Several Hood River apple grow
ers who - were in attendance at
the National Apple Show at
Spokane, returned today, greatly
elated because the Rogue River
rar of Spltsenbergs, grown at
.Eagle reek, took the Ellott and
sweepstakes , prize' at the Spo
kane show.
In discussing the matter one
of the most prominent grower
said that the Rogue River ex
hibit won the prize on merit not
withstanding that the carload of
apples went to Spokane under,
the ' same handicap that It was
proposed the Hood River ear
should go.

' (flpecla! Dliptteb to The Journal.)
. Spokane, Waah., Nov. , 10. Trouble
has begun over, the action of the'etpple
show judge In awarding the; aweep-
.. stakes .prize to Tronson & Guthrie, of
ttagle Point, Or. North Yakima, Wash.,
fruitgrowers allege discrimination, say
Ing W. W. Sawyer, of Yakima, should
. have taken tba sweepstake with his
carload display of Grimes Golden. "The
Yakima men allege the prize-winning
exhibit was Infected with "Baldwin
rot," because of Its unripe condition,
while Sawyer' fruit was perfect They
attribute the alleged discrimination to
the fact that an Oregon man was on the
board of Judges while there was none
from Washington. The Yakima exhib
itor declared in an Interview given
The Journal correspondent that they
would never again send fruit to the
Spokane show.
The general public seems satisfied
with the prize award, as Oregon's prize
winning fruit was the center of admir
ation throughout the week,. The. show
is closing tonight in & blaze of glory,
with musio and an auction of the re
' malning fruit Most Of . the best car
load exhibits are already sold to east
ern and foreign markets. - Some - ill
feeling exists because Charles Pope, of
Ashland, 'Or.;' was slighted, ' He was
picked for a winner on Yellow New
towns, but the Judges failed ' to' mwurd
him anything because his fruit was not
unwrapped. Pope was not given suffi
cient time to unwrap. ' ' -1
Following are the complete awards:

afire, 1'lgattl said: '
"W knew It by the smoke. No on
told us. The smoke came puffing along
through th mine and we did not have
to be told. -We tried to get forward,
but the smoke was too thick.
Sola u Prayer,
"We prayed lots and many times we
thought we were going to die, but we
never gave up fighting. Today w made
up our minds that we would try to get
out The air was' bad and tbe dead
mules began to smell. , Then we took
our picks and cut through the wall. Sal
vatore and I still went alongside each
other. Finally we saw lights and men
and then we knew that we were all
right Immediately the durtor lets me
go, I will run home to my wife and
children. Yea, and then I will pray
some more and I will thank the food
Uol that he has saved my life."

"Out of the depths have I called upon
the gnod I-ord, the Ixird hear my pray.

tbe voice of my complaint".
Tht vords were sung by th Im
prisoned miners when they believed
that hop was well nigh gone. Again
and again throughout the day heart
broken voice swelled and rung through
the darkness of the Cherry mine, and
Cherry believes that the Lord not only
answered th prayer, but performed a
miracle.
Among the. men brought cut today
were several American who were deep
ly . religious, and they-sought refuge
in prayer, and hymns when It seemed
that no human aid could reach them
and that they were doomed to die un
less help cam a from. .. soma higher
power. -

Led by William Clelland and Walter

The last Urn this familiar old hymn
waa sung was this morning, when It
had been - determined that the stronger
ones snouid cut through the wall and
try to reach th shaft for help.
wnen it was finished Clelland
preached a little sermon to the men
and urged them to put their trust in
the Almighty. It wa not a long ser
mon, but very much to the point
rui j out trust m Him who sees
every sparrow falland remember that
God Is good." he said.
. Picture the grandeur, the solemnity
Of this little' service. At the farthest
extremity of the mine a dirty, dingy
arirt in a vain or coal was transformed
into a. chapel. ' It was not formally
consecratea. it naa never had the
blessing of the church, but every man
In the party believes and knows in
his heart that It was consecrated from
above. '
Za Delirium of Joy.
Dellrlou with Joy, Mrs. Walter Waite
flung herself Into her husband's arms
as he emerged from the cage . at the
top of the shaft, and those In the crowd
who knew her story sympathised with
her, for yesterday when the first of
the dead were brought from the mine
Mrs. Walte and her sister, Mrs". Dobyns,
Identified on of th bodies as that of
Walter Waite. The body prove to be
tnat or Charles waite.
Prostrated with grief at home, Mrs.
waite could hardly believe the won
derrui news when she was told that
men were alive in the mine. She rushed
frantically to th shaft and one of the
nrst to be brought up was her husband
whom she believed to be already dead
ana Dunea. witn her this afternoon
was little Leonard Waite. their 10-vear-
01a son. mo is a cripple and walks
with crutches and th scene when he
and his mother greeted Walter Walte
was such that it set the crowd wild
with Joy. Then he waa hurried to med

himself close to his father and said, aa
