LADY MERCER, KAIISK.

.Captain, the Honorable John Jacob Astor, younger son of the former William Waldorf Astor, now Baron Astor of Hever Castle, is soon to marry Lady Mercer Nairne, it is announced today. Young Astor, who is an officer in the First Life Guards and champion racquet player of the British Army, was appointed by the King as a lieutenant in the Life Guards in 1906. He was wounded in a battle in France early in the war. .

From various sections of the county today came reports to the effect that the continued cold and wet weather was playing havoc with the -crops. Farmers are very despondent over the outlook and admit that if the present weather continues much longer there will be, on an average at least a 50 per cent reduction in the principal crops. - FEAR DAMAGE - AT BOSTON. BOSTON. Ind., June 21 Another week of such weather as experienced in the southern part of Wayne county for over a month will result in severe damage to crops, farmers in this locality state. "If normal weather comes within the next two or three days, arid continues a reasonable length of time, the situation will be saved," said the owner of a large Boston township farm today. "If the present unsettled weather continues a week longer half the corn crop will be lost, practically all the wheat crop and hay will be greatly injured. Conditions right now are very serious. Wheat and hay are growing too fast, and corn is not growing at all." HAGERSTOWN PESSIMISTIC.

Water descended in torrents during last night, and this morning much of the lowland was inundated, greatly to the detriment of growing crops, especially the corn, which is already pale and sickly in appearance. Hay and the smaller grains will suffer also, and when the water recedes from the bottom lands a muddy sediment will cover everything. Pasture land will be unfit for use for some time. Farmers will be unable to enter their fields to cultivate their crops for a number cf days. HAY CROP IS FAILURE. WHITEWATER. Ind., June 21 Unless clearer weather is forthcoming within the next few days, weeds will overrun many cornfields in Franklin and adjoining townships and the expected hay crop will never be harvested.

INDIANAPOLIS, June 21. Engineers paid by the Richmond Light, Heat and Power company testified before the public service commission today, that the value of the company's property is about $200,000 more than that fixed by the commission, which was about S520.000. Today the chief, witness was E. C. Howard. His testimony was along technical lines. He endeavored to convince the commission that the valuation of the company upon which the commission will base its decision on the company's plea of an increase in rates, was greater than has been fixed. Under severe cross examination by City Attorney Bond, Howard admitted the valuation made by him contained some duplications. He said, however, some duplications in wide streets and other places was good gas engineering. The value of buildings, exclusive of lighting, heating and sewage fixtures, was fixed at $38,960.65.
