GRANp VALLEY rRosrERIrY.

The following article and three
large and handsome pictures of
orchard scenes in the Grand valley
appeared nj Sundays Denver Post:
Well named is the Grand valley
of Colorado. From the w. II. Ban
mister farm near Grand Junction, g.
200 boxes of peaches have already
been shipped and 300 more are still
to come and this from six acres.
From four acres, 1.O50 boxes of pears
have been shipped. The average
shipment from other farms in the
valley is on the same high grade.
Last year about 1000 cars of all
kinds of fruit were shipped from
the Grand valley. This year the
total shipment will not be so large,
because of the short peach crop, but
the shortage in Peaches in a way will
be compensated by the increased de
velopment and consequent production
of the orchards. showing greater
quantity in othr fruits in comparison
with last year.
In 1904 the average net price on
apples was 10 cents 10 S1.15, while
this year IT will be from 500 to
sl.75. The average on pears last
year was So cents while this year it
will be $1.5O.
Regarding Grand valley from a
standpoint other than its great fruit
production. prosperity is on every
hand. as is evidenced by the fact
that more than 100000 new stand
ard trees were sci out last spring,
The fruit grower in the valley has
passed the experimental stage and
seems 10 know just what to set out
10 bring the biggest returns.
A fair estimate of the building
in the valley, either in course of CON
struction, just completed or upon
which work is TO start in a few
days at Grand Junction would be
100000.
More money will be expended this
year in the erection of business
houses and residences than in any
year in the history of the city. The
seasons run at the sugar factory is
in full blast.
These facts show that Grand juno
tion is just now enjoying boom
which promises to be healthy and en-
during. 1t has never been a boom
town, but its growth has been steady
and permanent.

a SPLENDID COMPANY.

The people of Grand Junction have
in store a theatrical treat of an un-
usual nature and if they knew of its
high quality, the auditorium would

The War.

The only news of consequence from
the seat of war during the past week
was the report from St. Petersburg to
the effect that the Japanese have cap
tured Sakhalin island, landing troops
under guard OF battleships and taking
possession. Military circles in St. Pc
tersburg are said to be startled by the
news. although they were aware of the
fact that since Rojestvensky's feet
was out of the way, there was nothing
to prevent the Japanese from landing
whenever they got ready. The news
from Manchuria shows nothing of
consequence as having occurred there.

WRESTLING.
PARKER AT
 IT AGAIN
Says He Has Matched Beell and Tom Jenkins to Me ct in Madison Square Gar. den in October.

Harvey Parker, who is at present at Brockton, Mass. says that Fred Beell, the wonderful western wrest- Ter will make his debut in public in New, York in a match with Tom Jen- k1ns. The contest is to be held in Madison Square Garden in the first week in October and will be to a in- lsfl. "Beell," writes Parker, 'is train. ing every day. In my opinion he is one of the greatest little fellows that ever went on the mat. He was not entirely at his best when he met Jen- kins in private in New York last spring l do not wish to advance any excuses, but facts are facts. In the nrst place, the conditions under which the match was held were not to any mans liking. The ring was too small and the room was so stuffy and close that it was rather trying on the nerves of the man. Beell did all the work in the first hour of the match. You know 1t IS no easy task to toss around q man of Jenkins build. especially when he has the advantage in avoirdu- pois by at least fifty pounds. Had the mat been little bit larger feel confident that Fred would have won.
 He had Jenkins partly on his back several times. but either the partition or the wall was in his way. 'Beell is going to do lot of wrestling this season. We would be very much pleased to get John Piening on the mat. but I don't think there is any chance of such a match taking place. Fleming. I understand, is not held in high esteem by the New York promo ters, who are afraid to give him a match because of his connection with the alleged Egeberg fake. But if Pie ming will accept contest with Beell I will bet $1,000 that Fred will sue ceed in throwing him five times in less than two hours at catch as catch can style"

Fire at Hoboken Does Half a
 Million Damage.
I WAS A SPECTACULAR BLAZE.
harted on old Ferryboat Hopatcong From Unknown Chr. .c-D., l.. and w. Railroad shc.1s and Cars
 Arc Burned.

NEW YORK, Aug. S-Inside of three. quarters of an hour fire swept away he Delaware, Lackawanna and West. arn Railroad company's terminal in Hoboken, seized two ferryboats and practically ruined them and for half all lour threatened a confiagration of the entire water front in the vicinity, in .luding the big Hamburg-American and North German Lloyd steamship locks, at which several big ships were tying So far as known no lives were .Ost
 A remarkable feature of the great blaze was that inside of twenty min utes after it's start it had seized upon the Lackawanna's terminal and swept its 600 feet of train sheds, doomlng them.
 The flames started from an unknown eause on the old wooden ferryboat Ho. patcong, which had been tied up in the open slip between the>Ham mburg docks and the Christopher street ferry slips. The fire was discovered about Il o'clock last night. It was then leapng from the bc.ler room below the main ieck through the engine room and at lacking the wooden superstructure.
 A watchman on the ferry dock turn cd in calls for the city department and also tor the Lackawanna fire brigade. Almost before the company's men could lay line of hose and before the city firemen could reach the scene the flames had leaped to the ferry office building between the piers and then to the brand new ferryboat Binghamton, which was lying in the northern slip of the Barclay street line. From these it leaped in a few seconds to the high frame structure above the waiting room, and in five minutes after the fire was first seen the entire buildings. cov- ering many acres. were barning. Twen- ty minutes after the blaze was first seen the high tower which surmounts the building crashed down all ablaze. Twenty minutes after the alarm it looked as If the entire lower part of hOOoheu- lnNiuuinE tut f1uHlrAdE E p4ctss would go.
 There were four slips with high pil- ings, and' these burned fercely and sent the fire southward into the freight piers. These had been destroyed for the most part by great fire on May %. 1904. and had just been rebuilt.
 From the waiting room the flames Ieaped into the train shed. and 90 rapid was the spread there that engines which were drawing out the cars to be ready for use in the morning had to be hurried cut Seven coscfles were left behind. but there had been time to save about thirty others.
 The two burning feTyboats were fowed out into the stream b tugs. The Hopatcong sunk later TEe Ho.atcoag when she took fire wss tied against the Hamburg-American dock g. TEe Anne licked the sides Of the per. but di1 nai set it on fire The damage is piacei ai s5ooOco.
