LITERARY NOTES.

The Book of the Fair is the only work
in any wise attempting to reproduce in
print the Worlds Columbian Exposition
entire. In this respect it is without a
competitor, ard a perusal of the book
and look at its handsome illustrations
will be the next best thing to seeing the
fair itself. It confines itself neither to
art alone on the one side, nor to dry sta.
tistics on the other, but it presents in
attractive and accurate form the whole
realm Of art, industry, science and learn
ing, as exhibited by the nations at the
fair, and the work, like the fair itself, is
magnificent Many books on the great
exposition have been published in the
past eighteen months, and THE CHRoN-
ICLE has Professionally declined to lend its
columns in praise Of any Of the various
publications purporting to describe and
illustrate the Worlds Fair, but we do
not hesitate to commend the Book of the
Fair as a meritorious publication; every
number is q veritable art gallery, and
from literary and artistic standpoint
the work is above criticism. Published
by the Bancroft Company, Auditorium
Building, Chicago, Ill.

4ite Change ~ the General Condition
of Crops.

% Crops.
The following bulletin has been issued
10 tho office OF the Tennessee weather and
eropseryice for iha week ending Monday
Dur!2e iho past week good and season.
able showers iell over tho greater portion
Of the State, and where thoy fell growing
and unmatmed crops were materially ro-
vyed and benefited. In manY places the
rains were light aud scattered. but alto
gether the reports show considerable im-
provement In general conditions. IN the
extreme western portion OF the State cot
ton has been seriously affected by drouth
which has prevailed in that section, and
tbe condition Of this product Is not as ia
yorable as it should be- at this period
Where seasonable rains have fallen, re-
ports show a fair condition Of maturity
and prospective yield, although the crop
was considerably shortened by the dry
weather during August.
The condition Of late corn has been im-
proved where the rains fell during the
week, and in some places, fair crop is
assured, generally, however, the August
drouth very seriously injured the pros
poets Of this crop. Early corn was also
injured TO some extent, but no reports Of
anything very serious are received
During the dry period in August. tobac-
GO began to fire rapidly and 10 ripen pre-
maturely, causing considerable loss in
production. but where rains have fallen
in sufficient quantities, this has ceased 10
a great extent, and cutting is now in IA
vorable progress and during the pastweek
large quantities have been housed. The
worms have been numerous and doing
much damage, reported especially in the
northern counties.
In the eastern division reports Of the
condition Of all crops continue favorable.
There has been little or no serious lack
ctgnillcient rain in this section as in 9TH
ers, consequently crops are in fine condi-
ton generally.
In the central division rains have been
more or less partial, and some sections
have been blessed, while others. adioin-
ing, have felt the effects of disastrous
drouth. This is true also in the western
division. In the central portions rains
have been timely, but in some of the west
ern counties crops have suffered for want
ofsufficient moisture.
Late crops of Irish potatoes were much
improved where sufficient rain tell, and
sweet potatoes are reported maturing
we'll.
Sorghum has maintained a good condi-
ton and is still reported excellent Cut
ting for syrup and for winter forage has
begun.
A great deal of corn fodder was lost by
rapid firing during the dry period, still a
considerable proportion was saved. Late
hay was saved under rather favorable
conditions, and large quantities of millet
and other forage crops have been stored
away for winter feeding.
Pastures were much improved by the
rain.
Fruit drying has been carried on to a
large extent throughout the State, mostly
under very favorable conditions.
Flowing for fall seeding of wheat and
other cereals has progressed well where
the ground was kept in suitable condition
by the rains.

A CENTENNIAL SUGGESTION

A Nashville gentleman offered CEN
tennial suggestion last week worthy Of
consideration. 81 have always taken a
deal of interest in agricultural matters, -
he remarked TO a reported, "and ] think
the centennial might be used as a most
excellent medium Of advertising the adj
vantages Tennessee offers for agricultu-
raj pursuits, provided the proper plan
is adopted. Now, think it would be an
excellent idea to have a department in
the centennial devoted exclusively TO the
farming interests of the State. Suppose,
for instance, that we have as one of the
exhibits in agricultural hall miniature
farm, on which the principle crops Of the
State could be displayed as they grow
think it would make a most interesting
exhibit to have little plots ten feet square
planted in tobacco, wheat cotton and
other crops adapted to this section, Sc
that visitors from a distance may see
what we can grow here. / think a min
iature farm of that character would be
a great attraction"

AN AWFUL MISTAKE.
\ TOuug Lady Kisses the Wrong
 Man and Then Paints,

A young married man had an ex-
 perience Thuranay night that unfit
 cd him for business next day. He is modest about having his name
 used in connection with the affair
 for fear his marital relations at home would be effected.
 While on his way home down
 First avenue ou the night in ques- ton and when at a point south of railroad track young lady rushed to the sidewalk and throwing her arms about his neck, hugged him as only an impetuous young lady can do and planted q lingering kiss on hIs lips, then remarked Oh Chris, how late you are. you pro missed to bs here at ten o'clock and it is half past, what do you mean, sir, by keeping your darlIug out here in the cold so long? and you havd been drinking too, 1 smell it. on your breath, do not deny sir, and you promised q weok ago that you would not driuk any more."
 The young mau was so paralyzed with astonishment that he could only gasp; and the the thought flashed raDidaly through his mind that if his wife could only see him standing there with a pretty girls arms around his neck what q scene there would be.
 Her power of speech finally re- turned and he started 10 tell the .yound lady that there must be mistake somewhere w1reh a stern voice in his rear startled him by .ssssss;,.[ "What Tn the mischief are you people doing here? So, my fine lady this is the wey you keep a date with me, isit, by standing here kiss another fellow? and,'-here the young lady screamed and keeled over into the arms of the new ar rival. She had recognized in the last arrival the real lover and swooned under the shock.
 The scream brought the young lady's parents out of the house and i during the confusion tie young married man made for home very rapidaly, leaving the young lady to make explanations. He nov goes nome by q different route. \
