A LEMON FOR THE BANANA.
Legends Declare That 1t Was Eden's
Forbidden Fruit.

There exists a legend relative to the
Christian inhabitants of the east, that
they believed the banana to be the
tree of the source of good and evil. in
a bunch of whose fruit the serpent
that tempted Eve hid itself, and they
add that when Adam and Eve became
ashamed of their nakedness they COW
cred themselves with the leaves of this
plant Beyond all doubt this legend
had some influence. upon the minds of
those early botanical classifers who
designated two species of the plant by
the names of Musa paridisiaca and
Musa apientium-Fruit of Paradise,
Fruit of knowledge.
The origin of the banana is given as
India, at the foot of the Himalayas,
where it has been cultivated since
remotest antiquity. Its origin in the
New World is doubtful as the
origin of the American Indian. Natural
to Asia and Africa, where more than
twenty distinct species of the genus
are known, it is said to have been
brought first to America from Spain,
early in the sixteenth century, and
planted in the island of San Domingo,
whence its spread was rapid through
out the surrounding islands and the
mainland. This has never been au-
chemically established, however, and
some authorities include the banana
among the articles that formed the
base or the 1000 supply OF the meas
and the Aztecs before the arrival of
the Spaniards. Certain it is that
throughout the whole of meridional
America there is a strong tradition
that at least two species of the plan
tain were cultivated long before the
coming of the Europeans. Further
more, it is singular that in all the
languages indigenous to the region
where the banana appears that plant
has a special name, not proceeding
from the conquerors, as was the case
with the names of many other plants,
animals, and various articles intro
duced into America after its discovery.
Grown over the entire extent of the
meridian of the earth, the fruit of the
banana today forms, in large part, the
principal food of a majority of the
peoples living under the tropical zone.
Several species and numerous varieties
of the plant appear throughout trop-
zeal America, but it is cultivated for
commercial purposes, in appreciable
quantities only along the Atlantic bor-
der, from southern Mexico to Colon
bia, in Jamaica, Cuba, San Domingo,
and the Bahamas, the far western
markets of the United States being
supplied from the Hawaiian Islands
and Mexico's South Pacific coast

MATTY,s LAST BIG GAME.
Old Master Hurt His ARM Saturday,
But Game to Core.

Boston. Oct. 16.-The climax of a
season of baseball came today in the
eighth game of the worlds champion
ship series between the New York
Giants and the Boston Red Sox. At
stake on one game We're the title of
worlds cham pions and the big end of
the players purse, the greatest in
baseball history. Two days ago the
National Leaguers were battling in
the last ditch; today it is the Red Sox
who have their backs to the wall. The
Giants believed their rush would not
be stopped today. The Red Sox plan
ned a more careful battle than those
they fought in the two previous games.

RAILROADS FIND

Says Speed Is Demanded By
Public. Has Seen Compan-
les Sorely Tried

Geo. w. Wadsworth Of Beaverton,
Ore, is for the railroads as against
the public. He has seen the roads
tried beyond the bonds of patience
he says and declares that the acct
dents are due in a large measure to
the public's demand for speed. But
LET George talk for himself He
writes:
I'VE the greedy public demand
fasttrains and the railroad be damned.

will bear me out.
For two years was in the en-
ploy of the Pullman company oper-
ating between Portland, Ore, and
Omaha. Neb., and have reason to
know something of how the public
is treated.
II have seen the crews and officials
of the largest system of railroads in
the world put to the most exacting
tests of patience and endurance to
please an unreasonable travelling
public. 1t doesn't seem to matter
how much you give the passenger
more, more. is the constant demand.
''There isn't business institution
in America today that gives more
for the money than the railroads.
''Do we realize the cost in lives
and money that makes it possible
for US to ride in perfect safety, with
block signals every mile of the way

The new primary law has been put

which can be remedied. Itisnot ex-
