Oapt. B F. Rockafellow informed
The Record yesterday that the apple
crop on his Fruitmere orchard this
season would exceed shat Of any year
in its history. except 1895. and that
the total product would be more than
5000 barrels.
He has already shipped upwards Of

The members Of the irrigation com

Roman Epicuraa.

A certain Roman epicure once
gave little dinner to nine friends.
1t cost $4,000. Oysters brought
by footmen from Britain were con-
sumed in quantities. The Roman
gastronomy favored such delicacies
as peacock, guinea hen, nightingale,
thrushes, perhaps a whole boar stuff
fed with the flesh Of other animals.
But fish was the especial dainty.
Vitellius, we are told, had his fish
weighed alive before him at the Ia
bic. Bets were made on the dura-
ton of its expiring gasps. His broth
er once served him a dinner at
which 1000 of the choicest fish were
used. He often dined out, and none
of the meals ever cost his host less
than $4,000. Apicius, after vast
ing nearly $3,000,0O0 in feasting,
discovered to his dismay that he
had but little over S400, 900 left.
This being too little for q gentle
man to exist on, he calmly killed
himself.

A CUT OR TORN ARTERY.
How 70 Stop Dangerous BLEEDING On
Cases Of Aceidsnk.

How to Stop Dangerous BLEEDING In
Cases Of Aeeidsnk.
II often happens in cases Of 90
eident that the danger to life il
greatly increased by. if not solely
dependent upon, the loss Of blood,
the injury itself being a compare
lively trivial affair. Whether light
or serious, the wound can wait, in
deed in most cases must wait, for
the arrival of the physician, but the
bleeding waits for nothing. It
must be arrested speedily, and if il
is not stopped by some one on the
spot or if it does not cease spon-
taneously the coming Of the physi-
cian may be useless, Tor the wounds
of a dead man need no binding.
In classes of instruction In first
aid to the wounded this point il al
ways insisted upon, and rightly, but
unfortunately how bleeding from q
cut or torn artery can be quickly
and certainly arrested is not always
clearly enough explained. The pu-
pills study diagrams depicting the
course and direction Of the large
arteries, and round black or red
disks are placed at the points where
pressure can be effectively applied
to shut off the flow Of blood from
the parts lower down on the limb.
The application of q tourniqust In
taught, and sometimes even the
mode of tying an artery (which 10
surgeons work and not to be at
tempted by any member Of q first
aid class) is elaborately explained.
But sometimes the lecturer forgets
to say that the most copious bleed
ing can always be arrested tenn
porarily and often permanently by
simple pressure made directly on
the bleeding point. If you can put
you finger Qiterally) on the source
of the hemorrhage and keep it there
your wounded companion will not
bleed to death, at least not while
under your care.
One must make sure in doing this
that the finger is really making
pressure on the bleeding point,
which may be deep down at the bot
tom of the wound, but the contin-
uance of the bleeding will soon
prove that the finger or the cloth
pad or the rounded stick or what
ever is used to make pressure with
is not pressing on the right spot.
Care must be taken not TO soil the
wound with dirty fingers or q dirty
rag. If time and opportunity per-
nit The finger should first be washed
or at least wiped with a clean cloth,
and if cloth pad is used the outer
layers at least must be free from
visible dirt.
In almost any company some one
may be found who has q clean hand
kerchief in the pocket. One which
has not been unfolded is best, for
this can then be folded inside out
and made up into a clean pad Of any
desired shape. - Youths Compan-
ion.

prospect Of witnessing the restoration Of
order, and the comparative security Of
life and property. The military has now
adopted drastic measures to force the
disorderly mobs to return to their homes.
The London Standards correspondent
at Odessa says:
Within three hours or the declaration
of martial law. which came to the I'M
speakable relief OF peaceable citizens, no
fewer than 5000 rufiianly loyalists have
been disarmed by the students and the
military. How some 10000 artisan fow-
lies became possessed of revolvers and
an abundance Of cartridges is Il ques-
ton requiring solution. The rigorous eur

from the terrors Of the last two days.
Anyone in the streets after nightfall in

WEEKS HAPPENINGS
NEWS OF THE WEEK IN A CON-
DENSED FORM.
Robbers Break into Milwaukee DE
not at Sioux Falls and Blow safe
They Secured but Little Money
"A Merry Piece of Work.

About 10 o'clock Saturday night rob
bers broke into the Milwaukee freight
DEPOT at Sioux Falls, blew open the safe,
and made away with about $50 in money.
The robbery was about the boldest ever
committed in Sioux Falls, everything
considered. The safe was blown with
two charges of explosives before lo
o'clock in a building situated on the bus
mess street Of the city, and ~dlagonally
across the street from one of the leading
hotels, and within n block of the passcn-
ger depot of the Milwaukee road, where
a number of clerks were ut work.
An engineer of the Milwaukee COM
pany heard two explosions rs he was
passing the building on the other side of
the street. He became suspicious that
something was wrong and started to-
wards the depot. He saw w men make
their way from the rear of the depot to-
wards the Sixth Street bridge. The en-
gineer then went to the passenger depot
and notified the men at work there OF
what he had seen. Together they made
their way to the freight depot. On gain
ing an entrance they were met by Il
thick smoke and the smell Of burning
powder. The door and windows were
opened and the room cleared of the
smoke. Then it was discovered that the
safe had been blown to pieces. Paper
and bits of the safe were all over the
floor.
While the burglars got only $50 for
their trouble they overlooked II draft for
$500 and thirty dollars which was in m
envelope. The robbers undoubtedly
thought that large sums of money were
kept in the safe over Sunday.
Entrance was gained through n window
in the east side of the depot. The bur-
glars were exceedingly bold to blow z
safe so early in the evening and at such
a conspicuous place. The Milwaukee
has Il passenger train in from the south
about s o'clock and it is altogether likely
that the robbers were ut work on the safe
rs the passengers from the train were
filing by.

DR.. John Rogers Peale was Il new mis-
sionary, who sailed from this country

Gated at the Lafayette College and the

DR.. Chestnut is n well known physi-
clan in Chicago, having been sent out as

ARE MAD WITH JOY.
Russians Rejoice Over Liberty CIV
en- by Gar


st. Petersburg adyices state that Count
White Tuesday summoned a conference
of the editors OF all the st. Petersburg
newspapers and asked for their ana ana
cooperation in restoring normal condi-
ions and securing the confidence OF TIE
people in the new regime. The editors
expressed the fullest confidence in White.
but declared they could not publish their
papers without the consent of the strike
committees.
The editors of the radical papers SAID
that to content the people it was neces-
sary to give the fullest amnesty to politi-
cal prisoners and remoy Gen. Trepoft,
the Cossacks and other military forces
from the city.
White said the government intended to
proclaim amnesty, and a manifesto was
being prepared.
On the whole the day passed more
quietly than had been expected, though
collisions between the people and the
troops are reported from P~oltava, Kazan
and Kishineff. Two men were killed.
In each of the two capitals, st. Peters
burg and Moscow, the day was one such
rs the Russians never before have seen.
The Slavic temperament, which before
the long war just closed and the anxious
period preceding the announcement of the
new era of cOnstitutionalism, seemed self
restrained and apathetic, gave itself up
fully to the exuberance of the moment
and spent the entire day in parades and
assemblies, which, for the first time in
the history of Russia, were freely per-
mitted. Under orders Of Count Witte
and Gen. Trepoff the troops generally
were withdrawn from the streets of the
cities and the fullest rein given the peO-
pie to let out their enthusiasm in demon
STATIONS, which, so long as they were not
destructive were not interfered with.
1t was a significant omen that after II
fortnight OF gloomy and depressing wealth
er, symbolic OF the days of the strike, the
sun shone out brightly Tuesday in st. Pc
t%ersburg. and brought Il radiant Indian
summer day. The scenes in st. Peters
burg reminded the observer of vents in
an American university town after Il
great football victory, but a thousand
times magnifed.
