CHICAGO'S ROSY DREAMS.
The Great Influx Of Money Upon
Which She is Counting.

dispatch says that Chicago is beginning
to realize in practical and substantial way
upon its investment in the Columbian Ex-
position. In the period embraced within the
last 100 days of the Fair it is estimated that
sum ranging from 1920 900, 900 to $3.50, O0O.-
OOG will be brought to Chicago and left
there.
The estimate is based on the assumption
that between July 1 and November 1--123
days-the average number of visitors in Chi
cago above normal will be from 100 900 to
125, 600, and that they will not spend less than
SO day each while sojoining there. On
that basis the amount spent daily will ag-
gregate 81 ,0O0.0 900 to $3.50. 000 for 1913
days, $4,000, 900 to $154, 600, 900.
The city is already experiencing the relief
that follows the receipts Of liberal sums of
money from all quarters. All theatres re-
port an immense business, Notwithstanding
the great show at Jackson Park. The bust
ness streets are crowded with great. moving
armies of men, women and children, and the
great emporiums of trade are doing the larg-
est business in their history.

HAVOC BY HAIL.
Great Damage Done to Crops in the
Schuylkill Valley.

Reading, Penn, and vicinity was visited
by hail storm, which, for destructiveness,
eclipsed all previous storms of the kind since
1866. The Reading forge was flooded to
depth of four feet and the fires had to be
drawn and the works shut down. Street-car
horses became unmanageable from the pelt-
ing hail and the drivers were compelled to
etop the cars and seek shelter. Many
cellars were flooded. Grain. corn, oats,
flower gardens, grapes and other fruits were
stripped of like leaves. The vineyards on
Mount Penn are completely ruined and the
owners do not expect TO obtain more than
five per cent. of the crop.
A severe hail storm also passed over the
northern part of Philadelphia between and

diameter fell for fully fifteen minutes break

Justice Samuel Blatchford, Of the United
States Supreme Court, died at his cottage on
Greenough place, at Newport, r. l., a few
evenings ago. Death had seemed probable
for three days, but it was not till p. m. that
the family realized that 1t was at hand. From
that hour Judge Blatchford sank rapidly
passing away as II asleep. Mrs. Blatchford
and Mr.. Appleton Blatchford, tho deceased
jurist's only son, and Doctor +. Il. Rankin:
his physician were with him when he died.
Three weekspbefore he received two slight
paralyric shocks, which his physician
described as partial loss OF motion. The
shock affected his system generally, and
left him very weak, but in full possession OF
his faculties. Justice Blatchford had been a
Newport cottager for twenty-five years and
was regarded as one OF the most distinguished
OF its summer residents.
Samuel Blatchfor was born in New York
City On March 9th, 1920. He entered ColuI1-
bia College very young and graduated at the
age Of seventeen, showing promise of what
his future career would be. He received the
degree of LID. from Columbia College in
1867. Judge Blatchford then became private
secretary to Governor William H. Sew
he was admitted to the Bar. and began
practising in New York City, removing
to Auburn in 1916. He then entered into a
law partnership with Governor Seward, and
came back to the city in 1854. About this
time Judge Blatchford began publish
ing his decisions in the United States
Circuit Court. which won him 4 great
deal of fame in legal circles. His career was
established from that time, for ne was ap-
pointed Judge Of the District Court of
the Southern District of New York in
May, 1867, by President Johnson, and
on March 4, 1873, President Hayes
showed his appreciation of the brill
liant lawyer by appointing him Cir
cult Judge of the Second Judicial Court.
His last promotion occurred on March %,
1882 when President Arthur made him AS
sociate Justice of the Supreme Court OF the
United States. Judge Blatchford was one of
the ablest iurists in this country, and his loss
will be deeply deplored by the entire Amerj-
can Bar.
