Wrecks Hoodoo of New Rochelle.
I'M the New York TrIhune,

From the New York Tribune
1t is doubtful If there is any other place
In the United States where more people
have been killed and injured in railroad ac-
cidents than in New Rochelle Beginning
with the Park avenue tunnel wreck In 1e0@
the city has had the misfortune to suffer
in two other disasters-the wreck or the
twentieth century limited at Mentor. Ohio,
and the second collision in the Park avenue
tunnel last week.
A New Rochelle resident was killed in
each of the latter accidents, while all todd
about eighty persons of the city have been
injured. A half dozen more New Rochelle
people have sheen added TO the death list by
local railroad accidents, among them Alder
man J. Edward Cowles, Edward Sweet
Edward Hardy and Edith Roberts, the lit
tie girl who was killed last Thursday while
crossing the tracks on her way home from
school.
The amount Of damages paid by the rail-
road companies on account of the accidents
aggregates more than Sl,OOo,OyO, while
many suits are still pending. New Roche!le
seems TO have suffered misfortune more by
chance than for any other reason. as both
trains which were wrecked In the tunnel
happened 10 be expresses stopping in that
city.

APPLES of Pecos Valley.

From the World Today.
In this setting lies the great apple orchard
of nearly six hundred acres. Through my
long window, as I write, I can see beyond
the Pecos, on the east, Comanche Draw.
down which the bucks poured on their way
to the westward mountains; and through
the window at my shoulder come the
cooling of countless turtle doves. the varied
gayety of the mockingbird and the spicy
fragrance of the wind blowing from the
orchard over tall, wild sweet clover. Three
quarters of a mile away to the west the
orchard house and packing sheds lie con-
ceaied among the ten-year-old trees. 1t is
worth while to take the stroll just at sun
rise when the unpaintable colors are lying
on the Pecos bluffs, and TO pass through
the straight avenues of the orchard where
fruit hangs heavy on the branches, drench-
liant. and one walks under Italian skies
and clouds such as are piled up in Leon
arCos pictures.
In March there is a riotous profusion of
annie blossoms in these miles of trees. In
June the Red Astrakan, the Maiden Blush
and the early varieties come on; and by the
middle of August the coloring of the APP
piles and the bending trees announce the
serious business or picking. Then senti-
ment disappears. and the practical work
of picking, sorting, packing and shipping
the apples begins. Commercial considera-
lions now predominant. Among all possible
yarieties-Jonathan, Ben Davis, Winesap,
Arkansas Black York Imperial, Grimes
Golden Bell Flower, Mammoth Black Twig,
Yellow Twig and many, many others-dis-
tinct characteristics disclose themselves:
some crack open some drop too soon, some
bear too heavily for the rapidly growing
fiber of trees in this climate Therefore,
the picking of each variety is timed 10 a
nicely by experts.
To gather seventy or a hundred thou
sand bushels of apples is In itself an APP
palling task The laborers are both Ewes
and Adams. Long before the opening day
arrives mysterious Bedouin encampment
begins to arise on the open ground about
the orchard. Here canvas-covered schoon-
ers converge from every claim on the plains
where a little ready money is needed TO
piece out scanty crop. Hundreds are har-
bored in this village OF tents and wagons.
