Flowers are not always named by
chance. Take the Dahlia. that was
named after Dahl, a Swedish florist
and discovered OF the flower The mag
nolia after Magnol, celebrated French
botanist. But there is only one in
stance reported of a man and flower
receiving name at the same time.
Marechal Mel, on his return from the
Franco-Austrian war, received a basket
OF beautiful yellow roses from a peas
ant woman. One Of the stems had a
root clinglng to it, and this the mare
chal took to florist in Paris. under
whose care it became 4 thriving bush
laden with blossoms. This Mel took
as gift to the Empress Eugene, who,
on hearing that it was nameless, said:
"It shall be the Marechal Mel" At the
same time she bestowed upon the as
tOnished general the jeweled baton in
dicating his high rank of marechal of
France.

OF Chicago newspaper.
one OF the most notable changes of re-

been the transformation of the old,

A young woman who studied art at
Cooper Institute has had a hand in this
transformation. She went to Chicago
ana became connected with an engrav-
ing house. Then she went into a big
millinery concern as it's advertising
agent One OF her ideas was period

edited and made the designs for.

a year she found herself back in New

An Instance OF Growth.

1t is pleasure, in this day of great
industrial combinations, to note an IN
stance where an independent concern
has attained to mammoth proportions,
and has grown steadily but surely for
years from small beginning into the
fulness of the present time. Such an
institution is cited in the seed business
of d. NJ. Ferry q Co., which for nearly
half century has gone forward each
year, constantly adding new customers
and retaining its old ones, until it is to-
day the source of seed supply from
which the great crops OF this country
spring. Seed houses have come and
gone-some survived and fourished for
years, but finally succumbed for one rea
son or snother-while Ferry's kept
growing all the time. Thousands Cf
farmers, gardeners and flower grove 8
look to them year after year for the
seeds from which the prosperity of their
fields and gardens is to grow, and the
fact that they are never disappointed in
Ferry's seeds is the secret of the won
derful expansion of this popular firm.
You can buy their seeds in every city,
town or hamlet in this land, and you
are always certain that they are fresh,
true to name and sure to grow. Their

BASEBALL
FOR 1904
Two Men Can Coach
When Base Is
Occupied.

There viii be no change in the base
ball playing rules the coming season
by either the National or American
League. The Honolulu league teams
which are now practicing daily will not
have to worry because the new rules
for 1904 have not arrived, for there is
practically no difference in them over
the 1903 rules
The foul strike rule is still fix
ture for another season at least, and
the chances are that it will be perma-
nent.
This was established at joint com
mittee meeting on playing rules of both
leagues, held at the office of President
Pulliam of the National League in New
York, on March 1.
The committee allows of one innoya-
ton by allowing two coachers UP. Here
tofore but one coacher was allowed
when there was but one runner on the
bases; under the new rules two coach
ers can be up whatever the number
of base runners. 1t is expected that
this will put more life into the game.

JORDA,N'S HORSES
IN RUSS CAVALRY

| The two Flying Jordans''-Mrs. Jor-
dan and her daughter Nellie-who pass
ed through on the Siberia en- route to
Louis Jordan, head of the athletic fami-
ly all sorts of trouble according to the
| following story in the Examiner:
| Louis Jordan, known to the world as
| Flying Jordan" one of the famous
| troupe of circus acrobats, will have
good cause to remember the Russo-Jap-
anese war for years to come.
AS result of the conflict in the Far
East Jordan has lost track of his wife
and three children and his stable OF
| thirty-five valuable circus horses are
now chargers in the Russian cavalry,
having been confiscated by that gov
eminent at the outbreak of the war.
Jordan went to Siberia two years ago
and purchased a circus, which he put
on the road in that country. Business
was excellent, and the daring trapezist
was SO we'll satisfied with the result
of his venture that several months ago
he decided to enlarge his show, and
accordingly started for New York to get
additional performers and parapherna-
liza. On his arrival in this country Jor-
dan was informed of the outbreak of
the war and Immediately wired mis-
family at VladivoStok to sell his horses
and start for home. He received in re-
ply cable to the effect that the horses
had been bought by the Russian gov
eminent at the ridiculously low price
of $1o0 per head. The cable stated that
the sale was compulsory. Jordan valued
his steeds at from $500 to $1,000. SIS the
animals were all trained for work in
the circus ring.
While grieving over the loss of his
horses, Jordan is in a state bordering
on frenzy because of the strange dis
appearance of his family. Cablegrams
have been sent by the unlucky circus
man to friends in Vladivostob and other
Siberian cities asking for information
as to the whereabouts of his family,
but none of the answers could tell
where the lost people We're.
In the meantime Jordan is waiting in
this city for news of his family. and the
American consuls in all the cities Of
the Russian domain have been notified
to keep a lookout for them
Friends of the Jordan family are of
the opinion that the wife and children
of the circus manager went to Hardin
with the Vladivostok refugees and are
now on their way overland to Russia.

NATIVE FISHERMEN BEING
CROWDED OUT BY JAPS
Little Brown Fishermen Are Gradually Gaining
Control of the Fishing Business of the
Islands by Their Persistent Energy.

j. y. Cobb, representing the United
States Fish Commission. returned yes
terday on the steamer W. G. Hall from
Kauai where he has been taking notes
on the fish industry as compared with
the inspection made three years ago.
Mr.. Cobb stated yesterday that ne
has not made up the figures of his pres
ent visit. but he believes the fish propo-
sition compares favorably with the re-
port made three years ago. There is a
slight falling off in catches of deep sea
fishes, due somewhat to Japanese fish
ermen returning to Japan He ascer-
tanned that the Hawaiian fishermen
still control the fish business on Ka-
uai but stand a chance of losing it, as
they lack the persistency of the Jap
anese in making hauls.
I find that this is true of the Ha-
waiian fisherman all over the islands,"
said Mr.. Cobb. He lacks the persist
ency which is possessed by the Jap
anese fishermen to a marked degree.
The Hawaiian fisherman has many ex-
cuses for not going out to fish. He
either has enough, or does not need any
at all, or the weather conditions do not
suit him. The japanese on the other
hand looks far ahead, is ready for a
dic1er at any time, and is therefore
generally on the alert. The Hawaiian
also seldom goes out for deep-sea fish
ing.
There seems to be an abundance of
fish in Kauai waters, including the
ponds and rivers.
