Lazzari's meteoric career has covered the brief span of three and a half years. In April, 1917, she was practically unknown. In May of 1919 she was proclaimed the leading con tralto of the Chicago Grand Opera company. She is of French-Italian parentage and is an accomplished linguist. Mrs. Wendell Phillips, wealthy Bos ton society woman, the only woman delegate to the recent Inter-allied conference on reparations and in demnities, has returned to New York. At the conference she represented the American Legion and the 47.000 dis abled United States war veterans. Mrs. Phillips holds the rank of third degree commander of the Legion of Honor, the highest position of this kind granted to a woman. She founded the "Carry On Association," to which she contributed $160,000 personally. She is national chairman of the association, which has for its purpose the aiding of wounded war veterans. During the war she served more than a year in the battle zone and was wounded.

LOUIS IN CIVIL WAR Taking of Camp Jackson Depicted by Dr. C. E. Cline Capture of Mili tia and Protection of Arsenal and Subtreasury Kept Missouri in Union. o Next Tuenday 1 the 60th mnniversary of an important occurrence of the civil war. the holding of St. LoOia by the union sol diers It is described In this article by Dr. C. K. Cllne. retired Portland clergyman and civil war veteran. BY DR C. E. CLINE. . XE of the outstanding incidents for the preservation of the union, which occurred May 10, 1!61 60 years ago was the holding of St. Louis at the outbreak of the civil war. Contest for the United States arsenal in the south part of the city on the bank of the Xlisissippi river began early in the war. The arsenal contained 30.000 percussion-cap muskets. 1000 rifles, a few old flint-lock muskets and about 40 cannon, witn a large amount of ammunition. It was the settled policy of the se ceding states to seize the United States arsenals within the boundary of any slave state that had. or was likely to srcede. Each party, north and south, saw clearly that whoever l.eld the arsenal at bu Louis would hold tho city and those who held St. Louis would hold the state of Missouri. In addition to the arsenal and its contents, the sub treasury vaults in St. Louis contained $400. ouo In gold a vast sum of money in those days. Soldiers Leave Sabtreaar7. General Harney, who was at the time In command of the department of the west, strange to say. ordered a detachment of federal soldiers sent from Washington, D. C. to guard the eubtreasury to the arsenal, leaving .the immense amount of coin in the vaults unguarded. General Harney was more than 60 years old. a southerner by birth, and for several years had lived in St Louis, and though a gallant soldier, was so linked in tlft city and in the south with southern families that iht war department ordered him to serve in another field. Seing his loyalty under suspicion, he resigned his com mission and retired to a fine farm owned by him near St. Louis. Stationed in the arsenal was one Captain Nathaniel Lyon, in the primn of life, a graduate of West Point, 5 foet and 7 inches tall, of sandy com plexion with stubby whiskers and hair, nervous and of unquestioned loyally to the union. Withal, he had a rare gift of insight into the mo tives and intentions of rren. Through the influence of Frank, P. Blair and Oliver D. Filley, Captain Lyon was placed in command of the arsenal over at least two . men of higher rank. Each party now began to struggle to gain its end one to seize, the other to hold the arsenal. One party de clared: "Come what may, we will take the arsenal." The other responded: "At all hazards we will defend anil hold it." Missouri, it will be remembered, had a governor, Jackson, who, while pro fessing loyalty to the United States, secretly was doing everything In his power to carry the state out of the union and into the southern confed eracy. About the middle of April he visited in St. Louis and arranged with one "General" Frost to form an encamp ment of "Missouri state militia, to p!ace the city and state in a proper attitude of defense(?)" This camp was accordingly estab lished at Lindell's grove, on Olive street and Grand avenue. Volunteers Are Enrolled. To this camp volunteers from all parts of the state flocked, among them four companies of St. Louie' "Minute Men," organized with the avowed .purpose of capturing the ar senal, repaired and went into daily drill. In honor of the governor they dubbed their encampment "Camp Jackson," and were armed with guns sent by President Jeff Davis from Baton Rouge. The. force now in Camp Jackson numbered 7000 men, well armed and ready for action. But nothing es caped the lynx-eyed Captain Lyon, in command of the United States arse nal, who hnd replaced and strength ened the guard around the treasury vaults with its wealth of gold; plac ing also a heavy guard of which I was one (private in 7th U. S. infan try) at Long lake railroad bridge, on the opposite side of the river, over which trains bringing troops from Sprlpgf ield. 111., to St. Louis must pass. . a May 9, Captain Lyon arrayed him self in the bombazine gown and close -eil of Mrs. Alexander, the mother of Airs. Frank P. Blair. She was an in valid and blind, in a- light open car riage driven by a negro he went up and down the avenues of Camp Jackson. He observed their names. He saw their arms and noted from whence thev came the government arsenal at Baton Rouge. .No one challenged him. Nearly all the blooded fellows in their camp from St. Louis knew Mrs. Alexander, and that she was ac customed to be -driven by their negro hired man. That night was spent planning 'the capture of the secession camp. The plan was to divide his force into three detachments and cose upon Camp Jackson from three diferent direc tions. Everything worked without a hitch, all three divisions arriving simultaneously on different sides of the camp with the artillery in posi tion on a rise of ground, where it could swe?p the entire camp. Captain Lyon now sent a. communi cation to "General" Frost, demand'ng immediate and unconditional sur render of his entire command, giving him 30 minutes by the watch to de cide what he would do. Front Commits Staff. Frost held a consultation with his staff and, as might be supposed, of brief duration. He surrendered. They turned over all. their arms. ammunition, accouterments and camp equipage, all, or nearly all, the prop erty of the government of the United States, which had been only a short time before brought up the river on a boat called the "Swan," in charge of a commissioner or the Confederate government, Basil Duke. After the surrender the excitement was beyond description Men came running from every direction with shot guns, rifles, pistols, axes and sticks of cordwood to reinforce Frost's men. Unfortunately, they ar rived too late If they had come 30 minutes earlier the number of pris oners taken by Lyon would have been much larger. Captain Lyon now offered to re lease the prisoners if they would take an oath to support the constitution and laws of the United States. This they refused to do. The march was now taken up for the prison' In the inclosure at the arsenal. Many of the prisoners be longed to families of high social standing in the city. RegolarH Are Abused. The United States soldiers march ing on either side of the prisoners now became the objects of all man ner of scorn and abuse, women espe cially crowding close up, gesticulat ing, cursing wfth stinging epithets, throwing at their ' heads chunks of coal, flat irons and rocks. Among these were the men who had come running with arms to reinforce th; camp, striking with their fists and the butts of guns the, union soldiers. Human nature at last gave way, and against the command of their offi cers, one company fired tw$ volleys into the excited throng. The result was pitiable. About 27 persons were either killed or wounded. This catastrophe stirred the city to its depths, and none deplored the un necessary bloodshed more than Cap tain Lyon "and his subordinate of fi-j cers. When night was slowly shutting . down on the city soldiers and pris-! i oners arrived at the arsenal; tne ! former to stand guard over their new charge, and the latter to think over I the sudden change of their affairs. Sherman Sees Capture. At the taking of Camp Jackson-that day was a spectator destined to take a great part in the four years' strug gle practically inaugurated by that day's events. He was a graduate of West Point and had served as an under-officer in the regular army had been clerk In a bank in Saij Francisco, a lajvyer in wayjnworu, Kas.; superintendent of a little mili tary academy in Louisiana, and at the time was president of a hotSe streetcar company in St. Loui: William Tecumseh Sherman. Nor was that all: The day's pro ceedings were witnessed by a silent modest man, before whorn that day's work was the opening of a marvelous career, of which he himself had never dreamed. Thirty-nine years old. graduate of West Point, he had seen service aa a second lieutenant in the Mexican war, spent some time in humdrum life as a regular army man in time ofc peace at Vancouver bar racks, during which time he was frequently in Portland. Resigning from the army, he became a rather poor farmer near St. Louis, then real estate man, and tanner of leather Ulysses Simpson Grant. Receiving from Governor Yates at Springfield, 111., a hint of what was about to take place at St. Louis, he dropped down there to see how it was done. ' City Saved to I nlon. Thus was the slave-holding city of St. Louis, allied with the south, at a pivotal point on the Mississippi river, by the loyalty of men like Francis P. Blair. Oliver D. Filley, James O. Broadhead, Samuel T. Glover, John How and Julius Witiigr with the fore sight and ralor of Captain Nathaniel Lyon, saved to the union; the history of these events has been written by Fiske, Moore, Carr, Congressional War Records, Basil Duke, and Rea Galusha Anderson, pastor of a Bap tist church in St. Louis, 1858-66.

An Oddfellows' travel ing card, 71 years old, and carried for thousands of miles by the owner, J. W. Kirkland of Independence, Is a highly prized keepsake.

A peculiar thing about this card's touring is that not withstanding it accompanied Mr. Kirkland on his pilgrimages for the thousands of miles, not-one mile-was on a railroad train. In February, 1899, Mr. Kirkland compiled a chronological history of this card, telling the story, in outline, of the wanderings of a young man. It is given below: Issued to me March 28, 180, from Paris lodge. No. 29, I. O. O.

CAT AIDS LIQUOR HOUND Feline Smuggler's Accessory Plays Part In Importing Scotch. New Orleans Cor. New York World. The captain of a ship had some Scotch in his cabin and wanted to transfer it to a thirsty family in the best part of this city, but customs officers barred the way. Then a taxi was backed up against the wharf. The steward received or ders from the bridge to produce the ship's cat in a sack. The old man hadn't got off the gangplank before he was pounced upon by a customs man. -Wotcha got in . thatr sack?" he asked. "A cat," was the reply. "Let's have a look at it," persisted the law. The bag was opened and out hopped Thomas and scuttled back aboard. The captain chased after it. Pre sently he appeared with the sack. "Didya get him?" asked the customs man. "I sure did and he won't (fet away again." was the reply. "Sorry to give you all that trouble, captain, but duty is duty, sir." "Don't mention it; I admire yo-u for it. What the service wants is more men like you," said the skipper, as he i)l Imbed aboard the taxi with his sack, which this time, instead of -a cat, con tained three bottles" of Scotch. Tomorrow Is a Comfort. New Tork Evening Post. How sweet a consolation there is in that little word "tomorrow!" The poets have given it an unduly melan choly tang probably because "sor row" and "borrow" are the only ready rhymes for it. You can never trust a poet to tell the truth' when he is pinched for rhymes. For poor, easy going humanity "tomorrow" solves all problems. -Tomorrow (we trustfully say) the shirts will come back from the laundry; we will write that letter to Bill; we will give up smoking; we will be brave enough not to temper our cold bat with warm water. To morrow, after we have had a refresh ing sleep, we will compose the im mortal poem: we will refashion our life on an austere, reasonable philoso phy; we will get our hair cut; we will astonish the boss. Humanity must be fond of tomor row, because there is always so much work being saved for that occasion. He that works tomorrow will triumph yesterday. It is sad to reflect that for each of us there is coming, the day with no tomorrow. BY SHEBA CHILDS HARGREAVES. THE PEONY is the aristocrat of the flower garden. Its geneal- ogy may be traced to Greek mythology. It was used on Mount Olympus for the heaiing of the gods; in fact, it takes its name from Paeon, who was ceurt physician to the Greek gods. Our word paeon, meaning song of 'praise, comes from the same source. The history of the peony reads like a romance, as -It figures largely in the history of the Roman empire, and has, since earliest times, been grown in China and Japan. It must have been introduced into Eng land and France very early, for it is mentioned in "The Vision of Piers Plowman," an allegorical poem, writ ten about A. D. 1375, When we speak of peonies, we gen erany mean the herbaceous peonies bushy plants 3 or 4 feet high, which die completely down in the fall. The officinalis is the double red "piney" of old-fashioned gardens. This is the peony of Greek mythology, but the modern improved type is a different species. It is peony alfoiflora and has almost entirely superseded the peony officinalis. Albiflora (white flowered) is sometimes known as the Chinese peony; it was Introduced into Europe about 50 years ago, and is a native of the vast region which extends from central Siberia to central China. 'By far the greater number of the vari eties which we grow today originated In France, though we have varieties of English, German and American origin. Tree peonies, known in China as mow tans, are very little grown in this country, though in China and Japan, they are known as the "kin of flowers. They are said .to be perfectly hardy and to require ,the same treatment as the herbaceous kinds. They form bushy shrubs or little trees, which bear immense blooms, both single and double; th? range of color and form is said to be even wider than that found In th herbaceous sorts. They have always been scarce as they are hard and slow to propagate. This makes the choicer varieties almost prohibitive in price for the ordinary gardener. Coming back to herbaceous peony, Mrs. Edward Harding, who is con sidered the American authority on peonies, lists eight types of bloom in her "Book of the Peony." Starting withv the original single form from which all the others are developed, the next in order is called the Japan ese type the doubling process has just begun, then comes the anemone. with the center petals narrow and short. The semi-double goes a step farther in the doubling process, the crown type still snows the ring Of guard petals. In the bomb type the guard petals have disappeared and the petaloids have become broader. The semi-rose has petals of uniform width and differs from the rose type only in that it shows a few stamens. The doubling process is complete in the rose type which has all the petals resembling the guard petals. The better varieties of herbaceous peonies are rather expensive some very choice ones range ,as high as 135 for a single root but fanciers consider them well worth the money. though many of us would not sleep well nights if we .had so much money tied up in a single flower. There are, however, many excellent named vari eties which are within the reach, of the flower lover who has very little to spend on his garden. a The difficulty of propagation Is the reason for the prices remaining to high. Unlike the rose, which may be increased very rapidly from cuttings, the peony increases only ty root ul- a few blooming plants. Some of the older varieties are stiM very scarce. The new varieties which develop from seeds take from 4 to 6 years before blooms appear, and t.ien a-very email percentage of the plants-show flowers with distinctive characteristics which warrant their being introduced as a new variety. When a fine new vari ety is discovered it is a long time bfore enough ro'ots can- be grown t enable it to be placed on the marKet. But while the first cost may seem high, the peony In the long run :a really an economical .plant to buy, for It represents a permanent investment. A peony will last as long as the gar dener will, and even descend to his heirs. All that is asked is an occa sional enriching of 1 the soil and a plant may be left undisturbed for from 10 to 20 years, or even longer. The peony has many uses in the garden. It is very effective for mass ing in landscape work, or for planting in front of the taller shrubs.' It may be grown singly on the lawn, or in beds or borders. It is sometimes grown a an ornamental hedge, where a hedge is not needed for defense. The foliage is an attractive dark glossy green and so the plant . is really beautiful even when Jiot In flower. A row might be set from 2 to 3 feet apart, ana so wouia not oe so very expensive if some of the cheaper sorts were chosen. Just now, the peony is very popular as a cut flower. If cut when the bud is about ready to unfold and placed in water in a cool place, the blooms will last several days and be finer than those which mature on a busn which is exposed to the full heat of the sun. If large fine blooms are waited, it Is best to disbud. One stem will not produce more than one fine flower, and the extra buds simvly d-eflect and waste the energy of the stem. The central bud is the largest, and should remain, all the others should be pinched off as soon as they are large enough to be gotten hold of easily. The time to order peonies is during the blooming season, and it is best, if 'possible, to visit the nurseries where they are grown and see- the different varieties in flower. The season of bloom usually begins here with us abo-ut the middle of May. W o have peony gardens in the vicinity of Portland, where practically an vari eties which do well here may be seen In fact, large shipments are' sent to eastern states from Oregon. They may also be had cheaper direct from our local nurseries than when pur chased in the east through a catalogue. Planting time is m the fall, ine peony starts growth very early in the spring and so is cruelly set back by being disturbed at that time. One year plants are those which have grown a full year since being divided; if given good .care they may bloom the following spring; the two-year-old roots are, of course, better, wln-ie three-vear-old roots are really large clumps which will produce results in the way of bloom immediately. T.I older the plant the higher the price, of course. The quality of the root must be taken into consideration also. The vision, so it takes years to acquire I number of eyes to a plant is no indi cation of its excellence; a weak root may show from five to ten eyes and still not flower for a season or so. A strong root with one piunvp eye is better than a spindlins specimen, no matter how many eyes it has. The cultural directions for the peony are very simple. Soil which would be good for a general vegetable garden is suitable. It should not be too heavy with clay, nor too light with sand, for the peony is of quick, robust growth and so demands a soil that 3 fairly retentive of moisture. In vey fertile soil it is not necessary to use manure. In preparing the beds ttie manure should be made as fine as possible and thoroughly mixed with the earth. If manure comes in con tact with the stems is may cause rot ting. The roots should be set so that the upper eyes are from two to three inches beneath the surface of the soil and would need to be placed from 2 to 4 feet apart, according to the amount of space at hand. Copious watering iB excellent in order to pro mote Uie growth of 'buds after they develop, but it should be confined to the soil and not to the foliage, us moisture on tne buds will often de stroy them. Failure to bloom Js often due to Improper methods of t'utting the bloom the season before always leave at least two leaf stems on the stalk so that there, will be enough foliage to develop .the eyes under ground for the next season's growth Do not remove the foliage. until the late fall; there may be no bloom even on old plants if this is done. Too deep planting is also sometimes tho cause of failure to bloom, or a late frost may have killed the buds. If healthy plants are secured to start with, there will be little trouble from disease or insects. Peonies should not be set in soil where they have grown rfore. Choose a new location when setting them out. A wet. backward spring sometimes causes foliage and buds to rot, but this could not be called disease. The choice of named varieties would be entirely a matter of personal pref erence. The list ef good colors and forms Is very large, so. that In an article of this length, it would be Im possible to discuss particular vari eties. john Randolph, akked him not to I Kill the Policeman.
