THE SUNDAY OREGOyiAN, PORTLAND, FEBRUARY 22, 1903.
MANY ACRES OF ROSES
COMMITTEE WILL FLAICT TIIEM ON"
FAIR GROUNDS.
Idea Ha Sever Before Been At
tempted In Any Expoaltlon
Ground la Available.
Ten acres of roses. Such Is the deelre
of the) committee on floriculture of the
Lewis and Clark Exposition as expressed
t the meeting yesterday afternoon. A
number of prominent raiegrowers were
In attendance and the members of the
committee learned many things concern
ing the culture of the flower which has
made Portland famous. It was decided
that the display of roses should be made
so striking and magnificent that the eye
of the Eastern visitor could not fall to be
attracted by the bcautlcw of the flowers.
How much ground would be needed to
afford a sufficient display was a much
discussed Question. The committee also
were anxious to know positively that
enough vigorous rose plants could be ob
tained to carry out the ldeao expressed
at tho meeting. Several entirely new
schemes were unfolded, among them being
that of George Otten. a Portland florist,
for the grafting of high-grade slips upon
wild rose stalks. The Importation of
rose plants directly from Europe was also
talked of.
The members of the rommlttee prcvnt
yesterday were: P. L. Willie, chairman;
"J. C. Cooper, George "IV. Riddle and A.
Bush. The rosegrowcrs and others who
attended were: Rufus Mallory. L. I Haw
kins. Fred O. Matthews, Major "IVlllIam
II. Barnhart. George Otten and G. S. For-
sythe, two florists of the city, A. J. Jonn
ecn. the Government forestry expert; Fred
V. Holman and J. B. Pllklngton.
At the close of the meeting a request
was formulated asking the State Federa
tion of "Women's Clubs throughout the
state to send from one to Ave' small native
trees from each county to beautify the
Exposition grounds. Oscar Hubcr. the
superintendent and engineer of the Ex
position ground stated that It was too
late to transplant trees of any size, so
those sent by the Women's Clubs must
be of a cdze'that will allow of their re
moval without Injury. The subject of
trees did not occupy much of the time of
the meeting, for. t& Chairman Willis
saida It was callel to consider the roses.
Those who weie not rosegrowcrs them
selves had a hard time to understand the
drift of the dlscusrfon, bo Intensely tech
nical did It become at times. Budding,
grafting, placklng and kindred terms left
some members of the committee quite at
sea, but the rose cranks ured them Just
the same.
Rufus Mallory waa the first one called
upon for suggestions. He passed It on
to Major Barnhart, who In turn called
upon F. V. Holman. "I am only an ama
teur," raid Mr. Holman, "and we should
not venture too deeply Into this project
without professional advice. Nearly all
varieties of roses except the Marshal Neil
grow well here, but most of them are
not continuous bloomers. To make a
great display, therefore, we must get
together a mass of such size that many
of the plants will be flowering all the
time the Exposition Is open. The Liberty
end one or two other varttleo are the best,
1 think, for this kind of, display. From
the number of plants I have In my garden
I think from 1M0 to 3000 should be placed
In every acre. There Is but one thing
about roses that In little armreclated and
that Is the fact that m wherever the rose"
grows 10 peneciion. mere all other prod
ucts o'f the temperate zone will grow vtAl.
The visitors who know anything about
rones .can tell the wonders of our climate
end soil from the condition of the roso
plant."
Rufus Mallory declared that the rose dis
play should most certainly be made a fea
ture of the Exposition. "We should make
It something that Eastern visitors must
notice and talk about. They have seen
too many fairs to be much Interested in
the exhibits in the buildings."
"Five or ten acres of Toscs would bo
none too much," said Mr. Holman. 'The
plants should be field-grown and not come
Xrom the hothouses or they -will be too
tender."
"There will be plenty of room in the
grounds for that much for the roses'
eald Oskar Huber, the superintendent.
Then Major Barnhart took the floor,
jen acres means 20.000 plants," said he!
"I have always obtained the best results
from California fleld-grown, budded roses
and they should be ordered and set out
right, away."
Mr. Holman thought the California
plants would not do so well' In this
climate. G. S. Forsythe was called upon
and gave as his opinion that it was too
late to bud native plants and that the
proper time was next Fall.
George Otten had listened quietly to the
discussion., but now unfolded his scheme.
This was to graft slips of cultivated roses
upon wild stalks, which can be obtained
in any quantity. This, he said, would
put. the plants a year ahead and would
Elve strong, vigorous rose bushes. "We
ant to get the American Association of
florists here In 1905 and should have some
thing to show them. Our plan of a lawn
or roses is something new and will at
tract the eye of anyone. King Ludwlg
LB,r.a,,ria ,once.h?1 solid 'plat of roses
about the size of this room and that was
considered a wonder. So far as I know
4i?er,h:?s ner.er tocen arthlng before of
the kind we plan, and the sight of a solid
f?.or lowering roses, ten acres or so,
wojld make anyone remember the Ex
position." A .technical discussion followed and it
SSit that 750 stlard and
about la.000 or more of the grafted wild
toSSTX "T1"5- oS said
In defense of his scheme that the grafted
bushes could be procured for about 23
cents each ready for planting on the
pounds. He would transplant them dur
ing the coming June.
,TfUb,eci . EurPean plants was,
brought up by Mr. Holman. Many of
tho plants purchased in tho East. It
seems are from Holland and Germany.

SIX HUNDRED APPLICANTS
Somber ot Men Who Are Anxious
to Serve the City.
The first regular meeting of the Civil
Service Commission was held yesterday
afternoon and was attended by all the
three members Messrs. A. A. Courteney
P. U Willis and C. W. Hodson. Mayor
TVllliams was unable to be present, and,
owing to his absence, Mr. Courteney was
elected president pro tern. The meeUng
-was simply for tho purpose of effecting
an organization, but Mr. Willis thought
.that some of the applications should be
considered.
"How many are there?" asked Mr. Hod
on. who had a presentiment that they
would run into the thousands and who
prepared himself to consider them one
by one.
"Just about C90." answered City Audi
tor Devlin calmly. "Let me see. though, a
tew have come in lately, and the num.
ber will be about GOO or over."
"For what' positions?"
"Mostly for places In the Fire, Police
and Street-Cleaning Departments."
"We cannot act unon tbenv'now." said
Mr. Willis, "and I believe," he added re
flectively, "our flrst duty under the
charter Is to' prepare and publish rules
governing applications."
"We should adopt the rules as soon as
possible." Bald Mr. Courteney. "Under the
old rules I see that the height of a man
seems to be the sole qualification, ex
cluding the mental examination. In New
York they require a statement of height,
weight and chest measurement."
"That may be necessary." said Mr. Wil
lis, "but before we can take any such
action we must pass the rules and give
notice of the time and place of examina
tion to all applicants."
The comml.tdon adjourned until Mon
day afternoon, when some steps In the
way of preparing rules will be taken.
A SUGGESTION HERE.
Lfwii and Clark Memorial BnlldlnK
Should Be Erected In City Park.
PORTLAND, Or., Feb. 20. (To the Edi
tor.) The Portland Railway Company will
soon bridge the Jefferson canyon and com
plete from the intersection of Ford and
Washington streets a double track elec
tric line to Portland Heights and on above
and beyond for a mile circle which for
scenic gradeur along the entire line will
be unequaled by any street railway in any
city of the world. It will run directly
from the center of Portland over the
Washington-street line, and also direct
from the Lewis and Clark Fair along In
front of the City Park, and on an ele
vation which with the connecting walk
ways now being constructed will easily
enable every passenger to pars on com
parative levels Into the center of the
present City Park.
On soma sightly elevation In our park Is
the place for the permanent building. In
It can be preserved the collections of the
Historical Society of Oregon and relics,
our museum and a gallery for works of
art all safe from destruction by tire and
easily accessible to the public for ages to
come.
Very many articles and things of great
value will be left with us from the fair
if we can suitably preserve them In our
public parks, and all thcoe collections be
forever open on public property to tho
public of the city, state and nation gen
erally. During the fair every visitor would want
to see our -City Park and the Heights and
enjoy their wonderful beauty and view,
and admission could be had Into this
building during the fair by separate tick
ets or by ticket coupon.'.
This building could be erected either on
the beautiful site Just back of the Loewen
berg property' or on some other of the ele
vated spots either In the present park or
In the 70-acre reservoir park adjoining,
owned by the city, and It could be so con
structed with large open windows or other
openings and with covered verandas as
to afford every facility and comfort In
the enjoyment of the unexcelled views In
all directions over the city and over moun
tains ana rivers and over the two sister
states of Oregon and Washington.
The attractiveness of its architecture
could be made such as that when viewed
from any part of the cltr bv dav or even
by night. If lighted by electricity. It would
be a very desirable feature of the fair
ana rorever after a source of pride to all
our people.
In this also can be secured manv nf tho
advantages so readily realized by all at
the original suggestion of a fair on the
elevated grounds in and adjoining the City
Park, and so thoroughly appreciated by
such leading minds as Senator Corbett
and others, while It would avoid every
objection urged against the City Park as a
tucauon ior tne whole or the fair.
The probabilities arc that bv the dr.
of this year this double-tracked electric
line will be completed and cars running
irum rum una wasnington streets, right
by the Cltv Park
combination trurs bridge with an open
wen unveway oi -ioot width for car
riages and on up the city view side of
Portland Heights to the summit views of
these heights beyond.
Let the Permanent Memorial Building In
commemoration of the achievements of
Lewis and Clark be erected In the City
Park- M. C. GEORGE

KEEP WAfCH ON BELDING
DEATH GUARDS ARE SET BY MUR
DERER'S CELL.
Applicants for Position Are Xot par
ticularly Pleased at Their Duties
Condemned Man Xot Worried.
Three men are engaged to serve as the
death watch over Murderer A. L. Beldlng.
They will stand watches of eight hours
each. The condemned man le never left
alone for a minute, sleeping or waking,
and thla system will be kept up until he
is led from his cell to tho scaffold. The
object of all this Is to see that he does
not defeat the law by committing suicide.
His spiritual adviser. Father G art land,
will be permitted to be with him as much
as he deslrea.
One man, appointed to act as one of
the death watch, after he arrived at the
Jail and was Informed what his duties
were, hesitated about entering on the po
sition. He thought there was something
uncanny or ghrat-Uke about It and that
In future he might be haunted with bad
dreams. He Anally pulled himself to
gether after seeing Beldlng and observing
that he looked much like other people,
and .the Jail was a very companionable
place, full of prisoners, and some visitors.
Beldlng bears up well, and his appetite Is
good.
Xo Court Tomorrow.
Monday Is a legal holiday and the Court
house will be closed. Today Is Washing
ton's birthday, which, according to law. Is
a legal holiday, and the statute aim pro
vides, "Whenever any legal holiday falls
on Sunday the Monday following shall be
observed as such holiday."
The Sheriffs ofllco will be cloned and
no taxes will be received, and the courts
will not be In session. The City Hall

Mayor Williams said, when asked about
It: "Business Is very much behind In the
city offices and I don't know of anything
to prevent the clerks from sitting down at
their desks and writing if they want to."
Xot Settled Yet.
The motion for a rehearing in the dam

BUILDING BONES.
Of Great Importance That Children
Have Proper Food.
A child will grow up with weak and
small boncfl or strong and sturdy frame,
depending on the kind of food given.
That's why feeding the youngsters Is
of such great Importance. The children
do not select the food the responsibility
rests with the parent or guardian, or with
you if you select the food for a boy or
girl.
The scientific selection of this food
should begin as early as porelble. That's
when the delicate little plant needs the
tenderest care. A well-known lady of
Calletoga, Cal., says: "About two years
ago my little niece was taken sick. When
medical aid was called one phyaiclan
pronounced the case curvature of the
spine; another called It softening of the
bones and gave but little hope'pf her re
covery. For weeks she had been falling
before her parents thought it anything
but trouble from her teething.
"She had been fed on mushes and eott
foods of different kinds, hut at last her
stomach cold retain scarcely anything. At
this time she had become a weak little
skeleton of humanity that could not much
more than stand alone.
"The doctors changed her food several
times until finally she was put on Grape-
Nuts, which, she relished from the flrst
and ate at almost every meal and .her re
covery has been wonderful. She has
been galnlnsr ever since tn strength and
