Moore, who came down for the purpose
filed with Governor Ellerbe the other
necessary papers in the matter of the Pc
tition for the calling Of the election for the
establishment of the new County of
Honea Path. Governor Ellerbe took the
matter under advisement. The Governor
stated yesterday that he had been notified
that the people who are pushing the VIII
liamston new County idea intend to file
their papers shortly. Both these pro-
| posed new Counties cannot be formed,
inasmuch as certain territory is necessary
for each. In order to give the William

| lerbe will wait until these papers are filed,
and will probably order both elections to

| siding in the strip wanted by each of these
Counties will vote to 60 to both Counties
by casting two ballots, on the ground that
if one County fails they can become q
part of the other. It is hard 10 tell what
will be the result if such a contingency

The Weather Crop Bulletin.
CENETRAL STATION,


DEs MONIES, Iowa, Sept. %, 1897,
The past week has been dry, slightly
warmer than usual and almost wholly
cloudless throughout the state. 1t has
been ideal weather for ripening and dry
ing out the corn crop, which will be in
condition for the crib within ten days,
il dry weather is protracted.
Variable reports are received as to the
damaging effect of the recent severe
frosts on the late planted corn. The ex-
tent of injury will be more clearly re-
vealed by the scales, after the crop is
harvested. There can be no question,
however, of the statement that the crop
would have been sounder and better in
quality il it had ripened under normal
conditions.
AS a whole the corn crop is remark
ably large and sound in view Of the fact
that the season was exceedingly unfavor-
able during the time of planting and
cultivating, and since that time the
temperature has been ftful and inter
mittent. Probably 60 per cent of the
total yield will be sound and merchant
able, and the. balance will possess con
siderable feeding value. The roundup
Of the season will show that the soil
products of the state have been abund-
ant and greatly in excess OF home re-
quirements.
The dry weather has greatly reduced
pasturage, and necessitated early feed
ing Of stock. 1t has also retarded plow
ing and seeding OF fall grain.
This is the closing number in the SER
les of Weather Crop Bulletins for the
season.

A most revolving crime was committed
last Sunday night about eight miles
northwest of Carroll. John Blocker,
prosperous German farmer, shot his wife
and six children and then fred cart
ridge into his own brain. 1t was the
next day at nine o'clock before any one
knew of the deed when relative called.
He had to break open the door when he
found the horrible scene. One son,
about eight years old, was not dead at
last account. but he was expected to die
at any time. Mr.. Boecker fingered till
yesterday morning, when he died. The
others were dead when found. No mo-
tive can be found except that Mr..
Boecker's mind had been noticed to be
rather unbalanced Of late. His father
desired him to move off the old home
stead onto his own farm This he did
not want to do and he brooded over it.

The Chicago & Northwestern Railway
company is making great reputation
for progressiveness. One of the last
acts to its credit is establishing new
passenger ticket Office in Chicago which
is 80 elegant and so nearly meets the
needs of it's travelling patrons that it
deserves much credit for it. The new
Office is on the northwest corner of
Adams and Clark streets. The walls are
decorated with beautiful pictures of
some of the finest scenery of this country.
All the counters and furniture are ma
hogany. There is counter space for
twenty buyers at once. Richly cushioned
seats invite the weary to tarry and rest.
A reading room is in connection where
the roads patrons can find files OF all
the leading papers published on its line.
Here are also writing tables, etc. Ad-
joining this room are handsome toilet
rooms. Everything seems to be complete
in attractiveness and usefulness. This
railroad company is leading in realizing
that to make a wait at their Offices cheer
full is to almost surely secure your bust
ness again.
