HOMICIDE In. GILES.
A NAV KILLED BY HIS FArHER-rx.
LAW.
MANY SHOTS WERE EXCHANGED
The Cause OF the Trouble, Hard
Feeling Growing Out Of a Land
Transnction-The People Excited
Threats of Lynching.

BLACKSBURG. VA, July 5.-(special.)
Not since the killing Of John Luster by
Joe Keister here. four years ago, have the
people OF Blacksburg been so excited as
they were by the news which reached
here late yesterday evening Of the killing
OF Paris McCroskey that day by -
Lawson. at New Port, Giles county. Your
correspondent has gathered the following
facts regarding the affair:
Lawson, in order to save piece Of land
from his creditors, decided 1t some time
ago to his eldest daughter. This daughter
subsequently married Paris McCroskeY.
After the marriage Lawson went to see
them, and said 1t was but just that half
OF the land should be decided to his Sc
This the couple agreed to do. The deed
was written by local magistrate, but
when 1t became necessary to sign II some
days later before notary public. both
McCroskey and his wife refused to do so.
A VIOLENT QUARREL
I. This precipitated violent quarrel be-
tween Lawson and McCroskey, in which
bitter words were said and bitter feelings
engendered. The men did not meet again
until yesterday. Lawson came into Dun
kelPs store, at New Port, with his Win
chester and said McCroskey was q id
scoundrel, and he intended shooting him
on sight. He left, and not very long al
ter McCroskey came in. He was told OF
the threat. but did not make a reply
amounting to anything, and in a few min
utes he mounted his horse and rode off.
About five minutes later Lawson fired on
him. To this McCroskey replied from his
horse by emptying the five chambers of
his pistol. Lawson had also continued TO
shoot, but no damage was done. Nc
Croskey reached for and drew second
pistol. but it failed to fire. Upon seeing
this he leaped from his horse and started
10 run.
SHOT HIM DEAD.
Lawson followed, and after pursuing
him for few hundred yards, shot him
dead. the bali striking him in the neck.
McCroskey had many friends In New
Port, and though Lawson had given him
self up to the authorities Immediately
the people were greatly excited, and
swore he should be killed. Whether this
threat will b. carried into execution re-
mains to be seen. 1t is to be sincerely
hoped that it will not be. McCroskey has
a brother living here.

SHOT HIM DEAD.
FINCASTLE.
Interest I'm the Wharf.-The Crops--Tbc
Coming Industry.

FINCASTLE. VA, July 5.--(Special)-
But for the burning of a little powder
and the closing Of the post-ofiice and
bank, yesterday would hardly have been
recognized as the anniversary Of Amcri-
can independence. The intense interest
in the war, and the news coming daily
from our struggling army now investing
Santiago, rises above everything else, ana
the great question agitatinS the minds of
all Is I'm regard TO the progress of our
arms and the final result of the conflict.
In the midst of the narrowing Thoughts
Of war and its dreadful consequences, we
are contendng now with drought which
threatens to damage all vegetation which
has not matured. Fortunately. the wheat
crop, which is considered the best and
most abundant raised I'm the county for
years. has already been secured. and the
machines are at work threshing 1t out.
The oat crop is also a fair one. and viii
be ready to harvest i'm few days.
Corn Is looking well at the present
time. but needs rain, which must come in
a short time TO insure n good yield.
Garden vegetables, however. are suffer
ing. and many of them are already de-
stroyed.
III Vas lnOuEnl AT one tlHle thdt W
would have large crop Of apples IN the
county. but IT seems now that the d'Al-
age by cold weather is much greater
than was first supposed. and the fruit Is
rapidly falling from the trees.
Contrary TO all expectations. the yield
of peaches promises to be fair. In some
orchards. while few trees have failed
altogether, there are others which will
give a good half crop, and few which
seem NOT TO have been affected by frost,
The probability is that We will have COM
paratively as many peaches as apples.
\ number of new canneries are going
up. and the acreage In tomatoes this year
is much larger than common. This IN
terest has been OF great value TO the
county. and the fact that It is growing
shows that it is profitable to those who
conduct the industry.
