Fairbanks Speaks at Cornerstone
Laying.


Vice-President Charles w. Fair
banks was the guest of honor at the
most imposing fraternal assemblage
that was ever brought together in
this corner of the State. He was the
orator of the day at the laying of the
corner stone of Hammond's new Ma
sonic Temple which will be complet-
ed September 1, and which will cost
more than $4,000.
Crop and Fruit Conditions.
Inquiries as to the present condi-
tions in this county of wheat, corn,
cloverseed and fruits, has not result
ed in assurances of a satisfactory
nature. Prior to the recent cold
weather and the late rains it was be-
lieved they were damaged 25 to 40
per cent. From present indications
the percentage will be greater.
Wheat is severely damaged, owing to
the freezing and thawing and in
many localities will be but little bet
ter than half crop. In places where
the field is protected by trees the
conditions are good and normal
crop may be expected, but on gen.
eral average it will be about 60 per
cent of that of last year. The local
price is rs cents. Farmers do not
seem to be holding back for better
prices, as more are selling than are
holding.
Oats have been retarded by the
cold weather and have not sprouted.
The conditions are not good for an
average crop. They may be reckon
ed at s5 per cent of last year The
present price is 40 cents.
Clover in many places has been
frozen out, the freezing and thawing
having forced the roots out and ex-
posed them to the frosts. What there
is will be backward and the yield
will be about 20 per cent of last year.
Flowing for corn has but fairly be-
gun. The ground, except in lower
places, is in fair condition for the
plow There will be little or no plant
ing before the Goth of May
Small fruits are injured. Cherry
trees that have been examined show
black places on the buds, made by tn.
frost.
Apples, pears and the larger fruits
have not advanced sufficiently to base
an opinion. Most fruit growers grow
the carrier kinds of cherries, in order
probably to market them when prices
are the best, but it would seem n
safer method to cultivate the later
kinds.
Under more favorable weather con-
ditions the above estimates may be
considerably changed There is one
gratifying assurance, however, the
watermelon crop will be large.

Fell From Train and Killed.

A passenger on No. 9, which left
here at 6:3O Thursday evening, either
fell or jumped from the train, three
fourths of mile this side of Donald
son and was instantly killed. The
man was about % years old and was
probably a Hungarian. His body
was thrown against the barbed wire
fence, breaking three wires of the
fence. A postoffice order for $s1.6O
dated at Lebanon, Pa, destined to
Vigmuost, Hungary, was found in a
pocket, and letter written in prob
ably the Hungarian language, which
no one here could translate.
In the absence of the coroner
Justice Unger went with Undertaken
Bunnell at 10 o'clock Thursday night
to the place and the body was
brought to the undertaker's.
]. E. Whitesell, section foreman al
Donaldson, received telegram from
Fort Wayne from the Pennsylvania
company, ordering him to look for
the body, the accident having been
reported by the train crew to Fort
Wayne.
An inquest was begun Friday
morning, but the Donaldson section
men knew nothing more than the
mere finding of the body, and the in
quiry was deferred pending informa-
ton from train crew of No. 9.
Conductor Christopher Casey and
Head Brakeman G. E. Cour of train
No. arrived here Friday afternoon
and the inquest was continued over
the body of the unknown man found
near Donaldson. Mr.. Casey recog-
nized the remains as those of pas
senger on his train. His opinion is
that the man jumped off, He says
the passenger rode in the smoker and
there was no unusual manner in his
conduct He showed no signs of in
ebriation. No answer has as yet been
received to the telegram sent by the
city authorities to Lebanon, Penn,
and his Identification is yet unknown.
