ward ran general store in Rutland for
several years. Mr.. Stearns first came in
TO prominence as an officer in 1874 when
he found in Boston a variety Of articles
which John p Phair had stolen from Anna
Z. Freese whom he murdered. This evil
dence was Of great aid in convicting Phair.

% years, and his experience in arresting
men in lumber camps and mountain fast
nesses would ill volume. He had repeat
eddy tracked fugitives from justice through

and judgment. He was elected alderman

Tn. Bosr1 ForI ,rn struggle.

There appears to be a renewal of Boer
activity in South Africa. Several severe
engagements are reported and though they
seem to have resulted in favor of the Brit
ish it is none the less surprising that they
should have taken place. 1t is obviously
so useless to continue the struggle, inhict-
ing death and suffering on both sides
without anything to be gained on the part
of the Beers, that the action of their lead
ers in keeping them in the field is little
short of criminal. There is a constant
stream of burghers pouring into the Brit
ish camps and surrendering, but De Wet
and Steyn and Botha still refuse to give
up. 1t is alleged that this obstinacy on
their part will prevent Lord Roberts from
returning to England before January.

Hold the Apples.
Prof. Waugh Believes the Crop Has
Been OvsrestImsted and the Market
Differentiated.

"
Prof. Waugh Believes the Crop Has
Been OvsrestImsted and the Market
Differentiated.
The apple crop in the United States and
Canada is unusually large, and prices are
correspondingly low. In fact they are too
low. They are bound to go up. This is
practically proven by the rapid manner in
which spectators are taking up all the ap-
pies in sight Apple spectators do not buy
on a falling market.
Professor Waugh of the Vermont ex-
pertinent station, in speaking Of this mat
ter, points out that there are certain feat
ures of the situation the apple growers
have generally failed TO appreciate. He
sums them up as follows:
1. The crop has been practically, If
not absolutely overestimated. The state
ments that the present crop greatly ex-
ceeds that Of 1895 have been industriously
circulated by apple buyers and solely in
the endeavor to keep prices down.
2. The market has been underestimate.
Il has been assumed that the market is no
better than in 1896, while the fact is that
it can handle a much larger quantity of
fruit. Then the market was not organ
lied. Buyers we're not in touch with sell
ers. Especially the whole European outlet
had not been developed. Now all that is
changed for the better. Then growers
shipped thousands of barrels of windfalls
and worthless fruit which this year they
will have sense enough to keep at home.
8. The market has been temporarily un'
settled by the great quantity of fall fruit
sent in and by the remarkable crop oil
windfalls harvested by the September
gales. Buyers have shrewdlY taken ad
vantage Of this temporary decentralization
to contract for winter apples, though late
keeping varieties are not properly affected
by Il.
4. The probable price of winter fruit
has been generally underestimate. Tn,
price has ranged thus far from 81 to 81 81
a barrel, although a few lots have beer
contracted at 50 or even as high as SO
These latter figures do not represent thu
present market offerings, however. Blu
even in 1896, when all possible advers,
conditions conspired to keep down prices
good winter apples sold late in the season
at s.. so 10 81 barrel. The same class o
fruit, at the same season, will doubtless sci
higher this year.
The permanent moral is that only late
keeping standard market varieties ough
to be grown, and that the grower ought Il
put himself in position to hold his apple
for few weeks or months when necessa
| ry; and the golden text for immediate ap
plication, is that growers who have frs
class winter fruit on hand ought not TO sci
any sooner than circumstances compe
them to.

Our warshIps Leave TaLu.

The withdrawal of all but two of the
American warships from Taku will be re-
garded as indicating that the government
believes the troubles in China are in fair
way of being settled by diplomacy, or at
least that it does not intend to be drawn
into any armed scramble for territory. The
Powers have not yet appointed peace COM
missioners, and Ii Hung Chang has not
yet shown the credentials which, it is
claimed, have been given him authorizing
him to act as plenipotentiary. The activity
of Count Won Waldersee in planning and
carrying out military operations is not a
hopeful sign, as it seems unnecessary to the
other Powers and is thought to be the
cause of much of the unrest among the
Chinese.

lance ridden over roads near Valley
Stream, Long Island, was 300 hours, 2
minutes. This is better time by three
hours than Will Brown, the former long
distance champion, made over the same
course several months ago. Miss Cast
started out to break the 1900 mile record
of Mrs. Lindsay, which was 164 hours and
40 minutes, and she succeeded in making
this distance in 1872 hours, although rain
fell much of the time the first two DAYS.
In addition to the downpour two days she
was obliged to face gales and drizzling
rains. The roads we're muddy during over
one-half of her ride. Miss Cast is 90 years
old, five feet and two inches tall, and
weighs 1876 pounds. She was in good
physical condition at the end of the 200O
miles, and after good nights rest started
out to make a record for 5000 miles.
