The continual rainfall of the week
has made very telling effect on the
crop prospect of the country south of
town. The wheat in Tamany Hollow

are alike braced up by the fine outlook

fit, funeral-aid, and death-beneficiar

humber walks of life, the good they
have done is incalculable, carrying
substantial aid to thousands of stricken
families and inspiring those who are
fortunate enough in being members
with a courage which might not exist
in their hearts without them. The
: members of these organizations will be
glad to learn that Hon. Robert p.
Porter, Superintendent the Eleventh
Census, will endeavor to secure the
statistics of the noble work these assoc
