ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS with many OF
the leading orchardists Of this city and
vicinity, among them being Prof. II. T.
French, of the experiment. station farm,
Judge J. III. Forney, Fred veatch and
Frank E. Mix, disclosed the fact that
the loss to fruit by the recent freeze
Will not exceed 10 to Is per cent, and
this 10 confined almost entirely to the
sweet cherries.
Prof. French says that the loss on the
university farm is confined almost en-
tirely to sweet cherries, all other varie-
ties of fiuit being unhurt, or not more
than 10 OF is per cent.
Fred Veatch makes the same report
on early cherries, but finds no injury to
plums, prunes, pears or apples. He
places the per cent the same as above.
Judge j. III Forney. who owns a fine
orchard under the mountain, just north
of Moscow, and in most favored loca-
ton, says that there is no loss at all to
any variety of fruit in his locality.
Frank f. Mix says that none of his
cherries are hurt. The same condition
prevails regarding all other fruit.
Peculiar conditions are found as to
injury. In one block in this city severe
losses to cherries will be found, while
the fruit on the block adjoining will be
severely cut. On the whole conditions
in the section about Moscow are good.

Under his arrangement Miller will
earn next year not less thai $25,
to say nothing of what he may re-

ginning in the middle Of November,
when the Oakland racing season Will

Oce

Especial to News and Observer.)
Norfolk, Va, Sept. 18-Rather than
spend twenty years in the North Car
DINA penitentiary for the crime of kid
u~apping, a crime of which one of his
last acts was to declare himself guilt
less, Joshua Harrison tool his life
here in the new Gladstone Hotel at
$50 o'clock his afternoon.
Harrison arrived mere yesterday ana
went direct to the Gladstone. He
came here from Elizabeth city, where
he had appeared in court TO renew the
bond on which he was at liberty pend
ing the decision of the North carolina
Supreme Court on u motion Tor a new
trial in his case. His bond was raised
from $4,000 to $4,000 and he had no
trouble in furnishing it. He Inmedl
ately left for Norfolk and the supreme
Court almost az quickly rendered d
decision adversely to him.
The Norfolk police were asked TO
arrest him. Harrison made no EFFORT
TO conceal his identity here, and no
trouble was experienced in locating
him at the hotel. He was staying close
in his room and a little strategy was
resorted to get him out. A bell boy
was sent to his room by Detective
Harry Wright, who went TO make the
arrest, with Instructions to tell Har-
AlooIl l1l0l III u
ephone.
The boy was advised by Harrison
that he could not answer the phone
and appeared to realize that 1t was q
Gecov message Detective Wright re-
NAMED at the foot of the stairway as
the bell boy Went up TO deliver the
message. The boy had hardly gotten
well down stairs TO report 10 the de-
tective when q pistol shot rang out IN
the k~idnappers room.
The door of the room was irnmedl-
atelv forced open and Harrison was
found lying upon the bed with a bullet
hole in his right temple. He was
bleeding freely and a pool of blood
had settled about his head. Although
he was unconscious there was still life
in his body. lie was hurried to the
st. V~incent's Hospital, barely alive,
and a hasty examination showed that
there was no chance for his life. 1t
was reported later from the hospital
that another and more thorough ex-
had been made, but proved
more conclusively that he had no
chance of recovery. The bullet fired
in his temple will prove fatal. At
1880 o'clock he was still unconscious
In Harrison's room was found a let
ter signed by him., in which he stated
that oe was innocent of the crime with
which he wa charged and upon which
he was convicted, and that he knew
nothing whatever of it. The exact
wording of the letter the police do not
see fit to reveal.
