PEOPLE We MEET.
ttERoM all indications the crop .

kkEROM all indications the crop OF
/ apples this year will equal the
remarkable growth Of 1896, which was
the largest ever known" said II. u. Bel
knap, New York merchant
"As general thing light and heavy
crops alternate between the East and
West. This season. however, both sec
tions appear to have Jared
Apple Crop we'll, and there are plenty
is of apples, good, bad and
e,os,oos F" Indifferent. New York
state had an enormous
yield but Of varied quality. In West
ern New York, while the yield is very
large, the fruit is not so good all the
way through as is usually the case. In
the Hudson river valley the yield is ex-
celent in both quality and quantity.
"In some OF the apple sections the
fruit has been badly damaged by fungus
growth like scab, and will not be bar
relied for shipment, but Is being sent to
the cider mills instead. In view OF this
fact, il is believed that there will be much
more cider making and evaporating than
is usually the case.
Large quantities OF the poorer grades
of apples are said to be rotting in the
orchards for lack Of anthracite coal,
which is used in the evaporatng process.
The evaporatcd fruit output of Western
New York, much of which is exported,
amounts to between $5,ooo,ooo and
Sc, 900 900 annually.
"The apple crop in Illinois, California,
Oregon, Michigan and throughout the
New England states, with the exception
OF Vermont is reported as being excep-
tionally good.
despite the generally large crop. apples
are always shipped from one section OF
the country to the other. Inc Ben
Davis which is one of the staples OF
the West, is being shipped to New York
for export, and popular eating apples not
grown in the West are being shipped
from the East. Newton pippins are be
ing shipped in large quantities from Cali
fornia for export to England, where they
bring $s.so a box. The export trade in
apples has been growing steadily since
1880, when it first began to be OF conse.
quence. Large shipments have been made
from New York. Boston, Portland, Me-,
Montreal and Halifax, chiefly to Liver
pool, London, Glasgow and Hamburg.
Owing to the cold and wet weather in
England and on the continent during the
past season the crops oil apples ana otner
fruits were very poor, and in consequence
the shipments of apples from this coun
try have grown very largely. At one time
almost any kind of apple was exported,
but they are coming i'll so rapidly now
that only the choice ones are being sent
abroad. The best grades of apples are
always in demand at very good figure.
"That is very in

Advance sheets of Poor's Manual are
full of interest and furnish splendid re-
hex OF the country's prosperity On
June 30, 1902, there were 100000 miles
of railways in this country, about 1890
miles of new line having been built last
year. The total receipts from all roads
were 81 ,61a, 900 900, and the net earnings
were almost 5000, 900. There were
over $4,000 engines, 10000 mail and pas
senger cars and 100000 freight cars in
use If these were put into continuous
train they would reach $4,000 miles The
average dividend paid on railroad stock
is 2.62 per cent.

JUSTICE FOR A CHILD.
Punishment by Object-Lessons in the
Children's Court.


Chldren's Court.
New York Evening Post.l
Justice Mayer was presiding in the chill
dren's court today, when policeman ar
raigned before him Hyman Cohen of No.
40 Henry street. Hyman is nearly years
old, and when the policeman told the JUS
tce that he had caught him throwing
stones at a passing horse, he admitted the
truth of the charge.
"Why did you throw the stones JUS
tce Mayer said.
"1t's fun to see them jump when you
hit EN-" the lad replied.
Fun is it 7" asked the court. "All right.
/ want to have some fun. too. Mr.. Coulter
(to the clerk), where is that big boy just
sent to prison for throwing stones?"
I'm the yard"
"Well, then, take this boy out there and
let the big boy throw stones at him. We
will have lots of fun when the stones hit
him and he jumps"
Hyman was unmoved until he reached
the partition that separates the door from
the corridor, and then he broke down and
wept.
Bring him back" called out the justice.
"Why, Hyman, I'm surprised at you.
What are you crying for?"
"The stonesll hurt me" whimpered the
child.
Don't you think the stones you threw
hurt the horse?"
Hyman admitted that perhaps his stones
did hurt the horse He promised, between
sobs, that he would never throw any more
stones, and heard with awe the policeman
pledge to telephone the court every day as
to how he was keeping his word.

CLEVELAND AND THE DEMOCRACY

Mr.. Cleveland has once more emerged
what it must do to be saved In letter
to the New York World he says:
at seems TO me that the democratic
situation is such as TO awaken the salts
faction and hope OF every thorough and
consistent democrat. Our party has GER
tanly rcgaincd its old-time fighting con-
dition, and recovered the morale that
promises old-time success and prestige.
II think. however, while we can safely
assume that we are not Immediately
threatened with repetition of undcmo-
cratic hcresy, there are palpablc dangers
10 be avoided, IL the rcjuvenation of the
democracy is not to be obstructed. The
movement toward the rejuvenation tends
to complete abandonment of Our late
yielding to the temptations of cxpediency,
as against a firm adherence TO democratic
doctrines.
"The condition neccssitates, in my opin-
ion both in the cnunciation of platform
principles and the selection Of candidates,
a sturdy and determined march TO- the
goal Of substantial and thorough dcmoc-
racy. In other words | believe that, If
the democratic party is tempted, under
mistaken apprehension Of the meaning
Of the revival of true democratic senti-
ment, to stop short of this goal and tenn
porizc by presenting to the people n plat
form, principles and candidates not en-
tircly in keeping with an absolutely
changed policy it will fan to convince the
people Of its sincerity or to satisfy them
that it can safely be trusted.
.C,,.I, no,I,t;op hnttar he
described than by the homey illustration
chairs Such behavior would discourage
sincere and thoughtful democrats now
hopeful and expcctant. and repel large
independent contingent who seek relief
from the needless arrogance Of the repub-
lican party"
The solemn disciple of free trade
could not, of course, resist the tcmpta-
ton to take fling at the republican
tariff which has built up the industries
republicans out OF democratic working
men. 1t is his view that "the hope of
the democratic party lies in the inevitable
discovery by our people OF its benehcent
aims and purposes. Already the benef-
ciares of the high protective tariff are SO
reduced in number, and the benefits de-
rived from protection are so palpably les
sened, even as applied to the selfish in-
terests OF those who have heretofore in-
sisted upon its continuance, that they are
inclined TO receive with favor the adop-
ton OF the democratic doctrine of tariff
for revenue"
This hope OF the democratic party will
find no abiding place in the great heart
OF the people of the West, and the re-
suits Of the late election give no sign that
it will have better luck in the East The
people of the West were hit hard by the
Wilson German bill, which closely APP
preached Mr.. Cleveland's ideal, and, to
employ popular phrase, they will moi
"stand for it" second time.

HEATING TOWN BY ELECTRICITY
Plans for the Work in Switzerand-De-
tails Of Plant
New York Evening Post1

tdtiS W TldIu
New York Evening Postl
1t has been decided to heat the sana-
forums of Davos-Platz and Daine- Dorf,
in Switzerland, by electricity, in order to
avoid all contamination of the air BY
a district about a mile long, and between
smoke or gas. The two settlements cover
1000 and 1900 feet wide. with about 3,oop
population, and during the winter s,5ob
patients. There is plenty of water power
available, SO ii was concluded to adopt the
plan. The heaters to be used are of two
types, the first being nothing but a re-
Sistancc coil covered by enamel, and the
second, which is to be used for cooking,
consisting of a small alternating ng-current
transformer, which induces local currents
in the base of the cooking utensil itself.
IL Is estimated that the energy required for
the whole settlement will be $4,000 horse
ing, $3.50 for bakeries, $4,000 for laun-
power hours for heating, $4,000 for cook.
dries, and 5000 for baths, making 26S,I5o
horsepower hours per day of winter,
which gives all estimated hourly horse
power of II,aoo for the plant. The figures
are criticised, however, as being too high,
especially in the estimate for cooking, and
the results obtained in the Paris Exposi-
Va iDoo dlS SllSu eVluSHCc. AC-
cording to these results, it is declared that
the total horsepower hours should be sa8,-
900, which would make plant of $500
horsepower sufficient. This power can
be obtained from two streams about I2H
miles from Davos, with fall OF over 900
feet.
The central station will contain five
sets OF 5000 horsepower each. Each tur-
bine will be coupled directly in two three
phase alternators of 1900 horsepower
each. The alternators generate a poten-
tial of 5000 volts, and two being coupled
in series give a pressure of 10000 volts
which is sent out over the line. The an
nual expense of this service, including in
terest, depreciation and cost of operation,
is estimated at ,$I6S'ooo. The consump-
tion of energy for the year will be as,ooo,-
900 kilowatta alo,irs,. Aso that the price per
kilowatt-hour' will be about = of I per
cent. This cost is not regarded as excess
sive for heating, while the advantages of
its use in cooking and the avoidance of
all smoke, are more than sufficient to war
rant the undertaking.

In certain sections of Michigan much
trouble is being experienced in securing
competent pastors to fill the pulpits. The
trouble doubtless arises from the fact that
ability finds better reward in other
walks of life. The minister of the gospel
is not always adequately compensated in
