THINNING FRUIT.

Hon. Marshall z. Wilder, in his address
before the American Pathological Conven.
ton at Richmond, Va, stated
This Is lesson which we have learned,
and the necessity of which we have often
endeavored 70 impress upon cultiyators,
which every successive season teaches with
strong emphasis. 1t is absolutely necessa-
~ for all who send fruit to market to send
large fruit, and the markets are constant.
" and progressively requiring large and
fine fruit. Even the Seckel pear. which
once commanded in Boston market the
highest price, will not now, unless of ex.
ira size, sell for any more, if as much, as
common varieties Of largest size. A me-
dunn sized fruit, or even one of smaller
size, may be more economical for use,
but until some decided change in the pref
erences of the majority of purchasers
shall take place. large fruit will sell better
than small.
To produce this, the fruit must not only
have good cultivation. but must be thin
ned, and we agree with Mr.. Meehan that
'one-half the trees which bear fruit every
wear would be benefited by having one
half of the fruit taken off as soon as ii is
well set, and that the overbearing of tree
will in few years destroy it, We may
lay it down as certain rule, that excess
i've production is always at the expense of
both quality and quantity If not in the
same season then in succeeding ones, for
its supply of light and food, it would be
indeed an anomaly in nature if this should
not result in permanent injury to the trees
as we'll as to the annual crop"

THE IDEAL OF CHRIsTs PERsoN.-Ihe
Christ of painters is blue-eyed and golden
haired. and such one never existed save IN
their lamentations. 4 blonde in the race OF
Syrian Jews is unknown. he was q b'1n'
Since we have no word in our language
which describes a man with dark bair and
ewes and olive complexion of that race.
There are pious people who have recourse to
a miracle to make him blonde, with whom
il is useless toargue. Generally the stoutest
defenders of his divinity believe that in
taking on himself mans nature he SUD-
iectcd himself to the laws which govern It,
and that he thus inherited the charac-
terstics of the race from when ne
sprung. Leonardo, Guido, Raphael, ana
other masters, created their CHRIST, re-
gardess of historical requirements, anu
invested him with an ideal charac-
ter which he never possessed, according
TO their idea Of the beautiful In art. lhis
model, once imposed, has since been perpe--
trated BY all painters, because they tnlnk piue
ewes more spiritual than dark, and eolden
hair more god-like than black. They had an
idea, too. that the Jewish type OF face was
ignoble, which may have had some tounda-
ton from the degradation to which the race
was forced for so many centuries by perSe-
cutting Christians, and they thus had their
preiudices against investing the Saviour with
the traits of people whom they dsplsed.
But the Jew of Syria, in the day of Jesus,
was, before his persecution and consequent
debasement, perhaps the equal of the man OF
anv otherrace in point of natural advantages.
There are Syrian Jews now, in Isolated haDl-
tations in Palestine, who are remarkable ior
their handsome traits.-Albert Rhodes, IN

Things in Bos.On--Action Of the Relief
Committee.

BosroS, November 19.-The Citizens Re-
lief Committee have made report, in which
they say: ... -..l.-... q.
"The number ofapplicants for aid has heen
about 1000, of which, we think, three
fourths are heads of families. In our judg-
ment, 5000 persons are represented in these
applications. To those who have resided in
the burned district, and who lost their
houses, the committed are furnishing such as
have taken other quarters with furniture, bed.
To such heads Of families as were employed
in the district, and who resided elsewhere,
groceries and fuel are given, and in some
cases money to pay rent.
There are many applications from I'M
married men and women who lost their enl-
ployment Us well as tools by the fire, and
were left without any means Of support.
The committee have referred all such for
employment to the committee appointed for
this purpose, and in some cases, where the
necessity appears to be urgent, hive given
money sufficient to pay weeks board, and
have given orders for tools.
"The committee find the number of me-
chanics and laboring classes who suffered by
the late fire to be much larger than they ex-
pected, and at present there is IN increase
rather than any falling of in the number Of
applications.
ave estimate. when the cases already in
hand shall have been investigated and passed
upon, the SUM Of $4,000 will haye'been en-
pended. How much longer these applica-
tons will continue remains to be seen. but it
is evident the losses have been much under
estimated in the department of labor. and it
seems certain that very large calls will con.
tinuc to be made for assistance, and means
larger than now appear available will be re-
Quired to enable the committee to continue
the work us it is now being DONE"

from the New York Times.

Yesterday afternoon Mrs BiSchofsberger
and her son-in-law, Simon Strentz, were ar
rested in Newark, charged with unlaWtuly
depriving NIr. BischohSberger Of his liberty
and attempting to defraud him OF his pro-
perty. The story is told by one OF Mr.. Bisch.
oftsberger's friends as followsi -. .
Seven months ago Mrs. Bischoffsberget,
having desire to get her husband out of
the house, for the purpose of securing con-
| troll of his property, to which scheme, it is
alleged, she was urged by Strentz, induced
Il physician to give certificate that her hus-
band was insane. To this certificate she
procured, also. the signature of a drug clerk
| who pretended to hive medical diploma.
Upon this document Mr.. BischoffSberger
was hurried away to the asylum at Trenton
to which he was admitted by the superin'
tendent without any careful examination
The wife paid six months board in advance

berger had paid board having expired, the
superintendent of the asylum suddenly dis
covered that Bischofsberger was not insane
and wrote to Mrs. Biscbotfsberger Informing

and take her husbandaway. Mrs. Bischoffs
berger, instead Of doing this, sent pay fol

longer. At this point came the interference
of Mr.. Bischofsberger's friends, and al
though the superintendent of the Trenton
asylum had accepted the money sent him he
was compelled to give up his patient. The
latter wus taken to Newark, where he re-
