ticulars regarding this order, see Mr..
Spencer However. we might state
that letter directed to Mr. Spen-
Ger. as president OF the seedless APP
pie Company. was received this morn
ing from Youngstown, written by n
Young man who stated that he was
1G years of age and had been tray
cling with Ringing Brothers circus.
He was an animal trainer, and had
under his charge while with the cir
Gus two monkeys, leopard. a lynx
and several other animals. In fire
all of his animals but the monkeys
and one other were destroyed, and
! II he could sell these he could secure
him leopard and lynx, and after
training them could get employment
with another circus at high wages.
Seeing Mr. Spencer's name in the
paper. he thought he would write TO
him. believing that he would help
him ont by buying the monkeys. The
letter was perhaps the most unique
ever received at the home Office Of
the Spencer Seedless Apple Com

ment. Mr. Spencer has not stated
