Days of golden sunshine and frag-
rant flowers are strangely interrupt
ed by chilling and unlimited breezes
Of the frigid zone. For instance. YOU
may picture to yourself the sweet
scented orchards Of yesterday. laden
with the most wondrous profusion of
delicate pink and white waxen-like
blossoms. That fills the heart with
radiant cheerfulness prepossessingly
attractive. Today, however, let your
gaze rest upon the same sad specta-
Gle and behold the devastation of the
recent frosts. And in all probability
you will exclaim: What a cruel de-
ception fate has played u.s. for truly,
the promises have been made void
and the beauties of earth have faded
within a night" Fruit growers have
folecasted heavy losses throughout
tae country as result of the freeze
and keen disappointment is being felt
on all sides as many had looked for
ward to the harvesting of a huge
bumrer~crop Of all kinds of fruit this
coming autumn.
Mr.. R. J. Bailey, representing the
A. klipstein Company, Of New York
City, was a business visitor here for
few hours on Saturday morning.
Mr.. A. H. Austin, representing the
Argus Manufacturing Company. of
Cleveland, Ohio, was business visi-
tor here on Tuesday.
Mr.. J. Harry Lang, Of the National
Betting Company, and a part owner
Of the tanning plant located at this
place, was in Hutton recently on bust
ness. Mr.. Lang's home is in New
York City
We are pleased to state that the
condition Of Mrs. c. II. Gruseniorf.
Of Edgewood, near here, is very much
improved at this writing. Her ex-
IRENE illness resulted from an attack
Of influenza, which was reported in
these columns a few weeks ago. Mrs.
German Kimmell, an only daughter,
who resides in Wichita, Kansas, was
unable to come here, as stated, owing
to an epidemic Of scarlet fever pre-
vailing in her home.
Mr.. Leroy Horton was business
visitor to New York City one day last
week.
Sunday forenoon was cold and dis
NAL. Slight snow flurries were dis
cernable in the distance and appeared
in the downward trend like the she'd
ding of the floral plumage of the SER
vice tree, beautiful in the artistic
splendor Of billowy immaculate
blooms.
We chronicle the death of Mrs.
Martin Riley, of Washington, D. C.
Mrs. Riley was formerly Miss Anna
Casey of this place, and her death will
be learned with great deal of sor-
row by her friends here and else
where.
Mr.. Jerry julius Pendergast was a
business visitor to Terra Alta We'd
nesday evening last.
The April 18th issue of the Liter
airy Digest contained some very in
teresting and suggestive comments
reproduced from a late edition of the
Pittsburgh Sun. The article in uues-
ton dealt with the marvellous and as
founding growth of the radiotele-
phone and read as follows:
"When the president of the Amer
lean Telephone and Telegraph Com.
pany, from his home in Connecticut,
corversed with the captain of the
United States liner America. $40
miles out from Ney York, the highest
rinnac]e apparently was reached in
the development of wireless COM
munication. The imagination can not
go much farther without accepting
telepathy as being among the practi.
cal possibilities. There will be great
improvements, of course, in radio
telephony, but no radical changes in
the essential features seems likely"
While ir the augmentive we may re-
peat what we have said before, with
conviction-a single thought directed
with potency will span a space of
more ;han a thousand times ten
thousand miles ST. ELMO.
