Apples as Food.

From the earliest ages apples
have been in use for the table rs a
dessert. The historian, Pliny tells
US that the Romans cultivated TWEEN
ty.two varieties OF the apple. In
these latter days we probably po-
sess over 1000. As an article OF
food they rank with the potato, and
on account of the variety OF ways
in which they m y be served, they
are far preferable to the taste OF
many persons and, il families
would only substitute ripe, lucions
apples for pies, cakes, candies and
preserved fruit, there would DO
much less sickness among the chill.
dren, and the saving of this one
item alono would purchase many
barrels Of apples.
They have one excellent effect
upon tho whole physical system,
feeding the brain ~ well US adding
to the flesh. aud keeping the blood
pure also preventing constipation,
and correcting Il tendency to aeidi-
~, which produces rheumatism and
neuralgia. They will cool off the
teverish condition Of the system /;
in fact, they are far better for these
purposes than the many nostrums
which are highly praised in the al.
vertisenents, and are 10 constantly
pnrehed by sufferers. A ripe raw
apple is digested in an hour and a
halt, while boiled potato takes
twice the time.
While apples can be purchased at
cheap rates every family should
keep a dish of them in the dining
room, where the children can have
access to them and eat all they
please. They will rarely receive
any injury from them il they arc
thoroughly masticatrd. Baked APP

sour apples are used for pies and
buildings in hundreds of famle:

are also good food for old people

them. In my own family they arc

CENTRAL PACIFIC STOCK.

- Banker Seeks to Recover the Difference
Between the Highest Price and His Own.
NEW YORK, May LITTLE suit of David Stew
art, banker, against Coils p. Huntington and
Others was brought to trial to-day in the Supreme
Court. When the Central Pacific railroad Of
California was first started. it is alleged that
Huntington induced the plaintiff to purchase
200 shares of the stock Of the company April
81, 1870. These shares were sold to Hunting
ton for their par value, with interest at the rate
OF 7 per cent. from 1867. Stewart AYERS that
Huntington, for himself and three other capital
lists in California, agreed that II he or they should
pay any more for other stock than they had
paid him for his, then they would make
MP the difference with him. Stewart alleges that
Huntington and others did pay even as high as
$500 a share for other stock, and he claims that
he is entitled 10 the difference between that
price and $3.50 per share paid for his stock.
The amount Stewart seeks to recover is $40, 900.
with interest from April 81, 1870. Huntington
SAYS he acted alone with Stewart on his own be-
half and responsibility, and that afterward,
when Stewart said some other person had been
paid a large sum for their stock, he denied this,
and said II he did pay any more 20 other per-
sons he would also nay the increased price to
Stewart. He declares that no contract or agree
ment was entered into, and ho paid no person
more than S139 per share.

THE NEW TRUNK LINE.

Rapid Progress of Construction on the New
York, West Shore & Buffalo.
President WinslOw and other officials of hte
New York, West Shore & Buffalo road have Just
made an inspection trip over q portion of the
line. The gentlemen we're well pleased with the
condition of the work. The bad weather has de-
lsyed the ballasting of the tracks, but there are
very large forces engaged in this work, ana it
will soon be finished. General Winslow states that
there are thirty construction trains on the track,
hauling ballast ana finishing the road between
Syracuse and New York. IL is expected that
the line will be open for regular business TO AL
bany and Syracuse by the middle of June. The
bridge over ROndout creek is now nearly com.
pleted. 1t is over 1900 feet long and about $50
feet from the water, and IL is one of the most
imposing ana substantial struetures on the line,
The cost of material and erection will be over
100000. In regard TO the complexion of this
road and she opening of the line for business, for
which so many dates have been given from time
to time, Mr.. Monet, the general passenger
agent, now states that every effort VIII be made
to open the line from New York TO Syracuse by
June 10 next; and he says it may he stated con
ndently that the road will be in full operation by
July l between these points.

Some Fifteen Engineers ON the Bee Line
System Retire.
On inquiry, 1t is learned that on the Bee Line
system, within the last twenty days, some
fifteen of the oldest and best engineers, each

have been discharged. This led to further in
iquiry as to the cause, and from one OF the engin-
GERS still on the road it is learned that the
pay of engineers on the Bee Liue system is
graded, basing the pay on the qualifications of
the engineer. Engineers of the first class get
80 cents more per day than those in the second
class, ana 81 60 more than those in the third
class, these grades only applying to freight
,engineers--and, to make the story short, business
has been Il little slow over the road of late. and
1t was necessary to cut down the quota of en-
gineers on each division, and Master
Mechanic TurFeff, 10 Ia stated, said TO these old
faithful and tried engineers, some OF them of 25
stay on the road, but hereafter, If you DO, your
pay will be the same as that of the secOnd-elass

%sayi'nr, sir" and, of course, thereby are virtually
discharged, and the engineers of the second
class take the discharged engineers places, but
do not get the same pay as did the first-class

the end is yet to be seen, as already they have

to the lease is removed. The board OF directors
as now standing is: Franklin b. Gowen, L. G.
Knight, Sidney Shepard, Robert Garrett, Samuel
Stern. Theodore Randolph, John Kean, Henry
g. Little, J. Kennedy. The directory of the Jer-
sey Central is completely changed. One of the
very first Innovations will be an attempt TO
change the present agreement between the Long
Branch road and the Pennsylvania. The ar
rangement was made by Judge Lathrop Just be-
lore he died. IL has not been satisfactory
TO the Now Jersey Central people, ana G0wen, 1t
is said, has pledged himself TO look into the mat
ter, and II the contract can be broken, 1t Will be.
The Pennsylvania company generally makes bar
gains In such n way that they can't be broken
unless by the Pennsylvania railroad. AT all
events, the Long Branch road promises to omen

shortly will be instituted bet ween the new COM
