Mr.. Jacob Deifenbach on Thursday
showed us some apples, upon the
branches, from an apple tree that pro-
duced second crop. The tree bios
somed a second time in August, and
about peck Of fruit was the result Of
the second growth. The apples were
much smaller than the first crop, and
were not quite mature. This is the
first instance we have heard of asecond
growth Of apples in any part of Penn
sylvania. Judging from this effort, we
must conclude that our season is too
short to make success of double
crop of fruit.

This fall has been one of the mild
est we have experienced for years.
The weather has been unusually fine.

a mild fall indicates severe winter.

such suggestions, but the day laborer
upon whom the severe winters fall most
heavily dread the approach of winter.

HURON AND THE FUTuRITY.
COrriean Goes to Law 10 Compel The
Acceptance Of Ills Entry.

After the issuance by the Coney Island
Jockey Club OF their programme OF the prob
able starters for to-morrow's Futurity Stakes
1t was seen by Ed Corrigan that the name of
his fleet o-year-old colt Huron was omitted
from the list OF contestants, on the claim that
Huron had been declared out by John G. Car
ter, the Secretary OF Gen. jackson, Of Belle
Meade Stud Farm, from whom the colt had
been purchased The stake IS worth many
thousands OF dollars.
Mr.. Corrigan Immediately telegraphed
Howe Hummel to institute legal proceed
ings to compel the Jockey Club 70 accept
Huron's entry. The lawyers at once applied
TO the superior Court for an order compelling
the Coney Island Jockey Club TO show cause
why they should not permit the horse to run
in the stake.
Judge David McAdam issued the order and
the matter was argued this afternoon. J.
Sargent Cram appeared for the ooney Island
Jockey Club lis argued that as the colt had
been declared out of the race he could not be
entered now.
Judge McAdam reserved his decision until
10 o'clock tomorrow morning.
Judge McAdam, before reserying his deci-
sion, made the following proposition, which
Mr.. Cram rejected:
That the horse be allowed to run in order
that the status OF the owner may be ascer-
tanned. The defendant may then determine
which horse rightfully entered the race and
won the STAKES, and pay them over according
to It's decision, being answerable TO the plain
til in a proper action for any wrong done u
his legal rights I'm the promises.

The Monmouth Summer meeting was
brought 10 close yesterday, and again tho
public contributed generously 10 the Golfers
OF the oookmakers. There was but one out OF
six Of the well-backed favorites that got homo
in the lead, that being Bermuda, who was Mt
4 ShDrt price. The way some Of the we'll
known Jockeys rode yesterday they should be
put on the retired list as having outlived
their usefulness In the pigskin. Barnes's
riding OF Picknicker, who carried barrel OF
money, was something terrible. The horse
was yanked all over the stretch, ana rnally
landed second, but no thanks to his Jockey.
In the big race Llttleneld had the mount on
that speedy st. Florian, but he took the long
way home, hugging the outer rail all the way
down the stretch, travelling at least 100
yurds farther than any horse IN tho raoe, and
OF course he lost. Again, Littlefield rode
Ru ssell, and again he took the long way and
landed nowhere. His losing these two by
going wide did not seem to beneft him in the
least, for he rode Ambulance, the favorite, In
the same manner.
Many have said that Pickering could not,
ride, but II his riding OF Patrimony cont Is any
criterion there must be more than the public
have given him credit for. He rode the race
with rare Judgment. Riot stamped himself q
game TRcehOrse In his race with bermuda, for
he hung on like grim death To the finish.
Il Is evident that Correction has lost all tina
