LINCOLN PEACHES
WIN FAME ABROAD
Delicious Fruit Finds Ready
Market in Many States
200 Crates Daily.

Il Messrs. Percy Buie and Nathaniel
White Of Soegaard, Lincoln County,
are well pleased at the success of
their operations in peach raising and
marketing, and their fame has gone
abroad to the extent thatJ. Ed. Run,
state demonstration agent has asked
them for a report.
The shipping of peaches began
May first, day on which a light
frost was reported here, and is ex-
pected to last about three weeks
longer. This week about 200 crates
day are being shipped at an aver
age price of $3.50 per crate of four
baskets.
An acre. these growers say, will
produce from one hundred to six
hundred crates when properly cared
for.
Mr.. Buie has about 13 acres in
peaches and Mr.. White, s, and they
cooperate in every way, in their
business. A large packing shed is
part Of their equipment, and Mr..
Buie expects to add to it a Duplex
Power spray. In the fall, 500 peach
trees of standard market varieties
will be planted on Mr.. Buie's place,
and Mr.. White is also planning to
increase his orchard.
The Soegaard peach growers have
established reputation for fruit of
high quality which they take@great
care to maintain, and in consequence
md 1t impossible to I'LL the great
number of orders sent them.
Although they could sell the en-
tire crop to one or two buyers, they
think it best to maintain a clientele,
and ship widely, some of the firms be-
/ ing located in New Orleans, Jackson,
Joliet, Ill.,; Corpus Christi, Houston,
and Ell Paso, Tex, Washington, D. c.,
Detroit and st. Louis.
To show how the peaches are ap-
preciated Mr.. Buie tells this little
story A Jackson firm ordered a
number of crates, then wished to
cancel the order, but in the mean
time the peaches had been shipped.
This firm later wrote that the peach
es sent were so pleasing to their pa
tronage that they had no difficulty
whatever in disposing of them, and
placed other orders.
The peach industry was founded
at Soegaard, whose first settlers were
Danes, by Mr.. C. v. Rain, of that
nationality, who occupied the farm
upon which Mr.. Buie lives, and sue
cessfully operated fine peach or
chard, with Mr.. White working un-
der his direction, until his removal
to Florida several years ago. At
that time the management of the
farm passed into Mr.. Buie's hands
and he has continued and developed
the resources he found there.
While peaches receive first consid-
eration On the Ruie place, everything
that contributes to the "live at
home Blan is raised there and 1t is
considered fne example of pro-
gressive farming.

THE SHERIFF LOSES
A STEADY BOARDER
Sawed Way Out at Midday in
Plain View of Colored
Residents.

Sheriff R. C. Applewhite lost
steady boarder from the county Jail
yesterday at noon in the person of
w. L. Cephus, who was being held
pending the action of the coming
grand jury for the robberies of the
Brookhaven Drug Co., and several
other business places several months
ago.
Cephus sawed his way out from the
second story, saving through one of
the heavy bars next to one that had
already had treatment from another
occupant some time back who failed
to make his getaway on account of
discovery by the sheriff, 1t being ne
cessary to bend two bars out of the
way in order for persons body to
pass through.
Cephus after saving through and
bending the one bar necessary to let
himself out, attached rope made
from a sheet and let himself down
to the ground and disappeared and
is still at large.
Louis Case, the only other occu-
pant of the jail, stated to the sheriff
afterwards that he was asleep at the
time of the escape and did not know
anything about what was going on.
Case called to Hon. H. Cassidy from
the jail window when he found out
what had happened and Mr.. Cassidy
notified the sheriff at once.
A peculiar coincidence with re-
ference to the escape is the fact that
a whole block Of negro houses is just
opposite the window from which Ce-
phus went out, in fact the sun was
shining right into the window which
is in plain view Of the occupants of
the colored dwellings who are always
on the front porches, but from all
accounts there was not single one
of these dwellers who Saw or heard
anything out of the ordinary going
on around the jail.
Mr.. Applewhite did not call for
kthe bloodhounds, It being his belief
from continuous dealings with such
prisoners that he viii be able to a.
gain have Cephus In hand before the

BROTHER ISAIAH is
NOW IN LOS ANGELES
Thousands Crowd About the
Aged Figure to See His
Alleged Miracles.

Los Angeles, Cal.-Crowding a.
bout a gaunt. bearded. aged man
standing on the clipped lawn of a
park past which scurry street car and
limousine, daily assemble more per-
sons than attend any theatre, church
or school in the city to watch him
evoke the miracle of faith in heal
ing.
He is the self-styled Brother Isa-
iah whose exhortations and blessings
daily work the marvel of restored
health and trinity, as scores attest.
The crowds of intermingled scoffers
and believers frequently number
from 10000 to IL, 2,OOO-eating hot
dogs" and picnic lunches while they
edge patiently forward within touch
of the mans hands.
Save for these marks of modern
day, the park where Brother Isaiah
appears might be some brown hill
side of ancient Judea where folk Of
other custom and tongue fiocked a.
bout the One whom this miracle"
man processes to follow.
Each day from o'clock in the
afternoon until past midnight, Bro
ther Isaiah attends the. afflicted. He
asks no money. He asks no questions.
To all, rich and poor, doubter and
believer, he proffers the inexplicable
curative virtue of faith. as he pro-
pounds it. Some he annoints with
oil. To all he says, According to
your faith, let it be done unto YOU"
Many have gone away apparently
rid of their infirmity, even to blind
ness and epilepsy.

that he was called to his present
