FRUIT CALI- SELLS "Oregon apples will in time bo as famous as California oranges." "Tho commercial value of good apples is greater than that of oranges and Oregon should profit thereby." That is tho summary of W. H. Selleck's opinion, says tho Oregon Journal of May 28th, and he says that there are many in New York who agree with him. Mr. Selleck Is connected with the securities corpor ation of 40 Wall street, and travels most of his time between New York and London and Paris. He was for merly from Los Angeles. Recently when he was going to Paris he thought it would be a splendid idea to take a banker friend there a box of apples. Ho went to a fruit dealer and made known his wants for the best apple in tho market. "There is only one apple in tho market worth buying," he was told, "and that Is what is called tho Ore gon apple. Everyone is asking for it now, and will take nothing else after. once trying it." This was said to a former Cali fornia man, who knew of Oregon ap ples. But he wanted tho best and bought them a box of 75 pounds and paid $7.50 for them. They were shipped, and when ho arrived In Paris a little later he found his friends delighted. "Tho finest apple we over had," was the general ver dict. But, alas for the enthusiastic THE REIGNING STYLES. Pictures of Kings and Nobles as Fash ion Plates. The tailor's office wns littered with foreign illustrated weeklies, English, French, German, Russian, and so on. "These," he said, "are more useful to me In my business than all the fash ion plates going." "Why so?" tho patron inquired. The tailor took up a French weekly and opened it at random. "Seo here," ho said, turning from one great photograph to another. "Hero is the terrace at Monte Carlo, with the Duke of Westminster and Lord Wil loughby d'Eresby in tho foreground This is the Nice race course, and the men talking to the girl In white are the Grand DuUo Boris, young Isolin of Now York, the Conitc de Cbolseul and Lord Crowe. Here we have the start at the Cresta run at St Morltz. and the young men in knickers are the Prince of Rcuss, Mr. Coruwallls-West. Lord Howard do Walden and tbe Ger man crown prince." The tailor, tossing the weekly aside, lighted a gold tipped cigarette. "Catch on now?" he asked. "Er no," the patron hesitated. "An ordinary fashion plate," explain ed the tailor, "is all right, but how do I know if the new fashions in it aro being worn? Here in these weeklies, though, I get tho new fashions Just as clear and distinct, and I havo further the assurance that they are going that they are not mere lifeless freak things, hut things which have been taken up by the leading dressers of tho world. "And so, sir, when I recommend you a new fashion you may rest assured It has backing and authority behind it. And if you say to mo, 'Oh, that is not being worn, I'm sure,' I reply to you: '"No, sir. It is not being worn In this town yet, I admit, but here, sir, is a picture of tho young king of Spain in tho samo cut, and hero is the Earl of Lonsdale, and hero Is tho Prince of Wales, and hero' "But by that time," said the tailor, "I guess you aro ready enough to take my word for tho now fashion's author ity without further evidence." Now Orleans Times-Democrat Tho Unearthing of Memphis. Memphis, on tho Nile, one of tho greatest capitals of the ancient world, is burled beneath ground which Is now under cultivation by the villagers of MItrahlneh, who will have to bo transferred to other plots and com pensated before tho work of excava tion can proceed very far. It is esti mated that an expenditure of about $15,000 annually for fifteen years will bo required to excavate tho templo sites, apart from the city. Tho un earthing of Memphis, which contain ed tho finest school of Egyptian art, will bo by far tho greatest archaeolog ical work of recent times and must result in a vast addition to the world's knowledgo of nncient Egyptian his tory and civilization. Tho work will soon bo begun by Professor Petrle, head of the British School of Archae ology in Egypt A Japanese Wedding Ring. Mrs. Post Wheeler has what perhaps no other woman in the United States has a Japanese wedding ring. For Hallio Ermlnio Rlvts, as sho is known to tho literacy world, was married in Selections banker! So delighted was ho with these beautiful specimens that he gave some to his friends. His friends told of tho unusual fruit, and their friends came begging to seo them. And so they were doled out ono by one, and tho banker's heart swelled with pride as he saw tho admiration his apples caused. But ono day ho awoke to find that all had been given away but a mere half doze'n, and he closed his hand and heart to their pleasure and kept them for his family. But his generosity was well re paid. Now these numerous friends will have nothing but Oregon apples, and they send to London for them and think nothing of tho price they must pay. For are they not the best apple that has over crossed their epicurean French palates? Mr. Selleck goes on to say that he himself when in New York buys them every day at tho fruit stands and pays 15 cents to 20 cents apiece for them, and does not consider it money 111 spent. Certain kinds of apples are sold there under the gen eral namo of Oregon apples, and this Is advertisement enough. They aro Spitzenburg, Newton Pippins and the Banana apple, which has never been grown elsewhere. Mr. Selleck pays 30 cents for it at tho fruit stands. Mr. Selleck is eager that tho commer cial bodies hero take up the matter of systematically advertising Oregon apples so as to give them tho pres tige that the California orange en joys, and he says it will bo an easy matter and a remunerative ono, for tho commercial value of tho apple is greater than that of the orange. AAAAAAA Japan to Post Wheeler, secretary or tho American legation. Although tho Episcopal ceremony wns used, she chose tho Japanese marriage symbol In preference to that of her own coun try. It is a little wider than the ordi nary band and is beautifully carved in oriental design. Between the chased work arc inserted Japanese characters that read, "My beloved is mine and I am his." This is the favorite sentiment for the oriental wedding. This senti ment is repeated several times around tho band. New York Sun. French Family Statistics. The number of French families that is to say, households with or without children is estimated at 11,315,000.

Republique Francalse, Paris. The Rat In Paris. Parisians havo found a way of turn ing tho rat Into a profltablo commodi ty. In that city theio is a rat pound. It Is a deep walled pit, in which some thousands of rats are kept A dead horse is thrown into this pit at night, and rats strip tho carcass of its flesh. Once a month there is a general slay ing of rats by gas. Tho rats aro sleek nnd plump and their hides aro in ex cellent condition. Their skins aro re moved aud treated and eventually aro made into "kid" gloves. The New China. There Is no longer any doubt, our Shanghai correspondent tells us, that tho old order of thought which has guided the lives of countless millions in tho Chinese empire through a long succession of centuries is passing away forever. The movement in favor of western education lias becomo irre sistible. London Times. Rat Extermination Virus Wanted. Consul Maxwell Blake, at Dunferm line, reports that a movement has just) been inaugurated by tho commercial and scientific associations of Great Britain for tho extermination of rats, which aio very destructive to proper ty. Tho consul adds that it would appear that tho United Kingdom of fers to American exporting chemists an attractive market for tho sale of some rat destroying virus, harmless to other creatures, but spreading con tamination and death to its own kind. Owing to tho spreading by rats of trichinosis among swine, tho German imperial chancellor has Issued a rccipo for tho extermination of tho rat in any district where trichinosis occurs. The Pneumatio Tube. A novel experiment to demonstrate tho practicability of a pneumatic par cel carrier was recently mado In Chi cago. Tho "parcel" shot through eu short length of samplo tube was a thirteen-year-old boy. no traveled an tho rato of sixteen miles an hour and wns in no way tho worso for tho Jour ney. J. M. Masten, superintendent of tho railway mall service, and Post muster Campbell of Chicago witnessed tho experiment ns representatives of tho postotuco department, which is looking into tho device. Tho inventor declares that with a tubo between Now York and Chicago mail can bo shot fron ono city to tho other In seven hours. m soup s II SHAMPOO Seattle Woman AVants Divorce Be cause Husband Insists on Putting tho First Course on Ills Hair. SEATTLE, Wash., Juno 10. Mary Jenks asked tho Superior Court toj grant her a decree of divorce from Shehezerde Jenks on tho. grounds that her husband is a soupomanlac' She says her husband has been mark- ' ed from Infancy with a. fine frenzy for soup vegetable soup preforred. Tho couple married in Abilene,' Kan., December 25, 1901, in the way ' of a special Christmas observance,' but tho wife alleges that she has not spent a placid and enjoyable Christ mas day since. According to the' wife, a dish of soup placed before her husband dethrones his reason nnd wrec'.:s his otherwise normal ' mentality. There is only ono thing to do with" soup, according to Shehezerde's erra-' tic custom ,and that is apply it to tho hair. On every other subject tho1" husband Is sano and practical, up to tho point where tho soup arrives. Then his face lights up with satis-1 faction and ho dives in with both' hands, applying tho lotion to his head briskly until his portion is ex hausted. Mrs. Jenks tells tho court that sho has borne this patiently for years, cutting out bouillon from tho family menu, and guarding tho husband from surprise as much as possible, but in spite of this, Shehezorde, fre quently came homo with carrots, minced potatoes and shreds of cab bage In his hair, thus evidencing that ho had dined with friends. THE LONE STAR RANGERS. Courageous Men Who Are Loyal Guard ians of the Law. "When in Austin, Tex., a few weeks. ngo." said J. D. Robey of Memphis Tenn., "my attention was directed to a party of about a dozen men big, huskyj fellows most of them under thirty; years, who were tramping along Con- grcsa avenue, not In a swaggerig way,' but with a kind of rolling, Bailorlike gait that seemed to differentiate them from ordinary citizens. "They had on broad brimmed som breros, bluo woolen shirts and high! heeled boots, nnd I would have taken them for cowboys but for tho big sir shooters and cartridge belts that wera strapped about their waists. This led me to surmise that they wcro mem bers of the celebrated ranger force, and it turned out that they were. Thole peculiar walk came from spending so much of their tlmo on horseback. "Tho Texas rangers aro a p)t insti tution, for they aro a body of men who arc ready to brave death at a minute's notice and who are tho most loyal guardians of law and order any state or nation ever employed. Utterly fear less of peril, they will go after tho cat tlo thieves of tho western plains or tho smuggler of tho Rio Grande or olt in, district court rooms with their hands on their Winchesters to preserve the peace at some murder trial, the hearing pf which would bring on fresh tragedies even before judge nnd Jury werd it hot for their presence. "Occasionally a ranger gets killed in tho performance of, his duty, but it is fnr more frequently the case that it la tho bad man or rustler who tries an4 argument with tho mounted officer that gets his quietus from tho muzzlo of a death dealing gun. There is not a man in the forco who is not a dead shot, and the ruffians they are after very rarely want to bring matters to that point where the deadliest aim gets tho decision." Bnltlmoro American. An Unusual Bit of Wrecking. Robert Rcld, the artist, is about to attempt an unusual feat in the way of "wrecking" In tho near futuro in the Fifth Avcnuo hotel. He is going to ' direct work of taking down from tho celling of the great hall on the second, floor of the dismantled hostelry two cir cular mural paintings that he did for . tho hotel about fifteen years ago. Deco rations of this kind aro first painted on canvas In tho samo manner as any, ordinary oil painting and then aro fas tened to tho wall surface by a "paste" of white lead. When this load becomes , hard, tho canvns practically becomes, a pnrt of tho wall, and that is where the difficulty of removing a decoration of this kind comes in. Tho "wrecker" who is to do the work for Mr. Reld Is no more certain that bo will be able to get the two panels oft without damag ing them than the artist is, but they, aro both hoping for tho best In spite of the number of years the decoration havo been on tho celling they still' pre servo their original brilliancy of color ing.
