Apples in Missouri. - Missouri
is claiming to be a formidable rival to
the best known apple growing states.
Apples are a surer growth in Missouri
than in either New York or Michigan
because of the milder climate, 1t is
asserted. In the Ozark country the crop
has failed only three times in the past
twenty-five years. This year Missouri
alone will furnish from $12, OOO, 900 to
$4,000, 900 worth. Orchards of hun
dreds of acres are no great novelty In
the prolific Ozark country. Ex-Secretary
OF Agriculture Norman J. Colman has
5000 pear trees and 1000 apple trees,
the latter bending under the heaviest
yield they have ever borne.-Ex.

unable to lead the fight, and his fnan-

needed his attention. No sooner had
he mentioned his desire to retire from

passioned shout of disapproval, not only
from the delegates, but from thousands
of people who were crowded in the hall.

VENEZUELA Is RIGHT.
ARREST OF THE BRITISH OFF,

Surveyor Harrison Did Wrong In Co
ing Into Disputed TeFritory-Tke
Incident Not Likely TO Result
seriously-Newspsp Mad.

WASHINGTON. June 24.-Sir Julian
Pauncefote, the Britislreambassador and
Minister Andrade Of Venezuela, have
been negotiating of late upon the set
tlement Of the Uruan affair, and Incl
dentally toward opening negotiations
on the boundary question proper. There
have been delays due to the month or
more taken In the transmission OF mail
to Caracas and return, so that thus far
the negotiations have not proceeded be-
yond an Introductory stage
The arrest of Mr.. Harrison, chief of
the British surveying party on the
British Venezuela boundary, has not
been communicated TO the officials
here. 1t appears to be conceded, how
ever, that Harrison was in the wrong il
the dispatches are correct in stating
that he was on the west side OF the
Cuyuni river. Mr.. Chamberlain, sec
retary of state for the colonies, laid
down the Cuyuni as part of the pro-
yisional boundary, pending settle-
ment, so that it is said the British will
not make the contention that Harrison
was right in preceding beyond this
provisional boundary. This takes from
the incident its serious aspect, as Harri-
son is noS likely to be supported by the
vigorous British protest that was at
first anticipated.
A London special says: The Press
association announces that the British
foreign office is expected to take decided
measures in regard to the arrest of Mr..
Harrison, the crown surveyor of British
Guiana, by the Venezuelans.
The British newspapers comment on
the matter in violent language.

Wage Farmers as Wives.

In a recent competition in the New
York World for the best answer to the
question, "Does Wage Earning Unfit
Woman For Domestic Life?" Mayor
Strong awarded the prize to the writer
Of the following letter: "The best and
most contented wife is one who has
marched in line with wage earners
through every stage Of mental and phys
ical tiredness; who, from the severely
practical standpoint of experience in
earning dollar, has learned the value
III it; whose contact with the outside
world has broadened her sympathy and
general knowledge; who has been de-
MED care and consideration, and who.
through earning enough of salary,
perhaps, to partially satisfy her tastes
for the beautiful in life, in art or study,
is allowed no time for anything but an
Unsuitable longing for the same. To
such woman the care and protection
of husband, the shelter of home, is
a heaven. Any womanly woman from
out the ranks of the business world will
prove by lifetime of devotion and help
fulness her appreciation of and her fit
ness for domestic life il her husband be
half worthy"

New
New YORK, June 24.-The first big
gun of the Republican campaign in this
city was fired at Carnegie Music hall
last evening. The meeting was held
under the auspices of the Republican
county committee, and Thomas @. Platt
broke time-honored custom by max
ing speech. The list of vice presi-
dents included many of the prominent
Republicans of this city. Scarcely any
of the anti-Platt Republicans. however,
were present
Edward Lauterbach, who presided,
introduced Mr.. Platt, saying that Mr..
Platt was peerless leader, and had re-
turned from St. Louis convinced that
MARK Hanna is a first-class boss, "
When Mr.. Platt arose to respond he
was loudly cheered. The cheers were
renewed when he said that his presence
there proved the falsity of the old
proverb that dead men tell no tales. "
"May my words sink into your minds"
he added, las those of man who has
risen from the grave, and that often.
Platt said in part:
The Republicans of New York are
united In behalf of the candidates that
were nominated and the platform that
was adopted at St. Louis. hope they
will be no less united In all matters that
affect the welfare of their party and the
honor Of their state. ! am always ready
to set the example of cheerful acquiescenct
In the will Of tho majority.
And as an earnest Of this purpose let US
give three cheers loud enough TO be heard
from Montauk Point to Buffalo, for Mo
Kinley, Hobart and harmony.
