New York advices are to the effect
that heavy apple crop will be harvest
ed in most of the sections where that
fruit is raised, and that even where small
crops are expected the harvest will be
larger than that of last year. This news
will be hailed with delight by house
wives, who during last winter cut down
their purchases so heavily on account of
the high prices that the fruit rotted on
the hands of spectators and caused
bankruptcy in a number of instances.
The lesson of last winter and the big
crop of this year will probably deter
speculation and give consumers a chance

The Niagara Falls Power Company
has shut down its plant for a week of
repair work. and turned the water into
it's natural channel over the great falls.
This has afforded another opportunity
for the measurement of the effect upon
the falls of the flow of water through
the tunnels. United States Lake Sur
vey employees have been taking readings
at Chippewa, Willow island, Prospect
point, at the head of the Falls, and at
Port Day, and when the water is again
turned into the tunnels the effect of the
change will probably again be noted. 1t
will be remembered that a similar shut
down some months ago caused the dis
covery that the diversion of the water
had little or no visible effect upon the
volume of water going over the crest of
the falls. If this observation is con-
firmed by the new readings those who
have been denouncing the policy Of using
the water for the production of power
will be compelled to accept the situation
with more complacency.

Mrs. Randall, mother of Mrs.
Frank Simon, is here from Pa
louise on a couple weeks visit.
VIM. Felberth has rented the
east room of the Schiller building,
next to the drug store. and will
open another confectionery store
there in couple of weeks. He
will have more room than formerly
and will carry a much larger stock.
He wishes all of his former friends
and customers to call on him when
he gets ready for business.
A large party of young folks
surprised Matt Schubert at his
home north of town Tuesday even
ing. The surprisers came supplied
with music and eatables and pro-
ceeded to enjoy an old fashioned
house warming, Matt having a fine
large room waiting for just such an
occasion. About fifty persons were
present and dancing held sway
until midnight, when a nice lunch
was served, and the enjoyment
was then continued until morning.
All present had a very enjoyable
time.
Work was commenced the first
of the week to excavate the lot
where the new hotel is to be built
on the old Cottonwood House site.
Quite bit of ground will have to
be- removed as the new building
will be considerably longer than
the old one and a nice basement
will be built under part of the
building in order to supply the
hotel with steam heat. Work on
the foundation Of the building will
be begun next week and as soon as
the foundation is ready work on
the frame of the building will be
rushed with all possible haste.

Will Start Another Library.

The ladies of the library club
have decided to try and resurrect
the old library and will canvas the
town next week for yearly sub
scriptions to the club in order to
see if they can secure money E.
nough in that manner to pay rent
for a library room for the coming
year. The ladies have about $500
on hand which will be spent for
new books and if they succeed in
securing enough money to pay
rent, etc., for a year they will send
in an order for books at once and
hope to open the library shortly
after the first of the year.
The membership fee of 81. 90 en-
titles a person to read books from
the library for year and the sum
is too small to stop anyone from
becoming a member. The former
library was appre ciated greatly and
all should assist the ladies in every
possible way to get the new library
started. Let every citizen take out
a membership card and the rest
will be easy.

finally resulting in the patients death.
Senator Allison had been sufferer
for number of years. For the last
two years he required relief twice
daily and was regularly visited by .
physician. He consulted the best au-
thorities regarding his affliction but
his advanced age was the strongest ar
gument against the operation which
might have corrected the defect. Then
senator fell away in flesh rapidly and
close friends noted upon his return
from Washington following his at
tendance upon the last session OF con-
gress that his mental faculties were
not as keen as they had been.
They knew that it was but aues-
ton of time when death should claim
him. but chivalrous sense of loyalty
to the aged man sealed their lips, with
the result that the state at large has
not been advised regarding his condi-
ton At an early hour on Tuesday
morning Senator Allison was stricken
with the fatal illness which resulted
in his death at 1888 Tuesday after
noon. He summoned servant of the
household and physician was inn
mediately called who pronounced his
condition critical. About noon the vet
eran statesman lapsed into an uncon-
scious condition and at 1888 passed
peacefully away.
At his bedside when he answered the
klinaI summons were Mrs. Brayton, for
years In charge of the management of
his household, his close personal
friend Mr.. John Mcdonald. of this
city, and DR.. John r. Hancock, his at
tending physician.
Senator Allison had been feeling the
effects of the intense heat during the
past few days, but only Monday was
his condition considered dangerous.
His sudden change Tuesday morning
alarmed the members of his household.
and every possible effort was made to
restore lost strength, but without avail,
He lapsed into unconsciousness and
passed away at the hour named.
