An Enormous Apple Crop.

Throughout the States of the chief com
mercial production, including New Eng
land, New York, ETC., the crop of winter
apples is very large according to the spec
ial report in last weeks New England
Homestead, which places the aggregate
yield shade under 50, 900, 900 barrels for
all in the United States against 60, 800, 900
barrels in 1895 and 81, 1929, 600 barrels two
years ago. This authority says the crop
in New England, New York, Michigan
and parts of a few other States is simply
phenomenal. New England and New
York alone have over 16, 900, 900 barrels
against little more than 1000, 600 year
ago, while Michigan is harvesting the
greatest crop of fine fruit ever secured in
that State.
In sharp contrast the report covering
the central west shows that in very many
instances the crop is insufficient to supply
home requirements. The Canada crop
is among the largest on record. Under
existing known conditions it is not strange
that the opening prices Of winter fruit
should be exceptionally low. Exports
from the Atlantic coast are already one
million barrels this year, or third more
than experienced all of last season. and
the foreign markets have capacity for
absorbing further vast quantities before
another spring. Perhaps the most hope
full situation rests upon the possibilities
in the way of an outlet for the eastern
surplus in the west and southwest.

The doctor sat few moments, then
took his hat and went out. Mrs. Mason
supposed he went to the saloon. After
putting Lille to bed she stepped out tor
an neighbor to come in and remain while
she attended the weekly prayer meeting.
The doctor did not enter the saloon but
walked around the village. While walk
ing he heard music in the church and
seemed to be drawn irresistibly within its
walls. When seated he noticed the peo-
pie were singing hymn his mother used
to sing. He was very much affected, and
wept for some time. Before the services
closed he arose and said, "Friends, l am
resolved, with Gods help, that l will be
no longer slave to strong drink. l want
the prayers of Gods people that | may
keep my resolve If ever a person felt
like rejoicing it was Mrs. Mason, and the
audience shared her feelings. 1t had
been hard for the friends of the doctor to
see him going to ruin, soul and body. DR..
and Mrs. Mason walked home together.
The scales had completely fallen from his
eyes and he could see what awful danger
he had been in. Mrs. Mason's heart was
filled with gratitude to God. She felt
that God was answering her prayers. The
next morning little Lille seemed to feel
the change. She appeared as though she
thought "papa was glad to see Lille"
In short time DR.. Mason was thorough
ly converted to God With him it was no
half work. He became a power for
good in the village. The saloon keeper
feels the hard times and realizes that he
will not get any more 'loose change
from DR.. Mason. AS time passes along
the DR.. and Mrs. Mason feel that they
have beautiful flower in their keeping,
and in the gift they try hard not to forget
the Giver. j. c. NJ.

The Ii. A. r. Encampment.

1t has been almost definitely decided that
hereafter the annual encampment of the
Maine G. A. r. will be held in May instead
of in February, the reason for the contem-
plated change being, as has already been
stated, the discomfort of travel in Maine
during the cold mouth Of February. 1t is
thought the change if made will result in a
much larger attendance at the encampment
The other New England States view the idea
of change favorably, answers in favor thus
far having been received from all except
Rhode Island which has not been heard
from. The proposed movement would result
in quite a lengthening of the terms of office
of the present incumbents. Rockand Star

The Doctors Wife.

Miss Alma Leavitt was the only child OF
Mr.. and Mrs. James Leavitt, who lived in
town in western Maine. Mr.. Leavitt
was man of intelligence and a great
reader. He was well posted on the affairs
of the country, was in town business for
years and represented his town in the
Legislature He was a carpenter by trade,
and by industry and frugaliuy became
forehanded. He had a nice home and
everything to make life pleasant. He was
very fortunate in his selection of life
partner. His companion was woman of
intelligence and refinement with a large
share of common sense. Benevolence was
we'll developed with both of them. They
realized that some seem to be born to sor-
row and suffering, and they were ready to
lend helping hand. In giving they felt
fulness of heart that could not be meas
ured by words or counted by dollars. If
any were sick Or in trouble they felt that
duty called them to visit such ones. They
never waited for an invitation to watch
with the sick; their services were offered.
They often thought of the words of the
Master, ''Inasmuch as We have done it
unto one of the least of these my breth
rem, We have done it unto me-
Mrs. Leavitt was a mild, pleasant
woman, but never backward in defending
right and putting down wrong. Nothing
would arouse her indignation like the evils
of intemperance. She would talk elo
quently of the righteousness of the pro-
hbitory law and of efforts for its enforce
ment When she was told that prohibit
ton took away the liberty of the people,
she would ask the question, Do you know
that liberty means the power to do right?
When people argued in favor of license,
her reply was it meant the power to do
wrong. Liberty is to right what license
is to wrong. Every liquor license is sold
for so much with the distinct understand
ing that wrong is to come of it. Often
license places poor women at the mercy
OF unprincipled men. Mrs. Leavitt knew
that sometimes after the father had let
his last cent 90 for strong drink, while
his little children We're in place they
called home, crying with hunger, his
wife, perhaps, would step into the saloon
and kindly ask the saloon keeper not to
let her husband have any more strong
drink His reply would be, "NIadaln,
pay Il license for my business.
Miss Alma Leavitt was all that her par
ents could desire, physically, mentally and
morally. She had sweet, sunny dispo-
sition,

AUSTRALIAN Be HUM.
How the Natives Find the weII-Fine
Hives.


An Australian savage comes up to
an Irishnan's idea of human skill, for
''he bates the bees a native seldom
fails to get honey when he discovers
the bee he has been wathching for. The
following description of Il natives bee
hunt is given in Mr.. Arthur's kangaroo
and Kuu1i:"
Warruyallah, the chief of tribe,
went with two little nets to a small pool,
filled his mouth with water, and then
lying down, his head hanging over the
pool, he remained quiet for an hour.
apparently looking at his own reflection
in the water. Then the hum of a bee
was heard. Buzz-z-z it went over the
pool, round the blacks head, now on one
side, now on the other, and now close
to his ear; but not motion betrayed
the bee hunter.
But when the bee, dropping close to
the water. gave notice by the change of
its tune that it was about to sip, the:
chief, with a. snort, squirted the water
from his mouth over the little ''buzzer.,
Before it had time to recover from the
unexpected douche, he seized it dex-
teriously by the wings.
Then he prepared it for the chase by
fastening to it bunch of wild cotton
with some gum. The bee was let go; it
made for its hive, slowly at first on ac-
count of its novel burden, which I'M
peded its progress and showed a sign in
the air for the chief to follow. Over
hramble and brake went the chief, ac-
companied by the men of his tribe, and
IN half an hour halted at the foot of an
immense gum tree, into whose top the
bee had gone.
The chief mounted quickly, by cutting
notches into the bark with his stone
tomahawl. In a short time he brought
down quantity of honeycomb. a small
piece only of which contained honey.
The Australian bees are stingless.

Battle-Ship Oregon's Fine
Run to Santa Barbara.
FASTER THAN THE MASSACHUSETTS
The Trial Trip win Probably Be De-
Iayed Until Tuesday
stakeboats Into Position.

SANTA BARBARA, CAL, May 10.-The
battle-ship Oregon dropped anchor in
the channel at IL O'Clock this morning,
outside the kelp. An Associated Press
reporter was the first aboard. In an in
terview, Irving M. Scott said:
''It will be Tuesday before we get off
on the trip. The stakeboats have to get
into position of the ranges. This must
be carefully and accurately done. The
position of the stabeboats will be as fol-
lows: At the eastern end, opposite
Goleta wharf, the Unadilla; the Nc
Arthur at the western range, 81 miles
north from the start; the Albatross off
Gavita wharf; the Gedney at a point
midway between the Unadilla and the
Albatross, about 10 miles apart.
"The run down was most satisfactory.
We left the whistling buoy off the bar at
1O:15 Saturday, the engines making
revolutions of 951s, with an average
speed of 1879 knots. We arrived at Port
Hartford at II o'clock. From Port Har-
ford to Point Conception, we loafed along
until daylight, to catch beacons and be-
come familiar with the course. Here we
'hit her up and made time from this
point to the lower range at rate of
1884 knots, for distance of 15 or Is
miles,
Enthusiasm ahoardship is unbounded,
and the record of the Massachusetts, of
1915 knots, is doomed, crowning the
Oregon queen, and placing her. at the
very front among ships of her class, in
all the naties of the world.
Admiral Beardslee, Captain Cotton.
Captain Goodall, and all the members
of the trial board, corroborated the
statement of Mr.. Scott.
"The Oregon behaved admirably and
we will beat the Massachusetts or bu'st
something" said Chief Engineer For

The experiment of covering a wrong
doer with a mantle of charity, has in this
case proven failure, and re-establishes
the truth of an old saw: ''Once a
rogue, always rogue"
The Denver Post of Tuesday, May 5th,
has the following, which will be of in
terest in Oregon:
''The police are looking for Lionel
Stagge and dozen or more mining bro
kers are mourning.h his sudden departure
from the city. Under pretext of pub
fishing manual of mining he gulled the
brokers for total of $3.50, but he used
an afternoon political organ as a cloak
to cover his transactions, and the brokers
are even more wrathy because of this.
One broker said yesterday: 1T is GER
tainly exasperating that, from quarters
where honesty should be paramount, we
encounter smooth crooks The after
noon organ was captured by the suave
manner and handsome appearance of
Lionel, and the cash drawer is nearly
empty. 1t was touched up to the tune
of $l75, and the building is in mourning.
Lionel drifted into this city about two
months ago. He is decided brunette,
minus moustache. The name under
which he sailed is no doubt an assumed
one. The police will for that reason
have difficulty in locating their man.
Lionel proposed the publication of
a book devoted entirely to mining, and
secured the cooperation of a Denver
daily paper, and the principal mining
brokers of the city. He worked for sew
eral weeks and used the hotel corridors
as scene of operations with out-of-town
mining men. How many of them he
caught no one will ever know. As he
was well dressed and good tallser, he
likely convinced many that his scheme
was great one. Without warning he
left town on the 25th of last month, and
the data collected went with him. His
name has been removed from over the
door of his office in the building of the
Denver newspaper which had gone into
the scheme with him.

John BOokwafter Believes Cleveland
win be Nominated.
CINcINNATTI, May 10.-A special to
the Commercial Gazette from Spring
field, O., gives an interview with John
w. Bookwalter, the democratic candl-
date for governor of Ohio in 1877. He
predicts that Grover Cleveland Will be
nominated for the fourth time at the
Chicago convention. He eulogizes the
president as the leader of tariff reform,
and says he is now wanted as the leader
of the war party in this country. Mr..
Bookwalter believes the condition of for
eign affairs, especially with Great Brit
ain and Spain, will be such, two months
hence, as to compel the democracy to
take up President Cleveland, and that
the war sentiment will be ID his
favor in November. He says the ad-
ministration will be heard at the prop
er time on the Cuban question, and
also on the Venezuela boundary, and
then it will be Cleveland's call. Mr..
Bookwalter also predicts a free silver
platform, and that the party will thus
be kept together for great struggle.
Mr.. Bookwalter is away much of his
time, but is now cultivating his old
home constituencies, and expects to go
to the Chicago convention as delegate.
