Connecticut Apples.
tNorwich Bulletin.)

That there are prospects of large apple crop this year is of intei est to all lovers and raisers of th fruit wherever they may be located but coupled with the statement thd the consumption of apples at the pred ent time per capita is no where ned as great as 1t was several years agd 1t imposes greater task upon th| marketing of the crop.
 In this task New England has a great concern as any other sectiol for it is bound to enjoy the gift u nature .n accordance with the rest Q the country. New England and Con necticut can and does raise as de licious and attractive apples as th west, but it has been the experience in years past that a Cons .dere h'e Dor ton of the crop has been made 1itfl use of, being allowed to remain ol the trees or go to waste for lack Q a market. 38
 This Is a problem which needs C be strongly attacked by the combine. efforts of producer and consumel both for the purpose of stimulatinl greater interest in such culture ir the east and for the economic bene fit which Is obtainable thereby. Dis, tribution is what is demanded for thu development of apple growing and thu increase in the consumption of thu fruit, which is of much food value and until the producers of the eas1 make their apples as available al those of the west, there is bound td be the deplorabie waste. Instead oI being allowed to rot on the trees suclj Connecticut fruit should oe the hrs1 for Connecticut consumption.

OLD-T|Mf BOATING
 ON MISSISSIPPI
Freight Rates on One Trip Almost
 Paid For Craft.

MGregor, Ia.. Aug. 29.-The intro- duction of the new style of barge on the Mississippi river recalls ante railroad days on the upper Missis- sippi, when steamboats were the only public carriers and the sole arbitra- tors of transportation rates for both freight and passengers. Tho steam boat companies in those days charged what they pleased, and the public paid it, the owners of the boats ,pilhps up fortunes. tIA .St m
 In his recollections of stealnboat plotting from 1854 to 1863 George By ron Merrick in his book "Old Times on the Upper Mississippi" gives some interesting data relative to early day freight and passenger traffic. .
 Freight Rates On River.
 Freight rates on the river" he says, Iran from 25 cents a hundred from Galena to St. Paul. No pack age was carried. however small or however short distance, for less than 25 cents. Upstream rates for passenger were: 30 miles or under. 6 cents a mile: 90 to 60 miles. cents a mile; over 50 miles, cents a mile. From Prairie du Chien to St. Paul, 255 miles. the cabin passage was $10; deck passage, $5.
 Boats often earned enough in one season to pay for themselves. The Fanny Harris of the cid Minnesota Packet company lowed one barge all the time-two most of the time--and both boat and barges were loaded to the water lines both ways nearly every trip. Instead of 150 passengers, she often carried 300, sleeping ttem on the cabin floor, three deep, at stateroom rates"
 Passenger Rates High.
 An item in one of the St. Paul pa pers of the time states that the Ex- celsior arrived from St. Louis Nov. 20, 1852, with 250 cabin passengers, 1S0 deck passengers and 30 tons of freight. For freight and passengers she received at the rates then in vogue about $13.20O. The Excelsior cost not to exceed $20.000, probably not over $16,O0O. Another item, also from a St. Paul paper, states that the Lady Franklin arrived May 8, 1855, with 500 passengers. She would accommo- date 150 cabin passengers ordinarily.

DESCRIBES SINKING OF GERMAN LINER
Kaiser Wilhelm Der Crosse Ceased
 Firing When She Caught Fire.

London, Aug. 29, 2:3O D. m.-The Evening News today publish a des- patch from Las Palmas, Canary Islands, giving an account of the sink ing of the North German Lloyd trans Atlantic liner Kaiser Wilhelm Der Crosse off the coast of Africa by the British cruiser High Flyer, which was reported last Thursday.
 Lieut.. Deane, a British army officer, who was taken prisoner by the Kaiser Wilhelm Der Crosse from the British steamer Galician on the high seas is the authority of the Las Palmas cor respondent and in an interview he gives a graphic account of how the great liner was destroyed.
 Death Rather Than Surrender.
 Lieut.. Deane had been sent over Co the collier Arucai, from which the liner was coaling. When 1t was seen that the Kaiser Wilhelm was doomed the German captain sent his sword, his despatch box and a letter to hls wife to the collier his secretary be- ing his messenger. Previous to doing this the captain of the liner had an- nounced that he would himself blow up his command rather than sur render.
 When the High Flyer opened fire on the liner, Lieut.. Deane continues. the collier was still fastened to her dock by hawsers and owing to some delay certain prisoners on board the liner did not get a chance to leave the ship. The Kaiser Wilhelm was bow on to the High Flyer and the British cruiser had some difficulty in finding her mark.
 Shots Fall Short.
 She maneuvered to get broadside on, and the ensuing cannonade lasted for forty minutes. All the shots from the Kaiser Wilhelm appeared to be falling short. From the collier it was seen that she had been hit three times and on catching fire she ceased replying to the shots of the British cruiser.
 When the liner had been silenced the High Flyer also stopped fire. By this time the Arucai, which had sep arated from the liner. had gotten too far away to perceive anything more than she was still burning.
 The Germans kept on board the Kaiser Wilhelm only her officers. her gun crews and a few engineers. The remainder of her men were trans ferred to the collier.

and those of other parts of G |. he said, Tor a large proportion of them are a hard working people and have made astonishing commercial and scientific advances within the last twenty or thirty years, and in such a measure that it has been contri- button to civilization and the world is under an obligation to them. But they have allowed themselves to be domianted by tins military clique. One must always bear in mind the dis tinction between the great, intelli- gent, hard working cultured body of the German people and the military clique, which is too readily allowed to dominate the councils of the na- tion."

ADRIAT|C STfAhS INTO
 PORT WITR REFUGEES
White Star Liner Crossed Atlantic
 With Al Lights txlInQuShsd.

New York. Aug. 29.--With six inch guns mounted fore and aft, with ey- cry porthole blanketed and all lights extinguished the White Star liner Adriatic crept into port in the dark ness of early morning today. She had aboard 1,762 passengers, nearly all Americans who were in England at the outbreak of hostilities.
 Not for d moment during the long voyage from Liverpool from which the Adriatic cleared on August 20, were the passengers permitted to forget that Europe was at war. By night the steamer travelled without lights; by day her decks were thronged with her officers and san- ors practicing their gun drill for hours. It is said that the vessel will go, with little delay, from here to Hal flax to help carry Canadian volun- teers across the sea.
 French Liner Sighted.
 The Adriatic's batteries consist of four 6-inch rifles, two mounted on the bow and two on the stern. They were placed in position at Liverpool On August 27 the French liner France was sighted and the two vessels ex- changed signals.
 In the Adriatic's first cabin were 472 passengers. Her second cabin had 645 and steerage 645. Ninety per cent. of those in the steerage were Americans.
 Noted Passengers Aboard.
 Sir Courteney Bennett, the British consul general at New York ana Lady Bennett: Wm. c. Breed, who was secretary of the relief committee for Americans in London; J. Borden Hartman and his family; the Rt. Rev. Henry Gabriels, bishop of Og- densburg, and Mrs. Paul Morton were among the passengers.
