FARMERS COMPLAIN.
Weather Gives Little Promise of
Good Tobacco Crop.

Great complaint is being heard
among the farmers about the weather
conditions, and there is hardly any
doubt but all crops will command
big prices this year. The tobacco
planters complain that the frosts
and cold weather, together with in
sects. have ruined a great many of
the tobacco plants and the tobacco
crop will therefore be small. One
well known farmer in the county to-
day said that he would not have one
fourth crop, that while some of his
neighbors would have as much as a
half crop, no one would have more.
The same complaint comes from the
fruit and grain growers and the pres
ent outlook for 1907 is anything but
promising.

Greek.

BAR HARBOR, Me, Sept. 9-Mlss Eve
lyna Palmer. daughter of Mrs. Robert
Able of New York, will be married here
today to Angelo Sikelanas, Greek who
has won recognition in this country for his
poems and philosophical writings. The mar
rlage is causing interest, not only because
of the union of the young American girl
and the Greek poet, but because of the
social prominence of the brides family anI
her own unconventional ideas in the mat
ter of dress
Possessed of an Independent fortune in
her right, Miss Palmer has travelled much.
On her last voyage she returned from
Europe August l aboard the Lorraine and
was the most observed person in the
crowded first cabin because her attire was
that of a Greek maid of the days when
Greece was the home of art and literature.
Clad In a loose robe of Tyrian purple,
cinctured just above the hips with loose
belt, and wearing sandals on her bare feet,
Miss Palmer had to bear constant curious
scrutiny from her fellow passengers. She
told friends that she had adopted her un-
usual attire principally because of it's COM
fort and her belief that 1t was the most
healthful.

VAST TRADE MAY BE OPENED
Waterway TO Gulf from Lakes Will
Give Middle West south
ern Trade.

CHICAGO. Sept 9.-"The great middle
west will control the trade of the entire
west coast of South America when the
Panama canal is completed, providing the
deep waterway from the lakes to the gulf
is constructed. Otherwise II will be Japan,
Germany and England which will exercise
commercial sway over this vast empire to
be opened up
This statement was made yesterday by
John Barrett, director of the international
bureau of American republics, who has been
in Chicago for several days comforting with
men interested in the deep waterway prop
osition. 1t is his contention that the fed
eral government should lend all the aid
necessary for the construction of this ship
canal to make the great advantages of the
Panama canal available to the Mississippi
valley. Mr. Barrett said:
''It is not excessive to estimate the value
be purchasing from foreign countries at
$500 100000.
1.-The major portion of these supplies will
come from America II the great manufac.
turing centers Of the middle west are pro-
vided with water transportation. It re-
requires no stretch of imagination to con-
ceive boats or barges loaded in Chicago,
district making the entire trip. America
has been slow to improve its waterways,
much more so than any other of the great
powers. and 1t is time we awoSe to the
advantages to be obtained"
