olive industry of California may be said to

Pendonter, ManzaniIlo, Rubra, Maria,

feet apart, and set at an angle; how
to deal With PESTS has been the subject OF
much anxious inquiry; the art OF extract

PICKLED OLIVES.

The New York Sun says that New York
will consume 10000 barrels of California
picked olives every year If they are the
kind OF olives which were grown at San
Diego two hundred years ago by the Spanish
priests. THE CALL is not quite sure that
the parties raised any olives at San Diego
as long ago as the end Of the seventeenth
century, hut hundred years later, in tile
days of Junpero Sierra, they certainly did
cultivate the fruit. and with their customary
hospitality shared it with their visitors.
Whether it is as good fruit as San Diego now
raises is perhaps question.
Our kind friend of the Sun does not need
TO be Informed that fruit, like everything
else. improves with cultivation. 1t is doubt
ful whether any Of the fruits of the last
century would commend themselves TO his
esthetic palate or whether he could stomach
the olive oil which, poured on bread, was
so heartily relished by Napoleon during his
campaign in Italy. Public taste grows
more refined in each generation, and those
who purvey TO its wants have to improve
! their products 10 hold their markets. Mis-
! sion wine, which rasps the gullet ard exas-
| perates The kdneys, was good enough for
| the comrades Of Portola, and so it may be

ZONE TRAVELLING.

The success Of the zone system OF
fares for railway journeys has now
attained such success in Hungary that
it is not improbable the example will
be followedi in other countries where the
State owns the roads. With an increase OF
travel almost five times what it was three
or four years ago the receipts have been
trebled in Hungary. and the working ex-
penses have been reduced considerably.
Starting from any point within a zone the
traveller has but one uniform fare to pay In
order TO reach any point within that zone;
if lie crosses it into another he has to pay
the uniform charge for two zones, and so on
until lie reaches the outermost. But as the
distance increases the rate is proportion
ately reduced. so that the longest journey to
the confines Of Hungary is at a very low
fare indeed.
Like all other parts Of the Austro-Hunga-
RAN empire Hungary has Il great mixture
Of races, some Of whom love each other lit
tie, and there is good deal Of poverty. The
zone tariff among such a population has
worked wonders when the number Of tray-
elers has Increased from six millions to
tweniy-eight mill ons. and the receipts from
less than ten million gulden TO over twenty
eight million gulden. In the very first year
the number of travellers was almost trebled
Undoubtedly in the wake Of passenger traf-
lie comes an extension of bus mess relations.
Tie more people see and know Of each 9th

AS Bagshot has pointed out about
China i. is probably isolation during long
centuries that has stereotyped and arrested
civilization in China. The empire was de-
MED the stimulus of comparison and compe-
tition, and fell into a ethargy Of sell-c0n-
tentment and habit out of which it is diff
cult to arouse it. The effect of the zone
tariff may in time have modifying effect
on the race antipathies of Austria-Hungary,
just as railways in India are breaking down
the barriers # caste. But at least the con-
veuieBce and commercial profit Of zone
travelling have been demon trated. From
the outset there was an enormous saving in
clerical laber. One ticket clerk could do
the work of dozen, there being only a few
sets of tickets to handle and the bo0kkeep-
ing being about as simple as the counting of

TIE AUTHORIZATION BILL

A CHAPTER OF ACCIDENTS.

a special article in Sundays CALL tells
how narrowly the Hawaiian Islands missed
becoming a part OF the United States in
1854. almost forty years ago. Two acct
dents appear TO nave combined to prevent
annexation at that time. First in order was
the election Of Prince Alexander from an
Eastern hotel on the ground of color. The
impression prevailed in benighted New
England at the time that compilations
darker than a Northern brunette constituted
a brand OF inferiority. The Prince Alex
andeT was a rather fne-looking young man,
but several shades darker than the New
England sun tanned the skins Of New Eng
land people. SO a hotelkeepeT ordered his
worthy guest TO leaVe-nOt TO stand upon
the order Of his going, hut to 60 at once.
Prince Alexander was not in position 20
argue the question with the great man Of a
New England hotel. and consequently he
complied with the request Some months
later the question Of annexation became a
live one in Honolulu, with the King on one
side and the Prince on the other The
latter did not like the idea Of being a citizen
Ut subject Of a country whose people re-
garded him as unfit to sit at an ordinary
hotel table. But he allowed lis scruples to
be so far overcome that be gave verbal
assent to a treaty Of annexation the King
was ready to sign when the heir-apparent
should withdraw his objections. The day
was appointed for an exchange Of sigma
lures. 1t was at this point that the second
accident got in S work. The annexation
lists gave banquet in cOmmemoratlOn OF
the coming event, and the King partook
somewhat too freely OF the good things sci
before him. BE awoke the next morning
with full appreciation Of the truth of the
now famous line, But oh! what differ
ence in the morning" The people who
had him in charge refused him the
"bracer" which helps to tide over
the morning hours, and the King, not
knowing much about the different kinds Of
ram, watched bis opportunity and drank
about two quarts of bay rum in the belief
that he WIS drinking pure Jamaica. The
thirsty King died without signing the
treaty, ana the Prince changed his mind
when he became King, refusing to sign at
all.
These events happened nearly forty years
sgo. Annexation cIers now come from the
