OREGON FRUITS ARE
WORTH MILLIONS
Crop This Year the Largest on
Record.

On the basis OF reports from eoun-
ty inspectors, the value Of oregon's
fruit crop this year is officially esti-
mated at s4.275,135. This figure.
far in excess OF any pervions year, Is
based on amounts actually received
by growers. and represents an In
crease of SO per cent over the fruit
crop valuation OF last year.
To the prices now paid for Ore
gon fruits is partly due the increase
in this years total, but the larger
acreage set out In orchards in re-
sponse to eastern demand is also
a factor. The heavy paintings OF
the last few years are beginning to
bear. and the further increase In the
value OF the crop will pobably be
very rapid in the future.
The apple crop forms the largest
item in the list with total value OF
.s1.42s,OOO. Prunes paid Oregon
growers this year s1,5sO.625; pears.
peaches and cherries all In excess OF
$3.50, 900, and Strawberries over
s4OO. 900. Oregon pears this year
have sold at Wholesale in the east

1t was big sisters wedding day, and

Finally mother became eXasperated.

They Had Their Homo In Italy With
the Boreias and Medicis.
Perfumed gloves have contributed
largely to the bright and cruel side Of
romance, of fact and of fiction. They
had their home in Italy, the home of
the Borgias and De- Medicis, and 1t is
said, with how much truth will never
be known, that many an untimely
death was caused by wearing pcrfum-
ed gloves whose scented palms con-
cealed deadly poison. 1t seems to
have been a favorite pastime of the
notorious Alexander vi. and of his
more notorious son, Caesar Borgia, to
invite friend to dine, show him every
attention as guest, present him with
a beautiful pair of perfumed and poi
soned gloves and next day send flowers
to his funeral, accompanied by little
note. polite. but firm, requesting the
Immediate transference of all the prop
erty of the deceased to the Golfers of
the Borgias.
There is an interesting and very ugly
story of a famous poisoner of the fif-
teenth century wlro confessed under
the water cure to having murdered for
a consideration about fifteen people by
means of poisoned gloves. The poison
she employed was so slow in taking
effect that for years she remained I'M

THE GREAT RACHEL.
Fondness of the Famous Actress For
Scarfpins

Fondness of the Famous Actress For
Scarfpins.
A rather comical story relating to the
great Rachel and at one time her de-
voted admirer, Prince Demidoff, runs
this way:
1t seems that upon the occasion of
the princes visits to the charming
actress she would often greet him in
playful mood and while criticising his
attire. which was the special object Of
his thought, would draw from his
necktie the pin which secured 1t, a
cameo, topaz, ruby or whatever it
might chance to be, and place it in
her pincushion or upon her corsage.
This habit greatly amused the prince,
1t seemed so childish and such mis-
chievous act, and it really added to
her charm in his eyes. One day, how
ever, lie called wearing sort Of stock,
and consequently had no jewel.
The observant maid noticed that
there was no pin In the tie of Demi-
doff, and when she announced him to
his mistress mentioned the fact. ut
Is the prince, but he wears stock"
"Then say l am out" replied Rachel.
Finding himself refused an inter-
view, the prince set about learning the
real reason. 1t nightly amused him.
and thereafter he never appeared with
out the bauble that had always proved
the sesame to the great actress pres

a tornado and shakes the earth and all
that is on the earth, singing, binding

lines are prominent features which the
citizens must grasp when the Dora
clutches them, and they grope their
way through the whirling dust and the
promiscuous missiles flying in the
darkened air. But the bora goes as
quickly as it comes, and when it is
gone the people simply eXcavate them
selves out of the drift and think no
more about the winged demon, which
has left no trail whatever in the re-
stored serenity OF the secured sky.

Invalid Jury List.

Is Jones county to have an inva-
lid jury list during the next year,
unless new one is made in Janu-
airy? 1t is if Judges Miller and Nc
Henry of Polk county are right in
their Interpretation OF the law, and
nothing further is done. Not long
ago Attarney General Byers address
ed communication to all the dis
trict judges in Iowa, warning them
that they must urge the board of
supervisors by order of the court
to draw the jury for the year
1908. Most of the counties Of the
state have done so already on the or
ders of the courts. Judge Miller
has addressed q communication to
the Attorney General, in which he
urges that he does not consider it
safe to permit the boards of supervi-'
sors to select the jury list until jan
uary, 1908, according to the pecu-
liararities of the statute, as that
statute provides that the jury list
selected shall stand as the regular
jury list for county for the year for
which it is selected" 1t appears
that under the construction placed
upon the law by the Polk county
judges, that the jury would have to
be actually selected in 1908, that is,
the jury that is expected to serve
during that year. OF course in
those counties where the selections
have already been made, a new Sc
lection can be made, which will fill
the requirements of the law, and
obviate the illegality Of the list pre-
pared in November. Monticello Ex-

A touching anecdote, associated with
n picture in the National gallery at
Edinburgh. is told by an English lady
in her book, "Potpourri From Surrey
Garden" She writes: Several pic
lures stand out with peculiar interest,
especially the life sized Gainsborough
of the young Mrs. Grahame. She sat
for the picture as bride, but before
it came home she was dead and her
husband had gone to the wars. When
he came back he never had the cour-
nge to open the case which contained
his young wifes portrait On his
death, many long years after it was
painted, it was opened by his heirs,
and inside the case was the little
white slipper she had left with the
painter to help him to finish his pic
ture. The portrait was given to the
Edinburgh gallery, and the slipper
was kept by the family.

The Poet Shelley.

Shelley lived with ardor among
IDEAS. aspirations and passions in
which there was something at once
irresponsible and abstract. He follow
ed every impulse, without choice or re-
straint, with the abandonment of n
leaf in the wind. ooh, lift me as n
wave, Il leaf, a cloud!" was his prayer
to the west wind and to every influ-
ence. Circumstances meant so little
to him that he was unconscious of the
cruelty Of change to sentiment, and
thus of the extent of his cruelty to
women. He aimed at moral perfec-
tfon. but was really of a perfect aes-
.thetic selfishness. He was full of pity
and generosity and desired the liberia
tion and uplifting of humanity, but
humanity was less real to him than
his own witch of Atlas. He only touch.
ed human action and passion closely
in n single one of his works, and he
said of 1.-The Cenci:" 81 don't. think
