Socialism. His audience was not a
large one but the speaker impress

conversant with his subject, which
is one that is gaining converts in
this country to the extent that
their numbers have already been
able to make their weight felt in
municipal and State elections in
various sections of the United
States.
The speaker was one of the strik-

Creek Hill Bandits and Texas Rang.
erS In Lively Scrap.

The little village of Texas, neal
the southern border of Lancaster
county, was the scene of an excit-
ing conflict on the Fourth of July,
not down on the program of the
committee who had the celebration
of the glorious natal day in charge.
From time dating back to period
whence no mans memory runneth
a deadly feud has existed between
the Creek Hill Bandits and the
Texas Rangers of that neighbor-
hood, and when these rival bands
met on the outskirts of that
usually quiet little village on the
Fourth, after liberal "priming"
to properly stimulate their patIi-
otism, a clash was inevitable and
needed but the hurling of a stone,
which struck a luckless Bandit,
to precipitate hostilities. After
a bruising conflict which lasted
some minutes, the Bandits, under
the leadership of Chief Kelly, were
victorious, completely routing the
Rangers, who retreated, leaving
three of their number captive in
the hands of the enemy, and losing
one member through desertion.
The casualties On the Greek Hill
Bandit side consisted of the loss of
one man, who was put hors de com
bat by a badly cut face through
contact with stone hurled by some
Ranger and a slight knife wound in
the hand.
At the conclusion Of hostilities
the captives were placed in charge
of Abe Buzzar and held for ransom
while Chief Kelly entertained his
victorious band by joyously singing
a number of Scotch melodies, in
olading "When the 'Kies' Come
Home" We have not heard that
any arrests resulted.

The Delaware Peach Crop Large
One,

Reports from Delaware are that
all indications point to an unusually
large peach crop this year, the
estimated yield being placed at
fully $500, 900 baskets.
From Milford comes the report
that the seasons peach crop will
be the largest since 1898, if not the
largest ever grown in that section.
Growers estimate the probable
shipment by rail from Milford at
100000 baskets; by boat, 10000;
from Lincoln, 10000 baskets. The
early fruit is coming in, bat the
season proper will open about July
Goth, with the Mountain Rose
variety.
From Dover the report is that
the outlook for the peach crop in
lower Delaware this year is the
best known for many years.
While few farmers reaped a har-
vest last year by having thousand
or more baskets, this year many
farmers and fruit growers have
placed their estimates anywhere
from 5000 to 10000, baskets.
The prevailing varieties are the
Elberta, Bell of Georgia and Reeves
Favorite. In almost every in
stance where there are large
orchards the yield will be exceed
ingly heavy,
Seaford-Conservative estimates
place the peach yield in this locality
at one third to one half a crop. A
few white peaches are being brought
in to market, and fair prices are
being realized. Elberta, the peach
centre in Sussex county, will yield
heavily, and farmers look for fancy
prices for this famous peach. Re
frigerator companies are making
extra efforts to handle the crop.
Delaware City-Peach growers in
this locality predict an unusually
large peach crop.
