J.Harvey, Secretary, Building Committee, DELICATE CARE IN FRUIT HARe VESTING. California Oranges Picked by Experts Wearing Gloves—Other Interesting Points. There 1s no crop in the world that is handled so tenderly as oranges, accord- ing to the latest government report on the industry in California. First, the fruit is carefully taken from the trees by experts wearing gloves. Thery great pains are taken in the sorting, the cholcest oranges of all being set aside to be placed in “Sun- kist” wrappers. Before being wrapped, however, the frult s “wilted,” all the moisture being absorbed from the skin. Then comes the polishing process, after which the choicest oranges are placed upon soft pads to prevent bruising. A few min- utes later they are packed. “Sunkist” oranges are always picked and shipped the same day. ae) GRAIN AND PROVISION PRICES Minneapolis Wheat.

GIVEN A HEARTY SENDOFF Great Crowd of Officlals and Citizens Gathers at the Station at Cairo on the Departure of the Distinguished American for Alexandria, Where the Party Went Aboard the Steamer Bound for Italy. Alexandria, March 31, — Former President Roosevelt, Mrs. Roosevelt, Kermit and Miss Ethel have salled for Naples on the steamer Prinz Hein- rich. The Roosevelts were given a hearty sendoff when they left Cairo by train for Alexandria. Among the communications received by Colonel Roosevelt was one from the headquarters of the American mis- slon, thanking him for generously ac- ceding to the request that he visit the mission stations and also for his aid in the work of redeeming Egypt. The message continued: “We deeply appreciate the noble sentiments voiced throughout your ad- dress at the National university, which must have a most wholesome and last- ing effect upon the life of this coun- try. Your visit has made us doubly proud and thankful that we are Amer- icans.” There was a great crowd at the sta- tion to witness the departure of the distinguished American, whose pres- ence fn the Egyptian capital has been of absorbing interest to all. Sir Elden Gorst, British agent and consul gen- eral in Egypt, was not present, but he sent General Maxwell to pay his re- spects and to say that he was unable to express his appreciation of all that Mr. Roosevelt had done for the civill zation of Egypt. The khedive sent a representative to extend his compliments to the de- parting guest and the members of the diplomatic corps generally were pres- ent. . As the train drew out of the sta- tion a large party of Egyptians raised a cheer. DULUTH'S LID FITS TIGHT City at Head of Lakes Undergoing a Moral Cleaning. Duluth, March 31-—Duluth now boasts of the tightest “lid” in the state of Minnesota and it has been brought about so quietly that few but the old time “rounders” realize it. The state liquor laws aré being enforced to the letter, even the fashionable cafes re- fusing to sell liquor after closing hours and on Sunday. “Blind pigs,” which flourished in the Austrian and Italian boarding houses, are being raided al- most daily and the police are not con- tent to.let the offenders off with a light fifie, but are taking the cases be- fore the grand jury. Immoral women are being herded into police court and either sent to jail or run out of town. The resorts; which were for years no- torious, are closed down and on the whole the city is experiencing a moral cleaning such as it has not had before in its history.
