 As q result the apple dealers of this city who have been hand ling from 75 to 100 loads oi ap- pes per day received but few loads of apples, even the first day after the decision took effect. Whether the growers will prove successful as middlenen or whether they will be forced to seek the help of this class, yet remains to be seen.

SUPPOSED BURGLAR
 DEAD NEAR HIWASSEE

Siloam Springs, Ark, Aug. 1o. The body of a dead man has been discovered in the timber d half mile west of Hiwassee by some person who was hunting COWS.
 \ phone message to Coroner Petty says the. dead man was d stranger. The body was badly deeomposed, indicating that the man had been dead several days.
 The body had number of blue spots, indicating that they were the result of blows. In his pockets was found some money badly burnt.
 The circumstances furnish a strong probability that the dead man was one of the gang that robbed the two stores at Center ton and Beaty last week. The body indicates death at time about as remote as that of the robberles ard the burnt money k the strongest clue.
 Tine theory is that the man Was killed by hls partners in q row over tie division of the stolen money.

The Fatal Bowsprit,

Now, If you have never reefed Il miz-
zen or jigger. as we generally call it,
on a small boat running off under a
press of sail in a seaway, you have
never done an acrobatic stunt that
knocks out the most thrilling feats Of
the arena. 1t is not so bad as laying
out on the headspar to shift jib.
because the wet is left out, and there
fore it is job not so detested by
seamen. Working on the bowsprit is
most dreaded Of all sea jobs. More
men lose their lives off that spar than
from all other parts Of the ship to-.
gether. Driving along she takes a
plunge into 1t. at the same time the
heavy foot Of the sail bangs across,
knocking off your hold. and overheard
you 80 to be swept under and trodden
upon by the swift rushing forefoot. A
dark night on a jib boom with half
nuzzled sail storming about and the
spar end pitching. bucking and forking
