"It Is no Idle statement to say that in a com paratively few years there will be 100,000 carloads of apples marketed from Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana." . ' This statement Is contained In a letter received by the managsment of the National Appl-3 Show, Inc., headed by E. F. Cartier Van Dissel, from How ard Elliott, president of the Northern Pacific railway company, forwarding a subscription of $1,000 for the rail road and $250 as a personal contribu tion to the fourth annual competitive, exposition and Enakops street carni val, November 23 to 30. ' -"The National Apple show, by bring ing logeiuer imo oeL uiijua ,u wua Iness, Is a potent factor In helping to place the apple Industry upon a sound, scientific and commercial basis," Mr. Elliott says. "Tha day of the commer cial orchard has come, not alone In the west, but all over the country and men are giving the same careful and thorough attention to the production of apples that is devoted to the making of sjeel or to any other business that ls conduced 'With skill . and Intelli gence. ; "The study and attention and care given to the production of fruit by th-3 grower, must, .as the production increases, be supplemented by efforts for publicity as to the many uses of the apple, by combined efforts for wider markets and by additions to the present facilities for storage and trans portation.; ;,; .; . . "Therefore, It will be necessary foi the apple grower to do what the grs'n grower ihas done. This means that as the production Increases tha grower must have facilities at his home or chard, at the nearby station and throughout the country to properly car for his crop to receive the htst market prices." '. . Spokane, Wash., Sept. 14. "Profes sor" F. F. Neltzel, who was arrested in Spokane several months ago on the charge of "fortune telling," and at tracted nation wide attention by hia plea that as a duly ordained niinUt :v of the National Astrological society of the United States he was practis ing a legitimate profession, was found guilty of vagrancy by a Jury In the Spokane county superior court. At torney George Crandall, said to have been retained by the national organi zation, which has headquarters at St. Paul, Immediately served notle on Judge Sullivan of an appeal to tlw supreme court. The law of Washing ton doeB not recognize astrology as a science or religion. Neltzel was ar rested by a detectlvs connected with the Spokane police department after he "had mapped out the officer's future and warned him of "a dark halr?d wo man," and 'a light haired man," who, he said, "are regular trouble factor ies." Neltzel denied the officer's story, saying that he mereiy told what was revealed to him by the stars, accord ing to a religion that has been prac tised for ages. - ,v Spokane. Wash.. Sept,, 14. Placer i miners working at the old Florence camp, in northern Idaho, are dally tak ing gold coins of $2.0 and $.00 de nominations, minted in 1832, American and French silver pieces and lead bul lets such is were used in the days when the muzzle-loading horse pistol was the popular side arm, from the clean up of the sluice boxes on the Hainkson-Champlain ground. W. A. Patterson, a mining engineer, and F. P. Lint, owner of a group of claims on Marshall lake, who return ed from the camp yesterday, report that most of the ground Is returning as high as $10 in gold dust to the cubic yard. Virgin gold was the principal medium of exchange In the days when Florence had the name of helng the richest and toughest mining camp In the northwest, and It Is thought that the rich finds are the result of the dust falling from the scales and sifting throuRh the cracks In the floors of the saloons, gaming houses and dance halls In the early '60's. 's While-Patterson and Lint were In camp the mic;rs were working on'( ground formerly occupied by a gam bling house and dance ball, which fig ured In some of the most tragic events in the history of northern Idaho, be-1 fore the advent of a railroad In the ' western country. Gun fights were of daily occurrence and few n!gts passed without one or more being slashed In bowie knife duels. ( . , , Veteran prospectors and placer min ers now living at Lewlston and other parts of that district, who flocked to Florence when the first-gold was found declared years ago that th? richest diggings were where the camp town was located; hut, as no water was available until a strain pump was in stalled recently for conveying wafr to the sluices, no attempt was made to mine the ground. MEAT FOR MUSIC. The Way Haydn's "Ox" Minuet Came to Get That Title. Then ls no sensible reason for the titles attached to many pieces of mu sic, some of them even classical se lections. Most generally they are placed there as an attempt of some publisher to "boom" his stock and sell bis goods. Then again, some peculiar titles may have their origin In Inci dents about as Important as tbe fol lowing: - . ' : Haydn one day received a visit from a batcher who said that himself and his daughters were admirers of Haydu's music and as the young woman was soon to be married he made bold to ask that the composer write a minuet for her wedding. ; Kind 'Papa Haydn',' consented, and in a few days the man of meat obtained his music. Not long afterward Haydn was surprised to hear this same min uet played under his window. On looking out he saw a band of musi cians forming a. ring around a large ox. tastefully decorated with flowers. Soon the butcher came up and pre sented the ox to Haydn, saying that for such excellent music be thought be ought to ' make tbe composer a present of the best ox in his posses sion.

"Viewed exclusively as a dramatic fabric. 'Othello' Is not only the best of Shakespeare's plays, but the best play In the ' English language." says Wil liam Winter tn the Century. "No sto ry could be more simple, direct fluent and elementally tragic, but with what marvelous skill the poet has told It with what ingenuity of Invention, with what vibrant vitality of continuous action, with what ample and superb drawing of character, what prodigious volume of feeling, what tumult of surging and conflicting passion and what perfection of poetic style!"
