Crop. ANA tile eati,cr.

THE following extracts from bulletin
No. II, issued by the United States
Weather Bureau at Huron give the
condition of the crops in this State for
the week ending August 2:
+. The rains during the week occurred
locally. and in some localities were
quite heavy. The showers we're gen.
erully in sorm of thundcrstorms, and
accompanied by high winds, which
lodged rank grain, more or less, in the
track of the storm. Hail storms were
reported from Campbell, Marshall,
Meade and Pennington Counties.
Heavy rains occurred over portions of
Brown, Brookings. Day, Faulk, Moody,
Pennington and Sphinx Counties, while
good showers occurred over Aurora,
Clark, Dawson, Meade, Minnehaha
and Turner Counties. Outside of the
damage done where hail fell. and grain
was lodged, these rains were highly
beneficial to all crops.
The cool nights the greater part of
the week were favorable to wheat,
which In some counties, was ripeniug
most too rapidly. The advancement
OF corn over most of the State during
the last ten days has been phenomenal,
and many correspondents think it is
now at about the sane. STAGE it was
this time last year.. Barley aud rye
harvest is we'll advanced, oats harvest
begun and wheat harvesting will com.
nience within the next few days.
State considered, the week was fay-
orable. Some counties report rain
needed for fax, corn. millet and pota-
toes, and q few localities for late wheat;
but two weeks more Ut ordinarily favor.
able weather will see the most of the
barley. rye, oats and wheat in shock
and stack. The indications are Thu ct
the yield will be abundant and the
quality excellent.

request that she be permitted to visit tho

way, all was comparatively plain sailing,
and when the two houses met for the even
ing session only IL few minor Items Of the

that he would leave ut IL o'clock ut night,
and that he would ont to tho capitol to
lftix his signature to any bills which might
he ready for him. He made his appear
ancc ut s o'clock.
One Of the last things done by the Senate
was to defeat 81 resolution offered by Sem
ator Call of Florida, for u junketing cx-
petition to Cuba to inquire into the trade
relations between that country and the
United SCates.
At IL o'clock committees appointed by
both houses to wait on the president and in.
form him IL he had no further communica-
tions that Congress was ready to adjourn,
returned and reported that the president
had nothing to communicate Both houses
then adjourned sine die, and the first ses-

plenty of employment at good wages.

a Lively Land Business.

bVsiNE'S transactions at the United
States Land Office ut Aberdeen for the
month of July were very brisk and of
exceedingly encouraging character.
There were thirty-five homestead en-
tries, embracing 5,553.4 3 acres; fifty
two final homestead proofs. embracing
s.al4.57 acres: eighteen final timber
culture proofs, embracing $500 acres.
The cash sales amounted to Sl.673. O5
and 1889 As acres. The State also se-
lected $3.50 acres for the benefit of the
State University al Vcrmillion. The
number of final homestead proofs en-
ceeds that of any previous July in the
history of the Office. The homestead
entries this July beats all since July,
1850. The entire business was moro
h twice as much US that of July last
year.

THE LEHUA WREATH.

The following items are taken
from the above named publication !:
The Lehua Wreath is the ex-
preston of a long felt want. It's
aims being first, to stimulate and
encourage the older scholars of the
Hilo Boarding School in their
work in English composition /;
and, secondly, to furnish variety of
work for the class in printing, and
to secure needed appliances for the
printing room.
The Board of Education has
lately given the sum of 500 to e
used for permanent Improvements
on the school.
All the boys had a holiday on
the 25th and spent it on Cocoanut
Island. They had a good time.
While crossing the channel, COM
ing home, the boat upset and they
had an extra bath.
We take this opportunity to
thank the friends of the school for
their patronage of our magic Ian
tern entertainment, and Rev. T. L.
Gulick for his interesting and
pleasant description of the views.
The sum of sos was realized.
The Hail Church Fair at the
Court House, May 7th, was an
orderly, pleasant affair, netting the
sum of 5000.
"Hello, Cap'nl are these alliga-
tor pears?" asked a Thetis sailor of
citizen. "No, sir, they are what
we call papaia'' "Well, we bought
them for pears"
The macadamized road from
School street is nearly completed.
The labor has been done by the
scholars, and the two mules given
us by Mr.. Kennedy.
1t is pleasant to note the fact
that two of our boys have taken up
land under the Homestead Act.
The Hilo Boarding School Band
was begun by Mr.. Burt in the year
1887, with great enthusiasm among
teachers and scholars, and was
continued for three years. When
Mr.. and Mrs. Terry came, in the
year 1890, the band received new
impulse, and Mr.. P. L. Lord was
chosen leader. He has had ex-
perience in this line, having taught
band music in the States, and has
made the two lessons a week very
pleasant ones for the boys.
The Fall term begins September
9th, 1892.
