to, if not superior. Idaho has twenty
two different varieties of apples. and
Washington something like thirty.
In dried fruits If Idaho goes ahead Of
Washington at all it win be on account
of the higher altitude at which the
fruits are grown 1t is not at all
likely, however, that Idaho will be
first in the aggregate, and as for
Oregon, she will have a great deal
to do to beat the Washington exhibit
One reason for Oregon's good exhibit
is the fact that The display is the re
suit of numerous county and state
affairs. Idaho seems to have her
whole fruit crop at the Fair. If any
fault can he found with the Washing
ton fruit exhibit, 1t must be on account
of the greater neatness displayed by
the other states, and the greater care
with which the fruits have been select
ed. This, however, is the fault Of the
commissioners. 1t is the fault of the
growers. A great competition will
take place when the spring fruits come
10. A word in time will be of value
to Washington fruit growers. The
Worlds Fair is something more than
a county or state fair. States are in
competition here, not counties. Only
the very best should be selected, and
the greatest care should be exercised
in regard to getting it to the fair in
good condition. One thing that is
noticeable IN the Washington exhibit
is the fact that the jars have not in
many cases been properly labeled
everything has fruit labels, whether
it be peaches, potatoes, or peas.

Worlds Fair Correspondence.

IDAHo STATE BUILDING. Jackson
Park, June oath, 1893.-The follow
ing from a recent issue of the Seattle
Post-Intelligencer is the opinion Of a
rival of Idaho fruit at the Worlds
Fair:
"Much adverse criticism has been
lavished upon the display Of fruit
made by the state of Washington,
and in some respects it may be deserv.
ed. On the whole, however, it is too
early in the season to prophesy. Much
Of the criticism is the result Of q feel
ing that Idaho is ahead in the compe-
tition for prizes, and that Washington
is somehow in the rear of the process
sion. At the present writing there is
absolutely no ground for such fear
Idaho has truly made a magnificent
exhibition. She has, in fact, surpris-
ed everyone, not less from the char
acter as the variety of her fruits. 1t
has been well chosen, we'll packed,
and the jars are conspicuous for their
handsome appearance. The Washing
ton section adjoIns that of Idaho. Ii
is larger than Idaho's, and more fruit
has been placed on exhibition than
either Oregon or Idaho. Counting
out California with its oranges and
lemons, interest seems to be conferred
around the three states mentioned,
Idaho people are loudly Boosting that
they are in the lead in every line, and
Colonel Babcock, of Arkansas. who
judged the fruit ten days after it was
on the tables, is considerably chagrin-
ed over the inference that he has been
talking too freely. As a matter of
fact opinion seems to be divided as to
which of the three states has the best
exhibit In pears the '.Idaho pear
is a variety which VIC have not, but
in BartIetts Washington seems to be
ahead in regard to size and flavor In
apples the Idaho folks are making
great boasts Of Blue Pearmains, but
for variety and sweetness Washington
and Oregon seem to be both ahead of
Idaho. Washington Strawberries are
just now the marvel of everybody
not more for their remarkable size as
for their favor Oregon comes close
in this respect, and Idaho, while it has
a good exhibit, is not in anyway up
to either. Peaches and watermelons
are claimed by the Idaho people, but
the Washington and Oregon officials
are quite confident of the success of
their respective exhibits. In grapes
also Washington is ahead of Idaho,
while her pruues are certainly equal

The shipments of gold to Europe
are small in comparison with the
freights paid to foreign ocean vessels
combined with remittances made by
foreigners in Ibis country to their
families in other countries and the
amounts taken out BY American tour

A slrll.lnr Prnsnniimnnl.

Il is curious how future events are oc-
casionally prefgured by some anticipa-
tory token which, unlike presentiments
and premonitory dreams, makes perhaps
no impression at the time ON those whom
they concern.
Here is a striking example. One Of
Charles Dickens sons, from some childish
oddity of expression in his large, Won
denng eyes. was given by his father the
very unique sobriquet of the Ocean
Specter, - by which he was always called.
The great novelist never knew of the
weird significance his playfully bestowed
appellation was to bear, for he himself
had been nearly two years in his grave
at the time his little ocean Specter.r -
then a lieutenant in the royal navy, died
and was buried at sea.-London Tit-Bits.

to have become entirely bald. One day
Alphonse met him witha beaming coun-
tenance and cried gayly: "What do you
think, Julesl l have been buying a
