If the pictorials from half-tone engraving !

may bo taken as n criterion of the resources
of any locality then surely Humboldt county
In California stands peerless among the

tainly the artistically executed work of 112
quarto pages appearing under the title "In
Redwood's Realm" reflects senulno merit
and actual resources In the county. Figures
may lie , but nature talking through photo
reproductions can have no motlvo to deceive
nor can the enormous outlay the work repre

It also boasts of the only safe harbor be

In "The Experimental Novel and Other

votes , the larger portion of his space to a
defense of-.realltim-4iv.both tlia.nove.1 and..lhc
drama. HoweveTjone . .may bo entertained'
by the niceties bTTlnt' dialectic distinctions
the Impression remains that the quarrel
between realism and romanticism is after
all a luise mountain of contention over a
microscopically small bone. There are
really no clean cut lines to separate the
two .schools and each partakes inoro or less
of the other. The bebt realism of one age
Is bound ultimately to becoino n st'lted plcco
of romanticism. Whether the purpose of the
novel Is merely to excite the Imaginative
and exalt the spirit , or to Impart Instruc
tion and shed a keener light upon the
world's mechanism , it cannot matter so much
what implements are used whether an arti
ficial storm Is raised and then dissipated or
whether the story Is made to end with
wreck. If the ultimate triumph of good
reflects the tendency In the age In which
the writer lives the artificial storm serves
Its purpose to excite Imagination nnd Its
dissipation closes the tale with a correct
reflection of the times und the story Is so
far realistic. A story may bs a literal copy
of lite and yet say practically nothing forte
to speak to the reader It must tell him
something new In contrast v/lth the
monotony ( to him ) of what he already
knows. The real teat of a story Is In the
Impression It makes and the degree In which
It Imparts new life to the reader , and the
distinction of realism Is practically of sub
ordinate consideration , In fact It rather
antagonizes the most desirable element that
gives vnlus to n novel originality. The
man who would walk a tight rope cannot
be searching the heavens for new stars.
There Is no question but realism IB desirable
and romanticism Is pardonable , but both are
subordinate tests of merit In literature.

The first fruit auction over hull ) In Omalni
came oft yesterday afternoon nt .ilU-Oll
Jonoa rtrcet , according to thu un
nonnccnicnt nmdo In thcsu columns
The Halo hail been arranga 1 for 2 p. in , , bu
the railroad company \vm Into In setting the
car , nml the Umo had to bu postponed null
: l o'clock. Sonic time before the hour o
sal' the dull was taken from tlio car ant
placed In separate plica or lots In Hie ware
house.
The offerings consisted of 1,280 boxes o
California cherries , arranged Into sixty-foil
lots of about twenty boxes each. The dlf
femit lots were nuinboicil from 1 to 01
the numbers being marked on the boxes
with challt. These numbers corresponded
to tlio numbers In a printed catalogue
which set forts the variety or the frull , the
brand and tlio number ot boxes In each lot
Among the 1,250 boxes there were six dif
ferent varieties of fruit. About 1,000 boxes
belonged to Hocco Uros. and tlio balance to
Strclght & Howes.
Ueforo the hour for the sale the pros
pcctlve buyers commenced to arrive. A few
boxes of each lot were opened as n sample
of the fruit , and then the buyers , armed will
catalogues , went over the different lots , not
ing the lots they would like to have ant
what they could afford to pay. While com
mission men , brokers and wholesale am
retail fruit men were engaged In this occu
pation a large crowd of peddlers watchct
operations from a respectful distance , chat
tering away nt each other In several different
languages , and all talking at the name time
They seemed to be wondering If anything
would bo found In the lot poor enough fern
n pcdillar to buy.
The Inspection of the fruit being ended
the crowd gradually gathered In the sales
room In the front of the building. This Is a
large room fitted up with school house desks
for the buyers and an elevated box for the
auctioneer. 1 > . R. Shoemaker mounted the
dais , supported on the right by 1C. 1) . Branch
as secretary , and Ned T. Woolworth on the
left as clerk. Calling the crowd to order ,
Mr. Shoemaker stated that spceclimaklng
would bo dispensed with , and he got down to
business Immediately by reading the follow
ing rules , which will govern the Omaha fruit
auction sales :
"All goods shall be sold for net cash. Bills
are due Immediately upon delivery of goods
and payment must be made at that time , II
requested , either by the credit committee or
by the receiver for whom said goods aic sold.
"Where the c'lolto ' Is given the lots shall
consist of twenty or more boxes , except Cali
fornia peaches , which shall conslht of fifty
boxes , and domestic grapes , which shall con
sist of 100 baskets. All lots of less amount
arc sold In one lot.
"A deposit of $50 will be required from all
Intending buyers not members of th § auction
company before the opening of the sale of
each day.
"All buyers must remove their goods the
same day of sale. Delivery will bo made In
rotation In the same order as sold.
"All goods shall be sold to the highest
bidder. In case of dispute , the austloneer
reserves the right to decide or resell.
"All fruits and other goods shall be sold
as they are. No claims whatever allowed.
"A sufficient number of packages for sam
ples of each lot will be opened for samples
of each lot will be opened for Inspection , and
ample time will be given buyers for examina
tion of contents.
"Tho giving of a receipt , on the part of-
the buyer or his agent , for goods bought ,
contltutcs a delivery and relleyes this com
pany of further responsibility.
"A broker , dealer or any person who pur
chases for another party who may or may
not be present at the sale , shall bo con
sidered as the agent of such party , and all
purchases made by such broker , agent or
other person , as heretofore mentioned , shall
be binding upon the party ho represents.
Buyers out of town , who have an estab
lished cred.t v/lth this company , when pur-
ctuijdin * through an agent , will have their
goods billed to them at sale prices. Agents
will charge brokerage to parties for whom
they purchase.
"Any buyer falling to comply with these
rules will not be recosn'zed in the future. "
The peddlers then started an advance move
ment from the rear and f = eon every window
opening Into the salesroom was darkened
with their faces. The auctioneer storied out
as If fruit sales had been his specialty all
his life , but the buyers were not quite so
well up In the business and seemed to be
afraid to let their voices bo heard. It was
hard work for .tho auctioneer to hear the
whispered bids of some , while others trusted
to nods of the head , and still others simply
raised their hands , which was Interpreted to
mean : "I will take that lot , or make that
bid. " The bashful feeling gradually were off ,
and buyers commenced to bid above a
whisper and the sale took on a more active
appearance.
One after another the different lots were
knocked down to the buyers and at the close
everything had been sold. The prices ranged
from 85 cents to $1.35 per box.
While there are only cherries to be had It
will be Impossible to hold an auction every
day , but as soon as peaches and other sum
mer fruits commence to arrive they will beef
of dally occurrence.
Crop I'm ports.
Reports received by the Omaha Elevator
company Indicate that there has been very
little change In the crop situation during
the present week. While the ground In most
sections Is very dry and rain Is badly needed ,
the weather during the week luis been so
cloudy that grain has not suffered from the
drouth as It would had the weather been
clear and warm. Corn , It Is claimed , has
thus far escaped any permanent Injury. The
frost cut It down In some sections , but with
out doing any harm aside from putting It
back somewhat.
During the past day or two rains have
been reported from Sliver Creek , Fremont ,
Rogers , Duncan and from some points In
the southern portion of the state.
A Xotul I.iitiiir Dispute.
There Is war In Hungary between the
government and the skilled laborers who
provide the reports of Its parliamentary
discussions. On the reassembling of the
Hungarian Parliament the gallery reporters ,
including the correspondents of the provin
cial , Vienna and foreign papers , Intend to
go out on strike. The government has some
jrlovanco against ono or two ot the reporters ,
and to punish the whole body It has decided
to block up the corridors , which liovo been
open for the last twenty-eight years , leading
From the two reporters' galleries to the
lobby and the rest ot the houso. In order ,
therefore , to roach their galleries , the re
porters will have to pass through bubtcr-
anenn corridors and to climb dark and
leep staircases. This they will be compelled
to do In the discharge of their duty , but
they have adopted a resolution that they will
confine. tliemtelvcH to recording the bare
leclslons of the House , mentioning no
names and leaving out debates of any sort.
I'hlH would naturally place the government
In a very unpleasant dilemma. A similar
strike , arranged yearn ago by the reporters'
gallery In Vienna , resulted In complete BUG-
: oss within twenty-four hours , and It Is
thought that the same Issue Is practically
assured In Buda-Pcsh.

A Philadelphia physician thinks that a
great deal ot nonsense has been written
about hypnotism. "Any ono , " lie sayi ,
"may hypnotize himself In a few minutes by
closing hlK eyes , directing them Inward
and downward , and then , Imagining his
breath to be vapor , watching Us Inhalation
and expulsion from the nostrils , Ilables In
variably look cross-eyed before going to
ileop. In this way producing what liynotltts
call 'transfixion. ' Fishermen often hypno

taco of shining v/atcr. An hour pauses by as

Mr. Harris's experience in the use of " Gold
