Oar Fruit Exhibit At Omaha. Yesterday Mr. F. S. Peet, of Portland, epent the day in this city endeavoring to awaken an interest in our fruit ex hibit at the Omaha exposition, and suc ceeded somewhat in his mission. Today Pete Stadelman sent a fine exhibit of grapes direct to the grounds and others have signified their intention of follow ing his example. One of our Eastern Oregon papers has been objeoting seriously to the bill which has been in the legislature asking for $18,000 to defray the expenses of our ex hibit there, saying that it has not been worth $15 to the state. In regard to the appropriation, wo have nothing to say; but certain it is that the paper in ques tion knows nothing of the many visitors who stop to wonder at and admire the Oregon fruit there displayed, while those who know just what an excellent ex hibit we might make, are positively ashamed of what they behold. Mr. Peet informs us that a free rate on 1000 poundB a week has been secured through to Omaha, which leaves little exense for our frnit men's neglect in failing to do this much towards adver tising our state. It is to be hoped that many boxes of Wasco county's wonder ful fruit will find their way to the ex hibition daring the weeks remaining, where they will receive doe credit as well as benefit the state. - SINGING AMONG THE GREEKS. The Ancient' Greeks Sans Blithely, and Were Carefully Instructed. Our present system of public instruc tion is not so modern as some would have us believe. Sparta had her state superintendent, who, if distant report is to be trusted, was an educational despot. But, while he wielded his walk ing stick freely during official visits, and encouraged his subordinates to ply the rod on all occasions, he was as diligent a promoter of music as is any humane and progressive educator of our era. As a result, the little Lace daemonians sang blithely, no matter what torment was going on under their tunics. And all over Greece, in those dim days, were schools, ranging from infant grades instructed under Arcadian hedges to the university-extension schemes harbored in buildings uniquely, termed "places of leisure." The infants were drilled' in their alpha-beta-gammas; the older boys were taught poetry and gymnastics, with something of arithmetic, geometry and drawing; and adults spent their leisure with rhetoriticians and sophists, pay ing handsomely for the privilege. But music was a sine qua non of Grecian life, in school and in sport, in battle and in burial. The epic and elegiac chantings at festivals, the calm specula tions of Pythagoras as to the music of the' spheres, the choral outburst of "the great fifth century," the material odes of Tyrtaeus and Pindar, all show the national love for melody of voice as well as for high and harmonious thought. An old-time Greek set down amid the strident, metallic voices of our occidental world would feel that the Furies had seized either upon him, or the continent he was visiting. The Wave of the 24th contains two full pages of Astorian pictures illustrat ing the salmon-fishing industry on the Columbia river. The photographs were made by J. H. Bratt, and are as fine a set as have ever been published. They can hardly fail to attract attention. The Wave now devotes considerable space and attention to Northwestern sub jects, especially to the affairs" of Wash ington and Oregon. This edition also contains photographs illustrating the Austrian tragedy, the Flood mansion (which was recently presented to the University of California), the Indian Congress at the Omaha Exposition, the street markets in Mexico, together with a fine picture of James D.Phelan, mayor of San Francisco, The reading matter is especially interesting, among the feat ures being a story by Frank Norris, en titled, "The Drowned Who Do Not Die."
