A singular effect from a fall on the lee
was recently experienced by Mr. John Croth-
ers. the eldest son of Mr.. Jonathan L. Croth-
ers who resides near Zion in this county. ON
Friday. the rrst inst. Mr.. CrotherS, with
probably a dozen other young men, was
skating on Warhurton's mill dam, when he
was tripped up by his skate catching IN II
crack of the ice. and was thrown, failing
upon the right side of his head He was
stunned for few moments, but was ahle 10
Oct m without help. He skated few
minutes after his fall, and started to walk
home about eleven o'clock He reached nome
in about fifteen minutes and went 10 oeu
feeling drowsv and inclined to sleep. Dr.
Clifford was summoned and prescribed for
him. On Sunday he was able to be up. ne
broke no bones, the cut on his head bleeding
n little But the unusual effect OF the fall
was that Mr.. Crothers has not the slightest
recollection OF falling, and everything from
Friday morning until Saturday morning is
perfect blank. He staid in the house unui
last Monday, and is now all right. He says
his experience was strange, and he does not
care to repeat it.

that the person who paid sum In bank
notes to the late Mr.. Edward Lumsden
on the ninth Of June last would make
himself known. Sir. on the morning Of
the day in question paid Mr.. Lums-
den, in liquidation OF n debt which had
nothing to do with the ordinary routine
of his business, ten Bank of England
notes of five pounds each. An hour
later had started for Liverpool on my
way to the States. SO that, MS il happened,
knew nothing whatever of the sad fate
which overlook Mr. Lumsden 80 soon
after my interview with him till some
days subsequent TO my arrival in New
York
MAY / ask, Mr.. Parkinson, whether
you have any record of the numbers Of
the notes paid by you TO Mr.. LumsdenY
mo record whatever, ! ann sorry TO
say"
''Is it not possible" suggested Mr..
Orde, that the person ont Of whose
hands they passed into yours may have
kept list of their numbers
Mr.. Parkinson shook his head.
"Those notes, Mr.. Orde came into my
possession in rather "A singular way.
They were found at the bottom OF an
old tea caddy which had belonged 10
my late Aunt Deborah and were handed
over TO me as her heir-at law. How
long they had been in her keeping and
whence she had obtained them was
known to herself alone"
The information impaired by Mr..
Parkinson, while elucidatory Of one
hitherto obscure feature, failed TO adj
vance the case a single step beyond tho
point at which it stood already. I'm all
probability the stolen notes had been
put into circulation weeks ago. But
whether they had or not, there seemed
no likelihood of any link being forth
coming by the aid Of which it would DO
possible TO trace them. Such was tho
opinion of Inspector Fountain, and such
was Mr.. Orde's opinion, but fate willed
otherwise.

To Dissolve tho R.ce,v.r.h,p.

Washington, D. c., Nov. 3O.-Mr.
Eckles, the comptroller of the curren-
cy, has decided to dissolve the receiy-
ership of the State Naeionnl bank Of
Denver. This will leave the great bulk
of the assets of the State National in
the hands of the receiver Of the Union
National bank, who will collect them
as trustee and not as receiver, and
when collected he will apply them TO
the liquidation of the Suite Nationals
obligation to the Union National bank.
The State National bank will proceed
in voluntary liquidation, and the fu-
ture relations of the banks will be in
accordance with the contract entered
into by them at the time of the sus.
pension. With regard to the block of
Wolftone mining stock purchased
some years ago by the directors of the
State National bank itself, the comp
troller has decided not to interfere as
requested to do by the stockholders.
who insist that this stock, which has
materially increased in value, should
be restored to the bank assets. Any
further proceedings In this matter will
have to be taken in the courts.
Rocky Ford enterprise., 1895-12-05

Whether the United States ultimately
annexes Hawaii or not 1t is her obvious
duty and privilege to afford protection
to that and other feeble American re-
publlcs. Perhaps the least Objectionable
and most effective way to do this would
be by establishing limited protectorat te
where 1t is desired, with the two-fold
object of protecting the little republics
from the entertainments of other nations,
and Of upholding the constitutions Of the
countries under protection. The latter
duty, which is the more important one,
would put a stop to the constant revolu-
tions which paralyze the progress of The
Central and South American republics,
and would gradually increase their re-
spect for their own organic law. Some
such plan us this would place the United
States in the honorable and dignified at
titude OF an older brother and would
make 1t generally recognized beneflc-
tor.

UtllI.lne All Of the rrulG

There have been many errors in tree
planting in the past. Too many varie-
ties have been set out, and improper
varieties have been chosen. In many
instances too large a proportion OF fall
fruits have been planted; hence In an
abundant season the markets are soon
will not keep prices are apt to fall be-
low remunerative point. and disap-
pointment is the result. We must
learn to meet such difficulties as these.
We must endeavor to overcome them as
we find them. This particular one
may be got over in a short time by
top-grafting the trees with late-keep-
Ing varieties; or 1t may be remedied
by the establishment of fruit evapora-
tors, whereby the surplus stock may
be reduced to such condition as Will
admit Of its being sold at later period
Of the year, and, II desired. shipped
to any part of the civilized world.
Every part of the apple may be made a
source of profit, and nothing should be
wasted. At a recent meeting of fruit
growers In Michigan, a gentleman IN
the course of his remarks gave some
statistics in regard to the profitable
ness of apples, and he said that even
the cores and skins were used at his
factory, and the profit from these
amounted in a short time to a hundred
dollars. l asked him at the close OF
the meeting what use was made OF the
cores and skins, and he assured me
they were very valuable in making ap-
pie jelly. On returning home l insti-
tuted some experiments In my own
house, and found this was correct. In
making apple sauce, too, in order to
have all the flavor of the apple. the
skins and cores should be stewed sep
arately, and the resulting liquid
poured into the apple sauce. This adds
very much to the richness and flavor
of the sauce.-D. W. Beadle.
