Injured Seriously in Harrisburg Pa
Wreck Last Thursday Morning.
TRAIN WAS BLOWN TO PIECES
By the Explosion OF Two Cars OF Dy-
nanlite-Mr. Mcmillan is Presi-
dent of the rlcrIiiIan Lumber Conn
pany OF This County.

Last Thursday morning about two
o'clo * one of the most fearful wrecks
in the history of railroading occurred
III the suburbs of Harrisburg, Pa.
when IA fast express and passenger
train collided with the wreckage of a
freight train resulting in the death
OF more that twenty persons and the
serious injury OF nearly one hundred,
among the injured being Mr.. W. E..
Mcmillan, president of the Mcmillan
Lumber Company, of this county,,
whose mills are located near Wilson,
on the West Virginia Central Rail-
way.
Ia the freight which was first
wrecked and thrown onto the track
of the passenger train, were two ears
of dynamite. Without q moments
warning the passenger trainpiled in
to the wreckage and the conclusion
being so great the dynamite exploded,
hurting death and destruction in
every direction. Immediately after
the dynamite let 20 the wreckage
! took fire, burning the mangled to
| death in many instances.
Mr.. McMillan's injuries consist of
both legs and one of his thumb being
broken and deep cut across his
| chest. Mr.. Mcmillan, in company
wit his attorney, Mr.. E. D. Edison,
! of New York, was on his way from
that city to Pitrsburg. The two men
occupied opposite berths in the sleep
ing car Garnet. When the collision
occurred Edison called to Mcmillan to
! hurry out of his berth and leave the
coach. Mcmillan jumped from his
berth and crawled through window
of sthe wrecked Pullman, when he
was hurled by the first explosion a
| distance 90 feet over the river EN-
| bankment. The force of the explo-
sion shattered the coach, and what
remained of it was consumed by the
/ flames. Is is feared that Edison was
caught in the debris and was com.
pletelv incinerated.
AS soon as the father OF Young
Mcmillan could be located by the rail
road company he WAS notified of the
accident and drove from the mill tc
Oakland where he took the train OIL

INFORMATION FOR ORCHARDlSTS
State Entomologist Tells How Pests
Nay Be Exterminated.

There are many insects which we
may consider our annual visitors. Ac.
cordingly, orchardists as well as those
who have a small number of trees for
home use, should take every precau-
ton towards protecting the trees and
fruit that remain on after the recent
freezes from insects and fungi attack.
Apples trees should be sprayed at
this time with Paris Green or other
arsenite (3-S los. to 30 gallons of wa
ter for protection against the Cooling
moth. an insect that causes the mai
GRITTY of our worlnv apples. 1t is wise
/ 10 apply the Paris Green with Bor-
deaux Mixture which will control var
/ ious fungus diseases.
/ The Apple-tree Tent caterpillar
seems to be present in enormous num-
/ bers this spring. Since the insect cae
easily be detected by its conspicuous
nests or tents, the whole colony can
be torn from the tree in early morn
ing or evening and destroyed. A
torch may also be employed to destroy
them. Or if they are out of reach
spraying the branches nearest the
nests with an arsenite will control
them.
Injury from the plum curculic by
"stinging" the fruit will probably be
more pronounced this year owing to
the fact that large per cent of the
peaches and plums have already been
killed by frosts in some parts of the
State. The beetles attack both plum,
peach and apple. Spraying the tree
with Paris Green or other arsenite
will have the effect of killing some of
the beetles as they feed on the foliage
and fruit. The "jarring' method
should also be practiced when practi-
cable, that is, where the tree is not
too large to jar easily. 1t consists of
placing large sheet under the tree
and then jarring the tree suddenly.
If done in early morning the beetles
will fall into the sheet and then can
be destroyed. 1t may be necessary to
continue this work every morning for
two weeks or until they become very
scarce.
In controlling the asparagus beetles
which are causing much trouble at
this time, the only means we may
suggest is spraying with an arsenite,
busting air Stacked lime on the plants
to kill the larvae, and to let part of
the asparagus grow UP as trap for
the insects. They can then be treat
ed on the trap asparagus more effec-
lively by spraying or catching them.
Any further Information AS to the
above or other insects pests will be
gladly given by communicating with
the State Entomologist, College Park,
Md. Thomas B. Symons, State En-
tomologi3t.

ANOTHER LOT PURCHASED.
By Lutheran COngregatiOn-Failed to
Get Deed for Lot Bought Last
Week.

After having decided to purchase
the Yellowly lot on Alder street as a
site for the proposed new Lutheran
church by vote Of the members of
the congregation and giving the nee
essary authority to the building com
mittee to begin operations on the
church, the owners of the property
refused to dispose of the lot and as
result another location was sought for
the purpose.
At the meeting of the congregation
called for Monday night of this week
when large number of the members
were present to make another selec-
ton, by an almost unanimous vote
the McComas property fronting on
Second street adjoining the Browning
Hotel, was purchased, the price paid
being $1,000 cash.
This property is very desirable
one, the location being on a paved
street and while not as central as the
Yellowiy property, it will answer the
purposes Of the congregation very
well.
Authority was vested in the build
ing committee to begin operations
at once and if no hitch occurs in Sc
curing title to this lot, which is not
anticipated, the erection OF the build
ing will begin as soon as plans can be
secured and adopted.
