The Chicago News thinks that the
craze for high towers, instituted by
the Paris exposition, will probably con-
tinue and be a conspicuous feature of
the worlds fairs for many years to
come. Chicago will have one a trifie
taller than the Eiffel, and it will be a
triumph of executive skill if not of
originality in invention. "But how
would it do" suggests the News, ..to
reverse the Paris idea and make hole
in the ground half mile deep as a
worlds fair leading feature"

A telegram from Mobile says: The light

ing did great damage in the truck farming
district Tomatoes, cucumbers, squashes,
beans and peas are killed. Potatoes are cut
down and damaged so per cent The cabbage

the vegetables which have been killed do not

that the potatoes will recover in degree
from the effect of the freeze.

The signal office at Washington furnishes
the following special bulletin to the press:
weather reports from Florida and southern
Georgia, indicated the occurrence there on
Monday of the coolest weather on record for
this season of the year. The minimum tenn.
peratures at Savannah and Jacksonville were
80 and 40 respectively which was degrees
below the lowest previous record during the
first days of April. Light frosts occurred
this morning at Savannah and Pensacola,
Fla. and killing frosts at Mobile and Jack
sonyille, which, at the last named station is
about two weeks later than any of which
record has been made. 1t is probable that
throughout the South Atlantic and east gulf
states considerable damage resulted to early
fruit and vegetables from the frosts Of Sun
day and Monday mornings"

CAUGHT THEIR FRUIT AGAIN.

AT Columbus, Miss, the thermometer fell
to 20 degrees Monday morning. There was
heavy frost and considerable ice. This will
be the third year that the fruit in this section
has been killed by frost.

SOUTHERN FROSTs.
Killing Frosts Further South Than
Usual, Even at Jacksonville, Fla.
DAMAGE Is GREAT.

Great anxiety is felt in Atlanta for the fruit
and early vegetable crop. kilograms as to
the effect of the cold of the past few days are
contradictory, but it is not doubted great
damage has been done.

KILLED THEIR TOMATOES.

At jackson. Miss, the heavy frosts oil
Monday morning has very seriously impaired
all unprotected vegetables. Early gardens
are complete loss. Reports from Hazlehurst
and Crystal Springs, the big tomato and
vegetable region, estimates the damage to the
tomato crop at 65 per cent. Many gardeners
had put their plants into the open field, but
in such cases the loss was complete. Fruit
is nearly all in bloom and the damage to it
will be considerable, but just how much can
not be told for several days.

The Farmers Alliance of Mississippi is
beginning an active fight to secure the
election of successors to Senators George
and Walthall who favor the sub-treasury
scheme, and to this end are seeking to-
influence all the members of the order to
vote against the candidates for the legis-
lature not pledged to their demands. The
order in the state is composed almost ex-
clusively OF democrats, and it is proposed
to do their work in the democratic prira-
