WEATHER CROP BULLETIN.
Condition Of Weather and Crops
During the Past Week.

The weekly crop bulletin as issued by
the MARYLAND State Weather Bureau con-
tains the following information concern
ing crops and weather in Southern Mary
land during the past week:
Fairly temperatures prevailed the frst
two days Of the past week. but the rest
of the week was quite moderate-aoout
normal. Light showers occurred IN Anne
Arundel and the north-central counties.
The heavy rains of Saturday evening
and night seem TO have been quite gener-
al over the State and especially to have
extended we'll TO the western portion.
thus terminating the drought which was
becoming serious in that section. Hail.
in places, accompanied both the Monday
and Saturday thunderstorms. but no
damage OF any consequence happened to
the crops.
In portions where rains fell. they were
refreshing and beneficial. though no
actual sufferings for lack of moisture had
been experienced. The week was ideal
for securing fodder and housing tocacco
in the southern counties.
Grass has improved much in all sec
tons where there has been rain. Young
clover is looking well; the crimson and
red varieties having made an excellent
set. Oats is in fair condition. II IS In
fine condition and maturing with promise
OF good yields in both grain and fodder;
the ears are large and well filled. The
crop is certainly above the average.
Considerable fodder has been cured
already in the southern and eastern coun-
ties.
The cutting and housing of tobacco
made great progress during the past
week. That already housed is yellow
ing down finely; the crop promises to be
an unusually fine and large one. The
later tobacco has greatly improved in
St. Mary's County where it was so ex-
iensively injured by the big hail storm
OF August 2.
i1Tomatoes are turning out well as a
le; they are ripening rather rapidly,
ut nicely, and yielding large; picking is
in rapid progress. The late varieties are
growing well although there is some re-
port OF vines dying. Celery is coming
up nicely. Cabbage is promising, except
in the western counties where IT has been
too dry. Late potatoes are being dug
the crop is still variously reported but
for the most part there is about an aver
age yield, and much better than last year.
Melons continue in large shipments from
north-central and western counties, but
the season is we'll spent for them in the
southern and shore counties. Peanuts
are growing nicely. Sweet potatoes are
reported in southern, but rather poor in
eastern counties. Turnips will be plenti-
full.
Apples continue dropping to large
extent in nearly all sections, but the
reports show that there are still plenty on
the trees and that there will be an album
dant and excellent crop of this important
fruit. Grapes are ripening and will be
plentiful. and the same can be said OF
pears. There is good crop of Bartletts
now going to market.

SICK MAN PACKED IN SNOW.
Heroic Treatment Probably saved
the Life OF Pneumonia
Victim.

Charles f. Robertson, who was
thought TO be dying of pneumonia at
Hartford, Conn, is much better, owing
to radical treatment administered by
his physician. When the crisis came he
lost consciousness, his temperature rose
to 1O7, and various tests failed to bring
back signs of life.
The physician had a rubber blanket
placed under the patient, and bed of
snow was made. Robertson was then
laid in this, and more snow was brought
to- cover his entire body, except his face.
It was packed about him and he lay en-
cased for 40 minutes without showing a
sign of returning life. His family be-
lieved him dead. AT the end of that
time the icy covering was removed, and
1t was noticed that one eyelid quiv-
cred a moment, and there was also a
Pickering pulse.
The doctor struck him blow in the
face, and Robertson opened his eyes,
and in reply to the doctors question,
"Who am II" he exclaimed, Hello, doc
tor" Robertson Is still a very sick man,
but he Is on the road TO recovery.

FUNERAL ADRIFT IN STORM.
HOurs spent I'm Hunting for
Each other.

A hearse containing "a coffin in which
was the body of four-year-old child
became snowbound on Monday at Mas
sau and Kingsland avenues. Green
point, while on its way TO Calvary GEM
etery. says the New York Sun. The
child belonged TO a Polish couple. and
died at its parents home in Catharine
street, Manhattan, last Saturday. UNI
dertaker Norton, of 81 Mott street, ar
ranged the funeral. The hearse and
one coach, in which were the dead
child's relatives. set out for the ceme-
terry on Monday afternoon. When the
team drawing the hearse reached Mas
sau avenue the horses seemed almost
exhausted. The driver urged them on,
and at Kingston avenue the team and
hearse came 10 a stop in deep snow
bank. After considerable difficulty the
hearse was extricated, and then the
driver of the coach turned his team
about and directed the driver of the
hearse to follow. At Nassau avenue
and Monitor street the hearse driver
lost sight Of the coach in the storm.
HcdISt uIlNtI lOSl Ills DtdTlUR
and began to drive his team down one
thoroughfare and up another in his eff
forts 10 find the coach. In the mean
time the driver of the coach had missed
the hearse and also began search.
After driving around for nearly three
hours without obtaining any trace of
1.-THE hearse, the coachman halted in
front of the Bedford avenue police sta
ton and the mourners got out. The
police were requested TO assist in a
search for the hearse.
While the coach driver was giving a
description of the missing hearse it
passed the police station. Two police
men overhauled it and the driver went
TO the station house, where he related
his experience. 1t was after seven
o'clock and too late to continue to the
cemetery. The coffin was taken to Un-
dertaker Galagher's shop at Bedford
avenue and North Sixth street, and kept
there until the next afternoon, when
Undertaken Norton returned and the
funeral party proceeded to Calvary
cemetery without further mishap.

he had united in marriage Otto Mieren-

July 26, 1882.
When the girl applied, with Mr..
Mierendorf, for the marriage license,
the clerk put the usual question: Ever

was the reply.
The clerk muttered something about
the freshness Of young girls, and asked
to see copy OF the divorce decree. He
also informed the girl she must get the
consent of her father before he would
issue the license. Mierendorf produced
a copy of the decree, and then intro
duced his affianced's father TO the clerk.
Mrs. Timm was too young to bring the
suit for divorce herself, and the decree
shows the title of the case to have been:

Experiments.

1t is now eight months since the final
triumph of the laboratory in liquefying
hydrogen. Prof. Dewar, at the Royal
institute, London, the other night de-
scribed the most volatile of gases when
reduced to the coolest substance ever
known. When pure it was a col
orless, transparent liquid of con-
siderable refractive power 1t had
well-defined meniscus, but no
appearance of being a metal, as
Faraday thought it might prove to
be. 1t is not conductor of electricity.
and its density is very deceptive. At
first he thought il might be about half
that of water, but by measuring a given
volume and seeing how much gas was
produced, he found it only one-quarter
that of water, or six times less than the
lightest liquid hitherto known. One
liter weighed only 20 grammes. 1t in

GREAT SCHEME FOR DRIVERS.
New York Man Invents "Post-Visual
Reflector" GInsses-Can See
Horses Behind You.

"TIindsight" is better than foresight
in some contingencies, and man who
appreciates that fact has secured a
patent upon novel little device which
supplies ''hindsight" to the people who
need it most. "A post-visual reflector
is what Allan Taylor calls his new in
vention, upon which letters patent have
just been issued at Washington. 1t is
an arrangement of adjusted mirrors
which enables the wearer to see every
thing occurring Within certain range
behind him without turning his head.
Literally it realizes the proverbial pos
session of Eyes in the back of ones
head"
The post-visual reflector will be USE
full to jockeys, drivers of trotting or
pacing horses, oarsmen, and bicyclists.
Mr.. Taylor, hotel man of New York
city and Boston, is devotee of light
harness racing and a gentleman driver
of renown. He knows the advantage
to the driver who can watch the per-
Torrance of antagonists in whipping
finish," and at the same time keep his
eyes upon the work of his own horse.
The invention was born of the knowl-
edge gained from actual experience.
For drivers and jockeys the post
visual reflectors are fastened to the
bows Of pair of spectacles fitted with
clear glasses OF no magnifying power.
The glasses are also intended as mud
guards to protect the eyes from the dirt
thrown up by the horses flying feet,
The little refectons are fastened above
the glass and set at an angle which
brings the full width Of race track
for distance of 100 yards within clear
range of vision.
Mcdonald the celebrated driver, has
astic praise.
