to Mr.. John F. Spencer, of Grand
Junction, COL, who, struck with the
success of the seedless orange, be-
lieved that similar results cou.d be
obtained with apples.
s'After several years experiment
al research he succeeded in produc-
ing five trees that bore seedless, core
less and wormless apples, and from
this little group there were budded
two thousand more trees, which, at
present, constitute the entire seed
less apple stock of the world; and
from these two thousand trees all the
rest of the world must be supplied.
It is estimated that these will have
produced about three hundred and
seventy-fve thousand nursery trees
by the fall of 1905, and that the fol-
lowing year at least two million five
hundred thousand trees will furnish
the supply.
There are many striking peculi-
arities in the development of the
seedless tree, as well as in the fruit.
AS an instance, it may be cited that
the tree is blossomless; and while
there is stamen and very small
quantity of pollen, exactly as in the
blossom of the ordinary apple tree,
yet the blossom or flower itself is
missing.
''The only thing that resembles
blossom comes in the form of several
small green leaves that grow around

The sheriff has levied upon all the
property of B. Lomberg, of Stuart
island, for payment of alimony to
his ex-wife, who secured divorce
from him short time ago in Seattle.
A few weeks after the divorce the
woman sent for Lomberg, so he says,
and agreed to give him $500 if he
would take her back and build new
house. He agreed and she returned,
with their children, and their family
relations were resumed, the little
matter of the divorce being ignored.
Some weeks ago Mrs. Lomberg
went to Seattle, ostensibly to buy
furniture for the new house, but In
stead of doing so she married another
man and proceeded to compel her
former martial partner to pay ali
mony according to the divorce decree.
Lomberg went to Seattle Thursday
to endeavor to find out where be

the little apple to shelter it. 1t is
this lack of blossom that makes it al
most impossible for the codling moth
to deposit its eggs, and this prac-
tically insures wormless apple. As
it is the blossom of the common apple
tree that is attacked by cold and
frost, the seedless apple tree is inn
mune, and the late frosts that play
havoc with the apple growers purse
by denuding his orchard may now be-
come thing of The past, and at the
same time prevent worry and in
crease profits.
ssThe seedless apple tree has a
hard, smooth bark, and may be
grown in any climate. The meat of
the new apple, like that of the seed
less orange, is very solid, and in both
there is a slightly hardened sub
stance at the navel end. Through
long development this. has almost
disappeared in the orange, and while
it is more or less prominent in the
seedless apple, it has been materially
reduced on the last generation of
trees, and all sizes tend to show that
it will grow smaller with successive
generations, as the navel end of the
orange has grown smaller.
''The apples, which are of beau
full dark-red color with yellow straw
berry dots, are of goodly size and
have a flavor similar to the Wine
Sap"

the intended visit to American waters
this autumn of Prince Louis Of Bat
tenberg, with squadron Of British
warships. consisting. as understood
here, Of four cruisers.
1t Is understood that owing to the
lateness Of the season of the arrival
on this side of the Atlantic the squad
ron will not be able to visit Newport
as 1t was desired, but will visit New
York and then Annapolis. From the
latter place the prince is expected to
come to Washington.
While the navy department is not
advised definitely of the date Of the
princes visit. it is understood that it
will take place some time in October.

proper title, should be spoken of al

out any given name. just as Mr.. Can
non is on all formal occasions the

the head of the army. The admiral
of the navy holds his rank by special
act Of congress and is recognized at
