MAYOR WEIR TO THE PUBLIC Will Not Be Responsible for Acts of Lin- colu's Police Force, NEBRASKA FARMERS NOT DISCOURAGED Pleasant Weather of Yesterday Taken Ad- vantage of to Survey the Crop Situ- ation—Work Will Now Be Rapldiy Pushed. Laxcory, Neb., May 22.—[Special 1o Tur Bre.j—In view of the recent decision of Judge Tibbetts inthe police case, Mayor ‘Weir yesterday issued the following pro matior “The courts having deprived me, under the law, of all practical control of the police force I cannot, in justico to mysell, assumo any responsibility for the work of the resent force. Nearly all its membvers hav- tg been appointed without my consent and mganst my emphatic protest’it would be a mero farce for mo to attempt to control or direct their, actions. I trust that they will do their duty in_a satisfactory manner and that a fair minded public “will place the credit or censure, as thu caso may be, with tho authoritics who contiol them. At the last meeting of the city conncil an ordinance wus passed providigg for tho clection of a president of the council, and defining the manner in which the president shall bo elected. As it was original drafted, the ordinance provided t “tho mayor and city council shall elect,” ete., but before the ordinance was passed the words “the mayor” were stricken out. Tho object of the amendment was to prevent the mayor from voling upon the election of o vresident in case of o tie. Mayor Weir today announces that he will "veto the ordinance, for the roason that the statutes provide that the mayor shull have a casting vote upon nll guestions upon which the councilmen are equaily divided. The mayor mssorts that the council cau pass no ordinance changing tho provisions of tho statutes, Atv a meeting of the Board of Education Fridav night the committeo on sites and buildiogs was instructed to call n special ®lection at once to vote upcn a proposition to 4asue bonds to the amount of §100,000 for tho erection of a high school building. The ne- cessity for a building to accommodate tho High scheol has beem apparent for a number of years, but the rapid _growth of the city schools and the necessity of providing new ward school buildings have combined to pre wvent the erection of a central high school building. It is believed that the proposition will carry ns tho petition contained 1,0¢ names, several hundred moro than the requisite majority uccessary to carry the election.

Lasv week another sore throat asserted itself, and, remembering the efficacy of his first treatment, he took in the bottic to be filled again.

It 18 not tho fault of the flowers nor the “tra-la,”” which is usually at the end of spring the way that Mr. Gilbert would have it. Spring itself is the only one to blame for the flowers not blooming. Had the beams of Ola Sol been more refulgent and had the sun laid & warmer touch upon the cheek of Mother Earth the flowers and this season’s buds would have weeks ugo mado their debut in fragrant talor made costumo and a box coat in the numerous front yards, beautiful lawns and little ro- mantic parks. But no, the tender buds have been compelled to remain in the box coats in the hot-hoase under the caro and cultivation of their chaperon, A few that were out last season and attracted so much attention on acconnt of their bighly cultured uchievements will agaiu come out in tho same circle with the buds as soon as their chaperon of the green house can trust them to the care of Jupiter Pluvius. w Old *Jup” has been rather naughty this season and has held everything back, but within a fortnight you will see many buds of opening tulips. Whon they do finally a and spread their showy potals in the sun they are tho heralds of carly summer, Those who are fond of flowers and bave s taste for their cultivation will not begrudgo the care they rcquire, and yet a bed of early tulips means more labor than a bed of pan- sies. When the Tullps Bloom, Lato in the fall, when the Jast hardy an- nual has drooped it head and succumbea to the autumn frosts, the tulip bed must bo carcfully dug and prepared for the dry, brown bulbs that bave been hidden in the cellar during the summer. The soil must be judiciously enriched for tne nourishment of the bulbs Wwhich lie quiet until the first warm days of early spring. When the flowers ap- pear, if they are protected from the sun by a hight canvas, the period of bloom will cou- tinue three or four weeks. The colors are generally bottor, however, 1f not shaded at all, though in this case the bloom is soon over. Sometimes a single day’s hot sun will so0n spoil them, though they ordinurily last from ten days to two wecks. As soon as tho stem turns _yellow and tho leaves begin to dry, they should be put in a cool, dry place in paper bugs, ready for planting out again next October. Tho tulip bed in your garden serves a double purpose, for now it is ready to bs worked over for replanting and you may fill with cannas, coleus and other foliage piants or devote it to the growth of blooming plants, goranium, fuschia, fever few, begouin, heliotrope and ever-blooming roses of the tea variety. by or through any of the green bouses florist will tell you that the lovers of flowers are just now thinking about the flower gardens and tho general beautificu- tion of their plat of ground, be it smali or large. and tn Swoet Peas. Tue cultivation of sweet poas with thoir delicious perfume has within the last few vears enjoyed awide popularity. They are the most satisfactory piants an amateur cau grow, and aro_found in_every color but y low, and this it1s now the aim of the florist 1o produce. “Wo have had the striped pansies,” re- marked a Dodge street flosist to a Bre rep- resentative, “and now the yellow sweet peas and blue roses will probably come some day. Every cne who expacts to huve a row of sweet pew climbers this summer has already planted the seeds so that blossoms may be picked all summer. Seeds planted in April will bloom about the last of June. This is the average period of fruition, aithough the plant bas been known to blossom forty-two days afier the seed was sown. When you plant your peas plant them aeep. When the Iittle ‘shoots aro one anda one-half inches above ground mulch thom well and bring the carth up close about the roots. One of my foremen at_the Twenty-fourth street green house says this is one of the surest ways of securing good colored, profusely blooming plants, Another importaut point to consider is strong busbing. This means brush at least seven feet high. Sweet peas require more water than almost any otuer tlowor thut is grown in the garden, and dur- ing the dry season they must be rogularly and freely wet. Ons other thing, after your plant is in bloom, pick the blossoms every day if vou wish your flowers to last, aud suc- ritice the pods as fast us they come.

She fills it full with run- ning, climbiog, spreading bloom, and luxu ates in the bright coloring just outside her casement. *There is one point, however, that cannot have failed the uotice of those who have tried cultivating a window garden, No matter how beau'iful the boxes are in June, or how well thoy appear in July, ubout August they begin'to grow yellow and the blossoms dry up. Thoy are faithfully wat ered and carefully frecd from weeds, but somehow the most watchful attention will not prevent those plants from looking as if @ miniature cyclone had blasted their growth, What is the trouble!
