Weather aud Crop Service for the
week ending August 26 says;
The drouth continues unbroken
over most OF the state, and as a result
vegetation is suffering seriously, In
few localities light showers have oc-
Cured, but the territory covered has
been generally very limited. Where
these showers have fallen crops have
been temporarily revived, but the gen
eral conditions Of crops throughout
the major portion of the state are
much worse than ut any time dnring
the present season. Most crops are
now so fer advanced that rain can do
but little good. The damage from
dry weather has been comparatively
light in the eastern portions OF the
state, where several showers have oc-
Cured, but no rain has fallen in those
sections during the past ten days, and
complaints of slight injury to corn and
tobacco ara now being received from
East Tennessee.
Tobacco has made no improvement
during the past week. On the hills it
is drying up. Much of the crop is
ripening prematurely and is being
cut. In many cases the leaves are no
larger than mans hand. 1t is
thought that farely good crop may
yet be made in the northeastern
counties, but the average for the state
will be fully so per cent. less than the
average.
The peanut crop has been cut short
fully one-half. This is due to lack OF
sufficient moisture and excess to sun
shine.
Late corn is a complete failure in
many localities in the middle and
western divisions, and has been slight,
ly damaged in the east. This crop
will give very small yield.
Cotton is doing little or no good. il
is damaged fully one-tbird. In some
localities rust is doing great injury
and the plant is suffering generally
from the effects of cool nights and hot
days.
Gardens are badly parched and
many of the late vegetables are dying
for the want Of rain. Sweet and late
Irish potatoes are also suffering and
their yield will be much below the
average.
The fruit crop is very short and in
ferior. Apples are all dropping from
the trees and peaches are falling be-
fore ripening. Most of the peaches
are very small and worthless.
Pastures are failing rapidly and
stock is losing flesh. In many local.
ties stock water is very scarce
Streams and wells are drying up in
portions Of Middle and West Tennes

JAMESTOWN, n. D., Nov. 14.-On the
Sd and 4th insts. the jamestown papers
recorded the marriage, by a weIl-known
clergyman of this city, of w. L. Wright
and Mrs. Elizabeth Reader, a widow
with three children. both of La Moure,
La Moure county. At the time Wright
stated to your correspondent that he
had been recently successful III secur-
ing judgment against a threshing ma

OF an arm, of which amount he had Iust
received 81, ,22O. Whether this statement
is true or not is not known here.
A copy of jamestown paper fell into
the hands of w. Il. Ellis, of Cakes, at
torney for Mrs. w. L. Wright, who is
at once set on foot.
Sunday Mrs. Wright. the aggrieved
wife, arrived in the city and proceeded
to Investigate. The only evidence of
her husband having been here was an
entry OH hotel register which read
Mr.. and Mrs. w. l.. Wright, La
Moure" Room 6. A search in the rec
ords OF the county judge revealed the
issuance OF no marriage license. and the
minister alleged to have married the
couple states that lie never met either.
From the friend accompanying the
real Mrs. Wright it was learned that
upon certain occasion this year Wright
attempted the life of his wife, but was
only prevented by the timely arrival of
assistance and the fact that her assail-
ant has but one arm. AT the approach
of help Wright fled, but was captured
after about mile run and jailed. The
case was not pushed against him, and
he was finally released OH condition
that he would leave the country. Pre-
vious to the separation Mrs. Wright
supported both herself and her hus-
band, who was out of work for a long

SHIPS FOR HAWAII.
The Ranger and NTohican VIII
Go to Honolulu,


VALLEJO, Cal, Nov. 14.-It is said on
good naval authority that as soon as the
United States ships Ranger and Aiohic-
an, now at Mare Island navy yard, can
be made ready for sea the secretary of
the navy will order their commanders
to proceed direct to Honolulu and re-
port to Admiral Irwin. On arrival at
Hawaii the Mohican will be made flag
ship of the Pacific squadron, relieving
the Philadelphia. which will i'm
mediately proceed to Mare Island
navy yard. The ordering of the
Ranger and Mohican to Hawaii to re-
lieve the Philadelphia is SAID to be due
to the fact that President Cleveland de-
sires 10 concentrate all available ships
of the Pacific squadron in Hawaiian
waters, aid that the combined crews of
the Ranger and Mohican would fecili-
tate the landing of a larger force than
that Of the Philadelphia. Naval officers
here are extremely cautious in COM
menting on the present attitude of
Hawaiian affairs, yet do not hesitate
in predicting the concentration of
large naval force of the United
States at Honolulu. Several Off
GERS who were serving on board
the Boston at the time of the dethrone-
ment of Qneen Lilioukalani deny the
story that the marines from the Boston
were landed through any mistake in
interpreting the signals from the United
States consulate. They state thar as o
bowling mob thronged the streets of
Honolulu and the situation was So
threatening TO American interests, that
Minister Stevens. after deliberating
with the senior naval officers. deemed
the landing OF marines essential to
