Many h ere regarded the appoint ments an significant, slnro rumors linvo been current that tlcncrnl Vc lasro Is deeply Involved In a military plot against General Hucrta. Vclas co has not yet recovered from hla wounds and his friends say ho Is In no condition to assume command In the field. After his return to tho capital Ve- lasco Is reported to have reproached Hucrta for his failure to reinforce him at Torreon. 'The criticism of his chief was regarded br his friends as foolhardy and surprise was mani fested that Vclasco was not Im prisoned. Mexican newspaper men hero tiavc been listed at the capital as traitor. In a semi-official document sent from Mexico City all those who remained after tho occupation arc accused ot "selling their pens to Fletcher, the invader." An Intimation Is made that tho federal government will deal drastically with them when It regains control of Vera Cruz. Tho reply of the newspaper men was the Issuo last night of a now paper named the "Voico of tho Peo ple" which devotes its cntlro first Issuo to tho advocacy ot the constitu tionalist movement and denunciation of General Iluvrtn.

COLORADO'S TP 1113 labor war in Colorado ninv bo summed up in tin single, terse and vigorous sentence of General Sher man on the subject ot war, wherein that distinguished authority declared the same to be hell. ITp to the present time tho Miners' union has spent over a million dollars in its war against the coal operators; the operators have put two and a half millions into tional loss ot twelve millions, state of Colorado, with its and its military expenditures, million. At the very lowest and fifteen millions of dollars have been saeriticed to a useless war that should have As is usual in such conflicts, both sides are at lault. A little yielding on each side would have prevented the whole conflict and saved this awful sacrifice of life and money. The repeated moutiiings of young Mr. Rockefeller to the effect that he is waging a war for the inalienable rights of the American laborer, is as cymbal, m tne lace ot the Kocketeller millions built upon the bones of American labor; the Rockefeller importation of foreign hordes to supplant American labor; the grafting company stores and the Rockefeller thugs and gunmen employed to tyrranize and bully American labor. How ever virtuous and high sounding young Mr. Rockefeller's preachings, it will not serve to cjoak the wolfish ravisher it seeks to mask. Rose Mildew (Ily Ocorgo Masseo ot National Hofo Society.) Jtoso mildew is undoubtedly tho most destructive and, at tho same time, the most prevalent disease with which tho grower of roses has to con tend. Llko most other parasitic fungi it Is sporadic In its appear ance: during certain seasons It as sumes tho proportions of an epidemic, whereas on other occasions 't does but little Injury, but It is never en tirely absent. Tho waves of serious disease arc mainly duo to neglect in not fighting the pest when present in the smallest quantity, which means that it is struggling against difficul ties, and' could much more easily be overcome. The reason why mildow is much more prevalent during some seasons than others depends almost entirely on the host plant, and not on tho fungus, which Is always present In sufficient quantity to set up an epi demic If conditions arc favorable Broadly speaking, "soft" follago fav ors the disease, whereas "hard" fol iage cannot bo so readily Infected. This statement Is not only true so far as relates to foliage affected by weather conditions, but also as to tho relatively Hard or soft foliage and shoots of dlffccnt kinds of roses. The microscopic structure of tho leaf of tho "Crimson Itnmblcr" Indicates that It could readily bo Infected, and this proves to be tho caso with this variety. The greater susceptibility of roses, and of plants in general, to disease when grown under glass, than when the same kind of plant is grown In the open, depends almost entirely on the relatively "softness" of the foliage and shoots. Knrly morning ventilation, which Is too frequently neglected, Is tho best cor rective for this condition of things. A damp, warm, muggy season causes tho follago of plants growing In the open to remain "soft" and highly susceptible to disease. The reason of this Is tho roots ara con stantly taking up water which can not escape from tho leaves on nccount of tho amount of moisture present in tho air, consequently the cells of tlm leaf are always distended with wat ery celt sap, a condition of things which favors, in tho first Instanco, the rapid germination of fungus spores that alight on tho surfaco ot the leaves, and secondly, tho easy cntrauco of the germ-tubes of such spores Into the Interior of tho leaves An exceptionally rainy season Is unfavorable for tho development of mildow and other fungus diseases, becauso rain washes tho spores to tho ground almost as fast as they are produced, also these spores that da alight on tho leaves' aro freqently washed off before they havo time to gormlnato and enter tho tlE3ucx of tho leaf, Another factor of Import ance Is tho comparative absence of Insects which play an important part In conveying spores of fungi from Infected to healthy buses. Mildew Is present throughout tho scfthon every year In greater or less abiiudanco, but as a rule thoro aro two marked waves of tho disease; one in the spring soon after tho fol iage Is full grown. The second wave appears noon after midsummer, nnd attacks tho leaves and shoots of tho new growth, During an avorago season tho spring wave of dlscaso Is usually of a mild churacter, and apt to bo over, looked, or, at ull events, neglected. This neglect, however, may lead to terlous results for tho scattered patches of mildew furnish tlm spores llutt Infect tho flower ttiids and at a later slant t "l thu second wavo of disease, which Is iiiotlly uinllned to thu new growth Thu while kUiiliiiur fruit I wloiiu proilutttd dtirliiK the first wave of In fN'llna In Hi" Hiring Ms Him wood f LABOR WAR the fight, and suffered an addi and, added to this sum, the extra session of the legislature will run the total up another estimate, seventy-live lives been settled by arbitration. sounding brass and tinkling and Its Cure the previous season cannot be In fected, nnd tho winter fruit Is only produced on tho mlhtcw growing on tho shoots. For this reason the late summer wave of Infection Is most dangerous, inasmuch as It furnishes tho fungus fruit that stnrts the dis caso tho following season. As prev iously stated, tho winter fruit ap pears on the white cottony tufts of mycelium growing on tho young wood, rarely on tho fruit, never on tho leaves. I'revrnllvo S frit u ret (1) Cleanliness. As will have been pathered from tho preceding accounting, the extension of mildew depends on summer spores produced on tho leaves being conveyed by wind and other agents to other healthy leaves. This risk is met by spraying, which will be dealt with In the next paragraph; on the other hand, the appearance ot mildew dur ing tho following season depends en tirely on tho presence of winter spores that aro formed on tho whlto patches ot mcccllum growing on tho wood, and sometimes also on th fruit. It Is therefore ot tho utmost Importance that every patch of myce Hum present on the wood and fruit bo carefully scraped off and burned This work should bo done ns early In tho season as possible, otherwise so mo of tho winter spores may fall to tho ground, where they will sur vive tho winter and possibly prove a nuisance the following spring. (2) Spraying. A solution ot po tassium sulphide, popularly known as "llvor and sulphur" ono ounco dis solved In five gallons ot rain water Is an excellent fungicide against ml), dew. If a tablo spoonful of liquid gluo Is added, tho funglcldo adheres much longer to tho follago. If tho whites of two eggs Instead ot tho glue, tho adhesiveness Is still great er It la Important to remember that, although liver ot sulphur will actually kill roso mildew, Its primary use Is that of a preventive against Infoctlon, by destroying spores on tho fungus that alight on the follago, henco It should bo applied en tho earliest suggestion of tho presence of mildew. Later In tho season when tho second wave of mildow appears, a somewhat stronger solution of tho fungicide may often bo used to ad vantage, moro especially during a dry, sunny season when tho follago is fairly hard. (Sco nolo.) A funglcldo cannot bo applied ef fectively by using an ordinary sy ringe. A proper sprayer Hhould bo used. Tho finer tho spray tho bet tor It adheres to tho follago. It the spray Is too coarso tho particles run together to form drops largo enough to run off tho follago. Tho samo re suit follows spraying too much liquid on to a bush, however flno tho fcpray may bo. (No to.) Atomic sulphur, lecom monded by Professor O'Oara, is bet ter for spraying and can bo gotten at tho local fruit associations.

Tho grief-stricken father not ho thought himself of a very rich man who was ory old, and who had given largo sums for parks which lioro tho inline of the donor. "Sure l," said tho father, -'ho will help; how thoughtless in me not to have called first on him." TJuv rich-jiiniu when he .heard thidhulLcouhl-not-rtwI-cnjiilv-it" I felt father's story, nl.-o expressed great regret, nnd a-ked I ho father to ray with him. for the safe delivery of the child. When they iinne from their knees the rich man enihraeed the father and told htm to he hopeful and pray tinccningly and Ood would surely nnswer hit prayers, if it was Hit will that the child should he re stored to tho parent'. The father de parted in a happy frame of mind, for lie believed the rich man intended to lie God's instrument and ranoui hit dear child. As the days passed the father prayed with high hopes, but when thu day for the ransom drew near inu ricu loan came uoi, ami ine parents became mn.t anxious; the mother wept piteotisly. And then it was known among the workers and the poor of tho city, that the ran-oni had not heen ob tained, mid they consulted among eacn outer and went to the miner and mother nnd said to them: "As we love (Mir own children, ns they are what we live for, we will save yours, if it takes all wo have." And thev gathersd their savings to gether, some borrowing from the iitiirer, nnd thus the whole sum de manded was collected, nnd they went to the father's house and gave it him with gladness on their faces and joy in their hearts. And tho father fell on his kuces nnd thanked Hod for his gooilucts ia rending' these friends to help him, and asked (!"d o for- give him for not trusting Him to re store his chdd, mid for doubting III intentions to do so, nnd ho promised (loil to servo Itiui with greatest de votion for the remainder of his life. He took the money and departed in hntc, for the ransom day was near, and the dixlam-e was great. On the journey the father was eouliiiually giving thanks to Ood for his good ness und pl'dginf his life to (JodV service. Arriving .it tho appointed place, the father peiceived n young man of uohh) countenance, and of him ho nski'd if lie knew of tho whereabouts of a certain hrigund'or robber vvio held ii child for ransom. The young man miMvercd Hint ho was holding the child for tho ransom nnd asked; "Aro you her father?"
