From Goodwater.

Ed. RegrSter-Scacrely any rain has
fallen hereabouts during the past
month; consequently the fields are SO
dry that it is difficult to pillow In them.
In fact, some farmers have not tried to
pillow for some time, hoping, from day
to day, that we would at last have
ground-soaking rains nee more. Grain
that was sowed two weeks ago is germi-
mating very slowly and that sowed
before that time is growing but feebly.
The unseasonably hot weather that
prevailed here during much of the
past month did no little to thoroughly
dry out the soil.
Much immature fruit-especially
apples and peaches-has fallen and,
in many places, a considerable portion
of the fruit rotted on the trees; con-
sequently, many orchards that were
expected to yield abundantly, are
almost bare of sound fruit and farmers
who counted upon having a goodly
quantity of fr1it to sell, will not haYe
enough for home consumption.
Sorghum-makipg has been in pro-
gress in this locality during the past
ten days. The yield is generally
satisfactory.
On Aug. 31st, the four-year old
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Henry
Croker, that died at home, near
Clones, a few days before that time.
was buried at the Abbot Graveyard in
this vicinity.
Died-At her home, near Tolu. on
Sept. I'd, 1900. Mrs. VIM. Miller. Cause
of death, senile debility. She was
born in Tennessee. on Dec. Sd. 1927;
hence she was nearly IS years of age
when she died. She and her husband
moved into Iron County DON after 1t
was organized and continued to live
therein until her death. Her remains
we're buried in Pleasant Grove Gene
terry, near Tolu. Her husband and six
children, -four sons and two daughters
and numerous other relatives, mourn
her decease.
On the 9th inst, while H. r. Hen
derson was seated on a log. about seven
feet from the ground, at Crocker's Saw
Mill, he saw a board hat had just been
sawed suddenly approaching him; to
avoid being struck by it, he threw
himself off the log, falling on a scant-
ling; the board struck him in the
abdomen and inflicted a painful injury.
He was hauled to his home at Burgundy
and soon recovered sufficiently to attend
to business.
Born-On Sept. 14th, to the wife of
Harvey Willhite, a son During the
night following, q son was born to
the wife of Samuel Crocker.
Jas. A. Payne went to Palmer on
business on the 18th inst. He has
bought the interests OF all the other
heirs in the old Edward Payne, Sr.,
homestead.
John G. Yount and family. on the
goth instant, moved to the farm he
recently bought near ~Ironton.

THIS item from the Springfield Re-

solid meat:
In calling attention to the Christian

that full reports from Peking were not

respect is that they might have looted
Manila, although they actually did
not loot its sister city of Iloilo when
they had q chance. The argument is,

it does for a man who owns a fine
house and slaps a mortgage on it. He
can revel in the luxuries for a season,
but when the time to pay it. plus the
