The peanut crop seems doomed this
year. 1t began by being cut off from
Fourth to half by the prolonged dry
weather, and now it's the wet weather
that is doing the damage. The rain
found part of the crop on the ground,
dug, but not sacked, and as there
hasn't been sunshine enough TO dry the
peas, the result is that both the vines
and the nuts are damaged from mil
dew. And even where the peas had
been stacked there is some damage
from the rain being carried by the
high wind into the interior of the

A NOCTURNAL VISITOR. :
Mr.. Gish Surprised to Find Man in His
Hous..

About O'Clock yesterday morning J.
d. Gish, who lives on Fourth avenue
northwest, was awakened by noise in
his front hail aud on investigating it
found 3 man in the act Of going up stairs.
The stranger WAS Immediately captured
aud with the assistance of his sons. Mr.
Gish succeeded in lodging his prisoner
behind the bars of the city Jail. He gave
his name as Blackburn and said that he
had made mistake in the house, as he
thought he was going to the room of a
friend in one of the houses in that row.
He was given hearing in the police
court yesterday morning and he gave
Justice Wood the same statement except
that he had come to the conclusion his
name was Smith instead of Blackburn.
AS he could could give no satisfactory
explanation why he had taken eff his
shoes aud left them on the ground near
the porch, he was remanded to Jail and
the case continued until this morning.
Smith or Blackburn claims to be from
West Virginia, and that he is stranger,
never having been in the city before.

The Boston street-car conductor is

his habit of calling his feminine pas

has not as yet hit upon uniform
method of addressing them, and, in his
indecision, has resort to hi, say"
"missis," and "ma'am," but he will
doubtless settle upon the right thing
eventually. The other day, en- q Hunt
ington avenue car, a conductor, who
had evidently given much attention to
the subject, won special distinction for
himself by the use of the word
madam" in this regard. But there is
no rose without thorn. Among his
passengers was a colored girl, who
carried large bundle, doubtless the
weeks wash of some patron. She ask
ed him to stop at certain street, and
when the car arrived there he said to
the gentle Afro-American: This is
your street, madam" She at once gave
him an angry look, and said with
marked asperity: who's yer calling
madam? Watcher mean by insultin'
me-? I'd have you know I'm lady,
l am" With which she hustled indig-
nantly to the street.
