The visitation ta indeed unusual and no particular section of 'the city seems exempt, for the erstwhile caterpillars are visible everywhere.

Attorney Nichols, attorney for Mrs. Viola Shepard, of Huntington, in her suit for damages against the O.-W. R. & N. for the death 'Of her husband, finished his case yes- terday forenoon about 10:30. Imrae- dlately Attorney Spencer, of. the rail road's counsel, moved for a non suit.

The state de partment is encountering considerable difficulty' In flndlngsultable sites for embassy and legation sites abroad. I When congress passed the bill for pur- j chase by this government of such build lugs, It named $J .'0,000 as the maxi mum price which could be paid for any one building. From estimates submit ted to the deoartment It now appears i that this restriction may prevent Un cle Sam owning homes for his diplo matic officers In any tt the big foreign cities. ' It Is only at. the smaller posts, It is said, that the government will be able to purchase sites within this figure. It is possible that the state department may ask congress to make an excep tion in certain cases to permit of ex tension ot the law to such cities as London, Berlin, St. Petersburg, Paris and others.
