SAID TO BE INSANE.
Girl Was Returned By Germany to
America without Any Elk
PLANTATION.

Miss Emma J. Hays, school teacher
of Philadelphia, was brought back to
this country Saturday from Germany
by order of the imperial government,
at whose instance she was detained
seven weeks in an insane asylum at
Frankfort. She appeared to be in full
possession of her faculties and the i'm
migration authorities passed her in
after she had proved her American cit
izenship.
Considerable mystery surrounds the
case. Miss Hays volunteered no in
formation why she had been confined
and the Hamburg American line, which
brought her back, had no facts beyond
orders to return her. 1t attempted to
hold her trunk as surety for her
passage, but the federal authorities or
dered it turned over to her and it was
surrendered. Heavens knows why,
said the girl, when asked for an ex-
PLANTATION.

quality l will say that it is decidedly
better than in 1909. New England,
New York and Ohio all promise a much
better quality than a year ago, as does
all the southern group, while the Pa
cific group promises exceptionally good
quality for the entire group, which
will be the heaviest ever harvested.
"The middle west or Ben Davis
group ranges from poor to good quail
ity, with a considerable portion of it
of only fair quality. Illinois, Ne
braska and Iowa show considerable de-
crease, while Arkansas, Oklahoma, Kan
sas and Indiana have substantial in
creases.
''The central group, which is the
largest producing group, shows in
creases in Ohio, Delaware and New
Jersey over last year; Pennsylvania,
Michigan and Wisconsin show consid-
cradle decline, with the increases not
being sufficient to offset the shortage,
and this group shows a decline from
last year of to 10 per cent.
'The New England group shows an
increase in the entire section, except
the uRimportant state of Rhode Island,
and for the whole group the entire crop
this year promises to be above 40 per
cent in excess of last year.
Gin the southern group, the import
ant state of Virginia shows a decided
increase over last year, with consider
able increase in West Virginia and Ken
lucky, Maryland alone showing a de.
crease in this group. This group shows
an increase of fully so per cent over
year ago.

Gently, but very heavy drop followed

prospects are for a light crop, poor

Mr.. Rothwell closes his report witt
these words:
eff present prospects are maintained
until harvest time our country will
have plenty of apples, all of better
than average quality, which should
have good outlet at moderate prices
to the consuming public
Editor: This report is much mor'
optimistic than that of the American
Apple Growers congress, recently pub
lished. True, their estimates are base,
on an average crop while Mr.. Rothwel
bases his on last years crop. How
ever, this alone can not explain sucl
a wide difference as exists between tn,
two estimates. Perhaps the former
representing the views of growers, wa
inclined to be somewhat bearish an'
the latter may have been influences
somewhat by opposite sentiments.

WIRELESS FROM AERoPLANE.
Message Sent to Earth From 500
Feet in Air.


Feet in Air.
Buzz, buzz, buzz, zizz, spoke the small
voice of the coherer into the ear of
the wireless operator on the roof of
the grandstand at Sheepshead Bay race
track, New York, Saturday afternoon.
A mile away and 500 feet up, Aviator
McCurdy was speck against the sky.
The operator began to piece into sense
the suffering of the wireless. This
is what he read:
"Horton; Another chapter in aerial
achievement is recorded in the sending
of a wireless message from an aero
plane.
"McCURDY."
Thus Aug. 81, 1910, the first wireless
message was sent from an aviator in
flight to a receiving station on earth.
J. D. A. McCurdy, a pupil of Glenn
H. Curtiss, was both aviator and sender
and Harry NJ. Horton, acting under the
supervision of Major Samuel Reber of
the United States signal corps, was the
receiving operator. McCurdy had at
tached key to his steering wheel and
the antennae of his sending apparatus
depended below him from the chassis of
his biplane.
