Apple Market Active.

While there Is still surplus of 8p-
pies in New York the market for good
stock continues steady, and there is a
porters have purchased literally in
the market here because the export
dema.d for choice stock has been 80
strong that there was not enough OF
the right kind of fruit going forward
on consignment to satisfy the de-
mand. Hamburg has been taking
quite considerable quantity this
week, $4,000 barrels going forward to
that market on three steamers. Ptae-
tically all of these we're bought out
right.
The demand here for box apples
from the northwest was active during
the week and the best western New
York stock has also been in good re.
quest at firm prices.
Notwithstanding that the embargo
on apples from points on the Delaware
& Hudson continues, holding back
shipments from northern New York,
shipments have been coming forward
to New York principally from western
New York at the rate of 40 to so cars
per day. aud the choice stock has
been we'll cleaned up each day. j. H
Killough Il Co., one OF the most re-
liable firms in the trade, consider the
out look generally favorable. Some
of the exporters fear that heavy ship
ments of American apples abroad
which have been going out in con.
stantly increasing quantities during
the past few weeks will cause foreign
markets TO Iecome depressed, aud
some of them predict that shippers
will be fortunate ii they get even a
fair margin of profit over prices rang
ing on this side. The heaviest expor.
tation on single ship on record was
made Wednesday on the Ss. Canadian
which carried 3, 900 barrels of apples
from Boston to Liverpool. - Fruit

Differen ce In Favor of I hief.

1t must be mighty uncomfortable to
be town deadbeat. The deadbeat
may not know it but he has a yellow
streak down his back that causes the
streets lights to turn pale when be
passes heneath them. Every body has
him spotted, he is distrusted by his
neighbors and the members of his own
profession refuse to associate with
him and he is treated with silent con-
tempt by the public. If he had a
spark of manhood he would leave the
town. The desdbeat thinks be has
friends but he has not. But the old
deadbeat lives on, he smokes all the
cigars and drinks all the whisky he
can bum off the saloonkeeper or the
stranger that passes through town.
He wheedles, whines and fawns to get
responsible men to go his security for
loans and then brazenly tells them to
settle the notes. There lie difference
between a deadbeat and a thief, but
it is all in favor of the thief. Blue

Some of the food River apple rails
ers have been irritated by the ssser-
tions of apple growers In other parts
of the state, that they can raise just
rs good apples as Hood River apples.
Every time this assertion is made in
public it advertises the merits Of the
Hood River apples. 1t would be hard
to think Of higher compliment
which could be paid to an article than
to have it set up as the standard Of
excellence which other producers of a
similar article claim to be able to
equal. Rural Northwest.

Reindeer Very Profitable.

The profits CT reindeer raising in
Alaska are enormous, according to the
New York Herald. and the work is
simple. A doe which will cost its
owner less than a dollar a year for
the first four years will at the end
of that time sell at the mines for $50
or 500 for meat. If it be trained
to the sled it will be worth twice as
much. They are prolific, and after
they are two years old will add fawn
to the herd every year for ten years.
On account of their timid and grega-
rious habits the reindeer are very cas-
iy herded, and one man can easily
manage one thousand head The COW
gives a teacupful of very rich milk
about the thickness of cream, which
makes delicious cheese, and mixed
with water forms a refreshing drink.
Though the Alaskan deer cannot
equal those of Lapland in speed,
pair of them can pull load of FIVE
hundred to seven hundred pounds at
the rate of thirty-five miles a day and
keep it up for weeks. They can trav-
ell at night as well as in the day, so
that during the long arctic nights
they make transportation possible,
whereas a dog team does not. They
can also be used for packing and for
riding when one becomes accustomed
to the motion.

Gun-Malxing in China.

A correspondent of the Lahore
Civil and Military Gazette visited one
Of the Chinese arsenals, and thus put
down his impressions: Finally we
were taken-amOng other places
to the great Chinese arsenal, some
way beyond treaty limits, where
every form of munition of war, from
rifles to forty-five-ton guns. was reing
made. We wandered through a will
derness of factories, covering acres
of ground, and were shown the whole
process of manufacture. And there
were powder factories and other in
situations not far away, which we had
no time to visit.
That was, perhaps, the most sig
nifcant experience of all. You may
have seen gun factories before, but
have you seen a place turning out
great guns by the dozen, and ma
chine guns by the hundred, perfect
in design and construction, run, from
coolie to head mandarin, entirely by
Chinese, and with only a couple of
Englishmen engaged solely in con-
sultative supervision? Have you seen
roomful of Chinese draughtsmen
and designers, in pigtails and blue
gowns, solemnly, stolidly and asstdu-
ously getting out the drawings for
new gun? 1t is a sight that fur
nishes food for thought. And as you
leave you ask yourself the question:
II these men can make the guns,
why may they not work them some
day?'"

Odd Facts About New York.

That New York City is the metrop-
oils of the United States and is the
second largest city in the world is
known to every one. But New York
really is much more than that. A
writer in the Search Light says:
Greater New York, the second city
of the globe, might be called the ISL
and city of the world" for it con-
tains forty-five islands, as many ISL
ands as there are States in the Union.
The city pays each year to run it's
government about one-third as much
as Uncle Sam spends to govern the
nation
New York's annual budget is great
er that that of any other five Ameri-
can cities combined
New York is over twice the size of
the Danish West Indies and is larger
than Chicago and Philadelphia COM
bined
The most crowded block in the
city is on the west side, where over
1000 people live in less than four
acres of ground.
Its population is 4,014,3O4, it's in
crease in five years being a larger
population than that of the city Of
Boston.
The Germans in New York, by
birth and parentage, would make a
city equal to Leipsic and Frankfort
on-Main combined; heAustrians and
Hungarians, Trieste and Fiume; the
Irish, Belfast, Dublin and Cork; the
Italians, Florence; the English and
Scotch, Aberdeen and Oxford; the
Poles, Poltava in Russia One-sev-

Zambesi Is Drying Up.

For some months past considerable
inconvenience has been caused to
planters and traders throughout Brit
ish Central Africa by the preCarious
condition of the Zambesi waterway,
which is gradually drying up at many
parts, says the London Express.
Some ten years ago it was possible
for the flotilla of steamers which ply
between Chinde, at the mouth of the
river, and Katungas, on the Shire trib-
utary, to maintain communication for
upward of eight months Of the year.
Even though heavy rains have fallen
throughout the Shire highlands, and
Lake Nyasa has risen several inches,
many steamers and barges are at pres
ent lying high and dry on sandbanks
in the river at various points.
The distance from Chinde to Ban
tyre-the capital of the Protectorate-
is but 975 miles, but many HUNDREDS
of tons of goods for the interior have
taken as long as three months 10

JOHN TRUMeULL.
As Man and Painter Deserving Of a
Niche in Posterity's Memory

Trumbull's art was essentially dit.
ferent from Stuart's. Without being
technically q miniature painter at his
best he was a painter in little. Many
OF his small cabinet portraits, on pan
els, in the Yale school OF fine arts,
are exceedingly beautiful, while
know Of but two llfe-siZe portraits
by him, the whole length of George
Clinton and the full bust OF Alexander
Hamilton, that are deserving of high
commentator. The nearly miniature
heads, in his small historical paint
ings, are also extremely clever, while
the composition OF these pictures is
almost faultless.
Trumbull suffers under tho burden
of being best known by his poorest
works, the four large historical paint
ings in the Capitol at Washington,
which were painted late in life, and
are OF very mediocre quality Yet he
must be remembered gratefully for
his unselfsh patriotism, as the first
American painter to paint American
historical subjects without promise OF
pecuniary reward Indeed, so poorly
was he paid for his work that he gave
his whole collection of paintings to
Yale College for an annuity Of $1,000.
upon which to exist. and in this col
lection alone can his ability be prop
erly measured. Trumbull had consid-
cradle originality of design, but was a
very unequal. though oftentimes a
very shllful draughtsman. This in
equality in his drawing was doubtless
owing to the fact that he saw clearly
ont OF hut s,s.@ -s,~. ~~~ss.s - an injury
his left eye sustained in childhood.
However as a man and as a painter
he deserves a niche in the memory Of
posterity-From Charles Henry Harris

Catches Mice With Her Tail.

Did you know that if you cut a
cats tail off she cant catch mice any
more?" asked a young woman of an
other.
Il don't see why" replied the
other, "and further, 1 can't imagine
what occasion you have had for cut
ting off cats tails to see."
II haven't cut off any cats tails,
but an accident deprived our cat of
its caudal appendage. The feline be-
came as helpless as a ship without a
rudder. When it tried to spring
upon an object it would alight far to
one side. The look of panied sur
prise on the cats features was pa
thetic. After a while it learned to
jump straight again, but it was a
long and painful experience for the
poor cat. The balance of power and
the power to balance seem to lie in
the tail of the cat. kansas City

Protect the Children.

If I pierce the young leaf of the
shoot of a plant with the finest
needle, the prick forms knot which
grows with the leaf, becomes harder
and harder, and prevents 1t from OBJ
tanning it's perfectly complete form.
Something similar takes place after
wounds which touch the tender germ
of the human soul and injure the
heart-leaves of the being of the child;
protect 1t from every rough and rude
Impression, from every touch Of the
vulgar. A gesture, look, sound
is often sufficient 10 inlet such
wounds.
The childs soul is more tender
than the finest or tenderest plant. 1t
would have been far different with
humanity il every individual in 1t
had been protected in that tenderest
age as befitted the human soul which
holds within itself the divine spark.

Like all birds. he will help himself
to any food he can find when he has
none of his own, but this cannot be
defined as stealing. Bronson Alcott
helped himself to Emerson's potatoes
when his own larder was empty, but
he did not consider it stealing. He
needed the potatoes, therefore he took
them. Likewise, Bluejay helps him
self to his neighbours stores when his
natural source of supplies is cut off.
