The beautiful Queen's park and University oval, which furnish a roadway around adjoining circles of over two miles, were utilized for tbe exhibition. Throughout the length of this route were ranged upwards of five hundred horses and carriages which were entered in the show. Sim ultaneously several score of expert judges began their work and in less than an hour the prizes had all been awarded. Then the whole exhibition moved in procession around the oval and passed in review before the Gov ernor General Lord Minto, and other dignitaries who occupied the review ing stand. The exhibition afforded an interesting illustration of the im portance of Toronto as a centre of the horse-breeding industry and at the same time gave enjoyment to up wards of two hundred thousand per sons who lined the two mile route. It is estimated that upwards of 10,- --000 former sons of Toronto were pres ent from Chicago. Detroit. New York.

State Grain Commissioner Arra smith returned to the city yesterday after an extended trip through the wheat growing counties of Eastern Washington, saysd the Tacoma Ledg er. The commissioner devoted his at tention particularly to the conditions prevailing in Whitman and Spokane counties. "I found." said he. "that the grain in Whitman and Spokane counties had suffered less from the warm wave than it did further west. The weather conditions for the past in days have been very favorable and what is needed over there now is a good rain of from 24 to 48 hours' dur ation. Such a rainfall would soak the ground and increase the grain output 25 per cent. The grain in these two counties is a little late and for that reason the hot wave did not injure it, still it had the effect of retarding its growth. "Farther west the crops were far ther advanced and accordingly suffer ed. If the hot wave had continued, the farmers in those sections would have had no prospects at all. It was very bad while it lasted. If they had some of the rain that has been falling in •this county it would be worth hun dreds of thousands of dollars. "The trouble over there is that there is no general rain. It comes in streaks and spots. Last year a good steady rain fell in Whitman July 2 and 3. and helped the farmers wonderfully, for the grain was just beginning to fill. Some of the fields after that rainfall yielded 50 bushels to the acre; with out it they would not have yielded more than 40. A general rain is the thing, and as it has been cloudy along the coast for some time rain may work its way over to Spokane and Whitman, yet. "The crop in the counties I have mentioned will be about 85 to 90 per cent of last year's; with a good soak ing rain it would equal last year's and a continuous hot wave would put it out of business. I don't fear the latter calamity, however, for from my obser vation these hot waves are more pre valent in June than in other months." "Well, there is one thing that can be said of Crawford. Although he went fishing himself on the Sabbath he didn't let his little son fish." "I am glad to hear that. Was the boy at Sunday school?" "No. baiting the hooks." "Why did she marry him?'* "I give it up. He wasn't bad enough to need reforming or good enough to make a desirable husband." THE EVENING STATESMAN, FRIDAY, JULY 3, 1903.

Wash. —The war which has been going on for some time be tween the several big brewing com panies of the state for the control of the Bellingham Bay trade culminated in the Bellingham Bay Brewing com pany applying to the superior court and receiving an injunction against the city council restraining that body from issuing a license which they had granted to John Birk for the conduct of the Prosper saloon on Dock street. A hard fight was made against the council's granting the license and it was only done by that body after they had acquired an indemnifying bond of $5000 from the proprietor to protect the city, as the proprietor of the build ing in which the saloon is located joined in the objection to the license being issued. As the council had al ready ordered the license issued the proprietor of the saloon will continue to do bush. -s. as he is in no wise re strained by terms of the injunc tion.

Riiiearson. who has been searched for by .he police for a week reckoned thai kind friends would protect him from prosecution. That he was cor rect in his surmise is evidenced by the fact that the matter has been squared up. .Mr. Smith has his money 517.5-and the warrant which was isuued for hi's arrest has been thrown in the waste basket. It was learned today that Rinenrson never left the city after passing the bogus paper, but has been hid by friends un.il the matter could be squared up. In excuse for his action in uttering the paper that might have meant a term on the hill, it is siated that Rinearson has been unfoiv.mate in business ventures the past three years. During that time he has lost $8 >00 i: 1 unfortunate investments.
