A West Virginia Convict Par
dOned by President Arthur.

West Union Record.
Jerome Dawson, who was convicted
of completely in robbing the United
States mail at Pennsboro in the
spring of 1879 and sentenced to four
years in the Moundsville penitentiary
was pardoned by President Arthur
last Monday. 1t will be remem-
bered that Dawson was in the en-
ploy of his uncle, who was postmas-
ter at Pennsboro, and a plan was ar
ranged between him and two young
men named Boyce and Dixon, to
steal the mail pouch leaving that
place, the first night that money
packages were left in it. The train
taking the mail last passing there
after dark, did not stop at Pennsboro,
but caught the pouch from the crane
placed alongside of the track for
that purpose. On the evening that
the robbery was committed, several
registered packages were in the
pouch, and Dawson informed his
pals'of the fact, placed the pouch in
position as per arrangement, left the
store where the postoffice was kept,
and went home to his uncle's house
in order to prove his whereabouts
on that evening should he be charged
with the robbery; but luck was
against him, as it happened that an
old lady, a member of his uncle's
household, died that evening and in
the excitement incident to her death,
which was sudden and unexpected,
the members of the family were una
BILE when the trial came, to recollect
his being at home that evening. A
couple of postoffice detectives came to
that place and soon became possessed
of a clue which led them TO suspect
Boyce and Dixon of being implicated
in the robbery. After getting the
two young men drund, suffi-
cient information was drawn from
them to Justify their arrest. They
made confession charging Dawson
with being prime mover in the affair,
and testified at Dawsons trial, and
alleged that Dawson carried the mail
pouch a considerable distance and
delivered it to them. The young
men admitted cutting open the pouch
and rihing it of its contents, among
which was 1896 in money. Dawson
says the young men returned home
as soon as their sentence expired, and
obtaining the money from Boyce's
father, boldly exhibited it, saying
that they had worked year each
for that money, and it rightfully be-
longed TO them" Dawson declares
it his intention to make it warm for
about twenty-five or thirty counter
letters operating in different sections
of the State, just as soon as he
can get to Clarksburg and see Gener-
al Golf

A Farmers Opinion About the
Wheat Crop

GEORGETOWN, June 26.-Editor
Netc Dominion:-In answer to your
inquiry IN regard to the wheat, can
only say that public opinion is some
what divided on the subject. / hear
it said by many that their wheat is
infested with a small, greenish para
site, some fields in vast numbers
and that they suck the substance
from the stem in the head, thus pre-
venting the wheat from maturing.
Early wheat, of course, will not be so
badly affected. have examined them
somewhat, and believe them to be the
same insect that appeared during
the war, and | do not think they
will materially injure early wheat.
Late wheat, however, appears to
be suffering from them, or from
some cause the head does not seem to
be filling very well, and l do not
think, even while / do not share the
alarm of some others, that the wheat
crop ofthe county will come near fill
ing the early expectations of the peo-
pie. Still it doubtless will be fair

The HIillx.yEi dges and Army
Worm.

The following is an extract of a
letter from prominent citizen of
Rockbridge county, Va, and copied
in the Richmond Dispatch:
Our farmers in this county arc ter
ribly afflicted with the milk -midges
and the armyworm. The wheat is
too far advanced to be hurt by the
former, and we hope also by the lat
ter. But oats are hurt seriously by
the midges. One Of our neighbors
had three acres of corn utterly de-
stroyed by the army worm in one
night. He ploughed a deep trench
to protect the remainder of his field,
and the next morning he found mil
lions in the trench, roped up as thick
as his arm, which he killed by
ploughing. | had three acres of
meadow observation-disclosures of
every blade, the stem standing alone.
One portion of our wheat field has a
large number of the army worm in
it, but the wheat is too hard and too
near maturity to be hurt. Had they
appeared ten days earlier the crop
might have been destroyed. The
army worm is also in our meadow,
in which we have twenty i've acres
of the finest timothy and clover,
which ought to yield from one to one
and half tons per acre. The worm
does not disturb the clover, but takes
the timothy. 1t crawls up the stalk,
and in one swallow strips every blade
from the stem. The only remedy
seems to be to plough a deep furrow
around your field before they get into
it, They cannot crawl up a steep
side of the furrow, and they will
gather in the ditch in one night by
millions. We then cover the ditch
with straw and burn them. Some
drag heavy log along the trench and
mash them to death. Others plough
them in like manure.
Our people are much disturbed,
and we may all have to cut our tim
othy too soon as the only means of
saving it.

Ii. L.. Butcher, Superin tie nd G N
of Public Schools.

This gentleman is rapidly acquir-
ing public confidence in the position
that he now fills. We had much
admiration for his predecessor, Presi-
dent Pendleton, of Bethany College,
and were fearful that his place could
not readily be supplied. And now.
without instituting any comparison
between the two, we have no hesita-
ton in saying that every day reveals
the fact that President Pendleton
has worthy successor in our pres
ent Superintendent. He is active,
industrious and energetic -abounds
in valuable suggestions, and is ami
mated by noble ambition to do full
justice to the State and to the great
interests committed to his charge.
A striking evidence of his enterprise
and public spirit is to be seen in The
Vest Virginia School Journal, a
monthly periodical devoted to the
interests of Education, and to the
success of our Free School System.
SO long as the State shall continue
to fill it's official positions with such
men, we may augur brilliant future
for West Virginia. Statesman.
