GOSSIP ON COMMISSION ROW
ata,' Are .Canting? In. from. the Woods
for Thanksgiving and""-'
Christmas.
The closed season for the various kinds
of nuts is .over, and the market hunter la
bringing a supply and the commission men
ar not afraid to handle them. A lovely
assortment was displayed Tuesday
all representatlvea of the new crops. Per
hap the cleanest and freshest looking of
the bunch were the California almonds.
Beautiful. They are both soft shell and
hard, the first being considered the most
refined. They are going to make a nice
little rate to the grocers of from to IS
cents according to the number taken
.ater on we may expect the nuts from
Spain, which are perhaps a little better In
the soft shell game. The new Alberts can
only talk to the other nut In the sign
language, for they come from eiclly. They
are lovely this year, but only intend to
sell for 11 or 12 cents, because there are yet
plenty of old ones on hand. The new Bra-
sill and the. Chile walnuts get on fine to
gether and will mingle In many a nut
uiidae and caromel. Tho South American
walnuts are jobbing at 12 or 13 cents, ac
cording to quality. Of the bleached and
perhap aweeUr California walnuts, none
are now for sale. Thu old Brazilians have
practically succumbed to the hardy north
ern appetite, so that new-comers will cash
In at a 11 H to 12i wholesale price. Texas
Is the birth-place of the pecans which havs
Invaded the market. Something in the
early life of these nuts has caused, them to
nclrcle themselves with a bitter shell of
pessimism, but when this is penetrated
they ar found to be indeed likeable. For
commercial purposes they are rated a
mediums, large and gumbo and are marked
to sell at from 10 to li cents. The new
chestnuts which have come to spend the
winter are very handsome and sound and
will make a very pretty dining room picture
framed with a bunch of rulttlns. Chest
nut ar southerners and do a 14 to 15
cent wholesale business, imported bulls-
eye chestnuts are not due until Christmas
Cocoauuts will be In next week to return
th star of the curious with unblinking
eye. The black walnuts do not put on
any side about foreign ancestors, but they
get In the cake just th same.
Now Is tha busy season for the nut as
the grocers are stocking up for winter's
business. Th Thanksgiving and Christmas
seasons will cut a big hole in the store
and buslneas will continue brisk all winter,

Many drink tea And coffee against their

They know that' by . the use of tea and

but they struggle along and continue to
use one or the other. ' To these people
Postum Cereal Coffee Is a great help for

Th effect upon those who leave oft tea

as heart trouble, kidney disease, nervous

school miss of Alva,. Okla., say of Postum
I have used It now for over a year and
my complexion and general health show
the change. Before that time I drank
tea and coffee and my complexion was sal
low and muddy. I also had almost, con

must give up tea and coffee but hung onto
them because I felt the need of a hot drink
at meal times.
"One day I heard Postum so well spoken

I did so. I dropped coffee and took up
Postum and now my dull headaches have

ROSEBERY ON FREE TRADE

British Empire.
QUESTIONS FACT OF FISCAL INQUIRY
Liberal Leader Replies to tkambtr
lain In speech Which Reflects the
rretalllnsj Opinion, of Ills
Political Associates.
l.OXDON, Oct. 13. Lord Roscbery spok
tonight at' Sheffield, whither he went' In
order to definitely record his opposition to
Mr. Chamberlain fiscal . policy. ' He was
greeted with the utmost euthusiasm by an
Immense audience, which he held In mpt
attention for an hour and a half.
His lordship delivered a characteristic
speech of brilliant rhetorical denunciation
of protection, interspersed with clever and
caustic 'allusions to Mr. Chamberlain and
the predicament In which he had placed th
government. 1
The earl said he doubted If there had
ever been any fiscal Inquiry. The ministry
had probably "Investigated, not the nation's
commerce, but the constituencies. H dep
recated a policy of retaliation which would
land the empire In a contest with every na
tion in the civilised world, a contest to
which Artnagadon would be a friendly
Joust. He held that free trade had not
failed, but had been a great success. - The
ew policy Instead of . solidifying would
tend to dislocate and probably dissolve the
empire. ,
His lordship warned his hearers that they
could not try such a policy and drop It If It
failed. Protection once established could
not. be uplifted and would bring In It train
trusts, monopolies and probably corruption.
If the c6nntry wanted to better Itself, ha
continued, let It cultivate a scientific; snlrit
nd better education, and above nil keep
the universe for a reservoir of food and
raw mntertal.
Think Colonies Not I'aselfiah.
He ridiculed the idea that the .colonics
would consent not to establish new Indus
tries for the benefit of the United King
dom. A fair and practical Imperial tariff
could not be devised and heaven protect
them from the bad blood and jealousies that
such an attempt would engender. He was
very doubtful about the proposition that a
fiscal should precede a political union.
In any event what Mr. Chamberlain's
friends Ignored was that everything In the
empire had been strong and successful, be
cause It. wa free and spontaneous, lord
Rosebery quoted Sir Wilfrid Laurier to the
effect that not restricted trade, but only
the most absolute freedom, political and
commercial,, would succeed In building up
the empire. ..
In conclusion, his lordship said that he
could not forget the long agony with which
the nation had passed from the protective
system, which -had brought It from the
verge of famine and ruin Into the better
nd freer conditions now prevailing. They
could not risk this splendid result on a
hazard of the political die. They could
not leave . the brilliant known under any
guidance of prophetshlp for tho dark un
known. A storm of cheers greeted the
carl's closing remarks.
Some tirW Officials.
Lord Londonderry has been appointed
lord president of the council In succession
to the duke of Devonshire.
It Is understood that his lordship will
retain 'the portfolio of education and hi
new appointment will thus make little
practical difference to his position In the
cabinet. " '

THINK1 CRABTREE IS INNOCENT
Snperln-fendent Pearse and Others Do
Sot Relievo ' Reports of
Dapllclty.
Members of the Board of Education and
officers of the school district of Omaha say
that J. W. Crabtree. inspector of accredited
high schools for he University of Ne
braska,' has never sought to use the In
fluence of his position with them to se
cure the employment of teacher from his
agmcy. That the Inspector would be In a
position to do so If he desired, the author
ities deny. His friends here say they do
not believe he is guilty of the coercion
charged by W. D. Smith of St. Helena in
a signed letter to The Bee. Superintendent
Pearse said:
It Is true thit Mr. Crabtree and Mr,
Towne are Associated not only In a teach
ers employment bureau, but in a period
ical called the Nebraska Teachers, and a
publishing business as 'well. ' Mr. Crab-
tree, by Virtue nf his position as Inspector
of high schools. Is In a position to grant
favor to school boards If he so desire,
but I have never heard ' that he used his
plabe 'as a club.' The fact that scores of
university 'graduates are being employed
throughout the state without any connec
tion with ahe agency ' would seem to In
dicate that the reports' ate false. So far
as Omaha Is concerned We have employed
twenty or more university graduates as
teachers since the Crabtres-Towne' agency
was Start!, nnd I think on one occasion
only was the applicant recommended by
the bureau. If th charges made by Mr.
Smith are true It seems strange that
have not heard something about them from
other school men In the state. Knowing the
inspector as I do, I doubt the truth of the
statements."
A member of the Omaha board, who ia
one of the high school committee, said:
"Inspector Crabtree never has tried to use
any influence over the committee In se
lectlng teachers and never even suggested a
name. It would be useless for him to try
to force anyone upon Us. He could not
discredit the local high school even though
he wanted to. As Inspector of schools Mr.
Crabtree examines and determines whether
or not graduates may enter the State
university without passing a test of scbol
arshlp. The standing of the local high
school would prevent , any lnt position of
thi kind." .

County Commissioners, is In receipt of In
quirles from heavy feeders of live stork in
Germany, soliciting Information a to the
quality of the 103 corn crop In this state.
Mr. Hofeldt on his recent vlwlt to Ger
many, bis native heath, was surprised to
discover the extensive growth of the live
stock industry, with especial reference to
hogs, cattle and horses. Great care was ob
served In tho rearing of hogs and in the
effort to prepare them quickly for an early
market. To that end they were fed on corn.
the major portion of which Is being pur
chased in thla country. The Introduction
of the American hog into Germany ha
cauaed th Germane to attempt the rearing
of th bog on large scales,
Cleanliness being regarded as an essential
to the procuring of a good market and
ready sales, th more extensive breeder
hav housed their hogs ia spacious brick
buildings and from luo to 100 hoga are fed
in each of these. Corn Is not cultivated to
any extent In. Germany and Iteavy pur
chases are made Jn the I'nlted States. . Mr,
Hofeldt conferred with a-number of. the
leading breeders while In Germany and
now in eorrenpoudf nc with them relatlfe
to this year's com crop. The reports which
Mr. Hofeldt Is making to the Inquiries from
his fatherland sre not the most encourag
ing, as the conditions hav not been such
as to permit of tho best crop this year. He
hns therefore advised his friends across the
waters to buy all the old corn they may
need. The crop this year, according to Mr.
Hofeldt'a view of the matter, ts not large
and has not ripened satisfactorily.
It waa Mr. Hofeldt belief that the rais
ing of the hog In Germany ia conducted on
more scientific, and hygienic principles than
in this country and he expect to see th
day when the heavy Importations of pork
to Germany will bo merely nominal.
REMODEL ANDSUBMIT PLANS
City Knglneer Rosesvater Decides to
Go Over All Paving Speci
fications. City Knglneer Rosewater has announced
that ho will again remodel the paving
specifications and agsln submit them to
he Board of Public Works, after making
all the concession to th Ideas of the
other members that he can. It Is the In
tention of the engineering department to
have the specifications adopted for the re
mainder of 1903 and 1804 so that paving
may be started early next spring and all
preliminary arrangements made during
the winter. According to the paving men
there will be between 60,000 and 100,000
yards of street flooring put down next
year if arrangements are made so that
petitions can be filed and acted upon.
It now requires nearly ninety days from
the time of filing a petition until the work
s advertised for. Once the specifications
are adopted, It Is thought petitions will
reach the city clerk's office In great num
bers, and tho winter may be utilised in
getting things under way for early work
next season.
