Only fiaIf a Crop of Wheat in Ohio.

The state crop report for April
1, shows the condition of the grow
ing wheat to be 81 per cent. of a
full average, as compared with SO
one month ago and SO on the first
day of April last year.
The report also states that there
is a shortage in acreage as compar-
ed with last year, which would
alone cause a loss in total product
of over 1000, 900 bushels. Late
seeding, dry weather and hard
winter are the prime causes of the
poor condition. 1t is stated, how
ever, that there has been compar-
atively little freezing and thawing
such as to draw the plant out of
the ground, and with the advent
of growing weather the wheat may
green up surprisingly.
The following are the prin cipal
figures of the report:
W h "a t-Condition compared
with an average, 81 per cent.
Wheat-Crop of 1908 still in
producers hands 16 per cent.

GAINESVILLE, Ohio, April H.
The Sunday peace and quiet Of
the little village of Crooksville,
just over the line in Perry County,
was broken this afternoon by a
tragedy. Two old people, Mr..
and Mrs. Sherwoodrs9,rooks, both
of whom are lifelong residents of
the village, are lying at the point
of death, their daughter Is not ex-
pected to survive the shock and
excitement, and her husband is
hidden in the Badger woods, hunt
ed by posse of armed men.
This afternoon George Parks,
whose wife is daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Crooks and from whom
he is separated, went to the
Crooks residence and demanded
that he be given possession of his
year-old baby. Mr.. and Mrs.
Parks ceased to live together a
month ago, since which time she
and her babe have resided with
her parents.
Parks's demand was refused by
both the wife and her parents,
but he was in an ugly mood and
persisted in his demand for the
child and made threats to take it
by force. Mr.. Crooks feared
trouble and went into an adjacent
room to secure a revolver.
When Mr.. Crooks returned he
found Parks, his wife and her
mother struggling for the possess
ion of the child, which was in
danger Of being torn from limb tc
limb Mr.. Crooks ATTEMPTED tc
separate the mbatants, in the
meantime laying his revolver on 6
stand in the room.
Seeing that he was overpoweret
Parks, it is said, grabbed the re
volver and fired at both Mr.. an(
Mrs. Crooks. Both fell to tn,
floor mortally wounded, and Park
then placed the smoking revolve
in his pocket and disappeared
He was traced to the edge of th
Badger woods, where the bafflet
posse halted, and has since mad
no furter effort to capture him
though strict guard has beel
placed around the forest to preven
his escape during the night. Drs
Crider and Dozer are .attendin.
Mr.. and Mrs. Crooks. Both doc
tors state that there is but littl
chance for either to recover. TIL
local authorities and the author
tiles of Perry County have beel
notified of the tragedy, and de
termined effort Will be made t,
capture Parks.
1t is said that after firing tn
shots and placing the revolver il
his pocket Parks waved his hant
to his wife, said good-by and walk
ed out of the house as if nothin.
unusual had happened.

Lancaster Council Refuses Carnegie
Donation.
tLancaster Eagle ]

The City Council met in regu-
lar session Monday evening with
all members present.
Messrs. Whitley, Reeves, Beery,
Tobin, Trout and Martin, of the
Library trustees, occupied seats in
the lobby and Postmaster James
II. Pickering representing the Lii
brary Lecture Course, was also
present, their presence being oc-
casioned on account of the Car
negie library donation matter,
billed to come up.
AT this juncture Janitor Graf
ushered into the lobby fifteen
ladies, members of the Women's
Federation of Clubs of Lancaster,
who appeared in the interest of the
Carnegie donation, believing their
presence would have beneficial
influence over the members of the
council.
A resolution accepting the Car
negie donation of $17, 500 to build
a free public library, offered by
Mr.. Mayer and seconded by Mr..
Stahl, was read by Solicitor NTH
off.
Mr.. F, G. Whitley, President Of
the Library Board of Trustees act
/ ing as spokesman for the board,
spoke in favor of accepting the
donation and incidentally referred
to the many city improvements
that he had championed and which
had been opposed by the various
city councils he had appeared be-
fore and he said the city was bet
ter for these improvements.
He said if this question was de
feated it would not be his funera
as some one had remarked. but
would be the funeral Of the FREE
public library. He said the
library trustees had asked Mr.
Carnegie for a library donation
not specifying the amount, know
ing full well, too, that Mr.. Car
negie would make some require
ments, and it was not unreason
able of him to require that the city
appropriate $3.50 for the main
tenance of the library per annum
which he said was about the
amount the city had been expend
ing annually on its present library
He said there was always opposit
ion to improvements; that there
were some who assert that NJ
buildings shall ever be erected OF
the city lots or parks that hat
been given to the city by Ebenezel
Zane for that purpose. He refer
red to the proposed Sherman me
mortal government building tha
he represented as a bluff although
apparently championed by Con
gressman Grosvenor and said i
was no sure thing, and said, lik'
David Harum, he advised tn,
council not to swap a certainty fol
an insure thing.
Councilman Mithoff referred t.
the small levy of three-tenths of {
mill appropriated now for library
purposes which brings about $123(
per year on our present valuation
and added the Carnegie library
would require janitor's fee, $3.50
lighting and heating, $3.50; insur
ance and repairs, 5000 per annum
and that the amount would b,
fully $500 in excess of what is nov
raised for library purposes.
The motion of Mr.. Mayer to sus
pend the rules and place the reso
lutions on its third reading wa
defeated by vote of to 2
Messers. Mayer and Stahl voting
in favor of the resolution.

machinists last night it was decided
to 60 ahead as if nothing had hap
pened until the order comes from
headquarters at Washington.
The action Of the railroad com
pany seems to indicate that it ex-
poets trouble. The majority of the
men will be placed in the shops today
and It is said they will be assigned to
boarding houses as soon as places can
be found for them. but that for the
present they will be cared for inside
the stockade al the shops. They are
said to be a clean-looking lot of men
despite the fact that they are said
to be professional strike breakers.
The men arrived in the city in
charge Of a special agent Of the San
"a ne company and were turned over
10 s. L. Sean, who Is acting master
mechanic and superintendent of mo-
tive power for the coast lines. Mr..
Bean and a number of his assistants
were present to receive them.
There have also been a number of
men sent to the west to Los Angeles
and San Bernardino over the South
ern Pacific To be placed in The com.
pany's employ on the west end.
The situation begins to grow very
serious and there will undoubtedly be
a move of some sort made by the In

NONUN|ON
SHOP MEN
Car Load Of Machinists and
Helpers Arrive in Albu.
querque to Work Fer
Santa Fe
GUARDS EMPLOYED
Lodged In Boarding Cars and
Cared For Inside the Stock
AIDES of the Shops

About thirty machinists, machinist
helpers and handy men arrived in the
city this morning on No. Z at los.
They are to be employed in the shops
at the Santa Fe.
They were all in a day coach close
ly shattered IN the front end OF the
train and the car in which they were,
was detached from the train and TAX
en- to the railroad shops yards where
bunk and boarding Ears have been
waiting for them for the past several
weeks.
Just where the men are from could
no be learned as it was impossible to
gain entrance to the car, though it is
said they have been picked up through
the east by special agents Of the com
pany and were brought from Kansas
City here.
A Gordon of deputies and specials
we're at the depot and the car was
carefully guarded, though there were
few men around the depot when the
train pulled in. There was no demon
stration of any kind and there was not
a machinist in sight, except those who
came in, and not one Of these showed
his nose from the train.
Men who are in a position to know
claim that half of these strike break
ers" have union cards and that the
Santa Fe company have been duped.
OF course the truth of this statement
remains to be proven.
There is NO strike and the machin-
lists say there will be. no strike, at
least for q time and it is generally un-
derstood that at the meeting Of the
