Some readers are concerned about
report that Colorado man has pro-
duced ''seedless apple" Among other
remarkable things we are told;
He Is now preparing 20 graft his seed
less buds on every sort OF apple tree and
asserts that he will be able 10 develop
seedless apples Of every variety. He will
not reveal the secret OF his budding and
grating. The tree on which the seediess
mutt grows is unusual in that Il has no
blossoms.
This man does well not to reveal his
wonderful secret For aught we know
the tree agents may have already be-
gun to offer this apple. The state
ment that this tree has NO blossoms
and yet produces fruit Is enough 70
convince any man who ever saw an
apple tree that this is a fake. Ii
might be possible TO produce an apple
with very small core. but It is not
going TO grow on a tree which never
blossoms. Rural New Yorker.

A very strange incident occurred at
the Central High school building In
Webster, Ia, recently. Every clock in
the building stopped st exactly s
o'clock in the morning 1t was the day
OF the eruption on the island OF Java
and the time the clocks stopped was
within a very few seconds or the time
that the eruption occurred. which COW

dred people. The phenomenon is unex-
plained except that IL was very likely
due to some sympathetic electrical dis
turbance in the zone in which the high
school building stands. or course IL
may have been very strange coinci-
dence, and yet this explanation hardly
explains II satisfactorily. The phenom-
enon at the high school building was
first noticed on the second floor OF the
building. Every clock had stopped at
just s o'clock. Investigation showed
that the clocks on both the other floors
had also stopped at the same hour. In
the kindergarten building, just south
OF the high school building. all the
clocks were going as usual, nothing
having interfered with their move

Monsoon, who was chief gunner's

stead OF going to the surgeons TO have
his hurts attended to. he went below

He climbed through a scuttle into
the magazine. The woodwork was

He had nothing with which TO fight

crept nearer the explosives and Mons
son despaired. He cried for help. For
tunately water began to come in and
food the magazine. Monsoon used
his cap for bucket, and kept down
the flames until a hose was passed to
him by comrades. Nor did he leave
the magazine until the water was up
