COMMISSIONER HoRD has issued
a report showing the condition of
the different crops Of Tennessee up
to the first Of October. Early corn
was injured by dry weather, and
late corn has been injured by con-
tinued rains, so that the prospect
for an average yield is not SO good.
The cotton crop has been seriously
damaged from excessive rains, pre-
ventinggathering, and an early kill
ingfrost isnow greatlyfeared. The
incessant rains has materially in
iured the tobacco crop, and while
a large per cent. Of this crop is in
the barn, portion Of it is saved in
a very bad condition. Hopes are
entertained that the remainder of
the crop will be saved without fur
Their injury. The yield Of the pea
nut crop will be diminished if the
wet weather continues. Clear, dry
weather for the next few weeks win
better the prospect of the import
ant crops, and while the condition
of the different crops is not as ia
vorable as is desired, still, with the
exception Of the small yield of the
white potato crop and the loss Of a
large per cent of the hay crops in
Middle and West Tennessee, it is
estimated that the yield Of the farm
products will approach nearly to an
average, and with a mild fall and
winter there will be plenty to tide
us over.

The returns from the Georgia
electionheld last week indicate that
the fight against Governor GORDON
was fierce and bitter, and that the
Alliance has captured the legisla-
ture and will dictate the selection
of a United States Senator The
fight was GORDON and anti-GoR-
DON, and the latter won. The an
tagonism Of GORDON to the Alliance
and his apparent candidacy for the
Senate arrayed the full strength Of
the ALLIANCE against him, and this,
together with other disaffected ell
ements,. brought about his defeat.

Something About Jewels.

NEW YORK, August 14.-At one time il
was said that coral ornaments were again
coming in vogue, but the fancy very soon
died out. The Sicilian women buy coral
for their babies, believing that it will
not only keep them from being i'll, but
that it counteracts the effect of the evil
eye and keeps away the wicked spirits.
Mrs. Langtry's collection of turquoises
is a superb one; her necklace took seven
years to collect. Each stone is perfect in
shape and color; they are surrounded by
small diamonds and hung on very thin
gold chain that is almost invisible, so
that the beautiful blue stones seem to
be resting of themselves on the white
neck. A very superb turquoise, former
ly owned by Cora Pearl, now belongs to
the Baroness Blanc, who has had it re-
set in framing of diamonds as a brooch.
1t had formerly been pendant.
People used to say that money put in
diamonds was like money deposited in a
savings bank, but this isn't SO. The
woman who is using her money with
anything like view of saving it had
better buy rubies or sables, for by their
rarity both are always costly. The ruby
is always given the preference as an en-
gagement ring, for it seems to tell in its
wonderful deep color of a great human
love. Pearls should not be selected, for
they mean tears, and sapphires are more
typical of heavenly than an earthly
love. The happiest woman in New York
today is one who wears on her finger a
ring of betrothal in which is set fine
ruby that once glowed upon the finger
of mummy, and perhaps meant to her
just what it does to another woman
the sign and seal of happy ending to a
love story

In point of historic interest as well as
in wealth and religious vitality the First
Presbyterian society ranks foremost
among Cleveland churches. "The Old
Stone Church" as its home structure on
the public square is called, occupies the
site of the first Presbyterian church in
Cleveland. The present structure was
built in 1865, and rebuilt three years
later. The architecture has many of
the characteristics of the late Norman
and early English periods, with heavily
buttressed walls and round headed
doors and windows. There are two
towers, the main one of which at the
Ontario street corner rises in a spire 215
feet high. The interior is frescoed in
neutral tints, and the ceiling is a groined
arch in the center with semi-arches at
the sides, To the rear is a commodious
Sabbath school room and chapel and
the pastors study The audience room
has seating capacity of 1900 Besides
the old stone church the First Church
society directs the Calvary church, at
