They, with others, had been in
the Hamilton House bar, where,
it is said, North offered to treat
everybody there at the time, but
Holmes refused to drink with
him, saying that he (North) had
caused him enough trouble al
ready and made a motion as if to
draw a revolver, but friends got
North outside and he had started
over to the Ludy & Light livery
barn when the shot was fired.
Nobody was hurt and where the
bali went nobody knows, but
Holmes was arrested and locked
up and Friday morning North
filed an affidavit charging Holmes
with shooting with intent to kill,
but which, after a consultation
between them was changed to
discharging firearms within the
city and carrying concealed wea-
pons. Holmes plead guilty to
both and was fined $40 for the
latter offense and $25 for the for
mer, which, with the costs, he
paid. Thus is another chapter in
this unsavory case ended.

DELAWARE PEACH
INDUSTRY IS DYING
Growers Turn Orchards Into
Wheat Farms Because of
III Luck With Fruit.

CHESWOLD Del. Dec. 5.-That the
peach growing industry IN Delaware.
which has made the State ia
nous over the country is dying out IS a
certainty.
The work, expense, ana risk, after
combating against the scale. yellows.
and dozen other diseases TO which
peach trees fall heir. has disheartened
many or the large growers and they
are turning their orchards, once &
pride, into farm lands.
Many acres Of orchards are being
Invested OF their trees and the own
ers intend 20 turn their attention TO
growing wheat. corn and other staple
products. Men who have stood first
and foremost as successful peach
growers in the past. among whom can
bo counted John Hietshu and d. c.
Bailey, are fast losing faith IN the
peach as a money making investment.
Mr.. Hietshu, who has three large
farms near this place is quoted as
having said Il am done working
peaches"
Delaware for many years has pro-
duced q most luscious peach and IN
many instances, shipments Of the
fruit were made 70 foreign ports.
within recent years, however, the
growers have met reVf Tse after re-
verse because OF the late frOsts and
the various diseases which attack this
particular fruit, Several years ago
almost every large orchard IN the
peach growing belt IN Delaware was
attacked with the san Jose scale
which killed thousands Of trees.
Although disheaTtened, the grow
ers gave battle 10 the pest and sue
ceeded IN wiping IL out after the eX-
pendiJure Of many thousands OF dol
lars. This epidemic left It's blight up
on the orchards, however, and they
have been paying little in return for
the amount OF labor eNpended.
