RIVER POINT.

Edward Pike and family have moved
to Buttonwood Beach for the summer.
To a person passing this village last
evening on the train and observing the
large mass of cotton under the glare OF
100 electric lights IL would seem as though
summer had suddenly changed and put
on the garb of winter. An extra number
OF watchmen have been put on, while
water was poured upon the cotton all
night. This morning the work Of pick
ing and asserting was again carried on,
but it will be winter In all probability be-
fore the job can be finished.
Patrick Corrigan and family Of New
York arrived to-day, and will make this
village their home during the summer

NEWS OF OlNEYvlLlE.

New difficulties have beset the opening
of the electric car line from Olneyville
square TO Thornton. For several months
past the work has been in progress, and
from time to time obstacles have come in
it's way.
At first il was the weakness of the gall
lows bridge. After the grading OF the
street, later other minor obstructions and
now the last but not the least, is the in
sufficient grade on the street in Thornton
at the end Of the line, running down by
the British Hosiery Company's mills.
The Union Railroad Company is Obliged
to await the will of the citizens of the
town for improvements.
The other setback which till day or
two ago existed, was the inability of the
railroad authorities to procure land for
car house which they proposed to locate
in Thornton, having in view lot Of land
near Hosiery mills.
The owner has been away for some time
past and could not be reached, so that
there was necessarily delay. The site
has now been purchased, and building will
in all probability begin at once. With
the obstacles mentioned removed the road
ought to be running by electricity soon,
as the wires are all up.
Prof +. A. ,spratt to Succeed Mr.. Currier.
The Johnston school committee held "a
meeting last evening at DR. +. A. Twitch-
ellis office. The most important matter
coming before the body was the question
of filling the vacancy in the principalship
at the high school, caused by the resigna-
tion Of George Currier.
After brief discussion the committee
chose Prof. +. A. Spratt of Dexter Maine,
TO fill the vacancy. The choice seems to
he an extremely good one as Mr.. Spratt
has had ample experience, having taught
school In his native State for about ten
years. His father holds a government
position In Washington.
The COMMITTEES voted to hold an exam
ination session next Friday at the High
school building to allow ali those desir-
Gus OF applying for teachers situations
to take the examinations.
1t was decided to make the day at the
Grammar school one whole session here
after instead of two, namely, from A.
NJ till Il. NJ, instead OF from until
with an intermission.

who resides at 50 Gray street, entered the
sixth police station with stream of blood

Keough the sewer contractor, had while
ne was doing his work, assaulted him
with "a stone.
He said that Keough was dumb and
had told him to do something which he
Immediately proceeded to perform.
Whether he was too slow or was going
about it improperly he did not know, but
he dia know that he was hit by Keough
without the slightest provocation. He
will prosecute for damages.

The NEWS reporter, after gaining care
full estimate of the political situation as
it now stands, is confident in saying that
IL the members OF the g. q. p. will put
their shoulders to the wheel there will be
such revolution in town politics In the
coming national election as was never be-
fore experienced. Many OF the members of
The Grand Army will vote the Republican
ticket this year who have always voted
before for a Democratic candidate. The
statement OF the number Of pension bills
Cleveland vetoed while in Office and which
was published In the columns OF the NEWS
has attracted wide spread attention
throughout the town and single copy OF
the NEWS has been borrowed by six diff
fereut farmers.
There is also growing split In the
ranks of the Democracy aud as in War
wick number will support the Peoples

FOR THE FARMERS.
How the Crops are PrOspering
Throughout the State.

Cherries and Pears Will be Poor in
Some COunties--HOps are Late,
But a Heavy Yield Is Promised.
Eastern Washington.
The nights have continued too cool for
the most rapid growth of vegetation. Upon
more thorough investigation the injury to
fruit is found to be greater in some coun-
ties than was at first thought. In Guemes,
Island county, not more than half crop
of cherries will be secured; in other por-
tions Of skagit county plums, prunes and
pears were considerably injured by the
frosts Of the End and 3rd. Reports from
Clarke and Skamania counties also state
that cherry and pear crops will be very
poor, and in Wahkiakum county only half
q crop of cherries and early pears will be
harvested; Italian prunes were also badly
injured in this county. The heavy rains
of the fore part of the week still render it
impossible to work the low lands, which
the sun of the last four days has not sufi
clently dried out. On uplands, however,
work is going on rapidly and farmers are
taking every advantage of the good weather
to cultivate such crops as have been
necessarily neglected during the wet
weather. Hops are starting a rapid
! growth; reports from Kent. King county.
state that the hop louise has disappeared.
All crops are late, but with continuation oi
the present weather a good yield will be
secured. The hay crops are unusually
good.
In Eastern Washington there is a de
cided improvement in the condition of the
grain crops. The wire worm had begun tc
/ do some damage to wheat in some local
I
counties, and to barley on the low lands
near Colfax, Whitman county. In none Of
these places has this injury been serious as
! yet, although near Colfax some barley viii
have to be resown. In Northern Spokane
countysome grain in valleys is yellow and
slckly, but on plateaus is bright and grow
! ing we'll. In Kittitas, Yakima and Adam,
counties the heavy rains have been very
acceptable and with rise in tempera turt
the grain is growing rapidly; early grain il
Adams countyls six inches high. Fruit il
lthe northern counties is in full bloom anC
is looking very well. Most of the grain il
Whitman county is sown and started grow
ing. The heavy rains of the 14th caused
some damage in Garfield county washini
out some grain, but on the whole the dam
age is not very serious. Some grain is re
ported rOtttng in Columbia county; thi
condition is limited in area. The we
weather has injured peach trees in Asotil
and Columbia counties to some extent
making them lousy. In northern Wall,
! Walla and Klickitat counties the rain
have assured very heavy yield of grain
Wetting the ground (from several tests) t,
a depth of six feet.
On the whole, while the cold, wet wealth
er has delayed the growth of grain, it ha
not materially affected the prospect for
large crop, and with the present amount o
moisture in the ground and fair growing
weather during the coming season, a heav1
yield is assured.
