MISFORTUNE IN CLOUDS.
New Jersey Family Was Visited by
Series of MIshaps.

New York world.
Francis Fielder who lives at Turkey, a
small village near New Brunswick, N.
J., is wondering why misfortune is per-
sistently pursuing him and his family.
Recently his son Edward fell from a
scaffolding at Long Branch and was
so badly hurt that for a long time his
life was despaired Of.
Then Mrs. Fielder slipped from the
stoop of her home, breaking her collar
bone and several ribs.
The next day Mr.. Fielder slipped on
some loose hay and fell out of the NOW
He was shaken up SO badly that he
had to keep in hisabed for several days.
Next a favorite horse died of CHAMBERS,
and all his live stock had to be quaran-
tined and the outbuildings disinfeceed.
While this was being done message
was received from a son, Ebert, at AS
bury Park, announcing that he had lost
a horse by theft
The younger son, Garfield, was the
next victim Of the family Nemesis He
was riding his wheel to work when he
ran into a chicken and was thrown
against a post, having a collar bone
broken and shoulder dislocated.
Now that all the members of the family
and most of the live stock have been
victims of misfortune in one way or an
ether, Mr.. Fielder hopes the fates have
been satisfied and that brighter days are
about to dawn.

but remained an officer in the com
pan1es. Miss Asch was wonderfully de-
voted to him, and never seemed to tire
OF doing things to ease his pain or to
make him more comfortable. For a wear
before his death he had been almost like
a child. 1t is related that on one occa-
sion 1t took six minutes to get him off a
train to the station platform at Charles
town. Miss Asch, through all this, was
as faithful to him as she could have been
to brother.
Now that the end has come, she is GER
tafnly Well repaid. She is given the Sen

two brick residences. Nos. ga and GAG
North Seventeenth street, Philadelphia.
She is also given forty lots at Wissan-
om1ng. near the saw works, and a small
tract of land in Tacony that will increase
With the houses she gets the contents,
pictures, bric-a-brac and expensive fur
niture. She owns carriages, horses, cat
tie and thoroughbred pets of various
Under this remarkable will Miss Asch
IS given property worth probably $100, 600.
She also is to receive $4,000 from the in
come of the rest of the estate. prOyi-
sion leaving the residue of the estate to
charities was not signed by Mr. DisstOn,
So on Miss Asch's death, her relatives
may claim it The estate is very likely
a half million-dollar one.
Miss Asch is now at Seneca Point. She
Is middle-aged, with hair slightly gray.
Her hair Is usually thrown back from
her face in pompadour style. She is
plump, of good figure, and can boast no
wrinkles. When she talks she smiles and
shows her white teeth Her face is full
of expression. She would be especially
fetching dressed in mourning.
Miss Asch has announced that she will
handle the great property she has been
given just as Mr.. Disston would have
handled it himself She will live at Sen
eca Point in summer. Now her mother
and her brothers and sisters are with her
there In winter she will be in Philadel-
phia. She will keep up the gifts to char
Ity. just as she is sure Mr.. Disston
would have done.

rHoUsAND-POUND TURTLE.
Fights strenuOusIy Against Capture
and Breaks a Mans Leg.


New York Herald.
A monster turtle, weighing about LOCO
pounds, and of the variety called Heath
er-back" or "rubber-back,' by deep-sea
fishermen, was received at the Fulton
fish market yesterday, along with a
strange yarn regarding its capture.
The big turtle measured about six feet
from the tip of its nose to the end Of its
tail 1t had no shell, but the skin Of the
broad back which was Of dull black,
looked and felt like rubber.
The big creature was caught by the
crew of tine fishing schooner Lottie S.
Morton, off the coast Of Long island, not
far from Westhampton.
The "leather-back" got foul of the
flshermen's seines. 1t was harpooned
and a four-bour chase ensued, the turtle
twice breaking four-lnch line attached
to the harpoon. The turtle was eventu-
ally hauled on board the schooner, where
it fought fercely for its liberty.
Sixteen men were required to haul the
turtle aboard. They had a struggle with
the big creature, during which 1t broke
one mans leg and severely bit another
on the hip. A harpoon thrust in the
head finally subdued it. The turtle was
taken to Pawtucket, r. l., and from
there shipped to Horace e. Stilman,
Fulton market
On the way to this city the turtle died
Mr.. Sullman sold it to John Lawson, a
man working in the market, who, with
the aid Of eight others, hoisted it on a
dray and took it to Coney island, where
it is to be exhibited.

When the Democratic national
convention at Kansas City yester-
day adopted platform containing
a straight-out declaration in favor
of free silver coinage, at the ratio
of l6 to l, the speculative markets
for securities instantly responded.
On the Stock Exchange at New
York, a bullish feeling Immediate
ly developed, and everything on
the list went up several points.
Why? It was not because the f.
nancial interests have changed
their minds concerning the blight
ing influence of the democratic
currency and tariff policies. It
was because the explicit avowal of
the silver heresy in the platform
was greeted as conclusive evidence
of the defeat of the Democratic
ticket in the approaching oampain.
The attempt to put forward "an-
ti-imperialism" as ''the paramount
issue" will be futile. The people
took issue with Bryan and his par
ty against free silver coinage in
1896 and will do 80 again in 1900.
They will recognize the platform
as wind and free silver, and will
refuse to be deceived by the wind.

An aeropaut dropped into Lake
Erie, near Toledo, recently, and
was drowned, another balloonist
dropped to death from a height of
500 feet at Santa Ana, California
The balloon is so common that tho
only attraction of an ascension is
morbid desire TO see asronaut risk
his life. 1t is the same with aer-
ial trapeze performances. The
antics of the actors would repre-
sent just as much skill if they

THE CROPS.
Conditions Have Changed and
Mobiles County now Promises
to Have big Crop.

A couple of weeks ago indications
were very unfavorable for a good
crop of small grain and corn this
year, but the rains of a week or ten
days ago have changed the condi-
tions 80 that at the present time
prospects are very bright for a big
crop and good quality.
The Advance has interviewed
a few farmers as to CROP conditions,
unknown to them that the informa-
ton was desired for publication, and
ehey all speak in about the same
glowing terms:
Rud. Roos-"My crop is fair, in
fact it will be good. Commenced
cutting barley Monday"
Dan Morley-"My crops are look.
ing fine and corn too. Will commence
harvesting in week or two"
John Harden-"I am not com
planning; never saw corn look better
at this time of the year. Will have a
good CROP"
J. 0. LARSON Crops are looking
fine all through oul town. Barley
harvest commenced Monday"
H. Haggard-"Grain is looking
fine. Oats will be ready to cut Mon
day"
John A. Saxon-''My crops ar
good, better than last. year. Straw
will be light but heads of wheat ar
large and we'll filled"
! F. D. Lindquist-"Crops in north
east part of the county are looking
splendid and farmers will have
good yield and quality"
| These are only a few evidence
that might be secured from formers
Indications are that the corn GRO
will exceed previous years.

Fix It Up.

During the meeting of the county
commissioners in June the matter of
frightening up the interior of the
court house was brought before them
but no action taken:
The walls and ceiling of the court
house certainly need something to
change their appearance. In the
court room the ceiling is discolored
by water, The roof has been repair
ed so that this trouble is at an end.
The plastering is off in the stair way.
There are many bad looking places on
the walls of the corridor and else
where, where the plastering has come
off and it has been replastered; be-
sides this the walls and ceilings are
all blackened.
This building is the pride of the
county and is being visited annually
by hundreds of people, some on bus
mess and others to obtain ideas for
erecting similar building, and it's
condition should be kept up to a
creditable point in appearance, but
it cannot be said that it is in such
condition now. It should at least be
kept in condition equal to that of
the home of a man of moderate
means, but it is not so now.
When visitors come to Worthing-
ton they are naturally shown about
town, their attention called to our
public buildings and inspected. These
buildings reflect the resources and
wealth of the entire county and not
of Worthington, as many suppose.
Therefore a good condition of the
public buildings is essential to show
that the wealth of the county is ad-
>vancing instead of diminishing.
j.. Lavish or elaborate repairs are not
advocated but simply those that will
keep the building in creditable ap
pearance and if this is desired, re-
pairs are now necessary.
