THOMAS MARE had reason to know that In
a drawer Of desk in the room in which
Theodore Longman slept there usually reposed
Q roll Of bank notes sufAcient to keep Mares
family in luxury over period Of years. To
Longman this sum represented merely the run
ming funds of a vast household. To Mare this
sum represented escape, fresh start In an
other part Of the world with Adalia, eppor-
tunity for his children. And curiously Stub
bornly, almost insanely in the mind Of Thomas
Mare was the determination that this year
there would be no little frustrated faces around
his Christmas table, no scheming on the part of
Adalia TO cover up heartache.
The Mares were going to have their FIRST real
Christmas and IN his desperation Thomas even
said TO himself the Mares were going to have
their first real Christmas, even If fy-by-
night promoter named Theodore LOngman was
going to be found dead In his bed on Christ

Secretly, cautiously, subtly and with . nnesse
that amazed himself the plans Of Thomas
Mare took shape. So clever these plans that

APPLE CROP
REPORTED GOOD

There was q time when to enjoy
apples one either had to have an
orchard or his own or invade hts
neighbor's.
But the progress " commercial
apple growing and distribution has
changed that condition and N-tion-
al Apple Week is being celebrated
this year from Oct. 81 until Nov. Q.
with the assurance that there Is a
bushel OF apples for every person
man. woman or child In the United
States.
Although the crop for 1880 Is al
most 20. 000. 900 bushels less than
that for 1873 II Is estimated to be
100000 bushels greater than last
years crop-a total OF i46.4zO.0c0
bushels being the estimated yield
for the entire nation.
Practically on~e-fourth OF this
enormous crop Is produced in the
state Of Washington. which actual
ly ships about two-thirds as MANY
apples as all OF the -4ates east or
the Mississippi River combined.
Washington's position ms tie
apple box or the Nation" has been
due to the particularly favorable
conditions OF soil ari climate which
have combined to produce fruit OF
exceptional quality and thus en-
couraged the establishment OF the
orchard industry upon a gigantic
scale.
rrna -~~a ~-----y .-- m
tricts of that state lie just east Of
the Cascade Mountains and center
In the Wenatchee- Okanogan and
Yakima Valleys. While q great
manv varieties Of apples are grown
In these districts. the principal
commercial-production Is confined
TO about a dozen varieties.
or these the first 10 come on the
market in considerable quantities Is
that popular variety, the Jonathan.
and these apples are the ones whicn
will be most plentiful during Ma
tional Apple Week.
Advices from the orchard districts
state that the crop of Washington
Tonathans this year Is one OF the
finest that has been produced In
many seasons. The bright red color
Of these apples makes them attract
i've additions to the Halloween fes-
tivities and their rich. spriteIy
flavor has won them general favor
for eating or cooking.
For a number or years Washing
ton orchardists have packed their
apples for shipment in standard
apple boxes. a convenient package
for family use. Apple are rigidly
graded and carefully sized so that
purchaser can tell exactly how
many apples each box contains.

Aeillo's Murder Leaves Capone Supreme
AS Ruler of ChicagO's Underworld
BY BRUCE CATION
Z Service Writer

CHICAGO. Oct. sl.-The muir
der Of q former italian commits
sion merchant who hungered for
the power, wealth and fame :nat
90 with gang leadership, and went
down into the underworld to &c,
them, today leaves AL Capone, the
legendary bad ma OF the south side
practically the undisputed king oi
Chicago,s underworld
When Joe Aiello crumpled I'd and
breathed his last under a machine
gun barrage, the swarthy Capone
clinched his title to sole leadership
Of gangland. One by ons-and
sometimes. two by two-he ha'
seen his rivals erased. OF all the
'big shots" who tried to get their
cut in Chicago's illegal revenues
without diverting a share into Ca
pone's pockets. not one OF any
prominence remains. Capone's
victory is Just about complies.
Future Is In Doubt
Whether or not 1t is final is an
other question. yet to be answered
Two things are possible. The Chi
cago underworld can settle down ir
Capone's iron grip. with competi-
ton at q minimum and Killings un-
necessary; or there can be a final
desperate flare-up on the part Of
the cace-powerful North Side gang
with a great deal OF f~ree-for-all
shooting and a frantic effort 70
knoca .ut Capone himself.
The first alternative seems more
probable. But whatever happens,
the fact remains that right now
the North Side gang seems TO be
hopeleSsly shattered and leader
less. Capone. over whose round
pate a number of requiemS were
chanted when ne went TO prison in
PHILADELPHIA a couple Of years ago,
has come back" with a bang-with
a good many bangs, in fact. Those
jubilant announcements that he
was through seem to have been a
trifle premature.
Two Foes Dead, One Jailed
During the last few years Ca
PONIES enemies were grouped in
der the leadership of a triumvi-
rate-George Bugs Moran, Jack
Zuta and this Joe Aiello, who used
to conduct a flourishing and law
abiding business in the buying and
selling OF fresh vegetables and who,
seeing the money that was 70 be
made in the underworld, turned
crook and went out to get his. Zuta
and Aiello are now dead and Moran
Is in jail.
The South Side outfit started
cunning for this unholy trio q long
a long time ago. They opened the
attack with gangland's major Of
fensive TO date-the St. Valen-
tines Day massacre, which sounds
like the invention Of some unbal-
anced writer Of dime novels but
which actually happened. A ga
rage that was one of the head
quarters depotS for Moran's whis-
ky trade was invaded one morning
BY a squad Of South Side execu-
TONERS. and the seven men who
were busy in 1t at the moment
were lined up against a wall and
killed with machine guns, while
a startled dog. covering under a
truck. looked ON and survived as
the only witness to the bloody az
fair.
That massacre, sensational as II
vas. was not a success. II had
been aimed at Moran himself, who
vas TO have been present. and who
did indeed pass by the place half
an hour before the trouble started.
