No changes OF consequences were re-
ported in the local jobbing trade yester-
day. A car load of Yakima melons came
In and more are expected today.
]. j. Bogardus, Of the firm Of Liily,
Bogardus GO, returned yesterday from n
trip TO the La Conner fats aud reports
that the farmers viii begin cutting oats
next week. The crop is good. - is also
the bay crop The farmers will probably
BE- greatly hampered for grain SACKS when
threshing begins. as there Is scarcity Of
them in the market. Those who made
contracts and arranged to pay cash rot
I'll the sacks they wanted at low figures,
but dealers would not take the chances Of
expending large amounts in buying sacks
without knowing where they were going
70 sell them for cash. The result Is that
there are not enough 10 be had now at
any price and those who can not pay cash
are likely 10 be cinched.
The run Of salmon continues very light,
yesterdays catch not exceeding 500
pounds. The little sloop Kitty brought
In 1000 pounds OF haiibut and loo
pounds Of black cod from the fishing
bank In the Straits. Another wholesale
FISH market Is being opened up on the
Merchants wharf.

AUNT JEMIMA's QUILT.


Nev England Magazine
A miracle Of cleaning dyes
Blue, scarlet, buR and green;
Oh, ne'er before by mortal eyes
Such gorgeous hues were seen
So grandly was It's plan designedi
so GaaBingly twas built,
The whole proclaimed master mind
My Aunt Jemimas quilt
Each friendly household fur and wide
Contributed It's share;
II Ghronicled the country side
In Colors quaint aud rare,
From bellies and brides came rich hrOCaue
lnwrought with threads OF gilt;
Zen buxOm widows lent their alu
To Aunt Jemimas quit
No tapestry from days OF yore,
No web from Orient loom,
But palGd IN beRuteous tlntS before
This strange expanse Of blooln.
Here glitIering stlrs aud comets shone,
Der flowers that mover wilt;
Here Auttesed birds from worlds unknown,
On Aunt Jemlma's quilt
oh, merry was tho quilting bee,
When this great quilt was done;
Tho raiten rang with maiden Stee'
And hearts were lost md won.
Ne'Gr did throng OF Drawer men
In war clash hilt 10 hllt
Than sought the smiles oil beauty then
Round Aunt lemlma's quilt
This work Of art my aunt esteemed
Tho glory oil the aye;
No poets eyes have ever beRmed
More proudly DER his page
We're other quilt TO this compared
Her nose would upward tilt
Such impudence was seldom dared
Ger Aunt Jemina's quilt
Her dear old hands have gone to dust,
That once were 1.-THE and light;
Her needles keen are thick with rust
That flashed so nimbty bright
And hero II lies by her behest,,
stained with the tears We split,
Safe folded IN this cedar chest
Ny Aunt Jemlma's guilt,
