MILFORD GRANGE

A pleasing musical and literary pro
gram was rendered last Saturday to
rather a small audience. AS buster
times come, many find it difficult to
attend Grange, but it is to be hoped
that all will plan to be present on
April y, as Prof. Evans of FELTON, will
give an address on that day which will
be well worth making a special effort
to hear.
Next Saturday tomorrow some in
teresting questions will come up for
discussion. Try to be present to hear
them.

WINTER ARRIVES WITH SPRING

After waiting for several months
for real taste of winter, the people OF
lower Delaware were given a taste OF
winter weather Thursday night of last
week. Following a rainy day the tenn
perature dropped rapidly and when
the citizens of this community awOke
Friday morning they were surprised TO
see snow on the ground. For several
nights following ice formed to a con-
siderable thickness. Tuesday morn
ing snow was falling when the people
awOke but it did not last long.
Reports from the many different
fruit growing districts vary as to the
probable damage to fruit because Of
this bareback of winter Owing to
the exceedingly warm weather for
weeks past the buds have advanced
materially and the plum trees were in
full blossom. 1t is said by some grow
ers that they have been badly hurt.
Peach growers are divided in the sew
eral sections as to the probable dam
age done to that fruit. One grower
stated on Tuesday morning of this
week that regardless of the fact that
he had kept firepOts burning all night
-lVAuay thS DuuS were d mass OF ice
Tuesday morning. He was very pessi-
misticl and stated that as far as his
orchards are concerned his crow will
be ruined. Other growers advanced
the belief that the high winds had
blown the buds dry and that the dam
age caused by the freeze would be very
small.
In the districts where the land is
light, many farmers state that the
heavy winds have blown the sand over
their pea fields and that the young and
tender plants have been cut off even
with the ground In the districts where
the soil is heavier this condition does
not exist.

FIRES LIGHT SKY AT NIGHT

Each spring the marshes along the
bayshore and rivers are burned over

may be seen during the month of April

flames which cover miles in area

value of the veins of anthracite in
this section.
~" Best Grades
1t was said by some of them to-
day that the Lykens Valley coal
fields should have a good rating be-
cause the coal from that region
brings at least forty cents q ton
more on the open market than the
other grades of anthracite.
Mr.. Davies also testified yesterday
before the Investigators, giving the
estimates and figures secured in his
investigations. He declared all of
his statements were conservative.
He valued the coal fields in the
Schuylkin region a t. $4,000, ,000, 900
for taxable purposes. The present
assessment is only S25, ,000, 900 and
the coal operators are protesting
against any increase. (Er Wy,
Although no definite estimate has
been made of the coal field valua-
ton which may be assured for Dau-
phin county, it is anticipated by
many that the increase will be a
tremendous one. DR.. Davies and his
men have been working for weeks
collecting complete data to support
any advance in assessment which
may be suggested. Regular reports
of this work have been made to the
county officials. but no statement
will be made until the final report
lis received probably late, next month.

FIRST ARREST MADE
IN STEELTON MURDER
TContinued from First Page. ]


receipt in Yiddish, and more than
nee loud wrangling had been heard
from his little store in the adJoln-
ing apartment, a barbershop owned
nv John Fields, who also owns the
grocery store.
Strangely enough, Mr.. Fields read.
ing the paper at o'clock last nlght
did not hear the shot and 1t was SO
subdued that the police believe II
had a silencer. But a colored woman
washing in the cellar distinctly
heard it and heard the body fall.
also heard high words saying:
"If you don't give me what's coming,
You'll get yours"
Saw Three Disappear
The young girl who happened TO
ne passing just when the shot sounu,
ed, saw that the door was open anu
saw three men run out ana disap-
pear in a gully just across Adams
street. AS all lights were dark II was
an easy thing to escape, put sne
caught one good look and her testl-
mony may result, in Identifying one
of the murderers.
Not in years has Steelton been
agitated SO completely by an out
and-out murder. The Southern negro
element is blamed for much OF the
crime that has flourished and 1t was
recalled to-day that recently eight
holdups took place on a payday at
the merchants mill and every robber
got what he sought. In come weeks
a holdup was registered every even
ing.
The first person to sound the
aalrm of the murder of Lacob was
Mrs. Margaret Davies, who lives
nearby and who was well acquaint-
ed with the family. Mrs. Lacob died
some months ago of flu, and her
daughter. girl of II, noted for
having the most beautiful hair of
any girl in Steelton, along with her
two brothers, went to South Caro-
lima to live with relatives. The mer-
chant lived alone and his little store
was sort of bank for odd persons
who gave him their money to take
care of. He was raided about three
years ago and threats were heard
from time to time by persons who
claimed they were imposed upon.
Murder of undetermined nature
was the result of Coroner Bckinger's s
preliminary investigation and an in
quest will be held later. Mrs. Davies
will be- a witness, being the first
to walk In just after the tragedy.
The victim was still breathing and
Mrs. Davies asked: who struck
you?" She felt his pulse and then
gave the alarm. Curiously enough,
she relates as she was entering the
door which stood open, outside were
colored man and woman. The
woman was saying: 'I believe some
one has been in there killing Lacob.'
With that she and the man hur-
ried on.
Chief of Police Longnecker found
$4,000 in cash on Jacobs body and
other moneys about the store; so ii
Is not likely the murderers were
after this. The. plausible theory is
some patron felt he had been
cheated in his banking system. and
took revenge. ~
