Indicted for Poisoning Horses and
Cattle.

Upon evidence charging Conrad Roger
with poisoning the horses and cattle Of Oliver
G. Henley on the farm of the latter, near Lay
louisville. this county, some months back,
the late Grand Jury found presentmen
against him.
The history of this whole matter 10 sin gu :
lar. The changes that have taken place
within IL are marked. The enmity between
Roger and Henley, who are neighboring farm
ers Of not more than a mile or so apart, was
begun over business transaction. Roger
owned threshing machine and ma de a BUSH
ness OF threshing grain for the farmers In
his neighborhood. Several years ago his
services in this capacity were rendered Hen
lev. A dispute grew out Of the settlemen
OF the account. Henley had counter Dill
for work done for Roger. Roger commended
that Henley's account was included in for
mer settlement, and that the date Of the re-
CENT of the former settlement had been
changed by Henley to ante-date the counter
bill of Henley. The case was carried to the
Circuit Court and there Henley got judgment
for small difference between the two ac-
counts.
Roger was not contented with the decision
in the suit Later he appeared before the
Grand Jury and attempted to indict Henley
for perjury. Henley was acquitted of this
oh arge and brought suit against Roger FOR
damages for malicious prosecution. The case
was removed to Frederick city for trial. In
the midst of the trial the case was suddenly
brought to close, and II was rumored that
a compromise was effected by the payment to
Henley of ST. 800 damages.
Not long after the conclusion of that suit
lot of cattle belonging 10 Henley were poi
80 ned. Later his house was burned down in
his absence from home with his family. Stilf
later his horses we're poisoned. These GRIM
nal acts aroused public suspicion and in-
yited condemnation. Several Grand Juries
considered the crimes, but could not reach
the guilty party. New circumstances have
been developed AMI were presented to the late
Grand Jury, which resulted in the present.
ment Of Conrad Roger.
Tuesday last Sheriff Colt brought Roger
into Court, where he gave bail of $500, with
DR.. Spurrier as surety. The counsel for the
State and Roger have agreed to try the case
at the present term Of Court.
States Attorney Robert B. Peter appeared
as counsel for Roger In his first suit TO recov-
er the amount of his threshing bill, but bis
protest. onal connection with Roger ended at
that point He will now prosecute the charge
a against Roger of poisoning the stock OF Hen
ley, who was before the Grand Jury with
other witnesses, upon whose testimony the
Dreaenlment was made

noon, lying partly on an embankment in the
Potomac river and was removed to Seneca,

The Jamestown Exposition.

Within less than 200 miles Of the James
town Exposition grounds more history has
been made than in any other section of like
extent in the New World. Those who con.
template visit TO the Exposition would do
well in the meantime to get out their maps
and read up more or less on American his-
tory. Even the best informed Americans
will find, upon reviewing the history OF our
national development, new items OF interest
in connection with the soil OF Virginia
which will add TO the enjoyment Of the
visit. The Exposition, more than any other
enterprise of similar nature that has pre-
ceded it, is to be lesson in American his.
tory.
The Exposition itself, as enclosed by floral
fence and Hampton Roads beach, embraces
about 400 acres, but outside, reaching for

Important to Fruit. Growers.

Mr.. Editor: Much depends upon the &C.
tivity Of the general fruit grower at this
time of year as to the life OF his trees in the
future and quality Of his fruit this season.
The San Jose Scale is generally disseminated
throughout the State. Even if you are sure
your trees have not this pest among them, 1t
would be money we'll spent to spray them
as a preventive as we'll as to add vigor to
the trees.
Trees infested with the above scale must
be treated at least once year and should
be sprayed while the trees are dormant.
We find that, with our experiments, the
late application in the spring just before the
buds open, seems to be the most satisfactory
time.
We, therefore. urge every orchardist or
person who has few trees to give them at
tention and spray them this spring with the
lime-sulphur wash, which we find to be the
best insecticide for the control of this pest
The Department stands ready to aid all
persons in the State as to giving further in
structons in making and applying the spray
mixture, both by personal as we'll as public
demonstrations. 1t also stands ready to en-
force the law in direfully neglected cases,
and we will give our prompt attention to
complaints in any vicinity where such cases
exist. Get your materials and apparatus
ready to commence work at favorable time.
The most convenient method of making the
lime sulphur wash and discussion of the
other insecticides on the market in this State
are given in Bulletin No. liz, published by
the Maryland Experiment Station, q copy
of which can be had for the asking.
Any further information will be gladly
given.
l am very truly yours,

The msjority Of people seldom realize the
