Crop Prospects in Wisconsin.

EAU CLAIRE, Wis, May Platter
a protracted drought, warm, coplous
shower last evening had the effect of re-
viving suffering vegetation, and there
is every reason to believe the cereals,
which have been backward, will come
forward vigorously, The fall wheat, u
limited amount of which was sown in this
part of the State, presents fine appear
anco and promises Il good yield.
Complaining has not fairly commenced,
and it is not likely that the acreage will
be as large as last season, As the last crop
throughout this section proved a total
failure by premature frost. The ground

New YORK, May 2l.-The proposition

take notes at twelve and twenty-four
months, with six per cent. interest, in
temporary settlement of their claims,

to this proposition.

Twenty-Four Hour Watches.
New York rribun,


The new time standard adopted on
November l8 is being folio we'd by the
introduction OF twenty-four hour watch
dials. The American watch company
OF Waltham has issued notice that 1t
is manufacturing these dials in such
shape as will permit of their beidg sub
stituted for any of the ordinarily divi-
ded watch dials on their watches. At
Edwin A Thrall's, Maiden Lane, one
of the new dials may be seen. The
hours from II to "a are placed close to
the outer circumference of the dial, the
figures from to IL being within small.
ler circumference. Thus just above the
figure l is the figure 13; above the figure
2 the figure IA, and so on. The ordin-
ary distinctions between day aud night
will sufficiently indicate to the observer,
unless hshas been on prolonged spree,
whether the time indicated is l o'clock
in the morning or 13 o'clock, which
would be equivalent to p M, accord.
ing to the present method of registering
time.
Most of the orders for these new style
watches have thus far come from rail-
road companies. 81 regard them," said
Mr.. Thrall "as the precursors of more
radical change that Is not far distant
We shall soon have in general use watch
es with the hours marked from ! to "a,
in which the hour hand makes only one
complete revolution In twenty.four
hours. In most watches the ouly change
necessary to effect this will be new dial
and an alteration in the minute pinion
and the hour wheel Meanwhile these
compromise dials serve to make the
change gradual and easy"

d New and Fearful Disease MAKING
Many Graves in Guernsey C0un-
ty. Ohio. M 'ss

NEwcoMERsT9wNs o., January, 27s-
A very strange and peculiar disease has
appeared among the. children about ten
miles south of here, in Guernsey counI
ty, and many deaths are already report.
ed to have resulted from the sttafie6
malady. A few weeks ago family
moved to that section from the West
and brought with them some disease
SIMILAR to scarlet fever, only great deal
more virulent The disease first spread
to Mr.. Tuber's family, then to that Of
James McCullom, who has already lost
one child and has two others at the point
of death. Mr.. AZ. Scotrs children
then became sfnicted and he has already
buried two of.them and the others will
probably die.
The disease makes its appearance very
suddenly and the symptoms are FROM
the first very alarming. The victims
throat begins swelling and fills up with
mucus, and the face assumes dark pur-
plish hue. A high fever at once results,
and the eyes of the victim contract as
terrible vomiting spells set in. The
vomiting continues, giving the little sufs
ferer great distress, and kills il inside OF
two days unless it can be checked. The
citizens of the community are becoming
alarmed, and four of the district schools
have been suspended on account OF the
epidemic.
