VEGETATION DAMAGED AS MAY AWAITS HER TURN

A few flakes of snow, frost and a slump in the mercury which brought freezing weather, composed the twen-ty-four hours of weather which closed at six o'clock this Friday morning. During the night the mercury slipped to the 24 above zero point and it is feared that fruit and other vegetation has 'been killed by the rigors of the near winter weather. April has been uncommonly cold and . it is to be hoped that May will provide real growing weather. YESTERAY’S RESULTS National ==r Chicago, 5; Pittsburg, 1. _ , Philadelphia, 8; New York 5.
