beaten and that the present cur

That England has sent 10000

Ireland, and that they are in hiding

body with their knives.

OF food which will be taken out of

LUcIoUs STRAWBERRIES ARE ON

Arrived in Smyrna Market Last Week
and Selling From l5c to 2Oc Quart
The outlook for the strawberry crop
is not promising and it is thought it
will be very short and the prices low.
While the crop is about from a week
to ten days earlier than last year, it
will not last long. Many growers re-
port that on account of the cool
weather the berries have been damaged
by beetle and other insects, which
have in the past annoyed the growers,
but were worse this year than last.
A few berries arrived in Smyrna
market last week and are selling from
15c to zoe a quart. Down the State
when the first berries began to arrive
they sold at around $4. so to So. 25
32-quart crate. They did not sell at
such good prices last week, but the
market has remained steady. They
are bringing from 1925 TO 81. so, as
to quality.

BRENFoRD BOY MEETS DEATH

Being Run Over by a Big Roller
When the Horses Ran Away
Edward Rusby, aged II, of Bren-
ford, who was employed at odd times
by B. N. Dawley on the Springs farm,
met an untimely death Monday by
being run over by a roller. He was
a bright little fellow and liked to do
odd chores for Mr.. Dawley. He was
driving a roller from Mr.. Dawley's to
the Severson farm when the horses
took fright and started to run awav.
The lad unable to hold the horses was
thrown off under the heavy roller and
crushed to death. The accident was
shocking to the people of Brenford and
all who knew the little boy. Edward
was son of John A. Rusby, who
works on the Railroad, and like most
boys of his age was ambitious to make
his own spending money. His death
coming so suddenly was a severe blow
to his parents who have the sympathy
of the BrenfoTd community. His
remains were taken in charge and his
funeral will take place tomorrow
afternoon at 2 p. M, with interment
in Odd Fellows cemetery, Smyrna.

way to liberty out of the guardhouse

were: James Martin, arrested on the
charge of deserting; Sinton Ash, about
whom little is known; Schaffer first
name unknown), sent from Media,
Pa. charged with deserting from the

name unknown), sent here by military
guard at Chester. On account of over
crowded conditions at the guardhouse,
the men had been permitted to sleep
in the corridor. and got out by saw
ing two bars of the corridor window
and eluded the sentries. Ash was
recaptured Saturday night at Odessa.
He says he was not in the plot to
escape, but was asleep, and when he
awoke found the bars had been sawed
away. He, therefore, decided to
seek his liberty.
