Waterloo Day.

When Col Roosevelt returned from his
African trip two years ago he landed in
New York on the 18th of June. and at
tention was then called 10 the fact that
that day was the anniversary of the bat
tie OF Waterloo This was recollected
when in November he suffered a severe
defeat in the New York state campaign
The republican national convention meets
June Is. again the anniversary of the
battle Of Waterloo, and there is room for
speculation now in the possibility of sig
niicance in this coincidence OF dates.
Does it mean that MIR. Roosevelt will be
nominated only to meet in November the
same fate that was his in 1910 in the
state campaign? Or will this be a real
Waterloo III all respects. and not merely
the beginning OF disaster? The Napole-
onic legend has been sufficiently identified
with Col. Roosevelt's name TO render
such suggestions interesting, if not con-
elusive. Probably democratic supersti-
tons are quickened by the thought that
the day chosen for the republican gath
ering IS. in any event. portent of good
omen for their party.

lessness of flower hooters. For posses
sion of the beautiful blossoms for a brief
time many persons are willing to destroy
the entire plant. or at least by breaking
it, set back its growth for years.
1t is easy to recall when the wooded
hills and wales around Washington were
thick grown with this beautiful plant and
mingled with it was another shrub-a
woody plant with conspicuous pink
fowers-v hich all the country folk knew
as wild honeysuckIe," but which was
probably azalea. This plant has nearly
disappeared and the laurel has been sadly
thinned.
Laurel, because of its lack of album
dance and coming rarity, is now found
in florists shops and is cultivated in some
of the public gardens of Washington,
White House ellipsc and the Monument
grounds. One of the beauty features of
Rock Greek Park at this season is
thickets of laurel Just now rich in pink
and white bloom.
City people ought to enjoy the spectacle
which this plant presents. and let it go
at that to the end that all other people
may enjoy the same prospect Destroy
