tbe glories of natuie't oolori beauti
fully merged, Uud plenty to admire at
the Fruit Auction building, on
Franklin ttreet, in the exhibition of

Tbey were preparing for tbo exhibi
tion today, and tbe growing piles of
linn, perfectly formed fruit were al
luring. There were strata of Gloria
Mundta, as white aa tbe auow-clad
mountains which overlook tbe plateau
on which tbny were rou. There
weie rowt of Ualdwlna, at rich in col
or as old mahogany, and there were
(Jan t, red ta ox blood. Tboie were
huge banana applet, too, vllo.
speckled with red; there were Ortleyn,
Wolf Rivera, Spitzenberga. an little
red and green Cbriatmaa applet,
wblcb twinkled ai brightly aa Santa
CUoa'e eyes.
Certainly it ia a most Inspii log ex
hibition of appl' a. Tbey rama from
Oregon packed in cotton-lined boxes
and bairels, and were bandied by the'
exbibitort with all possible rare. ;
Throughout tbe big room wai the i
fragrant odor of tbe fruit, and while i
the beauty and tymetry of tbe ai plet!
made tbe thought of eating them al
most a sacrilege, yet tn ciariug to
eat ot tbeoi prrailed over the finer
emotiona.
