THE PROFITS OF FRUIT.
BIG YIELDS OF APRICOTS RE-
PORTED THIS YEAR.
AS High as $3.50 an Acre Made in
Growing Apricots and Prunos
This Year Around
Los Angeles.

1.-THE fruit yield of Southern California
the past season has been much above
the average" said Jerome Caldwell,
the well-known horticulturiet, yester-
day. "This is particularly true of pears
and apricots. The price of the former
has felt the effect of the heavy yield,
for in some cases they have sold as low
as So q ton, while $l2 has been the high
est pri CO paid"
He went ON to say that apricota had
held up their reputation as a good pay
ing crop and many growers would real
iEe from 500 to $3.50 an acre. In the
case with pears they must be sold at
once or they will spoil on the growers
hands. while in the case OF apricots they
can be dried by the grower right on the
ground and held until the market lie
right before selling. Dried apricots are
now taking an advance over what they
we're at the beginning OF the season.
Growers in Ventura county, where the
batter grades of apricots arc grown, are
holding for from 81 to 10 cents pound,
and the chances favor their receiving at
least the lesser amount and possibly
the higher for choice grades.
Mr.. Caldwell says that the season, on
tbaY Aqle, sh9ags JeehHuYas1 r61Fa," aafddr tie
other aeason will see much increase in
the planting of new orchards. He
knows of number OF syndicates who
contemplate planting apricot orchards,
and that frat tree seems to be very
much in the lead.
He says the soil and climate of this
part of the state are peculiarly adapted
to their growth, and are even in ad /.
vance OF the famous Santa Clara valley.
The prune crop has also been highly
profitable, and he cited orchards which
had paid their owners from $3.50 to $3.50
an acre. The results are certsinly very

KID. THE WILD APACHE.
HE Is SAID TO HAVE KILLED AN
OTHER COWBOY.
The Wild Indian Followed Only by n
equaw, the Others Having Desert
cd Him-His Blood
thirsty Nature.

"Apache Kid" that young Arizona
aborigine who has been woven in and
out of more wild west rumances-in the
newspapers-than any other character
who has occupied public attention in
and out OF the territory since the days
when Geronimo went stalking about
with General Miles trailers on q b OF
scent, is again accused OF murder.
The Arizona Citizen OF Sunday con-
tains an account OF the murder OF cow
boy some 20 milse from Tucson, and as
no one else seems to be responsible, IL
is laid to the door OF Kid the Apache.
One or two, more or less, don't count
very much, and the Kid can probably
stand the imputations without hurting
his feelings.
Capt. Dick Falkenburg, the Arizona
scout, and one who Is particularly well
informed about the territory ever which
the Apache makes his haunts. tells
some interesting stories about the
renegade. He says that the Kid
roams about in the Galluro range OF
mountains, which extend north from
the Mexican line @ distance OF about 80
miles, and so odd miles from Tucson.
For two years he has not been seen. al
least not at very close range, but he
knows that he ia still alive. He is de-
serted by his former comrades in crime
and his sole companion now is a squaw,
whom he ran off with some time ago.
The Indian is about 20 years of age and
very slight in build. He will weigh
about 100 pounds. In disposition he is
very cowardly and treacherous, and his
assaults have always been at close range,
when he was pretty apt to be on the
safe side.
One characteristic OF his disposition ia
that when he tires OF his squsw he kills
her and goes off to San Carlos reserva-
ton and steals another. One squaw fol-
lowed him in his wanderings for over
two years but this has been an excep-
ton. His cruel nature extends to his
horses which he may pick up. If one,
after being ridden, does not suit it re-
ceives dagger thrust in the heart. A
more cruel. cowardly william OF the
Apache tribe. or any other tribe of the
aborigine race for that matter, would be
difficult to find. Captain Dick says the
stories about his education are the merest
nonsense.

SACRAMENTO, Sept. 12.-This afternoon
Governor Markham granted pardon to
ln1S-year.old boy named Ed A. White,
who was sent to prison from Kern coun-
ty for the long term Of AZ years for an in
famous crime. The boy will now secu re
his freedom next month.
That he was the victim OF spite snd
unjust prosecution appears to be the
case from the governor's remarks. In
his reasona for granting the pardon the
governor Gays:
At the time OF the commission of the
offense the defendant waa a youth only
IL years old, and, 80 far as known, did
not belong to the criminal class. All OF
the jury who convicted him say in their
petition that facts have developed since
his trial, and too late for said prisoner to
take advantage OF, which convince them
that he was innocent and should not have
been convicted. The district attorney,
j. w. Ahern, in letter saws that if he
had known certain facts before the trial.
he never would have allowed trial to
be had, as he is now Batiefied that
private spite and not the truth caused
the defendants conviction. Several
jurors informed me that they voted
guilty on general principles.
1.-THE district attorney who prosecuted
the case concurs in the above statement
OF facts.
IN. p. Lowenthal OF San Francisco
and b. U. Steinman, mayor of Sacra-
msnto, testify as to the standing of de-
fendaEts relatives in Texas, who are
anxious and willing, if said prisoner is
released. TO return him to his family,
where steady employees will be given

The remarkable action of oil upon waves

officers OF the steamship Scandal, of Ham,
burg, to make an experiment upon the same
principle which was very successful, and
which appears to us worthy of mention.-
During its last trip to the United States the
vessel, while in midicean, was overtaken
by very heavy storm. 1t then occurred to
the officers to dissolve q large quantity OF
soap in tubs of water. Having thus obtain
ed several hundred gallons of soapsuds in a

that, although soapsuds does not produce
absolutely all the effects upon water that
oil does it at least suffices in some cases to
