Mr. Savage's two plates of Jessie were the crack exhibit. A gentleman showed a .Wilson Plant with 108 berries on. The greenhouse exhibit by Mrs. J. V. Taylor was a splendid addition to tho omameutatlou of the fair. The beauty of Oregon Is that a great many wore wraps and light overcoats to tho wonderful rose and oerry fair. One large tray contained over 300 La France roses set in moss, all cut from one tree It was a rich altar of pale pink petals, exhaling vol umes of perfume. Mrs. F. B. Miz.e of South Salem contributed a rocker completely cov ered with roses. Tlio seat wus of dark red, the arms pink and the back white. "The Mattesou" was the favorite with btrawberry growers, and with all people who examined closely. Several boxes were consumed by admiring visitors upon Invitation of the originator. Miss Orvilla Baliou of Chicago showed work iu clay modeling, paper cutting, stitching and draw ing of tho strawberry, leaf and blos som, all done by children four to six years old. Tho State Agricultural college sent thirteen plates to the straw berry fair. They were the Dutter, Bomba, Warfield No. 2, Pineapple, Mammoth, May King, Haverlaud, VauDoinun, Cumberland, Hender sou, GlendaleJ Pearl. Prof. Coote deserves credit. The Bomba Is a rich variety for Oregon In every way. Mr. II. H. Ragan showed plates of Pearl, Jessie, Haverlnnd, liubach and Warfield. Tho bright red of the Bubach and Haverland, and beauti ful shape of the Pearl attracted uni versal admiration. C. M. Parmenter, Jus. Batchellor, Win, H.Jjaviigc and Chas. E. Rab- lln generously usslstedCouuty Treas- tnerCondit as aides, wearing blue sashes. They kept the best of order and also did good work in keeping the building clean and the exhibits iu good order. The committee on awards of strawberries had a difficult task, there being as high as twenty competitors in a single class. They worked hard two hours Friday und most of the day Saturday and made their awaids with great caie aiid Intelligence. A bigger place Is needed for. tbe rose show aud strawberry fair of the future. There were 300 exhibits of roses and 100 exhibltsof strawberries. The roso committee had a task that paralyzed their best intentions. R. D. Alien, secretary of the county fruit grower's association, came iu to arrange for paying the premiums aud will have everything ready sonip day next week. IT IS OVER. The lair closed at 4 p. m. The berries were auctioned ofl'to pay expenses, some single plales bring ing as high as 50 cts. and $1. The armory is being cleared for Co. B. to drill tonight. The fair has been a great success, considering that the date was changed, that It was got up on a week's notice, and was en tirelya volunteer aflair. Tbe strawberry and rose show was backed by no large society, or strong organization, A few gentle men aud ladies who are enthusiusts for fruits aud flowers, simply out of love for their pets and hobbles, ad vanced this first vencturo of this kind ever held In Salem. The specialists In two classes united their energies aud with the aid of public spirited citizens, tho result was the fair tuat all have seen and enjoyed so much. Tho Journal feels proud of the success and will labor for greater results in the future. THEY SAY. "' irtlf liJ! JiIii'ii lT im iiTriii MCMAHUN SHOOTS. Mr. Jap.

"Ono of P. T. Barnmn's most suc cessful feats of bamboozlomont," said a Now Yorkorthoothorday, "was played upon tho Canadian customs authori ties. Tho veteran showman's tours wero always planned far In ndvance, and ono winter ho mado up his mind to take his great circus and mcnngcrlo through Canada during tlio summer after tho next. Tills gave lihii about two years in which to mature his plans. "Ono important item of a showman's expenses c6nsists of his advertising placards, and Mr. Barnum was always lavish with tlioso gaudy prints. Ho was nwaro that tho Canadian govern ment imposed a high duty on tills class of imports, and yet ho wanted to paint Canada red. yellow, bluo and green with a lavishnoss that no showman had over displayodjJIJero before. "Now there was no printing houso anywhere In Canada that could begin to turn out tlio kind of work that Mr. Barnum required, cither in slzo, color or finish. Nevertheless, his immense post ers camo under tho same classification as much smaller lithographs and printed colored matter did, and ho know that tho Dominion custom authorities would not abate ono jot of tho full toll, but would rather rejotco at tho opportunity to mulct the foreigner who would con vey so much money out of a country. "So Barnum studied tho question a while, nnd finally sent on at onco a great lot of circus posters of tho most gorgeous designs, whereon yellow lions clawed striped tigers, and brown bears fought with bluo hippopotami till the goro flowed into beautiful crimson backgrounds. No agent nppearcd, when the posters were detained by tlio Canadian customs officers to pay tho duty. They wero accordingly held for twelve months, then duly advertised for sale for threo months more, and finally put up at auction with a lot of other unclaimed parcels, and were des ignated in tlio cataloguo merely as 'col ored prints.' "Nobody took any interest in tlieni when the auctioneer called for a bid, and finally tho wholo batch was knocked down for a song to u secrot agent of tho circus, who had boon sent up by Mr. Barnum for that express purpose." Now York Tribune. Received n a Private Individual. Ono of tlio authors of "Tho Czar nnd His People" gives tho following instanco of Tolstoi's independence of thought and action : General Loris MolikofI had been given such unbounded power to act against tho nihilists that, as ho said, ho was vir tually created vico emperor. Ho dis covered in tlio course of his ofllciul in vestigations that ono of tho leading ni hilist cliiefs was in tlio habit of visiting Tolstoi, and ono day Melikoff himself went out to tho novelist's country house. Bcforo tho visitor had an nounced himself Tolstoi recognized him and said : "You aro Loris MelikolT. Do you como to see mo officially or as a privato man! If you como officially hero aro my keys. Search, open everything. You aro freo to do so." "I do not como officially," replied Melikoff. "Very good," answered Tolstoi, and calling two stalwart servants ho said to them, "Throw this man out of tho houso I" Tlio order was obeyed to tho letter, and Melikoff dared not seek redress.
