STRAWBERRIES have been getting steadily better in quality and lower in price, 2 boxes for 35 cents now being an average figure, with choicer ones at 15 and 20 cents a box, and less attractive ones at 10 cents. Raspberries and goose berries have also made their appearance, the former 35 cents a box and the latter cents a pound. The English "gooseberry tart' has a reputation almost equal to that of the American apple pie, but the berries there are larger and do not call for eo much patience In "topping and tail ing" as do the smaller ones we have. The raspberry, on the other hand, seems to have been specially designed to meet the busy American housekeeper. Cherries are still small and cost 26 cents a pound, but pineapples are rather cheaper just now, judging from some fairly large ones I saw at 25 cents each. Some one recently told me of a fruit salad composed of strawberries, shred pine tipple and blanched and sliced new Bra zil nuts, sftrved in the pineapple shell. I cannot speak of it from personal ex perience, but my informant said that it was good. Celery is rapidly passing, to the grief of those who use it freely as a "filler" In chicken and other meat salads? but there are good green peas to be had that ran be used for similar purposes, and plenty of head lettuce and other nice fresh things, dome people use raw chop ped cauliflower in salads when celery fails, considering it more sweet and more Silicate than the cabbage which others Tall back on. There are very good cauli flowers to 'be had just now for 35 cents. An admirable vegetable, the cauliflower, and worthy of Its title, "the white rose 3f the kitchen garden." There are tiny new Summer squashes doming in. from which attractive entrees Min be made by stuffing them in various savory ways. The tomato and shrimp combination with squash, known as 'squash a la Creole," is one that spe cially appeals to me, and there are rather similar concoctions with crab meat or ninccd chicken or veal that also is good. This kind of squash costs 20 cents a pound it present. Tomatoes are 25 cents a nound. New green lima beans. 25 cents, ind string beans. 20 cents a pound. Asparagus is still good and costs 10 to cents a pound. A pretty way of serving cold asparagus with mayonnaise 48 to pass the bunch of stalks through a ring of green pepper; but peppers are still "high," selling at 3 for 25 cents. Shad Is plentiful and shad roe is 25 :cnts a pound Just now. Potted shad roe imkos a handy and delicious sandwich illing. There .is good sturgeon at io ?ents. salmon, croppies and cat fish be ns tlie same price. Black-cod, rock cod i ml hflHhut are 12; cents: sea trout. 2.1 cents; black bass, 35 cents, and perch and herring, 10 cents a pound. Poultry prices are the same as last week. ASK FOR WRIT OF REVIEW Property-Owners Object to Method of Grand-Avenue Improvement. Property-owners on Grand avenue have united in a petition to the Cir cuit Court asking- that the City of Port land, by, City Auditor Barbur, be di rected to submit a writ of review for the improvement of Grand avenue from East Stark street to East Oak. The petition sets forth that in October, 1905, the City Council attempted to start proceedings to fill the gulch with earth instead of putting; in a steel or concrete bridge. It was estimated that this would cost J15.000. Now that the work has been completed it has been discovered that the cost is $15,900. The Council, it is asserted, ' attempted to cure the evil by reassessment proceed ings. This, it is alleged, cannot be done while the first assessment still stands, as the Council thereby acts in a double judicial capacity. The ordi nance to which objection is made is No. 17.719, which the Council attempted to pass April 13. 190S. The property-owners whose names appear on the petition filed in the Cir cuit Court yesterday are: George J. West. S. B. Cobb, Carrie Nicholas, John J. Kadderly and Mary Beakey.

Three world's records were claimed by the members of the Angler Club of New York in their third annual fly and ibait-catching tourna ment at the Harlem meet in Central Park. Dr. R. Johnson Held, at his first cast with a quarter-ounce bait covered a distance of 141 feet, at his second a distance of 1E0 feet, and his last of the live tests netted him TBI feet. The previous American record for amateurs was 131 feet 6 inches, made out doors, and 137 feet for professionals made indoors. Ed Rice made a cast of 142 feet on his sec ond attempt. The salmon fly-casting championship for distance was won by W. M. Plevins, of Northamptonshire, England, who cast 129 feet, supplanting the old record of 1J0 feet. The professional record was in creased to 140 feet by E. J. Mills from 124 feet 8 Inches. Ixiw Kates to Chicago.
