FRUIT DAMAGED BUT LITTLE
PEACH AND APRICOT BUDS ONLY
ARE INJURED BY COLD.
Commissioner Schel Predicts Big
Crop for This Year in Arkansas
Valley.

". F. Schell, proprietor of the Wichita
nursery, who is also commissioner of
horticulture, has examined the fruit trees
and reports that the cold spell Of several
days ago did very little damage.
The peaches and apricot trees were
the only varieties which experienced any
damage whatever" said Mr.. Schen, yes
terday. These kinds of trees We're in
jured only in the early varieties where
the petals had opened and We're thus ex-
posed to the freezing atmosphere. APP
pies, grapes and the small kinds Of fruits
were uninjured. With favorable weather
from now on and no more extreme cold
weather. the fruit crop of the Arkansas
valley will far exceed that of last year
Mr.. Schen is very enthusiastic over
the outlook this year for big crop of
all kinds of fruit. He has made care
full inspection Of fruit trees to denote
the amount of damage done, and is sat
isfied that it does not exceed that as told
in the foregoing.

BLACK MAFIA.
Five Before Day" Organizations In
Leon County Florida.

Tallahassee Fla, Sept 7.-Since
Saturday nights trouble, it has been
| learned that there are five Before Day
Clubs in Leon county. While it is
said these clubs were o. ganized last
Christmas, there are a number of per
sons who will make affidavit to the
fact that these clubs have been known
in Leon county for the past three
years.
It is remembered that about three
years ago a negro appeared in Rich
mond, Va, many averring that he
came direct from Washington city
While in Richmond this negro made an
incendiary speech, advising his race to
do all manner Of mean things. He
advised the organization of the BE.
fore Day Club" This organization
ter, and the work of organizing must
have been first instituted in Florida,
if they had existed three years in Leon
county.
Five clubs are known to exist in
this county-One at Tallahassee Lake
Hall, Lake Jackson, Dawkins Pond and
the Meridian neighbOrhoOd These
five clubs may not number one hun.
dred members, for it is we'll known
that there are many good negroes
throughout the county who are not in
sympathy with this organization. They
want to live in peace and quiet, and
will have nothing to do with it.
There can be no doubt but that
Mr.. Eppes was murdered by a mem.
Der of this organization, and the peo.
pie of the northern section of this
county are greatly incensed, since it
has been given out by member of the
Before Day Club that many of the
best citizens of that section have been
selected as victims. While some peo
pie are nervous and excited about the
matter, the brave and determined men
OF Leon county, who are in the habit
of settling such issues when they
come, are quiet and determined, and
will settle this problem whenever it
presents itself in a bold and fearless
manner.
TWO more negroes were brought In
from Bradfordville Monday afternoon
by Deputy Sheriff John Hopkins. Their
names are Henry Henry and William
Robinson. They are in the Leon coun.
ty Jail Deputy Sheriff Langston re-
turning to Jacksonville on Monday ar
rested two negroes and put them in

bic to fall back to a shorter defensive
line. This he established during the
night from Buckland on the extreme
south OF the zone through Thorough.

east Of the gap, to Antiochoon, the
extreme north. The defense was es.
tablished by daylight, and it is on this
line that General Grant is advancing.
Barry's brigade of the Brown army,
holds the line from Buckland to Thor.

gade which extends to Little Bull Run

pletes it to Antioch. Lees brigade is
in reserve near Thoroughfare. Gen
eral Grant has not yet fully develop

the firing are that his main attack is
to be delivered by General Wint form

and Frost, which were not seriously
engaged yesterday doubtless will be
thrown into action today.

Coal Commission,

Coal Commission.
Philadelphia, Sept. Judge Gray,
who was chairman of the anthracite
coal commission today as umpire,
heard argument by the members of the
board of conciliatiOn on the question
of the right of the operators to collect
money from employees with which to pay
check Weighman and bosses unless a
legal assignment of the amount is
made by the employe. The miners
employees vote for the employment of
check weighman and docking bosses,
the wages are to be deducted from
the pay of all
This, the miners, claim, is in ac-
cordanee with the decision of the
strike commission and is substantial
ed by Umpire Wright.
During Mr.. Warringer's presenta.
ton Of the operators position, Judge
Gray interrupted several times with
interrogations. The judge desired to
know whether the operators collect.
ed from the miners wages the pay of
any one else connected with the
mines. Judge Gray cited as an ex-
ample the physicians and blacksmiths
Mr.. Warriner contended that the pay
of the doctor was collected by the op-
orators on an assignment made by the
miners and that they also collected
when requested by legal assignment
payments for clergymen. The miners
insisted that their pay was collected
without an assignment and whether
the miners had made use of the black
smith or not,
Mr.. Nichols cited the case of the
Susquehannah Coal company, near
Hazelton, and said miners were docked
for the pay OF the blacksmith when
they did not use his services. Mr..
Nichols said the company made the
deduction on the amount In the coal
mined by the miner.
At the conclusion of Mr.. WARMERS
presentation Mr.. Nichols was recog.
