RAINS BRING DISASTER
CHANCES OF A GOOD COTTON CROP
LESS, DAILY.
Tobacco Crop, though, is Good and the Corr
Crop Extra Good, Except in Bottoms
Where Water Has Hurt it.

The Weekly Crop Bulletin, issued by
the Weather Bureau here yesterday fol
the week ending Monday, September },
SAYS:
1.-THE weather conditions during the
week ending Monday, September 9th
1895 have in general not caused much,
if any, improvement i'll the crop pros
poets throughout the State. While in the
eastern section and along the northern
border there has been less rain since Sep
tember 1st and more sunshine, over me
remainder of the State, especially in the
southwest and mountain section, cloudy
damp weather continued with rains 1T
many points on every day of the week.
"rhe temperature was above normal
every day with the maximum touching
90 during the middle of the week. On
account of the great humidity the wealth
or was very sultry. The amount cf
sunshine has increased since September
LIST.
"Expectations for a good crop of cot
ton are becoming less every day. In ad
ditiOn to the damage caused by rust,
shedding and rotting of lower bOlls, the
humid, sultry weather is causing open
cotton to sprout in the bolls. Cotton is
opening rapidly, and picking is already
somewhat behindhand, though progress
ing rapidly where not too wet.
Cutting and curing tobacco is now ac-
tive in the north-central portion of the
State and probably the bulk of the crop
remaining will be safely housed within
the next ten days. On the whole, the
crop has turned out to be Il very good
one. though lately some complaints of
poor cures have been received from three
or four counties. There has been lit-
tie damage to standing tobacco by the
second growth and worms.
THE corn crop is still considered extra
good. except ON bottoms where injured
by freshest or standing water. Some
smut and rotting is reported. The con
ditionS have been extremely unfayorabie
for saving fodder; n good deal has fired
on the stalk and much which was pulled
in time was ruined by rotting, so that.
except locally, not much good fodder was
saved.
''There would be a fine crop of hay,
but it is being saved with difficulty.
nice is fine and cutting has com
menced.
Some early peanuts have been dug,
with better returns than expected.
Making syrup from sorghum cane
has begun.
Late vegetables are almost total
failure.
open weather is now very necessary
for harvesting"

WHOLESOME ADVICE.
For People Whose Stomachs are Weak
and Digestion Poor.

DIR. Harlandson, whose opinion in dis
eases is worthy of attention. says when
4 man or woman comes to me complain
ing of Indigestion loss of appetite. sour
stomach, belching, sour waterrisings,
headaches, sleeplessness. lack Of ambi-
ton and general run down nervous
condition ! advise them to take after
each meal one or two of Stuart's Dys-
pepSia Tablets, allowing the tablet to
dissolve in the mouth and thus minglC
with the food eaten. The result is that
the food is speedily digested before il
has time to sour and ferment. These
tablets will digest food anyway wheth
or the stomach wants to or not, because
they contain harmless digestive prin
ciples, vegetable essences, pepsin ano
Golden Seal which supply just what the
weak stomach lacks.
| have advised the tablets with great
success, both in curing Indigestion ana
to build up the tissues, increase flesh in
thin nervous patients, whose real tron
bles was dyspepsia and as soon as the
stomach was put to rights they did not
know what sickness was.
A fifty cent package Of StnnrtR bys
pepsia Tablets can be bought at any
drug store, and as they are not - aeCreI
patent medicine, they can be used rs
often as desired with full assurance that
they contain nothing harmful in the
slightest degree; Oh the contrary, anyone
whose stomach is at all deranged will
find great benefit from the use OF
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. They vii
cure any form of stomach weakness OF

"a BOY WANTED"
1t Afforded Amusement to Crowded
Gallery Last Night.

Though there may be those that doubt
it. it is nevertheless fact that the
performance. "A Boy Wanted" at the
Academy of Music last night had some
redeeming features.
For instance, the tough song and
dance by Louis Martinette. Lillian Her
per and Knox Wilson; the musical sketch
by Fred Walz; Wilson's selection from
Tannhauser on the accordion, and now
and then n CLEAN of good acting. by him
or Walz or Martinetti. As for the rest
the least said the better.
For, these days when the temperature
is at 80 and the dullness thick enough
to cut, | doubt if we should draw too
strict a line on the amusements furnish
ed us. 1t is too much like looking n
gift horse in the mouth. These dull.
hot days we are grateful for anything
that will afford us an hour of amuse-
ment.
That is what "a Boy Wanted" did last
night for perhaps two hundred people.
But n little later in the season Raleigh
theatre goers will expect something bet
ter and they will be satisfied with moth
ing quite so bad.
