Ed. Register-During the past two week:
the weather has been exceptionally fine fol
outdoor employments. This week we have
had no rain and, As it is quite warm, the
ground IN the fields is becoming parched
and "ground- soaker" would do Us much
good. Just now the indications for rain are
good and it is hoped that We shall be blesse
by abundant showers during the next week.
Oats and meadows ,as well a. corn, are need :
ing rain badly. Corn is looking we II III most
fields, considering the lateue>s If the plant
ing season. Wheat does not promise good
yield. Oats, where clear of sprouts, weeds
and vines look well and if we have plenty of
rain during the next month an unusually
this year IN this section.
The public sale of the effects of Mr.. A. IL.
Laramore, deceased, on the 23u inst, was
very we'll attended and pretty much every

43 cents per bushel. Bacon, from 10ia II Is

On last sunday large congregation as
sembled at Emmaus church. Rev. VIM.
Todd preached from the latter clause of
John xxi, 10. Not having heard Mr.. Todd
preach during the past two and one half
years, | was much surprised at the rapid
progress he has made in his studies and the
consequent Improvement in his delivery.
He is an earnest, jealous worker in his chos-
en- calling and such is his bearing as to cause
him TO be highly respected He is one of the
few ministers who are IN honor, rather than
disgrace, TO the pulpit. Among the con-
gregatioD we noticed Mr.. and Mrs. Levi
W ebb, and their iittle.twin infants, of near
Black, Mo-, who were out here on a visit To
Mr.. and Mrs. Augustus Wood, Mr.. and Mrs.
Jasper Anderson and other relatives.
Last Saturday Miss Ellie Love was one of
gay group of young folks who formed 4
f >hing party near the mouth of Cub Creek.
After the usual length If time had been
passed in the pursuit of the tinny tribe, Miss
Ete returned home, accompanied by Mr..
Emmett Maxwell, Mr.. Geo. Bryan, Misses
Fanny and Mary Eaton and Mr.. Chas.
Loomts of Belgrade and Miss Laura Cole of
Cub Greek. The evening was enjoyably
spent in singing, playing on musical instru-
ments, &c. On the next morning those re-
siding at Belgrade returned to their homes.
Dr., Jno. A. Eaton Of Belgrade was in this
vicinity a few days ago on professional busi-
ness.
Mr.. Miller 5. Barger of near Belgrade was
in this neighborhood recently for the pur-
pose OF purchasing stock. Have not learned
whether he bought any or not
Died, at about 8 P. NJ, on the night of May
29tb, 1890, LUCIEN, the two and one-half
year old son of Mr.. and Mrs. John G. Y0unt.
The poor child suffered much from what
was diagnosed by the attending physician as
a spinal disease. The little sufferer was al
ways puuy child, with very little vitality.
His remains will be inferred this afternoon
in the cemetery at Ammaus church. He
was the only son of his parents and his early
decade will be mourned by them, by his lit
tie sisters and by his grandparents and num-
erous other relatives. r.
