LOCKERBIE STREET FAIR
SPLENDID SUM NETTED FOR THE
FRESH AIR MISSION.
Between Two and Three Thousand
Persons Visited the Thoroughfare
All Kinds of Attractions.

Lockerbie street was aglow with myriads
of brightly colored incandescent lights and
thronged with people last night. 1t was the
first night of the Lockerbie-street fair,
given for the benefit of the Fairview Fresh
Air Mission, and from all reports none
of the patrons came with tight purse
strings. Early in the evening the square
from East to Liberty street began to take
on the aspect of a pretentious affair. AS
the crowd increased the cry of vendors
from booths which lined the sides and CEN
ter of the street became louder, reserve
clerical forces were pressed into service
and the street was scene of business and
activity So successful was the fair that
there was talk of continuing it till to-mor-
row night. The receipts far exceeded all
expectations for the first night and most
of the booths were sold out early in the
evening.
At the East-street entrance there were
more than 1000 cash admissions, besides the
tickets sold in advance. Close to the en-
trance was the automobile station, from
which automobiles made trips about sur
rounding streets. An ice cream booth did
an extensive business at either end OF the
square. although the evening was cool. The
candy booth sold out early. The fish pond,
Enclosure built of rails and screened
with green, where fishermen and fisher
women took chances on making a good
catch with silver bait, was fished dry long
before everybody had an opportunity to
try their luck. The fortune tellers tent
was the center of attraction for young and
manageable women, whose future pros
poets were outlined by seers with the &C
curacy of a seventh daughter of a seventh
daughter. For classical tastes there was
an art booth and a long counter strewn
with pictures, posters, china, fancy work
and things of art One booth made the
sale of flowers and fruit a speciality and
another dispensed lemonade with a reck-
lessness that soon emptied the vessels.
Then there was the vaudeville show, the
great and only performance" of its kind
on the ground. 1t was liebrally patronized,
and instead of repeated bally-hoos being
necessary to attract the crowd and fill up
the seats, the doorkeepers had all they
could do to take in money and keep the
theater from overlooking. 1t was the orig
inal intention TO give but two performances,
but there was such desire for vaudeville
that third performance was given.
In financial returns the vaudeville show
led all the other attractions. The receipts
were $52 40 for the night Nearly all of the
altogether the Fresh Air Mission fund will
he increased by $500. In view of the fact
that everything was donated for the fair,
| with the exception of stock in some of the
| booths, the receipts will almost be the net
! profits. 1t is estimated that during the
evening between 1900 and 5000 people at
| tended the fair

by w. III. II. Shank.

Elizabeth Campbell, a servant in the fam
lily OF William II. II. Shank. living at No.
1902 East Washington street, in Irvington,
attempted suicide yesterday afternoon
about o'clock by taking a quantity of
chloroform. The girl was discovered in an
unconscious state by Miss Whalen, nurse
employed in the Shank family. All day
yesterday Mrs Shank was at Bethany Park
and did not arrive home until early last
night. There was no one at home except
Miss Whalen and the Campbell girl. The
former was attending TO her duties upstairs
while the latter was busily engaged in her
work below stairs. About 5 o'clock Miss
Whalen had occasion TO go down stairs and
discovered the PROSTATE form of the Camp
bell girl lying on the floor. The two doctors
from the suburb were summoned and
worked with the girl for several hours. She
partly regained consciousness and was sent
10 the City Hospital last night where il
was said she may recover.
Mrs. Shank said the girl, who Is nineteen
years old. had never been melancholy and
she knew no reason why she should at
tempt TO take her life. The girl has always
been attentive TO work. Mrs. Shank said
the girl had been adopted by family
named Stewart, but where they lived she
did not know. She said she thought the
girl had had some trouble with her foster
parents that led her to attempt suicide.

A VACATION WITHOUT FUN.
Maurice Cahiu Has Had to Make Too
Many Explanations.

Maurice Cahill, one of the room clerks at
the Hotel English, took a weeks vacation
recently. Guests of the house think they
have seen a change in the young mans
countenance since his return. He is pen
sive where before he was gay Recent de-
velopments have revealed the real trouble.
1t seems to be a case Of joke on a joker.
The day following the departure of the
young man on his vacation there was a
paragraph in the Journal to the effect that
he had gone away for a spell and that it
was understood the smiles Of a Harbor
Point belle were Turing him northward. The
paragraph also intimated that Mr.. Cahills
return would be a sort of honeymoon trip.
This rather flippant comment on the young
man private affairs was mailed to him
that day by "Dannie" Sullivan, mail clerk
at the English. Mr.. Sullivan's smiles were
almost satanic as he placed the clipping in
an envelope and bethought him of a certain
brOwn-eyed girl who was then counting the
days until Mr.. Cahill would return to In
romancer and he halls from a locality in
Indianapolis where they do like to see a
"muss.' Mr.. Sullivan'S earliest recollec-
lions Of the hill take him back TO the
time when the shillalah was the favorite
weapon of the "byes."
Mr.. CahilI received the Journal clipping
at the Palmer House in Chicago one morn
ing just after breakfast He read it and
enjoyed the joke. Then, with the worst
sort of an analysis of the feminine mind
he inclosed 1t in an envelope and forwarded
IT to Miss Brown Eyes at Indianapolis
with this comment: Don't believe ali YOU
hear-the newspapers are not truthful 3"
Next morning Mr.. CahiI was passing
| through the office the clerk handed him a
yellow envelope. He tore open the telegram
and 1T was from Her"
You've got 10 show me-Tm from Mis-
souri,, was the simple little message Mr.
| Cahill recalled that the young woman used
| to reside in ST Louis and he decided this
was clever But. unfortunately, he did not
| take IL seriously. He proceeded on his
| journey and not until he received another
| message al Harbor Point did he begin to
ponder Explanations have not arrived: /
| am waiting" the second message read. Mr.
| Cahill could almost feel the message freeze
/ TO his fingers he read it There was
| something about these few words that told
| him IL was time to act, and he called the
| long-distance telephone into play. Now
/ Mr.. Cahill is a polite young man, always
| Far be 1t from him 10 turn from a woman
| when she's talking. II took something like
| a weeks salary to explain the harmless
| newspaper paragraph and the worst OF IL

FRANK B. FLANNER on THE sOUTH's
INDUSTRIAL BOOM.
An indianapolis Man who Sought
Health and Profit I'm that Country
Other Hotel Visitors.

Frank B. F1anner, a well-known Indian
apolis young man who is now connected
with The Industrial South. a Birming-
ham (Ala.), publication, is in the city on
business for his paper. The young man
has long been a sufferer from rheumatism
and went South in search of health. He
thinks he is better from living in the
balmy Southern atmosphere and will re-
main there. In speaking of the industrial
conditions in the South yesterday he said:
cit is possible at this time 10 make a
forecast for 1903. Notwithstanding the pro-
longed drought throughout the South the
cotton crop promises TO be a fair one and
larger than that of 1901 though the acreage
is 223 per cent. smaller. II we would
comprehend the possibilities in the textile
industry of the South we must take into
consideration the fact that of the whole
acreage of the South only about one-fifth
is yet under cultivation. The many
experiments and attempts made by Euro
pean governments to raise cotton in their
colonies have but demonstrated that no
where are the conditions for growing cot
ton favorable as in our part Of the
United States. The new, large and mod
ernly equipped mills being built in the
south every month prove that the suprem-
acy of the Northern mills days are num-
bered. A few more years and our South
ern mills Will consume more cotton than
the mills of the North.
While one may not yet predict accu-
rately the prospects for good yield from
Americas three principal cash crops, cot
ton, corn and oats are good. Timely rains
will work wonders for the cotton and corn
crops. The stocks on hand are small, with
the consumptive demands increasing. Good
prices WILL therefore, be maintained, and
the continued prosperity Of the farmers
of the South and West seems assured. The
railroads are preparing TO handle an in
years will probably witness the greatest
activity in railroad building since 1S79-1s80.
| Many new lines are projected for the
/ Southwest. The St. Louis & San Francisco
Railroad, the lines in that section con-
/ trolled by the Gould system and the Santa
/ Fe are making many extensions and i'm
/ provements. These conditions underlie the
unparalleled activity In the iron and steel
| industries. The pig iron production is
burg range from $50. % TO S21 at furnace,
| with delivery in some cases running into
| April OF next year. In the Birmingham
/ district pig iron Is selling at 81 TO 81
/ premium over the list price. The supply OF
i steel, structural and in billets, is entirely
| inadequate to meet the demands. Large
/ orders for both kinds have been placed
/ in Europe. The situation promises an in
creased home consumption, the surest and
| best market for us. Everywhere new in
/ dustries are springing up especially in the
/ South; and there was perhaps never a pc
! riOd in the history of the United States
/ when the outlook was as bright as II is
| to-day. The indications all point to 1906
as a record breaker
