COSTLY ROSE GARDEN.
Railroad Pays $4,000 Damages for
Prizes Not Won.

The New York, New Haven & Hartford
railroad has recently paid $4,000 for the
destruction of two rose gardens, says
Country Life in America. In May, 1901,
the railroad company set fire to three
worthless old buildings which it owned
at Woods Hole Mass. The neighboring
rose gardens of Miss Fay and of Michael
Walsh were ruined, apparently by poison
Gus gases thrown off from the tar and
gravel roofing material. An analysis of
these cases showed the presence of car
bolic acid, pyracine and sulphur, all of
which are harmful to plants. The mat
ter was referred to auditor. who
awarded more than S16,500 to Mr.. Walsh.
railroad company paid $4,000 in settle
ment
Miss Fay had collection of 1000 plants.
of which two-thirds were destroyed The
damage was estimated by six experts all
the way from 81, 500 to 5000. the average
being more than S., 500. Mr.. Walsh is a
professional florist and a specialist in
roses He has originated many new
varieties including the Jubilee, and had
received the first gold medal awarded to
a rose in this country. His collection
comprised $50 unnamed seedlings andscon-
sisted largely of new varieties raised by
him.
The most interesting phase of the mat
ter is that Mr.. Walsh sued for and prac-
tically received damages, for prizes that
his new roses and for thealcss of adver-
Using which be would have had if he
could have exhibited in 1901. One of the
experts estimated the loss from the first
source at $500 to $500 and from the second
81 0O0.-Exchange.

TOBACCO CHEWING.

81 suppose this board of health ordi
nance to stop splitting in street cars ana
all public places is good thing, said
a downtown tobacco dealer the other
day; but I've made up my mind that
it is not a good thing for my particular
business. I don't sell nearly as much
chewing tobacco as I did before the
newspapers began to talk about the
splitting nuisance and induced the health
officials to try to stop it.
My sales; of chewing tobacco had
been falling off for a long while before
the ordinance was posted In the street
cars. That, L believe. was because the
tobacco chewing habit was getting less
popular all the time. Everybody knows
it was steadily growing out of favor
among the better classes, especially
among young men but that doesn't ac-
count for the regular slump in sales in
the last year. The law has done that.
Il don't know whether I've had any
compensation for smaller chewing to-
bacco sales or not My cigar and smok-
ing tobacco trade mas grown right along.
I've been trying to figure out whether
the decline of tobacco chewing has any
thing to do with it, or whether it is just
a natural increase. but 1 can't tell with
any certainty.
Il am sure many of my customers
who have quit chewing are smoking
more than they did, but the increase of
trade in cigars and cigarettes hasn's
correspondent closely enough with the
loss of chewing tobacco sales to make
me sure one is due to the other
Washington Post.
