II fui an End 10 The Long Continued feriod Of
Drought

The long drought which has dried UP
the crops and cut down the hay yield
TO the lowest figure in years, was broken
here last night. when a copious rain
fell. Many OF the farmers have entire
ly host their strawberry crop, but some
others. less unfortunate. hope 10 save
great quantities by the present rain.
No rain had fallen here since May 2S
and %. when the storm brought only %
of an inch In the half of the month
Of June not a drop had fallen before
last night. In May the gauge at Hope
reservoir measured only 206 inches, and
in April only ZIP inches. The total for
the two months, i1S inches, was but
just larger than the average for the
month Of May for the last 81 years
3.72 inches. This egure includes this
year also, and hast month had the low
est record since 1891.
To the residents of the city the rain
came as a blessing, for the macadam
streets were in bad condition, notwith-
standing the work OF the watering
carts. tn the farmers the rain was a
boon, and altogether everybody was
glad TO see 1t rain. and is ready Tor
more--as soon as class day Is over.

THE STORY OF A MODEL.

Had it not been for mortgage on
Missouri homestead the world would
never have seen Ashley d. NJ. Cooper's
wonderful painting, "Trilby." There
might have been a painting of that
subject by the same artist, but 1t could
never have been the masterpiece the
present painting is. 1t was that mort
gage that gave Mr.. Cooper his beau
tiful model
Some years ago this young woman
was living the happy life of country
girl on her wealthy fathers farm In
western Missouri. She grew up wild
and free, unrestrained in spirits and
form, living very close to nature. No
corsets ever enclrcled her waist and no
tight shoes distorted her feet. She
grew TO womanhood an unfettered
child OF nature, beautiful in face and
form. Then came misfortune for her
father. The grasshoppers devastated
his fields, and he was compelled 70
mortgage the homestead. The father
sickened and died, leaving his wife
and daughter without resources and
with mortgaged home. They went
to Kansas City, where the mother 5e.
cured employment as a cashier in 0
department store and the daughter a.
cloak model in the same establishment
Their common purpose was to save
money enough to pay OF the mort
