News of the Fruit.

Little by little the fruit outlook
grows more encouraging and the droop-
ing spirits OF many fruit men have
been greatly revived by later inspec-
tion of their orchard properties. Es-
pecially good are the reports from the
Apple Pie Ridge belt at some two miles
along the eastern side of the mountain.
The Northern Virginia Orchard Com
pany and the Pioneer Orchard Com
pany, in that section, are two to give
out positive statements that they will
have good crops. On the eastern side
of Round Top Mountain not only are
apples in strong evidence, but peaches,
pears, ETC., and even grapes. The
Wilderness Orchard is expected to pro-
duce twice as many Yorks this season
than 1t did two years ago.-Martins-
burg Journal of Monday.
The biggest crop of York Imperials
ever produced in Berkeley county is
expected by leading fruit growers OF
this section. This was the emphatic
prediction made this morning by sew
eral prominent growers. They admit
that In many sections OF Berkeley coun-
ty the earlier and fancy varieties suf-
tered heavily because of the freeze and
froStS, but extract considerable con.
ISOLATION from the evident fact that
lorks not only escaped, but will be
more FrGiuse than ever. Yorks are
eagerly sought by New York buyers and
also BY those in other sections of the
country. Las. season Yorks sold for
top-notch prices, fair average OF
5000 barrel being received by grow
ers who sold by the hundred pounds
and no: in the barrel.-Martinsbu
Journal of Tuesday.
f. l.. GoldsborOugh, leading fruit
grower of Shepherdstown, expressed
the opinion on Tuesday MAT the dam
age to the Yorks is very serious in this
section. The big freeze two weeks ago
killed practically all the apples except
the Yorks and Mr.. Goldsborough says
that the frosts during the latter part
Of last week did much additional dam
age. He estimates the highest prob
able yield of Yorks at from Is to 25 per
cent. Other fruit growers in this
neighborhood agree with this belief
There will be very few apples in this
section if the Yorks are hurt as bad
as they are thought to be.
In a statement issued on Tuesday
H. Clay DeGrange, president OF the
Frederick County Fruit Growers AS
s5ciation, says that Frederick county,
Va, will have a commercial apple croI
of 250,000 barrels. He says that rhere
ought TO be 80 per cent crop OF
York lmperials, with some Jonaihans,
Staymans and Ben Davis.

Snakes Are Hungry.

VIM. II. Johnson, Of Terrapin Neck,
was in town on Monday, looking first
rate after the winters Information
He reports that the snake season has
opened up, and already several big
blacksnakes have been killed on his
place. The snakes there are especial
ly fond of hens eggs, and he has been
fooling them heretofore by feeding
them on china nest eggs, which when
swallowed make the snakes top heavy
and thus easily disposed of. The sup
ply Of china eggs has been used up, and
Mr.. Johnson, will be thankful for old
porcelain doorknobs, with which he
thinks he can deceive the snakes.

Ieit tne place, two ladies being in an
especial haste and declaring that thev
would never return.
John L. Lewis, president of the
United Mine Workers of America. was
among the visitors to Charles Town
last week, and was in conference with
union leaders. He issued public
statement, in which he declared that
the issue IN the present trial is whether
or not the working man has the right
10 organize, and he laid the blame for
the present prosecutions on the coal
operators, who do not wish their en-
ployeeS to be unionized.
In opposition TO the views of Mr.
Lewis, the other side quoted the words
OF Governor Morgan, of this State !.
Il have not participated and am not
interested IN the program of the United
Mine WorkerSSof America for extend
ing their organization into the non-un-
ION coal fields OF West Virginia." said
Governor Morgan. 81 have not par
ticlpated and am not interested in the
ehorts OF the coal operators in the non
union fields to oppose unionization. |
am interested, however, both as an
oticlal and as a citizen in the mainte-
nance of law and preservation of or
der, and all the force at my command
VIII be used 10 require those engaged
III labor strife, whether operator or
INNER, union or non-union, TO obey the
laws of the State"
In these sentences the Governor of
West Virginia has summed up the de-
termination to end the state of unrest.
marked by murders, dynamitinss, as.
sauItS and intimidation, which has con-
tlnued for years in the mining districts.
these trials represent the attempt Of
the State government to fix response
bility at this time on one body of men
for the most formidable of the many
armed demonstrations which have TAX
EN- place in West Virginia. Those of
the people of the State who have no
personal interest in either side to the
controversy, but who are Jealous OF the
good name of our commonwealth, want
10 see the truth brought out, RESPONSE
bility fixed and the guilty punished, re-
sardless OF who may be affected, whcth-
er capitalist or laboring man. There is
strong element, therefore, that has
backed Governor Morgan in his stand.
In the view of these citizens, the is
sues between the coal operators and
the union coal miners dwindle into in
significance in comparison with the is
sue as to upholding constituted author
ity in the public interest.

tale has taken a new turn and the
happy ending is in sight.

Heart disease, strange form, the
doctors said.
For weeks she lay in a hospital

~ was Sonia, for she found that her
village friends, the poets and paint

smoke rings with her in cellar and
garnet. had deserted her.
On the walls were none of the gay
tapestries, the paints and the
sketches in which she delighted. The
sounds which came to her were omi-

laughter which to her had constituted
life.
Sonia is only in her twenties.

But now doctors say that Sonia has

MANY VISIT HOME OF RILEY

indianapolis, Sept. 12.-Hundreds
of persons from Indiana, Illinois,
Ohio and other states have visited
the home Of the late James Whitcomb
Riley, famous poet, since the place
was opened as a public shrine on
April IS, according to register
which is being maintained. Miss
Kate Kindell, who for many years
was the housekeeper for Mr.. Riley, is
in charge Of the home. Approx
mately two thousand persons have
visited the shrine to date, it was said.
All the elegant furnishings of the
home as selected by Mr.. Riley are to
be seen at the house. Visitors are
especially interested in the bedroom,
where the poet did most of his work.
The home is maintained as a shrine
under the direction of the Riley Me
morial association, which now is pro-
ceeding with the erection Of the Ri

SONIA, OF GREENWICH VILLAGE, WINS
LONG DRAWN-OUT FIGHT FOR LIFE

J Freud.
Sonia-she has a last name, but in
/ the village she is known only as So
nia--is a Bohemian. Thousands of
ut-of-towners who have visited the
village have seen her slipping from
table to table in the fantastic tea
rooms which the ciIlage boasts, ca
joling the merrymakers into buying
a package of her cigarettes.
Sonia is versatile. Now she would
make little money at one thing, at
other times at another. Sometimes
she would make nothing at all.
Once she went to Boston and there
staged Bohemian dance largely at
tended by Harvard undergraduates.
Arrangements went a bit awry, the
dance was not wholly a success, and
the police reserves had to be called.
A few months ago she opened a lit
tie shop of her own in the village. To
her stock of cigarettes she added
erudite tones and fanciful batiks.
Then she was stricken.
Her acquaintance tried TO find
her family. They were ali dead, she
said. She smiled mysteriously when
ever she was asked whence she had
hailed. She just appeared one day in
the village. Tradition has it that her
homeland was Russia.
ut isn't so much that I'm down
and out, she said bravely. It's that
the village folks don't come to see
me.
Eyes, I know the village is away
up in Proyincetown and Crotor. But
they might send me word or have
dropped in to see me before they
