TABLE GRAPES FROM PERSIA.
Some Varieties offered by the State Uni
verstty.

Some Varieties offered by the State Uni
versity.
Prof. E. W. Hilgard, Berkeley expert
ment station, says the grapes OF the
table lands OF Persia have won praise
from all travellers who have eaten them.
These vines are of the Wits vinifers, but
the fruit hae quite distinctive charac-
ter when compared with the varieties
chiefly grown in the west OF Europe.
Prot. II. Z. Van Deman, ex-pomologist
OF the department of agriculture, &C.
cured through the kindly aid of our
minister at Ieheran, Hon. +. Spen-
Ger Pratt, an Importation OF the
best Persian varieties. These vines
were in part entrusted to this station
and we have propagated enough to offer
a small supply to our correspondents
this year. Those varieties which we
have fruited ripen very early,
about with the Sweetwster, and
ss they are much firmer heshed
and tougher skinned than that va
riety they may prove of high value for
early shipping. The berries of the va
rieties we have fruited thus far are of
large size, long-oval form and good
quality. We offer the following varieties
this year; the criptions are imper-
feet, as some have not fruited here:
1-Paykaynee Razukee: Bright red,
large, long, Jew seeds.
2-Dizmar: Light yellow, very sweet,
long and tapering.
S-Khailillee Said to be the earliest
in Persia.
4-Askaree Widely grown in Persia
and used both for table and drying I;
black, resembling Cornichon but coll
eiderably earlier.
5-Rish Bahia Aleo leading variety
in the Orient for table and drying and
said to keep until spring.
6-Hutsb: A large, sweet grape.
7-shiraz: Named for one of the most
important grape regions Of Persia,
where it is a leading sort.
S-Athakahee: Red, said to be suited
for long keeping.
9-Chayooshee Green, rare variety
in Persia.
10--White shashanee: Large, oblong,
light color.

THE LATEST FAD.
Live Chameleons Worn as Ornsm emit,
Both Men and Women.

Live Chameieons Worn as Ornaments by
Both Men and Women.
Philadelphia Record: Within the
last few weeks thousand wriggling,
squirming specimens Of the latest fad
which now holds society captive have
been unloaded on the usually conserva-
tive devotees of fashion in this city.
Just when or where this fad developed
is uncertain, but the worlds fair, if not
the guilty party, is at least an accomplice.
Beetles and goldbugs in their little
gold cages have subsidized into oblivion
before the triumphal entrance OF the
chameleon. Although necessarily dis
gustng to the uneducated mind, which
still retains the inherent bate OF the
whole reptile family, the chameleons
possess beauties and charms which can
not be overlooked. On the solid color
OF an evening dress the delicate, ever
changing hues of the chameleon's body
make charming contrast, and some OF
the holder ladies allow the lizard to rest
on the folds OF their s!lken tressses or
vouchsafe the privilege OF reclining in
luxurious ease on their white bosom.
Men are not exempt from this edct OF
fashion, and the conventional dress suit
is 20 longer complete withouta chame-
leon adjoining the lapel. 1t also forms
an excellent substitute for scarf pin.
The fame of the chameleon as light
ming change artist has been consldera-
bly, overrated. He cannot change to
the exact color OF his surroundings, but
in a warm temperature or when fright
ened, he takes on combination OF
beautifully shaded colors, such as no
painter can successfully depict. He can
always shade his coat in harmony with
the background. In the headquarters
on Callowhill street. above Tenth,
chameleons are kept in an incubator,
which lie always kept at temperature
of 70 or so degrees. Every morning they
are taken to the different agencies about
the city and returned in the evening to
be fed and warmed up. They are per.
fectly clean, and can be left on an i'm
maculate shirt bosom for week with
out leaving the slightest blemish. The
curious creatures entertain great affec-
ton for one that uses them kindly"
said the dealer, land often seek
solace in death when deprived of their
old mistress. Under ordinary circum-
stances, if regularly fed on flies and
sugar, they live five or six years. The
popularity OF chameleons for Christmas
presents is evidenced by the sale OF 80
dozen within the last few days"

Mr.. C. F. Saunders of Philadelphia
justly calls attention to the great beauty
of this tree The male ailantus first
disgusts by its disagreeable odor, and
then the flowers fall, leaving nothing
more behind them But the female
flowers have rather pleasant fragrance
and are followed by the fruit, which
soon takes on beautiful golden color.
Most will agree with him that there
are few things more beautiful than the
female ailantus with its young fruit
during the months of August and Sep
TENDER. BY the way, the name is allan
tus and not ailanthus as frequently writ
ten, the tree being named from the Chi

NOT CALLED.

He may be scholar familiar with books,
10 person model. unrivaled for looks.
An orator, too, like the great Mr.. Puff,
But that. to our notion. is not quite enough.
In language decided the truth must be told,
Wethink for our parish he's rather too old.
For aught that we hear of he may be saint
And none of his errors makes any complaint
He knows all the canons and rubrics by heart.
And oft to the needy will blessings impart.
But he isn't the shepherd we want at our fold.
We think for our parish he's rather too old
Did you ever learn that experience tells
And work by master for full value sells?
You make mistake when that man you pass
by.
And say, when inquired of the reason and
why,
In language emphatic, 1.-THE truth must be
told
We think for our parish he's rather too old !"
Oh, what shall we do when our pastors get gray
And cannot quite compass the world in a day?
know nothing else save devoutly TO pray
They soon may be called to some region
away,
Where angels invite to the city of gold,
And none will refuse them for being too old.

SEEKING A MOTHER.
LONG SEARCH FOR A MESSING
RELATIVE.
An Estate Involved In the Hunt-No
News Received for Five Years.
They Are Anxious to Ascsr-
tain Her Whereabouts.

San Francisco Chronicles Eleven
years ago Mrs. Ann Johnston was
welded to Thomas IL. Duval, then q
local musician. Mrs. Johnston had FIVE
children and the marriage proved dis
tasteful to them. Family relations were
not OF the most amicable character, and
four yeare later Mrs. Johnston-D uval
decided to leave San Francisco with her
husband.
They went eastward and the family
ties we're practically sundered. For two
years after her departure Mrs. Duvsl
correeponded with daughter, now de-
ceased, but suddenly letters ceased to
come. Five years have passed and the
surviving members OF the family have
heard not word either directly or indi-
rectly from the mother who left them
wears ago. Inquiries have been made
in many eastern cities. Friends OF the
family travelling toward the rising sun
have searched in vain. During the ex-
position at Chicago, it was thought
the missing relative had been located,
but the hope was in vain.
During the past two years the search
has been especially kept up. as mat
ter OF considerable Importance to mother
and children has developed. During
this time the father of Mrs. Duval has
passed away at Sydney, n. S. W. He
was Alexander Douglas, a well-to-do
resident of the antipodes. His grand.
children are anxious to learn what has
become of their mother, in order that
the estate may be settled and go to the
proper heirs,
Their stepfather has two sons now in
this city who are as much il the dark
regarding their fathers whereabouts as
his stepchildren. The sons are Fred
and Herbert Duval. The latter is at
present cornet player in the band at
the Pavilion skating rink.
One of Mrs. Duval's daughters, Mrs.
Harriet Sharp, resides at 542 Turk
street. With her is living her brother,
David Johnston. Another brother,
James H. Johnston, resides in Los An
geles. Mrs. J. W. Gum of 1927 Twenty
fifth street ia sister OF Mrs. Sharp.
When seen last evening, Mrs. Sharp
said: "We have had no trace of mother
for FIVE years. Lately | heard that enc
was in Denver. and have asked the
police of that city to search for her. l
fear that she is dead, because OF the
long time that has elapsed since we
have heard from her. Her marriage to
Mr.. Duval was not to our liking, and
after mother learned our views che
decided to 60 away.
''She is Scotch, and spunky," ex-
planned Mrs. Sharp, land the course che
took was in accord with her nature.
The estate of her father cannot be set
tied until we are assured either of her
death or that she is alive to receive the
henueet -
