The New York "Homestead" pub
lishes a complete exhibit of the world's
supply and demand of bops for the cur
rent season ending August 31 , 1893. The
exact shortage of the world's supply is
3,500,000 pounds, which must be made
up by the consumption of . old stock.
There has been enough on band for the
purpose. There is an estimated short
age of 6,000,000 pounds in the English
supply, and England has yet to secure
hops to meet the demand before the end
of the season. It is noteworthy that
while every effort is made to keep the
price of American hops below 25 cents
per pound, foreign hops have been im
ported at a cost of 39 cents in addition
to the duty, thus showing- American
brewers are willing to pay fully 55 cents
for foreign hops, while they begrudge 25
cents for American hops, which are in
finitely superior to the impoi-red article,
which are mostly cheap Russian growth,
repacked in Germany and labeled as
choice Bavarian hops, especially for the
export trade. The output of beer in this
country was increased by 500,000 barrels
during the first four months of the ' pre
sent season. ' -
It is now known to be a fact that
there will be a new freight schedule
adopted by the Union Pacific system
east from. Portland over the Pacific
division. ' This will go into effect on the
26th. Portland sees that something
mast be done to hold her trade with
Eastern Oregon, and has succeeded in
accomplishing the adoption of this new
schedule. It is not positively know
what reduction is to be made.
, What Pendleton now wants, says the
Tribune, is a new freight schedule from
the east and she and Walla Walla can
get it if concerted action' is taken.
There is no reason why Spokane can
have her freight delivered twenty cents
on a hundred cheaper over the Union
Pacific system than Pendleton and
Walla Walla, and the two latter cities
ought to rise up in their might and show
this company what virtue there is in
the Interstate Commerce Commission.
The Dallas Transcript nurses its sore
spot in the. following language: ''Ea
ley's portage railway bill should have
passed, as it was one of merit, inasmuch
as it was providing for an outlet of the
products of a vast eection east of the
cascades. In the matter of appropria
tions nineteen-twentieths comes to the
Willamette valley; and if our cousins
across the mountains make a big kick
because of this discrimination, some
day, we webfooters may not be sur
prised." The Chrokiclb does not know
bow hard a knock it will take to sur
prise "webfooters," but if losing the
Monmouth appropriation, the Willam
ette canal, and several other things dear
to the heart of those mist-benighted
denizens would jog their understanding
. a little, it ia possible they could be sur
prised two years from now.
So far, Oregon has furnished six vic
tims for the mortuary record of those
frozen to death during the winter, says
- a valley exchange. But those who have
thus lost- their lives were indiscreet
liunters whoee love for the sport led
them np into the deep fastnesses ot
' mountain forests, where unexpectedly
they Ioitp encountered blinding snow
utorms and a colder atmosphere. Los
ing their way, they perished as might be
expected. . At no time during the winter
has the thermometer fell below 10 de
drees above zero in the Willamette val
ley. The appointment of Judge Gresham
by Cleveland is probably the first case
on record where a president has crossed
parties in the selection of his cabinet.
, The fact will please the great majority
of the American people; though, for
they will recognize that Cleveland is not
bound to any man or set of men, polit
ical or otherwise, and proposes to be
captain 'of the ship in all that the word
implies. '

A Cordial Reception.
Early one morning, recently. 1 called
to see a gentleman who bad not yet left
his bed. I was met at the door by a
woman whose sleeves were rolled up,
who wore an ample apron . upon which
were various spots of flour and whose
face was not entirely free from similar
spots. It was "bake day," but she did
not embarrass me by any reference to
the fact or any apology as to her appear
ance. She asked me into the parlor and
after sending, one of the children up
stairs to notify the father of my pres
ence, re-entered the parlor and chatted
Until her husband appeared about vari
ous topics in an entertaining, easy man
ner, quite as though she had been ex
pecting and was all fixed np to receive
me. It was simply delightful and my
great grief is that ' 1 have no sufficient
excuse to make another early morning
call at the same home. Detroit Free

A Way .ot Cooking: Rodents. .
The negro slaves of Jamaica' used to
regard rats as a dainty, their masters
not providing them with any other meat.
Their method of cooking the toothsome
rodents was to impale each one on a
long wooden skewer,' after cleaning the
animal and cutting off the tail, turning
it briskly around over a fire- Until the
hair was all burned . off. Then it was
scraped until free from fur, and finally
the end of the skewer was stuck into the
ground, inclined toward the fire, until
it was toasted dry and crisp, thus being
mado ready for the meal. Washington

A Train of Elevator Cars.
From an elevator point of view the
new Masonic temple building in Chicago
will be the most important in the world.
It will have twenty-four cars built in a
circular shaft having a 250 foot rise.
There will be express elevators, way and
freight trains. The first will go to the
top floor without stopping,' while the
others will stop either at every floor, or
at the fifth, tenth, fifteenth and so on.
They will not run at full speed, prob
ably because passengers do not like the
sensation of flying. Chicago Journal of
Commerce;
A Solid Silver Dinner Servloe.
Probably the most magnificent com
plimentary present ever received by a
European sovereign is the emperor of
Austria's silver wedding gift to the czar.
It consists of a dinner service of solid sil
ver, superbly wrought and chased, each
piece bearing an imperial eagle. The
service is for twenty-four persons, and
there are 280 pieces. London Truth.
Cotton Seed OH Generates Fire.
The recent losses by fire in the cargo
of ships carrying cotton has shown that
cotton seed oil, when held in the cotton on
the outside of the bale, rapidly oxidizes
and generates spontaneous combustion.
