Ed Virgil Realizes Twenty Thou
sand Pounds Off an Acre,

In conversation with Tribune rep.
resentative yesterday Ed Virgil, who
is ranching on the old Lester place
about four miles below town stated
that he had piece of ground which
had been in alfalfa for the past fifteen
years. Last spring he plowed it up as
the alfalfa had about run ont. He
measured off an acre and planted it
to onions using two varities the Brown
Australian and the Yellow Danver.
He has just harvested his crop of
onions, 300 sacks weighing about 20,,
600 pounds and hopes to realize two
cents per pound for them which he
certainly ought 10 have for his labor.
Mr.. Virgil only raised this acre as
an experiment. About four years ago
he planted much smaller patch
from which he realized about 100
sacks. but says he lost money on
them. Onion culture is not an easy
proposition. They require constant
watching and must be kept perfectly
clean and well irrigated. The ground
must be kept moist all the time or the
growth will be retarded. Then one
must have good cellar or storage
room in which to keep them until a

To Attend King Edwards Coronation.

Washington, Jan. 1.-THE cabinet
meeting, today, was devoted largely to
the consideration of appointment of
representatives of this country at the
coronation of King Edward VII. At
its conclusion the following designa-
tons were announced by the secretary
OF state:
Special ambassador, Whitelaw Reid
of New York; representative of the
United States army, Gen. James Will
son of Delaware; representative of the
United States navy, Capt. Charles e.
Clark, commander of the battleship
Oregon during the Spanish-American
war and now governor of the Naval
Home at Philadelphia. There are to
be three secretaries, as follows: j. P.
Morgan. Jr., son Of j. PierpOnt Nor
gan of New York, Edmund Lincoln
Baylies, a parrister of New York and
William Wetmore, son of Senator Wet
more of Rhode Island.
The approaching visit of Prince Hen
ry of Prussia to attend the launching
Of the Kaiser's yacht now being built
in New York, was also considered. No
definite plans for the princes enter
tainment have yet been arranged, but
it is the purpose of the President and
secretary of state to receive and enter
tain the prince in way to do the high
est honor to the Kaiser and the Ger
man people.
Mr. Choate, our ambassador to Lon
Ion. who sailed for his post, today,
will not have any official connection
with the special embassy, strictly
speaking. This was the fact during
the golden jubilee, when Ambassador
Hay was not even an ex-officio member
Of the special representation Of the
United States government. But as a
matter of fact, the United States am
bassador is a very important figure in
the ceremonies, and in almost every in
stance is an attendant on all the func-
tons in which the special representa-
tives participate.
Gen. James H. Wilson conferred with
Secretary Root at the war department,
this afternoon, and formally accepted
the appointment of military member
of the special embassy to London at
the coronation of King Edward.
Secretary Hitchcock called the at
tention of the cabinet to the proposed
| leasing of the west part of the Stand
| ing Rock Indian reservation in the Da.
kotas and the protest of the Indian
| Rights Association against such ac-
| ton. The leasing. it was stated, was
fully authorized by law.

burst through the roof, over the roof OF
the structure. From that moment tho
block was doomed and soon after II
o clock the walls began to fall. The heal
throughout the fire was so intense that
the firemen had to fall back and give
their attention to the surrounding build
ings.
Despite all they could do, the flames
apparently jumped Water street and set
fire to the Smyth block. wherein the Park
theatre is situated. The flames caught
on the hood on top of the block, which
serves as a covering for the theatre
stage, and the firemen to get at it had
to go into the theatre orchestra. So well
was the fire handled at this point that
the block was saved and the firm damage
is confined to the theatre stage. This
does not mean that other tenants did nos
suffer, for those on the ground floor were
pretty well flooded by water.
When one of the rear walls of the Ken
nard fell, the roof of the extension of
the Derryfield Club was ignited. but the
firemen were fortunate in putting ou-
this blaze which had done about $4,000

damage, and the heat broke the plate

the fire is not known, but 1t is thought to
have started from new electrical connec-

The Kennard block was built in 1S92
and cost $250,O00. At an early noun
this morning "wednesday it was i'm
possible to ascertain the individual
losses of the occupants of the Kennard,
but it was conservatively placed at
from $4,000 to 100000.
The loss on the block is total and the
damage to the Smyth block will prob
ably be from $4,000 to $4,000 while
miscellaneous damage to stores and the
Derryfield clubhouse will reach $4,000.
Several of the finest law Libraries in
the state were destroyed and the bust
ness houses occupying the first floor OF
the Kennard were among the largest in
the city.
The Kennard was built by the New
Hampshire Trust Co. on a 50-year
lease, at the end of that time the build
ing to revert to the owners of the land.
The building, since the failure of the
New Hampshire Trust Co. has been
in the hands of the contractors, Mead,
Mason and Co., who occupied offices in
the building. The rooms of the Man
chester Board of Trade, on the sixth
floor of the Kennard were among the
most finely appointed in the state.
The loss on the Swyth block was con-
fined mostly to the Park theatre the
firemen checking the flames so that the
banking rooms and the numerous
stores on the ground floor were not
damaged to any extent except from
smoke and water.
Fortunately there was not very
large attendance at the Park theatre
and during the first moments of the fire
at the Kennard the lights of the city
went out just at the time when The
lights in the theatre were to be turned
down for an act on the program. The
theatre goers hearing the fire bells, yet
not realizing that the fire was in prox-
unity to the building they were occupy
ing, decided to go out on the street,
which they did in an orderly manner,
and upon reaching the sidewalk they
were astonished to find that the fire
was so near to them.
The fire completely tied up the street
railway for several hours and consid-
cradle damage was caused to their
wires.
There We're no accidents during The
progress Of the fire.
