EVEN THE NATIVES ARE AsTONIShED
BeWildering and Beautiful Display or
Fruits, Grains. Etc.

Spokane, Wash, Oct 2.
If there is country anywhere that
can put up a finer all-round exhibit Of
fruits, vegetables, grains, roots and
grasses than is to be seen at the Spo-
kane fruit fair the thousands of visit
ors who daily view the exhibits with
intense admiration would like to know
where it is.
One can spend hours looking over the
exhibits and then make the same trip
over and over again only to find some
new object Of interest each time. Near
ly every visitor feels that he would like
to own farm capable Of producing
such luscious fruits, such wonderful
vegetables and such splendid crops of
cereals The exhibits are a constant
surprise even to persons who have lived
in this section for years. They never
knew before that so many different
things would grow here. This is not
corn country" is an expression never
heard at the fruit fair, for anyone to
whom it was addressed could point to
a dozen county exhibits showing as
| fine corn as ever grew east Of the
! Rockies.
The visitor from the east is aston
ished to see tobacco, peanuts, almonds.
Walnuts, hazel nuts, filberts, perslm-
mons, chestnuts and many other things
which it has always been supposed
would not grow in this country. But
they do.
Few persons have any idea of the i'm
mense number of varieties of fruits,
vegetables, grains, etc., that are on
exhibition in some of the district and
county exhibits.
A FEAST FOR THE EYES.
The west room in the Odd Fellows
building contains only three exhibits,
hit they are whole fruit fair in them
selves and visitors go in and feast thelf
ewes on the splendid products, and re-
turn again and feast some more.

Woman's Directory.

One interesting feature of the
woman's edition of The Time, to be
issued next week, will be a
Woman's Business Directory. 1t is
the desire of the management that
the name of every woman in Homo
lulu who is doing business for her
self will find its way into this col
umn, be she doctor or lawyer,
teacher or nurse, dressmaker or
milliner, keeper of a boarding or
lodging house, or in any other hon
orable line of work to which cir
cumstances or conditions have
called her. BY this means she may
not only help herself, it Is hoped,
but have this opportunity to con-
tribute something to a great branch
of woman's work for children, in
which all are interested to build up
and enlarge.

There is little doubt but what Senator
Morgan with the aid of Senators Sherman
and Frye will be able to secure the final
vote on the Nicaragua canal bill on Fri
day, and that it will secure a passage with
a majority of from IL to Is. Its chances
in the House, however, are not so encour-
aging Under existing conditions Amer
icanism is at a discount in that body.
The great Pacific railways are hostile to
the measure, and their influence upon the
lower branch of Congress has always been
potent. Speaker Crisp, it is believed, is
opposed to the bill, and recently he has
taken pains to announce that the commit
tee on rules would fix no time for the
consideration of the bill Even if there
were a decided majority in it's favor in the
House, which is doubtful, its passage
could be put over to another session by its
opponents, unless the committee on rules
would clear the way for it's consideration.
When the next Congress convenes the out
look for this and other measures looking
to the future greatness and development
of our country in it's foreign trade and re-
lations will have much more favorable

that those toplofty names will sound very

not uncommon to find an Earl Jones, a
Baron Smith or Duke Robinson, whose
fond parents invested them at baptism
with these resembling forenames, and
