There are st least three in the state Of

Professor DuggaI s attention as a disease

minutes partly stunned. On recovering
his senses the cyclist looked around to
try 20 find the cause of his extraordinary

It did not want a lot Of finding, for
it was very apparent in the shape Of a
stout rope which was stretched across
the road. The rope, 1t appeared. was
fastened at one end 10 "A gypsy wagon

Whitman, Feb. 3.-The lasters at the
Commonwealth shoe factory here, who
stopped work yesterday on account of
what they consider an unjust decision
upon question of wages by the state
board of arbitration. went in this
morning and finished up all the work
in their department, and then they
packed their kits and marched TO their
hall. One hundred and seventy-two
men went out today. They positively
refuse to work under the price list es-
tablished by the state board.
Manager G. ID. Reed, who represents
the manufacturers. has informed the
operatives that the firm will take no
steps in the matter until after tomor-
row. They are willing to resubmit the
case to the state board of arbitration
or TO a board of review or to consider
a proposition of a committee Of the
men. They will wait until tomorrow TO
hear from the union. The operatives
will take some action today. 1t is like
ly that all departments will have to
shut down temporarily unless the
present difficulty is speedily adjusted.

The past week was sedsonably
warm with considerable excess of
rainfall, and more than the normal
amount of cloud1ness and humidi-
ty. Tbs heaviest rainfall was in the
central and southern districts, but
all sections of the state received an
ample supply of moisture for pres
ent needs. Some damage to corn
and was caused by severe storms of
wind with heavy downpours of rain
in numerous localities; but the ben
etits resulting from the timely and
liberal supply of moisture will be
very largely in excess of the local
and iucidal damage, and the incon-
venience of delaying harvesting OPP
eratlons. In the larger part of the
state early corn is earring finely,
and the condition of the entire crop
is generally promising. Potatoes,
pastures and garden vegetables
have been greatly improved by the
recent rains.
Reports of crop correspondents

and the following averages shown:
