that the contents of the box was
grown in Marion county, packed by
Tillson G. Co., and warranted to be
as good a prune as is grown In the
whole wide world.
And now, II you were not so,
when you began to read this article,
you are probably full of prunes." !"
Tilson e. Co. last >>ar handled
about 100000 pounds of prunes
at the plant here. This year 1t is
expected the pack will reach 5,0O0,-
900 pounds, and the plant at Rose
burg belonging to the same com
pany will handle more than 2,0O0,-
900. Yesterday two cars were
loaded for shipment, one carrying
$1,000 pounds going to New York.
At present there are 40 men on
the payroll and as girls employed
In the facing room, which number
will probably be increased to So
next week.
A few calculations gives one an
idea of how much 100000 pounds
of prunes means and what 1t repre-
sents. Counting each prune as COW
ering an inch square Of space, they
would make row OF prunes from
Astoria to the New York and then
back to Chicago, or would cover
quarter section of land with solid
layer OF prunes.

"The Original Cohen" a new musical
comedy drama. opened for the first time in
Newark at the Columbia Theatre yester-
day. The author, J. Edwin owen. deserves
credit for getting out of the beaten track
of Observation-Disclosures" melodrama. In
stead of a mixed-up tumble OF adventures,
he has produced a logical, well-constructed
play each act, scene and situation having
a definite relation to the others.
Cohen's son, Charlie. is in love with
Sadie Levi. the daughter of An "ole clos :"
man across the street. Now. between the
merchant Cohen and the merchant Levi
there is a jealous rivalry that, alas,
threatens to disrupt these two young
hearts hat beat as one. so the willy lover
informs his stern parent that he has de-
cided not to marry Sadie, as he is sure the
proud old Levi would never recover from
the Disgrace which he would consider an
alliance with the despised Coheus. Then
the young creatures work the same yarn
on old Levi. The result is that both
gentle old neighbors withdraw all oppo-
sition to the marriage. The night before
the wedding Charlie visits a gambling
establishment, where he is drugged by
