| Papaia can best be eaten with lit

lemon juice TO suit the TASTE. Ii is ar

be made into a sherbet One Of the
treats at the table during a trip across
the Pacific Ocean is the papaIa, which
is served on the Oriental and Austria
liar boats after leaving Honolulu
where a large supply is always taken
on board. Papaia trees bear the year
round.
The alligator pear. avocado or palta
pear-it IS sometimes known by all
three names-also grows on a tree,
but only during the summer months
Horticulturists are trying 10 do away

deal as a dessert. Il is particularly nu-
trftious and has the flavor somewhat

Another reason for Mr.. Higgins visit

Fruits from Hawaii, particularly tn,
alligator pear and the Papaia, are TO D
Introduced TO the people of Portland
Both varieties are delicious in flavor
and contain, many medicinal properties
For this purpose J. z. Higgins, hor
ticulturist OF the Hawaii Agricultural
Experiment Station at Honolulu, ar
rived in the city yesterday with sever
al tons of the fruits. Today samples
Of the pear and papaias viii be served
at the regular luncheon TO members OF
the Commercial Club. Until the sup
ply is exhausted these products Of tbs
Hawaiian Islands viii be on sale at the
fruit stores of Portland.
These two fruits grow in abundance
in the islands. For some reason, prin-
cipa1Iy because the impression has pre-
vailed that they could not be shipped
TO advantage, neither the pear nor the
papaia has had a market in this coun-
try. People in the islands have imag-
med that the fruit would not stand
the long journey from Honolulu 10 the
Coast. This, however, has proven 10
be untrue
1t is this mission that has brought
MIR. Higgins 10 Portland He viii in
and devise ways and means whereby
the shipments can be made regularly
in the future TO ali cities near the
shores of the Pacific ocean The ship
119ent which he brought with him ar
rived here in perfect condition, al
though the fruits We're picked II days
ago. From Honolulu TO San Francisco
the samples were kept in cold storage,
49, hon n
special care.
Mr.. Higgins is also investigating the
best methods TO be used in packing the
pears and papaias. He VIII determine
whether the fruits will stand the trip
best in cold storage or on the decks OF
the steamers where they VIII have the
benefit of The open air. Also whether
rice hulls or crirnpad strawboard viii
furnish the best results for packing.
Papaia. pronounced pa-pai-a, is one
IF the greatest fruits in the world for
the human stomach. Il is rich IN
vegetable pepsin and aids digestion in
! number of ways. All parts Of the
oapaia tree contain a certain amount
IF pepsin. The people Of Hawaii have
! habit when they get a tough beef
steak of wrapping il in papaia leaves
overnight. The next morning il is
ender as the finest sirloin TO be had in
he market The meat absorbs the /
,epsin from the leaves and as result /
becomes tender.
There are number Of varieties Of
"a oaia. From one kind an extract OF
ne vegetable pepsin is taken and put
10 in tablets and may be had for in
digestion in any drugstore in all parts
T the world.
The papaia grows on trees and Is as
arge as good sized cantaloupe-

BARGAINS IN
MEDICINE.

\ woman once wrote US
that she was not going to
buy SCOTS Emulsion any
more because it cost too
much. Said she could get
some other emulsion for less
money. Penny wise and
pound foolish. SCOTS Emul-
sion costs more because It IS
worth more-costs more to
make. We could make
SCOTS Emulsion cost less BY
using less oil. Gould take
less care In making IT, too.
If we did, however, SCOTS
Emulsion wouldn't be the
standard preparation of cod
liver oil as It IS to-day.

Accident at Alton End
ed Kings Wild West
Exhibition.


AS a result of the accident at the
wild west show at Alton on July A
the show has disbanded, and a large
part OF the paraphernalia has been
attached and is in the hands Of Mar
shal Darrough. The goods were seiz-
ed at The suit Of Mrs. Florence Mon
roe Of Cleora, whose leg was broken
when the seats gave way, and who
has brought suit for $4,000 damages,
The attachment was served yesterday
by Deputy Arthur Chamberlain.
The show belongs to w. j. King, an
old resident OF the territory He
managed to get the more valuable
Of his belongings out Of the territory
before Mrs. Monroe's attorneys could
draw up the necessary papers. The
horses we're all taken away; all that
remained to levy on were tents, seats,
ticket wagon, and few other odds
and ends, and 5000 of Kings money
in the bank. This has now identified
up until Mrs. Monroe's suit can be
heard
A number of other persons we're in
jured in the accident, and some Of
them may file suits, but there will be
very little left for them.

GIRL BASEBALL PLAYER.
Champion of Her Sex Who Has q
Great Record as a
Thrower

Four years ago Miss Marion Rey-
nolds was the champion female bail
player of Maine, if not of the United
States. She was born on a farm, says
Modern Women, and was one OF a
large family, mostly boys, all Of whom
were noted local baseball players.
As she grew to maturity her services
were frequently required to make up
the regular number for team. and in
this way she got such practice that she
eQualled any Of them on the team.
A claim was made by the friends OF
a young lady In a New York college as
the champion because Of her throwing
ball 1S1 feet. But at Belfast, Me-,
Miss Reynolds threw the regulation
ball. notwithstanding a strong wind
was blowing, a distance Of 1927 feet
The measurement was made by the
managers and several doubters. After
the exhibition they tried her as a
catcher. pitcher and batter. and she
could outplay them all.
Miss Reynolds is Of medium height
and graceful form. Her manners are
pleasing and unassuming. She dresses
with taste. She has played ball in
many cities. but mas retired from the
game and is now teaching school,

Local Paper Evidently
in a Peculiar Posi-
ton

On March the Leader Of this city
inaugurated contest for new sub.
scribers, advertising that the prize
would be $500 piano, which would be
awarded TO the contestant having the
most votes July 4. July 4has passed, and
now theannouncement is made that
the piano will not be awarded until
some time later, as the contest has
caused the Leader a loss Of money, in
stead OF gain.
Miss Betty Webb Of this city has
worked hard for the prize, and on July
4 was ahead In the standing She se-
cured subscriptions from many friends
among tie business men Of the city in
order that she might win the prize
And, now that she has won it, the
time is extended
OF course this isn't The Chleftain's
business. The Leader, however, has
all along been securing advertising
from the merchants on the strength
OF the statement that that paper has
far more subscribers than The Chief
tain. On March / the Leader was
printing 1880 copies. The Weekly
Chieftain on July printed ], $50 copies.
Now II the Leader has a larger circu-
lation than The Chieftain it has added
over 600 subscribers since March /.
And il it has added that number, il
ought to be able to pay for the piano
Miss Webb was told, however, that
the Leader has been losing, and there
fore could not afford to award the
prize. It looks, therefore, as If the
Leader has two stories one for the
merchants Of a tremendous circula-
tion; one for the contestants, Of a
losing proposition.
Meantime, it is well to bearin mind
that since the consolidation The Chief
tain has a circulation Of 1850 copies,
and can prove it. Also, when The
Chieftgin offers a prize, it is promptly
paid

The club heartily endorsed both
these plans as outlined by Mr.. Riddle.
1t was decided to hold meeting
Thursday afternoon at 4:30 O'Clock, at
which it is hoped there will be an at
tendance of the lot.owners, in order
that plans for the sale may be fully
decided upon. In the meantime the
board of directors will meet Monday
morning at and draw up a set Of
rules under which the sale may be
conducted. A committee consisting
Of A. +. Churchill and Dr. A. M.
Clinkscales was appointed to secure
the attendance Of the prorerty-owners
at Thursdays meeting.
President Riddle was also instructed
to appoint committee Of live to
make arrangements for the special
train 1t win be the duty OF those
who make this trip to advertise Vim
ita in every way, and especially the
lot sale, for it Is planned TO send the
excursion out before the sale. The
excursion, according to present plans,
will leave here about the last of Au-
gust, and the lot sale viii be held In
the early fall, probably about the first
OF October.
After discussing these matters at
some length, the club adjourned.
There will be no meeting next Fri

BAD TRICK OF GOOD TRADE

Litigation.

'The most serious evil of modern

abuse Of personal injury litigation.
The words are used, not by the en-
ployers who suffer through this abuse,
but by the Green Bag, a magazine pub

Practically the entire current numbeI
Is devoted to this one subject.
One OF the writer's. in discussing the
notorious runners, tells Of case in
which the day after a street car COLI

Office in favor of passengers. Drug
stores and barrooms are subsidized; it
is carefully noised abroad that SO and
SO is good for S25 dollars if a safe case

A case in most Of our large cities
must wait at least two years before it

wins pay for those that he loses.
Even a handsome verdict is pared
