Fairfield, Aug. 25.-Parsons college

terday when it became known that Il
message had reached this city early
in the forenoon announcing the death
of Prof. G. w. Gable which occurred
yesterday morning at his home in
Wooster, o., and resulted from an at
tack Of typhoid fever.
Prof. Gable was for twelve years in
structor in mathematics in Parsons
college and was one of the most popu-
lar men ever connected with the fac
ulty. He left Fairfield about four years
ago, being called to take the chair Of
mathematics in Wooster university,
Wooster. O. He had three children in
tered in Evergreen cemetery in this
city and it was at first thought that he
would be brought to Fairfield for in
terment, but as the hour for the funer-
al was fixed by a message for Satur-
day morning at 10 o'clock, he will prob
ably be buried in Wooster. His wife
and daughter Miss Margaret,
survive.

TRAVELLER NOT
DIAMOND THIEF
Muskogee Girl Causes Arrest of
Flance and Now Learns Ring
Was Stolen From Him.

Muskogee, Okla, Aug. 25.- Three
months after J. E. Stern, a travelling
man from Muskogee had been
released from custody, having been
charged with stealing diamond ring
valued at $400, the real thief has been
caught and confessed. The ring was
the property OF Miss Alice Smock, of
Coffeeville, Kan, Stern's sweetheart.
Stern had been wearing the ring for
some time when one morning he
awoke to find it had been taken form
his finger. He tried IL explain to the
young woman but she doubted his
story and caused his arrest. He spent
a month in Jail where the girl visited
him, declaring she was sorry for him,
but that he should be punished. He
was tried and released because there
was not sufficient evidence to convict
him. He Immediately left to make his
home in a western state. Yesterday
a Muskogee detective arrested two
young men and obtained confession
from one of them that the two, to-
gether with another who has not been
arrested, stole the ring. They lived
in the same rooming house with Stern,
and at night chloroformed him, soaped
his finger and removed tn ring.

CRICKET is ENEMY
OF GRASSHOPPER
Farmers Of Northwest Told by EtomoI.
ogist That Musical Insect is Their
Best Friend.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Aug. 25.-The
crickets' once doleful fiddlings now is
music to the ear Of the farmer of the
northwest.
NJ. P. Somes, grasshopper expert for
the state entomology after a summers
investigation in the grasshopper-in
tested district of Minnesota and the
Red River Valley. declares that the
cricket has an Unsuitable appetite for
grasshopper eggs and is eating them
by the millions. The female grass
hopper aor several weeks now has been
depositing her eggs in the ground. The
cricket according to Mr.. Somes has
peculiar appetite for finding these de-
posits and a ravenous NAV, after he
once gets his mandible into the egg
pod.
The determination Of the grasshop-
per, which destroys thousands of acres
of grain in the northwest, seems to
rest with the question of providing
more crickets. The discovery is looked
upon as an important one by the en-
tomologists and by crop experts.
