1t seems to be pity that nobody ca
see that there are oceans Of money" il
fruit drying. There are thousands 6
bushels OF plums and pears that 60 t
waste every season simply for the wan
OF little well-directed enterprise in el
tablishing means for its preservation
1t is just such undeveloped resource
that will i'll the course oil time be tn
means OF securing competence TO
many an enterprising man who has ha
his eye-testh cut by the close competition
OF denser populated communities.

Quite a number Of our local Republi
can statesman lett Tuesday ior Tacoma
with plethoric grip-sacks, 10 attend tn
Territorial Convention. Whether thcs
handy recepticals contained a change o
linen, supply OF platform timber, or tn
mysterious flask from which modern in
SEPARATION is sometimes drawn, it is i'm
possible precisely to determine; bu
from the smiling countenances and joy
GUS gait Of our local delegation, the,
seemed to depart with an impression
that it would be no more difficult task t,
rum" the Territorial than the Count,
Convention. 1t was quite a contrast t,
their appearance when they returned.
One night last week, the variety stor
OF NJ. j. S. Brewer, was entered by
rear window, and the inside compart
rnent OF the cash-box carried off, con
tanning $29 IS in money and watch
valued at about $50. The box was foun,
in the back room OF the store, the wiz
dow raised and the inside door unlocked
indicating very clearly just the name

Northern Pacific Express money drawer
in the same room, but he was doubles
one who acknowledges the propriety c

safe to prediet, however, that if he pur
sues his noctional enterprise far enough
he will, in the course OF time, carry ava
more than he really wants.
A large scow, containing about 10
head OF cows and calves was towed t
this place last Sunday and moored nea
the Second street wharf, when the wor

began, while a host of spectators Assem-
bled to witness the unusual event. TIL
cattle came from British Columbia, an
were owned by Mr.. John Adair. OF Az
toria, which place is their final destins
ton. The scow was towed up by tn
steamer Cello, and the cattle were nee
essarily several days on the way over,
portion of the time being without water
This was deprivation that would com

experience does not suggest some bette
means OF transportation, should the oil
order OF things be reversed and tn
cattle trade continue to flow from, ir
stead of to, the British Possessions.
DR.. Riley has shown us a curiosity i
the shape of the shin bone OF a two
year colt. The animal was owned b
Mr.. George Shannon. About two month
ago the colts leg was broken and tn
next day carefully set by the docto,
, The limb was put in a sling and on tn
twenty-second day the fractured ends {
the bone had firmly adhered. About thi
time the colt is thought to have con
tracted disease resembling inflamatio
Of the bowels. from which it died. O
being removed, the fractured bone wa
found to be in a sound and healthy cor
dition, and had the horse lived the linn
would doubtless have rendered efi1cier
service till old age. The main point i
the case is that it disproves the theor
of professional farr iers and veterinar
surgeons that the fractured bone of
horse cannot be made whole again b
any process known to the art. On &C
count OF this widespread belief, many
valuable animal has been sacrificed.
