THE other day, a small tin box was
taken from the ruins OF Trinity church,
in Portland, that had been placed in
the cornerstone when laid, April 25th,
1872. The building was destroyed by
fire some years ago. When the box
was opened, its contents we're found to
be in an excellent state of preservation.
1t contained books, newspapers and
pamphlets of the day. Among the
newspapers was one containing as a
personal the statement that Rev. Il.

gone to Olympia to dedicate a chapel.
The box will be again deposited with
the old cornerstone, in the walls OF
the new building, June 18th next.

THAT SEEDLEss APPLE.-It seems
that John F. Spencer is the originator
of the variety corresponding with the
seedless orange, noted in our last issue.
He resides at Grand Junction, Col,
and the freak imposed upon nature
was the result of seven years study and
experiment. 1t was suggested by the
orange which had been made to grow
without seeds. He reasoned that if it
was possible to destroy termination in
the one it was the other. He origi.
nally produced five trees that would
produce seedless apples and then ex-
perimented to Gee if he could make
the buds reproduce others. In this he
succeeded and secured forty additional
trees. From these he has budded g..
600 more. Spencer claims that with
the seedless apples many diseases due
to the laying of eggs by moths in the
apples blossoms will be avoided.
