A killing COLD SNAP.
Great Damage to Crops in Various
Sections,
FRUITS AND BERRIES RUINED

The Frigidity Extended South TO Georgia.
Tennessee aud Kentucky, and tho Tele-
Eraph Brings Encouraging Reports as
TO Prospects for the Future,
INDiANAPoLIs, March 27-The cold wave
which is now sweeping over the country
has probably cut the chances for fruit
crop in this state down to a very low de
gree For several weeks past the weather
has been unusual warm for tho season
and the result was that when the cold
snap came it caught the fruit trees just
ready to burst the swelling buds into
blossoms. 1t is thought that peaches were
to a large extent killed by the severe
weather in January, but such as escaped
that are now certainly gone. Cherries,
plums and apples are almost totally de
stroyed in the central and northern part
of the state A dispatch from English
says that the frost has doubtless destroyed
the apple crop, the buds Of which were
well advanced. All small fruit and
peaches were destroyed weeks ago.

MIDWAY, Ky. March 27.-The cold wave
that reached here yesterday forced the
thermometer to l6 degs Early gardens,
tobacco plants and much of the fruit that
had escaped earlier freezes have been
killed. 1t is believed that the wheat that
is already iointed is greatly injured. Dis
patches from Versailles say that the freeze
killed all the tobacco plants, early gardens
and much Of the fruit. Early wheat is
also damaged Tobacco growers are feel
ing blue as the plants were forward and
unusually fine At Maysville the ther-
mometer dropped to Ia below freezing,
and numerically slaughtered the peaches
and plums The farmers say the wheat
is badly damaged. Cattlettsburg reports
that "A great many fruit trees were in
bloom, which are undoubtedly killed. The
thermometer registered 10 below yester'
day.

A CRANK WITH A GRIEVANCE
Wanted 60 Kill n Mayor for Appointing
Catholic.


LANCASTER, Pa, March 27-Au exciting
episode occurred last evening at the resi-
dence of Mayor-elect Edward S. Smeltz,
which created great CONSERVATION in the
neighborhood Mr. Smeltz has been lying
dangerously i'll since the day following his
election, but during the past week had
been sufficiently recovered to be able to con-
slider his police appointments. Yesterday
he made public his appointments, and
they seemed to give general satisfaction.
In the evening man called at Mr.. Smeltz's
residence and asked to see him. He was
told by one of the ladies of the family that
he was too i'll to see strangers.
The man grew very excited, and said he
must see Mr.. Smeltz on important busi-
ness Again the caller was denied admis-
sion, when suddenly he pulled revolver
from his pocket and exclaimed with an
oath "He appointed Catholic on his po-
lice force, and am going to kill him for
it." The screams of the woman and the
excited demonstrations of the man with
the pistol attracted a large crowd to
whom the crank continued to denounce
the mayor for appointing a Catholic The
man quietly walked away before the ar
rival Of a policeman, but he was subse-
! quently arrested at his home, His name
is Theodore Klinger, 80 years Of age, and
/ he has given the police trouble before.

MARYLAND Penchea Ninned.

BALTIMORE, March 27.-The cool snap
has caused the farmers and fruit growers
of Maryland and Virginia much concern.
Very large crops, especially of peaches,
were expected. The early approach of
warm weather started all branches of ag-
riculture into activity before the usual
time. Dispatches from southern Mary
land, the eastern shore and points in Vir-
ginia are unit in declaring that the frost
has done irreparable damage to strawber
ries and peaches. Throughout Virginia
ice half an inch thick was made on Sun
day night, and fruit trees and early vege
tables have suffered very much. From
many points the peach crop, it is thought
will be total failure.

the blossoms, or a sudden thaw may eXer-

A Fairy Tale OF Science.

Sir Robert Ball, in one OF his popu
lar addresses, described the diamondt
as consisting Of an enormous number
of separate molecules, swinging to and
fro among themselves at rate of some
millions of vibrations second, all in
action together, and quivering with
the shocks of impact. If we had a mi.
croscope which would magnify = mil.
lion times, we might he able to see
this action; all we can do at present is
to believe it. The cause OF the dia
mond's extreme hardness and impenc
trability is that, when steel point is
pressed against it, the active mole
cules batter that point with such
vehemence and rapidity that It cannot
get beneath the crystalline surfnce. In
cutting glass the molecules of the
diamond drive tho molecules OF the
