Chapman first appeared on the Ohio frontier In lXOti. He came lloating down the Ohio river In a canoe, tow ing another, and both boats were load ed with apple seeds from the cider mills of Pennsylvania. His pitnuise was to plant the seeds In the wilder ness so that orchards would he started for the settlers when they arrived (here to make their homes. For the next MO years he went every where up and down the Ohio country, planting seeds, going from one orchard to another, pruning and curing for the young trees lie was a welcome vis itor in the Jog eahins of the settlers for he always carried a Bible and some books from which he would read and preaeli to them before the blazing fireplaces in the evening Johnny practiced his teachings of humility and kindness. He never killed anything for food. He carried a kit of cooking utensils, including a tnitsh pan, which he sometimes wore as a hat Usually he wore a broad-brimmed black hat, hut a coffee sack with arm holes cut In It was bis only coat. White men called him “queer." for he often went barefoot In winter as well as In summer, hut the Indians said, “He has been touched by the Great Spirit.” He went everywhere among them unharmed, for the fuel that Johnny never carried a gnu con vinced the... that t.e was under the special protection of the Manito During the War of 1X12 when 'be British were overrunning the Ohio countrj Johnny Applosecd performed his greatest service for his |.,-o|.i.

New York.—A horse's tail Is privi leged. That was decided In the Tombs court hy Magistrate Corrigan. It cost Mike Huccarelli $10 to learn that about his equine employee. Buccarelli, a driver, was huied into court hy an agent of the Humane so ciety, who accused him of heating his horse. The beating was eatised, he told the court, because the horse with one magnificent swish of the tall had knocked a perfecto out of BaccarelU’a hand. “A tall belongs to a horse," decided the magistrate. “He can switch It when, where and as much as he pleases. That’s what It’s for. Ten dollars or five days in jail.” I Nebraska Civil Rights Bill I Chapter Thirteen of the Revised Statutes ol Nebraska, Civil Rights. Enacted in 1893. Sec. 1.

BAFFLED FOE IN THE FAR EAST Offset German Propaganda and Up held Confidence of the Natives During Critical Period—Treaa ury Restoring Supply. New York.—Silver, like gold, la trickling toward the United Slates. It Is coining to Its best and readiest market in a stream that, of course, Is not comparable to the amount of gold Imported, hut yet in sufficient volume to present unmistakable evidence that nooks and crannies are being searched for himrderl silver, that bank vaults of Europe In Which silver has been col lected for months arc being emptied, 1 and that our own cheat, depleted by war needs, is being refilled to its nor mal brimming level. The silver now coming to tlie United Stutes was most ! ly mined in tills country, or at least exported from here, and cornea back with a service stripe. Used in the War. , Silver was used In Ihe war to off ! set German propaganda in the Far | East. While troop- were holding hack the Germans in their drive on Paris in | the spring of 1918. a Hood of silver offset completely the efforts of the , Germans to stir up trouble in the Far East. Silver dollars. Idle in Ihe vaulta of the United Stales treasury rlepnrt I ment. were melted down into bars and hurried across the Pacific to provide additional cover for paper money, about which the natives of India had lierotne alarmed. The importance of dispelling dis quieting reports in. the Far East about tiie reserves, is indlculed by the lui|Hirtance of silver in the econom ic life of tlie Far East. It is the money of the bazaars of India. It Is tlie coin in which bills are paid and purchasi - made, and is the coin with which tlie native bus been familiar since childhood and the one bullion i in which lie place- implicit confidence. The -ize of this outflow of sliver from the United States in the days when it was considered a necessity to aid in winning tlie war may he judged from the tigui-es of the direc tor of tlie mint. in the six years from mis to l!l2ii. inclusive, imports ol silver into tlie United Stales amounted to $868,933,478, while ex ports totaled $815,806,586, alt excess ! of exports over imports of $444,875, 058.
