An Orchard IN the Forest.

Some twelve miles below this city, says a
correspondent of the Inter Ocean, writing
from Fort Madison, Iowa, are situated some
very fne-looking ''apple-trees, growing IN
the midst OF the forest. For a long time
their origin has been matter Of conjecture.
The pecularilies of these trees are, rst,
the shape of the leaf, which is much larger
than the ordinary apple leaf, being long and
quite slender. Second, they bear fruit of
the fines flavor, and parties come for miles
around to taste them, and some take leaves
and press them to keep as curiosiies.
An old settler who resided in this part Of
the country before Black Hawk and numer-
Gus other "Inlian chiefs" lett gives us the
following information He says that the
honor of planting these trees lies between
the chiefs Black Hawk and Kookuk, and
their respective tribes. ST. Louis being the
central trading point of the ''far west" at
that time, these tribes of Indians had to 90
there to procure supplies of General Clark,
who was acting as agent of Indian affairs at
that point.
He informs us that between the years T95
and 1898, Red Wing, then famous young
chief, on his return from St Louis, spent a
few days at S.. Charles, Mo-, then small
settlement, now lourishing city. While
there he was given few apples 10 eat,
which he seemed to enjoy very much, and
asked for some of the trees. One of the
settlers produced some twenty FIVE young
sprouts, and carefully covered the roots,
and gave him the necessary obstruction in
planting them. These he carried dis
lance of one hundred miles % his home
and planted around his wigwam Black
Hawk gave this as the "true origin of the
trees" They are me hundred years old,
and, from present appearances, will 1.-Two

IMMoRALITIEs IN A LUNATIC ASYLUM
Some astounding revelations were made at the
Kings County Luuatic Asylum, Flatbush, IL.

the new attendant physician, and some of the
Brooklyn charity commissioners. The n. I.
Tribune says:
Several of the nurses rendered their reslg-
nation, and then it become known that the
gravest immoraties had prevailed Ia the lnst'-
tuition, and that the male and female employees
had mingled indiscriminately 1t was also
shown that the male attendants had been per
mitted to pass In aud out Of the female wards
at will at all hours Of the day and night 1t
was also shown that the patients have been
poorly fed, and rarely had any vegetables; that
there had existed no regular system OF man
agement, but that there had been three lac
tious Jealous Of each other aud operating to the
injury of each other General decentralization
aud Acknowledgement prevailed. The attend
ants who we're summoned told a sad story OF
decentralization and lack of discipline, ref :ctlug
upop the management Of the retired physician,
DIR. Mcdonald. Immoral conduct was shown
to have prevailed to great extent, and Dr.
Corey expressed himself astouudcd at the rev.
elatlons.
