THE plant industry bureau Of the de-
L partment of agriculture has de-
cided that the apples of the country
are not sufficiently utilized for food
purposes and has issued bulletin of
advice to the farmers, telling them
how to use the stock that is of too
poor a grade for the general market
1t pays special attention to the "evap-
grafton" of apples as being particu-
larly valuable in using up the fruit
that might ordinarily go to waste.
1t points out that the portion of a
fruit crop which is of too low grade
to market in the ordinary way can
often be made to pay at least a large
part of the expense of maintaining
the orchard or fruit plantation if it is
converted into some other form or
handled in some way other than that
practiced with the better grades. The

Wild Deer Grazing Near Town.

Citizens of Weymouth, a small
town about six miles from here, for
several days past have been enjoying
the beautiful sight of a herd of wild
deer feeding in a large field. Several
small boys first saw them, and the
news soon becoming general, the
whole population of the village was
out witnessing the sight.
The deer emerged from the woods
and slowly and cautiously walked out
into the field to Craze. Daily the
deer, six In number, keep up thei.

newspapers suffered during the years
of Russian tyranny. In 1899 81 papers

The loss to the u papers was about

End Of Pullman as a FeudaI City.


George NJ. Pullman's dream of
model city has at last vanished in
thin air. His vision of a Utopia for
laboring men is shattered. 1t is a
thing of the past. 1t was the supreme
court of Illinois that punctured the
bubble, and the town of Pullman, ia
nous the world over as an ideal
manufacturing town, takes its place
along with the numerous other
suburbs of Chicago, and its Utopian
existence comes to an end To be
sure. the red brick city remains, with
its 10000 inhabitants, but the great
Pullman company does not own it
from center to circumference, as it
once did. One by one the tenants are
buying the cottages and dwellings in
the town, and it will not be long be-
fore the 1000 houses will be sold.

FIGHT TO SAVE JUDGEsHIPS.
Maryland Democrats Especially Ac-

Special to The Washington Herald.
Baltimore, Oct 17.-Some of the Dem
ocratic leaders are concerned over the
situation regarding the election of judges
in at least two OF the circuits of the
State, and are making especial efforts
to save the candidates in those two cir
cults.
In the Seventh circuit Chief Judge
John p. Briscoe is a candidate for re-
election. His opponent, Gen. L. Allison
Wilmer, isS president of the state Bar
Association. and the counties composing
the circuit are normally Republican.
The fight between these two men Is
peculiarly bitter one, by reason of the
fact that Gen. Wilmer was the candi-
date against Judge Briscoe fifteen years
ago, and the Republicans have always
contended that he was counted out on
that occasion.
The other circuit where the situation
is unsatisfactory, is the Second. where
the Democratic candidates are both
