KRAMER SENDS YIOLETS
TO THE TIMES STAFF

The prettiest proof that spring has
taken up its headquarters IN Washing
ton, came 10 the office OF The Wash
ington Times yesterday afternoon, when
one Of the biggest and most fragrant
assignment OF ViOlets that T. II. kra-
mer. the local florist, could get together.
found its way into the Offices OF the
staff.
Mr.. Kramer brought the violets over
from his dollhouse in AnacOstia. and
there were dozens and dozens o. cIus-
ters OF the delicate little purple blooms.
When the big box was opened in the
city room OF The Times it looked like
a git from Fairylaud.
Mr.. Kramer evidently selected the
choicest flowers fl his violet beds, for
when they reached The Times office they
were aglow with beauty and fragrance.
Everybody had yiOleJs and not only
Was this supply generous upstairs, but

porter had anything left IN his envelope
for next week and adorned themselves

Strikes DEATH Bloc TO Bad Breath,
OdorIeSS Onion the Latest Product
OF fRe Truck Farmer in California

Local admirers OF the healthful but
heretofore evIl-smellInE onion are deeply
Interested IN the report that a Chinese
truck farmer in California. who used TO
work for Luther Burbank, has succeeded
in amptuating the scent from that much
abused vegetable.
Truck farmers don't take much stock
in the report. They say that II the thing
produced by Wing Hop doesn't smell. 1t
isn't an onion. But people who suffer
silently in a BARRIERS chair, while an
onion-perfumed breath plays lightly
around their olfactory organs, have
grasped at the report as drowning men
grasp straws.
It is pointed out that II this discovery
is a fact, nothing so important has Oc-
CURED since the wireless telegraph or
the horseless carriage. No more Will

1t has even been proposed that here
after bouquets Of deOdOTized onions be
passed across the foOtlights to faYOrite

Cold, CallOus business men who deal
in vegetables, as has been stated, do not
place much credence in the report OF
Wing Hops achievement. They would
like to be shown. They don't believe
that an odOrless onion can be grown any
more than a smOoth-shaVen peach,

Onions are said to be particularly good

Wrestler Swaps
Stories of Mat

The President and Hackenschmidt,

about wrestling this morning. Hacken-
schmidt arrived with his manager, his
press agent, and two or three other fol-
lowers, and while he was waiting for
the President to spare d few moments
was the center Of attraction for the
tourists and social callers in the ante
room When the President finally got
TO Hack" he greeted him as an old
friend. They had met before, in Boston,
several years ago, and the President
who is a pretty good wrestler himself,
told the champion about a few of his
experiences when he was in training.
He told me- said Hackenschmidt.
''about how he used to train up at Al.
bany when he was governor of New
York One time he had as trainer an
Oarsman, who was a good rover but a
poor wrestler, and the first thing he
knew he broke one or two OF his ribs
Then the man out of revenge got some
other trainer for the President who
broke his ribs in turn
It was said at the White House after
Hackenschmidt visit that the wrestler
was little mixed IN his story. especial
