One working girl said she would take a good long nap the next morning instead of turning out at 0 o'clock Half of the answers allowed a longing for foreign travel, from which it becomes evident that alntut the worst thing that could happen to this country would be the enrichment of everybody. The other half Jumke airy promiHcs of char it y and philanthropy, promises that would be forgotten in most cases if for tune should be thrust upjn the persons making them, for nothing Is more cer tuin limn the certainty that a person who will do nothing for charity and philanthropy when in moderute circnm stances would do little if suddenly thruHt Into the possession of great wealth. Perhaps the truest answer was em bodied in throe words "Id grow richer" suid one man who was either a philosopher or an exceedingly frank per son. That Is what nine-tenths of the rich people do or try to do, and that is whnt nine-tenths of the poor people would do if fortune's wild wheel were suddenly to lift them into afliuence. Airy resolutions would wither as Jonah's gourd withered in the sand and the sun of the desert, and the deeper influences of human nature would make of ttiese people just such characters as wealth bus mude of the majority of people when suddenly thrust npon them.

Weather : The paHt wetk bus been cooler than the preceding week, the mean temperature being from 64 to OS degrees, as agiiiiiMt (IS to 72 degrees of the week belore. Cloudy and cool wcuther prevailed on the Oth, ilh and 7th, w ith a sprinkle of rain in the north western jiortion and rain on the north west coast on the 5th and ttth. Crops: Fall wheat and oats harvest continues and the general opinion is that both are turning out better thun was expected. The most serious com plaints in regard to late spring grain which will hardly make more than tU) to 70 per cent, of an average crop ; posBi- bly not that much. Kxcellent reports are rendered concerning the bay crop, both as to quality and quantity. The warm weather of ten days ago caused the fruit to ripen ; and now the apples, peaches and plums are coming into market. The codlin moth and hop louse iiave been developed under the influence of the warm weatiier, and spraying is being generally resorted to. The bops have been remarkably clean so far this year and many growers hoped to secure their crop without Bpraying; but for clean bops spraying will have to be practiced. Grasshoppers are liecoming numerous in Jackson county, and they are doing some damage. In parts of Douglas county some of the fruit is fall iiig to the ground without apparent cause. The crop conditions are not all discouraging, rather the reverse, and as a rule the farmers are pleased with their cro. . KAKTKltN OKKOON. Weather: The week opened with very warm weather ; but the tempera ture fell on the 7th, since when it has been cooler ; the mean for the week var ied from 08 to 72 degrees, as against to 78 degrees, of last week ; a sprinkle of rain fell in the northeastern counties durine the week : no other rain full is reported. Crops: Harvesting the fall wheat, oats and barley is in progress in ttie Columbia river valley ; east and south of the Blue mountains, baying is being finished, while grain harvest will not begin for two weeks yet. The warm weather was injurious to the late sown oats and wheat; but beneficial to the fall grain. There appears to be pros pect for a general increase in the total grain product, due to the increased acreage, though the yield per acre will not be up to thut of 181)1 . From special reports it is estimated that Wasco county will ship 4(10,000 bushels of w heat, an increase of 100,000 bushels, the wheat is averaging 15 bushels per acre. Sherman county will ship ubout again as much, the average is 18 to '2'.' bushels per acre. Gilliam county will ship about one-half million bushels; in Morrow county the wheat is averaging from 8 to 15 bushels per acre, and there will be for sUlpment about 800,000 bushels. In Umatilla county the es timates are variable; but it can be said that full wheat will averuge for the county 22 bushels per acre and spring about one-half that much. The county shipped in 1801, 1,800,000 bushels and this year will ship about two million bushels. No reliable estimates can be mude for Union, Wallowa, Baker and the interior counties. The grain is not in such good condition in Union and Maker counties as it was two weeks ago; the latter two counties will Rhip ubout 800,000 Imshols, possibly more, the hay crop is good throughout all the counties and the fruit prospects con tinues to be good. The following from tlin Chl-'ago Prairie Farmer" of July S'-'d, is given to show what the treon Vent Her Kiiremi is doine to advertise Oregon s climate and crops at. the world's fmr.

"Uncle" Rhoads Fish came in the of fice today and made us a pleasant call. He carried with him an empty basket and was in his usual excellent spirits. Uncle Rhoads' liver is never out of or der, and in fact it would be as difficult to conceive of him minus bis highly contagious laugh as without the generous quantity of flesh which makes his portly figure a fair sight for sore eyes at all times. He is not sensitive about his color, though Africa's sun never shone upon darker skin. The hue of ebonv is his, save where Father Time has com menced the bleaching process with his curly beard. "Well, uncle, what are you driving at?" "I'm working across the river now, making butter from twenty head of cows and selling it in town." "And how are you doing?" ery good, oonsidenn'. ou see, grass is gittin' a little scant now, and butter ain't so plentiful as it used to be So, there no sense in sellin' it at thirty cents a roll. I just told 'em that, and they said, 'how much do you want?' Forty cents ain't any too much, says I That's all they was to it, no arguin' nor nothin', they just handed it right out to me. When I work for a man I like to work right np to the handle. An' there ain't nothin' I can't learn, either. If I was put to work in the office here, I'd soon learn Low to set up your news paper. Some day I'll come in and watch your machinery work. I'm always in terested in everything new and catch on to it without any trouble. But I must be going now. Well good day," and with a kindly flourish, be disappeared out the door. Uncle will always be a welcome visitor at Thk Chronicle. Hard times will never pinch nor bile ac cumulate, when Uncle Rhoads' good humored face is visible. Kla(ley Nw. I.aat of tha Peach Flam. Mr. J. A. McDonald, of the Earl Fruit Company, was at Mosier yester day and loaded two-thirds of a car of peach plums. The car will be finished at The Dalles, and sent east tonight. This makes the fifth car of fruit sent out from here by the Earl company, all peach plums, whVh will be the last shipment of that kind of fruit. The next fruit handled will be the Italian, Bradshaw and Hungarian or Gross prunes, the first of which will mature in about three weeks. There will be a large quantity of these for ship ment, and the Earl fruit cars will be on hand for them. The experience of our fruit growers w ith the Earl Fruit Company has been highly satisfactory and better prices have been realized through their agency thus far than ever before. Ieath of LUlputlan. Thursday last there arrived at Adams, rejiorts the Fast Oregonian, an old man named Welch, with an unpretentious tented show. He had a bear, a couple of white owls and an attraction that really was curiosity, a little woman who weighed 30 pounds, was 32 Inches in stature, and had lived 33 years. Al though a dwarf, she was not deformed in any manner, her body being propor tionately developed. The little woman was a sufferer from sickness, and Friday night a hemorrhage occurred that caused her death. A somewhat sad and pain ful story then came to light. Her name was Miss M. L. Welch, and el.e w as the old man's daughter. lie had sensi tively kept her concealed all her life until within the last two months, when. being no longer able to rani a livelihood, he was compelled to exhibit her. They left Idaho, where they lived, and had since been traveling. As the father, who is 70 years old, had no funds, the countv authorities were notified and will tiike in hand the- burial of the un- tortumito little creature. Moslrr . Peach plums are being shipped from here with good results. It whb a little cool yesterday and threatened to rain but this was about all. The corn growers would tike to have had ft good shower. Wo may be blessed with it vet. I wish to announce that there will be a cauiptneeting at this place, commend ing Thursday evening, Aug. 10th. It will be held on Mr. l.uuib's place near the Mosier cruek bridge, ft little over half a mile from the station. Atl are cordially Invited to attend. IX. Some of the Dufur sports were out on a hunting: trip in the neighborhood of Kingiley yesterday. The tail grain Is well tilted. The yield, both in quantity and quality, will le above the average. Our genial postmaster, Mr. Kelley, is in Portland this last two or three weeks. We miss his smiling countenance. Harvesting has commenced in this neighborhood. There are several reap ers running. The headers will start next Monday. Kingsley is feeling the effects of the dull times. The hotel and stables at this place failed to open their doors last week for want of patronage. So you see Kingsley is in the sw im. The sudden change in the weather on Saturday from ninety degrees to sixty is very beneficial to the spring grain, which also promises well. The straw is short but very plump heads. Uno. Kingsley, Aug. 7, 1893.

"The Duke of Veragua a few years ago," said a widely traveled American, "was regarded as rich. He had a com fortable income And a large estate. It is not true that he gambled his money away at cards or other games of chance. He lost his fortune at the Paris Exposi tion of 1889. lie opened an arena near the exposition grounds, and made prep arations to give real Spanish bull fights on an elaborate scale. At first it drew fairly well, but after the first week he did not take in enough to pay half his expenses. The result was when the ex position closed the duke found himself practically a bankrupt.
