he was hit and that DR.. Thomas judged
the same thing.

THIS YEAH.
Of the Fruit Being shipped out
Of Here Daily ny Express and Freight
some Figures.

The peach season is now at its
height in Berkeley county and the sur
rounding fruit growing belt and car
loads of the luscious fruit are being
$ hipped ont of here daily to the large
cities. Every night wagon after wag-
on can be seen coming into town load
ed with fruit to be shipped out of Mar
tinsburg by express and by freight.
The stream commences in the evening
at about dusk and up until midnight
it continues to pour into town every
night by the dozen wagonloads. The
peaches brought to town for shipment
are shipped principally over the b. &
o., as those sent over the @. v. are,
as a rule, sent from the smaller sta
tions near the orchards.
During the month of September the
United States Express Company alone
has shipped out of Martinsburg s, 462
packages of the luscious fruit, aggre-
eating 1863, 725 pounds. OF that num-

In addition to the fruit shipped by
the United States Express Company a
large amount has been shipped by
freight and by the Adams Express
Company. The officers of the latter
company will give no figures.
Mr.. Trenary, the local agent for the
United States Express Company, is
keeping special account of the ship
ment of peaches for he West Virginia
Agricultural Experiment Station. The
experiment station specialists are keep
ing close watch on this fruit belt,
which promises to become one of the
greatest in the country.
This is an off year for apples and a
comparatively small amount of that
fruit is being shipped out of here this
season. The shipment of peaches
goes steadily on, however. The bulk
of the shipments are being made from
the Miller orchards.
There is big crop of apples in the
northern apple belt this year.

PRISON SUNDAY
Kansas Ministers to Speak Here on
Redemption Of Criminals.

AS the territory is too young to have
her own penitentiary our convicted
prisoners are sent to the Kansas pen
itentiary, located at Lansing, near
Leavenworth. When these prisoners
finish their sentences they often set
tie in Kansas. These facts link the
two commonwealth closely together
as far as their prison problems are
concerned. Consequently any work
done for the welfare of the prisoners
in Kansas also affects Oklahoma.
Over year and half ago there
was established in Kansas a society.
having for its work the aid of dis.
charged prisoners. Acting on the
theory that an ounce of prevention is
worth many pounds Of cure, this So
ciety works for the prevention Of
crime. It also holds that the criminal
will not cease to be a criminal unless
his motive is changed; therefore, il
works for the conversion of the pris-
