The following items Were written and
reached Us IN siEne for last weeks paper, but
were unsvoidably left over. as was also con
siderable other copy prepared fer that issue.
Sunday morning. July 1st, an
other fine shower of rain. The crops
look as promising as we ever saw
them. Fall wheat, rye and barley
about ready to harvest, with prospect
of a good yield.

better il Nebraska, for all kinds of
grain, than anywhere between here
and there. Says there are a great
many fields in Illinois under water.
= P. MeFaddeD has made the round
| trip to the Black Hills and back, well
satisfied with the trip. He says that
Deadwood is the place to 60 If you
want fresh man for break fast every
morning. He has bought property in
Sheridan, and is going to blacksmith
ing again.
IT. F. Gill and wife are visiting
friends in Glen Rock.
r 4. Hawley was out at Glen
Rock Sunday. the Oath ult., holding
meeting, while the Sunday shooting
was going on. What q pity it is the
party making the attack had not
missed his man and went 10 hear the
Elder preach. Who knows, if he had
attended the meeting, what influence
those christian men and women
might have had to keep the young
man, and others, too, from treading
Oh such dangerous ground. 1t seems
sometimes, that christians lose sight
entirely of the need of earthly wis
dom in all their efforts In behalf Of
the youth. They either forget or ig-
more the pleasant and alluring aspects
Of sin, and consequently offer no
counterbalsneing motive to lure to
wards the right. Youth is saDguIne
and punishment for sin does not fol-
low go closely as to have much influ-
ence on the mind in time of tempta-
tion. We know in the beginning the
woman found the forbidden fruit
pleasant to the eyes. So now, as
then, sin is made attractive by the
world, the flesh and the devil, and
christians should take this fact into
consideration. When we say chris
tians, we mean al christians, of every
kind.
