CHANGES IN FLOWERS
MODERN TASTE AS COMPARED
WITH OTHER YEARS.
Gardens q Today Would Be Things
OF Wonder TO Our Ancestors
All Countries Called on for
Beauty Of Color.

II is truly astonishing thing to re.
OF flowers would have been able to-
name scarcely single bloom In a
twentieth century garden, says the
Strand He would hardly have been
able 20 distinguish the queen OF flow
era itself, SO greatly has the rose
changed IN ghe last three centuries.
As for the begonias, the chrysanthe-
NUNS. the dahlias, the geraniums, the
fuschias and carnations; these were
unkncwn even to our great-grandfath-
ers. Many OF our most beautiful flow
ers are purely modern productions.
Three centuries ago there we're no
flower gardens in England What
were then thought of as gardens were
hcrbaria. places where rosemary, mint,
rue, thyme and sage grew, and per-.
haps few primitive blooms, such as
yiolets and primroses, were suffered
to exist, much as poppies and corn
flowers do today.
Many well known plants have been
developed from specimens discovered
H various parts OF the world, and there
is no doubt that a number Of charm
ing novelties are still lurking undis-
covered In remote spots. The chances
of valuable finds are, however. becom-
Ing unfortunately less every year. A
small army OF collectors is always at
In nf tho world
searching for new treasures to enrich
our floral store.
From South America came many
years ago tho recently Questionable
| fuschia; from the hills OF northern
India and Tibet have been brought
many useful varieties; from China we
have had among other things many
new primulas; Japan has yielded
wonderful rises; Africa many varied
plants, usually OF most brilliant and
gorgeous coloring: while numerous
charming members OF the narcissus
family have been discovered in the
Pyrenees. rev
| But this cannot continue indefinite
| ly, and even iu the realm of orchids,
for which perhaps the most systematic
search OF all Is made, there Is not
much left to be explored. For our fu'
ture novelties we shall have to rely
then chiefly on the skill of our hybrid
lists, who are constantly engaged In
mating different species OF the same
family of plants, and our cross fertil
izers, who arc doing similar work with
, different varieties of the same species
The flowers Of today are the result OF
ss-breeding, stimulated by electri
city, drugs and hot water baths.

TODAY is ANNIVERSARY
OF THEFT OF A TRAIN

In the National Cemetery at Chat |
tanooga there is a monument, sur
mounted by miniature locomotive,
which is an object of interest to all |
visitors. 1t commentaries one OF
the most thrilling adventures of the
Civil war. a struggle replete with
deeds of heroism performed by the
soldiers of both sides. Today is the
semi-centennal of that stirring cpl
sode, in which two dozen picked
Union soldiers led by James j. An
drews, Union spy, invaded the
enemy's country, and stole railroad
train, In an attempt to destroy the
bridges and telegraph lines of the
Western & Atlantic railroad. The
party left the army of Gen. Mitchell
at Shelbyville, Tenn, on April Z,
1852, and made their way with
great difficulty to Marietta, Ga.
Early on Saturday morning, April l.
|1S62, Andrews and his men boarded
1.-THE train they proposed to steal. At
Big Shanty station where the train
stopped for breakfast while the train
men and passengers were in the
dining room, the raiders uncoupled
three box cars which were in front
of the coaches and all climbed into
the cars except Andrews and two of
the party who were locomotive engl.
neers. The throttle of the famous
old locomotive, the General, was
opened wide and with defiant
shrek the engine sped down the
track and was we'll on its way be-
] fore the $500 Confederate soldiers
encamped near the track realized
what had happened, Safely beyond
fear of immediate pursuit, the train
was stopped and rail removed and
the telegraph wire cut Reaching
Kingston, three trains had to be
passed Andrews alleged that he
was taking ammunition to Gen.
| Beaureguard. and his claim was ac-
cepted without suspicion, as 1t was
known that the Confederate general
was greatly in need of supplies. The
Confcderates had not been idle, how
ever, and had taken up the pursuit,
first on a hand car until Etowah was
reached, where an engine was Sc
tempting to set fire to the Oostanaula
bridge their pursuers came upon
them Rain was falling and the
bridge refused to burn, Then began
one OF the most desperate races in
the history of railroading, To the
| Chickamagua bridge the Union men
managed to maintain safe lead,
lbut their attempt to set fire to the
bridge was futile. Near Ringgoid
the supply of fuel gave out, and the
ttrain was deserted by the men, who
sought to make their escape on fo0f.
Within Il few days all were prisoners
of the Confederates, and Andrews
and seven of his followers were eX-
Iecuted as spies. The Others were
imprisoned, and eight of them man
aged to escape, while the remainder
were exchanged about a year after
their desperate feat. The remains
!. of Andrews and his little command
lie buried in the Chattanooga ceme-
terry, where monument in their
honor was erected by the State o!
, Ohio about twenty-five years ago,
while military necessity demanded
that Andrews life pay the penalty
, for the failure of hish azardous pro-
, iect, his reckless bravery command
ed the respect of the brave Ameri-
cans who were his foes, as well as
| the admiration of his friends.
