EMBEzzLEMERT
Is the Charge Placed Against a Baker Of
ClarkSburg.

George L. Boring, baker of this
city, was arrested yesterday afternoon
on charge of embezzling money given
him by his mother for the purpose of
depositing it in bank in her name.
Some time ago, it is alleged Boringwas
given check by his mother which She
instructed him to present to the Trad
ers Bank, and draw out the money and
then deposit it in the Lowndes Savings
Bank. Boring drew out the money,
and, it is further alleged, that he ap-
propriated it to his own use. The to-
tai amount of the money he is said to
have embezzled is about $4,000 He was
taken before Squire Riley and waived
an examination. His bond was fixed at
81 900. There is now a suit pending
in Chancery against him and institut-
ed by his mother, for the recovery OF
a one-half interest in some real estate
located on Lee street and valued at
about $1,000 The embezzelment case
will come up at the April term of the
grand jury. G. b. Johnson is attorney
for Mrs. Boring.-Clarksburg Post

CALIFORNIA; ORANGES
A Crop Of Il, 900 Car Loads 10 the Southern
Counties.

These are very busy days in the or
ange-groves of southern California, for
the harvesting of the largest orange
yield ever known in this state is in pro-
gress, says correspondent, writing at
the end of February. Besides, the mar
ket for the fruit is very fine and the
growers, shippers, railroad companies,
and all people concerned in the orange
industry are more prosperous than
ever before, CloseIy estimated, there
are some 21,000 carloads of oranges,
comprising about 100000 boxes, now
ripening on the trees and about to be
sent to market. At current market
prices this fruit is worth to the growers
beween $67O0OOO and $1,000, 900. This
is the third season of rare prosperity
to the California orange-growers and
the industry is going forward by
bounds.
Very few people know the extent of
orange-growing out here and the capi-
tai Qargely from the eastern states)
invested in the industry Since 1883
the area of orange-groves has been in
creased by over 10000 acres. The state
board of agriculture estimated that
about S45,000,000 is invested directly
and indirectly in the production of Or
anges, and that the orange industry
has raised the valuation of property in
southern California over $9O,OO0,00 in
twelve years.
Many famous Americans own orange
groves in southern California, and
some of them have orangegrove in
vestments running up to $4,000 and
even $4,000. Ex-Vice President Ste
venson has a beautiful grove in Pomo-
ma Valley. Richard Mansfield, ine ac
tor, has ten-acre and very fruitful
grove in Redlands. Paderewski, Tie
pianist bought superb grove at San
Diego, when he was in California last
year. United States Senator John P.
Jones, of Nevada has over $4,000 in
vested in orange-groWing in Los An
geles county. The late Philip d. Ar
mour owned a large young grove in the
