CARRIES STROKE OF LUCK
Extricated From a Perilous Condition by a
Relative

Extricated From q Peril0us Condition by a
Relative
The information charging Miss Carrie
Smith with assault with deadly weapon
was dismissed yesterday in department
one, on motion of the district attorney.
and the young woman was turned over 10
her uncle. who will take care of her.
Carrie Smith went wrong while ago
and was vn inmate of an Alameda street
crib. She made the acquaintance of loaf
er named Joe Green. and fell in love with
him. Green threw her over for French
nymph, and Carrie went on the warpath.
One evening. couple of months ago,
Green and his new conquest were eating
supper in the notorious resort conducted
by Jean Lenert, on Ferguson alley. when
Carrie walked in. She pulled out IL nice
little 32-caliber hammerless Smith &
Wesson. and let fly three shots at Mr..
Green. who lost no time in making him
self scarce. Officer Steele who was stand
ing near, arrested Carrie. 1t was devel-
oped at the examination, from the testi-
mony of the witnesses. that Carrie could
easily have shot the faithless Joe. as she
was hardly an arms length away from
him, and it was then suspected that her
demonstration was nothing but a bluff.
However. she was held to answer. Her
uncle will take her away from the disso-
lutte people with whom she associated in
Los Angeles. and there are chances that
the young woman may reform.

THE GRAPE BELT A GONER
Frost Has Knocked Out the Wine
Fruit in New York
Ruin Wrought by the Cold Blast Extends
Through Several States and the
Damage Is Enormous

ERIE, Pa, May 13.--The grape crop in
this section will be a complete failure be-
cause OF last nights frost. In this county
1000 acres of vineyards were destroyed,
and in Chautauqua county, New York.
easily 5000 acres are ruined. These vine
yards in good years net $50 an acre. so
the final loss to the grape growers in the
two counties will reach 81, 500 900.
BUFFALO. n. V, May 13.-Dispatches
from all over Western New York prove
this section of the state has suffered from
the frost. Along the grape belt in Chau-
tauqua county the grape growers took
melancholy outlook and some messages
state that the crop is entirely destroyed.
In Niagara county. where small fruits
are frequently raised. there is DISPOSE
ion to take a gloomy view of the ravases
of the frost but conservative judges
think the damages not general nor severe.
Next to grapes, strawberries, perhaps,
have been more seriously hurt.
In Allegheny county the lowest temper
ature recorded was % degrees, and it is
likely all kinds of fruit have been dam
aged.
Dispatches from Western Ontario indi.
cate that the temperature was very low
there and the damage perhaps very much
heavier than on this side of the border.
