DRY WEATHER HURTS FRUIT
AND PRICES GO UP

State Entomologist w. NJ. Scott has re-
ceived a letter from a fruit grower at
Calhoun saying that he has offered to
sell his crop of liberia peaches for 50
per crate. This is a very high price. but
he thinks that this year he will be able
to command it,
Last year liberia peaches sold in Geor-
gia at rs cents and 81 per crate. and the
fact that 50 per crate is being offered this
year will no doubt cause a sensation in
fruit circles.
Discussing the situation Mr.. Scott said
that the dry weather was injuring the
fruit considerably and that all early
peaches would be small. Mr.. Scott thinks
that the crop of Elbertas this year will be
as fine as the state ever produced.

Just stepped on.

Sunday when the excursion train
from Paris, filled with negroes bound
for the camp-meeting, reached this
city, it passed the station and went
through Cynthiana at the rate of about
rs miles and hour the idea being to
keep the crowd on board until the ar
rival at the grounds at the Falmouth
pike crossing. Just before reaching the
Pike street a negro man jumped from
the train. OF course, the momentum
Of the cars carried him along at ter
rifle pace. His body was going so fast
that his legs could not possibly keep
up, but they made valiant effort to
do so, and such liclIity-split a negro
never cut before. He galloped across
the gutter at Pike street at tremendous
speed, barely missing a telephone pole,
flew up into the air, turned a couple
Of somersaults. and landed all in a
heap in the middle of the street. His
eyes were as big as saucers and seemed
to pop out. AS he slowly gathered
himself together his trousers were split,
his knees were bruised and bleeding,
his arms we're wrenched, his coat-tails
were in tatters, and his battered stiff
hat was smashed down tight over his
ears.
At that moment a negro girl who
knew him came along.
"Why, how do you 40, Mr.. Hopkins, E"
she exclaimed.

measured accent allow do you do?

And he had heard her Sigh ior him
But that was past for aye

And love that had been sweet and true,

CONTRACT LABOR SYSTEM.
Governor Durbin in Conference with
State Labor Leaders.

During the Republican state convention
Governor Durbin announced that 1T was
his intention to call into conference a
number of leaders OF organized labor. with
the idea of obtaining from them sugges-
tons as to lettering the contract-labor
system at the Michigan City Prison and at
the Jeffersonville Reformatory. At that
time the Governor intimated that the next
Legislature might be asked to change the
system now in use if suggestions of per-
manent value were obtained.
The meeting was held yesterday in his
office. Edgar A, Perkins, president of the
State Federatio of Labor, a number of
other local labor leaders. State Factory In
spector McAbee, Labor Commissioner Nc
Cormack and Amos w. Butler, secretary
of the Board of State Charities, were pres
ent. The meeting lasted nearly three
hours, and il is understood that the whole
subject was thoroughly gone over.
Although no one present at the meeting
would discuss what was said. ii is stated
that the labor men were earnest in their
requests that the system be changed TAX
ing the attitude that contract labor should
not be employed on any other underta king
than public work. II is understood that
Secretary Butler took the position that the
matter was one with which the State could
not afford TO experiment, and that matters
were best left they are unless some
definite system that promises practical re-
suits can be evolved.
The law under which contract labor is
now administered provides that contracts
shall not be made 10 extend beyond Oct l.
1904, and it will be the business of the next
Legislature TO settle what the State shall
do about the contract labor after that
