Plant Wizard's Queer Fruit. Two of the most peculiar specimens of freak fruit exhibited this year have been received from Guy Ross of 420 Park avenue, says a dispatch from Riverside, Cal. The two are nothing less than a vine peach and a vine lemon. Some three years ago Mr. Ross bought the seed from soma wizard-working Burbank east of the Rockies, and last spring he planted them. The- vine peach Is not unlike thf peach In color, odor and flavor, and In shape and size is ngln to the aver age slzej orange, in habits of growth it Is like a cucumber, and Its peculiar flavor and shape were Inbred through the crossing of the cucumber with come other plant, which the odor would suggest was a cantaloupe. The vine lemon bears even a closer resemblance to the cucumber, from which It Is also developed, and al though it has no particularly acid Qualities when first picked from the vine. It becomes decidedly tart when cooked, and in the making of mar malade It is preferable to the best t lee-grown lemons.

News from "the front" Indicates that the construction crew which Is laying steel Into Wallowa county, has reached the Mlnam, says the La Grange Observer. The bridge across the' Wallowa river below the Junc tion with the Mlnam, is only a tem porary structure' however, and pas singer trains cannot be handled over It with any degree' of safety. The large crew which Is stringing Western I'nlon telegraph wires Into that coun ty Is following along with the steel Jnylng, as they cannot get ahead of the steel gang, as that would require other means of transportation than the new road.

Railroad Lines and Irrigation Canal Levels Being Run In Every Direction. Kennewick, Wash., Aug. 7. In the vicinity of Kennewick the sagebrush is full of surveyors. Many of the crews are working on railroad lines, while others are running levels for Irrigation canals. For the Kennewick Northern, a new line incorporated by Jim Hill, to run from Adrian to this city, connecting with the Spokane, Portland & Seattle railway, the engineers are beginning cross-sectioning, and construction work is expected to start this fall. Tho new road is the result of the Hill scheme to find a water grade to the coast for some of his Great Norththern territory, and the com pletion of the Kennewick Northern will provide this cheap transporta tion. This new connection is made with the Great Northern and with that road's feeders and the feeders ot the Northern Pacific, practically all the wheat raised in Washington and Oregon will seek a market via Port land. The activity of the Hill interests, it Is believed, has stimulated the progress of the North Coast, which has several parties of engineers In this vicinity. The greater part of 1U right of way has been purchased, and the prospects are that there will be keen competition for this terri tory; Hill with his water grades to Portland having the apparent advantage.
