Native species, and those least modi-
fed by mans crossing and selection
are most suitable for lawn and border
planting. Border roses should have
little pruning, the removal of the dead
wood and the cutting of the whole
bush to the ground every five to eight
years being the best way of handling
most varieties.
Climbing roses used for arbors and
trellises may be managed either to
give an abundance of bloom or to pro-
duce shade, but they cannot do both
satisfactorily, and they are not well
adapted to the production of shade as
many other plants. Climbing roses
should be pruned just after blooming
by having the wood Of the previous
years growth removed.
Cut-fower roses need clean culture.
severe pruning and special care; there
fore they should be planted by them
selves in secluded beds and should
not be used to beautify the grounds
In place of the roses appropriate for
lawns and borders. Cut-fower roses
should be cut each spring to within |
six Inches or one foot of the ground
for finest blooms, or one-third to one
half the wood should be left If the
object is large quantity Of blooms.
The essentials for satisfactory rose
growing are a well-drained retentive
soil, thoroughly enriched, preferably
with rotted manure. Cut-hower roses
particularly need heavy annual ma
nuring. Special care must be exer-
,ised to prevent the roots from drying
when out of the ground for transplant

BANDITS OFF
WAGON.
Robbers Flee When They See
Child Run to Tell His
Mother.

PHILADELPHIA, May "a
four-year-old youngster, who sensed
trouble when he saw the driver of
a milk wagon being held up at the
point of a pistol and ran into the
house crying mother" saved the
man several hundred dollars, which
he had in another pocket.
The younster, J. Morris Combs, of
Mt. Airy, was playing on Durham
street, near Cresheim road, when he
saw an automobile drive up to the
curb and d. man jump out. The
man, Furnishing pistol, ordered
Eugene Curran, a driver for Alb
bolts Attorney Diaries, to throw
up his hands.
The child ran for his mother.
Three men, who remained in the
machine became alarmed when they
saw the child run into the house
and told their companion to jump
into the machine. They then drove
off.
The bandits took between 5000
and $400 from Curran, but over
looked a sum nearly twice that
amount in. another pocket.
The same band Of men who were
in the machine attempted to rob
Paul s. Kilrain, another milk-wagon
driver employed by A. r. Hansell.
He escaped, although one of the
men threatened to shoot him.

INDIAN
WAS ORIGINAL
AMERICAN
Chicago Professor Denies Any
Other Race Preceded Red
Man on Continent.

CHICAGO, May 23.-In a feature
before the student body on South
American Indians, Past and Pres
.ent," Prof. William Fl. Haas. of
Northwestern University, asserted
that there was no race on the North
American continent preceding the
so-called American Indian.
Professor Haas also discredited the
reported find in South America OF a
skull purporting to be from the early
tertiary period, claiming that the So
called American Indian came too late
for us to think of him as a fossil.
'It never occurred to the white
man when he first came to this con-
tinent that here was civilization
that had risen without beasts OF bur
den, and that here was culture that
had far surpassed his own social or
ganization. Had the history we read
been written by the red man, the
story would be different one.
