TACOMA .e' thtnF Francis J. Heney graft prosecutor, was introduced to the members of the Commercial Club this afternoon before wliom he gave an address, he asked the chairman of i the meeting to find him a plnce where his back would be against the wrar,ohLbnTwhTwt;-not get hit in the back, he said. "I l had one experience which nearly cost J me my life, and 1 don t care to take any chances in the future." He was found a place and he talk ed to the members with his back resting against a solid wall where there was no chance of an assassin1 bullet taking him unawares. During his address, in which he said that he believed the great masses of the people, the bankers as well, want good government, he referred to the chilly reception he received in Portland after the Oregon land fraud cases. "In Portland during the exposition I met Governor Folk," he said, "al an entertainment in his honor, lie asked If I would be there. Ho notic ed a sort of chilled air come over the business men. The second time he noticed the same chill pass over them and he told me he found 1 wat about'as popular in Portland as he is in St. Louis." To illustrate the cause of this cool ness he referred to the San Francisco graft prosecution, saying: "As long as the prosecution was confined to the men In front, like Reuf and Sehmitz, I was upheld b the bankers and business men, but when prosecution of the men who paid the bribe money was begun. 1 became unpopular for they had many and ' Influential friends among the banks and clubs and other organiza tlons.'1 .

"Sin. e the transaction between the Booth-Kelly Lumber Company and the Oregon military road grant was purely a government transaction, I cannot Hee wherein the state has any right of interference in the lottery proposi tion of the Oregon Valley Land Com pany, wherein there is to be a draw ing upon approximately 300,000 acres of agricultural lands in Lake an Malheur counties." said Treas ure Steel, the only member of the State Land Board In the city this af ternoon. It appears that the Oregon Valley Land Company purchased SOO.OOO acres of land in Lake and Malheur counties from the Booth-Kelly com pany, and segregated 300.000 arret of the tract as agricultural, and Is attempting to place it on the market , under the lottery system, at an aver ' age of $200 per tract of from 10 to 1000 acres. E. T. Retinoid, of Guthrie. Okla., says the majority of the land is practically worthless, and proposes to appeal to the State Land Board to block the deal.

NEW YORK, Aug. 31 The bodies of seven young children, burned be yond recognition, were found today In the ruins of St, Malachl's Home at Rockaway. Firemen are seeking other bodies. Discovery of the bodies was a great shock to the police, It having been reported to them after the fire last night that all children in the institution were safe. Thnt the death list was not greater is due to the coolness of the sisters in charge of the orphanage and the prompt response of the children to the fire drill. How the seven children who per ished were separated from their com panions during the formation of the drill cannot be explained. They were lound huddled together In a room on the second floor. The records of the institution were destroyed, rendering it impossible to dentify the dead or confirm authen tic "history" of the 600 surviving children, whose paste are now com pletely blotted out.

One of the most interesting feat ures of the session were the ad dresses by great advertisers who have made fortunes through the magic of printers Ink. One of these Is Frank Van Camp, of Indianapolis, who spends two million dollars a year to advertise his milk, beans, and other food products. In telling of what advertising lias done for him, Mr. Van .Camp cites this Instance: "I made arrangements to spend $100,000 ill one week ill Greater New York alone, and before the week was out I had to cut out ad vertising and give day and night or ders to my fnctorles." That Is why Mr. Van Camp was qualified 'to speak on "Advertising, What It is, and Its Effect on the Consumer."

SOME FACTS AHOl'T THE APPLE MAItkKT IN CHINA. SPOKANE, Wash., Aug. 30. Tho Nationnl Apple Show Bulletin, issued iu connection with the second com petitive exhibition, open to the world, in Spokane, November 15 to 20, when $25,000 In cash prizes and pre miums will be awarded In 20 classes, will say In Its September number that, Oregon sent the first consign ment of commercial apples to China. Tho full text of the articlu, prepared by Ren H. Rice, secretary-manager of the show, follows: It is not generally known that the first commercial shipment of ap ples to China was mado from Grants Pass, Oregon. Hon. Henry 11. Miller was apiiointed consul general to China and stationed at Neuchwang, during the early part of the Hoxer rebellion. Owing to the disturbed condition of tho country ho did not proceed immediately to his post of duty but spent a number of months upon special assignments and a large part of the time In the southern prov inces. At the close of tho Boxer war ho proceeded to Neuchwang and took up his duties. "Consul Miller nnd his brother, Frank J. Miller, were both Interested In an apple orchard at Grants Pass. and as a result of Henry Miller's trnvels It occurred to them that there ought to be a market In China for Oregon apples If they could be prop erly packed nnd shipped. "A test shipment wns made and particular attention wns paid to the manner In which the different vari eties stood the test of travel nnd cli mate. Ono hundred boxes of all the standard varieties, with tho day of picking, packing and shipping noted, were shipped direct to Shnnghnl. "In packing, tho precaution was taken to leave the apples under the trees until tho following day. They were then taken lu upon n largo straw floor and graded by hand. Every box wns shipped within two weeks of picking nnd no apples pick ed later than the last of September. "Contrary to tho prevailing opinion among growers, tho Ben Davis stood the test of shipment and climatic con ditions better than any other vnriely nnd It was proved conclusively that It should be picked before maturity to obtain best reRults. "The Miller brothers continued to supply apples to the China trade for from seven to eight- yonra after the first consignment, with profit and sat isfaction, "Tho Chlneso like a large, highly colored and cheap apple and the Hen Davis met theso requirements belter than any other.
