The Apple Of Eden.

From time immemorial the apple
has been blamed for being the cause
Of mans downfall in the garden Of
Eden. We have even gone so far as
to call our Adams apple by that name
in memory of the incident.
AS a matter of fact, the word apple
does not appear in that part Of Gene
sis treating with the Garden Of, Eden,
the fruit Of the tree" being the words
always used. The fallacy arose from
the fact that the word apple has In
many languages the general meaning
Of fruit, and that before an English
translation of the Bible was permitted
the story was incorrectly spread by
ignorant churchmen. and thus took
root too. deeply to be eradicated.

bile to take Brindell from the door
of the Tombs through the city and up
the Hudson to Ossiuing. Accompany
ing him were Under Sheriff Thomas
r. Burke and Brindell's counsel, }. J.

As Brindell came out OF the front
door OF the Tombs little after
noon, ten or fifteen men from the
Building Trades Council headquarters
who were at all times aggrcssively
asserting themselves about the Grim
inal Courts Building during his trial
gathered about the lower steps.
When newspaper photographers
and movie camera men began taking
PICTURES these men vented on the
photographers their wrath over the
fate OF their chief They smashed
cameras and iostled the phOtogru-
piers. Policemen and others inter
tered to aid The photographers.
One underszed man with a camera
assured a man and woman who got
between him and the friends OF Brin-
dell that he was all right and had
his picture all safe"
He was bowled over and an effort
was made to take his camera away
from him or stamp IT to pieces. The
police saved the man and the came ra,
