PROBABILITIES OF THE CROPS.

Correspondence of The Evening Star
FALLS CHURCH, Va, May 4, 1893
One cannot conceive what is signified this
season by the curt description, ''fne fruit pros
pect," without he has seen it with an expert
enced eye. First we had the cherry and pear
and plum trees in blssom. then where the ''yel-
lows has left them untouched the peach
trees, lastly the apple trees. all of them have
had most bountiful and beautiful bloom
The apple trees are just beginning to drop their
petals. ANY one who has, in a significant sense.
love Of the beautiful must occasionally stop
to admire and be delighted to the fullest by the
view of the apple orchards. 1 can't say if
ever l have seen any apple trees blossoming
that were more perfect. II the promise of all
these fruits materialize may expect to see
the grower in the autumn looking .or salts

But there are some considerations that will
be OF absorbing interest to the growers. When
the fruit crop has been failure for q season or
two the insect enemies appear in greatly di-
minished numbers. These the curculio and
cooling moth. The former is the hurtfui in
sect to the plums, apricots and peaches, the
latter to the pears and apples. Spraying is
only partial success. Gathering up the small
fruit as ii falls and destroying it is the best
thing to run out the insects.

be as large as shucked black walnut or a little
larger to pick OF the affected and Informed
fruit and feed to hogs, otherwise there will be a
crop Of small fruit, which will bring small
prices. Ii the course above suggested was fol-

Knew He Was a Fool.

'Tma - fool and know it, was the re-
mark Of Nathan Davenport, an old soldier who
draws a pension of s24 month when he APP
peared at police headquarters yesterday to re-
port the loss of his overcoat, 1924 in cash and
bank books showing deposits to the amount of
about $1,000 Incidentally the victim of alco-
holism made a remark about suicide, but no at
tention paid to it. The old man ter
ribly distressed over his loss as he was under
the impression that every cent he owned had
been taken from him. His wife. he said. was
in hospital in New York and he had concluded
to bring her here. ALI his complaint was di-
rected toward one-eyed man
whom he said he met at n religious
meeting. The officers thought that
the prisoners overcoat and MONEY had been
taken by the Salvation man for safe keeping
and did not think he had been robbed. On ac-
count of his nervous and apparently half-crazed
condition he was taken to the first precinct
station and locked up for his own protection
When the patrol driver went through the cell
room between and O'Clock he was surpri, ed
TO find the odd man hanging from the cross bar
of the cell door. He had used his suspender,
to serve a moose. but when found he had not
been hanging long enough to injure himself
] he patrol driver cut the man down and he was
relieved of his sUspenders. Later he was sent
to the hospital for treatment.

Nobody Is Really Sound in Body-Freaks
in Skeletons.

The autopsy performed the other day on the
body of the murderer Schneider disclosed the
fact that he was very much diseased man.
Judging from the statement of the physicians
1t seemed as though nearly every vital organ,
from the brain to the spleen. had something
the matter with it. Reports of post-mortem
examinations always seem to disclose remark
able number of such abnormalities even in the
apparently healthy person who has been sud
denly killed by an accident.
1.-The fact is. that hardly any human being.
even in the flush of youth and health. is wholly
sound, said DR.. d. S. Lamb of the Army Med
lcal Museum to a STAR reporter. Even the
sturd1est children are not SO. The reason of it
is that all human beings are constantly liable to
injuries which are apt to be permanent Our
lungs are affected by the dust we breathe. The
exposures to colds which we must encounter

In the past Doubtless most of them never
knew that they had suffered from the COM
plant.
beginning life as a soualling infant. one
goes through the world meeting injury after
injury through exposure, accident and disease.
These injur leave their traces on various or
gans of the body. When an autopsy is per-
physician. However. even the vital organs
may work very well, notwithstanding the ex-
istence of acquired abnormaties. Though you
yourself have every appearance of being sound
and healthy. you are not completely so in real
ity. Do you not wear eyeglasses because the
shape of your eyes is not normal? And are
there not gold filings in your teeth where they
have decayed?
Gas have said. none of us are wholly sound
An autopsy would not give either you or me a
clean bill of health. As we advance in life the
complete integrity of our physical structure is
more and more impaired. BY the time we
reach old age it has got to be shaky. What.
then. keeps us from dying? 1t is a power of
resistance inherent in the individual. Nobody
knows where that power lies, but it exists.
People of temperate and careful habits live
longer than others, because they avoid injuries
and exposures.
I'VE often find abnormalities in the skeletons
of human beings. Occasionally man or
woman will have twenty-six ribs-thirteen OH

Is regarded rs a reversion to primitive type
Of structure, inasmuch as many monkeys have
thirteen ribs on each side. The anthropoid
apes have only twenty-four ribs or all man.
mails the bat has the least number of ribs Man
at his full development has the smallest number
of bones among all mammals, and rodents pos
sess the greatest number.
"Aii mammals have seven bones in the neck
with two exceptions. The sloth has nine and
the sea COW eight. No matter how long the
neck is, it always has seven vertebr@. The
giraffe has only as many bones in its neck as a
man has; the difference is that they are
longer"

\ Domestic Disagreement According to the
Gosnel of Expression.
The practice of Delsartism does not seem to
prevent domestic infelicity. for two of the
most noted apostles of this French gospel of
expression have been divorced from each other
Mrs. Edmund Russell has just secured de-
cree of separation from her husband in
Sioux Falls on the ground of desertion She
swore that Edmund-the gracious, graceful
Edmund. who posed in several public and semi
public places III this city, SAYS the BROOKLYN
EdJie. not many months ago-deSerted her in
London in September. 1890. without cause or
her consent. and that although they had occu-
pied the same house since then their separation
had been complete. 1t would be interesting to
know how these two people acted at the crisis
in 1890. when the disagreement came. Did Ed
mund take two steps backward and. with a
downward gesture TO the rear exclaim: Hen
rietta Mrs. Edmunds name is Henrietta). you
disgust me?" Or, did he throw his hand into
the mir and shout. "Begone?" Or. WAS it all
done in pantomime? We told that an ex-
pert reader of gesture and pose can interpret
the thoughts and moods of another. 1t NAV be
that the whole disagreement was one of poses,
and that. if truth we're told. the cause Of the
separation lies in incompatibilty Of attitude
rather than of temper. When these peculiar
peolj ewere inBrooklyn they talked about 'sweat'
and gracious and "lovely' ami "bcautiful''
conduct as if they knew all about it from
practical experience. The woman dressed like
a siattern in the street and was clad like an
angel in the parlor. The man talked about his
clothes and such like things when he was rot
explaining how to decorate the walls of bou-
doir. Most men leave the discussion of clothes
to their tailors, who estimable people and
strive to earn the money to pay their bills by
some dgnitied work. Russell seemed to prefer
to be a Wallets guide or a fop's model He
found it profitable for a time. There seems to
have been some serious posing in the life of the
pair, if the wife S statement is true.
