PEACH TREE YELLows. Prof George G.
Pearson has issued call for a convention
of peach growers, to be held in Hagerstown,
for the purpose of devising means to exter-
inmate the yelows, which threaten to de-
stroy the peach industry throughout the
Blue Mountain belt in Washington and
adjoining counties. He says the peach
growing industry is in great peril. If the
ycllows and San Jose scale are allowed to
spread, he predicts that the industry will be
ruined in a few years.
Professor Pearson says: "If the peach in.
dustry is to continue, then some power
must be given to some one whereby the
careful growers OF peaches may be protected
from the ravages made upon his orchard by
the diseased orchard of his neghbor, who ia
Indifferent, and allows the diseased trees to
remain and infect the orchard. The treat
ment of the case must be prompt and heroic
The convention which is called should ap
point committee on legislation, who may
frame bin that will protect the intelligent
and industrious grower"
The only remedy for the yellows so far
discovered is to cut down all infected trees
and burn them on the spot The disease &c
far has baffled the experts, who cannot &C
count for 1t origin.

BLUE RIBBON MEETING.
Sensational Racing at the Detroit Tracks
 in Two Classes.

Detroit, Mich, July 20.-When Gus Macey left Kentucky for the grand circuit it was announced that he had the material for getting the money in almost any race. This bit of informa- tion seems to have been unheeded, for to-day he won a rattling race at Crosse Point with Luxon, and those who took a s2 chance on the horse in the mutuals for the first race received $43T for the investment
 The race was for the 2:20 class and The Abbott was a strong favorite over the field. There never was a minute when The Abbott was near enough to telephone to Luxon except at the finish of the third mile when he came third after Luxon had been eased up from ten length lead on the lower turn.
 The sensational outcome of the 2:20 trot quite overshadowed the feature race of the day, the s5,0O0 chamber of commerce for PA pacers. This was won in straight heats by Milton s. The first race had a hot favorite in Dare Devil. He lost the opening heat to Miss Della Fox, a three-year-old lilly with an engagement in the Kentucky Futur- ity. She trotted in 2:15A.
 Robert J. and John R. Gentry left for Chicago to-day.

CONTEST OF LAWSON WTLL.
Attempt to Set Aside the 675O, ,OOO Beques tO VoIe

to Yale.
 New York, July 20.-A special to the Herald from Batavia says:
 ''The beginning of a litigation in which Yale university Is Interested to the extent of'$750,000 was marked in the surrogate's office in Batavia to-day, when objections were filed to the pros bate over the will of William Lamson, late of LeRoy, Genessee county, who left the bulk of his estate to Yale.
 The chief contestant is Mrs. Laura Ann Brooks of St. Paul. Minn.. the wife of a retired Methodist minister and an aunt of MT. Lamson. It Is claimed that the bequest to Yale is null and void, for the reason that the said alleged corpor- atfon is a literary or scientific institl- In an alleged will executed less than two months prior to the decease of the said William Lamson, contrary to the statute governing such bequests.'
 Tt is also asserted that the Yale be- quests are of no effect because they 'ex- ceed the amount which such corpora tions are authorized to take and receive by the last will and testament of the laws of the state from any one individ- ual'
 "Other protests to the will have been filed by Edwin Mcknight of Chester, attorney for several of the heirs."
