A. larger crop than usual is not the only cood feature oC this year's apples. They are proving o better quality in Oregon and Southern "Washington than lor -years. At tho office of the State Board of Horti ciilture all the specimens received are remarkably free from pests. Secretary Dosch attributes this to both the peculiar weather conditions and more spraying. Cool nights for most of the "Summer sea son have not been conducive to growth, of codlln moth and scab. But the secretary believes spraying has accomplished moss than weather, and the condition this year can bo repeated eacn year lCthe orchard lsts desire. Last year there -was more spraying than usual, but this season the increased use of preventive sprays is stjll more noticeable. The fruit la begin ning to bear evidence of It. At the be ginning of the year the -State Board of Horticulture sent throughout the stata and Southern Washington circulars for bidding -shipment of infectlfd fruit. Fruit growers, realizing that they could not market diseased fruit, nave apparently been makmr a more earnest effort to 1 eradicate the pests ruining their orchards. Tho results are very gratifying to tha members of the board, and they hope for atill further improvements made. Mhjtia. CoaMST roa UiaoK-At a spe cial meeting of the Military Board held yesterday In the office of AflJutant-Gen-eral C U. Gantenbeln. application was received for the organization of a com pany of infantry at Union. At the present time there are only two vacancies Jn the entire Guard, one being In the First Separate Battalion, in Eastern Oregon, and the other In the Third Regiment, at Portland. The board -was pleased to re ceive an application from the first dis trict to fill this -vacancy, which will give the battalion four companies if the Union company is a success. Adjutant General Gantenbeln was authorized to, proceed with the organization, provided it appeared by satisfactory evidence that the men bad a suitable armory for drill purposes and for the .protection of state property. Looking for. More LajnuER. Eastern timber men and cruisers are becoming numerous about Portland hotels, again, and Quite a number of Bales of timber lands have been made within the past week. The total sales for the past year would run into enormous proportions, if gathered under one head, but this could only be done by obtaining facts and s ureff from deed Tecords of each county. Ashland, Wis., Duluth, Minn., and Sagi naw, Mich., lumbermen are largely rep resented, firms in some cases naving se eral cruisers in the woods. By the time these buyers get through there will be very few acres of timber land in first hands in Oregon, Washington or Cali fornia. Chinesu -Crew Deported. Thirty-three Chinese, who until lately constituted the crew of the Argyll, were yssterday sent by the customs officials to Vancouver, B. C This Indicates that the Argyll ba changed ownership, and the new propri etor does not care to employ the Chinese to operate his vessel. So long as the Chl nrso were engaged on the vessel they were all right, as the customs officials prevented their landing. They do not come under the head of merchants, "who aro permitted to come to the TJnited States under the exclusion act, and have to be deported as soon as discharged from the vessel. Horses Saved Him. A drunfcen man, yelling for Bryan, attracted considerable attention at the corner of Fourth and Washington streets yesterday forenoon. He was not molested until he had walked into the middle of the street and fell Hat on his face In front of a rapidly ap proaching team. Quite a crowd gathered then, expecting to find him crushed, but tho horses, having better sense than he. stopped suddenly before trampling on him. The man was picked up and set against the curb, where he lay oblivious to all surroundings until bundled Into tha patrol wagon by the police. Coiiino to Huxsboro Professor W. B. Barnes, of Franklin. Neb., brother of IL F. Barnes, Deputy Collector" of Customs in Portland, arrived here 3 esterday morn ing, having come through California. Professor Barnes is the newly elected, principal of tho Hlllsboro schools, and tomorrow he will go out on the West Side train to look the ground over and g"t acquainted. After spending a few days at Hlllsboro he will go to Ocean Park and remain there the remainder of his vaca tion with the fatally of ht3 brother, who are located at the Park for the season. BATTiRQAP Man Resigks. A. S. Glbbs, for the past 10 years cashier for the Ore gon Improvement Company at Seattle, has resigned his position on account of Ill-health. The company sent Mr. Glbbs to California Tor a few months, but the trip did not do as much good as ex pected. Mr. Glbbs for several years was chief clerk In the O. B. & N. local freight office at Portland, under George H. Strout, and also H. A. Moss, "and the railroad fraternity in Portland especially will re gret to hear he has been forced to resign a good position. Exporting Fruit and Vegetables. Considerable fruit and vegetables are be ing shipped to Seattle by express. Ore gon products in this line are par ex cellence this season, and are said to go like hotoakes in the cities of Puget Sound. Apples of the 5savertsteln arlety are particularly in favor, while peaches. plums, tomatoes and even potatoes stand ' the express charges and yet find ready sale. The potatoes this season are ex ceptionally good for the time of year. Incorporation.

Tn speaking of non ors -non by Cadet Johnston at the 2Caval Academy In yesterday's issue, the to I Johnston brothers were confused.

Nor a Portland Woman. The publica tion in Friday's issue of The Oregonlan of the cablegram from Shanghai reporting the murder of four women missionaries belonging to the Chinese Inland Mission caused many friends to fear that the Mrs. E. J. Cooper mentioned might be Mrs. Ellen Berry CooDer. a, former Port lander. Her father, F. W. Berry, of thl3 cltv, states that it was not his daughter, but was, he fears and believes, her sister,-in-law, Mrs. Ernest J. Cooper, "who. with her husband, has been serving under the auspices of the Chinese Inland Mission for many years. Colored Odd Fellows. The now Northwest Lodge.

It is not wise to buy a piano on the testimony of tho eye. or even the ear alone, for even a poor piano may sound fairly -well when now. Reputation, there fore, counts for a good deal. In matter of reputation the Emerson is second to none. "Established half a century" cer tainly means something. It Is not the highest-priced piano made, but it is the best that experience, brains and money can produce. You will find more "piano value," to the dollar in an Emerson than In any other made.
