Commissioner Merritt of Sahta | Barbara has been distributing ripe | olives to visitors, and nearly every Easterner who samples them says he had never tasted any before and is sur- prised that he has remainkd in ignor- ance of their excellence so long.

JUNE SALE of MUSLIN UNDERWEAR First you must know that the qual- ity is not ordinary. We have no room receive orders as a direct result of the fair. A man of moderate means who said he wanted to buy a small fruit orchard and spend the rest of his days on it was impressed by Alameda County's exhibit and catechized Commissioner Weilbye. “Is there anything there.the children can work at during vacation?” was his final query. “Is there?” counter-queried Weilbye. “You just bring along your own and your neighbor’s children and all the rest of the youngsters in your State, and I'll guarantee every one of them a job picking fruit.” The stranger was incredulous for a clean, well ventilated many seasons fruit actually rotted be- cause of lack of labor to gather it. The Easterners form some misconcep- tions, like those that grew when Cali- fornia was only a golden El Dorado | and it was thought one could take a buckskin bag and gather enough nug- gets anywhere before breakfast to ob- viate the necessity of working for a year. Now an impression is gaining ground that city life in California is rendered uncomfortable in winter be- cause the December rains knock the ripening fruit from the apricot and peach trees that line the streets, caus- | ing the choking of surface drains and an overflow of the thoroughfares.

Davis & Co. Srant HAve. California canned fruit has one ele- ment of unpopularity, in that the can- ners are unable to put enough in one can. When a two-pound can of Call- fornia peaches is opened and only three peaches are found in it the East- erner is prone to think he has gone against a confidence game, though he has to acknowledge that the scales | show proper weight. From San Francisco is coming one of the most notable displays the Louisiana Purchase Exposition will contain. The wonderful Benquist collection is tg be brought here and shown In a structure that will have a place of honor in front of the Administration building. There are many people in San Francisco who do not know of this rare congress of relics, valued at $1,000,000, that now re- poses in the Benquist home, at 920 Ful- ton street. It is the result of years of expert collection by Hadji Ephraim | Benquist, who moved to San Francisco in 1894 from Boston, where he was known as the “beggar for museums,” and Vitall Benquist, his brother, who is a connossieur will known throughout June Sale of White Goods A contribution of three items from the White Goods Sec- tion, all at 11¢.

It was a present from ione rufer to another, and in it is woven a message of greeting. It was thus in the days before wireless telegraphy and the American district tortoise came into general use that the Em- ' | perors communicated with each other. | | The housewife who wanted two loaves | of bread at the baker’s simply stitched | in her order on a remnant from the ! bargain counter and sent it down by | the hired man. | The Benguiat family has in‘the ‘ | Smithsonian Institution at Washington | |a collection of Jewish religious relics | that has formed the subject of maga- zine articles. It is very valuable. The | Boston Museum also contains many | | curios collected by Hadji Benguiat. | “There is nothing in the collection | for sale,” said Mordecai Benguiat. ““My father takes great pride in it and wili | make the exhibit to educate the pub- | lic. Every one can be taught to know | at once the difference between a rare | and an inferior article, and all can| become connossieurs if they will only observe.” One of five brothers who conduct an extensive fruit exchange in the principal cities of Australia is visiting {the fair. In conversation with Dr. H. C. Dimock, representing Santa Bar- bara County in the Horticultural building, he said actual analysis show- ed that the California lemon contained fourteen per cent more acid and sixteen per cent more juice than the Cicily pro- duct. His firm secures all its lemons from Fresno and Tulare counties. ' He said exporters should be careful to properly “‘cure” their lemons for ship- mént, as losses injured the trade. Osmun Johnson, a wealthy Stanis- laus County farmer, whose wealth has been greatly augmented by the new irrigation systems there, is here with his family, after a tour of Europe. Johnson is sorry his county made no special exhibit at the fair, and says it is destined to become one of the greatest in the State. Thomas Magee Jr. .and George ‘Whittell of San Francisco are among the Exposition visitors. J. E. Crump, the Acampo, San Joa- quin County, olive ofl producer, is here with his wife. : Fred Esola, formerly a police cap- tain in San Francisco, is prominent among the World's Fair concessioners.

Apportionment of Meetings NO FURTHER JEALOUSY Telegrams Sent to Gather- ings in the 'East Extend- ing Hearty Invitations Representatives of California, Oregon, ‘Washington, Colorado, Utah and Idaho met in the California Promotion Com-= mittee’s rooms yesterday afternoon and dfscussed the advisability of trying-to secure conventions for the = Pacific Coast during this and next year. The conclusion was reached that efforts should be made to bring people from the East, and as a result of that under- standing 106 conventions are to be gone after. Of that number California is to try for fifty-three, Oregon thirty-three on account of the Lewis and Clark Falr, ‘Washington fifteen, Colorado two and Idaho twe. Texas has already secured one convention. The object of the meeting yesterday ‘was to bring about united action on the part of the Pacific Coast commercial bodles in order that better results ight be obtained and all matters of Jealcusy smothered. Tom Richardson, manager of the Commercial Club of Portland, represented the northern States, and was emphatic as to the _privilege of having the best go to Portland during the Lewis and Clark Fair. ’ In that particular the balance of the representatives were willing to concede to him, and Oregon will have a clear field to get the apple growers, Agricul- tural Press League, apple shippers, Builders’ Association, Collegiate Alum- nae Assocjation, Christian MiS¥tomery, Bociety of America, Christian Women's Board of Misslons, Civil Engineers’ So- clety of America, cement workers, Canadian Press Association, California Press Association, dental tongress, electrical contractors and electrical en- gineers, Electric Light Association, International Congress of Engineers, electrotypers, good roads meeting, Horseshoers’ National Association, In- terparliamentary Union for Interna- tional Arbitration, League of American Municipalities, National Music Teach- ers, Malsters’ Association, Millers’ Na- tional Federation, operative millers, pri- vate school managers, Sons of the American Revolution, United Commer- cial Travelers' Association, United Ty- pothetae of America and the World's Press Parliament.

In assigning the different chances to the States it was understood that no other locality would make a bid for the convention. It is expected that such an agreement will result in great good to the entire Pacific Coast. Each State will name the place to which the con- vention is ta go in the event of the or- ganization accepting the invitation. This will be the first time that such concerted action has been attempted, and according to the men that have the matter in hand will greatly simplify the matter of selecting convention citles.

A tele- graphic message was sent to Chief Wittman in St. Louis and to the con- vention of chiefs of police asking that the next gathering be held in San Francisco.
