Surgeon Tells Graphic Story.

Dr. Ray B. Harris, police surgeon
OF Dayton, Ohio, and one of the chief
workers among the injured immedi-
ately after the cyclone, told a graphic
story of the sufferings Of the hun
dreds who were hurt.

sician. 1T was as grewsome a task
as | ever worked at. Some of the
bodies were twisted into frightful
shapes and some had pieces of
Wreckage-wood and iron-driven
through their bodies. Dozens were
smothered to death, some were
burned, still others were crushed and
beaten to death by the flying timbers.

Some of the taxicab drivers thought
1t was golden opportunity to reap

The doctors wouldn't stand for any
thing like that, and personally
thrashed two drivers who presumed
to haggle."
Another husky young doctor had an
argument with a chauffeur, who de-

DIARY OF FATHER TIME

The ancient Persians looked upon
the education of children as the most
important duty and the most essen
tial part of government. 1t was not
left to the care of fathers and moth
ers, whose blind affection and fond
ness often rendered them incapable
of that Office, but the state took it up.
= Boys were all brought up in COM
mon, after one uniform manner,
where everything was regulated, the
place and length of their exercises,
the times of eating, the quality of the
meat and drink and their different
kinds of punishment. The only food
allowed either the children or the
young men was bread, crosses and
water, for their design was to &C
custom them early to temperance
and sobriety. Besides, they consid-
cred that plain, frugal diet would
strengthen the body and lay such
foundation of health as would enable
them to undergo the hardships of war
to a good old age. Here boys went
to school to learn justice and virtue,
as they do in other places to learn
arts and sciences; and the crime most
severely punished among them was
ingratitude.

MYSTERY IN FINDING OF BODY
OF YOUNG WOMAN

CIiffside, N. J., Sept. GA young
woman's body, headless and legless,
was found on the banks of the Hud-
son River near Clayton's boathouse,
and near it was a blood-soaked pillow
and a torn and bloody sheet. No
scrap of the girls clothing was found.
Physicians declare, from exami1a-
ton of the torso, that the texture
of the skin indicates the girl was
used to fine clothing, sanitary living
and luxury. The arms were not sew
cred and the hands we're shapely and
well manicured.
The body was found by boys play

In the arrest Of five Italians, First
Deputy Supt. of Police Schuettler be-
lieves he has finally solved the muir
der of James Acques, who was slain

five days. The arrest of two others
will complete the case.

Nathan's arms closed
about her, and drew her
closer, and he saw with a
strange sadness at his
heart that there were a few
silver threads in her thick,

the great transformation
that only feminine hands
could give to it.
Nathan talked little as

THIN OUT FRUIT
ON APPLE TREES
Deserving Of as Much Attention
as Keeping Away Injurious
Insect Pests
nRv M R nIIRERrl

(By w. h GIlBEhT.D
The proper care and looking after
fruit trees constitute one Of the best
methods OF ensuring success.
1t might be supposed that this was
stating a truism and, indeed. 1t is do
ing SO: but unfortunately all too
many orchards are neglected, hence
the necessity for on all suitable oc-
casions recurring to the subject.
Now, the thinning Of the fruit on APP
pie trees is a matter which deserves
quite as much attention as the keep
ing them free OF insect pests. and
yet II is very much neglected. 1t is
beyond a doubt that the Intrinsic
value OF apples is often increased by
thinning. the fruit being superior in
size. color and general quality.
The thinning generally improves
the color, and l prefer doing the
work when the fruit has grown to
about / " inches in diameter. When
ever the trees bear well. thinning has
the effect OF increasing the size Of the
fruit, more especially In the case OF
the Balwin.
No exact rule for thinning apples
can be laid down as the requirements
vary with the different trees and even
with the same tree In different sea
sons. The amount OF thinning, how
ever, should be suited to the condi-
ton as shown by the ages and states
OF the tree. and OF course by the dis
tribution of the fruit on the tree. All
wormy and inferior apples should first
be removed Thinning should be
done by hand. as the thinning pro
cess produces better apple It de-
ponds upon the grower himself to
market such better quality to the
best advantage.
