SALEM, Va, March 26.-The report which
Rev. J. s. Hutchinson. OF the Methodist
church of Salem, will make TO the Balti-
more Conference now IN session at har-
risonburg will probably be unequalled as
coming from a town of not quite 5000 peo-
pie. The present membership. OF the
church is 40l. of which seven.y-four are
additions made during the past year; the
Sunday school numbers 200 scholars and
twenty-six teachers. Amount raised by
the congregation for all purposes, SO. lO8.99.
Value OF church and parsonage, 200.
Rev. Charles L, Herndon, OF LOudoun
county. has been called by the Baptists
here to fill the pull pit made vacant by the
death of DR.. Tyree. He mas not yet ac-
cepted, but has written that he Will visit
the church on the first Sunday IN April
and preach here.
The Presbyterians have adopted for use in
their church Hymns of the Ages. the
compilation of Rev. DR.. Kerr, of Richmond.
FRUIT CROPS.
There Is every prospect so FAR Tor an otner
large apple crop In Roanoke county, which
means more to this section than the wheat
crop. The peaches have been consldera-
bly injured by the last cold snap, but even
now il is thought there will be plenty. A
farmer near Hollins. who has 1900 peach
trees and u cannery, IS carrying over 1000
cases of canned peaches, which IS equlya-
lent to seyenty-two tons.
NOW IN THE COURTS.
A sash and door manufacturer who car
ried on an immense business here during
the booming days of 1890. and who suffered
materially by the repeated failure OF the
Norfolk and Western railroad to deliver
lumber aud freight on time during that
period. has sued that company for $4,000.
The case comes up in the April Circuit
Court and should be successful. There
are a number of builders and others who
also suffered who will bring suit. During
that memorable blockade freight was
known To have been two months on the
road, a week or two of which the cars
were detained i'll Roanoke. and some
perishable goods actually rotted on the
car Salem people complained then with
out getting any relief; possibly the courts
will recompense them now.
The Salem Improvement Company have
| paid that part of the town taxes which
they do not dispute, amounting to
| S3.Sl0.3l. There yet remains ! SIS IN dis
which goes to the Court OF Appeals for
settlement.
