Smith, j well known lumber dealer of this j city, wondered about the origin of the no ion so he wrote to Luther Burbank, foremost horticulturist in the country, who lives at Santa Rosa. California, and the following infor- , mation was received from him: , A. J. Smith. ( Decatur, Ind., Dear Sir: — , Yours of August 19th received in I due season but Mr. Burbank has I been away from home a week. As far as he knows the Casaba I and Honey Dew Melons both origin- I ated in Persia and were introduced I to California. Mr. Burbank improved I the Casaba greatly. When first in- I troduced it cracked very badly and I decayed but by several years selec- I Lion it was made so it would not I crank. These two melons are prob- I ably the best melons grown. I Respectfully yours, I LUTHER BURBANK. I Per B. R. Secy. I — o- I Baby Hanged In Cradle At Home In Woodburn I Ft. Wayne. Sept. 9 —Margery I Slusher, 13-month-old daughter of Mr. I and Mrs. I>e Slusher of Woodburn, I was accidentally hanged in its cradle I yesterday morning sometime between I 9 o’clock and noon. I The child had not been very well I for several days and yesterday morning Mrs. Slusher held the child in her arms until it went to sleep and then carried it to its cradle in a room on the second floor of their home. The mother went about her usual household duties, thinking that the hild was sleping. It was about noon when she went upstairs again to get the child, and found the baby hanging by its neck over the siderail of the cradle. The frantic mother picked up the -•hild and ran across the street with it in her arms to the home of Dr. Moser. The physician said the baby had been lead for sometime, apparently. Death was caused by strangulation. Mrs. D. B. Erwin and Mrs. Mary Congleton have left on a motor trip to Detroit, Michigan, where they 1 will he the guests of Mrs. B.

He was recognized i on the street by the young man who f had gone with his son, who iinmedi- ' dtely notified his son and it is said e that they quickly left the city. His ' search failed to reveal his son, however, he was told that the boys had r been working at the Pennsylvania <hops and had just left. Without wait. ’ irg, lie collected the wages due them. Young Schwartz is a good type of ( a young fellow and his recent act t came very much as a surprise to his friends. It is thought that the other ' young man. who acted as a decoy, and a whose name has not been learned, is I largely to blame. I
