Those two star rutlama, Corbett
and Fitzsiinnions, are now engig-
ing in bur Mom brawls, pulling
noses slid spitting in each others
faces. Yet, in a couple of months
the press of the country, in report
ing their coming encounter at Dal

the public will encourage the news
papers by buying millions of extra
copies containing the report of the
brutal aff.'i.'.
In speaking of Mr. Cleveland be
ing a possible third term candi
date, ex-Secretary Whitney says:
"I think a majority of tlie demo
cratic voters of the country would
toll you they preferred Cleveland
to any other man' , On the other
bond, Henri Watterson is of the
opinion that "if by any concatenn
tinn of miracles Cleveland should
should be the nonrnee, he would
not carry a county in the United
States."
R. G. Dun & Co. Bay in their
Weekly Review of Trade issued
Saturday: "Business continues un
usually active for midsummer, and
though there is a perceptible relax
ation, there are no signs of reac
tion. The one change of great im
portance which the past week has
brought is the amicable settlement
between coal miners and employ
ers in Pennsylvania, Ohio and
Indiana. It is said about 100,000
men will have their wages in
creased after October 1, by this Adjustment.
The dense smoke that has filled
the air in this region for the past
two reeks comes largely from the
destructive forest fires over in
Western Washington, where mil
lions of feet; of valuable timber
have been desiroyed.andthehomeB
of many settlers laid waste. The
mountainous region west of Forest
Grove is also on fire and a great
deal of valuable limber has been
destroyed. - It is unfortunate that
the law against setting timber on
fire cannot be more rigorously en
forced. At the rate that forest
fires have been spreading for the
past few years the timber resources
of Oregon and Washington will
soon be seriously crippled. Some
thing should be done to'put a stop
to such criminal and wholesale
vandalism.

J he salmon nshing season on
the Columbia river closed Friday
night. The total pack is placed
at 492,200 cases.: There is little
doubt that the river has never
been more systematically fished
than it has'been during the pres
ent season. One of the extraord
inary features of this season's work
lias been the largely increased de
mand for Columbia river salmon
from Great Britain and the Conti
nent of Europe. This year 104,000
cases will lcavehere for foreign
ports,' as' against 26,500 in 1894, a
difference in favor of 1895 of 78,500
oases. So notwithstanding the
faot that 4000 more oases of
tnon havs bsen packed on th Co
lumbia this season, there will be s

us urams uie ingredient that was
left out of tlie loaves which were ex
hibited at the pure food ahowT
Kate Field's Washington. Four hun
dred competing loaves all fell short of
the standard, if It is reported fairly. It
is more generous to believe, however,
that the standard has been raised by
an intelligence which means to educate
the community.
In New York a few exclusive bakers
advertise "high-class bread" at high'
class prices; actually it is not too good.
But Drains in lioston, joined with broth'
erly kindness, have produced bread
which may challenge any competition
and which is sold to the public in tiny
loaves, perhaps better called long rolls,
at one cent apiece; faultless bread;
sweet as the wheat can make It, but not
sweeter; light and fine and close; u-
quisitely baked in the mild, slow heat
of b brick oven. This bread, such
the rich seldom taste, comes dally from
the New England Kitchen for all who
are so fortunate as to be able to send
for it. It is the produot of the intelli'
gence and philanthropy of a society for
the promotion 01 public health. When
the kitchen was organised a few years
ago its nrst six months' working
supervised by Mrs. Mary Abell, who
had taken the Lamb prize for an essay
upon sanitary and economia cooking,
This essay, accompanied by recipes and
menus for the poorest wage earners, is
among the publications of the Syracuse
public health society.
Proof of the economy and excellence
of the cooking of the delightful Boston
Kitchen may be made by anyone who
is hurrying, as 1 once was, to the Provi
dence depot without time for lunch and
with ideas above a railway station res
taurant. I was provided with a small
paper box. I bought one of the little
loaves I have just described; it nearly
filled the box. For another cent it was
buttered. What else could I catry? I
was ofiered a slice of spiced pressed
meat, such as is mode very poorly in
some houses and called veal loaf. But
that was not poor, but delicate and
savory. It was daintily wrapped in
white paraffine paper, all ready to be
handled neatly. This waa also one
cent. Here was a wholesome, delicate
and abundant lunch for three cents. I
thought of Franklin, opening his career
in Philadelphia with his big Dutch
penny roll, and, like him, I indulged in
some philosophizing. One hundred and
fifty years of what we call "progress"
separate us from Franklin. In those
years the era of homemade bread, with
that of homesnun clothing, has deport
ed. And still we have no good pnblio
bread only the chaffy and spongy
baker's loaf, overraised, nndermixed,
deceitful and dear. Poor men cannot
be fed with such bread, and so they
wash it down with spirits.
We are a groat people and we have
the greatest chain of lakes and the Wjy
gest rivers and the widest wheat-fields
on the globe; bat we are not able to
give the multitude bread until tt has
been turned into carbonic acid gas for
the profit of the bakers.
In feudal days the lord of the manor
had the monopoly of the oven; no bread
for the peasant but that which waa
baked in his oven, lly the Independence
and competition of the laborer we have
attained the privilege of starving our
selves. Is it not almost time to awing
back to the public oven, supervised by
the best intelligence of the community,
and secured against the greed of com
petition? There is not wanted free
bread to deprave the soul, or sour bread
to deprave the stomach, or high-class
bread to suit the rich; but honest
bread, fit to be called once more the
staff of life.

Auctioneers Talk of the Privet Bela of
lllch Men's Effects.
4 party of auctioneers en route from
Chicago to Buffalo were in the smoking
room of a Lake Shore sleeper the other
nilit telling stories. "Selling horses
and farm stuff by auction is all right,"
said one, "but for genuine fun give me
the private sale of a rich man's furni
ture. When Anthony Drcxcl died there
were a lot of things which had personal
reminiscences connected with them
winch everyone wanted. It was finally
decided to hold a family auction and
sell them to the highest bidder. The
first thing I put up was a small clock,
worth, I suppose, about twenty dollars.
" 'I'll give five hundred dollars,' was
the first bid. It came from a nephew.
" 'Make it one thousand dollars," in
terjected a younger soa.
"'Fifteen hundred dollars,' replied
the nephew.
"The nephew won and got the twenty
dollar clock for money with .which he
could have bought the finest clock In
Philadelphia. 1 never knew wliat the
hi story of the clock was, but it must
hure had a peculiar one. Then I put
up u big arm-chair. It was tho chair
1)voh'.!1 had sat in for over twenty years
and it hud a yalujible association for
each one of the family. 4 piarried
daughter and young Anthony Drexel
were the ones who wanted it the most,
and the bidding, which opened at one
thousand dollars, was spirited and
lively. I finally sold the chair to An
thony for six thousuwj five hundred
dollars. The day's sales brought jn
over twenty-five thousand dollars.

that," euid anothur auctioneer, "bntj
