Cold weather and the Crops.

CHICAGO, May 13.-From the fifteen
States visited by frost yesterday morn
ing the crops are reported safe. Wheat
and oats escaped uninjured. Corn was
slightly nipped by the cold in few
States, but not enough to occasion
alarm. Small fruits, garden truck and
vegetables have suffered from the frost
in few of the northern States, but no
damage of any consequence is reported
elsewhere. Predictions we're made by
The weather bureau last night that fair
and warmer weather would prevail all
over the western and southwestern
States.
GAYLORD, Mich, May ia raging
northeast snow storm has prevailed
during the night and the snow is ten
inches deep on the level this morning.
LAwToN, Mich, May 13.-It is so
cold that the real damage to the berry
crop will not be apparent until the sun
comes out warmer so as to wilt the
frosted stems.
The cold weather this morning made
thin ice at some points in northern
New York. In the Catskills ice form
ed. 1t is thought the high wind that
prevailed prevented any great damage
to fruit, but a continuance of the low
temperature it is believed will injure its
prospects.
A severe cold wave prevails through
out Missouri and in many places heavy
frosts occurred last night.
A terrific snow storm set in yester-
day at Grayling, Mich. and this morn
ing the snow is Il inches deep.
A heavy and killing frost visited the
northern and eastern portions of Ohio
last night. In some places ice was
formed. Fruit of all kinds was de-
stroyed. Along the Lake Shore grape
growers kept fires burning all night i'll
their vineyards, but the damage done
to the vines is very great. Wheat,
which had commenced heading, is bad
ly injured.
A killing frost fell from midnight
last night and did very extensive
damage in the Pennsylvania grape belt
In the vicinity of Brocton, Westfeld
and Ripley the damage is very general
and will probably take half the crop.
Immense damage was done by frost
at Jamestown, N. Y, last night. All
fruit prospects are ruined. The grape
belt suffered enormously. 1t is esti-
mated that Chautauqua county's loss is
fully two million dollars.
The cold snap Of yesterday did great dam
age to the fruit in the Niaraga, Ont, district,
grapes and peaches being almost entirely de.
stroyed

SECRETARY CARLISLE, for his own
good, ought to stop estimating. The
surplus revenue estimated by him last
February for the current fiscal year has
already developed into adefcit of forty
five million dollars, and, judging from
the receipts so far this month, will in
crease to fifty-fve million before the
expiration of the year. Some of those
he had previously made were just as
incorrect.

Early yesterday morning William H.
Musch, mechanic, was discovered
tied to railroad track in Chicago with
a sack thrown over his head. He
claimed that April % he was sandbag-

man named Rhembow, who has been
running after Musch's wife, is believed
to have committed the act, and he has

ONE OF the Washington newspapers
that profess to be heart and soul OPP
posed to morse racing in Alexandria
county, though it publishes the adver-
tisement of one of the race
tracks there, now that it has
at last learned that the negroes
have large majority in that county,
SAYS the fact that they are held respon-
sible for the election of the county offi-
GERS should induce them to elect men
who will execute the law. Why OF
course it should, but as it has not done
so in the past. it is feared it won't do so
in the future. The only peaceful way
by which the large negro majority in
the county can be induced to vote with
the reputable white people thereof, OF
both political parties, is to buy them,
and those who have heretofore supplied
the money for that purpose have be-
come tired and decline offers to do so
any longer.

A Chance to Save Money.

There is not the slightest reason why you
should not feel we'll and strong. That great
offer of DR. Greene's is proving the best friend
that the weak and delicate people ever had.
A letter sent to him at his office, 81 Temple
Place, Boston, Mass, telling the symptoms
you suffering from, will be Immediately
answed by the Doctor, describing your COM
plant infinitely, and making you understand
perfectly just what ails you. And all this
costs lou nothing. You don't have to leave
your home and you don't have to pay any
doctors fee to learn exactly what your COM
plant is, and how to get well and strong, from
DIR. Greene, the greatest living specialist in
curing nervous and chronic diseases. The
Doctor makes a speciality of curing patients
through his great system of letter correspond
ence and is having wonderful success. Thous-
ands of weak, delicate men and women
writing i'm about their complaints, and are
being permanently cured. 1t was he who dis
covered that world-renowned curative, DR..
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy.
Write the Doctor at once and see what he
says about your complaint. 1t will probably
be the means of your getting back your health

their dingy appearance. Careful at
tention should also be given to the
sanitary condition of the school build
ings and disinfectants should be freely
used. The health of the child is of
paramount Importance.
The coming year will be an import
ant one in the educational matters of
the State and particularly of this town.
The law providing for free text books
to be furnished by the town, goes into
effect in June. I am convinced that
some changes in books will be advan-
tageous, but this should be done only
after careful consultation with the
teachers.
In closing my report, desire to ac-
knowledge my Indebtedness to my
predecessor for much valuable ad-
vice, and also to the teachers and
school officials of the town for the
hearty cooperation they have given
me in my work.
