ARTIFICIAL WINTER FOR
YOUNG APPLE TREES
Weather So WarR They Threaten to
Bloom Too Early.

Washington, Jan. 24.-William F.
Thomas, of this city, owns an orchard
OF 5000 young apple trees in Mary
land. The unseasonably warm weather
has coaxed out the buds and there Is
danger of blooming. In case of FROST
the trees would be injured.
Mr.. Thomas consulted experts of the
department of Agriculture, and on
their advice today shipped 100 tons Of
ice to the orchard. The ice will be
broken up and applied to the roots of
the trees in the hope of chilling them,
thus preventing the sap from rising
and thereby keeping them from bloom
ing.

ATLANTA EVEN HAS
AN HONEST MAN
Where, oh, Where is Poor, Old
DiOgeneS!

Atlanta, Jan. 24.-The search of Do
genes has ended! Not in classic Ath-
ems, but in modern Atlanta, his quest
has closed. Not among kings has it
terminated, but among cabbages!
That modest work of Cod" an hon
est man, has been found in this city
probably the only honest man in AT
lanta, according to the Diogenes form
ula, indeed, quite possibly. the only
honest man in the world.
Now this one honest man in Allan
ia is-a preacher? No. Guess again.
A lawyer, doctor, reformer? All
wrong. It's a grocery mana gree n
grocery man at that! The one man CT

to find because the man was born sew.
eral thousand years too late. or Do
genes too soon, sells cabbages.
Here, then, is the plain unvarnished,
unadorned tale of how he has won
immortality:
Two girl friends of Atlanta, both
recent brides, both knowing more
about auction bridge than they do
| about buying beefsteak, yet both put
ting up a noble bluff at intelligent
housekeeping, entered the green gro
GERS store together.
They wanted some cabbages. The
only thing they knew about cabbages
was the refrain of Hattie Williams
naughty little song, but it was some
thing to go by, so they picked out
some mice green cabbages, ira la la
ID" and then marched over to the
grape fruit
While they were in whispered con-
sultation over the grape fruit, the
green grocer who knew his custom
ers, kindly suggested.
Madame. if you will let me helm
you, l will be glad to pick out some
good ones"
No" promptly replied the first of
the young matrons, her pretty nose
tilted in the air as if to indicate that
she knew all about the wiles of gro
Gerry men and was not to be taken in
Then she picked out three herself
The grocer looked at the three
craps fruit she handed him to wrap
up, then looked at her, and blurted our
with blunt honesty:
Madame, you have picked out what
/ believe to be the only three rotten
grape fruit in this whole store. Now
If you will pardon and permit, l will
help you select some good ones"
The young housekeepers now send
in their orders over the telephone.

DEATH CLAIMED GOOD CITIZEN

The Reaper of Death has been IN

of angina pectoris. AT an early hour

health. He was about to take a dose
of medicine when he fell l~ifeless to
the floor. He was aged sc years.
Mr.. Andrews came to Dakota ter

the Indian outbreak there in 1851,
when he removed to Sioux City,
where he established himself in bust.

THE DECLINES

Huron Toronto: In . lengthy let
ter to the registration committee APP
pointed by the Sioux Falls meeting,
Governor Byne declines to proclaim
q holiday for registration purposes,
thus making q record Of non-compli-
ance with q request by the commit
tee.
This action is not disappointing,
the governor, notwithstanding his
perfunctory expression of subseryi-
ency to the measure, having given the
constituency reason to believe that he
would not depart from the beaten
path to effect the enforcement of the
primary law.
He offers as a reason for denying
the request of the committee that
every day up to the last day of Octo-
Der is a registration day he can
see no reason for specifying a special
day for the performance of a privi-
lege.
So too there are many days like ar
Dor day ang mothers day that + a
part of the every day existence of
the populace. Yet there are many
days of that character that are spec
ialized by state executives, who give
them prominence by proclamations
that call the attention of the public
to them.
One a only conclude that opposi-
ton to the primary law is behind the
refusal of the governor to declare a
special day for registration, the ad.
ministrative forces having made
themselves conspicuous in many ways
in impeding it's operation.
Antagonism to the registration fea.
Iture of the enactment has been, and
is, SO pronounced that it begins to
assume the proportions of a carefully
matnred plan. of the bull moose ele-
ment to avoid an expression of politi.
cal faith, the progressives not being
permitted to register under their
party title.
One of the subordinates of the gov
ernor, the attorney general. hus but

administration opposition to the pri-
mary law by rendering an erroneous
opinion that, declares that township
clerks cannot be paid for any labor
they may perform in connection with

mary.
