The fruit is ripening slowly and the peach shipments will not be very heavy for a week at least. Prioes are away up in the Juniata valley and good fruit ia bringing aa high as 60 cents per basket on the ground. Contracts for New York and Philadelphia deliveries have been made at prices considerably lower, but still much higher than the prevailing quotations, of last year. Most of the Juniata fruit ia of good quality, but the trees are not very full. Many new orohards have been set out, and when these begin to bear the production ot the valley will be considerably increased.

Koland Proctor, of 1321 North Penn sylvania avenue, employed in the rail for the America cup approaches it becomes more and more evident that Shamrock II is going to make a very creditable effort to capture the trophy. Which fact adds to the interest nearly all English-speaking people are taking in the impending trial. Yesterday's storm was one of the most terrific of the season. It did more damage in this city and vicinity than any of its immediate predecessors, the worBt feature of its ravages being the death of the young man who was struck by lightning. There are women in this world who are ornaments of the homes in whioh they dwell and whose unconscious influence upon those who have the good fortune to associate with them is all in the direction of higher and better living.

And, notwithstanding the appearance of the "new woman" and the cynicism for which she is largely responsible, there are more of the better sort of women in the world than of any other kind. We are not surprised that many of the inhabitants of Harrisburg have ceased drinking water and taken to coffee, milk, or more potential beverages. The water supply of that city, judging from the sample furnished! visitors during the present week, is decidedly "off color," and its flavor is by no means that of Araby the Blest. The situation may be an abnormal one if it isn't the temperance people of the state capital labor under extraordinary disadvantages. They have been having quite an interesting Bible conference out-at a Wisconsin summer religious resort, we observe, whereat ministers representing several denominations definitely decided that there is a hell and that they will preach future punishment "more vigorously than ever before." If they believe in the doctrine they certainly ought to preach it with all their might, for it is a doctrine of immense importance to the race, though it seems to have been shelved of late years in most pulpitB.

The reportB of the experts which we print in another part of this number show that the strike precipitated by the Amalgamated association is not seriously considered by the business world. There is no apprehension and scarcely any decrease in the volume of trade. It is understood that there is always more or leas lethargy in the iron and steel trades daring the heated term and it seems to be the general expectation of business people that the strike and the hot weather will go out together and that business will be resumed in earnest, no great harm having been done to anybody or any interest. There is, at any rate, no apprehension that the strike will reach dangerous proportions. The Tribune has already printed a letter, the first of a series from the pen of Dr.

Henry Tuckley, its special correspondent, concerning the approaching B6Bsion of the Methodist Eonmenical conference, which ia about to be held in London. The majority of the American delegates are already on the ground. Some curious gossip has reached this country concerning the disposition of the southern delegates to complain about the conduct of the hotel proprietors in ignoring the color line, deciding that oolored men shall have precisely the same privileges aa are acoorded to white guests. That seems fair, provided the black men are willing and able to pay the prioe, and we do not understand why the southern Christians, who surely believe their Bible when it declares that God made of one blood a'l the nations of the earth, should complain. Christianity of the right sort knows no color line.

The situation in New York appears to be propitious for the punishment of a few of the rascals who have been managing the affairs of that city, and the dethronement of Boss Croker. It haB always been rather surprising to us that the immediate followers of Mr. Croker in New York should submit with patience to the prolonged residence in England of their chief.

It baa always been understood that England and Englishmen are the pet aversion of the men to whose support Mr. Croker owes his political influence. And yet that gentleman has got into the habit of spending months in England; patronizing the English race course: associating with English gentlemen and actually leasing an English oastle.
