CROKER SLOWLY DYING
California Millionaire Afflicted With
Cancer-End Only a Mat
ter of Hours.

New York, Nov. 29.-George Croker,
youngest son of the late California mil
lionaire, Charles c. Croker, is slowly
dying at his home here from a malady
said to be cancer.
1t was reported earlier in the day that
Mr.. Croker had but few hours to
live, but his brother, William H. Crock
er, said this afternoon that while the
patient was sinking each day, he did
not believe death was imminent.
George Croker, who inherited one
fifth of the $50 200, 900 estate left by his
father, has been i'll for a long time. In
the spring OF 1908 he was operated on,
and while the progress of the maIady
was stayed for time, the patient for
weeks has been gradually sinking.
A week ago Mr.. Crocker's relatives
were summoned from California when
it was apparent he could not live much
longer Mr.. Croker is about 81 years
old. His wife died in 1904 from the
same malady with which Mr.. Croker
is said TO be afflicted.

That the fair, even though not alto
gether unique in it's character. is yet one
of the best and greatest displays of what
must be termed everyday food prod

manifest on almost the first glimpse of
the interior of the hall.
Although the formal and official open

o'clock, was necessarily postponed until
1880 in the evening, owing to the inability
of Mayor John s. Bransford to be pres
ent until that time, the crowds were not
deferred from satisfying their curiosity
during the afternoon.
The exercises set for the afternoon were
carried out IN the evening, when Man
ager A. A. Tremp introduced Mayor
Bransford to the visitors In brief ad-
dress the mayor eXtolled the benefits of
such an exhibition as was afforded the
people, calling attention to the home prod
