EnterprisinE Fanciers Seek and Sc
cure Floral Novelties.
From the New York Mail and Express
Fashions in flowers are almost as varia-
bic as in my ladys gowns. The blood
red rose, which was the favorite a few
years ago, was succeeded in popular fam
cy by the fragrant violet, which in turn
lost its pre-eminence to the variecolored
carnation, and now there is "a new Rich
mond in the field in the form Of the
gloire de Lorraine. The gloire is a new
variety Of Towering begonia, which for
iculturists say is destined to displace the
carnation as fad with wealthy amateur
growers.
The carnatiou family became probably
more famous than any other towering
plant, because Of the advertising it re-
ceived through the payment by Thomas
w. Lawson, the Boston millionaire, of
some $4,000 for a specimen which had
been named for Mrs. Lawson. But the
carnation is not a plant which can be
grown to advantage in a private house
1t requires the care of an expert horticul-
turfst, and its development is attended
by difficulties well-nigh insurmountabIe
to an mateur.
The new begonia is pot plant for sum
mer or winter blooming. 1t grows from
u to u inches in hight, forming grace
full, bushy foliage dotted with beautiful
soft. osy pink flowers. While the gloire
de Lorraine is the particular pride of the
begonia family, there are other begonias
which possess Il fascinating charm for the
Iayman INITIATED in the mysteries of flor
lculture. With the possible exception Of
the dwarf cannas, no other plant has
during the past decade, received sucn
close attention and been forced and i'm
proved by such careful selection, culti-
walton ana hybridizing. The flowers of
the tuberous-rooted varieties frequently
measure from four and one-half to six
Inches across, the colors ranging from
the most delicate tints of pink. yellow
and orange to intense scarlet and riches+

Require Little Care.
Unlike carnations and violets, the be-
Sonlas require comparatively little care.
only the simplest form of culture being
necessary to their perfect DEVELOPMENT,
OF thls reason. in addition to the nat
ural beauty of the flower, the begonia q
nave become popular as house plants.
1t is stated that of the varieties of
towering plants which enjoy favor to .dav
fully 80 per cent. were unknown twentv-
i've years ago. In many instances II
would be difficult indeed to find a speci-
men of the original stock from which the
present improved plant has been deyel-
oped. The pretty pink of grandma's lit
tie country garden would pass unnoti ed
beside the magnificent carnations of to-
day Yet they are OF the same family
and the one is but a development of the
other.

Lowering plants is due to artistic seiec-

Diseases of Plants.

OF late years many Towering plants
have been afflicted with diseases which
were unknown twenty-five years ago. This
is now believed to be due to deteriors-
ton in the stock. or a weakening OF the
plants constitutional viriiby, due to re-
peated forcing" to obtain desired re-
suits. Whole greenhouses full of carna-
tons have been destroyed In a short
time by the sudden visitation OF plant
diseases which, up to that time, was IN
known to the florist.
In caring for plants in small couserVS-
tories and private houses, it is always
wei to bear in mind that a Towering plant
must have sunlight. When the plants
are watered 20 do the work thoroughly,
and do not repeat it until the soil appears
dry. Do not sprinkle the leaves OF the
plants several times day and imagine
that you have given them all the water
they want. 1t is never advisable to wa
ter the tops of plants in strong sun
The water settles on the leaves in small
globules, which reflect and refract the
sunlight, burning the tender foliage

To The Free Lance:
The Richmond Times is one Of the
most reliable leaders Of public sentiment
In she South. and ell fair.minded people
like 80 read and enjoy its editorials.
But the leading editorial in The Times
OF last Saturday is 90 our mind the
clearest cot misflt that has appeared in
that journal for q long time Headed
1.-THE Governors Brave Stand "
II she Governor had received q
petition signed by ten thousand
OF Richmond citizens not TO par
don the young lady alluded to and rose
up in full uniform Of the State execu-
tive and granted pardon. The Times
might talk about courage. But this is
not the case and Gov. Tyler does not
represent himtelf, the people of Vir-
ginia or the customary rule Of pardons
when he refuses to enter into the feel
ings Of the thousands of the people of
Richmond who ask relief for themselves
as we'll as this unfortunate member OF
their society. II the Governor will sim
ply turn back few pages Of the history
Of some he has pardoned, to say noth
ing Of his predecessors. he will soon see
that pardons do not mean justification
for crime, but the law clearly allows
him to enter a realm Of thought whioh
is sacred to himself and which does not
reflect IN the slightest degree on bis
functions as the servant Of tbs people
In this case the law has been executed
and all It's horrors are being experienced
By this young woman, aRd while she
people Of Richmond are as good and
Just as any In the world, II the Cover
nor were to place,this lady on the Capt
tol square and call on all the people In
that great city who had not sinned TO
stone her until she was dead be knows
there would not be q rock cast At her.
Judge Robt. W. Hughes used to sus'
pend sentence sometimes after a jury
had convicted, and put the prisoner out
on his good behavior. This is not
bad plan as the law and evidence had
both been heard by the accused and pub
lilo sentiment was no longer puzzled TO
know who the criminal was, and at the
same time q new character had time to
develop In the individual.
1t was reported when the wife OF the
Governor Of West Virginia was on trial
on a technical matter the Governor wss
asked II she was convicted would he
appeal The answer came quickly;
mo, will pardon her and resign the
next day" This was courage. and this
is the kind Of courage Governor should
have. and not advertise himself so ex-
tensively at the expense Of one Of the
weakest Of his subjects
have in my mind now a refined lady
who goes TO a gentlemsn's store to deal
where the counters are filed up with
many valuable articles. She cannot
resist the temptation to carry of GER
tain things like ladies neckwear, gloves,

Loved for Revenue Only.

Mamie Simmons, of Chicago, being
rich and single, advertised for a bus
band. Frank E Haynes answered hef
appeal, made love and was accepted.
When the match was made Frank said
he had 800, 900 tied up in the worst
way. Then Miss Simmons loaned him
$500 to pay the preacher. etc. But he
never came 10 the wedding
Then Mamie advertised again. This
time she was q widow, rich, good
looking, and dying for some one 80 love-"
Haynes took the bait and replied. A
friend of Mamie posed as the widow
In a hotel where Frank called. He told
his 'short .of-cash" story again, and
Mamie, with two detectives, sprsng
into the room Frank is now In jail
