WEATHER STILL FAVORABLE.
The Recent Rain Has Been of lncalcu-
liable Benefit to Crops.

The report Of correspondents of the
Weekly Weather Crop Bulletin, is
sued by the Noliah Carolina Weather
Service, for the week ending Satul-
day, April 25, 1896, Indicate very favor

continued very high until Wednesday,
when cooler weather set in, but the
temperature has not been below the
normal Showers occurred on the
21st, and pretty heavy rains on Fri
day, oath with some hail, butt only
slight damage in two or three counties.
The rainfall greatest in tthe east, has
been of incalculable benefit, and has
broken the drought everywhere, ex-
cent in a few western counties. There
was more than the normal amount of
sunshine during the week.
Eastern District. Reports this week
are generally very favorable. The
breaking of the drought just i'm time,
greatly benefitting all crops, has put
farmers in good spirits, and they are
working with energy. Seeds already
planted will now sprout. Farmers are
now planting cotton as rapidly as pos
stble. Corn where up is looking well,
and some Young corn has been plowed
for the first time. Transplant3ng to-
bacoo has begun. Gardens and vege-
tables. which We're injured most by
drought. are backward, but rain will
bring them out considerably. Setting
out cabbage, colIard, tomato plants,
etc, is progressing. Planting rice
has just begun. Much complaint
about potato-bugs, which are very MT
merOus.
Central District Rain on two days
ended the drought, which continued
almot unabated up 10 the gath, and,
though many places did not receive
quite sufficient rain, there was enough
30 pat new life into vegetation and to
cause seeds TO terminate. Some dam
age bv hail was reported in Arson and
Rockingham counties. Cotton-plant-
ing now making more rapid progress
in south cotton Is being chopped
stand irregular Some young corn
has been worked, and planting of re-
manning crop is being pushed Winter
cats are thin; spring oats have im-
proved. Tobacco plants are plenti-
full, though damage is reported by in
sects;a few farmers took advantage
Of good season to commence trans
planting. The appearance Of potato
bugs, cut worms and chinch bugs is
reported.
Western District.-The showers
which occurred in this district were
less in amount than in other portions
of the State, and few counties are
still suffering from drought but as a
whole crops have been greatly bene-
fitted. A good stand OF both cotton
and corn is reported at many places,
and planting is making good progress.
Potatoes are up and bugs beginning
their destructive work Clover is do
ing well. In the northwest counties
breaking land and preparations for
corn is making good Roadway. On
the high plateaus in the mountain sec
tion the woods are just showing green.
Planting oats, Irish potatoes, garden

THE TURKISH QUESTION.
A Jew the Best Protector of Christians
"A Story on Minister Terrell.

VIM. Il. Curtis, writing to the Chi
cagO Record, on the Turkish question
says: THE Rev. DR.. Dwight is here to
confer with Secretary Olney concern
ing the protection which missionaries
may expect hereafter in Turkey, but
has not received any satisfactory as
surances from the Secretary Of State.
DR. Dwight says that while Minister
Terrell is very earnest and determined
I'D his protection Of the missionaries
as citizens Of the United States, he has
10 sympathy with Christian missions,
and will not admit that the members
of a church i'm one country have any
right to introduce their religion among
others unless they are specially inyi-
ted. IN other words, he thinks the
missionaries should keep out Of Tur-
key entirely because they are not
wanted there.
DR. Dwight says that Oscar Strauss,
who was our representative in Turkey
during the first term of President
Cleveland, is the best friend and most
efficient protector Christian mission
aries have ever had in Turkey, al
though he is not an orthodox. Mr..
Strauss Isl the well-known writer on
Jewish history and is member of the
firm Of r. Fl. Macy & Co, the New York
merchants.
Mr.. Tcrrell's friends tell good story
of the familiar manner in which he
talks to the sultan. 1t is said that
while they were dining together one
day at the palace his imperial majesty
remarked that he regretted to learn
