pie COMPANY with main offices at
Dallas, are opening a branch office
In Amarillo for the Introduction OF
their rare goods IN the Panhandle
territory This office at present Is
located at the Elmhirst hotel In this
.clty and IS under the management of
h. c. Lanier general agent for the
company This being practically The
startling stage Of fruit tree planting
in the Panhandle, and tho fact that
these goods are Of the very highest
degree Of agricultural perfection, It
might be we'll for all who are IN
terestcd 10 make a thorough inyes-
tigatlon OF this new and successful
development Of the seedless apple
tree. This company also carries a
stock Of seedeas grape vine known
as the Amber variety which is the
largest seedless grape on the market
and which is o grape Of excellent
flavor and bears after two years
from the time OF planting,
A striking popularity OF the ape
pie trees is their lack OF blossoms
scientifically speaking, Of course,
there is a blossom, but the petals
which comprise the flower Of the
common apple tree, are entirely abb
sent the only resemblance to the
blossom appearing In the form OF
several small green leaves, which
grow around the little apple and
shelter IT,. This green bud, which
appears ON the seedless apple tree,
resembles the blossom ON the com
mon apple tree, II the petals Glover
or bloom) of the latter were re-

Tie green apple shows even as much
difference from the ordinary apple
bud as is shown in the sectional
view Of the rlpenod fruit
This bud, or abnormal blossom,
contains but a small quantity of pol
len, probably not over one-twonJIeth
of the amount that is on the common
apple blossom and to this, together
with the fact that the abnormal flow
ers seldom have any stamens, the
plstils therefore not being pollenated,
is attributed the seedless character Of
the apple.
The apple very much resembles
the seedless orange In that the meat
is solid and there is a slightly hard
ened substance at the so-called "blow
end The latter feature has almost
disappeared in tba orange, however,
and 1t Is less noticeable In thesapple

an apple is found with that
feature nearly eliminated Every
thing indicates that it is only
question Of time when 1t will have

The apple will average in size

Juice as the ordinary apple, and is
strictly a winter variety favoring the

In color the apples are red, when
fully matured, with yellow straw.

The meat is very firm and hard,
and It is one OF the very longest
keepers grown. The trees have a
hard, smooth bark and stand the
cold weather better il anything,
than the ordinary varieties. Early
and late frosts have never had any
effect on the fruit bearing qualities
Of these trees. They are very pro-
life bearers, strong and hardy, and
will bear fruit in any climate where
apples are grown.

A COnvict's Luck.

When Frank Thompson, of Asbnry
Park, was taken to the State Prison
to undergo IA sentence Of two years
for stealing purse last summer, he
said to Sheriff Smith who took him
there:
ITS easy for you men who have
good Jobs to be honest. When II
mans down and ont he gives way to
temptation or starves to death. Give
man good living and there's no
reason why no shouldn't be honest,
and what your well-fed moraists call
an ornament to society. "
Thompson will have an opportunity
to make good on his philosophy, for
Sheriff Smith has received word from
firm Of lawyers of Manchester, Eng
land, that the man he took to State
Prison has fallen heir to over $3.50, 0O0
by the death Of relative in that
country.
Unfortunately when he landed at
the State Prison Thompson was rec
ognized as one who had been paroled
after serving one year OF a five-ye
sentence for robbery. He will thus
have to finish ont the first term when
he has completed his two year term,
and will get no time off for good be.
bavior. Thus at the end OF six years
his fortune will have grown to close
to 5000. 900. Sheriff Smith sent his
information OF the State Prison an
thorities, and the convict has been
told OF his bright prospects for the
future.
Sheriff Smith says Thompson is one
OF the brightest aud best educated
men he has ever met, and il sure that
he will live an upright life when h {
gets ont. He says Thompson has
need OF readjusting his moral phil
osophy trihe, that is ALL He did
not seem to regard toll AZ essential tt

TO CONSIDER CASE OF John SCHUYLER,
Pardons Board Will Take Up Cause of the
Hunterdon County Murderer.
May Commute Sentence.

+ Governor Stokes has called meet.
ing OF the court of pardons, to take
place III the state house, Friday OF
tins week, to consider the application
OF John Schuyler, of Hunterdon
county, for communication of SEN
tence. Schuyler was convicted of
murder in the first degree for the
murder of Manning Riley of Califon.
Unless the court grants eommu
tation of sentence Schuyler will be
hanged November /, the latter date
being the expiration of the reprieve
recently graz ted by Governor Stokes.
The fight for communication of SEN
tenee is being made on the ground
that great many citizens of Hunter
don county believe that Schuyler is
innocent. Because of this belief, and
on the strength of letter written by
Justice Alfred Reed, who sentenced
Schuyler, that he believes the Jury
should have brought in n verdict of
murder IN the second degree. the
governor granted the reprieve that
will be acted upon Friday.
Schuyler s case has been twice be
fore the court of pardons and has
been argued i'll the supreme and
court of error aud appeals, and in
each instance the conviction was sus.
tanned.
