TOBACCO WAREHOUSES
OPEN THEIR DOORS
Auctioneering Of New Crop Of Loose Leaf Has
Begun All Over Virginia and North Carolina
First Offerings Show Good Quality.

Again the eloquence OF tbs auc-
tioneer is being heard In the loose
Leaf tobacco warehouses of Virginia
and North Carolina. Nearly all of the
houses in the two States have thrown
open their doors after the long vaca-
ton, and the work Of auctioning off
the 1910 crop OF tobacco has COM
menced. So far, but few OF the
markets, except IN Eastern Carolina,
are receiving anything more than
primings and very common grades Of
leaf. In the Eastern Carolina houses a
great deal of bright leaf, cutters main
ly, have been and are being sold, and
all reports agree that prices are con-
siderably better for the seller than
they were at the same period of last
year. In the Virginia. markets primings
are selling better than last year. and
more Of them are being received. In
Richmond the auctioneers crawled out
from their hiding on Friday. and each

some of the primings sold as high as
$3.50 per hundred. and from that down
to So. The warehousemen look for
larger receipts this week, and two
days Tuesday md Friday, have been
set apart as. sales days, and from now
on sales may be expected every week.

Referring to my article of last week
on the apple industry in Virginia.
which, by the way, did not pretend
to deal in figures. but merely N gen
eral facts. Walter Whately, the secre-
tary and treasurer OF the Virginia
state horticultural Society, furnishes
me with some very interesting facts
and figures concerning the Industry.
The following are the statistics OF
apple shipments for the year 1909 as
obtained from the books of the rail-
WAYS that carried the Virginia crop
to the markets:
Barrels.
Baltimore and Ohio Railway. 30.723
Cumberland Valley Railway.... 7o,701
Virginian Railway. .......... $50
Southern Railway. Si,5OO
Chesapeake and Ohio hallway. 71.l6S
Norfolk and Western Railway. .114,4l4
Total ACKNOWLEDGMENT. .s75,561
Apples shipped in bulk ifspaoked
at $50 pounds to the barrel... 1858
Grand total $685.
Tho total shipments IN 1908 Wero
363.4O5 barrels.

Mr.. Whately says:
III these two years there was.
5eoughlyS speaking, so per cent. OF
crop; to he exact, AZ per cent. IN 1908
and SO per cent. in 1908. This year
the whole State averages rs per cent,
although many counties (such as AL
bemarle and Augusta. have 90 per
cent Some damage was done by late
frosts In portions OF the Valley, re-
ducing the average as stated above.
On the basis OF the 1909 crop the

barrels of all grades. Taking the aver
age price tor No. l aud No. 2, and
culls at the very conservative esti-
mate of SO per barrel all around. the
fruit growers of Virginia should make
this year $1,l3S,sS2 from winter apples
alone. 1t Is impossible to estimate
ut this time the amount and value Of
summer and fall apples and peaches
shipped. but 1t Is very considerable.
as from Crozet alone several carloads
OF summer and TALL apples have been
shipped also in August thirty four
solid carloads of peaches and soma
amount realized for the August
peaches at Crozet alone was abou.
$4,000. The late peaches are not
yet ready to ship. and Will amount to
nearly as many as have already been
shipped.
"rhe figures given above are abso-
lutely correct, but do not include fruit,
apples, peaches. ETC., kept for home
and local use, or hauled to the cities
IN the State by wagons. nor do they
include those apples used for cider.
Probably these would make the total
apple crop in each year named at
least half as much more IL converted
into barrels. The apple crop Of this
country and Canada Is considerably
less than last year. While in Virginia
It is much larger Prices should no,
as high. or higher, than last year"

and the truth is that Police Officer
Hanapi was sitting on his doorstep
with baby when Waiwaiole came
along and went into the house. Ha.
napi did not go inside. and heard
nothing of the shooting till Waiwa-
iOle had left the room and gone to
another house. The women then
told IIanapi that Waiwaiole had said
that he had killed his wife. The

As soon as news OF the shooting

Parrish and Abreu started OFF on the

seen how his wife fares, charge

BIDS OPENED FOR BRIDGE MATERIALS
The New Florence Bridge Got Fine
 Start Yesterday.

Territorial Treasurer F. F. Kirkland yesterday received s5,OO0 from the board of supervisors of Pinal county. its contribution to the fund for con structing a bridge over the Gila river at Florence. on the territorial road.
 Also on the floor above the treasur- CTS office in the capitol building. Ter ritorial Engineer J. E. Girand and his assistants were busy yesterday open ing bids for the furnishing of ma terial for the construction of the bridge and tabulating the facts therein set forth. In all there were eighteen diff ferent bidders on the various materials including lumber. cement. steel and machinery. some bidders submitted figures on all the materials advertised for, while some only bid on one or two materials. Most Of them, however, bid on five or six different items. The bids and the items were so numerous that the facts could not be tabulated yesterday so q comparison could be drawn giving an idea of who the low cst bidders are MT. Girand, however, SIid he was delighted with the bids taken as d whole for he feels certain they demonstrate that the territory will get d better bridge for the same money than if the work of construction were let hy contract. The bids submitted yes terday on materials were below the estimated cost of them by the terri toral engineer. while the bids opened some time ago in pursuance Of form er advertisement. gave the cost of ma terialS al about loo per cent higher than the engineer had estimated. For instance. cement was estimated at SJ.35 Der barrel I Q. b.

ANCIENT SURGERY CRUDE.

In describing some curiosities Of medical and surgical practice. Dr. POmeranZ says:
 About thirty-four years ago pr. Prunieres made some curious discov- cries in Baumnes- -Chaudes caves immense prehistoric burial grounds situated in the valley of the Torn. part of the district of LoZere. France. He found a few hundred skeletons which revealed, upon examination. healed fractures trephined skulls and in some instances the weapon which caused the wound and the death of the individual. Dr. PruniereS a year later in an ad- miral report to the French AnthrOpo- logical society. in session then at Lyons. described his findings :n detail. He presented from his collection one of the parietal bones of a human skull with a trepanned area into which a disk of bone, thicker and darker than the parietal itself. had been fashioned. Similar discoveries were made in Copi- apo. Chile, and Madisonville. Ohio. Up to 1888 over 200 of these perforated crania or poratiOns thereof were col lected by Prunieres. Broca, NJ. de Baye
 
 al Journal.
 "'Fhe trephining in most cases was evidently performed post -mortem, but in others the anti-mOrtem operation did not appear to have had any fatal effect The edges of the trepanned area showed evidences of having healed during the life of the individual Ire banning was probably performed by boring a number of holes circularly, and then chiseling away the bone by means of sharp pointed flint instru- ments. Every part of the skull. even the frontal bone, has been found tre banned.
 Various theories have been ad vanced to account for the practice The suggestion has been made that it was performed in honor of some deity as a religious rite. Broea gives it as his supposition that in most cases the operation was performed on epilep- ties. the insane and those suffering from chronic headaches. A hole was scraped in the patients skull to per init the supported etfological demon to escape The disk of the bone ex- cised was used as an. amulet.
 Self -mutilation in mourning for relatives is carried to a greater ex treme in the New Hebrides. If a child is sick the parents cut off the last phalanX as an offering to the gods. For this reason, says Wood, there is hardly person in Tonga who has not lost a considerable portion of the little finger of one or both hands. The op- eration is crudely performed The finger is placed upon a flat block of wood or stone and the edges of knife or ax placed on it. A terrible blow with a mallet is given. The bleeding stump is held over a fire. the intense heat of which acts as a haemostatic. The Tongas, strange as it may seem. do not dread the operation. In severe
