Awful Hail Storm.

A destructive hail storm passed
across the south end of this county
Wednesday afternoon at about 8 o clock
and crops were damaged to the amount
of thousands of dollars. Some farmers
lost every bit of crop and garden truck
they had, and window lights were bro
ken on the storm side of the building.
The hailstorm started a little south
east of Fort Atkinson and extended
almost to Castalia, and was was about
u miles wide. An idea may be had of
the awfulness of the fall of hail, when
we state that piles of hail were found
two feet deep where wind and rain had
drifted it. 1t may be hard to believe
las we are such noted prevaricators)
but we saw a pail of hailstones this
Friday) forenoon, two days after the
storm, that DR.. Hefien brought into
our Office, and many of these hailstones
We're then as large as a good sized
hickorynut. 1t is strange, but in the
past eight or ten years that same ter
ritory southeast of this town has been
visited by four hail storms. Calmar

AS Calmar Views It.

Goodness Me! That was rather rough
on that Cresco bunch. They got soaked
all around even the ladies in their gay
plumage went home with their plumes
sadly dropping. Really we could not
help but feel little sorry for the
Cresco people, who came down, two
coach loads strong, with team of excel
lent players, (witn battery from New
Hampton), all puffed up and flushed
with recent numerous victories over
other good teams, and then to be sent
home without score-a clean shut out
being badly soaked by the. great
weather man as well. Our plucky vis-
itors put up hard fight but had to
bow down to their superiors. Not
Cresco man got further than second
base. One of the good and rather
amusing feature of the game was the
home run by Huber in the third inning
the first score made by Calmar. He
hit the ball and the fielder fumbled it
and lost it and although six men looked
for it Huber crossed home plate before
the ball was found, he pausing at each
base to see whether he dared venture
further. Diely struck out 8 and Schultz
8; hits by Calmar 8, by Cresco. a. In.
the lucky 7th Calmar punched hits and
scored twice. In the Calmar half of
the eighth the game was called on ac-
count of rain with one man yet to get
out, score 8 to 0. Come again gentle
men, we will treat you right if we do
have to lick you. u.-C Calmar Courier.

s
After trial extending over period
of nearly three months VIM. Haywood,
on trial at Boise, Idaho, for conspiracy
in the murder of Governor Stuenen-
berg, the jury after celebrating 81
hours brought in verdict of not guilty.
The verdict was surprise to some of
Haywood's supporters who feared that
the jury was somewhat hostile to him
and consequently had looked forward
for nothing better than disagreement
at this trial. The jury evidently put
little faith in Orchards testimony and
still less weight in the testimony manu-
factured by the Pinkerton detectives.
On the first formal ballot the jury
stood: not guilty 8, guilty 2, blank 2.
The prosecution announces that it will
proceed at once with the trial of Meyer
and Pettibone, but it should first try
and hang Orchard while he is still in a
religious frame of mind and prepared
to die.

Threatening Panic.

Whenever the public show any dis
position to stop the extortion practiced
by the trusts the trust magnates
threaten to bring panic if if they are
disturbed. They learned it from the
tariff barons who have for a genera
tion warded off reform by the threat
of panic.
Now come the manipulators of our
great railroad systems and threaten
panic if they are interfered with. The
trust magnates, the tariff barons and
the railroad magnates, have their
hands in the pockets of the people and
they demand that they shall be permit
ted to continue their exploitation of
the public as the price at which they
will allow the people to enjoy prosper
ity.
Have we reached the point where all
legislation must await the consent of
of the benefciaries of the privilege and
favoritism? Is this the condition to
which the republicans have brought
the country? The sooner reform comes
the easier it will be accomplished the
longer it delayed the more radical the
change. The Commoner.

TRACK MOVING BEGINS
Mile of Chicago, Lake Shore
and South Bend Road
Being Rebuilt.
Especial to Lake County Times.)

Gary, Ind, Oct. 3.-The announce
ment has gone forth along the line
that the work of changing the present
line of the track of the Chicago, Lake
Shore & South Bend interurban line
to a position sixty feet further south
than it is now will begin at once and
the camps and quarters affected there
by are beginning to move. The change
in the line involves the moving of
over a mile Of track, meaning the
expenditure of some twenty thousand
dollars, but is all done that a larger
amount of room may be provided for
the three railroads that lie between
the Chicago, Lake Shore & South Bend
and the river. Ali of these three, the
Lake Shore and Michigan Southern,
the Baltimore & Ohio, and the Chicago
& Indiana Southern, have been given
rights of way sufficient for four tracks
each and it is understood that prac-
tically all of this number will be put
in within a comparatively short time.
If this is done there will be practically
the finest track equipment for the
several trunk lines at that point that
is known in the state of Indiana The
work of putting in the concrete abutt-
where they cross Broadway is being
pushed relentlessly and every day sees
large progress. Several concrete mix
ers are busy and two large swinging
cranes move constantly backward and
forward, lifting gingerly it's enormous
loads OF sand. crushed rock, stone and
cement that goes into the abuttment
cribs.
The moving of the tracks of this in
terurban railroad company after a mile
of it had been laid down and graded
for the purpose of track elevation, in
dicates the determination of the build
ers of Gary to do things right while
they are at it.
They realize that while it may cost
considerable to move these tracks now
it will be nothing compared to the
cost of making room for other tracks
twenty years from now when the traf-
fic on these roads will demand it.
This is an indication of the manner
in which Gary is being built. Gary
is a city Of the present. but it is also
a city Of the future and foresight is
the prime requisite of the men who are
laying the foundations.
