Suffering from Blight.

Reports from practically all parts
of the state are to the effect that
fruit trees of all kinds are suffering
fearfully from the deadly blight.
Not only is this deadly disease con.
fined to pear trees, as has been to a
great extent the case heretofore, but
apple, peach and cherry trees are
coming in for their share of the dis
ease.
No remedy appears to be avail
able except to prune out the affected
limbs which in many instances
means the entire foliage of the
growing trees. Unless some means
of combating the disease is ad-
vanced, grave fears are entertained
not only for the present years crops
but future crops.

SUPREME COURT
SUSTAINS CITY
Holds Municipality Has to
Regulate Vehicles for
Public Safety.

Sustaining all sections Of the recently
enacted jitney bus ordinance, requiring
IS 900 bond, $50 and t75 license and Al
ing OF routes over which the cars would
run, the supreme court announced unani.
nous decision yesterday morning at
Charleston. City Attorney Fred n.
Livezey. for the city, and Attorneys
Daugherty s. Riggs, for the jitney asso-
citation, received copies of the decree.
The decision was written by Judge Pof.
fenbarger.
The validity OF the ordinance was test
ed through habeas corpus proceeding,
which M. I. Dickey driver was arrested
that test case might be instituted. 1t
is probable the fine assessed against Dick
ey will be suspended by the police court
since both city and jitney attorneys
agreed to the arrest.
1t is understood from drivers that sew.
eral will put up bonds of t6, 900 and 80.
cure the required license.
The commissioners, commenting on the
outcome OF the case, say that only re-
sponsible persons will now be found driv-
ing passenger buses. The city authori-
ties are well satisfied with the decision.
According to the court Of appeals de-
cision "a chapter provision empowering
municipal corporation to grant. refuse
or revoke licenses to the owners of ve-
hicles kept for hire and to subject them
to such regulations as the interest and
convenience of the inhabitants thereof,
in the opinion of the municipal authori-
ties, may require delegates to the corpo-
ration full legislative power over such
vehicles"
Chasing the jitney bus as a common
carrier, the decision says that the state
legislature "may prescribe the number,
character, routes. rates and hours of
service of common carrying vehicles on
the highways, or delegate snch power to
municipal corporations
The decision holds that the ordinance
is not discriminatory as claimed by the
jitney bus association Huntington Her

MuddieSt of Rivers.

The Missouri is the muddiest
river in the Mississippi valley; it
carries more silt than any other
large river ia the United States
except possibly the Rio Grande aDd
the Colorado. For every square
miles of country drained it carries
downstream 381 tons of dissolved
and suspended matter each year.
In other words, the river gathers
annually from the country that it
drains more than 1913, 900 tons of
silt and soluble matter, some of
which it distributes over the food
plains below to form productive
agricultural lands most of which
finds it's way at last to the Gulf
of Mexico.
1t is by means of data of this
kind that geologists compute the
rate at which the lands are being
eroded away. 1t has been shown
that Missouri river ia lowering the
land drained by it at the rate OF
/ foot in 6,036 years. The sur
face of the United States as q
whole is now being worn at the
rate of foot IN 9,120 years. Il
has been estimated that if this
erosive action of the streams ot
the United States could have beer
concentrated on the Isthmus oil
Panama it would have dug in "a
days the canal which has just beer

NAIL REMOVED
WITH APPENDIX
Remarkable Circumstance
Discovered at kessIer
Hospital During
Operation.

Lodged in his body for nearly
twenty years, a cut iron nail, of q
type now obsolete, was removed
with the appendix when an opera
tion was performed by Drs. Kessler
and Vinson al the Kessler hospital
Monday evening upon p. II.
Phelps, 80, of Parkersburg, w. Va.
The nail was imbedded in the ap.
pendix and it was believed that
Phelps had swallowed it when very
young.
The presence of similar OBJ
struction imam appendix is cir
cumstance unrecorded in medical
history.
The nail measured one-half an
inch in length. DIR. Kessler ex-
planned following the operation that,
in the absence of any opening from
other organs to the appendix, the
nail must have penetrated the ap-
pendix by slow process of absorp-
tion.
Phelps became sensible of an ex-
tremely painful sensation in the re-
gion of his appendix about two
weeks ago. He consulted a physi.
clan who suspected appendicitis but
did not advise an immediate opera
lion.
Phelps left Parkersburg for Hunt
ington to act in the capacity of best
man at the marriage of Miss Julia
Walker of this city to Walter Ropp
here today. On his way from Par
ker.burg to Huntington he became
so violently i'll that his removal to
the Kessler hospital followed his
arrival here Immediately.
The operation involving the re-
moval of the nail was successfully
performed. The patient is expected
to recover spee1ily.-Huntington
