Outlook For Fruit.

The present prospects for grapes 10
grape district are very encouraging. The
danger period lor frosts is practically
over and il no danger occurs between
now and harvesting time this section will
harvest the largest crop of grapes in its
history. Manager Durham of the South
ern Michigan Fruit association, who is
one of the best growers in the district
places the crop at from 70 to 80 per cent,
which, from other reports received, we
believe is very conservative estimate
This will mean from 1900 to 1000 car
loads at least. w. G. Wildey of Paw
Paw places the output from that station
alone at 500 car loads. III the favorable
prospects continue the Southern Michi-
gan association will build Offices and
scales at Marcellus and Decatur. Straw
berries and raspberries promise fair
crop, although the latter have been dam
aged somewhat by the winter. The in
dications are that there will be good
apple crop, although it is rather early to
tell. Pears are setting well.-Lawton
Leader.

The Hogenbeck Shows.

Cheap round trip excursion rates have
been made to Kalamazoo for June 9,
when the Carl Hagenbeck greater shows
exhibit for one day only in that city, CIV
ing afternoon and night performances.
The Carl Hagenbeck shows have grown
within the year, enlarging from a trained
animal show to a tremendous triple
featured enterprise thas is more compre-
hensive than any other tented amuse-
ment institution. Ia its greatly aug
mented form it now embraces a complete
three ring circus, an East Indian pera-
hera or Hindoo festival and Hagenbeck' ;
original trained wild beast exhibition
with added features In organizing for
this, the first year of Its greater proper
tons, an effort was made to build an in-
stitution of such wide scope that failure
at reaching at the outset the coveted
ranking position in the amusement
world would be impossible. Three prac-
tically different and distinct shows have
been blended into a consistent and har-
monious whole. Individually, either
from standpoints of extent or worthli-
ness, they would compel attention and
admiration, and presented together they
make for proposition that is irresist-

A Famous Newspaper Man.

as great marvel as his faculty of al
ways making his matter interesting
Probably no other newspaper cores
pondent in the country is read so regu-
larly and eagerly by so many thousands
OF men and women as Mr.. Curtis. Mr..
Curtis has travelled several times around
the world, visited every countay under
the sun, and written larger number of
brilliant and interesting letters of travel
than were ever before produced by sin
gle hand. Many of these have later been
reprinted in book form. One of his lat
est expeditions for the Record Herald
was through Mexico, resulting in a series
of letters as entertaining as those he
wrote few years ago from India, Tur-
key and the holy land. His forthcoming
letters from Ireland, Russia and Ger
many will rivtl in Importance and inter
est any of his previous contributions.
Beginning his career in Chicago as
reporter IN 1872, Mr. Curtis rapidly rose
to be managing editor. He resigned
that position to accept government APP
pointment as secretary of The South
American commission. So brilliantly
