PEACH CROP AFFECTED
Well Known FruitgroWer Of We
Der County Says the Frost
Did Great Damage.

ogden. Sept. 2O.-A. I. Stone, a well
known fruitgrower, states that the re-
cent frost greatly affected the peach
crop Of this county and that as a re-
suit in his own peach orchard he has
at the present time over 1000 bushels
Of peaches ripe. The frost, while not
severe enough to affect the fruit as to
flavor. was strong enough to stop the
flow Of sap and by reason of that the
peaches have ripened so rapidly during
the past few days that the orchards
throughout the county where the frost
struck them arc ripening up so fast
that the growers are having a difficult
time in handling the crop. Unless a
ready sale is found for the products it
is believed that many hundreds OF
bushels will be lost The fruit crop
throughout the county has been very
good this year and is bringing a very
good price.

AIDING THE OUTLAWS.
Emissary Bringing Ammunition Of
All Calibres.

Chinook. Mont. Sept. 20.-Jim Lam
dusl<y, son of Pike Landusky, who was
killed by Kid Curry before the Great
Northern hold-up of two years ago. was
i'm town today, buying ammunition of all
Cdlibers. Pike IAndusky was killed by
Curry because the latter feared he would
betray the Curry gang. In spite of this,
young Landusky is known as a warm
friend and adherent of Curry. His pro-
miscuous purchase of cartridges and the
fact that the posses are in search of Cur
~ lead to the opinion that the outlaw
has reached the members of his gang in
the Scar Paw mountains and that all are
preparing to give their pursuers q warm
reception. Pike Landusky was the man
after whom was named the town of Ian
Gusky, where Curry was last heard of a
few days ago.
