WESTERN SECTION.

ing report Tor the week ending July
Is:
WESTERN SECTION.
The farmers of Western Washington
could not have arranged for them
selves better weather for their present
seeds than the bountiful hand of ma
ture bestowed upon them last week.
The first three days were hot, it is true,
the thermometer recording all the way
from 80 to 102 for the maximum, and
no rain fell during the whole seven
days. But the latter days were pleasant
ly cool, and while rain might have
helped the growth of some products, it
would, for the most part, have done
great injury to oats and hay.
As anticipated in the previous
bulletin, last week was devoted to
making hay while the sun shone, and
it is impossible to conceive OF weather
better suited for the purpose. Our
southern and western counties will
have an abundant crop. Haying is
we'll advanced in Skagit county, and
oats there are very heavy; dry weather
until after harvest is much to be de.
sired as rain storm would badly lodge
the oats. Most reports agree that in
other localities, also, the yield of oats
will be heavy.
In some sections fall wheat is about
ready to cut.
The hop reports are very favorable /;
generally in bloom, and not so infested
by lice that spraying will not keep
them in subsection.
1t has been too dry for potatoes and
other vegetables to 10 their best, still
no great injury is yet apparent. Early
potatoes are being dug.
Cherries and raspberries are now the
seasonable fruits; both'a are very good
crops.
Though the prospect for late fruits
has for some weeks steadily decreased,
a fair crop is still left in many To-
calities. A correspondent from Puyal-
lup, Pierce county. reports that pears
will be heavy yield.
While rain is greatly needed to
help pastures and vegetables, and a
few light showers might do no harm,
yet heavy rain occurring before har-
vest is finished, would occasion great
damage, lodging grain, or soaking it
while being harvested.
EASTERN SECTION.
No rain occurred during the week
and hot drying winds, while generally
injurious, matured grain very rapidly.
There is no question but the dry
weather has done injury except in ir.
rigsted sections or especially moist
valleys. Farmers do not expect half q
crop Of wheat on high lands.
In the Yakima country all crops are
doing finely under irrigation.
Around Walls Walla the crops are
in general good condition, and harvest
begun several days ago.
In Spokane county situation is less
promising than last week. Only q
small crop can be expected.
In Whitman county crops are re.
ported as growing finely. Corn has
much improved. Wheat is looking
we'll, except in spots that were burned
by drought earlier in the season.
Near Bemis, Adams county, barley
is about ripe. At Lake Chelan corr
is growing fast. The general prospect
for fruit 10 good.
From Lyle, Klickitat county comes
the following: "Grain is nearly al
cut. Some, spring-sown, is injured tc
some extent, but not as badly as would
be expected under so high tenn
perature, and an east wind for five
days. A cool breeze each nigh,
materially lessened the damage. The
greatest damage was to the fruit CROP

Hoarsely murmured the night winds,
perseveringly yelped the Watchdog,
and wilder grew the wall of the melan-
choly cat. Mrs. Billus sat in silence
listening to the weird voices of the
night, her hands folded in sublime con-
tentment, and her eyes wandering from
her husbands countenance to the sha-
dow of his profile moving up and down
on the wall as the flame in the cosy

NEW YEARS SUPPER.
Auspicious Beginning of 1895 by the
Ladies' Aid Society,"

Over $50 guests were entertained at
supper in the spacious parlors of the
Elm Park church last evening by the
members of the Ladies' Aid society who
inaugurated the work of the new year
in that manner.
The Ladies' Aid society has for one
of its commendable objects the furn-
ishing of the church and parsonage and
has, In the past, been very successful
in raising sufficient funds for the pur-
pose. The officers are: President Mrs.
5. II. Jones; secretary, Mrs. /. +. Me
gargle; treasurer, Mrs. Aria Williams;
who were, last evening, ably assisted
by a subcommittee consisting of Mrs
c. b. Scott, Mrs j. l., Crawford, Mrs.
Hessler, Mrs. Bone Mrs. Fritz, Mrs.
DR.. Hill, Miss Hill. Mrs. Shupp, Mrs.
Underwood, Mrs. Musser, Mrs. Prem
dergast and Mrs. Laubach and staff
of twenty mattresses.
The menu consisted of fried oysters,
pressed meats, scolloped potatoes, des,
sert and other delicacies. A service Of

MASTER PLUMBERS UNITE
Plumbing Merchants Of Scranton Or
ganized Last Night.
OFFICERS WHO WE'RE ELECTED
Tho object Of the Association Is the Social
and Business Welfare of the Members
and Also for the Purpose of Ad.
yancing Sanitary Plumbing.

At a meeting last night in the rooms
of the Builders exchange in the Jer-
myn building, 421 Lackawanna avenue,
an association of all the master plumb
ers of the city was organized and Off
GERS were elected to serve until next
May, when a regular set of officers will
be elected to serve for one year.
The purpose of the organization is
mutual social benefit and business
welfare of it's members. Another and
perhaps dominant impulse in bringing
the plumbing merchants together in an
organized way is to advance the stand
ard of sanitary work.
They believe that plumbing properly
done Is not less than a fine art and is
not trade, and by getting their heads
together and learning the latest, new
est and most improved methods in
plumbing 1t will prove of valuable pub
lie interest.
Idea Met with Favor.
About month ago the intention of
bringing the master plumbers of Scran-
ton together was first formed. When
the subject became thoroughly under
stood, there was not single master
such an organization. Scarcely city
of any Importance in the union is with
out master plumbers organiZa tion.
There is national association known
as the National Association of Master
Plumbers of the United States. It's Of
ficers are: President, John Mitchell, OF
New York; vice-president, l.. b. Cross,
of Kansas City; financial and recording
secretary, II. ]. Patterson, of New
York; and treasurer, William c. Good
win, of Milwaukee, Wis. There are no
salaried officers connected with either
the national or local associations, but
there are very strong sentiments of fra
ternal friendships.
Officers Selected Last Night
The officers of the Scranton associa-
ton elected last night are: President,
II. j. Gunster; vice-president, Thomas
Mullen; secretary, John j. German,
treasurer, John j. Howley. The ma
tional association is made up of about
10000 master plumbers of the United
States, and there are branches Of 1t in
thirty-siX states of the union.
The movement was famed into being
in this city by the active interest of
James F. Traynor, president of the as
sociation of Wilmington, Del. He came
to Scranton on Wednesday and circu-
lated among the plumbing merchants.
They were all enthusiastically in favor
of organizing and every man who had
not pressing business engagement
promised to attend the meeting last
night. There were only a few who did
n hau hal In
timent. William Stephens, promin-
ent member of the WilkesBarre asso-
citation was also present and with Mr..
Traynor explained the purposes of the
association fully.
The next meeting of the association
will be held at the call of the secretary.
The national convention will be held
at Philadelphia some time in June.

DEVICE OF A SWINDLER.
How lie Has the Whole World Collecting
Stamps for Him.

From Pearson's Weekly.
Every few weeks someone announces
himself as the victim of the 1000, 900
postage stamp hoax. 1t is firmly be-
lieved by many people that If 1000, 900
stamps are collected and forwarded to
someone bed will be provided for an
invalid 1boy in some hospital. or a
home for an orphan will be secured or
a large amount of money will be paid.
Churches have been the special vic
Tins, and there is hardly a city in Eng
land, the United States, Australia,
India, or any other country that has
not had several church members, beg
ging, borrowing and helping themselves
to postage stamps in order to make a
million that will go to clothe and feed
some orphan.
The swindle originated in the brain
of "a postage stamp collector at Stettin,
Germany. He desired to get a vast
collection to sort out and sell again.
and hit upon this plan to set the whole
civilized world at work for him gratis.
He preyed on the sympathies of the
people by announcing that an orphan
would be cared for in the Syrian Orphan
home for every 1,000,0O0 stamps sent to
him.
This worked WELL and the next dodge
was the starting Of mythical mission
in China the holy sisters of which were
said to have agreed for every 1000, 900
stamps sent to them to save from the
jaws of the crocodiles of the Yellow
river at least one Chinese baby, and
then educate and Christianize it,
The stamps We're to be sent, not to
Jerusalem or China, but to Munich or
Stettin. The last claim on the sym
pathy of the world that has been made
by this German is that for 100000
stamps a home for an old lady or an
old gentleman will be provided in one
of the new homes-one in London, an
other in New York and a third in Gin
cinnati.
For 100000 stamps d bed will be en-
dowed in a hospital, and for 100000 a
home will be found for an orphan for
one year. 1t is estimated that the Stet-
tin man has collected over 100, ,00O, 900
stamps in the United Kingdom alone
1t is clever dodge to get something for
nothing.
