loyal spirit by attending.

front entrance, and Mr. Newell gave
to the visitors nuts and apples. The
nuts raised by this company are large,
and the meat Is firm and unusually
sweet. Mr. Newell also had on exhi
bition Illustrations of apples and nuts
that ho has In stock.
Milwaukee Grange exhibit waa In
charge of O. R. Freytag and J. I.
Johnson. The fruit and vegetable ex
hibit was from the Milwaukee Orange
Pair held two weeks ago. All of the
exhibit waa not brought to Canby. and
It was a disappointment to many that
It wag not. The canned fruits, jellies
and needlework, which attracted so
much atentlon at the grange fair,
were not there. Mr, Freytag had a
large display of fruits and vegetables,
many of which took the first premhim
at the fair at Milwaukee. J. J. John
son, of Milwaukee, had on exhibition
Mammoth squashes, citrons, water
melons, musk melons, and many va
rieties of vegetables. The Lambert
cherry In a large glass Jar, placed In
preservative by O. K. Freytag, attract
ed a great deal of attention. The cher
ries were large and firm. The grain
exhibit was also good. Julius Rroetje.
of Milwaukee, had on exhibition sweet
potatoes raised on his place at Oak
Grove. The peppers and onions rais
ed on the Heltkemper place, were also
among the exhibits. Mr. Freytag, Mr.
Johnson and J. H. Dowilng deserve
credit In the interest they took to
bring the exhibit so far, and had no
assistance In their work In arranglag
the exhibit. .A large flag was also
among the decorations.
The Enterprise office of this city,
was In charge of Miss Nan Cochran,
of the Enterprise staff, and more than
a thousand people registered. In this
booth was a large display of hook
work, posters, magailncs. stationery,
and other printed work Issued from
the office In Oregon City. Taper,
magazines and blotters were distrib
uted to the public. The boot with
the background of American flag,
Oregon grape and autumnal beauty,
with bright colored pennants, formed
a very attractive corner.
One of the pleasing sights In the
building was the floral exhibit in the
northeast corner of the auditorium.
The flowers were the property of Mrs.
William Knight, Mrs. V. R. Porter
and Mrs. V. Kesselrltig. Mrs. Knight
and Mrs. Porter were awarded pre
miums.
Along the wall of the building In
close proximity to the (lower exhibit
was the general exhibit of fruits and
vegetables. Every day during the fair
this exhibit was admired by hun
dreds of people. The rosy cheeked
apples and the other delicious fruits
and melons made one wish that he
could help himself. The apples and
grain of . J. Lewis In this collection
were excellent. Mr. lyowis in his col
lection of grain, which was used for
the background, had the white and
ml wheat, two bunches of gray oats,
two bunches white oats, two bunches
timothy grass, two bunches orchard
The southeast corner of the build

F. Hampton, of Canby, had a large
display of plums, prunes, dry and
fresh, vegetables that covered about
ten feet of space. Mr. Hampton Is
one of the few of Canby's farmers
who brought fruit and vegetables for
exhibit Many of the farmers of
Canby who did not exhibit fruit and
vegetables are already planning to
do so on a large scale at the fair
next year.
Portland, wa well represented by C,
LeNolr. Many handsome pianos and
organs were on exhibition, and dally
musical selections were given by Mr.
NeNoIr on the $500 Kuphonla piano
player piano, which attracted large
crowds. Mr. leNoIr, who pottscso a
tenor voice of rich quality, favored
the visitors at the fair with many of
his selections, which were greatly ap
preciated. He was accompanied by
this musical Instrument, which beau
tifully blended with his voice. Sov

with nutuninlu beauty.
Fisher, Thorsen Company, of
Portland, had on exhibition In the
booth adjoining that of Sherman Clay,
Avcnarlua Carbollneum. a German
wood preserver. Many of the farmers
who are engaged In the raising of
fancy poultry, visited this booth, and
souvenirs were presented by Robert
llson, but the demand was so great
that the supply was soou exhausted.
Mrs. A. J. Ixwls, of Maple Iaw,
was awarded the special first premium
for the best exhibit of canned fruit
and vegetables canned In the Economy
fruit jars, and Mrs. C. V. Swallow, of
the same place was awarded the sec
ond premium on canned fruit and
canned vegetables In the Economy
Jars.
W. P. Welsmamlel, who drew the
plans of the building and presented
them to the Association, had a force
of men, who understood tluir work,
and the building, although a trltle
dark, was a big Improvement on that
of last year, when the building at
Gladstone had no floor, and many of
the exhibits were damaged by the
dust. The booths were partitioned
off, and gates used at the utnince.
The counters, which were not In evi
dence last year, were also planned
by Mr, Welsniandol, and gave to thv
exhibitor a chnuce to display his goods
to a great advantage this year. The
well, with Its pure water, waa also
one of the conveniences on the
ground. As the ground Is new the
dust was a bad feature, but this Is
to be overcome as the Intention of the
Association Is to pluiit the ground In
grass by next year's fair.

The booth adjoining Mr. Kocher was
occupied by Burmelster a Andresen,
who had a large display of phono
graphs, and who favored the visitors
with many selections. All day the
booth was thronged with the crowds
who came to listen to latest selec
tions. Mr. Andresen was in charge
of the booth, and made several good
sales during his stay at the fair
grounds. Souvenir pins w-ere present
ed to the visitors. The Columbia and
Victor machines were on exhibition
and the musical selections proved to
be one of the chief attractions in the
big exhibit building.
. C. T. Bates, another of Canby's
young business men, who took an ac
tive Interest in the County Fair, had
one of the most attractive booths in
the building. The booth was In red,
and with the display of paints, break
fast foods, groceries, etc., formed a
center of attraction to the visitors as
they came into the main entrance.
The Juvenile department was near
the center of the building and occu
pied a large space. The seeds-from
which the vegetables were raised by
the young people, were given to them
by County School Superintendent T. J.
Gary, who has been active In Inter
esting these young people In the fair.
Many took advantage of Mr. Gary's
kindness, and their exhibit was a
credit to any community.

Winter passed Into old oblivion'
grave, and new spring season was
ushered In.
Summer birds oon returned,
Their sweetest Hole were heard
ugaln,
Wild flower soon began to hliKun,
And the bee was on the wing.
And "Lucella wa busy with her gar
den. flower and with the fowls of
the barnyard, while l wn preparing
the soil for the summer crops to
grow. Hut I needed help, and Joe had
all the work at homo he could do,
Hut providence, It seemed, had laid
a deeper plan. In a few day a young
man rme sauntering down the road
towards our house with rather un
steady steps, but with a steady on
ward move as though a positive de
termination was behind It. He was
plainly but neatly dressed, and wore
the air of one who bad seen, or waa
seeking better days.'
"Sir, can I rest with you a few
days and assist you with your work
the whiter
"You can stop with us awhile, and
I will pay you for wour work In the
field. What Is your name?"
The young man blushed slightly al
the query, but replied:
"My name Is Alfred, sir. I have no
other name."
This was rather a peculiar condi
tion, however, I Introduced the young
man to I.ucelln n "Alfred." Lucell
hesitated a little, seemingly listening
for the second name, but managed
to any "good evening, sir."
Alfred was a young man of Intelli
gence If not of good education, and
at our request guve a concise state
ment of the history of his life ns far
as he knew It. His tlrst recollection
was. he wus picked up III the streets
of a city called New Orleans by some
rough looking men ami placed In a
large btdldlng among other small
children, with nurses to attend them.
This building, lie learned In time, was
called "A Home for Orphan," where
he remained until old enough to earn
his own supiHirt. Then he drifted
away from the city and falling In
with some miners finally brought up
on the Pacific coast where he re
mained ten year In the employ of a
rancher. The rancher sent him to
school three years of the ten, but
dying. left Alfred to wander again.
"Fato" or "luck" led him north, but he
knew not where until be came to our
place, when a strange feeling came
over him to stop with us a while. The
name Alfred was given him at the
"Home," but his parent' name. If
any one knew, was never revealed
to him.
Alfred proving agreeable to u ev
ery way, was kept on the farm
awhile, and seemed to feel more at
home every day. Soon Molly and
Aleemoo came to visit us. Lnrella
introduced Alfred to "our friend and
neighbors." Alfred bowed In manly
politeness, but Lucella and I perceiv
ed a deep blush on his thin face, while
Alccmoo seemed no less affected.
Time moved gently n for several
months, Molly and Alccmoo visiting
occasionally and assisting Lucella with
her work. One day It wa innounred
a religious meeting would be held the
next Sunday at a neighbor's house.
one and a half miles away. Alcemoo
came over as she had done on occa
sions before to go with us. We nil
prepared to Walk. "But what would
Alfred do?" politeness and good man
ners seemed to be a part of his na
ture. He offered Alcemoo his arm
which was accepted with thanks.
Sweet summer was passing away.
A rainy day came, and wo were quiet
ly at home when the conversation
turned to the Indian girl. Alfred re
marking, "she Is rather captivating
and has such a sweet voice." Then
gave Aleemoo's history as far ns 1
knew It. recounting the fact and
the scene of the proposal, when I saw
big tears coursing down Alfred'
cheeks. Again n "spell" came over
me and I saw the soul relationship
that by virtue of nature's Inw exist
ed between Aleemoo u ml Alfred a
perfect harmony of i mini-vibration.
And my recounting the fact of Alee
moo's soul emotions touched a har
monious point lu Alfred's nature and
caused to overflow agnln In dowdrop
of love.
Though dusky maiden on one side,
a son of civilization on the other, Lu
cella accused Alfred of being III love,
but ho denied It saying, "I am hut a
waif In the world and of unknown
parentage, if I were In ovo I could
not offer myself to one n pure In
heart ns Aleemoo." A "spell" again
nunc over me and I saw an epidemic
fever lu a largo city which swept
thousands away, mid children were
left to wander the street iincared
for. and getting en rapport with
Alfred's aura, I traced a magnetic Hue
from him to this stricken elly, then
followed It from the city In It long
winding course until the day he came
to injy house. The relation of this
vision gave Alfred hope. "It may be
so." Again Lucella accused Alfred
of being In love. Again the accusa
tion was denied, but I.ucelln assured
him that fulling In love was like
falling off a log. we cannot help It In
the one case, nor yet lu the other.
"But I know not my surname. How
-onl, I get married without that
nnine?"
I advised Alfred he had a legal
heart In regard to marliige. If her
heart wild no before that time she
would promptly tell him. If yes, she
would Inform him nt once. "Come
visit us as often ns you wish, but say
nothing of mntiiige, leave that all to
me."
Alfred Russel was blessed with this
answer rather than otherwise, feeling
assured that If love turned III his fav
or It would be pure and Instlng.
Alfred Russel now begun his life
work In real earnest, knowing there
was something worthy he might hope
for. He consulted with Lucella and I,
We nil vised him to secure a donation
right to give himself a name, if he
could get no clue to go by then by
she r adoption. He said "I have tried
to find a clue, but failed of success.
But If I adopt, why not the name of
Russell, the name of the good matron
who so tenderly cared for me while
In the Home?" So Alfred was known
from that day hence as Alfred Russel,
no custom In such mutter, They were,
married wherever they might bis at
thu time, but If It were pleasing to
him who now claimed her as his own,
hIik would prefer her father's homu
for the ceremony.
Tomorrow was the wedding day.
An olncer of the law was found,
provisional law made by the early
settlers of till country to sec-urn
peace and order until Congress should
take control. And In the presence
of a few Invited friends, Cucocookco
Aleemoo, robed III garments of tivl
tltutlnn, with some lain wild flower
tn adorn her hair, became Alfred Rus
set' wife,
No honeymoon arose on this occa
sion, It not being a custom among tlm
fnlapoola. Nor did Alfred Russell
have time or Inclination for such
past time, but rather a home to pre
pare. The question of a doiinllou of
the laud around Joo'a homo was dis
cussed. Joe was well pleused with
Die proposition, "You tnku him, tint
law tell Indian no.' Yet this olio
thing I crave. Let me renin In and
live here where 1 have lived no long,
and where my children were born. It
may be I send other two to miiisd,"
It wan a happy thought of Jon to
send his ol her children In school, a
only one term of three mouths had
been taught In Hint vicinity up to
that lime, and Joe nt once seemed to
comprehend Its posHllillilles
Alfred Russet and Ills wife wero

should be complied with, and lather
If he prefered to live Willi them It

Yes."
"Are you twentyono yenr of age?"
"I do not know, I wa an orphan

The next day Alfred HtiaMl and I
were aboard two Indian ponies search
ing all tli vacant land In that part of
the country w here a home could easi
ly be nude. The tract Joe lived on
gave the best promise. But a natlv
Indian could not hold land without
a specinl set of Congress, but should
he take that tract No, he would
wslt awhile. He did not wish Just
then to offend Joe, also an adverse
wind might blow. In Hint case he
would look elsewhere for land for a
home.
But Alfred Russel had not long to
wnlt. It was Autumn now, and the
maple leaves were falling. Vet the
sun shone brightly and warmly, nor
yet had the wild Idnle ceased their
songs, nor summer flowers all faded
from view. Aleemoo. fully dressed In
Indian costume, came from her ful ti
er's home and greeted Alfred Russell
with tears and un affection acceptance.
"My heart tells me lo come to you.
My heart never lies. I wear my In
dian costume today, lomorow I throw
all Indian away." Alfred Russet rins
