Dr. W. L. Fleming dropped into Tin
BEE office yesterday with a strange gold
coin , which he cannot exactly place as to
age and country. Some who have looked
at it judge ic to be a Greek coin of fully
two thousand vears before Christ. It con
tains about three dollars of virgin gold ,
and is B'.amped out quite rudely , and .
bears many hieroglyphics. Ho has beeti
offered ? 50 for the coin , but prefers to
hold it. The doctor is quite an enthusiast

\ PIERSONS TURNED LOOSE.
Another Chapter In the Long Drawn
"out nobbtry Case ,
The examination of John Pionon
hold befoio Justice Frainey was con
eluded yesterday afternoon. Two day
were taken last week in hearing ovi
clenco on the p rt of the state to show
that Piersons was the ono who an
( nulled and robbed Mrs. llubbnrd
The state then rested and John Lindt
as attorney / the defendant , made
motion lo dismiss , which was arguoi
nt length , Col. D.uly appearing for tin
late. Yesterday morning the latto ;
asked permission to introduce the ovi
donee , and was allowed to do so , am
thu arguments on the motion to dis
miss was resumed. Justice Frninoy
decided it by discharging the piisonor.
Mr. liubb.ird , after ttio conclusion
of the case , gave Pleisons duo wnrn
ing to keep out of his way ; ns ho was
morally certain that ho was the ono
who assaulted his wife , though tlio
evidence just now was lacking , lie
should follow him an long as they
both should live , and would see to it
thnt noonor or later ho had his ju t
deserts , The prisoner's attorney , in
tunf , informed Mr. llubbord that if
ho commenced liny more cases against
Piersons ho should begin ngnmst
llubbnrd. The latter told him to go
nhend , as he should surely commence
further proceedings , and with this
understanding the interested parties
separated.
Piorsons has run quito a gauntlet. :
Ho first squealed on Btiodderlj * ns the
guilty party. Snftdderly 'wast ' tried
nnd ncquittcd. Piereous was then
nirented for perjury , was tried and .
acquitted. Then Piuraons wnsnrrestcd
for committing the robbery himself
and haa now born acquitted of that.
From whnt evidence has bison drawn
out by thcHo examinations , it is ap
parent that if the whole matter had
been put in the hands of n first claia
detective and kept there until the
cnse could have boon worked up , tlio
guilty parties would have been safely
caged before thin. As it is there have
been oo many fingers in the pie , nnd
It has been half-baked nnd unrmud
jver so many times that it in doubt-
'ul if ever the real f.vcts will bo got
int. The assault wnsn most cowardly
) iie , and it is to bo regretted that
aaticu is being thwarted

ENFORCING THE ORDINANCES
Plenty of Chances For the City Of
ficials to Show Whether They
Mean Business.
The new city government started in
with an apparent determination lo
hnvo the ordinances of the city re-
nurrcctcd nnd enforced. Notice has
been given to hnvo the alleys cleaned
up , the ordinance forbidding the ex
press wngons standing on Broadway
has bcon revived , resolutions have
boon passed ordering the enforcement
of the 11 o'clock ordinance , and that
forbidding the saloons being opened
Sunday. The police officers have re
ported n Inrgo number of names as
violators of both requirements , and
not ono has been prosecuted. The
council will either have to take back
water , or else make its oxcculivo pow
er come lo time. Wnr has been de
clared by them , and it ia too lately to
hoist the white flag.
Several places wcro reported by
the ofllcera yesterday ns being open
on Sundny. They were the Oontrnl
saloon,1'iit Irtcy's , Leo Mitchell's , and
Schrobo's.
The council also passed a resolution
rjrderitig the city marshal to lilo in
formation against nil saloons not hnv
ing paid the licences in mlvanco by
Saturday night. Many of the no-
linqupntB complied , but yesterday
Horning there were several who had
iot. Some of these dropped in during
S
ing Hie forenoon and paid up , but |
itill there were about il clozun who , .
lid not. Yesterday afternoon Vm6
.nformation was filed against n woman , o
Martha Marx , for not having n li-
ii
: onse. Their choice of n woman ns
iih
; ho first victim does not show much h
iluck , but it may lead on to the com-
nencing of notions against some of n
; ho men. J
The cily marshal has discovered
, ! mt 'any rnlooti within two miles of [
, ho city limits , is required to pay the
egular license , nnd this will cause
tovcral to bo taxed , who hnvo
icrotoforo been lot go free. It will
)0 n surprise party to some of thcso
urnlists when the marshal drops in
ipou them with his bill.

Uniformity In Tree Planting1.
Many farmer * delay setting out
ruit trees till they hnvo n picco of Ni
round well prepared for nn orchnid NiJ
nd the means to purchase a vnrioty J (
if npplo , pear , nnd cherry trees , W
'hoy desire for some reason to have WB"
"
B"
latgo number of trees mature at
JV1
nco , and to commence to produce tli
ruit at the same titnp. They have tliSi
ittlu regard , for method in planting Sib (
nnual crops , but they are very anx-
' O
3us to plant fruit trees with' mathe Obe
matical precision. They are careless beTi
bout the arrangement of other things
a the field and garden , but they
hink that fruit trees must stand like
les of soldiers on dress parade ,
farmers whoso fences are crooked ,
nd who never plow straight
have straight ot
urrows or rows Lt
orn or potatoes , will no at great LtWi
tains to set fruit trees on exact lines , col
'hoy are at no pains to have the ends LI
f a plowed field straight , but they PI
rill bo very particular insetting fruit Lc
roes so that they will form rows in 1'e
acli direction. The desire for uni-
armity , and the lackpf means to no- 1
omplish it , prevent many farmers 1i
rom having fruit for many years after
0 might have it. An orchard of i J j
rtco set in Uniform lines , and of etc :
ho samo.ago and size , presents a fine fl'
ppoarance , and is more easily tended (01 )
linn ono where less order is preserved pM
i the time and order of planting.
Jut persons who move upon n now '
ilaco should lose no time in taking ill
ho proper course to sccilro a supply
f fruit , They should sot out nome
roes that come into bearing early as sal
eon as pomblo. If the land is not
iiclosod or broken where they would
iko to locate the orchard , they should '
ilant trees in places where the ground 111
1 in order , and where protection can
ie n Horded.
Fruit trees do not suffer for want r
if companioniship. Solitary trees or-
iinarily live and thrive as well as
hose that are near others , Trees
nay afford mutual protection , but it
s often the case that they cause mu-
ual injury by standing quito close to-
other. Their roots' often spread so
hat they occupy ground in common ] If. u
heir branches shade each other , and en
nsects find it easy to pass from tree
roe. A fruit tree once established in enI
solitary position is almost certain to I [
lecomo strong nnd hardy. Its i
tranches will bo near the
round and they will bo firmly I [ 1
inited to the trunk. A fruit tree
landing by itself is generally very
iroductivo. Its fruit ripens well bo-
auso it has the full benefit of the
uu'u rays , The tree becomes largo
or the reason that its roots can spread f
u all directions and to a long distance'
nd not como in contact with others , i
.t is likely to attain u great ago on l
ccount ot the hardino'H it acquires ,
[ ho pear and npplo trees that are re
torted as producing remarkably largo
reps generally stand by themselves
not in somewhat exposed situations ,
ilanyof the oldestand most productive
ruit trees in the eastern states were
ilantcd outside o ( orchards. Some-
imos they wore planted beside huge '
lowldora or by the aide of ravin * * llv
rhero the plow could not be worked , uc ;
"ho eides of streams and ravines are
ivorablo places for planting fruit I
roes. A tree standing by itself is II
uiio certain to receive attention. It
i readily teen and injuries to it are I 1
oticed , When a former has but u
BW trees , nnd id in need of fruit , ho
likely to take proper care of them. 1
Ie will not allow them to become in-
, by iiuects.
Unless an orchard is designed for
ommercial purposes , there is no
pedal advantage in setting out all thu Jl
rocs nt once. It is bettor in many
cancels lo plant the trees at different
ortods. If all thu trees in an orchard 41
ro planted at the same time they will
oramenpj tojbt&r ntiboiit" the same DC
eriod and exhibit limrksVof decay
Homo years Inter. If ft few are planted
each year , there will bo a succession
of trees coming into hrarinjr , pro
ducing largo crops nnd declining in
productiveness during the period of
n ordinary lifetime. This ia
exactly what is wanted in an
oichard designed to supply fruit
for n family. If nn orchard is deigned -
ignod to contain 141 trees , it would
bo an excellent plan to plant twelve
trcefl this season and each year or each
second year thereafter to plant twelve
more. The trees planted each season
would constitute n row , and the or
chard , when completed , would bo in
the form of a square. By commenc
ing with n few trees a farmer would
gradually become accustomed to the
euro of them In the weal it ii ncccn-
sity to renew fruit trees quito often.
This is especially true of the cherry
nnd pear and apple trrcs that com-
niotico to bear early. The same treen
cannot bo relied upon to product ) fruit
for manyyeara in succession. Thpro
h another strong argument for setting
uiit trees nt different times. A con-
ulant improvement is going on in nil
kinds of fruit. A farmer may set out
the best varieties known this year ,
but in n few years there will bo voriu-
Jes vastly superior to thum in quality
} f fruit as well as productiveness. By
planting u few trees nt stated inter-
i'als ono can eccuro nil tlio best vane-
its known at the time of setting , and J
n that wny keep up with the progress t
if improvement. The plan of setting
tut nn orchard in the way suggested
lommonds itself to persons of small
cana.
