Body of Drowned Tie Hand
Almost Sinks Dry Dock
Thomas Parker, Colored, Fell From
Margaret and Disappeared Last
Monday.
RECOVERED IN ODD MANNER

Tragedy nearly caused catastrophe
at the Paducah dry docks last night
at O'Clock. The plug to one sec
tlon was knocked out and 1t was pre-
vented from sinking only by the wife
of the night Waterman, Charley Brig
meyer, hearing humping noise un-
der the docks. This morning at 8
o'clock the cause of the accident be-
came startlingly apparent when the
dead body of Thomas Parker, the
colored tie hand who fell off the tow
boat Margaret week ago today and
was drowned, shot up between two
sections of the dry docks.
When Parker fell off the Margaret
last Monday, he shouted to the men
on the boat that he could get along
al right; but he suddenly went under
and was never seen again until this
morning at 8 o'clock The most con-
sistent explanation of his sinking
only once is that the strong suction
at the head of the dry docks pulled
him under. Charles Brigmeyer, the
Belgian Waterman at the dry docks
went to the section of the docks this
morning, where he had found the
plug out the night before. As he
was standing looking at the ten feet
expanse of water between the two
sections of the docks. dead body
shot head first out of the water waist
high before it fen back.
Brigmeyer was impelled back sew
eral PAGES by the shock of the start
ling appearance of the body. Imme-
diately remembering that Parker's
body was supposed to be under the
docks, and he quickly grabbed a
rope and secured the body to the
docks.
With the appearance of Parker's
body. Brigmeyer knew why the plug
had been knocked out of one section
Of the dry docks. The humping
noise, which his wife heard Sunday
night, was Parker's body hitting
against the bottom of the docks. The
time had expired when the body nat
urally would remain under water,
and its effort to reach the surface
caused it to repeatedly hit the plug,
finally dislodging IT,
Sunday night Brigmeyer replaced
the pug. and pumped out the water,
but the humping continued until the
body came to the surface this morn
ing. Saturday they were raising and
lowering several of the sections Of
the dry docks, and the body is sup
posed to have been dislodged from
some distractions. A deep cut had
been received across the right cheek.
but otherwise the body was perfectly
preserved.
1t was carried to an undertaking |
establishment and win be buried to-
day by relatives.

Weather predictions for tonight
indicate heavy frosts. but It is prob
able that the weather man is "a
hours late. Ice and frost were both
visible this morning. Truck garden
ers report frost on the young toma-
toes, on the strawberry plants and
other developing vegetables. It is not
likely that much damage resulted.
Cold was preferable to rain on Easter,
but even the cold would not have
been disagreeable but for the high
wind that blew all day. Considering
the fact that Easter this year is Is
days ahead of last year, the weather
was not Objectionable. Warm wealth
er is predicted to Immediately follow
this cold spell. Altogether. March,
1907, has been the most pleasant
and beautiful first month of spring
within the memory of many people.
Little rain has fallen and no snow

Little rain has fallen and no snow

The Orchards Greatest Enemy

While centering attention on the
brown-tail and gypsy moths, fruit grow
ers must not lose sight Of the fact that
there are other enemies to look out for.
The San Jose scale has been up for q
large measure Of attention at the fruit
growers conventions the past winter.
In the fruit growing sections where this
insect has made lodgment the testi-
mony brought out the past winter pro-
nounces it one of the most serious enc
mics fruit growers have to contend with.
At the recent meeting Of the Western
New York Horticultural Society W. S.
Hopkins, in alluding to the work of
this scale, claimed, "You may combine
all the pests that have ravaged our or
chards for the last fifty years and they
will not equal the ravages OF this little
insect" "This Infection" he stated
further, "hss been brought about prin-
cipally through the planting of infected
nursery stock"
Laws have been enacted in New York
state, and also in other nursery growing
states, requiring the inspection and
treatment of nursery stock for the de-
struction of this insect before delivery.
In speaking of the lax observance Of this
law for the protection Of purchasers the
speaker above referred to expressed
himself as follows: "What farce this
inspection isr' II have seen," he con-
tinued, "trees sent out the past year by
one of the oldest and most reliable nur-
series in the state, and have been able to
find at least thousand scales on an In
dividual pear or apple tree"
So far as is known, this scale insect
has not yet found lodgment in this
state. We call attention to the above
disclosures at this time as warning to
receivers of nursery stock the coming
spring to be on their guard against this
pest. Not tree, shrub or plant should
be accepted without a guarantee OF
freedom from this insect. 1t Is every
where conceded that it has been chiefly
spread through nursery stock.-Maine
Farmer.
