FALLON STUDIO. We have just received a in James II. Cross Prominent County Man Diss in Hospital Here. 'Was 62 Years Old and Videly Known. Leaves Wife but no Family.

After ten days of suffering, during which time it was seen that recovery was almost entirely beyond hope, Mr, James Hunter Cross, one of Augusta county's leading citizens, passsed away at 4 o'clock this morning in the King's Daughters' Hospital. Mr. Cross was brought to Staunton on Sunday, November 6th, at 9 p.m., and was placed in the hospital, where on the following morning he underwent a surgical operation for adhesion of the intestines. It was from the first that his case was a bad one and that recovery was doubtful. Born and reared in Augusta county.

Mr. Cross spent practically his entire life at West Augusta. He owned large tracts of land in the county and was quite wealthy and influential. He was well known in Staunton and throughout the county. He was bom 62 years ago.

He leaves his. wife, who was Miss "Laura Frances Cross, a cousin of his, who was also born and raised at West Augusta. For years Mr. Cross had had charge of the mail route between Staunton and Monterey and had only recently established an automobile line to Highland to supplant the old hack line. He had the contract for carrying the mail over this route for long time and had always given the patrons complete satisfaction, He did not operate the mail route himself, but gave most of his time and attention to fanning at which he was very successful.

The funeral will take place from the Methodist church at West 'Augusta about 2 o'clock-Thursday afternoon." Mr. Cross was a thoroughly good and reliable man, and waa, esteemed highly by all who knew him. His death is deeply deplored all through this section, Mr. Watts Will Go To Atlantic City Mr. N.

Watts, at the Augusta Sanitarium, is slowly recovering from the serious burning accident "which befell him at bis home some three weelts-ago. Aff sooo ia: able to travel it is understood that Dr Cat- lett will take him to Atlantic City for treatment at Galen Hall Sanitarium, However, as Mr. Watts is not yet hle to ait UP and is very nervous and weak it may be some weeks before he 9 an take the journey. Uirflinia Laadino On Majslng Giving Virginia a greater average number of bushels of corn to the acre than any other corn-raising state in the Union a table received by Gov ernor Mann from the federal depart ment of agriculture puts the Virginia crop this year at 54,331,000 bushels, which is an increase over the crop of 1909 by over 7,000,000 bushels. The nine leading states are given.

Virginia's average is now 2 1-2 bushels to the acre. Last year the average was 23 1-5, the increase for the year' being consequently 2 3-10 bushels. Over 660,700,000 bushels were raised by the nine states this Last year the total was only giving an increase for 1910 of 158,300,000 bushels. Texas leads with a total crop aggregating 181,093,000 bushels. It averages only 20 1-5 bushels to the acre, however, more than five bushels has than that raised on the average Virginia farm.

North and South Carolina, Mississippi and Louisiana make excellent averages, but only one state approaches Virginia in the average tables. That is Arkansas which this var raised 25 bushels of corn to the acre, being 1 1-2 behind the Old Dominion. In the table showing the average for the last 10 years Virginia' leavea all others far behind, even Arkansas, with an aver age of 23 7-10 her nearest competi tor being Texas which managed to raise 19 bushels.

Try it. fly Oei'ispopers "Let us have printed all the facts, both with reference to crime and other matters, bat let the facts make the newspaper and not -the newspaper the facts," declared State Attorney John E.

W. Wayman befor the In land Press association in Chicaso during an address in which he discussed the value of a newspaper as an investigator of crime and crookedness. He said in part: Some people think that crime and scandal should not be published. Every political grafter would subscribe to this doctrine. The political grafter is a man who believes that picking pockets is a respectable occupation, provided enough men indulge in it at the same time and the newspaperf keep Some like other men, are in favor of the enforcement of the law so long as it doesn't hit any of their friends.

Every burglar claims 1 that the police have it in for him, and every political crook claims 'that somebody is in a conspiracy to hurt him. The light turned on by the newspaper is the best protector of the public. No crook can ever do much damage with the light shining on him. Many a man dreads a prison term less than he dreads the publication of the fact in the newspaper. Some editors are longer on "color ing matter" for the news of the day than they are on braia matter in the editing of the paper.

The honest, patriotic editor is like every other citizen his work adds to the sum total of progress. Some editors run their papers as if they were getting paid in proportion to the number of men that they call thieves. One would think from the vehe mence with which certain propositions are advocated by some neawpapers that the editor was the paid attorney for those whe would profit by the legislation advocated by the news paper. The honest newspaper does mere to prevent crime than all the agencies of government. Old Confederate Vetercn Cared For Mr.
