Arrivals of new aro now due, as picking and curing have been in full blast for nearly a fortnight in some of the early sections and are now in pro' gress in most, if not all, the yards in tho State. There should be active trading in the next 30 or 00 days, aud certainly will be if wholesale offerings are all that is necessary to bring about this result, it remains to be seen, however, if the foreign demand will coma up to expectations and if buyers and growers will be generally able to come to terms. The impression prevails that there will be a very lair demand within range of the quotations herewith appended. Values for the time being are, of course, largely nominal. Good to choice, 1898 crop 12 The following review of the hop market comes thru by mail of recent date from New York: "The local market continues quiet and without new features of interest.

Remaining stocks of 1898 hops are light both here and in the country, and mostly consisting of lower grades, and that fact causes too, quotations to appear extreme, tho there is nothing to warrant actual change. We hear of a lot sold in the interior of this State at and some at 11c. Picking in thiB State is now only about three weeks distance, and advices from the yards are being watched with interest. Lice are reported in some sections, hut not sufficient to cause special uneasiness unless weather should prove favorable to rapid increase. It is now regarded pretty certain that the crop will be lighter than last year.

From the Pacific coast lice are reported in Washington and that State has reduced estimates of growing crop and reports now predict a lighter quantity than thot two weeks ago.

Tarn has not been dead, only sleeping, and when aroused from his slumbers by the stirring words of "The Traveler," "Paul Pry" aud the dotted author, he feels it his duty to say something. Things go on at the High smoothly; club and class spirit running. The Comitia and thu Kodina heing two separate clubs would most naturally evince some here of late there seems to be a great affinity growing up between them. Warm words of friendship have been expressed by the members of each club for those of the othor and there promises to be many pleasant meetings in the near future. Those who are poetically inclined wish for the exchange of thot in verse, but those who have good appetites turn their Mints to a banquet.

The nonentity of the Recreation club has made those who were used last year to enjoy its meeting have a wish that the Patroness would again take the interest and time to start the club anew. Last Saturday night a number of the young people, thru their own efforts gave a dance which lasted until nearly midnight.

The Senior class, if remembered, was once a Sophomore class and then it waB that they presumed their strength too much in endeavoring 10 defeat the rest of the school in foot ball, and now two years later it seems that this same class still has its overestimated idea of itself. But then you know every story has two sides, aud "every dog has his day." Prof.

Much soaring was done on both sides but the decisision was iiuaily reached tnat the negative, represented by Anderson Thomas and Fred Holman had triumphed over the affirmatives, Russel Lowe and Eldon Rader. The club on dispersing took themselves to the scecial and I guess they danced, but of course it could not be said for sure. The club intends to fix up a club room which shall be appropriate for the society and piety of the club, sometime in the near future.
