Sacramento. Fiieak Snapdragon Discovered. A most remarkable bouquet was left at The Orcgonlan office yesterday, the like of which no one In this region has ever Eeen. It Is of snapdragon flowers raised by Mrs. Frank Le Grand of South Fourth street. The remarkable thing about the flowers Is not the richness and beauty of their coloring nor the many different col ors running from pure white through oil sorts of variegations to rich deep red or almost purple, all these are quite com mon In bouquets of snapdragons. The remarkable thing about these flowers is that they were all gathered from one plant, grown from one tiny seed, sown last Spring. This plant has one main stem, about a dozen branches or shoots coming out of the stem above the ground, and on each, of these a number of branch lets, each of which bears a spike of flow ers, no two of which are alike. It is al most impossible to believe this except one has seen the plant, but when bo many different heads of flowers are seen on one plant, and on some of the spikes or heads flowers of several very different colors, as a yellow or white one among deep red, one Is obliged to admit that the plant is the most wonderful of freaks. Mrs. Le Grand has many snapdragon plants from seeds which come In the same packet, but they each bear flowers of ono kind, while this one plant has -more kinds on It than all the others put to gc-thar. Mrs. Le Grand has a number of flowers in the tiny bit of ground at her disposal, and she Is watching this freak snapdragon with interest, as if its seeds produce the same kind, she may make a little fortune off them. It win, However, be difficult for the seeds to "come true" as It would puzzle any seed to Include all the variations end wonderful combina tions of this freak plant. Thirty to 50 years ago there was only one species of snapdragon, mixed white and yellow, commonly known as "butter and eggs." Piasurbs op Camping Out. People who have no time to go trout fishing can have many happy days over by .listening to accounts of. the fishing trips of others. A prominent lawyer, also an enthusiastic fisherman, was civlncr some friends yes terday an account of a late trip to Eaglo Creek accompanied by his 12-year-old dauchter and her chum, all on bicycles. They traveled about 35 miles and camped In the woods, a novel and oellghtful ex perience to one of the little girls. The catch amounted to DO nice trout, and the sport of landing the largest one was worth tho whole trip. It was hooked In a swift rapids at the foot of a long rapid chute, while standing under low over hanging branches. The stream was full of boulders, and it was not possible to reach a bit of beach below to land the trout. The fisherman felt that he was "up agin it" and played the fish a long tmet while trying to devise a scheme for landing it The two little girls watched the struggle in breathless excitement. Finding there was no other way, tho fish was finally hauled up the long swift chute, the rod bending till the point nearly touched the reel, but the fish was landed In safety and the fight was over. With such sport, a glorious appetite, pure mountain water and a bed under the etarry canopy, what greater pleasure there in life than fishing and camping out? CiiERRms Scarce and Dear. Cherry growers have been out of luck this sea son In most sections. There were plenty of the cherries, but so much cool show ery weather that the early varieties be came so thoroughly soaked that they would not keep sound while being brought to market. This kept the prices up and also epolled sales and prevented many persons from putting up any. Since the weather has been fine many cherries of good quality ure coming in. but In some way dealers manage to keep'prices up and away. TL Scott, of iillwaukie, was in the city yesterday and said he had two tons of cherries on his trees yet. He said he had offered a man 1 cent a pound to pick them, as he could get two cents a pound at the cannery. Right by him on the sidewalk a commission man was selling black cherries, but good ones, for C cents per pound by the box, and retail ers made no bones of asking 7 cents If necessary. Only a few cays ago good Itoyal Anne cherries were displayed In front of a grocery labeled 10 cents per pound. These things seem difficult to understand. while growers have tons on tho trees to sell for 2 cents a pound, and it causes one to ask who makes the money off largo crops of fruit Find Peaches Said to Be Coming. A fruit grower at Grant's, Eastern Oregon, writes that he is ready to begin shipping his crop of poaches here, and adds that they are tho "finest in tho world." This will be a fine thing if he is not mistaken. as poaches so far have been scarce, poor and dear here this season. The crop' In Northern Oregon is short, .ind shipments are of a clingstone peach, "Early Doug las" or something of that sort, which Is not finding favor, being, as a dealer said yesterday, mostly "pit and skin." He says tho growers ought to graft these trees to some other variety. Eastern Oregon should produce "good peaches and plenty of them, and in some places, early ones too. The new crop from Grant's will be looked for with interest, for the peach is toe king of summer fruits. How Portland Man advertises .Fair. X. H. Amos recently made a trip in tho Northwest and everywhere in register ing he affixed to his signature the figures '1906." This attracted notice in each town visited, which the following from the Iead Daily Call of South Dakota well illustrates: "X. H. Amos, '1905 Port land, Or., Is the manner in which it oc curs oa the register, the '1905' being to attract the attention of the public to tho fact that there is to bo something doing at Portland in IDOo in the way of an Exposi tion to commemorate the fact that Cap tains Lewis and Clark were instrumental in attracting tho attention of the people of the 'country to the Pacific Northwest a good while ago something like 100 years.

AT THE THEATERS EMPIRE THEATER. Lillian Leslie Mezzo-soprano. Alien J. Shaw Coin manipulator. DUges Aerial gymnast. Hayward and Hayward Sketch artist. Christy and "Willis Juggler and dancer. Conroy and Pearl "In a Little Fool ishness." Marsh Craig Equilibrist. Mcintyre and Primrose Minstrels. Blorcope. It waa really cooler In the Empire Thea ter last night, with its fang, ls restful color effects In red. and green and the Im maculate white dresses of the girls dot ted here and there over tho protty theater than" ft was to walk outside over warm cement sidewalks. A large audience was In attendance to sample the opening night of the new vaudeville bill of high-class merit. Lillian Leslie is the top-liner of the new list .of attractions, and she made a gorgeous figure last night as she came on the stage, a vision In white and pearls. She Is a handsome woman, and Is a singer of experience and refinement. Her voice Is a clear, penetrating, mellifluous one. Her first offering was "The Message of the Violet," from "The Prince of Pllscn." She received two hearty encores, and her responses were "When Chloe Sings a Song" and "Come Down. Ma Evenln' Star," both by Stromberg. Her voice eas ily filled the theater, and It Is a treat to hear such a high-class vaudeville artist After watching Allen J. Shaw in his quiet though rapid manipulation of coins, one wonders that he so graciously con sents to work for a salary In vaudeville when he can summon more than 30 shin ing new half dollars from nowhere in par ticular to repose between his fingers. If he wants money he simply makes a pass in the air and down comes the coin. Ho frankly told the audience last night that he only worked for amusement Delges shows superb muscular development in hia difficult and Interesting gymnastic work, and, his tricks are of the gilt-edged , type. Mcintyre and Primrose, colored min- strels, appear In a new act this week, and started the laughter-making by relating ( several of their matrimonial experiences, but strange to say they did not "roast" their respective mothers-ln-law. The poor old lady escaped. Once Mcintyre said to his partner, "I dreamed that I was dead and went to heaven." "That so?" said his partner, sarcastically. "And did you awako with the heat?" Marsh Craig dresses in serpentine green this week, and he colls and twists himself Into such a number of odd shapes that his snakeship is rivaled. Craig's work as a contortionist Is really sensational and sev eral times he seemed to defy the laws governing human anatomy. Hayward and Hayward again made good, and the women cleverly played on the piano "A Hot Time in the Old Town Tonlg'ht" as a dirge, two-step, waltz, etc. Christy, of Christy and Willis, did clever tricks In Juggling when he threw his hat orr his head and a cigar in his mouth at the same time. His balancing is good, and his part ner pleases with her artistic dancing on her toes. Conroy, of Conroy and Pearl, was very funny In his definition of the term highball, and the firm effectively sang a duet, "Oh, Josephine." The pic tures flashed by the bioscope are all worth seeing, especially the march of the "Dandy Fifth" Regiment of Baltimore. Md.yThe same entertaining bill for a week. Shield' Parle Vaudeville. Notwithstanding tho several other at tractions In the city this week, the splen- did vaudeville entertainment at Shields' son for this is easily discernible. Asido from having tho best artists that money can procure, the park is cool, airy and comfortable. In fact it is Just the place for thoso in search of a couple of hours of pastime to go and enjoy themselves. There is- one thing sure it will not have to close up on account of the sweltering heat RECENT POSTAL, CHANGES PostofQces Moved and Postmasters Appointed In Northwest. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU.

Du Boise has been appointed postmaster at Crystal Springs, Kitsap County, and the office moved one mile east WIFE'S POCKETBOOK. Women. BUagrree Regarding Best Method f Domestic Finance. July Housekeeper. The recent convention of tho South Car olina women's clubs was enlivened by a discussion of the wife's right to a pri vate independent income. A majority of tho delegates being agreed that every husband should make his wife a regular allowance, apart from the sum advanced for household expenses, the question then arose: How large should this allowance be? A certain definite perceatage-of his Income, argued some. But how large a percentage? Ten per cent said some. Five, said others. Let the percentage vary according t the cost of living in different localities, was suggested. "There Is nothing in this world so helpful to in dividuality as the being able to stand alone, and not lean on any other," de clared one earnest woman. "See the glow In the baby's face when she is able to balance herself on her little feet We women feel the same exhiliratlon when wo have our money, to do Just as we please with, - and nobody asking: 'Why, what did you do with that ?25 I gave you last week? or (shall I whisper It?) that 25 cents I gave you last month?' " But there Is another side to the ques tion, and, as presented by a famous wom an of learning and good works, it de eerves a respectful and thoughtful hear ing. "I don't want any allowance from my husband. I want more. The ideal marriage is an equal partnership, finan cial and otherwise. I should no more think of stipulating for. 510, or $30, or $30 a month spending money, than I should of stipulating for two pieces of pie at din ner every day or a second cup of coffee. Tno basis of every true marriage is abso lute mutual confidence. The wife should feel that the words, 'with all by worldly goods I thee endow,' are more than a sounding phrase, put In the ceremony for effect She should feel that all her hus band's Income is hers as well as his, to use wisely for the best Interest of them selves and their children. For tho sake of convenience. It may be that the hus- band assumes the role of cashier for the flrm, but the wife is to be regarded as an equal owner of tho income, whatever it may be. In my opinion, the emancipated women who shriek most loudly for an in- dependent Income are really placing the wife In the light of a salaried employe, in stead of an equal partner. I never feel that I am begging a gift when I tell my husband that I wish a certain amount of money. The wife who clamors for a cer tain fixed allowance shows lack of confi dence that her husband will give her that equal share In his fortunes to which she is entitled. Don't marry any man with whom such a disillusioning commercial arrangement is necessary." Here we have diametric views on this vital subject, both presented with anima tion and no small show of logic When women disagree, shall man decide? How shall a wife's pocketbook be filled?
