ChrYcanthemums.

Chrysanthemums stand fourth in
commercial importance among flowers.
Only the rose. the violet and the car
nation surpass them, and that chiefly
because the chrysanthemum season Is
so short, while the others can be had

Chrysanthemum means golden flow
er." But the name was invented long
before the big butter yellow globes
were known in the occident. 1t re-
ferred to the prevailing gold in the
small varieties that were known.
Strangely enough, the first chrysan-
themum brought into Europe was not
gold. but purple. II was small flow
er about two inches across, shaped
like an aster. Somebody took 1t to
Europe from China IN l790-and, pres

In writing of the Schluesselburg
prison In McClure's Magazine David
Soskice tells of prisoner who was
chained to wbeelbarrow:
''Schedrin had been condemned to
hard labor In the convict mines of ST.
IBERIA and for an attempt to escape
from there had been sentenced to be
chained to heavy wheelbarrow.
When the order came for his transfer
from Siberia to st. Petersburg no con-
veyance could be found large enough
to contain him, the wheelbarrow and
the convoy Of gendarmes. Yet, as the
the prisoner. the gendarmes were
afraid to leave 1t behind. 1t was there
fore decided to place Schedrin with his
convoy In one cart and the wheelbar-
row behind In another. For several
months, day and night, Schedrin and
the gendarmes galloped through ST.
IBERIA upon troika Ia three horsed
cart or sledge,. while another sped be-
hind them upon which the wheelbar-
row reposed. causing the deepest
amazement among the peasants in the
villages through which they passed.
Upon the arrival Of the prisoner In IS.

chained to the barrow. and only after
he had been six weeks in the Schlues-
selburg was he finally detached from

POOR QUALITY IS
CAUSE OF PANIC
CATTLE PRICES MAKE
SHARP DECLINE OF s5C
eoOd Stuff Not so Bad, Although Un,
mt Cattle VIII likely Bear Down
Prices of Better Grades-Hogs
Down 25c.

Portland Union Stockyards, Stock
aale, Jan. 27.-Poor quality, that Is
the story of the cattle market at this
time, and accounts in q measure for
The panic Of puyers and the selling
Of this class OF stuff at a decline of
about 35c from former prices.
While continuance of the poor
run of cattle will surely affect the
price of good stuff, the alarm seems
TO have been sounded in the cattle
market a trifle early in the game. for
today a sale Of cows was made at
s4.3b, and that price surely indicates
a panicy condition in the yards so
TAR as good stuff Is concerned. Still
another sale Of cows was made at
stockdale during the dat at s4.25.
Same Old Story OF Quality.
Performance OF livestock prices
during the past 48 hours Is merely
the same old story. and the same old
condition of the offering OF poor
quality cattle in abundance when a
little of this class Of stock will go a
long way in the trade. II Is only the
poor stuff that has scared the buyers
and while It will necessitate the low
erins Of values for the better quality
" the movement Of unfit cattle con-
tinues for any period. still the outlook
Is not nearly so bad as a view Of the
price list would indicate.
Hogs Are Down 2Sc Again.
Local hog market Is down an ad-
dnional 25c per 100 pounds, and
very good quality Is being moved
around $3.50 and 1915. Weakness
In swine Is due entirely to the con-
dition OF the eastern trade. and the
lower prices there. SO long as Port
land and other North Pacific packers
depend upon the east for the pur'
chase of a large per cent OF the hog:
they pack, so long will the price here
b. regulated by what other markets
are doing.
Sheep market is not very active
but prices are showing practically nc
change from previous lists.

TO DEVELOP WATERWAYS
Largely Attended Convention at Prov
idence Will Discuss This I'M
portant Question.
(Herald Specially

Providence, R. l., Aug. 31.-One oil
the most notable gatherings ever asif
sembled in the United States in tho
interest of waterway development met
, in this city today when the third am
nual convention of the Atlantic Deep
er Waterways Association was called
to order. The attendance includes
upwards of two thousand delegates
and visitors, who come from every
Atlantic coast state Among them are
governors, senators and representa-
tives in congress, high officers of the
United States navy and many proms-
nent representatives of the CONNER
cial and industrial world.
The association was first organized
four years ago at the Jamestown eN-
position. Its object is to promote the
construction, as national enterprise,
of chain of canals connecting natu-
raj and protected waterways along the
Atlantic coast, thereby forming a
continuous inner navigation route
from Boston to Key West The pre-
ject has already taken practical form
in the beginning of construction work
on a canal across Cape Cod, which
when completed will eliminate the
long open-sea route around the Cape
from Boston.
Congressman ]. Hampton Moore OF
president of the associT
alton, called the gathering to order in
the Providence Opera House at 10
o'clock this morning An official
greeting to the delegates by Mayor
Fletcher was followed by addresses by
