The new grand-stand at the Uni

cries uttered By any one sitting there
come back with remarkable clearness,
the echo can be as easily understood
as the original utterauce. The armory

sounds back, while the Mechanical

of the field aid in preserving their
distinctness. The rooters will have .
double chance at teams on the field,

God could have made a better thing than strawberry, but had not done so. This odor of strawberries is all over Norfolk these days. This city of strange, start ling and even terrifying smells for short season every year is as if swept by the "perfumed winds of Araby," and the sweet scent of strawberries is all pervad- ing. A few weeks ago it was onions.
 Up in the Millions.
 The total value of the truck which will go out of Norfolk this year is estimated at S.00O.000. It is estimated that the value of the berry crop this year will be in the neighborhood of three-quarters of mil lion. The crop last year amounted to S6,534 crates, or 5,192, ,040 quarts. The crop this year is as large as last years. 1t is thought, and prices are much better. Strawberries are now selling at from IA to 19 cents a quart. Truckers are certain the price will not be materially reduced If the weather continues cool. ripening the berries gradually. A week of hot weather would cause all the berries to ripen at once, and a consequent glut in the market. though I am at loss to see how the steamship companies could haul a much greater quantity.
 But whether this or that occurs, the fact will remain that berries and other truck this year have brought great re- u tflt sIOWcISs Ihey dlC uChe htCu and so is everybody else. for truck farm CTS do not as rule hoard their treasure.
 The banker referred to in the opening of this article called attention today to a striking fact, illustrative of the financial strength of Norfolk and the value of trucking in the sum of this city's pros perity. During the panic of 1893, when even the New York banks were forced to compel their depostors to draw only small sums each in the course of twenty four hours the depositors in the banks of Norfolk were absolutely unrestricted, and drew as much as they had deposited. This was due nearly entirely to the con stant, though fluctuating. inflow from the shipment of truck.
 Truck makes millions and millionaires. 1 think it is putting some growers across the million mark his season. It is filling this city and section with money. It is making rich and poor and black and white happy and thankful that the Crea- tor has blessed their country more rich ly than almost any He has made.

Recently have been reading with great delight, and it is a very happy change from most of the current literature of the day. | venture to say that few of the readers and lovers of the work of Bill Arp knowGof his latest production, for it has not had Every wide prominence given it.. But in 1t will be found the cream of the work of this great writer. Bill Arp is in deed man to be envied. There is prob ably no other man in America or the world who is in such close touch with his readers, or whose own individuality is so we'll known to them. This is not true be- cause he has thrust himself forward-oh, no-but rather the contrary is the true state of the case. In what he writes, as in what he has written, we have the in teresting spectacle from week to week of a good man giving himself to the large public he has made for himself in the course of thirty-odd years.
 With very simple style-for he is a very simple mana natural flow of hu- mor, and a complete absence of self-con- eciousness, he writes as we should expect to hear him talk. There are pages and pages in his book that are so simple and direct that they seem to be easy writing; that is to say, the reader will imagine that he or she could do this sort of thing himself or herself, and not half try, but if the aforesaid reader will only take the trouble to try the experiment, he will not

He will find, that in spite of education and knowl- edge that easy reading Is the hardest kind of writing, and then he will be willing to admit that the feat has been or can be accomplished by the fewest number of those who write for the public.
 The first two chapters of the book might have been turned into a novel. The pos abilities are all there-a lonely. child hunt ing for her kindred, the long waiting and the final happy ending. What more is necessary? But Major Smith has pre- ferred to tell the story in the briefest pos sble way, and he has told it with con- summate skill and in the most effective way. 1 defy any one who has a heart to read this beautiful story without tears as he goes along, or without feeling a happy glow steal over him as he comes to the close of the second chapter. Truth is all ways beautiful, and this story is true.
 There is a delicious homeliness that reaches from the first chapter to the last You fall easily under the spell of one who sees life sanely. and sees it whole" and it is a spell that has no influence but for good. In short, Bill Arps work is sound and wholesome. His philosophy is light ened up with gentle humor and playful fancy The scope of his work is broad, having in it something for all
