his house, revolver in hand. and
fired upon a passing milkman.
The milkman whipped up his
horses and Stephens pursued him
for 200 yards, firing as he ran.
Stephens then halted in the road,
placed the revolver to his breast
and discharged the weapon. The
bullet did not end his life, and he
sent a second fatal bullet through
his brain.
When neighbors and officers

they came upon a shocking scene.

The Isthmian Canal Commission
has decided to purchase the sup
plies for the construction of the
Panama Canal in Europe instead
of in America, as it is claimed
the material can be gotten i n
Europe cheaper than in the
United States. Political papers
claim that this action of the Com
mission furnishes a good argu-
ment in favor of President Roose-
velt's recommendation that the
tariff laws shonld be revised.
1t has been claimed that the pres
ent tariff law so protects some of

to sell their products in the

Imperial Graft.

According to the St. Peters
burg correspondent of the Lon
don Daily Mail, the $4,000, 900
voted to fortify Port Arthur be-
fore the war was not used for
that purpose. It is said that the
responsibility is with Viceroy AL
exieff, now Admiral Alexieff.
AS astounding as the allegation
may seem, there is a ring of
truth, or, at least, of probability,
about it. The enormousness of
the graft and the enormity of
the crime sort we'll with the con-
ditions which exists in Russia.
The contempt of Russians for the
japanese as a foe would natural
ly suggest to a Viceroy Of the
Far East that it would be child
ish to build Notifications with
money which could readily be
dumped into his own Golfers.
Had the japanese not captured
Port Arthur the matter would
probably never have been inves-
tigated, and the exchequer of AL
exieff would have enjoyed a gen
erous inceease without inconven-
fence to or effort upon the part
of the eminent nobleman. Of
course, it was essentially treason
able to divert a fertilization ap-
preparation at Port Arthur, but
danger of punishment seemed
small and $1O,OOO,OOO was large.
Grating exists in most American
cities, but such a crime as that
charged against Alexieff has not
yet been attempted by an Amer
lean, nor is it probable that such
depths of corruption will ever be
reached in the United States
for which let us be thankful.

Apples without Cores and Seeds.
There amt goin' to be- no
core" The schoolboy's joke will
soon be a reality, for there is be-
ing put on the market d coreless
and seedless apple. This result
is the product of about twelve
years of ceaseless experimenting
on the part of it's creator, John
E. Spencer.
When seedless oranges first
appeared they were bought as
curiosities, many believing that
an orange without seeds was an
impossibility, but the naval has
for some time been an accepted
wonder and what happened to
this fruit will also be the fate of
the seedless apple. And for still
stronger reasons The seed in
the orange were merely in the
way. They could not be eaten,
and so interferred with the un-
interrupted enjoyment of the
fruit. But beyond doing away
with the unpleasant features,
there was nothing gained in the
development of the seedless Or
ange. There was no waste saw
ed. Not so much with the naval
apple.
An apple without seeds is as
valuable as nut without shells
when they are sold by weight at
the same price. It not only is
without the disagreeable feature
seeds and hard seed pockets, but
fully one-fourth more of the ap-
pies can be eaten. Careful esti-
nation shows that only about
three-fourths of a peeld apple can
be consumed, the remaining one
fourth being wasted in the core.
1t is in the saving that real
marketable superiority of the
seedless apple is found. To
those who eat them it is indeed
pleasant to bite into a ripe, lus-
cious apple and find no seeds, no
no hard seed pockets and no
worms. Those who desire to
preserve the apple or make it in
to jelly, or even to evaporate the
fruit, a great saving of time is
noticed in the seedless variety.
At first the fact that the spec
les of seedless apple now being
cultivated is a winter variety
might seem to lessen it's value to
growers in the north, but this
new fruit has other strange feat
ures besides lack of seed.
Go, in the springtime, into an
orchard where the seedless apple
is grown exclusively, and. there
will be no fragrance of blossoms,
no white snow of petals as the
breeze stirs the branches. Not a
blossom in sight, yet the trees
are preparing, just as are the
seed variety in neighboring fields,
to bear fruit. The naval apple
tree does not blossom. There
fore a late frost does not in any
way interfere with the develop
ment of the fruit. This makes
the raising of seedless fruit a
great deal surer thing than the
growing of the old varieties.
There is only a semblance to
a blossom found upon the new
trees. It consists of three green
leaves, which in shape and size
greatly resembles the petals of
the regular apple blossom. These
leaves are hardy and come so
late that they are in no danger
being nipped by frost. These
leaves cover the little green ap-
Piles when they first appear, and
drop off one by one as the apples
grow large enough to face the
sunlight and storms without pro-
lection. -Ex.

CAMP McCIBBON
will Doubtless Be Scene Of Next
Great Excitement.

w. w. WshOn, of the Butte Goldfie!d
Mining and Reduction company re-
turned Tuesday from visit to Camp
McGibbon,. where his company owns
the Gila Monster group of sixteen claims.
Owing to an injury which he received
some time ago at Sodaville, Mr..
Wishon was unable to previously make
a personal inspection OF Camp McGib-
bon and, despite all he had been told by
his partner, w. A. Stevens, and others
he was greatly surprised at the splen-
did showing of the Gila Monster group
and surrounding properties.
Mr.. Wishon is no novice at mining,
having had charge of the great Specu-
lator mine at Butte, Mont, when 1t
produced over So 900 600, but he says he
never saw such massive groupings as at
Camp McGibbon. But what pleased
him most was the persistency with
which the gold showed up in the pans
He made paintings all over the ledge
and never once got a Skunk"
Mr.. Wishon left Wednesday fer San
Francisco, taking with him large num-
ber of samples which he will have tested
to determine the best method of reduc-
ing the ore.
f. S. Cunningham, of Drifton, Pa,
one of the big stockholders in the Butte
Goldfeld company, and fine mechani-
cal engineer, accompanied Mr.. Wishon
to Camp McGibbon, and az a result Of
the visit large mill to reduce the ore
will be decided upon. Mr.. Cunning
ham is also a good miner and was form
erly with the Drum-Lummon NINE at
Marvsville, the largest gold mine in
Montana. He has connections with
many wealthy men of the east and on
his report considerable capital will
do ubtless be invested in tnat section.
Development continues on the Gifa
Monster group both by tunnel and
shafts. The tinnel cuts g 5o7tocf

William II. Morrison, one of the best

put in charge and has gone down with

Sherwood McGibbon, the discoverer
of Camp McGibbon, who disposed Of

pany, has gone to the coast for q much

his interest brought will enable him to
