Prob ably ninny millions of people In the United States nntl In foreign coun tries would say they hnve. They nrvcr woro moro mistaken In tlielr live, however, for no les an au thority than tho I'nlted States gov ernment Itxelf says In substances that nil these pcoplu hnvo been dreaming. TJiry have been entlng tho Ksonua nud nil tho rraUes that havo been gleu tho SplUcnburg belong to tho lormer. Tho Rovomment has slRnlfled Us Intention of seeing that you will not cnt nnymrtro Spltrcnburga hereafter nlthough tho same authority has already declared that you havo never eaten one. Tho old nnmo that is known fnr and wide In trade circles 08 tho "Spitz" will hereafter havo a tlllo thnt will sound something llko soap. Means Illg To to Growers Puro food officials signify that tboy nro not Joking, however, and that troublo may bo In store for applo shippers who persist In believing that they arc growing tho Spltxcnburg ap ple and continue to label their fruit as such. Tho reputation of tho Pacific northwest as an applo grower has been secured greatly by the fame that has coma from tho shipment of tho Spitronburg beg pardon, tho Esonus; and tho forcing of tho lat ter name upon tho labols will prob nbly mean tho loss of millions of dollars to Pacific northwest applo growers. Tho wrath of tho government is called forth by a published booklet Issued by tho North Pacific Distribu tors which Is said to contain many names of aples that aro false. OrfRon Hods Ben Davis Perhaps If you havo not eaten a SplUcnburg, you thought maybo that somo tlmo or other an Oregon Red had .tickled your palate. You're wrong again, for tho government says that what tho Prtclflc northwest calls an Oregon Hod is nothing moro or less than a Baldwin. For years Hood ntver has been shipping Its apples of this variety that aro 00 per rent red, as Oregon Reds and tho fruit has secured quite a reputation. Tho Oregon Beauty, so called by tho trado hero, Is no more. This var- loty never existed according to an official of tho government. Its namo Is Ren Davis. Tho DIack Ben Davis and tho Arlsto Rlack which have been marketed by tho Pacific northwest, aro officially consigned to tho junk heap, for tho government insists they aro mlsbrandcd unless called tho Gano. ATLANTA, Gn., Oct. 10. I.oo M. Frank, youthful superintendent of tho National Pencil company, today paid tho extreme penalty for tho brutal murder of l"-yenr-old Mary Plmgnn, who workod In tho factory for a fow dollars a week. Frank, who was sentenced to death on August ST, af ter a trial lasting flvo weeks, leaves a mother nnd young wife who live In Urooklyn, N. Y. Frank's crime was particularly revolting little Mnry Phagan's body bearing evidence of the fight she had made to preserve her honor, was found In the cellar of tho pencil fac tory, of which he was superlntondout nnd his uncle is prrsldent. At first the potlro wero completely baffled. Then came stories from girls In tho fnctory that they had frequently seen younger girl employes called Into Frank's office after the factory hnd closed at six o'clock. On those occasions, the girls said, a negro guard stood outside Frank's door. Tho visitors alwns went In singly. Somo of these visitors wero located by the police. They told tho details of their visits and Frank was ar- rested after ono of them said Mary! had told her she was going to sco Frank.

PORTLAND, Oct. 10- Tho first two carloadH of Roguo River Cornice pears havo reached tho Loudon mar ket and hnvo found the trado In an appreciative mood. Tho two cam wero whipped by tho Roguo River Fruit & Produce association under Its ltluo Triangle brand, through tho Northwestern Fruit exchange of thin city. The first sales worn iiiadn at $3.00 for half boxos. Tho fruit ar rived In excellent condition and was cnKorly sought by tho trade of tho world's metropolis. Tho pear situation nt homo has boon somowhat conflicting. Today tho Northwestern Fruit Kxchaugo ot this city mado public the report that It had Just sold to n Toituotisco In terest, n carload of Winter Nulls pears from North Yakima. Tho sale was mado at I 'J. 10 per box, notwith standing tho furl that the hulk of tho crop ot that section has been freely offered at fl.SR lo $1,40 a box nud actually sold at that range. It appears that pear growers of tho Pacific northwest havo lost con siderable money this season ns n re sult of tlielr shipping Interests not being In a position where they could command tho price that tho fruit wan really worth. Tho loss on this account will reach hundreds of thou sands of dollars. Tho salo of tho North Yakima stock by tho local exebango Indicates tho strength of tho market for Winter Nells pears uvcti though growers hnvo vied with ono another In offering their product nt much less money Tho situation Is considered tho best In )enrs and only by faulty market ing did many growers recelvo smnll minis for their fruit this season 1 1 ' Hero's n nuro food movement!
