In this case, as in so many others, familiarity is in danger of breeding contempt The apple fails to be ap- preciated, because it is so common and so widespread. It's history is ob- scure, but interesting. There are enumerated no less than 2.000 varie- ties, and their number is still increas- ing, under cultivation. In it's wild state it is the crab apple, which is found growing in the fields throughout Europe and western Asia, seeming as much at home in northern Norway and in Siberia as anywhere. But the crab apple is small, hard and "crab- bed" and is only utilized where noth- ing better is obtained.
 The best varieties of apples grow in the temperate zones, where the summer is hot and not too short, late frosts in the spring being peculiarly destructive of the fruit. How these varieties originated is ore of the mys- teries of science, for no one can tell when he plants the seed of an apple what the fruit will be-

Long Live Apple Pie :
BY c. F. WRIGHT, LID, F. G. S. A.

There is widespread but false pre- udice against all pies, on the score of ndigestibility. But 1t is related that at one time, when Emerson and Car lyle met, they fell into a discussion concerning the reasons for their diff ferences in temperament. Whereas Carlyle was always morose and gloomy Emerson was always placid, serene and happy. Carlyle could see no reason why Emerson should not be of like temperament with himself. But Emerson thought he saw the reason in their diet. Why" he said. Car lyle, you eat nothing but horrid oat- meal, while I keep serene on pie three times a day" :.
 One cannot realize the goodness of Providence until he sets out to enu- merate the great variety of things, not only which satisfy his hunger, but which appeal to his taste, and make the table the chief center of social life. What is better than a thick apple pie, with rich, tender crusts above and below, filled with tart, crisp apples. we'll cooked. seasoned with sugar and cinnamon? There is noth. ing better, except it be turnover, which as about half the size of a small pie, with the crust turned over, as its name signifies, upon a.. sides, so as to keep all the richness in, and to be eaten without being cut. What schoolboy in the country does not re- member his mothers turnover that he carried with him for his lunch.

grating or budding. And just here is one of the greatest mysteries in the universe. One has but to insert bud from good apple tree underneath the bark of crab tree and the branch that grows from that bud will trans form the juices poured into it from the main stem and exert controlling influence over the fruit that is pro- duced. The bud from the branch of the pippin will transform the juice of a crab apple into large, highly cul- tivated and luscious pippin, as differ ent from the natural fruit as a cul- tured Caucasian is from the aborigines of Australia. How it is done no man knows. But we eat of the fruit and acknowledge that the chemistry of nature is infinitely superior to that of man.
 Apples have been cultivated from the very earliest times, the remains of them having been found in the ruins of the prehistoric lake dwellings of Switzerland, while, if we give the or dinary interpretation to the word. there was an apple tree in the Garden Of Eden. But it is difficult to tell the exact meaning of the words applied to objects which existed in prehistoric times. Many commentators suppose that, in early times, the word apple" was designation of any fruit that emitted fragrant odors. But from all we know of the earliest varieties of apples, they would scarcely have been temptation to Eve, for even as late as the times of Pliny, the only apple known was crab, "a wilding," upon which many foul and shrewd curse was poured on account of it's sour ness.
 The apple is a most valuable food, because of it's abundance, it's digesti- bility when cooked, its variety of fla | vors, and the readiness with which it can be preserved throughout the win ter season. Certain varieties of apples can be kept in cool cellars until spring, some of them, indeed, scarcely being good to eat until nearly the close of the season.
 In former generations dried apples were an essential element in every well-stocked larder. No soclal gath. ering was more interesting in former times than the apple bee, when both the old folks and the young gathered to spend an evening in pairing, quar- tering, coring and stringing apples these being the preliminary stages in those days to the process of drying Copyright, by Joseph B.

MRS. WILHELM AND SICA
TO BE TRIED SEPARATELY.

Upon application of Samuel Kalisch,
Judge Ten Eyck. in the Court of Oyer
and Terminer today, allowed a ever-
nee in the trial of Mrs. Mary J. VIII
helm and Nicholas S. Sica, indicted for
the murder of Frank Wilhelm, the
building contractor. in his home, AS
High street. last February.
The trial of the two was on two
months ago set down for mex Tuesday.
but Mr.. Kalisch argued that there
should be a separation. On that day
a trial day for the woman will be set.
1t is because of the proximity OF
Thanksgiving Day that the court is dis
inclined to begin the important trial on
Tuesday. No trial day for Sica has yet
been set.
Prosecutor Wilbur A. Mott did not
oppose Mr.. Kalisch's motion. With that
lawyer in the case are Edward 8. Black
and Eugene Dotto.

PENNSY OFFICIAL
ON RACK At STATE
PROBE OF WRECK
Superintendent Chandler Says
Tracks Were All Right a Short
Time Before Fatal Accident.
Especial to the Newark start

JERSEY CITY, Nov. 19.-J, f. Chand-
Ter, Pennsylvania railroad superin-
tendent of traction between Jersey City
and Waverly, was the first witness
called at the hearing by the State
Railroad Commission, held here today,
to determine. if possible, the cause OF
the wreck at Brunswick street n
Railroad avenue, on November 8, in
which five persons lost their lives. He
SAID that the section of track where
the accident occurred was inspected
four times a day by track-walkers n
hat he himself had inspected the
tracks and switches in the vicinity of
the scene of the wreck two days before
it had occurred and found everything
all right.
The selling of tickets after the wreck
and the failure to notify passengers
that the road was tied up was brought
up by President Frank H. Sommer.
who, with Commissioners Thomas ].
HilIery and Robert Williams, took the
testimony. Mr.. Sommer said that there
was no statute compelling the COM
pany to give such notice, and that he
intended to get an opinion from the at
to~rney-general as to whether an order
compelling such notice to be given
could be enforced.
He also said that the railroad had
already expressed its willingness to
adopt such a rule. Correspondence on
the subject was submitted in which 1t
was shown that the railroad had been
served with a notice in 1907. The re-
ply Of the railroad. saying that in the
future the rule would be obeyed, was
also read.
Mr.. Chandler said that the switch
over which the wrecked train passed
was unchanged. He declared that the
rest of the track was destroyed by the
cars passing over them after the wheels
had left the tracks.
Frank s. Kent, general car inspector
OF the New York division, testified that
he had been notified of the wreck ten
minutes after it happened, and that
he had made a thorough inspection Of
the rolling equipment. He said that
none of the wheels were broken, and
that there were no broken flanges.

COLLECTOR LOEB
GUSTS rs FROM
CUSTUMs SERVICE
Former Deputy Surveyor Of
Weighing Division in Big
Shake-Up.

NEW YORK, Nov. 19.-Collector OF
the Port William Loeb, jr., today an
nounced the removal from the customs
service of seventy-three employees and
attaches of the Weighing and other di-
visions of the customs service here.
Among those dismissed are James F.
Vail, formerly deputy surveyor of the
Weighing division; George E. Bedell.
an inspector, formerly chief clerk Of the
weighing division; James P. Hyland
and Joseph Q. Carroll, ex-foremen of
weighing districts.
The investigation in the surveyors
office was continued today. The trunks
of the passengers were traced, one OF
them to Boston. 1t was brought hack
to this city, and, with the others, sent
to the appraisers warehouse for ex-
animation, to ascertain If the tips
had anything to do with passing the
baggage.
Collector Loeb said it mattered not
whether the baggage was properly
passed or rot, as the acceptance OF q
tip was in violation of the rules, and
that when the investigation is con
cluded the papers in the case will be
sent to the district attorney for action.
Four of the inspectors suspended
were formerly assistant weighefs. MI.
Loeb refused to give the reasons for
their suspension further than to say
that it had nothing to do with their
services as inspectors. !.
That the total number of employees
implicated in frauds is between seventy
and one hundred instead of only twenty
two. as first reported, vas made known
at Washington. 1t indicates that the
customs frauds have been much greater
than had been supposed. The men to
be discharged are largely civil service
employees.
Wilbur f. Wakeman, who returned
today after a conference with Secretary
MacVeagh, was asked IL he thought
Henry G. Corsa, the Plainfield, N. j.,
sugar sampler, who exposed the crook
edness in sampling sugar when Mr..
Wakeman was appraiser, could be re
instated.
Yes" said Mr.. Wakeman, "an1 ]
would be willing to do all in my power
to have him reinstated However. ]
believe he could only be put back In
the service by executive order"
