WHEN TO EXPECT RAIN.-For several days
past the weather has been quite pleasant for
this season. At this writing Tuesday, the
skies are overcast with clouds indicating mois-
ture in the air, but the temperature Is a little
too high to condense it into rain. The temper.
ature will probably be reduced during the
night or tomorrow wv ednesday) and then we
may expect rain which is now much needed.
When cool weather succeeds warm weather
we may expect rain. 1t never rains when the
weather is becoming warmer. but always when
1t becomes cooler. Ualess 1t gets cooler, 1t
will not rain

Crock CASTLE" ON WHISTLE CREEK
BURNT.-Ihe house of Mr.. VIM. G. Agsor
on Whistle creek, near Old Monmouth
church, was burned on Tuesday night.
The fire was discovered in the kitchen
wing about three O'CLOCK q. N. by Miss
Addie Agnor. who was awakened by the
flames, and was then so far under way that
any attempts at checking it we're futile.
They succeeded in getting out large part
of the furniture. The fire was supposed to
have caught from the kitchen stove. The
loss is estimated at about So, 600. and there
was an insurance upon it in the Rockbridge
Mutual company for $4,000.
This old mansion, known as "Rock Cas-
tle,' is one of the Oldest and best known
residences in the county. 1t is one of a
series of substantial old stone houses of
the county that were built about 100 years
ago. This house is said to have been built
at the same time and by the same man who
erected the old stone church which stands
near it. The church Hiding was nut up
in 1789.-Rockbridge Nescs, Nov. 9th.

THE BULL. KILLED The BEAR.-Al-
though two men were at work cutting IN.
derbrush within few rods of the spot, a
bear invaded field on William Barker's
farm on Ball Hill, Pa, on Thursday, his
intention plainly being to capture one of
the sheep that were pasturing in the field.
Barker, who was one of the men cutting
brush, Sc the be IT, and hurried the other
man to the house to get Barker's gun. Bar
ker himself started on run for the pasture
for the purpose of protecting his sheep from
the bear, but neither the gun nor the pres.
ence of Barker was necessary. Besides
the sheep some COWS and a two-year- old
Jersey bull were pasturing in the field.
The bull no sooner saw the bear eGging
and crouchiDg along toward the sheep than
he charged upon him, and caught him with
his horns square in the side. The bear
did not have time to defend himself, the
bulls rush was SO quick and sudden, and
be was lifted clear off the ground, and
thrown several feet, falling heavily to the
ground. The bear quickly regained his
feet, and not relishing the reception he had
met with in the pasture started to run
away. But the bull followed him like q
| tornado and struck the bear again at full
Roadway, tumbling bruin heels over head.
The bear made up his mind to fight, and
got on his feet before the bull charged on
him again. He received the bull this time
standing on his hind feet. Both the BULBS
horns penetrated the bears breast their
full length. and at the same instant the bear
sank claw in each of the bulls shoulders.
The bear ripped the. flesh from the bull in
long, deep strips on each side, bat the
bulls horns were in the BEARS vitals, and
bruin fell to the ground and died almos
instantly. All this occurred while Barker
was running to the scene aud before the
hired man had reached the house afser th,
gun. The injuries the bull received vert
not serious. The bear was a very lsrg'

The Cincinnati Price. Current of November
5th, says that mo essential relief from drought
conditions In the West has been experienced
the past week. and the wheat crop has had no
favoring circumstances calculated to put 1t in
q more assured condition. The general status
OF the crop in the West is unchanged. This
does not imply, however, serious disparage
ment to the outlook.
The weather has continued to favor the gath
ering and cribbing of corn, and this work has
progressed we'll. There Ia further evidence
suggestive of the view that previous calcula
lions as to yield are not likely to be exceeded
by the actual results of this crop.
The statement of the Price CaTent last week
concerning corn has been perverted by some
