feat of American Scouts I'm.
der Gen. Lawton In the
Philippines.

A medal of honor-the highest COM
pliment which cah be given to an
American soldier-has been recon-
mended for presentation to each of
the ten surviving members of a band
of IL scouts who performed brave
feat near San Miguel de Mayume ORR,
in the Philippines, on May 10, 1899,
says Youths Companion.
These scouts were under the lead OF
William H. Young, a civilian who had
been a famous scout on the western
plains in America, and whom Gen.
Lawton made his chief of scouts in
the San Ysidro campaign this year.
On the day mentioned, Gen. Lawton
was advancing on San Miguel. A
suddenly upon the enemy, drawn up
in an advantageous position in front
of San Miguel, the right flank resting
on a stream, the left On an elevation
made secure by dense thicl.et.
1t was afterward ascertained that
the Filipino force in this position
numbered about 600 men.
Without waiting for the reinforcing
battalion to support them, or to be in
a position to do so. this squad of ten
scouts, led by Mr.. Young and by
Private James Harrington, of the Ore
CONS, an old frontiersman-12 men in
all-charged the enemy's line, about
$50 yards distant.
The line fired, then wavered, and
then completely gave way, to be fol-
lowed up by the reinforcing battalion,
and driven from the city and environs
of San Miguel. place of great i'm
portance.
Young and Harrington, while shout
ing and cheering and leading the men
up. were shot and killed.

They cost from $3.50 up, but while I was
looking for one shopkeeper showed
me most scientific trick. His store
was very lofty, running up two or three
stories, and he was descanting on the
beauties of this particular sword, when,
in order to prove the perfect temper of
the metal, he drove the point into the
floor and bent the blade until hilt and
point met. He then suddenly released
the hilt, anG that six feet of cleaning
sword sprang up into the air like a
thing alive. Up and up it went, almost
to the lofty ceiling itself, when it lost
its impetus and began its descent hilt
first. 1t returned almost to the place
whence it started, the shopkeeper
catching it by the hilt with practiced
ease and returning it to its case. Twas
crazy to try it myself, but the owner re-
probably not only wreck the store, but
perhaps injure myself as well. He told
me that if I wanted to learn the trick I
had better practice it in a large open
lot, and that a suit of armor wouldn't
be bad thing to wear until got the
hang of it."
