The story of Johnny Appleseed.

VOAAAS S2ppAGSCCNs
Columbia Dispatch: BY many "John-
ny Appleseed" is regarded as a myth.
The pioneer work in Ohio thai is at
tributed to him seems such a vagary
that to them 1t is improbable that any
rational person could ave engaged in
1t. Not so. Such a nan lived, and
through a long life, established nurser-
les of apple trees in the wilds of Ohio,
and cared for them in a manner.
His real name was John Chapman.
He was born at or near Springfield,
Wayne. Ind, May II, 1847. The grave
could not be identified now, for it was
not marked. So much Is known def
nltely of him. Tradition has it that an
to his life Of celibacy and virtual herm-
itage. He was Of a deep religious ma
ture and felt that he had a mission. 1t
was to provide nurseries from which
the pioneers Of the Ohio country could
stock their farms when they came.
It was not wholly a labor Of love,
however, for he did accept considera-
ton for trees sometimes, though he
gave most OF them away. The little
that he received was sufficient to sup
port him, living as he did in the most
primitive fashion. He rarely wore
shoes, A coffee sack with openings cut
when travelling a mush-pot inverted
over his head, served for a hat, He
was a Swedenborgian, and while he
was no o~btrusive with his religious
views, did missionary work as. occasion
presented itself. He was a strict vege-
tartan, n killed nothing.
In all wanderings through the Indian
kind n the Indians regarding him as
a sort OF medicine man, never molested
him. He first visited Ohio about 1900,
and for some time lived in Richland
county. In recognition of this fact a
monument to him has been erected in
the public park in Mansfield, dedicated
with formal exercises Nov. 8, 1900.
Weak from advancing years, Chap
man had set out on a t~wenty-mile walk
to protect a nursery into which cattle
were reported to have broken, and on
the way fell Ill at the house of William
Worth, near Fort Wayne. Pneumonia
developed, n he died in Worth's
house.

Hurled 80 Feet by Automobile, Comes
Back to Fight the Driver.
New York World: Here is a bird
Of a bull that an automobile going ff-
ty miles an hour cant lick.
The only thing that can even scare
this bull-he belongs to John Heaton
Of West Orange, N. J.-is a bolt Of
lightning. When that shot neal him
yesterday the bull jumped the fence in
front Of a. motor car driven by Edwin
Hastings Of Hanover. n. J.. Mr.. Hast
ings says he was going fifty miles an
hour, for his little children were with
him n he was streaking for home.
Across the road is an embankment.
The auto flung the bull into the air
and dropped him down thirty feet of
slope. The car nearly followed, but
skidded against a tree.
Hastings descended to locate the
corpse. But not that bull! Out Of a
tangle Of ~shrubbery he charged at
Hastings who found a tree. The bull
dropped back and came on again. This
time Hastings made the top of a well
curb and was out Of reach.
From there he yelled to his children,
who got several men with p~itchforks,
who managed to hold the bull at bay
until Hastings escaped to the road.
About an hour later the bull swag-
gered up the enbankment and onto the
road, then through the gate, back to
his herd.

many years ago moved over to Lon
don, worth about $4,000, 900 left by
his fathers and grandfathers, has be-

him that a far reaching family row
has resulted. Mrs. Astor was one of

she believed in the United States like
most Virginians. When she came
back several months ago she made
that very plain. She said she was
going to bring up her young son as an
American.
