SAN FRANCISCO MARKETS.


SAN FRANCISCO. June 3o.-The fruit market
was not as satisfactory this morning as it might
have been. Prices for almost all kinds were
weak and lower in tendency. The demand for
cherries was very light, and although supplies
were moderate prices were weak. Figs are also
in oversupply, and sell slowly. Raspberries
and Strawberries are almost neglected, and
blackberries also rather dull. Citrus fruits are
without any Improvement The dried fruit
market continues quiet, but Eastern orders are
expected to bring about considerable activity.
The vegetable markets are literally supplied
with all kinds of summer vegetables, and most
OF the varieties are lower in values. Summer
squash and tomatoes are very plentiful. Green
corn is coming to hand freely, but strictly
choice commands top quotations. Onions were
dull and weak and the market overstocked with
all kinds. New potatoes continue in good de-
mand, and are firm at quotations.

REV. DIR. BRIGGS
OPINION.

The controversy arising from ''the higher
criticism" of Rev. DR.. Briggs who has
been tried for heresy, will change the
complexion of the Interchangeable creed
In the very nature of things every human
device is prone to change. Pray, why
should medicine be the exception to the
ruler The Histogenetio system is the
newest change and is head and shoulders
above the Old and efete systems" Have
you progressed mentally sufficiently to
appreciate . fact?

MY Dear Doctor-This day l come to
you in an importan. matter and request
you to attend to 1t at once. My grand
daughter aged nine years had ia grippe \
few months ago and although recovered,
is very weak. exceedingly nervous and has
slight attacks OF ST. Vitus' dance. We are
very much worried about it. She can
hardly cut meat ut the table, her hands
and fingers tremble IN trying to button her
shoes. etc. 1t IS impossible for her to go
to Seattle and would like to know if you
could treat her after the mort above des-
cription. She is also very fond of playing
the piano and likes to read and to learn.
Every time she plays now q few minutes
only or reads. she is utterly exhausted and
must quit. Now what shall We do about
that7 Expecting answer by return mail,
Yours truly,
PAUL STROBACH.

The Clever Dog.

A large. healthy bulldog was sitting to-
tally unaware of the dog catcher's wagon,
which came rafting down the street at
that moment. Suddenly the fatal lariat
shot out, but the dog lodged it and made
bee line for the man who handled it.
Then ensued an exciting chase, which
was much enjoyed by the populace in the
vicinity.
The dog catcher is never very popular
with people in general. In this instance
he succeeded in clambering into his
wagon minus his coattails.
A skirrnish then ensued, which ended
in the temporary triumph OF the dog,
who retired to repose on his laurels. The
dog catcher came back from ignomini
GUS flight few minutes later, however
and human ingenuity soon triumphed
over brute courage. The dog was lassoed
and taken to the pound with other un-
fortunates.
But here the innate sense of justice in
man steps in to even up things. Several
admiring citizens had viewed the &C
lions of the dog, and when he was cart
ed away they took up a subscription
sent out to the pound, ransomed the ami
NAL and provided him with a home.
It is little comedy like this that
makes life seem worth living even tC
the most dissatisfied individual. Chi.

skil1fur Canine Equestrianism.

There's an unrivaled exhibition Of
canine equestrianism to be seen on the
streets Of Chicago almost any day,
which has fully as much OF even more
real merit about it than one VIII see IN
similar displays that are maze IN any OF
the greatest shows on earth. The
performer is an exceptionally lntelE-
gent water spaniel, and he is rider OF
skill. His act consists, in word, OF
riding delivery wagon morse whose
driver usually enforces pell nell gait.
The spaniel sits his mount with his
hind feet on the horses collar, or where
the collar would come, and MS front
feet, one ahead of the other, on the mar
row ridge of the horses neck, his claws
clutched in the name. The faster the
horse goes the better the dog seems to
like 1t, judging from his many parks
and lively way in which he wags his
tail. The sudden rounding OF corner
never catches the plucky little animal
Off his guard, but at such times ne Will
"curve in" with apparently the intelli-
gence of the most accomplished circus
rider, and so never loses his balance.
He has fallen but once in the two years
that his owner says he has been riding,
and that was when the horse came near
being killed BY cable car.
The horse never goes SO well as when
carrying the dog, and that of course
means that horse and dog are warm
friends. Woe to the person or animal
who bothefs either of them when the
other is around, for between the kicking
Of the horse and the biting of the dog
the two old chums make it exceedingly
unpleasant for intruders. Chicago Trib-

you come. This morning she had ter
rible cold, and her lungs are not strong,
you know.
Mr.. Nicefello-My goodness! Is she
sick?
Matron-No, but she's had narrow
escape. Now these long drawn out
good nights have got to stop.
Mr.. Nicefello-Indeedt they must, my
dear madam. I'll go right out for a
clergyman.-New York Weekly.

F1CR REMEMBRANCE.

1t would be sweet to think when we are old
OF all the pleasant days that came to pass;
That here we took the berries from the grass,
There charmed the bees with pans, and smoke
unrolled,
And spread the melon nets when nights were
cold,
Or pulled the bloodroot in the underbrush,
And marked the ringing of the tawny thrush.
While all the west was broken, burning gold.
And SO bind with rhymes these memories,
As girls press pansies in the poets leaves
And find them afterward with sweet sur
prise;
Or treasure petals mingled with perfume,
Losing them in the days when April grieves;
A subtle summer in the rainy room.
Duncan Campbell Scott in Scribner's.
