the reply. and, turning to Tom, the
man extended his hand, saying:

first time I've known a woman to be in

Weekly Crop Bulletin.

The mean temperature has been
normal in the south-central coun-
ties and slightly above in other
sections the week closing with
exceedingly warm weather in all
districts. The precipitation has
been confined to light showers east
of the mountains.
The soil is still moist from the
precipitation of last week and
grains and grasses have made salts
factory growth. The opening days
were rather cool for corn, potatoes
and garden truck, but the higher
temperatures of the 22d to Oath
will cause rapid improvement.
Winter wheat is beginning to ripen
in the Arkansas Valley. Early
sown wheat, oats, rye and barley
are well advanced, thrifty, and
promise favorable returns. The
harvest of alfalfa is progressing
rapidly: the crop is good and being
secured without material injury.
The outlook for tree fruits is favor
able and large yield of sugar
beets is indicated. New potatoes
and early erries are being
marketed in Delta, Mesa and Gar
field counties, but the latter crop
is hardly up to the average. With
few exceptions, pasturage is excell-
ent. The water supply is ample
as yet, but failing rapidly in parts
of the Rio Grande Valley.

Landscape Gardening as a Pro-

Landscape gardening is call

be expected to devote some years
to its study and practice before be
could be intrusted with the COM
mission of work of much import
ance, and there is no reason why
less should be expected of woman.
Good work is demanded, and in
order to meet the demand there
must be thorough knowledge of all
its details, and this can only come
through practical experience. If a
woman has aptitude for the profess
sion, and is willing to serve an APP
premiership at it, as man must

Mysterious Case
NEIGHB0RS BECAME ALARMED
The Lady Is Highly Respectable
Resident Of Birmingham and is Held
In High Esteem by Her Neighbors
for Her Good Qualities.

Birmingham, Mich, July 24-The
whole place is stirred up over a mys.
ferrous affair, the victim of which is
in such a condition as to be unable to
make any explanation. She is Miss
Viola Pickering, handsome woman
of 81, who was found unconscious in
her beautiful home, where she has
lived alone for several years.
She had not been seen since a week
ago when, it is remembered. she glee-
fully told her friends it was her 9th
birthday. Several women in the neigh
borhood finally became convinced that
all was not we'll and decided TO make
an investigation. They hoisted a lad
der TO a transom and a young lad
squeezed through the aperture.
He found Miss pickering lying on a
sofa in a seml-conscious state She
tried to talk, but her utterances were
unintelligible. The boy admitted the
women, who Immediately did every
thing possible TO make their beloved
neighbor comfortable. Two remained
to care for her after the others had
gone.
Miss Pickering's wrists were marked
in a peculiar manner, the delicate skin
giving almost positive evidence of the
grasp of a strong man. She has al
ways been considered a model of virtu-
Gus womanhood, and the thought of
what may have occurred is causing
the greatest Indignation.

PERJURER NABBED
Gets Young Wife Under False
Pretenses
TOOK A JAUNT THOUGH CANADA
Before the Marriage Ceremony II Was
Learned by the Girls Parents That
Tasting Was a Married Man and an
lmpostor.

Port Huron, Mich, July 23.-Albert
Hasting and his 16-year-old bride
We're brought back from Chatham,
Ont, by Deputy Sheriff Shannon, and
In police court Tasting pleaded guilty
TO a charge of perjury. The young
couple have had a romantic jaunt.
Several weeks ago the young man,
accompanied by Jesse Van Camp, faith
er of the proposed 16-year-old bride,
applied for a marriage license, which
was issued. At that time he gave his
age as 81, and stated that he had not
been married before.
Before the marriage ceremony il
was learned by the parents of the
young girl that Tasting was an i'm
poster and had wife living. The mar
riage license was returned and de-
stroyed, although the affidavit was
saved. Tasting was warned TO keep
away from the house. One night the
young couple disappeared and they
were traced to Canada.
A search Of the record showed that
a license had been issued to Tasting
in 1899 to marry young woman, and
at that time he gave his age as q. The
case was placed in the hands Of the
officers and they succeeded in locating
Hasting near Chatham. He volun-
teered TO return 10 tue city, accom-.
panied by his bride. He has been
bound over and term Of years stares
him IN the face.

KNOCKED OUT.
Barber Elil Declared Unconstitutional
by Circuit Judge.

Niles, Mich, July 23.-Judge Cool.
idge has just handed down decision
which sustains the position taken by
Van Horn, secretary of the deposed
BARRIERS examining board who de-
clined to be ousted. Van Horn denied
the validity OF the act passed by the
legislature creating a new commits
sion, and legislating him out OF office.
The present SUIT was brought 10 COM
pei Van Horn to surrender the records
to Fillmore. his successor. The court
holds that the act of 1901, under which
complainant claims TO ho.d his Office
as secretary of the board of examiners
of Narbers Of this state, is unconstitu-
tional.
One OF the reasons given is that the
bill reported as a substitute April "a,
1901, was a new bill, ant was not in
troduced till more than SO days after
the legislative session began and it
was therefore void under section A.
article s of the state constitution.
