Finds Everlasting Flower

Luther Burbank, the wizard botanist,
has succeeded in producing an ever
lasting flower of beautiful perfume
and color, which retains its beauty and
fragrance for months after it is picked
There is bouquet of these flowers in
Luther Burbank's library at Santa
Rosa, Cal. The flowers were plucked
in the Burbank conservatory a year
ago and their blossoms were kept as
bright and fresh as if they had just
been nipped from the plant. Burbank
has evolved this flower after careful
crossing, recrossing and selection from
a half-hardy annual which was dis
covered in West Central Australia. He
has named it the australian Star"
This flower grows readily in any
soil, but does best in sandy loan. 1t
blooms early and long. The blossoms,
which are very fragrant, are of a
beautiful crimson color and grow in
large clusters. The stems dry up some
what after the blossom is picked, but
the flowers retain their form and color.
No water is used to keep them.-Chi-
cago Chronicle.

THREATENS 0HAGE
Warning for Health Commits.
sioner in Doran's Speech

Deeming it inadvisable to ameliorate
the condition of the owner or agent of
commercial or fiat buildings by amend
ing the smoke ordinance permitting the
emission of smoke either half an hour
at any one time or ten minutes in any
one hour, Assemblyman O'Brien never
theless felt that they had something
coming to them and introduced a reso.
luton last night reducing the minimum
penalty.
AT the present time the ordinance
provides that any person found guilty
under its terms shall pay a fine of not
less than $25 or more than 800, nor
less than 10 days Imprisonment or more
than 80 days.
The amendment proposed simply
strikes out the minimum penalties and
provides that the Judge of the mu-
nicipal court may fine or imprison
from 81 or 1 day up to the maximum
stated in the ordinance.
In support of this amendment As
semblyman O'Brien naively stated that
It's purpose was to permit of a light
sentence upon any person who mad
Vertently or unknowingly violates the
ordinance.
Assemblyman Doran in speaking of
the amendment referred to the sup
posed agreement with DIR. Ohage. in
which it was taken for granted that he
would modest railroads no further. He
stated that he had since learned that
DIR. Ohage denies having made such an
agreement.
IF he does not care to carry ont a
reasonable agreement" said the speak
er. Il believe we are willing to go on
record as favoring a change of the or
dinance"

The auditorium project was practi
cally declared to be a nameless child
whom the Junior Pioneers association
would not father, in statement made
before the assembly by Judge E. w.
Bazille last night.
The imminent possibilities of an
auditorium in st. Paul, as indicated by
the enthusiastic meeting of the COM
mittee of 100 which met last Monday
night under the auspices of the Junior
Pioneers appears to have faded into
a remote possibility.
Judge Bazille was before the assem-
bly, to secure an appropriation Of
$1,000, which was to be used for the
purpose of celebrating the fiftieth an
niversary of the life of st. Paul. He
was called upon to explain how the
money was to be used and gave a sat-
isfactory explanation. He then took
occasion to disclaim any responsibility
on the part of the association regard
ing the proposition of building an audi
forum.
While the committee of 100 was call
ed together primarily for the purpose
of devising an appropriate manner of
celebrating the semi-centennial, yet
the entire heart Of the last meeting
seemed to be, celebrate properly by
building an auditorium" 1t was
thought at that time that the senti-

ASSEMBLY PLANS TO
FIX PHONE RATES
Northwestern Company to Be
Punished for Ignoring Coun-
Gil Committee

The absolute Indifference shown by
the Northwestern Telephone Exchange
company toward the proposed fixing of
telephone rates by the common coun-
Gil, as shown by the nonappearance of
any representative either at the con-
ference Wednesday night or the as
sembly Last night, rather piqued GER
tain assemblymen and was perhaps
partly responsible for the haSty action
of the assembly last night.
Referring to the lack of interest dis
played by this company, and in ac-
cordance with the opinion of the cor
poration attorney, that power to regu-
late telephone rates was an inherent
right of the common council, Assem-
blyman Doran moved that the corpora
ton attorney be instructed to draw up
an ordinance taking care of the matter
of rates along the lines of his commu-
nication which was presented to the
common council.
Considerable discussion was stirred
up over such immediate action and a
plea for delay was made by Assem-
blyman O'Brien. who stated:
L understand the company was not
notified of the conference meeting
Wednesday evening, is that SO, Mr..
Clerk?"
The clerk stated that it was a fact
that no notification had been sent
THE papers all published it and 1
have no doubt a representative of the
company would have been present if it
had been thought desirable" suggested
several assemblymen.
1T seems to me-" continued Assem-
blyman O'Brien, that if this matter is
going to be taken up by the council the
company should be given an opportu-
nifty of having a hearing, and to show
whether the rates are as a matter of
fact reasonable or not. 1 accordingly
move as a substitute motion that the
Northwestern Telephone company be
invited to appear before this body and
show why their rates are not unrea-
sonable. or that a committee of three
be appointed from each body of the
council to take the matter up with the
company. In any event, 1 don't be-
lieve an ordinance drawn up in ac-

mental side of the people would be
touched by the celebration and that the
patriotic impulse then aroused would
make itself known in subscriptions
that would render possible the building
of an auditorium.
A meeting Of the same committee has
been arranged for next Monday night
AS logically put by d. w. Lawler, when
the call was made, IF the entire COM
mittee, composed of the leading men
in the city, turn out, it will indicate to
certainty that the people want an
auditorium, and we will build one and
lay the corner stone as part of the GER
emony attending the celebration. If
they don't turn out, we may know that
the people are not enough interested in
the proposition, and no auditorium will
be built"
All these plans were closely entwined
with the Junior Pioneers. The en-
phatic statement by Judge BaZille at
this time that that association has
nothing to do with an auditorium
project will certainly give the matter a
decided setback.
The appropriation resolution of the
board of aldermen giving $1,000 to this
purpose was concurred in by the as
sembly.
