BIRTH oF THE ROSE.
Two Legends of the Origin of This
Beautiful Flower.

There are two traditions as to the
origin of the rose. According to Sir,
John Vaudeville, Jewish maid of
Bethlehem (whom Southey names Zil-
laD was beloved by british sot
named Hnmmel. The maiden rejected
this sutton, and he, in revenge, ac-
cused Zillah of offenses for which she
was condemned to be burned alive.
When brought to the stake the flames
refused to hurt Zillah. but burned
Hammel to cinder There she stood
in a garden of roses, for the brands
which had been kindled became red
roses, and those which had not caught
fire white ones. These, according to
the tradition, We're the first roses that
bloomed on earth since the loss of
paradise.
Then, according to Mussulman ira
dition. the rose is thus accounted for:
When Mohammed took his journey to
heaven the sweat which fell on the
earth from the prophets forehead
produced white roses. and that which
fell from the animal he rode upon,
named Al Borak. produced yellow
ones. AT the present day the sellers
Of roses in eastern towns cry aloud
In the streets. "The rose was a thorn,
and the sweat Of the prophet Moham-
med dropping upon it formed it into
rose" ,-D-.,-~

The marines ought to have such a
Marine Exchange Special" as the fol-
lowing read to them daily for a week:
TOXIC, February 12.-The japanese
have landed a large army on the north
side of Korea. This force will be the
first army of invasion to invest Port
Arthur. It is believed that an enga ge-
ment will occur within few hours be-
tween this army and the Russian forces
who are reported to be along the Yalu
River.
The landing was accomplished with
out opposition and the army has now
begun its advance. This force will inn
mediately advance across the Yalu
River into the province of Sheng King
in Manchuria, to begin the investment
of Port Arthur from the east.
1t would be hard to get more misin-
formation into so small a compass. If
such a dispatch was actually sent from
San Francisco. the Star should change
its correspondent there. It cannot af-
ford to print news so palpa bly, in def
anee of geogra ply, climate, topography
and military common sense.

MARK HANNA.

Senator Hanna is not expected to
live 1t is now clear why he urged his
friends so strongly to leave him out of
their Presidential calculations; he
knew that he could not stand the phys
zeal strain of a canvass But for this
reason there is little doubt, if he lived.
that his name would be presented to
the convention by Ohio and backed by
the delegations from other important
States.
Senator Hanna, in his active life as
Republican campaign director, suf-
fered much obloquy 1t is the rule of
the Democrats to single out the chair
man of the Republican National Com
mittee for abuse, the abuse increasing
in proportion to the success of the in
cumbent in making votes for his own
side. In this way Senator Hanna
came to be misunderstood even by
some of his own party. He was not
a Doodle politician; he was not a trust
inflated enemy of the working-classes;
he was not a broker in legislation; he
was not an INSCRIPTIONS manipulation
Instead he was, primarily, a great cap
tain of industry who made riches and
place, for himself by the leverage of
brains and character; and in politics
he was a sagacious and intrepid states
nan who merited the friendship. which
he enjoyed, of William Mckinley.

THE SITUATION

The war news is being cIouded by
yellow specials from San Francisco.
So far the Associated Press has report
ed no landing of japanese troops near
the Yalu. though a special makes
bold to disembark an army there with
out opposition from the Russian forces
in the neighborhood; and not only that
but to chart an Impossible route for it.
The public, if it wishes to avoid error,
viii stick to the reports of the Asso-
cfated Press and eschew all sensational
bulletins of the Hearst-Creelman type.
There were no startling developments
at the front yesterday. The Russians
lost a torpedo vessel, believed to have
been a mine-layer, also the transport
Sungari; the japanese lost a merchant
man. Distant firing at sea has been
heard, probably by passing vessels
The most significant item in the news
is that, in case of Russia's defeat, the
Germans will make a diversion in her
favor. That Paris sends this dispatch
is not certificate of character, though
Germany's desire to curb Japan may
be predicated of her action in join
ing Russia and France, in 1895, in the
task of crowding Japan out of Manchu-
ria.
There is no authoritative news as yet
from the army supposed to be on its
way from Nagasaki, in transports, to
land near Port Arthur Possibly some
thing will be heard about it within |
three days. Haste is necessary owing |
to the Russian concentrations.
The Associated Press reported the oc-
of Seoul several days ago.

STRAIGHT NEWS.

Some of the war dispatches published
in this city are so overloaded with
homemade padding and with misfit
speculation printed as news, as to de-
stroy their value to the public.
The Advertiser prints the news as it
comes, adding only such words as are
necessary to make the skeletonized
message Ineligible, reserving all com
ment or explanation to appear by it
self. This paper is always ready, on
call, to publish Photographic fac-similes
OF the original Associated Press mes
sages or specials received. If cable
grams are blind or subject to more than
one Interpretation, the fact will be
pointed out. The public may rely upon
getting the plain, exact and unadorned
news in these columns; and will thus
be subject to no illusions ass to the
character or progress of the war.

I. Whatever danger of war there may
be between England and France, lies
in the eagerness of the latter to help
Russia. According to Far Eastern pa
pers the terms of the alliance between
Great Britain and Japan concede Brit
ish neutrality as between Japan and
Russia UP to the point where any other
power may take sides with the Car.
IN such event Great Britain is bound
to become the active ally of Japan. So
if France, to save the prestige of her
yoke-feIfow in the dual alliance, enters
the Oriental lists, she must reckon with
her neighbor across the channel. So
must Russia. Under these circum-
stances the likelihood is that France
win keep quiet.

There is chance for the Japanese
to repeat the Hobson feat at Port Ar
thur and effectually bottle up-as Hob
son did not-the enemy's ships of war.
The entrance to Port Arthur is narrow
err than that of Santiago harbor and
is tortuous. If a big transport, loaded
with rocks, would dash in there some
night and sink anywhere along the
way. the Russian ships would be laid
up for the war.

TOBACCO CULTURE.

So far the tobacco experiment at Ha-
makua promises well despite nearness
to the sea. The crop is coming along
nicely under the expert care of Mr.
Confer and, like the improving tobacco
of the East, is being grown under
cloth canopy. BY such means the acre
value of tobacco in Connecticut has
been doubled.
A great industry depends on the sue
cess of the Sumatra leaf experiments
here. If Hawaii can put cigar on the
market as good in it's way as the
Manila, it will eventually get the trade
of the West What Americans want is
a tropical cigar of first-rate quality at
domestic prices-a cigar having the
Manila or Havana excellence without
tariff tax added to it's cost Key West
tries to answer this demand but it has
to import the raw material which,
though taxed less than the finished
product, nevertheless affects the price
of the smoke If Hawaii can grow as
good tobacco stock as Key West uses
and make a cigar which will enter the
States free of duty, then it will have
gained practical trade advantage.

Local naval experts say that it will
take two months, under ordinary cir
cumstances, for the Baltic fleet to reach
Port Arthur But there is no assurance
that the circumstances will be ordinary.
1t would not be like the Japanese to let
the enemy's ships sail from Alden to
Port Arthur undisturbed. In the mar
row seas between the Strait of Malac-
ca and Formosa are fine opportunities
to use a fotilla of torpedo destroyers
kept in motion by coal supplied from
Golfers hidden: along the way. An adj
venture of that sort would suit the Jap
anese exactly and as the Baltic fleet is
probably bringing no torpedo boats
along, the big ships would be in great
peril. Some of them would never see
the Far East; none would get there
on schedule time.

NEW ZEALAND'S RABBITS.
Formerly n Pest, Now a source OF
nevenue-$SO5,0O 900 worth
Shipped Last Yeas.

Rabbits, which have been the pest Of
Australia and New Zealand for many
years, have now become a source of large
revenue. Frozen rabbits to the value
of over $So5, 900 were exported from Vic
toria, New Zealand, last year. in addi-
tion to $4,000 worth of preserved rab-
bits. This business is daily increasing
Now that the trapping industry is such
an important one, employing as it does
several thousand hands, and is largely
effective in keeping the rabbit pest in
check, the chances are that the meth
DDS of compulsory suppression now en-
forced on landholders will at least be
moderated by the government.
The rabbits in Australia and New
Zealand were originally shipped from
England, and it is almost impossible TO
keep them out of the cattle ranches
Fences have been built around these
vast stations with a wire netting sunk
Is inches below the surface to prevent
the rabbits from getting inside but as
soon as grass becomes short on the
outside "Mr Bunnie" will burrow I'M
der the wire netting and eat up the grass
on the inside.
Rabbits in this country rarely burrow,
but are to be found in stumps of trees
and under fallen timber. In and about
Chicago, where land is divided for build
ing purposes, rabbits make their homes
under the wooden sidewalks, and can
be easily turned out by a good dog.
Such, however. is not the habit Of the

mercantile interests and are invariably
men of great business ability and fully
in touch With American customs. They
become keenly offended when mis-
taken for Cinnamon. That they re-

that there are only half dozen Japan

An investigation at Harvard college
observatory has shown that the Milky
Way has about twice as many stars as
any other equal area of the sky. This
ratio does not increase for faint stars
down to the twelfth magnitude, but the
proportion of stars of any given mag
nitude is the same as in other regions
The Milky Way covers about one-third
of the sky, containing about one-half of
the stars. About 10000 stars are of
magnitude &c, or brighter, 100 900 of
magnitude ST, 100000 of magnitude
II, and 100000 of magnitude Il 8. while
1t is thought-but not certainly known
that about 100000 stars are visible
In telescope of 10 inches aperture. that
is. down to about the fifteenth magni-
tude. There is no evidence OF any limit
to the feintness of the stars, although
he proportionate increase becomes less
for each successive magnitude.

Inland Empire Fruit.

W. d. Carlisle reviews the pres
ent product and the future pros
poets of the Inland Empire as
fruit growing section in a recent
issue of New York Fruit and Pro-
duce News. In part, Mr.. Carlisle
says:
''In reading the prophesies of
poor apple crop in many sections
of the United States, it may be en-
couraging to learn that there is no
such gloomy outlook in Washing
ton. That portion of Washington
bounded by the Cascade mountains
on the west, the Idaho line on the
east, British Columbia on the north
and Oregon on the south is the APP
pie emporium of the world.
"This territory in respect to its
soil and climatic conditions offers
the most abundant promise for
commercial orcharding. Apples,
pears, prunes and berries Of all va
rieties attain to their highest per-
lection and develop their greatest
abundance in this country. Such
an incident as an "of' year" in the
fruit production is unknown in
Washington The inherent wealth
and natural advantages Of this new
state are Wondrously inviting to
population, to investors and to all
worthy people seeking legitimate
opportunities.
The fruit producers of this state
have had some difficulties in mar
keting their products. Owing to
the dependence of Iocalretail mer-
chants and sellers Of fruits upon
the wholesale commission mer-
chants of the city for oranges, pine
apples, bananas, etc, they refuse to
buy from the producer direct for
fear of offending the wholesale mer-
chants. This condition, the result
of the great distance of this section
from the center of population and
the consequent high cost Of trans
portation, necessitates carload lots
and the use Of much ready capital,
which only the wholesale mer,
chants can afford Time, of course,
will relieve the producer Of this
burden"
