ed by two boys that strange man
was lying asleep in the catalpa, grove
just east of the street railway park
line. Chief Breckel went out, but
found no one. The boys description of
the man, and the way he was dressed,
did not tally with the description OF
Williams.
Another rumor was brought to the
sheriff's Office Friday evening. It was
to the effect that LeGrand man, mo-
toring to this city, had picked up" a
| man who came out of the weeds east
of this city, at a point about where
the Northwestern and NJ. & st. l..
tracks begin to converge The stranger
rode with the LeGrand man into this
city as far as the viaduct. The Le-
Grand man thought he answered the
description of Williams fairly well.
Word from Eldora was to the effect
that the suspects held there did not fit
the description of the man wanted.
Think Williams Was Here.
That Williams had engaged a room
for Thursday night, and was here after
the murder was committed, is the be-
lief of the sheriff's officers. 1t Is said
that man who gave the name Of Rob
ert Williams rented a room Thursday
at los South First avenue, saying he
wanted to use it that night. He left an
umbrella and grip. 1t is known that
the umbrella and grip were in the
room as late as 8 o'clock Thursday
night. Friday morning they were gone.
Ben Morrison, a farmer living near
Conrad, for whom Williams worked
until three weeks ago. was in confer
ence with the sheriff this afternoon He
said that Williams owned an umbrella
and grip such as are described as hav-
ing been left in the room he rented.

Peach Week Here;
|ss, Advice Is to Car,
EaPf While Fruit Lasts

Practically the only chance the
housewife will have to get good peaches
for canning this summer IS right now,
say the wholesaler fruit dealers, and it
behooves all interested in canning to
get busy. Carloads of alberta Texas
peaches are expected this coming week,
and the quality is said to be good. After
this, however, peaches will be scarce
for the rest Of the summer.
The Texas crop is almost exhausted,
the Missouri crop is not promising, and
the Arkansas crop is two-thirds gone.
The Michigan peaches, always looked
forward to by many housewives, are
said to be absolutely no good this year.
Last year big crop was on hand, but
by the time many Of the peaches got
this far west they were spoiled. No
dependence can be placed on any but
Texas peaches this year, it is said.
Colorado and Utah, 1t is claimed, have
only a so per cent crop this year.
Berries continue to be scarce. Re J
and black raspberries are conspicuous
by their absence and high price. They
are still selling at 20 and 20 cents the
quart, and restaurants get Is cents for
q medium sized dishful. The first ship
ment of blackberries is expected next
week from Missouri. Nothing definite
is known as to the quality Of the black
berries this year.
Watermelons and canteloupes con-
tinue to be the best and cheapest fruits
on the market. Even lemons have gone
up in price, due in part to the big de-
mand A few roasting ears are looked
for from the south in a short time, but
they will be too high to be considered
anything but a luxury.
Vegetables are about the same as
they have been for some weeks. Fresh
beans are exceptionally good, say mar
ket gardeners.
