Tunnels Connecting Two Continents.

From the Scientific American
 Of the three barriers to a continuous railway route from Great Britain to Af- rica through France and Epain the Moni- teur de rIndustrie ct de la Construction expresses the satisfaction of the French people that two are prospectively broken down. The tunnel under the Pyreneea will soon be an accomplished fact. Ths problem of one under the Straits of Gib- raltar will be successfully solved by the French engineer Bertier The length of the latter will be forty-one kilometers and the depth 400 meters under the sea. It is difficult, says the Moniteur, to esti- mate it's cost, but judging from the work under the East and North rivers at New York, it cannot be less that 425,000,000 francs. The third barrier to the eontinu- ous route, the Straits of Dover Is regardz ed as unsurmountabe at present. in view of the conviction of the English people that safety depends on their insular posi- ton.

The grain market was somewhat lower today on continued good reports from the wheat belt. September wheat was off about 14c, while corn was a4c lower. The trade in oats while light was inclined to weakness. Provisions were shade higher on light run of hogs.
 We are of the opinion that wheat and corn have declined enough, and would advise the purchase of September wheat and corn at present prices.

Good Fruit Market Conditions,

The president of the Rogue River
Valley Fruit Growres' Union at Med
ford, Oregon, said recently: 81 have
reports from the east and California
that indicate most excellent market
for our fruit this year. The Eastern
peach crop is short and that always
means good market for pears, the
later fruit taking the place of peaches.
Besides thig the pear crop in Callfor-
MIA is not up to the average. There
will be no Bartlets there for export,
the canneries use them all, SO that
the Rogue River grower will have a
good market. am inclined to think
that the fruit crop as whole will be
only about average this year. Some
varieties of fruit and some localities
will have large crops, while others will
fall below the average, but | believe
that the quality will be such and the
prices SO good that the income from
this source will be as large, if not
larger, than in years when the crop
has been much larger. "

Uncle Sam Says Spell 1t "Clark".

The United States Board of Geograph-
ical names has reversed its former de
cision as to the spelling of the surname
of Lieut.. William Clark, the explorer
and hereafter the final "e" will be drop
ped from the name of Lewis and Clarke
county on the government maps Of Mon
tana. 1t appears that the best authori-
ties now agree that while the famous
pathfinder played no favorites in the
spelling Of his cognomen, the simpler
form is entitled to the preference and
"Clark" it will be so far as Uncle Sam
can make his influence felt Under this
decision the board would probably rule
that the short spelling of Clarke county
in this state, which was named after the
intrepid lieutenant, according to the
generally accepted tradition. Another
point in favor OF the short spelling is the
TACT that the big fair in Portland hos
officially designated as the Lewis and
Clark Observation-Disclosures Re-

Planting Pears at MedfOrd.

DR., f. b. rickel, mayor of Medford,
was in Hood River last Wednesday Wis
ting his friend Mr.. Shepard of the
Fruit union. While here the doctor was
taken for drive through out the valley
by Mr.. Smith. DR.. Pickel is willing to
admit that Hood River Strawberries sur.
pass Jackson county berries, and he also
believes Hood River can grow some very
fine apples.
'If it were not for Medford, Hood
River would be the finest country in the
world" remarked DR.. Pickel, who is
loyal to his Southern Oregon.
DR.. Pickel is the owner of several fruit
farms in Jackson county. This spring
he planted l50 acres to fruit, half of
which he set to fall pears. Jackson
county fruit growers are settingas many
pears as apples, says DR.. Pickel. Pears
do very well in that country, and are
found very profitable.
The Medford country has 5000 acres
planted to apple orchards, about twice
the acreage of apples in Hood River.
A l50-acre orchard is not considered
very large in Medford, there being many
larger than this. Land is not so high
priced there as Hood River, yet several
sales were recently made at $500 an
acre.
"MedfOrd orchardists believe they
have a good thing and are not putting
their farms on the market" said Mayor
Pickel. Zone real estate man told me
the other day that he was having hard
work to get hold of property for people
who wanted to buy.n

NORMAN WILLIAMS
TO HANG, JULY q

Norman Williams has been senten-
ced by Judge Bradshaw to be hung in
the Wasco county court yard at The
Dalles, Friday, July 81. When Will
Jams was led into the court room last
Saturday by Deputy Sheriff Haight,
with Sheriff Sexton, Marshal Wood
and Constable Harper following, the
prisoner walked erect and with not
the slightest appearance of nervous
ness.
Have you anything to say before
the court fixes the time for the exc
cution of judgment?" asked Judge
Bradshaw.
Promptly and almost before the
Judge finished the question, he ans
wered, without tremor in his voice,
mo, sir, have not" Neither did
he show the least agitation as the
Judge proceeded:
at is therefore the judgment of
this court, that you, Norman Will
Jams, are guilty of the crime of mur-
der in the first degree; and it is fur
ther ordered and adjudged by the
court that you be conveyed to the
county Jail of this Wasco county, and
there kept a close prisoner until the
2lst day of July, 1905, on which day
you be taken by the sheriff of this
county into the enclosure of the jail
yard of said county where you are
confined, and in the presence of twelve
bona fide electors of this county, you,
then and there, be, by the said sher-
iff, hanged by the neck until you are
dead. And may God have mercy on
your soul. l."
With the same stole manner and
measured stride Williams left the
court room and only when he was be-
ing locked in the Jail did he speak,
saying to the iailer: ''He gave me a
week longer than wanted to live"

Many VIII Attend the Encampment.

Old soldiers and their wives from
Hood River will attend the Grand
Army encampnent at Oregon City
next week in force. The encampment
begins Wednesday, June u, and con-
tinues three days
Major T. G. Bell, superintendent of
the &. A. r. campground in the park
at SellW ood, has issued notices that
the grounds there are ready for camp
ers. The campgrOund is free to G. A.
K. and Women's Relief Corps men,
bers and families. Bull Run water is
to be had in the park. Cars stop at
the park. Tents and cots have been
put up for rent at low prices. There
will be restaurant on the ground.
Major Bell has made arrangements to
keep complete register of all visiting
comrades, giving the regiment and
state from which the veterans come.
For campers there is an abundance of
fuel free from the nearby sawmill.
Immediately following the encamp-
ments at Oregon City, for Oregon,
and at Vancouver, for Washington,
the vetreans will gather at the park
for the first big camp fire. The Sell
wood Park will be the gathering place
of the veterans this summer, when
they are rot attending the Fair, and
they expect to have an all l-summer
reunion. Old soldiers who have not
met since they parted on the battle
fields at the close cf the war, or when
they were discharged, will here renew
their comIadeship in a succession of
camp fires, around which the old
stories will be told by those who we're
the characters and actors. Members
of the local posts say that the old
soldiers are everywhere looking for
ward with pleasure to the reunions
and campfres that are planned for the
summer in SellWood Park. The people
of Sellwood have responded quite lib
really toward cleaning up the grove,
and will do their part in making the
stay of the old soldiers and families,
who may camp at the park, pleasant.
Major Bell is ready to give any infor-
nation concerning the grounds and
how to reach them.
