Pullman
Ordinary SleepcrS

The tourist travel between the East
and the Pacific Coast has reached enor-
nous proportions in the last few years,
and calls for special class OF equipment.
To meet this demand the Pullman Com
pany has issued from its shops what it
technically calls the pullman Ordinary
Sleeper" These cars appear similar to
the regular slcepers. being built on the
same plan, but not furnished with the
same elegance. They are equipped with
mattresses, blankets, sheets, pillows,
pillow-cases, towels, combs, brushes, etc.,
requiring nothing OF the kind to be fur
nished by the passenger. Each car has
a stove for making tea and coffee and
doing eight housekeeping" and each
section can be fitted with an adjustable
table. A uniformed porter accompanies
each car, his business being to make up
berths, keep the car clean, and look after
the wants and comforts of the passen-
gers. In each of the trains which arc
dispatched daily from Portland by the q.
X. T. N. Co. is to be found one OF these
pullman Ordinary sleepers." The car
attached to the "Chicago-Portland
Special" goes through to Chicago with
out change, and the one in the "Atlantic
Express" runs to Kansas City without
change. Passengers in this car for Chi
cago change to similar car at Granger.
Much of the first class travel is teing
carried in these cars, the rates being
lower, and the service nearly equal to
that in the palace sleepers.
For rates and full information, includ-
ing folders, write to A. l.. CRAIG, Gen
eral Passenger Agent o. II. Il N. Co.

The Date Palm.

The Secretary of Agriculture in his annual report speaking of the Date Palm. says:
 An importation which will proba- bly in time prove of great value tO the south western part of the country ls that Of date palms obtained in Af- rica. number of years ago limited importation of these palms was made from Egypt, and. while most of them were lost through diversity of cll- mate. the shipments helped to show the possibilities of date growing in Arizona and Southern California. Through agents of the department a small shipment of date palms was secured from Algeria in 1899, and a large shipment from the same coun try, mostly from the borders of the Sahara Desert. in 1900 and fully 90 per cent of these are growing vigor- ously. This year n collection of the choicest varieties in Egypt has been obtained and sent to the Southwest, this importation being in continuation of the plan to obtain from every part of the world where the date palm Is grown complete collection of the choice varieties.
 "The date palm is Of special value in the hot Southwestern country, since 1t thrives and fruits best where the summers are long and hot, as in Arizona and California. The estab- lishment of the industry in this sec ton. therefore would make 1t possi- ble to utilize much of the land there which. though irrigable, is too aka line for ordinary crops. It is hoped. now that large number of plants of the choicest varieties have been imported that In time this country may produce enough dates to supply the home demand and perhaps even some for export"

An incident occurred where a Kansas man went back after visiting California, and among the many ques- tions asked him was: How did you like the water?" Well. declare. forgot to taste it."

New Variety of Navel Oranges.

J. F. Cutter of Riverside, an experi- enced horticulturist. has developed a new variety of the navel orange. It Is not only earlier than the original navel orange in point of maturity, but Is a finer fruit and more prolific bear CT. The orange in question is the re- suit of a cross between navel orange tree raised from seed and the original tree. A seed in a navel orange is freak production. but occasionally happens. Mir. Cutter planted one Of these seeds and then budded slips taken from the young tree on to a natural navel orange tree. The new variety is thorny, a disadvantage as compared to the natural navel or ange tree, which has no thorns, but 1t is n thrifty grower. and. as has been stated. natures much earlier than its forebear. Mir. Cutter states that he has no buds for sale. as he wants to give the new variety a thorough testing before placing it on the market.-Herald.

New IeaIsnGs Industrial Progress.

Hugh Craig. formerly President of the San Franclsco Chamber of Com merce. and himself native of New Zealand. recently delivered an address ln Metropolitan Hall. San Francisco on Industrial and Social Legislation in New Zealand"
 Beginning with an interesting ac- count of that country. which he de- scribed as picturesque and extremely fertile. with passing reference to the splendid Maori race. by which the country was originally peopled, Craig went on to speak of the fine popula- ton of whites. chiefly Scotch. Irish and English. which settled the islands tn iS4l and of how the ownership of lands lnsensibly drifted into the hands of a few
 The man who owns the land owns the man who tills the land as the man who owns the machinery owns the machinist." proclaimed the speak CT. a statement which won round of applause. The history of older civili- Zations was repeated. Rich absentee owners proceeded to draw princely revenues from estates they left be- hind. growing sheep on the primitive plan, while willing. industrious men, who were land hungry. were unable to acquire homes. Being a progress sive. intelligent lot. they considered the situation. the canny Scotchman at the base, with the Irishman keeping things stirred up. and English level headedness to preserve the balance of wisdom. Labor captured the Legis- lature and passed a law taxing land heavily. at which there was an in- dignant protest. Then came an in- come tax. which raised another pro- test. and when the agents of the ab- sentee owners refused to pay the tax other laws were passed requiring the owners to fix their own assessments and authorizing the Government to buy estates at an advance of 10 per cent. on this appraisement In this way the Government recovered pos session of many valuable lands. built its own railroads. cut up large hold ings and furnished homes on long time to industrious heads of fami- Hes Today tract of 5000 acres which formerly employed twenty-five sLeep herders and produced sl25.00C annually. supports 2500 people in com fort and pays S500.0OO. growing boys and girls instead of sheep

WAR EXCITES
THEIR REGRET

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 1.-THE Amert-
can Friends Peace Conference, which has
been in session here for the past threo
days, came to an end tonight.
A declaration Of the position Of the
Friends of America on the subject OF war
was issued during the closing session. It
states that the conference is satisfied that
lapse of time has not made necessary a
change in the position which the Friends
have always taken on the subject OF war
The establishment Of the permanent In
ternational court Of arbitration Is recog-
nized to be one Of the greatest events IN
the history Of human society.
The declaration deplores the fact that
nations making the highest profession
of Christian civilization are at present en-
gagged in war with less civilized and en-
lightened peoples" and states that II Is
the belief OF the conference that the time
has already come when the view OF en-
lightened humanity should make iRef
heard calling for an adjustment otpthe
matters at issue.
Papers were read by Charles =. Ebbetts,
president of Whittier College, California.
and Edwin McGraw, president Of New

CLAIMANTS APPEAR
IN THE NORDICA SUIT
Ottawa Real Estate Man Declares He
Is Entitled to Some
Monev

OTTAWA, Kan, Dec. 14.-E. W. Dowd,
a real estate dealer of Ottawa, asserts
that if Madame Nordica, the singer,
wins her suit against the Government for
a sum said to be between three millions
and four millions, he will come in for a
share of the money.
Madame Nordica's claim is for money
paid the United States by the French
Government for the destruction of ships
cestor The money, it is said, was never
paid over to the Norton heirs. Ichabod
Norton was the grandfather of Dowd' S
grandmother, according to a record In
Dowd's possession. Dowd says he has
always known of a claim that his family
held against the Government, but had
never made any effort to collect it.
Another Kansas heir and relative of
Madame Nordica is Mrs. ]. B. Bowersock
of Lawrence Mrs. Bowersock and
Dowd's mother were cousins. DOWd SAYS
there are several other heirs in the
South.
