MIR. Scully In Exciting Episode.

Cornelius D. Scully, who is we'll
known in Shepherdstown, where he
has fruit farm and summer home,
figured in thrilling episode last Fri
day night in Pittsburg. Mr.. Scully
is lawyer in Pi;tsburg, with Of
fees in the Frick building. His fami-
ly had come to Shepherdstown to spend
week or two, and he was temporarily
alone in the house at night. the house.
keeper usually leaving about six
o'clock in the evening. Friday night
Mr.. Scully went home. and as he en-
tered the hall he was a bit surprised
to hear a sharp voice call out, "Hands
up" He was confronted by two mcr
who had packed up silverware, cloth
ing and other valuaSles in a couple
of big bundles Instead OF obeying
the command, even though it wa
backed UP by wicked looking pistol
Mr.. Scully jumped al the burglars
He tackled the fellow with the gun, ar
as they fought in the hallway and out
through the front door The other thicf
bolted out the back way. The mar
who had been seized by Mr.. Scully
made desperate efforts to get away,
and finally as they struggled acros'
the porch and down the. steps he man
aged to break loose. He ran off at
full speed, with MIR. SculIy at his heels
shouting for the police. The stree,
was almost deserted and the few per.
sons who Witnessed the fight failed tc
give anv help. AS Mr.. Scully was
aoou. ready TO grab the burglar again.
the fellow began to shoot. The frs;
shot went wild. but the second bullet
struck the plucky lawyer in the knee
Two more shots failed to halt M
Scully, but the wound impeded bic
progress and the thief soon outran him
and made good his escape.
A policeman then appeared and as.
sisted Mr.. Scully back to the house
He was afterward taken to hospital
where his injury was attended to. Thf
bullet had struck him in the knee.
but fortunately the bone was not Sc.
riously injured The bullet was ex-
tracted, and he is now getting along
quite comfortably, with no apprehen-
sion of serious result. Mrs. Scully
was notified of the affair and left
Saturday morning for Pittsburg. Mon
day E. L. Goldsborough took the chill
dren home. He saw Mr.. Scully and
reports that he is getting along all
right Mr.. Scully's friends here are
gratifled TO know that he came OIL SO
well-some Of them would like TO see
him have fair chance at the thief
weapons barred.

Fruit Not All Killed.

We were pleased to meet in town
tins morning. in company with H. c..
Marshall, one Of our prominent apple
growers, ]. r. Wilson, the new man
ager of the Martinsburg Fruit Ex-
change. Mr.. Wilson has visited a
number OF orchards in Jefferson ane
Berkeley counties the past week, and
he expresses the opinion that if condi-
tions continue favorable from now on
there may be perhaps a half crop OF
apples. The freeze last week did
vast damage. but not all the buds were
killed, and il there is no further freeze
and the May or June drop is not alb.
normal, there will be pretty fair
yield Of some varieties. Reports from
various sections are to the effect that
Yorks are rs per cent safe, Bens 25 r.
SO per cent, Winesaps only slightly
damaged, Grimes 70 per cent frozen,
and early varieties seriously damaged.
Cherries and plums are reported TO be
practically wiped out. though some
trees still show healthy bloom.
c. ]. Miller, our largest peach grow
er, reports heavy damage in his
orchards, but he is expecting to have
a partial crop, as some Of the buds
resisted the freeze and appear in good
condition.

Thieves Busy in Berkeley.

Last SUNDAY morning while Mr.. and
Mrs. Joseph Walper. Ir., who live on
the Oscar Sperow farm in Berkeley
county, about four miles west of Shep-
herdstown. were at church their home
was entered by thieves and plundered
OF many valuable articles Among the
things stolen were S1OO Liberty
bend. solid siIverware and various
small articles that suited the fancy OF
the thieves. AS soon as Mr.. and Mrs
Walper returned home they found their
home had been robbed, and they M
once notified the authorities, but so fan
no clue seems to have been found that
points to the guilty parties. No one
seems to have noticed any stranger
about the place. though the house is
right along the public road. The
thieves had brought shotgun from an
upper room and loaded il, apparently
intending to use Il il they were caught
in their unlawful act.
This was the second robbery Of the
same sort within short time In Berke-
ley county. The previous Sunday tho
store and dwelling OF J. S. Barnes at
Marlowe was entered while the famil
was at church. and money and goods to-
the value of $500 were taken.
