COLOR AND LANDSCAPE GARDENING
AND WHAT THEY PROMISE TO DO
FOR THE ENSEMBLE.
The traveller on the way to Buffalo to the
buildings erected for the Pan-American Expo
sition unnaturally turns over in his mind
all that he has in the way of drawings or
descriptions relating to the enterprise, and finds
himself wondering to just how far his antici
patons will be realized in or two definite
matters. Carrying with him recoections Of the
great Worlds Fair at Chicago, he will specu-
late to how far the preCedents then estab-
Hshed will be followed at Buffalo He concerns
himself especially with the questions of scale
and ensemble. The moment he reaches the
grounds he pcrceives that Chicago has provided
no precedcnts at all, unless in respect to the
of bodies of water in the arrangement of the
scheme. The buildings all very much
smaller in scale than those which made the
White City the shores of Lake Michigan,
they much closer together, and, although
they not inharmOnious. they illustrate con-
siderable diversity OF style The broad impress
sion is of rather cosey and bijou assemblage of
structures, laid out with regard to great
vcnience of access and designed in extremely
festal spirit. AS stated in The Tribune al
shown in the exhibition of the Architectural
League in this city, the general effect is fiorid
pictorial, an affair Of holiday gayety rather than
Of monumental grandeur.
Just one interesting note in the scheme marks
q departure from. or, perhaps one might better
say, judicious contrast to- this main char
acteristic, There is a touch of the grandiose on
the threshold. The approach across the huge
bridge which carries the visitor to the Esplanade
giving him a fine view straight down the Court
of Fountains to the Electric Tower is rem
dered stately by the weight and monumental
severity of the four piers erected respectivelv
at the four corners of the bridge aforesaid
These massive structures, more or less classical
in design, are already a hundred feet high and
when they are surmOunted by the scuptural
groups now in preparation they will form
most impressive portal to the show. Flags and
shields will be deftly arranged about the en-
trance, decorating and tightening the effect
without seriously modifying its graver more
formal clements. At this point too the minis

This is a very rich country, and those who are not wholly satisfied with their increased per capita will perhaps be glad to hear that they are also in- creasing in the matter of gems. Dur ing May our imports of diamonds and other precious stones aggregated $3,- 337,7 ,79S, a figure which breaks the rec ord, The custom houses report impor- tations for the present year to be some four times as great as they were dur ing the last Cleveland administration. For the twelve months they will pos sibly exceed $30,O00,O00.
 Pretty soon we shall all be rolling in wealth. There is no more pleasant eX- ercise than rolling In wealth and we congratulate the people who are now so rolling or who will soon so roll. It is a fine thing to have a constantly in- creasing per capita" and to be repre- sented in big increase in the influx of gems.

but the adult insects were deterred from depositing their ova. At the same time, all soldiers suffering from ma- laria were carefully confined beneath nets and subjected to the usual treat ment for malaria until free from symp- toms and the examination of blood showed absence of all evidences of the disease. The result of this experiment was the absence of a fresh case of malaria for a period of eighteen months, at which time the Doctor left the island. He is confident of having like success in the suppression of the pest at Fort Henry, and knows of no reason why Baltimore, or any other large area, may not be protected ill the same way.

And he found ready listen CTS, who crowded one another by the hips in their anxiety to chip in and raise a purse to defray the expenses of the doctor and an assistant back to Brazil and the land of loose gold The statements made by the doctor relative to his placers would strike an ordi- nary miner dumb but then Brazil is on the other side of the equator and probably the formation has got turned upside down, and what object could the doctor have misrepresenting the facts?
 Briefly, the doctor succeeded in rais- ing some three thousand Mexican dol lars to pay the expenses of taking out titles and transportation accommoda- tions.

IN SOUTH PASS.

The recent great increase in the trade
 at the port of New Orleans has called
 attention to the state of things in South
 Pass, The New Orleans papers con- cur in the statement that the fear that the required depth of water in South
 Pass might not be maintained after the control and operation of the jetties
 passed from the Eads estate to the United States government has been thoroughly set at rest. The reports from South Pass have been satisfacto- ry, showing the maintenance of the channel called for by the Eads con- tract. There was practical demonstra- tion the other day that vessels of 26- foot draft and even greater could come to New Orleans or go to sea from there without the slightest difficulty. The German ship Abessinia, measuring 474 feet in length and having aboard a general cargo of 7500 tons, went through the jetties. The Abessinia was drawing 26 feet 6 inches aft, but did not encounter the slightest detention or obstacle. The Times Democrat, how ever refers to the fact that as the ten dency is to build large steamers of a greater draft 26 1-2 foot channel will not suffice New Orleans, and that if it is to maintain it's position in the com world 1t will need a 30 or 35 foot channel This, the Times-Demo- crat says, fortunately can be easily secured through Southwest Pass when ever the general Government under of the entire Mississippi Valley"

BRAZIL'S ALLEGED FL DORADO

The Tales Told by the French Doctor.
 Here in Mexico we are accustomed
 to big schemes with millions in them
 but the latest enterprise forces the
 modest gold brick into a back seat. | About a month ago there appeared
 upon the streets of this ancient cap- | ital a tall, gaunt foreigner, whose grim
 face attracted the attention of more than one passerby as he strode along | the streets. He usually wore a negli- gee shirt, number 12 shoe and an air of studied unconcern. In and about the hotel Hobbies the hangers-on looked upon the stranger as a we'll to-do tourist until strange tales began to be told of his wonderful gold placers in faraway Brazil, where gold was so
 abundant that it was scooped up in
 shovels and weighed with butchers
 scales The wealth of the Klondike
 was a mere picayune and even the vast
 treasures of King Solomon, the Wise,
 who gathered gold together in such an
 abundance that it was reckoned of no
 more value than silver, was not in it with the new treasure house of the great republic south Of the equator. The new Monte Cristo became known as a famous French doctor and his great discovery was represented to ex- ist in a country never before trodden by the feet of white men.
 The story goes that the doctor had been a persistent globe trotter and on one of his voyagers down in the balmy West Indian Islands had met a sue cessful gold hunter who had visited the wonderful placers and picked up a. ton or two of gold with which he was | now enjoying well deserved rest.
 Inspired by the marvellous story of this casual friend the doctor set his face towards the Brazilian coast and ! after many dangers on land and sea ' reached the place where throngs of | ignorant nativss are reapihg their gold | harvest. The professional services of { the doctor became in great demand | among the gambucinos and his fees . were generously paid in the yellow dust. No special price was exacted but it was considered that half a kilo of gold for feeling q pulse or looking at a sticky tongue, or kilo of gold for a capsule of equine or a dose of salts was about the right figure.
 The doctor stayed but few months In this wonderful Dorado for it is any, thing but paradise for steady resi- dence It has climate which is des- cribed as mixture of that about Yu- ma, Arizona and Sheol and when the reaches TAO degrees in the

LOFT, LOSS IND BUSINESS.

l Many who have loved and lost, and interested in a lawsuit which has just
 come to an end in Vienna. Dr. Leopold
 Reiger is fashionable dentist of Vien-
 ma. His daughter is young and charm ing. Dr. Reiger took a young man
 named von Hauer as an assistant. Von
 Hauer didn't need the money there is in l dentistry but he thought he might as well learn how to do something While learning how to fix and unfix teeth he learned how to love the young and charming Miss Reiger, and the two be-
 came engaged. The engagement contln-
 ued for some three months, and mean while won Hauer took most of his meals
 at the doctors house and after the fashion of lovers often burned the gas late. Suddenly the engagement was broken off by the young man. and he left the house of Reiger for good. It was then that the doctor began an ac-
 tion against von Hauer for $650, that
 being the estimated value of the
 lunches and dinners he had eaten and
 the gas he had burned while he was the affianced of the daughter. The claim was that the food was obtained under false pretenses, as von Hauer never had any intention of marrying Miss Reiger. Von Hauer denied the al- legation and replied that while at the beginning he believed that he loved the young woman he discovered later that it was simply an infatuation, and rather than live perhaps miserably all his life he broke off the engagement which he said, was the only proper action gen. tleman of honor could take. The case was before the court for some time, and there was a great deal of argument, the outcome being verdict in favor of von Hauer The costs which pr. Reiger had to pay amounted to $500.
 Love is love and business Is business. Won Hauer probably told the truth but Dr. Reiger is out over $1,200, and his daughter is still on his hands.

And in that country of great wonders huge snakes abound and homing travellers tell of monsters forty feet In length. So the doctor packed his trunks, with nuggets and quartz of tremendous richness, having picked up a fortune in his moments of leisure from professional duties and sped away for Paris, his native city, where for a time he dazzled the gay capital with his prodigality. Old min CTS whose mouths are made to water by the sight of gold that runs an ounce to the ton may hold their respiration when told that his rock which the doc- tor brought to Paris runs something like $250,000 to the ton and that there are millions of tons in sight.

He was long and lean and gawky,
 He was bandy-legged quite, And was gaited like a cart horse,
 With bone spayins left and right; It was sure defeat to take him.
 But the hour had come to play, And the Cornyilles lacked Tom Tinker, Injured earlier In the day. Sure defeat, but fun in plenty,
 Was the reckoning that they made, But he needed not their banter,
 And his part in quiet played, Till they reached the closing inning,
 And he took the batter's place, With the score just three against them, And a Cornville on each base. How they sighed for stalwart Tinker! How the rooters filled the air; "Go 1t, HaySeed." slam 1t, Bandy!' Was the strangers whitening share. But he grasped the willow calmly,
 Though his manner lacked pretense- Two strikes-three-no crack! he's found i For homer OCT the fence. And the moments hush of wonder Broke in one tremendous din, As three Cornvilles crossed the platter, And the stranger followed in; He was long and lean and gawky,
 He was bandy legged quite, But he'd saved the day for Ccrnvllle, And the town was his that night.

Ay ATTICK ON THE MOSQUITO.

New Jersey, our own East shore, and several other places have an interest In the attack which Baltimore is go- ing to make on the pestiferous mos- quito. She is going to see what petro- leum will do, and has been seeking the views of army officers who have had
 experience in this line. Dr. Alexander

 opinion to offer He has tried the plan
 in Cuba, and with pronounced success.
 His experience was at Columbia Bar

 that time, excellent breeding places for
 the anopheles being provided in the lagoons between the post and the Gulf.
