Police Informed Thomas Zugg
Escaped From an Insti-
tuition at Dayton.
HE DEPARTED LAST MARCH

A telegram was received yesterday
afternoon from the Ohio State Asylum
at Dayton, o.. desiring to know ii the
Thomas Zugg, arrested here Saturday
night for drunk, was insane. The in
formation that he had been acting
queerly and was very probably insane
was sent back which resulted in a
visit to this city yesterday OF one of
the Asylum officials. He stated that
Zugg was an escaped lunatic having
made his escape from the asylum at
Dayton last March and efforts to To-
cate him since then had been futile.
Zugg was returned to the institution.
He has been working at Gaar. Scott &
Co., but because of his queer actions
was discharged recently. When ar
rested in the lumber yard of Hutton s
coffin factory he was creating a great
deal of uneasiness among the resi-
dents of that vicinity by his peculiar
actions.

Owing to the inclement weather Of
Saturday afternoon, members of the

the small attendance it was decided to
postpone the meeting until the regular
meeting in September. The society
was to have considered the horticult-
ural display for the Fall Festival and
the part which it will take in the dis
play. Reports from those who At
tended the different sessions OF the
state horticultural meetings at Center
Vile last week were to have been
made also.

ARE REAL WONDERS
Tomatoes Raised by J. B. Gill
bert Are Regarded as
Remarkable.
VINES EXCEEDINGLY HIGH

Josiah B. Gilbert Of 1o2 North Fiji
teenth street. has raised some toma-
toes that are really wonders. The
vines are now IA feet high and still
growing. It is stated by Mr.. Gilbert
that they will in all probability attain
a heighth of 20 feet before the sum-
mer is over. The tomatoes are OF the
giant variety and are magnificent
specimens They grow in clusters OF
eight or nine and it is estimated that
over fifteen bushels will be produced
from the five vines. The largest to-
matoe is twelve inches in circumfer-
ence and weighs over two and one half
pounds. A tomato was recently pick
ed from this vine which weighed
three pounds. it is said. The toma-
toes are attracting a great deal OF at
tention and are claimed to be the fin
est ever grown in this vicinity.
