AMERICAN APPLES ABROAD.

It is a fact probably not generally
known that apples are rapidly becoming
one of the most important American AZ
ticles of export. The following interest
ing facts concerning this branch OF
trade are culled from a New York ex-
change:
ain the past three weeks nearly $1,000
barrels of apples, principally Greetings,
Newton pipins and BaldWins, have been
shipped TO Europe from this city alone,
and not a steamer sails from this port TO
cross the Atlantic that does not carry ap-
Piles. They are even shipped by sailing
vessels from Boston. Upwards of II, 600
barrels per day is New York's contribu-
ton of apples to the old world This
quantity is equivalent 70 40 car loads
per day. For many years certain yarie-
ties of American apples have been held
in high esteem in England, and the
most popular of all Of them Is the New
ton pipin. Only few years ago they
| were sold there for upward Of $28 per
barrel. A few years ago several of the
| fruit dealers in West Washington mar
ket began shipping the full line Of A
merican winter apples with fair success,
| since which time the trade has increased
| until il reached the astonishing proper
tions enumerated above. Newton pi-
pins were selling at last quotations in
London at 9s to lbs per barrel. while
Baldwins were doing nearly as well.
Greetings, Perieoles, Spies and Kings
sell for from 9s 70 lis per barrel. Some
of the shippers will lose on their ven
tuFe, while none can hope for much pro-
| ut. At the lowest price 1t gives shippers
so cents per barrel, and at the highest
quotations it leaves them $1.25 per bar

'THE BOY MILLIONAIRE"
Only Twenty Years OF Age and Q Rail

Only Twenty Years OF Age and q Rail-
road President
When the excitement over the great
oil strikes Ia Clarion county a few years
ago was at its height, . railroad was
built from the village of Emlenton, on
the line of the Allegheny valley railroad.
to Clarion, the county seat. FOxburgh
was q place that had been called into ex-
istence four miles further down the Al
leghany river by the oil discoveries.
The land on which it was built and for
miles above it belonged to the estate of
a deceased iron manufacturer of Phila-
delphia, named Fox. The great inter-
ests of this estate were managed by Will
liam L. Fox, son of the deceased manu-
facturer. He was only 20 years Of age
That FOxburg had been ignored by the
proprietors of the Emlenton road anger
ed the young millionaire. He at once
began the construction of a road from
his town to Clarion. The roads were
both of the three-foOt gauge. FOx's
railroad was compelled to climb q hill
about 500 feet high TO get start out OF
Foxburg This was done by a series of
zigZags that carried the road over dis
lance of several miles, yet il was only q
mile or two from Foxburg when The
summit was reached Both roads were
finished. w. A. Fox was made presi-
dent of the Foxburg road. The cOmpe-
tition between them was so sharp that
neither road made money. Finally the
stockholders of the Emlenton road sue
cumbed to the wealthy "boy president"
he secured stock enough in the rival
road to control il, and both roads passed
under his management. He agreed to
keep the Emlenton branch open and run
special trains upon ii between Emlenton
and Jefferson Station, where il joined the
other road for Clarion.
Last winter President Fox died sud-
denly. A favorite conductor of his had
been shot and killed by passenger
whom he had put off of train because
he refused TO pay fare. Mr.. Fox took q
leading part in prosecuting the assassin.
1t was in obtaining the pistol that the
murder was committed with, and in run
ming quarter of mile to get on q train
for Clarion, which was waiting for him,
that president Fox so exhausted himself
that he died in his seat in the car before
reaching st. Petersburg.

RATHER FAST

The Commonwealth of Sunday had
''scare crow" for the liquor dealers, an
stating that the prohlbitory amendment
passed last Tuesday and went into effect
at six O'Clock that day. This 10 the
view" il says, taken by the best law
yers." We will venture the assertion
that neither the Commonwealth nor its
best lawyers even know yet whether the
prohibition amendment has majority
of the votes of the state or not. If il
has a majority, we suppose it will take
some official count to determine that
fact, and some official declaration will
probably be necessary before the amend
ment is of full force. We are no lawyer
but il has been the common belief in
this part OF the country that some legis
lation would be necessary under THU
new part OF the constitution to put it,
provisions in force, and to fix som'
penalties for its violation. Whethe
il is correct or not, it is true
nevertheless, that If a suit were broagh
now under the amendment 1t would de
volve on the prosecution to show tina
the amendment had been adopted, whIcl
IL certainty could not do.
We have no doubt at all but that tn
amendment has been carried, and Il
view Of this we believe il will b

The supreme Court on County Printing

The Supreme Court on County Printing.
Topeka Daily Commonwealth, Nov. Q.
The supreme court, at its session yes
terday, traversed the whole field of pub
lie county printing, and as the subject is
one of great interest To county officers,
and publishers Of newspapers, we have
taken the trouble to examine the opin-
ions Just flied and herewith produce the
conclusions of that tribunal of its inter-
probation and construction OF the statutes
relating TO the publication of legal ad-
vertisements.
In the case of Wren & Clawson VS..
the board OF county commissioners of
Nemaha county. 10 recover statutory
fees for the publication OF delinquent
tax list, the court decides that the boards
Of county commissioners of the several
counties have the legal right to desig-
nate the paper in which the delinquent
tax lists and tresurers' notices shall
appear. In that case, the commission
ers Of Hemaha county designated the
Seneca Weekly Courier and the Nemaha
County Republican Is official county
papers; each paper agreeing TO receive
one-half Of the legal fees. The treasurer
designated thereafter, in addition, the
Seneca Tribune. The court says the des-
ignation of the Tribune by the treasurer
was without authority of law, and
that the publishers cannot recover Of the
county any compensation for the adver-
tisements furnished by that officer Il is
further decided that the statute contem-
plates the designation of only one official
paper in q county; that if the commits
sioners designate two or more, thetreasur-
er can select either as the official paper If
none are designated, tbs treasurer can
then designate a paper for his Official
advertisements.

FREAK OF A MAD MAN.


A press letter from Berlin, Germany,
of October %, gives the following par
ticulars of an encounter with lunatic
in that city:
One day last week as the insane pa
tients of the great charity hospital at
Berlin were taking their accustomed ex-
ercise in the gardens of that establish
ment, under the supervision of several
attendants, one of them, a luAatic cab driv-
er of herculean strength, contrived to
slip away from his companion and to
Chamber up the trunk of huge elm
tree. Having reached one of the top
most limbs and armed himself with a
stout branch, which he snapped asunder
as easily as though it had been mere
twig, he announced, in stentorian &C.
cents. his intention of staying there
forever" In vain did the perplexed
wardens alternately coax and threaten
him he laughed at their Establishments
and defied their menaces. No one dared
to attempt his capture by force, so,
after IA couple of hours had elapsed, the
medical authorities. having obtained per-
mission from the district lieutenant of
police, summoned to their assistance Il
detachment of the fire brigade and an
engine, which forthwith commenced to
play upon the deranged gymnast. Hav-
ing drenched him for a ten minutes
spell, the fireman summoned him TO a
parley, but could get nothing out of
HIM save a fantastic and highflown
speech of thanks for their refreshing
attentions" Another and still more
protrRcted deluge proving equally inef-
fectual in inducing him TO descend,
the wardens and policemen resorted To
friendly negotiations, and their pcrsua
sions at length moved the triumphant
mailman to declare that If they would
pay homage to his gymnastic skill and
heroic endurances by three rounds of en-
thusiastic applause. he would come
down. His terms were promptly accept
ed, and he descended to terra firma amid
the vehement plaudits of policemen,
warden and firemen, thus honorably
captivating after a siege of five hours
and half of duration.

STARTLING FIGURES.

James Redfield has been making u
study of homicide in this country and
published the results of his investiga-
lions recently. The most startling
revelation of the volume is the preva.
lence of homicide in the southern states.
Texas takes the lead in this matter.
There have been 1000 murders commit
ted there in Is years. The record is that
in Texas alone IN 1878 there were more
homicides than in Maine, New Hamp.

kept up in the south, is declared To be
larger than in any quarter of the globe
Mr.. Redfield does not claim that these
homicides have generally any direct
connection with politics, but are mainly
due to the defective education and civil
cation, to which the almost universal and

tract price controls; that the publisher
caniot repudiate the contract or recover

In the case of Genther VS.. Lewis, it is
held that q county cannot collect a larger
sum for advertising q tract of land in

Usher In that case, the commissioners
contracted for the publication OF the de-
Iinquent tax list at eight cents for each
tract of land. The statutory fee is TWEEN
ty-five cents Under the decision only
eight cents could be charged TO the land
OF the owner for the costs of advertising,

NEW YORK.

The air has been filed with silly ru-
mors, during the past few days, that
New York was doubtful, and
that 1t had given a majority Of five
thousand for Hancock. There were
several Democrats foolish enough to be
lieve these absurd stories. The only
question about New York is the size of
the majority it has given for Garfield.
The World, DemOcratic,) puts it at 49,.
600; the Sun, (DemocraticD at 10000
the Herald, independently at 10000; the
Tribune (Republican,) at % 900; and the
Times, (Republican,) at $1,000. It is
certainly as much as $4,000. and may
reach $4,000. Probably 10000 will bt
about the correct figures.

WESTERN GROWTH.

A writer in Bradstreet's draws very
strides which have been made by the
western states upon the impulse of rail
way development. He shows that these
ten States, operating more than forty
thousand miles of railroad, and upon
which they last year cleared net profits
of nearly ninety-three millions of dol
lars, have in few years sprung into
their present splendid condition of pros
perity and power solely through the
agency of their abundant and perfectly
appointed system of transportation. Be
fore they inaugurated in earnest the
building up of that system their fortunes
were stagnant Their industries Ian
guished for want of market, immigration
had ceased and progress was unknown.
The people merely existed. Their crops
rotted in the fields or were so heavily
taxed en- route to the market as to repre-
sent no profit to the producer
not simply trunk lines, but
the network Of feeders and
tributaries with which OHIO
Idianna and Illinois are literally
envelOped-with that era came the ire
mendous awakening and that process of
growth and expansion and development
which stands to-day without parallel IN
history. the wonder of the civilized
world. Immigration poured in by q
thousand ceaseless streams, the forests
and the prairies changed as if my magic
into smiling fields; factories, workshops
towns and cities started up in the night
as it were. In the brief space OF thirty
years the assessed values of these ter
states have advanced from $500, 0OO, OO(
to $500 600, 000-more than 500 pei
