1t has been announced that there will be
"foot-washing" at the Mason School House,

Farmers throughout. this section are done
threshing. There was general complaint
of an almost unprecedented shortage in
wheat. In many instances the amount of
grain threshed scarcely equaled the quantity
sown last Autumn.
A considerable amount of sickness has
prevailed in this vicinity since beginning of
"dog-days." In almost every family one or
more persons suffered from one of the MANY
phases of illness to which we all, as mortal

are sowing wheat, while the majority are

GOODwATER, Mo-, Sept. 9Th, 1885.
Ed. Regtster.-Illness of your correspond
ent and the pressure brought to bear upon
him by old "Father Toil' have caused de-
lay in the writing of communication from
this point.
During the % days intervening between
July 18th and Aug. 10th we did not have rain
enough to beneficially affect such crops as
required an abundance of moisture during
the above mentioned period of time.
Saturday, Sth ult., the sun shone with a
fervid heat, although the wind blew cool,
hence it was quite chilly in the shade, but
hot in the sunshine. During the afternoon
of the next day it was sultry. Between three
and four o'clock on the morning of Monday,
Aug. 10th, heavy thunder storm passed
over this section of country; 1t was accom-
panied by an abundant rainfaIl-the heayi-
est with us since the first half of July.
Since that time the temperature has been
considerably lowered. The nights with
two or three eXceptions-have been unusu-
ally cool for the season; tremendously heavy
dews have been the rule.
On the 23d ult., it was quite hot and vege-
tation withered considerably. Next day at
1850 P. NJ, a rain fell here; at P. NJ. on the
succeeding night tremendous storm passed
south of us; heavy shower fell here early
next morning. Wednesday, 26th ult., was
very cool. Next two nights almost cool
enough for frost.
During the past week the weather has been
diversified by warmth and GOODNESS, sunshine
and cloudy weather, with one or two very
light showers and heavier rains yesterday
morning and last night.
Among those who attended the picnic at
Mallow's Mill on Aug. 22d, were the follow
ing young folks from this vicinity: Messrs.
Geo. w. Love, Chas. Bryan, Sylvester Payne,
and r. j. Alcorn, the last three of whom
were accompanied by the following "fair
ones:" Misses Sophronia Alcorn, Salome
Bryan and Maggie Bryan. Mr.. James Lara
more and his sister, Miss Lucy, residing near
the southern boundary Of Washington coun-
ty, and Miss Annie Carnie, vivacious little
school marin, who "teaches the young ideas
how to shoot" in the adjoining district, also
attended the picnic. All of the above named
parties report that they enjoved themselves
very much.

About one week ago, two-year-old child
OF Harry Boughen's, near Pilot Knob, was
caught by the head in a rail fence, and other
children pulled the child loose, and in some
way succeeded in producing one of the most
remarkable injuries known to the records of
surgery. Both clavicles, popularity known as
collar bones, were torn from the breast bone
and forced upward in front of the windpipe.
The rarity Of this injury may be realized
from the fact that but two or three cases
have ever been observed, and many reputa-
bic surgeons deny the possibility of its occur
renee. The case will be photographed, and
plaster casts made, which will be forwarded
to st. Louis, with complete history of the
case, in order to place it on record. As it is
one of the most difficult of dislocations to re-
tain in position, requiring special appliances,
what the result of treatment will be, can
only be determined by time.
The Picnic at COad's Hollow, between
Ironton and Pilot Knob, on the 18th inst,
promises to be a much greater affair than the |
projectors anticipated, judging from the ex- |
cursion tickets already sold in st. Louis alone.
And, as every station between st. Louis and |
Pilot Knob will contribute full quota, tie |
fourteen passenger coaches engaged for this |
are likely to be more than full. |
The spot selected lies at the foot of Shepherd |
where the grass keeps green al |
most all the year; where pure, clear springs |
Of iron water, in which weeks Of health are |
to be found in every sparkling drop, and free |
as the air we breath-its healing qualities not |
in fact almost unknown to the |
people Of the Valley. The music, vocal and |

ment stands will be loaded with good things |
to eat, from wiene wurst and schwartz
maughin to Angel cake. This will be pic
mic not to be missed, and won't be by thous-

lieves in. The next day he announces
that for the present he has closed up
his office dispensing bureau, and his
Secretary of the Navy has one hundred
men discharged from the Brooklyn
Navy Yard who were given places be-
cause they were active workers for
the Democratic ticket in the present
