A TRIBUTE.

Died February 81, 1895, after
an illness of nearly three weeks,
Hale Holden, aged seven and a
half years. A very little child,
but how large a void he leaves
in the many hearts that loved
him! The grief of father and
brother is too sacred to be spoken
of here; those who can under
stand it at all, known it best
without words. But his teacher
too-(and his faithful nurse) how
they miss his sweet face-how
constantly they recall his loving
ways, his ready obedience, his
bright questions, his quick an
swers. One brief half hour in
the Sunday school has left an i'm
preston that will last for years.
The intellectual, refined little
face, as it looked up from a row
of other bright faces in the in
FAINT class, was so strikingly
beautiful that the thought came
involuntarily. that the Master
workman had surely no ordinary
place for him in the great worlds
work. But quickly came a pang
at the thought Of the pitfalls and
quicksands that lay IN wait for
him, and a wish that he might be
spared them. How little do we
know the meaning of our own
prayers. But can we weep that
the little feet grew weary and
were so soon set beyond all pain
and harm: The Lord had need of
him, not here, but. there, where
there are no more tears, and the
inhabitants shall never say, l am
sick.

Drouth Conditions Prevail in Northern
and Central Counties.
CHICAGO, Aug. 2L.-1linois weather
crop bulletin: The past week has been
without rain, except very light thun-
der storms on Thursday and Sunday in
the east and southwest counties of the
central section. The fall was so light
that no relief was had from the gen.
eral dryness prevailing throughout the
state.
Drought conditions prevail in all
northern and most central section
counties. Pastures are drying up and
corn has been somewhat injured. The
central and southern counties have
vast numbers of chinch bugs to aid the
dryness. Flowing is progressing slow
", owing to the dryness, but the usual
acreage of wheat will probably be
sown. Fruit is SO plentiful that mar
kets are glutted and much will have
to be dried to save it.
