that Mr.. Swift and his associates are
preparing to swing one Of the largest

ORCHID RAisERs SING PRAISE
Rare Specimen Sought for Years Il
Found in Tibet

Great excitement has been caused
among orchid collectors by the infor-
nation that a rare specimen whose
habitat for nearly fifty years has been
sought in vain has been rediscoyered.
There came to London in 1857. from
India, miscellaneous stock of or
chids. They were duly sold at auc-
tion. and some of them were bought
by Mr Fairlie of Liverpool. In his
possession they bloomed, and one of
Them was recognized as a variety pre-
viously unknown and of singular beau
". 1t was named after its owner
Cypripedium Fairieanum. The Indian
collection contained several other

specimens of the same plant and
keen was the competition that ensued
fer their possession. But most of the
purchasers simply wasted their money,
the plants did not flourish. The origi-
nal stock dwindled and died For
many years there has been only c-~
specimen in existence among orZ.i1d
collectors. and a diminutive one at
that. But its possession has been suf-
ficient TO confer additional distinction
on its distinguished owner, Sir Trevor
Lawrence, president of the Royal Hor.
ticultural Society. The aim of every
orchid enthusiast is to get hold of an
orchid that nobody else has. Sir
Trevor has several times been offered
big sums for his puny Fairieanum.
but nothing could induce him TO part
with it.
The Tibet expedition. which sought
TO open up the Forbidden Land 10 the
trade OF India. brought back speci-
mems OF pretty nearly everything that
could be obtained in that grim region.
One member of the mission who was
a ootanist discovered lot of orchids
which were sent TO Calcutta. From
thence two of them were dispatched
to Kew Gardens. One of them has
just f,owered and experts have pro.
nounced it the long sought and redis-
covered Fairieanum.

Russia must advance ont OF her
benighted condition. The eyes of
the masses have been darkened for
years. but light is now shining in and
upon them. and those who have been
responsible for the general ignorance
of the masses will have terrible
day of reckoning. Our natural SYM
pathy is with Gar Nicholas. because
we believe that he has been misled
as TO conditions by his bureaucratic
officers 1t hardly seems reasonable
that the czar, with ample avenues
of information. should be kept in ig-
norance for years of the condition
of his subjects; but it seems that it
is true. II was policy for the officers
of the czar's household to keep the
ear in ignorance of conditions, as
they prey upon the people so much
the more. But the time has come
when the czar must know and the
determination of the people TO pre-
sent the petition for increased rights
to Hhe czar himself is evidence that
they believe that he has been kept
in Ignorance of the true condition
of affairs.

\ WORTHY MOVEMENT.

\ most worthy charity is that

members of the Business Women s
National League furnish sum
mer resort where wornout business
women from all over the country
may recuperate. The idea had its
inception in the mind of a Denver
woman. Miss Louise Lee Hardin.
president of the Business Women s
Club.
The plan is to purchase a ranch, to
be used exclusively for the purpose.
To this haven Of rest can come those
broken in health, and amid the
healthful surroundings they can do
sufficient work to pay expense of
their keep, which will be merely
nominal.
The promoters of the scheme are
striving against almost insurmount-
able odds to make their ideal real
ity. The chief obstacle is lack of
sufficient funds; but by unceasing en-
deavor they hope TO be able to open
their rest farm in time to benefit
by the warm, healing sun of spring
time.
