EARLY FRUIT CHOP
NEARLY DESTROYED
Loss of Thousands of Dollars

Marion County Fruit Growers Say
Cold Has Done Great
Amount Of Damage.

Practically all of the early fruit
crop oflthe ;spupty, has, been almost
completely ruined by the SHOWS,
frosts and cold weather of this
month following as it did the al
most midsummer y. weather of
March.
Warm weather with bright days
and occasional showers during the
month of March brought the fruit
TO a stage where the itr0sts could
do the most damage and true to
the predictions of. local weather
prophets the county crop is fall
ure.
The late fruit, it is stated, is
not damaged as much as the ear
lier crops and under average condi-
tons a fair amount of fruit will
be secured. 1t is expected that
prices for fruit that is home grown
will be higher this spring and sum-
mer than for many years in the
past.
The exceptional weather has
worked much hardship on the farm

The boy thanked the Judge for his

NO WEDDING
BELLS TONIGHT
Deal has Been Declared
MOTHER OF FREDDIE
Asks the Police to Stop the
Marriage
License Is Returned and the Cour.
koundly Scores Those Implicated
in the Matter

Mrs.. mot Miss-Fanny Donavin,
and Mr.. q Frederick Il. Whitesides
will not be married on the stage of
the Family theater this evening. The
reasons are that the groom's mother
won't let him, and besides, no mag
istrate or minister in the city would
agree to perform the ceremony,
The news that young Whiiesides,
height, four feet and IL inches, and
weight, SO pounds, had secured
license to marry Fanny Donavin,
short and stout, weight reputed to
be IT'S, was published in all OF the
city papers this morning. At Pitts
burg, the home Of young Whitesides.
the story was published and was read
the first thing by his mother, Mrs.
20. II. Whitesides.
About 10 o'clock this morning came
a telegram from Mrs. Whitesides to
the local police department. She said
that her boy is only Is years of age,
and she asked that the proposed mar
riage be prevented.
Before the police could take a hand.
Manager Vail of the Family theater.
became cogni izant Of the fact that
trouble was brewing for some one.
He was not certain that any share of
the trouble would be for him, but he
resolved to take no chances.
Vail, accompanied by his assistant,
Arthur j. Baum. looked up the d.
m!nutive Whitesides and said 1t would
be best to call the marriage off. The
proposed groom secured his license,
and the trio took 1t to Probate
Judge Foster, where 1t was duly can
celled
Judge Foster then asked the theater
managers and young Whitesides for
an explanation.
According to the information CIV
en- TO the judge by Manager Vail, il
had been the intention at first to
give & mock marriage, and to have
lWhitesldes and Mrs. Donavin as the
contracting parties. 1t would be
good advertising scheme for the
house and for the supposed bride and
groom, they thought.
| Thursday morning. after getting
the license, Manager Vail called on
!llxtices Charles II. Conley and ar
iraR9sd 70 have him perform the
teeremony, Under this arrangement.
the ceremony would really have made
the mismated couple man and wife.
The judge severely censured Vail
and Baum for entering into such an
arrangement and permitting a boy
like Whitesides TO swear to false
statements, as he had done In getting
the marriage license. He took an
oath that he was 21 years old and
that Mrs. Donavin was 23, when the
fact OF the matter is that the pro-
posed bride is in the thirties. He
also told the Judge that Mrs. DON
avin had never been married. She
Stated Thursday afternoon that she
was divorced number OF years ago.
When told that he had comr .tted
perjury, and under the laws OF Ohio
could be sent TO the Lancaster re-
