Curious Mishaps Afford Lots Of
Excitement in Front of
Town Hall.

Joseph Mandel, a Harrison huckster,
spent the busiest five minutes of his
life in front Of the Harrison Town Hall
yesterday. He was driving past the
municipal building when al oil stove,
which he carried in the wagon to keep
his fruit and vegetables from freezing,
was accidentally overturned. The blaz-
ing oil spattered over the bottom of the
wagon.
Mandel seized the stove and hurled
it to the street. 1t landed between the
hind legs of the horse. The oil splashed
on the equine and in q minute the ami
NAL was also afire. Mandel, all this
time, was trying to put out the blaze

WILBUR WRIGHT IS DEAD.

DAYTON, Ohio, May 30.-Follow-
ing a grim battle against hopeless
odds, Wilbur Wright, Dayton S
noted birdman, died at 3:35 this
morning Of typhoid fever. Death
came after the distinguished
patient had fingered for days and
nights in the throes of a burning
fever.
Taken i'll with typhoid fever
several weeks ago, Wright had
been lingering on the border for
many days, and though his condl-
ton from time to time gave some
hopes to members of his family the
attending physicians maintained
throughout the latter part OF his
illness that he could not recover.
As death approached, all men,
bers of his family gathered at the
beside, including his aged ia her,
Bishop Milton Wright; Miss Cath
crime Wright; Orville the coin
ventor of the aeroplane; Reuchlin
Wright and Lorin Wright.
The most alarming symptoms
in Mr.. Wright s sickness develop
ed yesterday shortly before noon,
when his fever suddenly mounted
from 104 to 106, and then quickly
subsidized to its former stage. AT
this juncture of the crisis the
patient was seized with chills and
the attending physicians were
baffled by the turn of events. The
condition Of the aviator remained
unchanged throughout the rest OF
the day and there was no material
change until last midnight. Then
Mr.. Wright began to show some
improvement and the watchers at
his bedside were encouraged.
Shortly afterwards, however, the
patiena took a sudden turn for the
worse and his principal physician,
Dr. ID. B. Conklin was called. The
doctor arrived at 3 :35 and learned
that Mr. Wright had breathed his
last few minutes before.
Mr.. Wright was taken i'll May
4, while On a business trip to the
East. On that day he returned
10 Dayton, from Boston, and con-
suited DR.. Conklin, the family
physician. He went to bed i'm
mediately, but it was several days
before his case was definitely
diagnosed as typhoid. Through
out the early part Of his illness
Mr.. Wright believed he was suffer
in gas a result Of some fish he had
eaten at Boston hotel.

urban connection into our town
and country, we gladly extend to
them the endorsement and co-ope-
ration of the people of New Iberia.
We are justly proud that our com
munity now has the only interur-
ban trolley in this section. We
recognize the officers, and direc-
tors of this line as pioneers in
bringing to this people new means
of transportation and commerce,
and we see in this movement a
new appraisement of the value Of
our undeveloped resources and of
untouched potentialities Of
wealth hidden in the fertility OF
our lands.
Be it resolved that to Mr.. F.
w. Crosby, the Superintendent of
construction, is due great credit,
and well deserved public recOgni-
ton. for the tenacity and the
steadfast faith which he has al
ways displayed in the project and
for the intelligent efforts which
enabled him both to organize and
to successfully promote the line.
His personality and energy are
largely responsible for the trans
mutation of his dream into a real
ity, and for our obtaining this
most effective aid to commerce.
Be it further resolved that we
express to the Company, and t.
its directors, our hearty willing
ness to cooperate with them III
making the enterprise a success
and in extending its sphere Of use

SHIPS WITH SPECIAL FACIL
tiles FOR PROTECTION
PASSENGERS.

From information received
from the Southern Pacific Com
pany, operating the Steamship
Line between New York and New
Orleans, we learn that passengers
using that line need have no fear
in case of accident. The life-boat
capacity Of these ships has always
been sufficient to accommodate all
of the passengers and crew and
the wireless equipment is such
that the wireless room at all
times, night and day, is in charge
Of an experienced operator. No
tees are posted in all staterooms,
public rooms and the steerage,
showing the assignments Of occu-
pants to specific boats, and all
life-boats are conspiciously num-
bered. Fire and boat drills are
held at each port as well as on
the first day out and passengers
are invited to take part in them.
Stewards demonstrate how to at
tach life-belts to the body. It is
said that these are not new rul-
ings, but have been in force on
these ships for several years.

are many other sorts which you
may try and no doubt succeed,
but the above mentioned will
answer. When early and late
variety are sown at the same time,
plants will head IA rotation early,
second early, and late, cabbage
will be ready for market from
November to February. The first
to head is the Early Jersey Wake
field, about 80 days forming cane
shaped heads, weighing from two
to four pounds are more suitable
for family than market.
Then comes the Early Summer,
Stems Early Flat Dutch, Success
sion, Stems Early Flat Dutch is
one Of the best and very popular
extensively grown by our gard
eners forming solid white heads
weighing from four to eight
pounds. All Season and Sure
Head are the next in order to
head, forming large solid round
heads, will remain longer in the
field than other sort. Before
twisting or shooting seed stalk do
not fail to try those two varieties.
For a large hard head, plant
the late Flat Dutch and st. Louis
Late Market, they are the largest
varieties and generally sure
crop. Specimens were brought
to the store last season weighing
from IS to % pounds. If you
have any land unoccupied it
would be more profitable to plant
peas and prepare same to grow
a crop Of cabbage next fall. The
season is far advanced, very few
vegetable seeds planted this
month will succeed. Now don't
you think it would pay better to
have your land well prepared
and fortified. When ready set
out cabbage plants in August and
September. One acre of headed
cabbage will pay better than a
lot of beets, squash, etc.

WORK IN THE GARDEN FOR
JUNE.
By e. J. Carstens.

Very few vegetable seeds can
be sown this month, the ground
ought to be occupied by growing
crops as weeds will be growing
very fas,. Your attention must
be given to keeping them down.
Unfortunately gardeners have
been troubled with insects, plants
have been destroyed, consequent
ly will have to try again. How
ever success will depend entirely
upon the weather.
Beets, Bush and Pole Beans,
Cucumbers, Squash, Tomato, Rad
ish, Okra, Pumpkin, Melons, Egg
plant, they may do well, but it
would not be prudent to plant
on a large scale. <
Continue to sow the Autumn
Giant Caulifower. After this
month it will be too late as it
takes from eight to ten months
for that variety ito form heads.
The Autumn Giant Caulifower
grows very tall and plants must
be set out in rows four feet apart
and thirty inches distan'tI in line
It is rather early to sow cabbage
seeds, plants are generally easier
raised in June. than in July and
August, however only a small
quantity Of seeds should be sown.
1t would not be prudent to- sow
for main crop before July and
August, this is the proper time.
Seeds sown from July to LIST Of
September for the fall and win
ter will give better results than if
sown later, as plants set out from
seeds sown in September and
October will be only half grown
when cold weather sets in, and
are liable to freeze. Of course
all will depend upon the season.
AS this crop is a paying one, it is
very important to procure the
very best quality of seeds, also
varieties suitable for this section.
The varieties generally planted
are the following. Early Jersey
Wakefield, Henderson Early Sum-
mer, Stems Early Flat Dutch,
Succession, All Season, Sure
Head, Late Flat Dutch, St. Louis
Late Market. OF course there
