CRIME AND SOCIETY.

Between society ana the criminals.
or social rebels. there is an eternal
war Nor is It modified IN the least
by the conviction OF the sentimental
lists that criminals are manufactured
and not self-willed. nor BY the con-
tenuon that the rebels Of one gener-
alton are sometimes the saints Of the
next.
The fact remains that society Is
bound to protect itself the alternative
being anarchy Since criminals per
petuaily assall society. 1t is compelled
to protect itself against them, lust as
a nation is compelled ia defend itself
against It's ussaiisnts The impera-

APPLE CROP OF
PEC0S VALLEY IS
BADLY DAMAGED
Cold Wave Causes Loss Of
Quarter of a Million Dollars.
Yield of Fruit viii Be Re-
duCed at Least 90 per Cent

Roswell. \. NJ, April S.-For the
first time in five years and the third
time in seventeen years, the Pecos
valley apple crop was severely dam
aged by a cold wave last night. The
loss is estimated at $4,000. at least
half of the crop being wiped out.
A cold northeast wind started at Z
o'clock and ran the temperature down
10 freezing by midnight. Tempera-
lures as low at 20 were recorded in
spots and &c was common. Because
of the length OF the freeze. the low
temperatures and the high wind,
smudging in most instances did not
warm the atmosphere enough to save
the fruit.
The normal apple crop Of the val
ley is $4,000 boxes and growers say
this output will be reduced at least
SO per cent as a result of last nights

Children Hold Pet
Stock Show Out
At Elmwood Park

Mig, a curly-haired black dog, was
the hero at a pet show held yester-
day afternoon in Elmwood park. All
of the pets viewed this canine visitor
with envious glances. Mig was
brought by Lloyd Russell, son of Mr..
and Mrs. J. w. Russell of 4Sl7 Pop
pleton avenue. At 3 a. M, May IL,
1914, this dog awakened the Russell
family when the home was burning.
Mr.. Russell was out of the city and
Mrs. Russell barely had time to res
cue her children. She said she owed
her life to the dog. Attendants at
the pet show made much over Mig,
who took these attentions with seem
ing canine grace, wagging his tail
good-naturedly.
Master Russell also took his FIVE
white rabbits and two baby squirrels
to the show.
Joseph Murphy pointed with pride
to his bantam chickens and white rab-
bit. -
Robert Garman, 48l6 Pierce street,
exhibited Queenie, a bulldog, which
took delight in going down the big

tee that the ball committee is already
consulting the roster Of members for
lists of names Of those eligible for
the reception committee, maids of
honor, waiting. and many
others. He asked them to put it up
strong to prospective members that

on the roster, there is no chance that
they or any of their families will ap-
pear on these committee lists in the
official ball program.
