"I'm with a carnival alright, but at that 1 aiu a lady,” was the retort that accompanied a stiff slap in the face of a young Portland lad in a local confectionary Sunday evening in the presence of a “house-full" of patrons of the establishment. The one who delivered the “biff'’ was a young woman attache of the carnival company, according to iter own admissions. The Portland youngster was only making ;.n effort to flirt with the strange young woman but in the future lie will “look before he leaps.” Clyde Springer, aged nineteen years, of St. Marys, was fatally injured when the motorcycle on which he and another young man were riding, collided with a horse and buggy driven hy George Rapp. The cause of the accident is thus far unexplained. One ot the cart shafts entered Springer's chest under the left arm and just above the heart and took a course toward his neck. A section of broken rib was found carrier six or seven inches into the wound. The exact depth of the wound could not be ascertained. Action of the left lung is suspended. An invention that may bring about a revolution in hydroplane construction is a combined motorboat and glider that has recently been patented after having been subjected to pre liminary trials. When run at high speed, the hull of this craft lifts out of tiie water and is suported by a system of waler planes that act on the water in the same fashion that the wings of an aeroplane act on the air while at low speed or with the craft at rest.the planes are submerged and buoyancy is supplied by the hull as in an ordinary boat. Both the flying boat and the ordinary hydroplane have hulls so shaped that they drive up out »>l the water and skim Hie surface when driven at. high speed, but a craft that glides on planes placed under and at the sides of the hull Is something decidedly new. Several views of the hydroplane appear in the July Popular Mechanics Magazine. * the July Woman's Home Companion Frank A. Waugh, the well known horticulturist, writes a practical article entitled "The Queen of the Garden,” in which he tells how to grow roses. Os the varieties of roses he says; "The list ot varieties of roses is Interminbide. It would be esy from the catalogues to make up a collection of two lluiusaml varieties. Os course no one wants so many as that. There are n few beautiful sorts which everyone desires Io grow and most of which are approved by years of success. Tiie best of all the white roses is undoubtedly Frau Karl Druschkl it Is thrifty hardy uud bears grand large semi-dou-ble blossoms. Next to this the best white rose is probably Mme. I’lanticr. Among pink roses we may place Killsi'll) Augusta Victoria at tint head, followed by Maymi (T)urtu, Mme, Caroline Teslroul, Mrs. Joint Laing. Paul Ncyrott. and President rnnmt. The favorite red rose Is undoubtedly Gen ernl J.o i|ueitilnot, but other good red sorts are Gruss an Tepllti.-, Alfred ('"I ou l '. Any de Die.bach, and hjllaruey
