LOOKING AT THE PICTURES.

A remarkable Transformation has set
in within the past decade in the Illus
trated press of the United States.
When Harpers' and Frank Leslie's We'd
with each other as illustrators of the
striking events of the Civil war, illustrat-
ed periodicals were still in their infancy.
1t was the illustrated weekly which gave
birth to the entire brood of foolish Illus
trated monthlies, with their aggregation
of theatrical pictorial advertising accom-
panied by literary comment too crude
and too silly to entitle it even to criti-
cism 1t was the illustrated weekly which
urged ON the experimenters of the daily
press. Their success it was which
brought Grabayedorff to an understand
ing of what might be accomplished in
the direction of the illustration of the
daily paper.
Readers of New York daily papers ff-
teen or twenty years ago will have no
difficulty in recalling the illustrated Daily
Witness. That was the real pioneer in
daily illustration, and it died unrecogn.z-
ed, as most pioneers die.
Tt would be unfair to offer q COMPARE
son between the illustrated daily of to-
day and the weekly of twenty years
ago. Yet it cannot really be said that
the older publication is the chief sufferer
by the comparison The weekly Of the
past made up In editorial comment for
acterized current events with a degree
of detail and exactness which is not fur
nished by that of today. It's staff Of cor
respondents and illustrate was as strong
as those Of today, although the oppor-
tunities or facilities were infinitely less.
1t is a characteristic of today that no
one cares particularly for others opn-
ions. So, editorial opinion counts today
on little or nothing. Worse than that,
the most hopelessly inconsequential ''rot"
printed in the editorial position passes
today for intelligent opinion. Literary
matter published in an illustrated weekly
twenty years ago-such as passes cur
rent for editorial comment today-would
effect the ruin of any publication today.
Perhaps it is unjust to the publisher
of the illustrated weekly publication to
leave the impression that the existing
fault is his. 1t is not. The current illus
trated monthly, saving the few first-class
publications, is a literary abortion. 1t is,
too, so far as real illustration is involved,
an utter fraud. Any intelligent reader
who takes up any one of the three lead
ing weekly Illustrated papers and who
compares them with the 1ow-class month
ly illustrated, readily sees how far in
lies.
1t is sorry statement to make that
the general excellence of the superior
illustrated weekly of today. is not ap-
preciated as it should be. The cheap
John enterprise is in demand, whether it
is weekly or, monthly. 1t is so, too, be-
cause, first, the illustrations are designed
on the sensational rather than the in
structive, basis; and, second, because
men and women are rapidly losing the
art of reading and when they pick I'D
publication of any kind, turn, in their in
telleetual laziness, to the pictures, to the
exclusion of the literary composition.

Mumns sared Him.

Lansing (Ndich.) Cor Detroit Free Press.
A Williamson young man was arrested
for larceny from a store. While waiting
in jail for his trial he developed a case Of
mumps. Today he was brought into court
for trial. The attorneys were afraid OF
him, the justice didn't care to associate
with him and six men could not be Sc
cured who would sit as Jurors in the case.
The young man demanded an immediate
trial. and under the constitution he was
entitled to 1t. Finally it was decided to
turn the prisoner over to the health Off
Ger, but that individual was sick. At last
1t was agreed to let him go home, and the
prosecution was dropped.

HIGHLAND IS RICH
IN FRUIT INDUSTRY,
Thirty Carloads of Elbertas Gone
Already.
CITY INTERESTED IN SHIPPING
Dozens of People Employed and Cot
fers Of Fruit Growers Filling Up
Ready Sale For the Fine Fruit at
satisfactory Prices.

Americas, thrifty little neighbor,
Richland, is busy community right
now, and ere another week passes the
peach growers there will be ahead OF
the game to the extent of 5000 to
81, 900 from the sale of Elbertas.
Mr.. John @. Nicholson returned here
yesterday from Richland, and tells the
story of her prosperity.
For be it known that Richland is the
commercial centre of that great peach
growing section, and within her gates
are now gathered peach buyers and
peach shippers galore.
The whole community, Mr.. Nichol-
son says, is interested in this great in
dustry, and dozens of young lads and
pretty girls, whose cheeks cannot be
distinguished from the bIushing FL
bertas, are busy packing the fruit.
For it's dollars to them and a great
pleasure besides.
Already, Mr.. Nicholson reports,
more than thirty carloads of Elbertas
have been shipped from the RichIand
orchards, and the season is just now
about at it's height.
More carloads are going daily, and
more money is coming to the pockets
of the fruit growers.
Many of the owners of orchards, Mr..
Nicholson says,-sell their fruit on the
spot to commission men from Buffalo,
Baltimore and other points at prices
ranging from 81 to ST. % per crate right
at the depot.
This is good price for peaches; the
grower gets his money and goes home
happy, with no fear of getting a de-
mand for freight money,
One grower sold the fruit of his or
Ohard on the trees for 5000.
Small boys, Mr.. Nicholson says,
earn from So to So per day packing
peaches, and the girls, who do the
work faster, earn in proportion. They
get two cents per crate for packing,
The fruit is delivered from the or
chards at a big warehouse near the de-
pot, There hundred nimble little
fingers sieze the pretty peaches, sort
them in jiffy and pack them in crates
ready for shipment.
It is a great and inspiring sight,
this packing Elberta peaches.
And the industry is a very profitable
one. Besides giving employment to
scores of men, boys and girls, the
revenue derived by the growers will
run high into the thousands of dollars,
and Increases yearly.
Great is busy Richland in her har-
vest of red, ripe Elbertas and stacks of
bright dollars.
