RARE FLOWERS AT PARIS SHOW.
Delicate Orchids Which Are Watched All Night-Roots Worth $1400 Each.


 From the European edition of the Herald
 No place In Paris could be better adapted for a flower show than the Grandes Serres de la Villa, in the Cours la Reine. Nothing can compare with the magnificent show of orchids, among which are several new and ex- ceedingly rare species.
 A Cattleyo Mosaic Wagnerie struck me as being exceedingly handsome, but on asking the price the reply was 1500 francs for the simple root.
 That's cheap" said the exhibitor; "why, I've sold other and rarer varie- ties up to 1000 francs"
 Are they difficult to Dreed?" asked.
 No, but you've got to get them first"
 l didn't half believe this, but when M, Charles olmon talked to me about his difficulty in raising cacti (especial- ly the crossing of well-known "strains') and Messrs. Vallerand Freres had told me about sitting up all night with gloxinias, and Messrs. Dupanaloup had described the horrors of raising such "cannas" (halisiers) as the Surprise" "Hesperides," Hans Verdmuller" and, above all, President Kruger" I decided that had enough troubles of my own and strolled out again to meet the chilly wind and trample in the mud.
 The show Is well arranged and is the best on record. It is simply floral and free from all "side shows"

UNVEILS PORTRAIT OF
 WILLIAM L. WILSON
interesting Feature to Exercises at Washington and Lee University
 Was Reading Letter From CIeve

Lexington, Va, June 1S.-The graduat- Ing exercises of Washington and Lee University took place today before large audience. The valedictory was de- livered by H. E. Keble of Abilene, Tex. There were forty-three degrees con- ferred twenty scholarships and fellow ships, and two gold medals awarded. An interesting feature of the proceed ings was the unveiling of an oil portrait of Hon. William L.. Wilson, late presi- dent of the university Hon. Isidor Strauss of New York delivered the ad- dress at the unveiling. Mir Strauss re- ferred to MT Wilson's work in regard to the Wilson tariff bill. In this connection he read a letter sent by President Cleve- land to MT. Wilson. MT. Strauss said the letter had never been made public. It is as follows:
 Executive Mansion,
 ''Washington. August 13 1894. My Dear MT. Wilson: I suppose a man very much depressed and disappointed may write a word of sympathy to an- other in like situation. We both hoped and fought for better things; but now that we know our fate 1 shall not let moment pass before l acknowledge the
 
 in an attempt to bring about an honest and useful result
 Much has been developed which has shocked and surprised you and me. and I have within the last hour found myself questioning whether or not our party Is tariff reform party. This. however. Is only temporary, and such feeling is quickly followed by my ola trust in Democratic doctrines and the party which professes them.
 But l only intend to express my sym pathy with you and my gratitude for the fight you have made for genuine tariff reform
 'I hope now that you will be mindful of yourself and that you will try and re- pair a strained mental and physical con- dition by immediate care and rest.
 Yours very sincerely,
 (Signed) GROVER CLEVELAND. Hon. William L. Wilson"

Lynehing In the South.
Pbiladelphia Times.

FT om Inc PhiIadeIphia Tlmes.
 Those ready defenders of the South who have taken offense at the rather plain remarks of President Roosevelt at Arlington will find good reading" in the account of the cruciflxion of a farmer by robbers in Alabama. Those who are so jealous of the honor of the South, when 1t is under accusation for its lynchings and such barbarities as are described in the dispatch from Ala bama, need to consider the gravity of these outrages and the comparative lawlessness of the civilization of which they are the outgrowth. It is false view of patriotism which leads the South to regard itself as a section whose institutions, including It's abom- inable crimes, are secure against pub lie criticiam-

MINISTER'S INTELLIGENT CAT
Takes Interest In the Appetite of Min
 ister's Sick Wife.

Richmond, Va-Mrs S. H. Love of Oral Oaks (not Oral Hood), Nottoway county, Va, vouches for this story of animal in- telligence and devotion, and Mrs. Love is the wife of Baptist minister.
 For some time she had been in very poor health Her cat seemed to realize her condition and seemed also to decide that something must be done about it. Instinct taught the animal that some thing to tempt the appetite was of the first importance. so she turned her atten- ton in this direction.
 Almost every day since that time the cat has brought partridge or young rab- bit and laid it the feet of her mistress.

 Mir. TIawley read a document to show that the climate at Panama was of a deadly nature and insisted on that &C., count the United States should not select that route.
 In advocating the adoption of the. Nicaragua route, MT. Pettus declared that the American people wanted and would have an isthmian canal to be built, owned and controlled by the United States. He said there were ;rary men in the United States "who contro ol vast sums of money, of which neither Croesus nor Solomon ever dreamed. who arc opposed to any canal because 1t would decrease their ,ncomcs.''

Food for the Fans.

The question of how Delehanty's long hit to left should be scored is an inter- esting one. The player certainly reached third safely, but on a technicality was out at first. Can a player be credited with a three base hit and yet go out by a technicality at first? The rules are si- lent on this question.
 Campbell had his eye on the ball yester- day. Out of four times up he made three hits, one of them was a long drive to the fence between center and right.
 In commenting on the game in Little Rock Monday the Arkansas Gazette says the score should have been reported as Little Rock 4, Memphis g, Ohio 4.
 In the official score Deiehanty Is cred ited with two errors. otherwise his rec ord was very good. Out of four times up he made three hits. one of them three bagger, seven assists and two put outs. He also started one fast double play. It looks now as though the boy would make good. He is certainly handy with the stick. His batting average so far is 500.
 Krugers batting average Is 375 This is better than some of the older members of the team.
 Newt Fisher Is probably the most liked and the most disliked manager who wis., its Birmingham, Ills bitterest critics however, have to give him credit for thoroughly understanding his business.
