1t was on one of these forlorn occa-
sions that Mrs. Brady's patience snap
ped and her loyalty faltered. she
seized the pampered rose bushes,
made haste to Field Brothers. and
sold them, one and all, for scarcely.
more than the price of single meal.
When this was told to Brady, he
touched the hour of his supreme trlbu-
f1tion. His world fell away from be-
neathN his feet. Not once in the IL
years since then has the stupor which
came upon him lifted for long enough
for realization of his misery to sift
through
Matters went merrily with the rose
he made. Field Brothers. by skillful
advertising, were able to sell their ex-
elusive right to it's reproduction for
$4,000. Within a year ten times that
amount was being paid for it by en-
thusiastic purchasers here and
abroad.
For ten years past a moderate esti-
mate of the amount of money spent
annually all over the world for Amer
lean Beauty roses is $25,000000.
John Brady is still homeless in
Washington. His wife and the fam
ished children have died, one after
another. He himself is the recipient
of constant small charities from Wash
ington florists, any of whom will give
him bits of work, spraying, or cutting.
when his mind can be held to his
task.
At the funeral of William r. Smith,
the famous old Scotch superintendent
Of the National Botanical gardens,
who had. at eighty, the reputation of
knowing more public men-diplomats,
statesmen, and politicians-than any
other person then living in the United
States. there was an assemblage OF
men aggregating almost incalculable
personal distinction. Into the midst
of them crepi a shabby, bent old man,
who, with averted eyes and bowed
head sided into a corner and wept

without airy doubt the most humble
and obscure sorPpwer at the funeral
ceremony. He was John Brady, maker
of the American Beauty.

One thing only stirs him to overt

coveted red rose.
"Oh, that must be BENEFITS new
rose, the English beauty" said the
first woman to spy it.
Not at all, madame said Brady.
proudly, that is the American red
rose"
Then it IS the American Beauty"
said the lady not to be outdone.
And then ai>i there the name orig
mated, and not all of Brady's storm
lest persuasions could ever dislodge
1t. For the roses maker had already
decided that it should be named for
Judge Hagner. warm friend of Mr..
Bancroft, and Brady's bright particu-
lar star. and tshave the choice of its
name and theV christening ceremony
swept out of his reach at one fell
swoop would have tried the patience
of a saint.
Brady finally made the best of it.
and contented himself with assuring
Judge Hagner that things would have
been different If he had had any say
in them
From this time on, however, the his
tory of John Brady and his precious
rose begins to take somber turn Mr.
Bancroft died in 1891 bequeathing the
American Beauty to Brady as a tesla
ment of his affection and appreciation.
The famous gardens passed into other
hands, and Brady moved, with his
large and hungry family and his
handful of American Beauty rose
bushes, into little house outside of
/, Washington.
Things went rapidly from bad to
worse, Brady had neither money
nor the knack of picking up odd jobs.
| His eldest son was still too young for
responsibility, and the ages of the
others, in regular succession. dimin-
ished punctually by year. His wife
was frail, out of patience with power
ty, and worn to exhaustion with the
care of children.
Brady survived the first part of this
bleak period by observing the Span
is proverb. Patience, and shuttle the
cards" No stress of want could make
him part with his rose bushes. though
his wife, regarding him as a sort of
monomaniac on this subject, put her
noblest persuasions into the task of
undoing his resolve.
TO his reiterated tales of the for
tune that would come to him some
day through the American Beauty
rose Mrs. Brady reasonably replied
that she and the children were hungry
that very day and hour. and that more
than her soul was sick with hope de-
ferred
But some prescience of the inherent
value of his rose kept Brady obdurate
TO appeals, domestic or professional.
The world of fashion had all but
forgotten the interregnum of the
American Beauty in the Bancroft gar
dens. Rose culturists had thought.

lived its heyday. Only a few of the

GRAND JURY BUSY
County Inquest to Look Into Elect
ion Matters and Ask MIR.
Crane Some Questions.
NO LYNCHING EVIDENCE.
COlOred Man Chase Was Cross Ex-
amined For Two Hours Yesterday
Afternoon.

T. Who it was that broke into the
polling house of the first precinct of
the Third Election district on the
night of last November z, after the
polls had closed and while the Off
cials assigned to this precinct were
getting their supper, is a question
which the re-convened grand jury
for Anne Arundel county is eonsid-
ering today.
The election matter was brought to
the jury yesterday afternoon by Ar
thur c. Whittemore. a Republican
worker in the Third district, who was
before the inquest for some time.
The evidence submitted by Mr.. Whit
temore was followed up this morning
by the summoning of James Jubb and
Enoch +. Johnson, two of the election
judges in the precinct. In addition to
these there were several voters of the
precinct who are about the Circuit
Court House today prepared go be-
fore the jury during the day.
Although the jury, which is the
regular October inquest, was recalled
to indict Albert Tyler, of Eastport,
for the murder of his wife and son-in-
law, there is strong probability
that it will consider a number of
other matters before it is discharged
by the Court finally with the con-
vening of the regular January nom
jury term, on the third Monday in
this month.
Among other things it is understood
that the jury will call on William C.
Crane, of the Fourth district, to tell
what he knows of the system of jury
making in Anne Arundel being con-
trolled by political manipulators.
Mr.. Crane, who was a candidate for
the Democratic nomination to the
State Senate in the primary last sum-
mer,i in a measure backed up the state
ments of the Rev. Kenneth Craig, of
Brooklyn, and in communications to
the press claimed knowledge of the
system.
A communication from MIR Crane,
published in the Evening Capital
last night, was taken up by the
jurymen this morning, and it is prac-
tically certain that he will be sum-
oned before the jury completes it's
labors.
The jury yesterday afternoon again
put its probe into the lynching of
King Johnson, at Brooklyn on the
night of December 23, when Charles
Chase, the colored witness of the
murder for which Johnson was lynch
ed, and who was in the cell next to
the man the mob took out and
lynched, was cross-examined for near
ly two hours. 1t is understood that
he held to his original story of not
hearing what went on when the mob
came and that nothing was gotten from
him by the jury.
