WAS SHE 4 NEGRO?
A woman Forced To Leave A Wash-
 ington Hotel. s.*>

|
 ington Hotel.
 The guests of hotel north of Penn |sylvania avenue were thrown into state of mind recently by strenuous presentation of the race issue, which was precipitated by a religious discus- sion and followed by the election of a woman boarder who claimed that she was Spaniard and the daughter of Sagasta, the late Prime Minister of Spain, says the Washington Post.
 The denouement was the result of q quiet investigation by the hotel lnanag- |enent and some of the guests and which, they say, disclosed the fact that |the woman was the daughter of negro parents. At the usual parlor gathering after dinner she was interrupted by
 the gentleman who had led In the iIl- vestigation, who, during q spirited colloquy, told her she was of negro blood. Seizing an umbrella she attacked
 him, striking him across the face. The
 umbrella broke at the second blow and the enraged woman jabbed her de nunciator in the left ear with the part
 remaining in her hat. The man ex- lplained last night that he could not stike a woman, and had to take out his resentment in telling her all the things lclaimed to have learned about her.
 The woman and her daughter were ordered to leave the hotel which they did the next morning. The alleged Spanish woman of high degree had been a guest of the hotel months before suspicion as to her ante lcedents was aroused. She became acqu- ainted with most of the people who re- \ sided Iii the house, and whom she met | in the parlors. Much of conversation was about Spain and "her people," / l One day business man of the To-
 cality asked the proprietress why she was entertaining a negro" The land iiady thereupon instituted an investiga- ition as to the antecedents of her guest.
 1.-TWO of the male guests volunteered to lconduct the investigation and unravel 1.-the geneaIogy of the woman. They dis
 lowered, so they say, that Instead of be- ling what she represented herself to be
 she was the daughter of a negro, whose
 widow is living in this city. One of the investigators declares that the woman married a negro, 8 former employe of lthe Postofffce Department.
 \ It is claimed that the woman at one ltine was employed at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, from where Ishe is said to have been discharged.-

THE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. RIVAL
Introduced From Bermuda The Plant Has Been the Subject
Extensive Scientific to Bring It to Its Prime
3 In the Easter Season.

a Bermuda is commonly thought OF
as the habitat of the Easter lily, from
the fact that this favored locality was
the source of supply. at the time this
popular lily was introduced to, the
floral trade of the country. It was IN;
troduced by Philadelphia florist,
from whom it received the name OF
Lilium Harrisii. Its common name in
the earlier years Of it's popularity was
the Bermuda lily. 4s6 5sssff5Ss
Decoratively, the Easter lily has ne
rival in the spring, and 1t fills an I'M.
portant place all thru the year, az
nothing else is SO effective In giving
masses, of white. For ecelesiasticas
uses it seems to- have a universally
recognized symbolism that makes y.
the favored flower for all cerem oniaa
occasions. 81 !:
The constant demand for the lily
is the cause for many interesting VII
cissitudes In its history. Normally itl
Bermuda the bulbs ripen about nids
summer, but in order to fill 0derh
for florists who VARIED bulbs to 1esEea
for Christmas, the growers aWsfs
pohligad is saf
this led to disease and deterfbratIof
Of the stock. s..
It is estimated that the flower croI
of lilies is worth $250,O00 annually
and the trade might easily be Larger
if conditions were more satisfactory
This being the case,sthe United States
department of agriculture lent sym
pathetic ear to the complaints of the
distressed florists. The department
ascertained the causes of the dissatis'
faction with Bermuda bulbs, but, as
the Bermudans did not correct thei1
methods, it was necessary to seek
remedy in some other quarter.
At this juncture attention was
turned to Japan, which is the native
land of the Easter lily, the Harrlsl
being q variety Of the lilium longl'
forum. An immense trade in lily
buds was built up, amounting severa
years ago to $4,000. but the same
conditions handicapped the japanese
trade. While the bulbs can be forced
The Minneapolis journal. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1888-1939, 1904-03-31

to blossom at any season Of the year
the bulb crop natures in Japan in the
late summer just as it does in Ber-
muda. The effort to provide for early
deliveries of bulbs resulted in disease
there, as in the eastern islets.
When it had satisfied itself that
there was no locality yet tested that
could supply very early bulbs of a
good quality, the agricultural depart
ment went at the problem from a new
1t determined to try
growing bulbs from seed. When
year it was believed that 1t took five
years to grow bulb of Towering size
from seed, but the actual test pro-
duced flowers in six months and bulbs
of salable size in ten months.
! The bulletin Of the department de-
failing these experiments considers
the results Of sufficient Importance to
warrant the belief that the seed
propagation method will revolutionize
the lily growing industry. The idea
Originated with George w. Oliver and
to believe that It will be possible for
florists to raise their own bulbs in the
greenho use and to- have plants flows
Of the seed: 1T is probable that the
work Of plant breeding will go on
with a view to developing certain de-
sirable characteristics. The florists
want. the sfxation of early, mfdseason
and late varieties, so that they can de-
pend upon their. bulbs to produce
definite and dependable results. It
is expected that this and the elimina-
ton of bulb diseases will be, accom-
plished by the seed method. The
: three varieties already exist but are
unreliable.
According to writer in Country
Life in America for April, the flowers
should be of the largest size and the
best keeping quality; the plants should
need no stake and be easily moved;
I be capable Of garden cultivation, and
in the latitude Of New York should
survive the winter with only a cover
Of coarse litter, blooming regularly In
June for four or five years.

historic ornament, much Of which is
based upon plant forms also. All of
the simpler plants are studied and
may be adapted to ornament with sue

such uses more readily than others.
Among the motives that have been
used in the classes for good work in
design are the daffodil, the violet and
the cyc1amen.

DISGUISED SUBSIDY STEAL

The minority members of the house
committee on merchant marine and
fisheries have filed their views on the
Gardner bill to appoint comission
Of members of the senate and house
to inquire int the condition OF the
American merchant marine-What is
necessary tC its developme ment-aud to
report 10 congress.
The report declares that a commits
sion of any kind to investigate Is ull-
necessary. inasmueh as there is moth
ing new to be learned ca The suhjeez;
that there are Y ,l1mcS of information
and of reports treating OF the merchant
marine and that expenditure OF the
$4,000 provided for under the Gar5n 7
bill would BE a Useless waste ofeMone.
All such commissions, It declares, have
proved failures.
The promoters of the Garaner oi.
have TIVE purp8a in putting forth the
bill at this time instead Il coming
directly to the subsidy question one
is te. educate the country and prepare
its mind for a subsidy and the other
is to carry the matter over the 6lec-
tions OF next fall
The subsidy, or bounty, plan is
wrong in principle and ineffective in
practice" continues the report. 1T is
With2ut virtue as a remedy and is de-
moraliZing to the political conscience
Of the country. Once put it in practice
and every dehilitated and conscience

interests have been aided heretofore,
but NOT often. by direct grants from
the treasury. Subsidies are obnoxious

should never be Thought of. Tie great

Senator Foraker took occasion tC, ex-
plain the day after his bill was intro
duced that it was not an adminiStra-
ticn measure and that he had never
talked with the president about it. A
New York newspaper suggested edi-
tOrially that it might have been writ
ten by the attorney general because
it followed the lines of his trust speech
at Pittsbrg, WhcreupOn an order went
to prepare an emphatic condemnation
of the bill.
The president obviously does not de
sire to become mixed up with anti
trust Legislation Of any kind at this
stage OF his career that has not been
duly analyZed and branded.
The action of the attorney general in
obeying orders created a precedent
that is causing astOnishment among
senators and representatives There
is strong disposition to censure Mr.
Knox for his zeal in condemning a bin
that is pending before congress with
cut first submitting his ideas to the
proper committee. Senator Foraker
is not disposed to discuss the matter
further than to say that he intended
to introduce the bill year ago and
that in introducing it at this time he
tried to anticipate the decision in the
Northern Securities case, SO that he
could not be charged with trying to
help out some friend or interest
The bill will not be considered at this
season and perhaps not at the next
session. as nobody seems t2 under
stand it clearly. Even senators who
have read and reread it appear to
have only hazy notion of what it
means Senator Foraker says its chief
purpose is to exempt private corpora
tons from the operations of the anti
trust law.
