In MEMORIAM.

HARMAN.-In memory of CATH
ERNIE E. HARTMAN, who departed
this life six months ago today.
We had little treasure once,
She was our joy and pride,
We loved her, oh perhaps too well;
For soon she slept and died.
All is dark within our dwelling,
Lonely are our hearts today,
For the one we loved so dearly
Has forever passed away.
BY HER PARENTS.
VANOUS.-In loving remembrance of
our darling daughter, EDNA ",
who died six months ago today.
Days of sadness still come DER US,
Tears of sorrow silently flow;
Fond memory keeps our baby near US
Though Heaven claimed her six months
ago.
We knelt beside you, Edna dear,
Hung over your sad death bed;
And gazed upon your loving face
Until your spirit fled.
A bud the Gardener gave us:
A pure and loving child,
He gave her to our keeping
To cherish just short while.
But just as it was opening,
To the glory of the day,
Down came the Heavenly Gardener
And took our bud away.
BY MAMA AND PAPA.

SAVED LIFE OF REDEMPToRISTS
Two Former Priests Here Narrowly
Escape Drowning.

In an accident at Rockport, Mass,
yesterday which caused the sinking of
a motorboat, two Redemptorist
priests, formerly of Annapolis, mar
rowly escaped drowning.
In the party were seven Redemp-
torist fathers, Rev. Father James
Clark and Father Henry Bergman,
formerly attached to st. Mary
Church. The boat was at the point
of sinking when life savers arrived
and took off the occupants.

MARYLAND DAY EXERCISES.
Governor CrOthers Invited To Attend
Celebration At The Terrapin State

Astoria, Ore, Aug. I1.-Although
Governor Austin L. Crothers has not
seen his way clear to attend the Mary
land Day exercises at the Astoria Cen
tennial Pageant which are scheduled
for August Is, every preparation is
being made TO care for the pilgrims
from the Terrapin State.
So far the Astoria Centennial Con-
vention has been asked to make hotel
reservations for 1,o26 persons from
Maryland, and in each instance the
reservation was atteded to on the day
of receipt. Coming in the middle Of
the summer vacation season, the rail.
roads are doing everything to make
the Centennial Pageant a huge sue
cess.
Every tourist buying a ticket in
Maryland is told that he may 90 TO
the Astoria Centennial just as cheap
as if he intended only going to San
Francisco, Seattle or Portland. The
Pacific Coast rate and the special
rates in vogue because of the Centen-
Mai enable one to make the round trip
from Maryland for S102. sc, and Mary
landers are taking advantage of this
low rate.
The Centennial Committee, organ
lied to perpetuate the founding of AS
toria by the John Jacob Astor trading
party which sailed out of New York
city century ago has provided numer-
Gus spectacles, land and marine pa
geants for the entertainment of the
visitors, including a drama entitled
1.-The Bridge of the Gods. by Mis-
| Mabel Ferris.
Sixteen naval vessels will be in the
harbor during the time the visiting
Marylanders are here, and there will
be a sham battle on MARYLAND Day.

search in the adaptation of plants for the
needs of the American people is shown by
the fact that there are more than 100000
different species of plants in the world.
mankind. The people of the United
States use only about 800 kinds, except in
the most limited way. One needs to go no
further than the rice industry to find
troduced crop. There are now upward
of 100000 acres of rice grown annually In
the United States and the farm value of
the crop amounts to S16,OOO.OOO.
In its efforts to eliminate bad burners
from cigar stands the bureau of plant in
dustry has constructed a mechanical
smoker, consisting of a series of glass
tubes SO arranged that each smokes
cigar just as a man would; except that
the "puffs' are of exactly uniform
strength in each tube. A carefully ad-
justed aspirator draws the proper inter-
mittent current of air through the cigar
and accurate observations are made to
determine the rapidity with which each
one burns. Each cigar is carefully scored
upon the several points which go to make
up a good record. Some burn evenly,
some rapidly and some down one side.
In others the wrapper Fuckers ahead OF
the fire and a black notwithstanding ring
forms around the cigar. These are unde-
sirable. The character of the ash is also
tested. and if it flakes badly or is dark
and dull the cigar is not good one.
The bureau also has charge of farming
experiments and Investigations. 1t is
claimed that by intelligent methods of
cultivation millions of acres of arid land
can be made to produce the finest kinds
of crops, and that without irrigation.
The important essential is to plow very
deep and to pillow very often. thus keeping
loose soil at the surface. through which
the moisture below cannot escape.
The work OF mapping, classifying and
investigating the soils of the agricultural
districts of the United States is Entrusted
to the bureau of soils. This bureau is
engaged in making detailed maps of i'm
portant areas throughout the better-de-
veloped sections of the country and re-
connoissance maps. showing less detail
of the great plains region and other
sparsely settled districts. 1t also studies
fertilizer requirements and the relation
of different types of soil to crops. with a
view to determining what crops can be
grown most advantageously. Seven hun
dred different types of soil have been
found in the areas so far surveyed.

cine for the prevention of blackleg in cat
tie to the extent of about a mill ION doses
a year. Likewise it distributes tubercu-
lin for the diagnosis of tuberculosis IN
cattle. and mallein for the diagnosis OF
glanderS in horses.
The bureau of animal industry has also
had an important part in the work OF
sanitary Improvement of milk supplies.
and has co-operated with the authorities
of many cities to that end.
One of the most interesting bureaus in
the department is that of plant industry.
This bureau studies the diseases of plants
as carefully as physicians study the
diseases of men. 1t not only disseminates
information with reference to the dis
eases, but is constantly experimenting in
its efforts to produce specific remedies.
For instance. it formerly was the GUS
tom of apple growers to spray their trees
found to be injurioHs, and the bureau Of
plant industry worked out new method
of spraying with non-injurious sulphur
compounds. In it's investigation of the
fruit spot and leafe disease, known as
cedar rust or orange rust of the apple. a
remarkable fact has been discovered. The
fungus which causes the disease must
have each alternate generation on the red
cedar If the red cedar is eliminated
from the vicinity of apple orchards this
disease y easily stamped out. This meth
cd finds a parallel in the mosquito theory
Of yellow fever in the human race.
One of the most interesting activities of
the bureau of plant industry is its work
in ransackng the world for new crops
for the American agrfculturlsts. 1t has
brought dates from Egypt and the GASES
of the Sahara. durum wheat from Russia,
millet from Siberia. wild peaches from
China, and many other plants from every
region of the world. In addition to this
it has been carrying on a process of
cross-breeding in plants which has been
of inestimable economic value to the
American people. 1t has been estimated
that the Introduction of durum wheat is
worth millions of dollars. One of the re-
markable successes of the bureau in
cross-breeding has been the development
of an orange harder than the Florida
orange by crossing that variety with a
worthless but hardy orange tree from
Japan.
That the bureau has a wide field Of re-

KITCHEN RANGE ONLY
FOR THE ARMY COOKS
Providers of Provender Ex-
empted From Target Prac-
tice by Recent Order.

Army cooks will hereafter devote them
selves entirely to preparing palatable
morsels for soldiers and wrestling with
problems around the post commissary
and cook stove, and not divide their en-
ergies between learning to fire a shot
straight and becoming culinary experts.
So the army officials have decreed. An
order will be issued within. a few days
relieving cooks from target practice on
the ranges.
Confined to Kitchen Range.
If cook is to be a cook, let him spend
his time in the kitchen. for he has no
interest in learning to fire bullet
straight, is the way the army officials
have figured it out His interest, they
think. lies principally in firing a stove.
and, incidentally. to firing the good things
into the pots and pans on the stove.
1t is pretty hard for the army cooks to
spend part Of a day on the target rance
and then hustle to The post and prepare
the meals of the other soldiers, whose
duty it is to learn to handle a gun. De-
Tending the stomachs of the men from
badly cooked food would be the problem
faced by the cooks in time of war, leav-
ing to others the matter Of defending
the country.

ADVANCE IN DIAMONDS
Unsettled Conditions In
Diamond Markets.

= According to the latest reports from the dia-
mond centers. Amsterdam and Antwerp, there
will be additional advance Of from 10 to 1879
In the price Of cut diamonds.
This Is caused by the organizing Of the dia-
mend cutters into unions after the pattern of
our labor unions and the demands for hisher
wages. also by raise in the price of uncut
stones by the London syndicate.
Mr. Adolph Kahn, the jeweier OF 935 street
who has just returned from abroad. when inter
viewed stated that while in Antwerp AMI Am
sterdsm he had foreseen this advance and had
bought large quantities Of diamonds prices
at which IL Is now impossible to obtain them
For instance he can now sell a n-carat b.re-
white diamond for $35. which should be at. least
$50. a l-carat diamond for $500, which should
bring $17j.
