WEEKLY WEArHER.cROP BULLETIN.
Two Days Of Extreme Heat and General Rains
Have Favored Vegetation.

Boston, May 22-Following is state
ment Of the weather and crop conditions
of New England, compiled from the re-
ports of correspondents of the weather
bureau throughout the section, for the
week ending May 81:
The weather of the past week has been
unusually changeable, characterized by
great extremes in temperature. Heavy
rains have been general, and cloudy
days have predominated.
The 14th and 18th were excessively
warm throughout the district. The lat
ter part of the week, however, varied
slightly from the normal. Cloudinsss
and cooling rains have caused a low, but
uniform, temperature, and daily ranges
have been slight. No heavy frosts have
occurred during the week.
The weekly mean temperature for the
district is 81 degrees, II above the mean
of last week and above the mean Of the
corresponding week of last year.
Violent thunder storms have been fire.
quent and the loss of some property in
Maine, through lightning, Is reported.
In Maine and portions OF New Hamp-
shire the lowlands are flooded. The
I heaviest rains fell on the 18th, 18th and
10Th. A few reports from Vermont state
that rain is needed. No snowfall dur
ing the week.
In all the states Of the section grass
has made rapid growth during the past
week. In the northern portion of the
sections other crops have made less
progress than in the southern districts.
Most Of the correspondents from Maine
report that the ground has been so wet
that seeding has been impossible, while
one report from Rhode Island states
that the gardens planted are becoming
weedy, because they are too wet to Gull
tivate. Crops in loWlands have not yet
recovered from the severe frosts of last
week. In general the crops were de-
layed, but not destroyed. In Massa-
chusetts, Rhode Island and Connect
cut conditions have favored rapid
growth of vegetation. The extreme heat
of the nth and 18th, and the general
rains Of the 18th, 18th and 18th have
| greatly increased the prospect for all
crops.

WAR IN THE TRANSVAAL.

London, May 22.-Mafeking has been
relieved. A dispatch from Pretoria,
dated May 10, says: "It was officially
announced today that when the laagers
and forts abound Mafeking had been
severely bombarded the siege was aban-
doned, British force from the south
taking possession of the place."
British horsemen, according to a dis
patch from Lourenzo Marquee, are now
close to the Vaal river, within 40 miles Of
johannesburg. The migration from
Pretoria has begun. Women and chill
dren are being sent in trains to Mach
adadorp, on the way to Lydenburg.
Trains are arriving at LourenZo Marquee
filled with passengers, among whom are
many Germans, who are bound for Eu-
rope.
The railway head is expected to be at
Kroonstad today. The congestion of
traffic at Smaldeel delays Lord Roberts
advance, but his cavalry continue active
through a wide radius east and south
east Of Kroonstad.
ne lllIdLlly duN ullSG SlCodllys 0CA-
eral Colville and General Rumble shift
their headquarters each second day.
The Beers are retreating northward
from Harrismith. Raiding and sniping
are decreasing.
Lord Roberts Is advised that little re-
sistance need be expected south of Kip
Rivers Burg, near johannesburg, where
tho no ttyac inc Int |,
position, according to correspondent,
can be turned. The same authority
thinks 1t improbable that there will be
any desperate defense south of Pretoria
and that even the capital of the Trans
vaal is likely to be evacuated. The Or
ders from the war office directing six
more siege trains to go out, however, in
dictate preparations in expectancy of a
siege.
TWenty-one war correspondents have
been killed or have died of disease during
the war. In this respect The Daily Mail
has been particularly unfortunate, 10 Of
its representatives having been put out
! of service by death or illness.

Kroonstad he is using his mounted men

onel Broadwood occupied Lindley on
| Thursday and the same day General
Hutton captured one of the Bothas 80
miles from Kroonstad. General Rumble
on Thursday encamped at Clocolan.
| British successes are thus reported at
every point from which news came yes
| terday
The situation in the field has changed
but little since Friday. Lord Roberts
troops are in fine form and abundantly
supplied. Indications seem to point to
an early movement. His cavalry, riding
over several hundred square miles in a
sem-circle beyond Kroonstad, have re-
ceived the submission Of hundreds of
Free Staters.

Where "The Little rIlnister" Lived.

Mary B. Mullett, writing of THE Real
Tb , of Barrie" in the May Ladies
Home tr Journal, tells of seeing the famous
noyelist at the railway station in Kirrie-
mir (Thrums) ito which the family
n l'n walked together. Mrs. Barrie
Erst slight figure in brown and scarlet,
more English in dress than in face, hold
mo her head rather proudly and walk
inc conddently-she was on the stage be-
foTe her marriage. With her was Miss
barrie, a quietly dressed, rather colorless
woman. not one to draw attention from
thp three men who followed her. The
taIest of these three, the one in minis
tprial black, a high hat on his snowy
head was Doctor Ogilvy, brother to
Barr els mother. The other white-ha
man-doubIed over, as are so many in
tbis land of looms, and wearing great
hobnailed shoes, for he likes to take care
Of the pretty garden at the top of the
brae-was Barrels father. Between
them was a slight figure of boyish slen-
derness. Though small, he was not dap
DER, and we breathed a sigh of relief. AS
he turned we looked at his face with
eagerness.
Tits thin, dark face, almost bag
gard, delicate, sensitive, wistful some
how, but stronger than we had expected
tito be. The dominating sadness of his
face makes almost a real shadow over it..
| He smiled once or twice, but his face did
not once really light up. But sad and
thin as it was, it is face that one would
not soon forget-yes, and that one
would be glad to remember"

IIisrepresented Missionaries.

Statements are appearing i'll the press
to the effect that the missionaries at
Harpoot have made excessive claims on
the Turkish government tor indemnity
for losses sustained during the massacres.
The facts are that the missionaries gave
to United States Minister Terrell an item
lied list Of property destroyed, according
to bis Instructions. This list, revised by
Mr.. Straus, the present minister to Tur-
key, calls for $73 ,S07 tor losses sustained.
All the buildings, apparatus, libraries
and furnishings of the female department
Of Euphrates College, all but two of
those Of the male department, together
accommodating over 500 students, were
totally ruined, also the theological sem
mary aud eight dwelling houses. The
college and seminary are large and were
|weLequipped institutions, and it is
doubtful if the sum asked for would re-
store them to a condition as good as
that previous to the looting. 1t is stated
/ that excessive sums were charged for
loss Of personal effects. For example,
President c. F. Gates is said to have put
an account of $40 for shoes and 1919
for clothing. A copy of the itemized
statement is before us, and shows that
the amounts respectively, are $25 and
s&l+, In other cases the exaggerations
are on a similar scale. When it is re-
J menbered that missionaries in the in
terror need to lay in supplies of clothing
Tor several years, and that transporta-
ton Of goods is very expensive, it will be
seen that these amounts are not extra
VACANT, If those who publish these
statements would consider that the
Question of indemnity from Turkey is an
American and not a missionary ques-
ton, their accounts would no doubt be

Installation Didn't lake PAIGE

Wells, Me-, May 22,-The ecclesiastical
council at the congregational church
here declined to ordain Rev. c. E. Bean
to the UNCONVENTIONAL ministry. The
chief reasons were that he has been a
Congregationalist only short time, and
that as a Methodist his work has been
criticised. A program for installing
Rev. Mr. Bean had been arranged for
Friday evening, but in consequence of
the councils decision it did not take
place.

SOUTHERN GIRL
Visiting Friends in Knoxville.

AZ had been greatly troubled by being
kept awake at night whenever l drank
coffee. 1t also disagreed with my diges-
ton. Last summer / was visiting a
friend in Knoxville. who had been suf-
feriEs from rheumatism, caused by
coffee drinking. She had quit using
coffee and was using Postum and had
recovered also her delicate daughter.
who had been an invalid for a long
time. was greatly benefited by the use
of Postum Food Coffee.
81 found while was there and using
Postum regularly that / slept much
better and grew so strong in my nerves
that the change was wonderful. l trust
my testimonial will be the means of in
ducing others to try your magnificent
beverage. These are true and honest
facts" Miss Frances Smith, 632 Doug
las ST.. Chattanooga, Tenn.
The reason Miss Smith and her
friends improved In health is that coffee
acts as n poison on many delicate
organisms. When 1t Is left off, the
cause of the trouble is removed. Then
if Postum Food Coffee is taken, there
is n direct and quick rebuilding of the
nerve ccnters all through the body, for
Postum Food Coffee contains the ele-
ments needed by the system to rebuild
the nerve centers.
