MINER GETS BIG MONEY

George Morgan, a miner of Cardiff Wales, came in possession of piece of land near Lands End that is es- timated to contain two million tons of hard coal, and for which he has a standing offer of 10000 pounds sterling. Usually the lands of Eng land and Ireland carry only surface rights, the Crown retaining the min, erals found below the surface, but Morgan appears to have obtained a proprietary right to the coal contain ed in his possessions and to be in a fair way to get out among the big fel- lows of that country.

During subsequent years re- peated efforts were made to send the seeds and roots of this plant to Eu- rope, but they always died. It was not until 1S49 that seeds shipped in a bottle of water were successfully planted in the gardens at Kew, Eng land. from which the plant has since been distributed over the world.
 The first Victoria Regia that bloomed in the United States was grown in the White House in an aquatic garden under glass, which was destroyed by fire when Andrew Jackson was presi- dent.
 This wonderful lily has leaves six feet in diameter, resembling huge trays floating on water. They have numer- ous air cells on the under side, and one of them will sustain the weight of 2O0-pound man. The native wom- en of South America put their chill dren on these great platters while gathering the seed for food. The blos- sons, which have a fragrance like that of pineapple, are white, with a pink center turning to rosy on the second day. They are from 15 to IS inches in diameter.
