STORM LOSS IN COUNTY
WILL REACH $4,000

This paper told yesterday Of the
dreadful hail storm that passed across
the western half of Berkeley county
Wednesday evening, leaving destruc-
ton in iis wa6e aggregating thousands
and thousands Of dollars. And all this
great loss to fruit growers, farmers
and truckers was produced In the
short period of a few minutes.
It is almost impossible to accurate.
~ compute the total loss occagioned
BY this hail storm, unprecedented In
its fury and the area Of country az.
fected, but a conservative estimate
places the loss at 100000.
This is the estimate OF one Of the
leading fruit growers OF the county
and one Of it's most astute business
men. This gentleman says ii Is not
only the loss Of this years crop of
apples, pears and corn that is to be
reckoned, but the indirect loss that is
still more difficult to compute that
is, the damage to the fruit trees them
selves. The hail not only cruelty
stripped the trees of their fruit and
foliage, leaving them bare and rem
dering the fruit practically worthless,
but ii did untold damage to the trees.
Many of them, says the gentleman
quoted, may never bear again and if
they do It will not be more than a
partial crop for some years to come.
This Indirect loss must be added 10
the present loss If anything like
correct estimate is attempted For
this reason the figures of 100000 will
be found very nearly correct, the
greatest storm loss in the history OF
the county.
Whilst the storm as has been told,
extended from above Gerrardstown
clear to the Potomac river, a distance
of nearly twenty miles, and from and
including the famous Apple Pie Ridge
to the mountain on the west, the very
heart of the apple belt of Berkeley
county, it seems to have been the Sc
verest in one respect in the northern
end of the county. In that section a
wind storm resembling a tornado ac-
companied the hail. This was espec-
tally the case from Hedgesville and
vicinity down to Little Georgetown
and the section east of it. There in
many places the hail first cut down the
apples and then the wind uprooted the
trees. SO it may be safely asserted
that half of the best apples in the
county were destroyed last Wednes-
day evening.
AS another evidence of the fury of
the storm Mr.. l.. f. Wilson's house
and barn were both unroofed in the
of Little Georgetown.

both of his legs were SO terribly scald
ed that the physicians believed from
the beginning that to avoid amputa
ton of both limbs was hopeless. One
leg was taken OFF Wednesday and on
Friday last it became necessary to
amputate the other leg to prevent
complications that would have proven
fatal Mr. Grimm who resides with

corning his condition are constant
He was a former resident Of this city

lieving him to be just the man for the
place. He is expected to assume his
luties here by the LIST of October,

institution is for both men and wom-
en-. Whilst Dr. Cook has never had

work, yet his experience and proficien-
ey in the gymnasium fully qualities
him for the position of physical di
