FOR
APPLE SHOW
w. W. SAWYER COMES WITH A
CARLOAD OF GRIMES GOLDEN
THREE FULL CARS FROM
NORTH YAKIMA.

| spokane, wash, oct. 1S.-E1ghty
thousand apples of the Grimes Gold
en- variety, of which full carload of
$50 boxes, ranging from 112 for f.
tier to 1876 for other grades, will be
exhibited by w. W. Sawyer of Sc
attic at the second National Apple
Show in Spokane, November Is to
20, were received here October 16
from his Hillcrest orchard at Sunny
side in the Yakima valley. Mr.. Saw
yer, who has the distinction of bring
ing the first carload to the ground
for this years show, has placed the
apples in cold storage and will begin
work in a few days to arrange for
the decoration of his display, which
is entered in the carload class, and
will also compete for the sweepstakes
of 500 and the title of quality ap-
pie king of America.
Mr.. Sawyer is also arranging to
enter car of mixed apples at the
Philadelphia exposition in December.
after which he and Mrs. Sawyer will
make tour of the eastern and south
ern states, returning home by way of
California. Mr.. Sawyer looks upon
the coming show in Spokane as the
best means yet devised to popularize
the apple as food and fruit, also
that 1t will arouse worldwide inter-
est in the apple industry in the north
west and bring the orchard products
prominently before the handlers as
well as the prospective settler. AS
an exhibitor he looks upon it as a
purely business proposition, firmly
believing that as a dividend-payer it
is without rival
Mr.. Sawyer said that his carload is
made up largely OF Alter size, add
ing that the apples are free from
blemishes of any kind and that every
apple on the top tier of each box has
pink cheeks. the acme of perfection
sought by growers of the Grimes
Golden. They are the pick of 107
trees in two acres, which yielded l.
500 boxes this season, for the pro-
duct of which he was offered an aver
age of 1925 a box or s3,375 for the
crop. His orchard embraces 40 acres
of which 20 acres are in bearing this
year, aother varieties being Wine
saps, Rome Beauties. Jonathans and
Spitzenbergs
cat least three other carloads will
be sent to Spokane from the Yakima
valley" he said, land in addition
there will be smaller exhibits, rang
ing from 10 boxes to a plate of five
apples.
Robert Morgan, who prepared the
exhibit for H. NJ. Guilbert of North
Yakima last year. will pack our dis
play, which we believe will be we'll
worth seeing. 1 have seen the plans
for exhibiting the displays and they
are satisfactory; in fact, the best 1
have ever seen anywhere. as all en-
tries in the various classes will have
opportunities to show their products
to advantage
Il am glad to learn from Rem Fl.
Rice. secretary-manager of the Or
ganization, that such general inter-
est is manifested throughout the
northwest and other parts of the
country and Judging by reports from
the apple districts in the Inland En-
pire there is every reason to believe
that the show will be a big success"

TELLS AWFUL STORY
To The OFFICERS
Declares That Her Conscience Hurts
Her and That She Wants to Die
Ate Glass and Other Thngs.-Texas
Officers Are SkeptieaI.

Houston, Tex, February ga spe-
cial to the Chronicle from New Or
leans says:
Mrs. Alice Thompson, pretty, blue
eyed little woman of %, who tried to
drown herself in the river the night af
January 20 last, soon after coming
here from Marshall, Texas, was, re-
leased from the house of detention to-
day. Following an inquiry into her
mental condition, City Alienist Hum
mel pronounced her sane.
When arraigned in court the day at
ter her suicidal attempt, Mrs. Thomp-
son told remarkable story. She said
that she had strangled her adopted
baby in Fort Worth on January 10,
1907, and she had been driven desper-
ate by tortured conscience.
"The baby persisted in crying" she
said, "and in an outburst Of anger /
held pillow over its head to quiet it.
When the baby stopped crying 1 took
the pillow off and to my horror found
it was dead. Since then, have had
no peace of mind and want to be pun
ished for my offense."
The woman still adheres to this
statement but the Fort Worth authori-
ties have refused to send for her be-
lieving the declaration to be that o.
an insane person.
The woman says that after moving
to Marshall from Fort Worth she was
divorced from her husband, Louis w.
Thompson, after whom the adopted
child was named. She says she will
go back to Marshall.
While at the house of detention 1t
was learned today, Mrs. Thompson
swallowed a quantity of broken glass
concealed in her bread but she suffer
ed no serious consequences. DR.. Hum
mel expressed the opinion today that
the woman said she strangled the
child in order to find temporary
home here.
Mrs. Thompson says she left her
husband because he was a paralytic.

ODD STATUTES FOR
BROKEN HEARTS
Curious Breach of Promise
Laws of Foreign Lands for
Blighted Affections

England is the best place--from the
plaintiffs point of view-for breach
of promise action All other. countries
seem to regard with grave suspicion
any attempt to recover monetary com
pensation for the loss of a prospective
husband, and unless the plaintiff has a
very strong case indeed 1t is never
worth her while to carry her grief into
the law courts.
In France breach of promise cases
are rare for the simple reason that the
law requires the plaintiff to prove that
she has suffered pecuniary loss. Now
this is not an easy thing to do on the
part of the woman, especially In a coun-
try where a girl without a dot-that is,
a marriage portion-has a poor chance
of finding husband. Holland and AUS
tria have adopted the French system,
and the result has been about the same.
Breach actions are rare, the injured
damsels or their relatives usually TAX
Ing the law into their own hands.
Practical Germany, as might be ex-
pected, has perhaps the best method for
solving the problem. When a young
couple become engaged they have to go
through a public betrothal ceremony
that ought to knock all the shyness out
of them. In the local town hall the
pair declare their affections, willing
ness to marry. ETC., ending by signing
a collection of documents that appar-
emily leave no loophole for escape.
But if either party to the contract
wishes to withdraw another journey is
undertaken to the town hall and an
other collection of documents signed,
witnessed and sealed. Then the au-
thorities determine the question of
compensation-shoul it be claimed. In
this connection it may be said that the
man can, and often does, claim sola-
tium for his wounded feelings. The
usual award is one-fifth of the mar
riage dowry Tt is easy to understand.
when all this is remembered, now 10th
the young people of Germany are to
break their betrothal oaths.
AS the law of Italy offers little or
no protection whatever to Tilted dam
sells and SWANS, it is not surprising
that the stiletto should be the favorite
mode of deciding breach of promise
cases. The Italian law demands that
the person suing for breach shall
produce a written promise to marry
from the defendant; otherwise the ac.
ton can not proceed. This difficulty is
almost insurmountable, and the Italian
judges are seldom troubled to adjudi-
cate between one time lovers.
To bring an action of breach of
promise of marriage against reigning
monarch is an achievement, but it has
been done, and by an English woman.
1t is now Is years since Miss Jenny
Mighell sued the sultan of Johore, and
as there was a doubt whether the
dusky one was actually a reigning
monarch, the case was allowed to come
into court. But the judge quickly dis
posed of the action by ruling it mad
missible for the reason referred to, and
Miss MighelI was nonsuited.
1t is remarkable that one of the two
actions which have brought verdicts OF
10000 each to the plaintiffs should
have had for its defendant the editor
of a matrimonial paper. The second
case was between well known actress
and the eldest SON of an earl.--Tit Bits.

INDIAN WAR CHIEF
STABS 3 PERSONS
Passengers on Train From
Washington Attacked by Mad
Warrior at Cincinnati

CINCINNATI, Feb. 21s-With an ear
splitting warwhoop. an unidentified
Nava 30 Indian war chief ran amuck In
the Union station here today, and be-
fore he could be overpowered he had
fatally stabbed and cut Mrs. Anna
Devord OF Huntington, W. Va, and
Max Meyers of Cincinnati, and seriously
wounded Joseph W. Gordon of Cam
bridge, III.
The Indian, with four Sioux war
chiefs from Kansas, had alighted from
a crowded Chesapeake & Ohio train.
AS the passengers stepped from the
train the Indian. with a warning yell,
drew long dagger and started through
the crowd, sIashing right and left.
Mrs Devord was nearest to the In
dian, walking up the platform with a
child in her arms. Before she could
heed the warning cry raised by pas
sengers, the Indian had buried the dag
ger in her back and then slashed her
across the body and arms.
Disregarding the insensible form of
his victim the Indian next attacked
Meyers AS Meyers fell to the station
platform the Indian ran toward Cor
don.
AS the Indians blade penetrated the
clothing Of the victim and entered the
flesh passengers ana station attaches
who had stood rooted in their tracks
with horror made a concerted rush on
the madman.
Male passengers and station en-
ployes hurled themselves upon the
PROSTATE Indian, who struggled des-
perately. The dagger was knocked from
his hand and he was taken in charge
by the police. On the train the Indian,
who had been to Washington to see
the secretary of the interior, was no.
ticed by passengers TO be brooding and
sullen.
