Crackers Cause Fire

One fire has already been caused by
premature explosion by children of fire
crackers brought here by merchants
for Fourth of July. A tool house near
the city reservoir called out the fire
department Sunday. Marshal Frazier
says that scores of Youngsters are buy
ing frecT ackers and shooting them pro-
miscuously. He threatens to arrest
parents if the practice is not stopped.
While a city ordinance prevents the
firing of the crackers in the city, no
ordinance governs their sale.

Apples Still Slow Sale.

There is still dearth Of apple buy
ers, and while most of the growers
want to sell, there seems no demand for
the fruit. 1t is likely that the BUYERS
are waiting until they can get the ap-
pies at their own figure-and il they
hold off much longer this hope may be
realized in part. Where there is cold
storage available the growers are
storing their apples, this being the case
especially in the Winchester neighbor-
hood. Apples are selling at a good
price in the cities. A subscriber of the
Register in Alexandria writes us this
week that she is paying dollar a peck
for Grimes Golden and sixty cents a
peck for Yorks.
Twelve or fifteen government clerks
from Washington are enjoying an out
ing in the country and at the same
time earning an honest dollar in the
orchards and packing houses OF Z. L..
Coldsborough. The men, some of
whom have been here before, seem
to enjoy the work quite good deal.
H. A. Downs and Edward l.. Rein
hart, who purchased from John w.
Stipp a twelve-acre apple orchard at
the east edge of Shepherdstown, have
finished picking the crop. They got
between LOO and 1900 barrels, OF
which 968 bushels were merchantable
pack. They report having sold several
carloads Of Yorks at $3.50 and S4.75
which went 10 the South, and two car
loads for export to England.
The returns from the apples shipped
to England by E. l.. Goldsbonugh,
Henry Shepherd and others from this
vicinity are more than satisfactory
when offers here are compared. Ex-
cellent prices were obtained for the
apples sent abroad.
Announcement was made last Satur-
day that the Martinsburg Fruit Ex-
change had sold 1900 barrels of York
Imperial apples to the S. P. Calkins
Company, of Memphis, Tenn. at S4.lO
per barrel. Included in this lot were
400 barrels from w. M. Muzzey's or
chards near Shepherdstown. The ex-
change also sold Staymans at $3.50
and Black Twigs at the same price.

and IN his summing up yesterday after
noon Prosecuting Attorney Allen B.

crime is alleged to be committed and
concealed. The case was given to the
jury at 3l5 yesterday afternoon. At
ter Being out for two and a-half hours
the jury returned to court and report
ed that it was impossible to agree UPON
verdict. They were thercupon dis
charged and the defendant was releas-
ed on bail. 1t is said that the iurv
stood six for acquittal and six for con
viction. Dr. Rpssa smiled with much
satisfaction when the report of the
jury was told to her The case will be
continued until the next term of court.

We think that the opponents OF the

IT would mean the levying of six dollars
