Washington, Aug. 29.-The following
is the Weather Bureaus weekly sum
mary of crop conditions:
While the drought conditions reported
Mt the close OF the previous week have
been relieved locally i'm the South AT
9antic States, drought continues with
increased severity in Texas, Oklahoma.
Southern Missouri and Michigan, and
rain is much needed in the Ohio Valley,
the Lower Lake Region, New England
and generally throughout the Southern
and Central Rocky Mountains districts.
Very favorable weather conditions pre-
YAH in Iowa, Northern Missouri. Ne
liraska and Kansas, but as in the pre-
vIous week, reports of the effects of ex
cessive moisture are received from the
Dakotas and Minnesota.
The general condition of corn i'm the
States Of the Central Mississippi and
Ohio Valleys is less satisfactory than
at the close of the previous week, owing
to continued absence of moisture, which
has conduced to too rapid maturity. The
weather conditions in Iowa, Norsnern
Missouri. Kansas, Nebraska, the Da-
kotas, Minnesota and in the Middle
Atlantic States have been more favor
ahle, and generally the crop has made
good progress in these States, although
late corn is somewhat less PROMISING
in portions of Nebraska and Kansas
AM reports indicate that the crop has
made rapid advancement toward matu-
rity.
Reports of injury to grain in shock and
stack continue from the Dakotas and
Minnesota, principally, however. as
result of rains of previous weeks. Tie
delayed harvesting of spring wheat will
be completed by the end of August.
While reports of rust and shedding
in cotton are somewhat less numerous
i'm the eastern portion of the cotton belt,
in the central and western districts the
reports of rust and shedding continue
undindnished premature opening being
quite generally reported i'm the last
named districts, where there is quite
general deterioration in the condition
of the er0p.
Favorable progress has been made in
cutting and housing tobacco. which work
is generally advanced. The late crop
needs rain in Pennsylvania and Ken
lucky.
The previous reported unfavorable
outlook for apples continues, although
some varieties, principally the earlyt are
abundant in portions of Nebraska, Kan
sas. Illinois. Indiana and in the middle
Atlantic States, and Southern New
England The reports generally ind
cate that the fruit is dropping extern
siyely.

especially since Germany has already
done more than could be expected by

He WAS NOT so DEAD.

Macon, Mo-, Jan. GA
stranger, apparently frozen
stiff and killed by a fall
from his horse, was picked
up in the roadway last night
a short distance from here.
He was brought to the city
and taken to an undertaking
establishment, where the
supposedly dead man was
placed i'll a coffin, The at
tcndants paid no further
attention to the body, except
to notify the officials that
an unknown dead body had
been found. An inquest was
to be held today, but all
calculations were rudely up
set this morning when the
undertaken went to remove
the corpse. 1t was gone.
In it's stead was this note,
written in pencil On brown
piece of paper: ..

beds are too cramped; your
niggers don't keep no fire.

the right to hold positions in

Democrat is quite correct,
The bill which passed the

The bill was amended by
striking out "sons OF mem

striking out "all females"
and passed barring all sons

more in accordance with JUS
