President Says Senate Has 10 Rat
lily Old Treaty

NEW PEACE DOCUMENT is Ex-
PECTED TO GAIN SUPPORT
OF DEMOCRATS.
ELSE He WILL CALL EXTRA SESSION

WASHINGTON. D. c., Feb. 10
The republican managers of the senate
are most anxious to avoid a special
session Of the senate if they can do SO
without neglecting the public bust
ness. The public business in this case
pertains more to the affairs of the lit
tie Dominican republic than it does
to the United States, and it all grows
out Of the arrangements made by Mr..
Roosevelt something more than q year
ago in which this government under
took to collect the customs Of the is
land republic, segregate portion of
the funds and apply them to the liquid
alton of the foreign debt.
This action was taken under treaty
negotiated by the state department but
which the senate has refused to ratify,
and therein lies the possibility of
special session. Owing to vigorous
democratic opposition, action on this
treaty in committee has been impossi-
BILE. but the administration considers
the matter so important to the peace
ana welfare not only Ol IodltO bolllii-
go but of the United States, that the
president has said he will call the SEN
ate together after March if it does
not ratify this treaty before the ad-
iournment of the present session.
Meanwhile a new and much more
simple convention has been negotiated,
one that deals merely with the financial
question and omits all reference to the
Monroe doctrine, guaranteeing SoVer-
eighty and other things that democrats
say mean the swinging Of the Dig
stick" Through the presentation OF
this new treaty the president hopes 10
obtain democratic support and ratiilca-
ton within the next month. as the
president is as anxious as anyone else
that when congress adjournS at the
time fixed by the statute there Will be
no occasion to compel the senate TO
remain here. But inconvenient as II
NAV he and undesirable as some SEN
ators think such a session is, the pfesl-
dent is understood to be determined
that this new treaty shall be ratified
and that this government shall continue
as the fiscal agent of Santo Domingo
with the full assent Of the senate

ORIGIN OF CHINESE LILIES.
Story as Told and How the Bulbs
Brought Good Luck.

Very few people who see and admire
the beautiful Chinese lilies know the
reason why this particular flower is
held in such favor in the orient This
is the story of the origin as told by
Chinaman.
Years and years ago a member OF
the celestial empire had two wives
whom he loved dearly because each
had borne him a SON While they were
still lads the father died and in set
ting up the estate some difficulty was
encountered for the man left his heirs
two pieces of land, one a strip lying in
a fertile and beautiful valley, the
other small ribbon of land bordering
the bed of a narrow stream. The for
mer land was known to grow anything
the country produced, while the latter
was counted utterly worthless.
1t was at first proposed that each OF
the two strips be divided in half and a
section of each be given TO the two
heirs But the mothers could not agree
upon the division and it was finally
arranged that one son should take the
Al1A letlAAt NAiiN NllC ON4lNA ohpuih SohN
the sterile piece.
The valley strip yielded bountiful
harvests season after season and the
rocky one gave nothing until one day
the boy owner happened to notice a
tiny white, sweet-scented flower
blooming among the rocks and after
a careful study and examination it was
found to be the only one Of its kind in
China The flower grew from a bulb
and the boy discovered that these
bulbs could be transplanted to similar
rocky soil without destroying their
growth.
Soon the bulbs were in great de-
mand and when it was learned that
the flowers brought good luck to the
owner of the plant the boy had all he
could do to supply the market From
the sale of the bulbs he grew enor-
mously wealthy, while his brother
never made more than a good living
out of his valley property.
