Portland. Tlio determination of Sec

markable Btory of cunnlbnlism wus
brought to Kydnoy, Australia, n fow
dnys before tho Hailing of tho steamer
Aornnv'l to this port, by tho French
steamer .Teanetto. Tlio victim of tho
display of savagery was n nativo of
iiuwiui, named Amaru, who ucted ns
orderly to tho immigration department
at Noumea, in tho Now Hebrides.
About Six KllltllH IU-n Afrinril mar.
ried a nativo woman of Aoba, in tho
Now Holirides group, nnd on passing
that island on tho Hocond day of tho
voyngo of tho .Teunotto to ono of the
outlying islands, ho decided to visit his
wife's tribe. Accordingly tho couple
woro put off in u small lioat, and it was
only n few weeks ago that tho stenmcr
mado a second call and learned their
fato. iy mistako thoy had landed on
an unfriendly Hhoro and were taken
prisonorfl.
Tho man was tied to a stnko nnd hiB
torturo begun. Tills consisted first In
allowing vicious jungle snnkes from
which tho poison fangs hud been re
moved to attnek tho man's lcgH.
Then a flro wus mndo at his feet nnd
his legs were horribly burned, though
tho injury wns superflcinl so thnt tho
victim would not dio under tho treat
ment. Then ho was mndo tho target
for tho spears of tho tribesmen, who
(inully killed him. Ho was torn to
pieces nnd pluced over n flro with two
sheep. In fact, nccording to tho Btory
ho was eaten with tho sheep.
In tho meantimo Amaru's wife had
been provided with another husband.
Tho matter wiib rcjiorted to a Uritisb

N. 15. Mlllor, prosident of tho Oro
gon Stuto Uoard of Horticulture, in a
recent paper, makes many valuublo
suggestions to tho fruit growers of tho
Northwest. Mr. Miller says:
Tlio prnno growors of Oregon oftor.
wonder why thoir French prunes do not
command as good a prico as tho Cali
fornia product. An examination of
tho ordinary mothoda of curing of tho
average Oregon prune growor explains
much of tho cause of this difference
in value.
I have just roturncd from a caroful
investigation of a number of pruno
dryers, und found much carelessness
and slovenliness. In tho first place,
thoy pick everything from tho ground
that thoy find thcro at tho first pick
ing. Somo aro half rotten, some half
dried, somo sunburnt, and almost all
immature or defective. Those aro dried
and go into tho bins with the general
crop. Then again a strong man goes
over the orchard, shaking the trees as
hard as ho can, bringing off tho prunes
in every stngo of ripeness, mnny of
them altogether too green to make a
good product. A dish of these prunes
will have about as many different
tastes or flavors as thero are prunes,
and nono of them will bo truly first
class. Many of these dryers are operated
in tho most careless manner, without
thermomctor to indicate the tempera
ture, and as a result, no two lots aro
cured equally; and so in tho drying, as
well as in the methods of gathering,
many varieties of flavor are developed.
After being cured they aro often
dumped into coal oil cases, dirty pick
ing Ijoxcb, and finally bring np in a
dirty barn for storage. Tho dirt and
filth alout some of these dryers is in
tensely disgusting.
Good fruit, clean nnd plenBant to tho
taste, nnd uniform in flavor and qual
ity, cannot be produced by such methods
nnd will not command a good prico in
tho market, and until better, cleaner
and more systematic work is done in
tho gathering, drying and packing of
our prunes, we will be far behind tho
California price.
In the first place, the Bunburnt, im
mature and partially decayed fruit
Bliould not be dried. Tlio trees should
not bo shaken, but the fruit should
ripen on the tree and be allowed to
drop, and in this way you will secure
uniformity of ripeness. A careful
uniformity of temperature for drying
should be maintained, and the fruit re
moved when it reaches a fixed stand'
ard.
Pruno buyers should examine the
quality of fruit much more carefully
than they do, and by variation in prices
reward tho careful nnd conscientious
producer for his good work. So fnr the
buyers have offered so much for dried
prunes, regardless of their real quali
ties. Associations for elevation of the
standard of the quality will do much
good. I realize that many of tho
fruitgrowers are doing good, conscien
tious work, and are turning out a first
class product; but I have been sur
prised at tho extent of careless methods
in gathering, drying and caring for tho
pruno, and desiro to urge upon nil the
utmost enre in every detail of produc
tion of tho pruno.
IllR Wool Hale.
The sale by Robert Noble, the Idaho
sheop king, of 1,000,000 pounds of
wool from Mountain Homo, Idaho, rep
resents tho largest amount of wool ever
sold at one time by an individual
grower. It represents the clips of
1807, 1808 nnd 1800. Tho wool was
sold to A. Schott & Co., of St. Louis
Tho prico to bo paid for the wool is
stated to be $160,000. The money
will bo paid in a few days and the wool
will be started to St. Louis as soon as
possible. It will require 50 cars to
movo it. Mr. Noble's clip next year
will amount to 500,000 pounds.

The Western Machinery Company's
plant at Tacoma, Wash., will bo sold

Chester, Conn., is tho highest biddor,
ho having offerod $7,000 for tho plant,
and unless a highor biddor steps in in
a fow days, tho court will accopt tho
offer of Mr. Hardy. Mr. Hardy is a
practical man and Bhould ho buy tho
plant ho will enlarge it nnd bring it
up to a high Btandard, bo that he can
do any marine work necessary. He
contemplates putting in a largo amount
of now machinery, which -will groatly
enlarge the capacity of tho plant.

BRADSTREET'S REVIEW.
Distributive Trade In Still of an En
couraging Volume.
PradstrcotB says: Distributive trado,
Tfhilo smaller at somo markets, ia still
of encouraging volumo, industry is ac
tive, railway earnings heavy, prices
Btill tend upward and bank clearings
increase, while failures lessen. Fall
festivals and other celebrations at sev
eral cities havo had an appreciable
effect ujion retail trado, and proved a
stimulating factor in wholesale lines.
Industrial activity is widespread, and
strikes aro fewer and less costly than
in most years. Though lessened by
holidays, bank clearings, swelled partly
by heavy October disbursements and
partly by general business expanding,
tend to enlarge as tho season advances.
Business failures nro apparently at
a minimum, and liabilities aro certain
ly less costly than for many years past.
Prices as a whole manifest aggressive
strength. Farm products are especial
ly prominent in this direction, the
South's greatest staple, cotton, owing
to short crop, advancing, and, owing
to active speculation leading in extent
of gain with an advance of nearly
a cent for tho week, of nearly 2 cents
as compared with a year ago and of
quite cents as compared with tho
low -water prico touched in the season
of 1808-0.
Iron and steel hold all of their old
strength.
Wheat (including flour) shipments for
the week aggregate 5,183,380 bushels,
against 3,872,455 bushels last week,
5,407,273 bushels in the corresponding
week of 1808, 4,823,401 bushels in
1807, 4,050,772 in 1800, and 2,244,328
bushels in 1805. Since July 1, this
6eason, the exports of wheat aggregate
55,000,413 bushels, against 52,408,121
bushels last year, and 60,080,412 bush
els in 1807-8.
