headquarters for relief The union
men found a place for Benson to pass
the night and today he will be turned
over to the Brick Masons' Union and a
job found for him under the auspices OF
organized labor.
OTHERS ON THE TRAIN.
Benson says that of the men with
him on the train some were electri-
clans. others car repairers. masons. la
borers and linemen. He did not know
IL the Pullman porter was as kind to
them as to him, but suspected that they
had been warned and did not join the
railroad contingent. The man said that
when he was hired he was not told
that he was to come to San Francisco
to break strike. He had listed at
an employment agency, where Farley s
agent secured him. The Railroad ticket
was signed by Farley. Benson asserts,
AS surety that the men would not leave
the expedition en- route no one without
baggage was hired. and their baggage
checks were sent on to this city to the
United Railroads by mail.

The decorative" type of dahlias has
fiat, broad rays and is intermediate be-
tween the SHOW and the cactus
types and Is favorite for cut flowers.
The show dahlia is the familiar double
fowered type. 1t is the formal, quilted,
usually self colored flower of the earlier
florists. The cactus dahlia, the latest
type, has flowers with broad, fiat fforets
which are sometimes twisted, giving
them a characteristic and striking ap-
pearance. Pompon or bouquet dahlias
have smaller double flowers. There are
handsome single dahlias of brilliant
coloring and many yariegations. The
dwarf or bedding dahlias, mainly single
and growing only foot or two high.
are free bloomers and desirable for the
purpose indicated by their name.
