NOTES FROM NILES

What Is Being Done intheCounty of Alameda.

Co-operative Fruit-Drying— Work inthe Beet Sugar Factories— The

Artesian Wells for Oakland.

Niles. Sen. 15. —The fruit-dryin:yards are being cleared. The last prunesand peaches are being handled this week,and tbe first year's work in the dryer isabout at an end. The season has onlybeen two mouths, but an immense amountof fruit

—considering it is the initial year

has been handled. Five hundred tons ofapricots, 100 tons of peaches and 150 ton*of prune's is about the bulk of the greenfruitdried. Several tons of pears and sil-ver prunes buve also been handled. Thenumber of tons of dri^d fruiton band ofail varieties trust be about 200 tons. 'I»isnow being sorted, regrad«*d, and willsoonbe in a condition to sell. What the ex-pense bss been fa individuals cannot yetbe determined, as i: is » co-operative con-cern. Tbe expense falls proportionatelyupon each member. Hence tbe workmust be complete before tbat can be de*termined.

From various reasons fresh fruit com-manded but medium pri'-'s this year, soowners oi dried fruit hardly look forwardto fancy prices, but expect 10 do better byhandling the fruitin Urate quantities thanby selling Itout in small quantities, as in-dividual dryers hate to. Th» benefit totie worker* in town can hardly be over-,estimated. No Chinese wnre employed.and the money went into the pockets ofthose who spend their money in the townwhere ihey live. The payroll reached a*higtias .800 some weeks. Koug lyspeak-ing, ihe diver probably bandied half ot

the fruitgrown in the immediate neigh-borhood of ilea, tin* does not i.eludealmonds, which ere grown iv large quan-tities her:-.

The capaci y of the sugar lactory at Al-varaao has been doubled this year, andwork be.an last Monday. An 'addition,50_t"0 feet, has been built 10 handle the in-creased number of tods fir which havebeen contra: ted. Two hundred inns aday was ibe run last season; 4DO will berun this year. Anew lti_e_ lv and motesheds have been built Some 880 cars, oro_oo tons of beet*, wi!! oe sent from Al-vi»o, A.di-w- and Santa Clara this season,and no less t.ian l_iO cars, or about 15,000tons, from lfasauiou. itis bardiy pos-sible to tsl yet what the local y.eld willbe, but the beets are a hue size this seasonan. willdoult be of as good quality asusual. Ibe hauling of the Pieasaoiiubeets from Dt-coiu lr tbe mill is no smallitem ot expense. D. L.. Stone of SauLeaudro bas the contract. The amount ofcoal burned m the mill i* also quito anitem. Tbree thousand ions were receivedlast week from British Columbia.

An enterprise which is making thing*livelyin that tame section is 'he tiDing ofthe artesian well water to Oakland. Theseveral well- winch wer« tae exclusiveproperty of Mr. Granger a.id son havebeen bought by Oakland capitalists andthe water is being carried to Oakland,

liumen»e concrete reservoirs sro beingbuilt, keeping numbers of teams busyhauling gravel. Thi* l-in addition to tiemen actually engaged io tbe work. Hun-dreds oi men are therefore employed atgooa wages and at work which willkeepthem busy for some lime at the sugar millana ihe water works, so n_* ate verylively in the ueuhburuood of Aivarado.

Grapes are ripening and in Mission banJose aud Waim Springs tha wineries willbe inful working order within anothertwo weeks, so in various pans of ourcounty targe interests are being worked,money ts free and people generally arelooking forward to an easier winter thanla-<! one.

Pleasant Occasion at the Pacific He-brew Orphan Asylum— A Musical

Entertainment.

The little people and their bigger friendsat the Pacific Hebrew Orphans' Asylum onDevisadero street had a grand jollificationyesterday. Itwas the occasion of the dis-tribution of tbe annual prizes for merit ofevery kind, and the event was celebratedin the usual way by a musical entertain-ment given by the children themselves.

'

The invited guests were notified on theircards that the entertainment would beginat 2 o'clock sharp, and those who arrivedafter that hour found their places taken.Every seat in the ball was occupied attbat time, and standing room was taken sofar as the guardian at the door

—guardian

would al-low, and so very many were turned away.

There are l_s little ones in the asylum,their ages ranging from devotees of the"bottle" to 15 and 16 years, and the pro-gramme included ail who could walk andtalc, and was very entertaining andamusing.

President of the asylum S. W. Levy offi-ciated in the distribution of prizes, whilethe entertainment was under the directionof Superintendent Henry Mauser and Mrs.Mauser, Miss Janette Ephraim, Miss EvaKropp. Miss Adele Levy and Professor L.yon der Mehden, teachers.

The programme included several selec-tions by "our brass band." our brass bandbeing composed of course of small orphanboys, some of tbem blowing lot \u25a0> instru-ments larger than themselves, and the per-formances were all very creditably done;vocal selections by the singing class, pianoaolM and duels, Amelia Snook and HaitieFried; a barytone solo from "The Bohe-mian Girl" (William Hirseh), and a cornetsoio by Abe Reuben, the latter quite dis-tinguishing himself.

A march and song by "our kindergar-ten." which was carried through by a bandof little tots without a slip insong or step,was the most effective number of the firsthalf of the programme and showed the re-sult of careful training.

The second naif of the programme wasan operetta, "Hunt the Thimble, or NellieGrant's Surprise Party," and was renderedvery nicely. It was taken part in by RayGoltman, Marie Albert, Hulda Lacomy,

liam Hirseh, George Plato, ArtieOcpenheimer, Hannah Rosenthal, SusieRini;stein, Jennie Anshel, Etta Wein-berg, Hatiie Fried and a chorus of sur-prises.

And then a great bos full of mysteriouspackages -»• put upon the stage andPre ident Levy began the distribution ofpiiz-s.

here is one very valuable prize—

the!Bebrend" medal, wih which goes a cash jprize of 3250. This is given to the boywho stands highest in hi* studies at thepat-in school, and whose record i*good for

'department as well. The cash priza is the iinterest on foOOC) left some year- ago byHerman B«r_iidt to t*>e asylum to create jfor al! time such an annual priz-*, a sub-stantial and constant stimulus for good.

The winner of tne piize was 13-year-oldIlarry Holz-r, a manly looking lite lel-low, who bore his honors mode-tiy. Inbestowing the priz--. President Levy saidthat his teacher in the Crocker ib ie jschool bad spoken of him as unusual y i

lever. In the sixth gra<le he had stood ]99)4 Per cent the first moutti of his entry. |ahU a the end of the year h*d be<-n ad-vanced from the sixth to the eighth grade, |skipping the seventti. His marks lor de- jportment were always "excellent."

The $259 will be placed in a savings |

bank an«, w.tb the -accrued interest, willIbe turned over to him when he comes of \u25a0

age. lv bestowing it President Levy ex- ipressed the hope that some of the rich jfriends of the institution would do for the igirls what Mr. Behrendt bad done for theboys— the prize was limited to the boys.

Fannie flyman and Leo Drosdovit re-ceived the house medals lor "best deport- {ment."'

Ahe Hyiuan and Fannie Bushel received jthe $5 god risces given by Mrs. H. H.|Meyers for deportment
