CALIFORNIA’S PRIDE. Great Display of Fruits and Flowers at Sunset City. INTERESTING EXHIBITION Cf tbe Agricultural and Horti cultural Resources of the Golden State. None of the structures at California’s Midwinter exposition will lie more dis tinctively Californian than the Agricul tural and Horticultural building. It is the third in size of the buildings, and its dimensions are about 400 by 200 feet. Its architecture is of the style in which the early padres loved to erect their mission buildings, with low round arches and flattened domes, a style that was peculiar to early California, and is there distin guished as the “mission,” in much the same way and with quite as much cor rectness as the people of older states ■peak of certain architectural • forms as The structure is, however, xnu'cirxnorc ornate and fanciful in its decorations than the early examples of the padres’ work, which were severely and' characteristically plain. But if the building is distinctively Californian in its architecture, it will be hardly less so in the character of the products therein displayed. All the world is free to send exhibits, and Flori da, Mexico and Japan have already an nounced their intention of disputing Cali fornia’s boasted supremacy in oranges. Other nations will no doubt be ready to /'s’* MAIN’ ENTRANCE TO HORTICULTURAL BUILD ING. do so in the matter of prunes, raisins, figs and the other dried fruits, but the ; perishable nature of most of the mate rials, even with the advantage of cold storage which will be accorded them, will necessarily restrict the competition tp localities from which the diSplays can be replenished as occasion requires. This will give the California counties mani fest advantages which they will not be slow to act upon, for they are never slow in anything. In the showing of dried and canned fruits, however, they realize that they must do their best in a competition with the older, though less favored, localities in which the different varieties have been made specialties, and in these lines they have devised some surprising things. Fresno county, the greatest raisin district in the world, for instance, is to have a model of her beautiful court house, the body of the building to be constructed of raisins and the dome of oranges. The dimensions of the model will be 50 by 40 feet, and the dome will be 45 feet in height. There will be plen ty of room inside for visitors, and the structure will have to be watchfully guarded lest visiting vandals actually eat it up. There has been an orange war in Cali fornia for several years. Outsiders do not know much about it unless they, have visited the coast or take some California paper, for Californians never mention it when they go away from home. In fact, Californians on their travels forget all about sectional jealousies and neigh borhood quarrels and speak of the entire, big state as if it were their homestead, in every acre of which have a*' reversionary interest. But orange war has been waging aavertqH less, though it may be considered a fra ternal rather than a fratricidal strife, and mention of it is made here, not for the sake of calling outside attention to it, but to show how it is to benefit the whole state. It, is like thijc There are in California two separate and distinct citrus belts— meaning tiers of. counties in which or anges, lemons and other semitropical fruits can be grown. One of these is in the northern half of the state and em braces the counties of Colusa, Yuba, Butte, Solano, Placer, Sacramento and Napa. The other is in the extreme south ern part of the state and includes the counties of San Luis Obispo, Santa Bar bara, Ventura, Orange and San Diego on the coast and Kern and San Bernardino in the interior. Between these two sec tions the greatest rivalry exists as to which raises the best fruitsand offers the most inducements to intending settlers. Strange to sav. oranges sometimes rinen —upon you before you know it. It is sure to be in the air we breathe, the water we drink. The germ of consumption is every where present. The germ begins to grow as soon as it reaches a weak spot in the body. Catarrh, Bronchitis, and a scrofulous condi tion, furnish these weak spots. The way to fight these germs— brain early —render the liver active and purify the blood with Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. Besides, it builds up healthy flesh. . It’s guaranteed in all bronchial, throat and lung affections; every form of scrofula, even Consumption in its earlier stages. If the “Discovery” fails to benefit or cure, you have your money bock. Fortify yourself disease by making the body germ-proof, then you will save yourself from grip, malaria, and many of the passing diseases. — Too well known to need lengthy advertise ments—Dr. Sago’s Catarrh Remedy. earner m rue nortnern oeit, ana much has been made of this fact. It has been the custom for each of these belts to have every year a citrus fair of its own, and the displays thereat have seemed simply marvelous to people who live where oranges, lemons, figs, raisins and such things don’t grow. This year, however, incited by the general enthusiasm for the Midwinter fair which pervades the state, both belts have agreed to hold their citrus fairs in the Sunset City. and each has been assigned a loca tion near the Agricultural building. Their displays, combined with those of other localities and with the transcendent flor ’ possibilities of the entire state, will give eastern visitors a newer and more adequate idea of what the Californian means when he calls his state “the land of sunshine, fruji and flowers.” Altogether as if the entire Golden State were “out for a good time,” as the Native Sons jovially express it, for much is being maqe of the amusement features of the exposition, and the San Francisco papers devote a great deal of ipace to informing the world at large what fun as well as instruction can be lad at the Sunset City. H. T. White. The Athens of the South. And now <pmes the Memphis - Com mercial prcjfcsHßHng that Memphis is tlie”Athens of the south.” It is a lit tle late in filing its claim, but we trust that it will be duly considered. There is not a city or town in the whole southern country, scarcely a village or hamlet, that can boast of a high school, an academy, a college or a university, a reading club or a literary society, that does not boast of being the “Athens of the south.” Meanwhile Knoxville continues to be the “Athens of the south. ” —Knoxville Tribune.

An Englishman who has been visit ing in Chicago says it is very amusing to listen .to the American ridicule of Englishmen for pronouncing Cholmon deley ‘‘ Chumley, ’ ’ Beaqchamp ‘ * Beech am,” etc.. "In England,” ho declares, “you will find, as a rule, that people prdnounce Massachusetts ‘Ma-satch azettes. ’ Absurd? Os course it is, but how'are you going to tell? The rule by which it is pronounced * Massachusetts’ is purely arbitrary. The most curious of all your mispronounciations are per haps the adopted French names. How in the name of the eternal fitness of things do you get ‘Soo Saint Mary’ out of Sault Ste. Marie? ‘Terry Hut’ for Terre Haute is just a little worse. It is unaccountable, too, how you came to call Prairie du Chien ‘Prairie doo Sheen. ’ Os course you have a right to arrange your own pronounciation, but give us the same liberty. We at least have the excuse that our names are 10 or 15 centuries old and have had oppor tunity to grow naturally corrupted in the lapse of time.’’—ChicagoStandard. ThIMOME TBIBUNK.
