"N0T A SINGLE CHEER. !"

President McKinIev's Icy Reception at

On Wednesday Mr.. Mckinley visited
his home town. There Mr.. Mckinley
had reason to expect triumphant well
come. He had always received it when
he returned there as governor and as
president And now he was coming
with the added prestige of having been
at the head of the nation IN war in
which our arms had been crowned with
the most splendid su ecess.
The Worlds special correspondent
sent with Mr. Mckinley on his tour
gives this account of the reception:
"In the crowd of two hundred of his
own townspeople who were at the Valley
road station when he arrived in his spe-
cial car from Cleveland there was not
only not single cheer but no demon
stration of any kind whatever.
"Only thin row of people lined the
scorching streets, and they were seem
iDgly too exhausted to make any demon
stration.'
We have had several unpopular presi-
dents, beginning with John Adams and
including Mr.. McKinley's predecessor.
But never before was a president thus
received by his fellow-toWnsmen. New

1t is not always we'll for man to let
his patriotic and charitable impulse
dictate his course Of action. A New

turned Santiago hero on the street
eating sandwich of bologna and bread.
Here, don't eat that" said the doctor
to the soldier; "cOme with me and get
something worth eating" The soldier
was willing, and the doctor set up
good meal for him. "Now," SAID the
generous doctor, when the soldier had
finished his repast, 'if you will go
with ne to my rooms you may take a
nice, refreshing bath and .afterward
smoke cigar" The doctor was be-
ginning to feel his bosom swell with
pride at having done a good turn for
one or the defenders of his country.
But when the soldier got INTO the doc
tors rooms he smelled medicines 1t
was smell that soldiers are not used
to. 1t frightened him. he smashed a
panel Of plate glass, yelled at the top
of his voice for policeman and had
the doctor arrested on a charge of try
ing to drug him And to cap the eli

GEORGIA CROP CONDITIONS.
Everything Greatly Damaged Except Rice
and Cane.

Everything Greatly Damaged Except Rice
and Cane.
The continued drenching by heavy
rains has done considerable damage to
all crops in the state, especially cotton
and corn. This is shown by the report
of the weather bureau in it's weekly crop
report.
The report says, in epitomizing condi-
tions: ''Another week of almost contin
nous rains has greatly increased the
damage to cotton, corn, hay and most
all crops. Cane seems to be standing the
wet weather better than anything else
A great deal of hay has been badly in
jured in the field. Cotton continues to
rot, shed and sprout. Cotton that is
open has been badly discolored by wet
weather and some that has been picked
is sprouting and rottng. Late peaches
are rottlng before ripening, and corn h as
been seriously damaged much of it is
rotting sand sproutiDg in the field and
the ground is too soft and muddy to
allow the corn to be gathered. Fodder
has been injured very much. Sweet 20
tatoes and peas are running too much to
vine, and potatoes are rotting in the
ground. All late crous are overrun with
grass and weeds, and cannot be cleaned.
Rice and cane are doing fairly well
Heavy rains have caused overhows in
many streams, and crops along their
banks have been flooded"

Figures Show Probability of Shortage
This Year.
81 For some time past the rain has fallen
in torrents, and it is generally considered
by the ''0ldest inhabitant," who always
keeps up with matters of this kind, that
the past few months have been record
breakers. The weather man says hat
such has not been the case, and brings
forward the records to prove the asser-
ton.
While it is true, says the Constitution,
that up to the present tine we are only
little behind the total rainfall of last
year, still great deal more rain will
have to fall 10 make 1898 a record break.
er. The next two months are consider
ed by the weather bureau as being dry,
and it is probable that they will prove
SO this year.
Al present we are only about .01
inches behind the total rainfall Of last
year. At the end of 1897 the rainfall
amounted to exactly 80 26 inches, and
yesterday the record showed that 81. 25
inches had fallen during the past eight
months.
With the present record to our credit,
and if only the normal is reached each
month for the balance of the year, 81 So
Inches will be the register.
AS regards rainfall, the months of
July, August and thus far September,
the precipitation has been abnormally
heavy and the records show that we are
now only Lie inches behind for the year.
So far in September 3.34 inches ha' Q
fallen, which makes it 1871 inches aheau
for the normal of the month. Normal
is only another way of expressing aver
age, and in this instance is determined
by striking an average of the amount of
rain that has fallen for a given number
of years. Usually the normal is deter
mined after five years, and it has teen
found that it rarely differs very much
from the preceding normal. The yearly
normal now is represented by $500
inches and comparisons are made from
these figures.
If, with the present register of 81 25
inches and circumstances are such that
the remaining months of the year will
be normal, the rainfall for the entire
year will only be .65 inches behind the
yearly normal.

Assembled GRAND TETON.
Hair Raising Feat compIished at a
Dizzy Elevation.

DIZZY Elevation.
Two remarkable feats IN mountain
climbing have just been accomplished.
In one case Mrs. Coburn, wife of the
pastor of Trinity Episcopal church,
Denver, Col, was the first woman. to
setl foot on the top of Mount Evans.
Colorado. In the other, the ascent of
the Grand Teton, on the border line
between Idaho and Wyoming, often
attempted unsuccessfully and by many
thought to be impossible, was accom-
plished by party made up of Rev
Frank S. Spalding, formerly of Denver
and now of Erie, Pa, son of Bishop
John T. Spalding of the diocese of
Colorado; w. O. owen of Cheyenne,
Wyo. Frank S. Peterson of Jackson,
Wyo., and John Shive of Elk, Wyo.
The ascent was exceedingly difficult
and dangerous. 1t was by crawling
upon their abdomens in one place over
a ledge of insecure rock overlooking
precipice with drop of 5000 feet that
the summit of the Great Teton was
reached. The path in some places was
so narrow that progress was made only
by seeking out with the fingers crew
ices in which to secure a hold to drag
the body along. The ascent rivals the
most difficult feats of Alpine climbing.
The Grand Teton is the subject of
hundreds of legends among the In
dams, and is still mysterious temple
of the Great Spirit Of them. 1t had
always been regarded as folly to at
tempt to reach the summit.
