were brought up from Mime

been let for the cutting through

the road will be pushed through

the work. The railroad company
finds it difficult to interest CON

An influence is being brought

good a right to represent the
republicans of Polk county and
the new Ninth district as his
rival. He has given it out among
his friends that he is quite likely
to be a candidate.
This may have the effect of
keeping Steenerson out of the
race, and it may force him in.
Polk county may have two can
didates for the republican nom
ination, or it may not have any
at all.
M Some members of the Journals
staff manufactured this out Of
whole cloth, for Mr.. Stephens
has been SO busy selling land
that he has not thought Of con-
gressional honors and troubles.
The article was shown to Mr..
Stephens this morning, and he
states that he has never given
vent to any sutterances, recent
or otherwise, concerning Mr..
Steenerson and the congressional
nomination.
One Of the most active candi-
dates for the nomination is w. F
Street Of Bemidji. Streets
good work in the org anization Of
SBeltrami county made him pop
#ular there and brought him to
the front in political circles at
the state capital. His recent
success in compelling thelumber
barons of Beltrami county to pay
into the treasury some $4,000
after everyone else had aban-
doned the case as hopeless, has.
made him the idol of the county
which is now booming him for
congress.

of Street:

looks too rocky he may be con-
tented to represent the Sixty
first district in the new Mime
1sota house. When Beltrami
county fills up little more and
Streetlis better known, he will
make a very formidable man. I
The Journal goes on to intimate
| that Streets candidacy will
doubtless be resented by Bel
trami's senator, o. Fl. Myran Of
Ada, who is credited with being
Enthusiastic for Grindeland By
way Of a neat little joke the Jour
nal also says:
ssMyran has great influence in
Beltrami, and with Street out of
| the way, could bring a large part
of the county in line for the man
from Warren. Y
This is really very good when
we remember that it was through
Streets influence that Myran
received the support Of Beltrami
county in the last republican SEN
atorial convention.
Senator Grindeland is quietly
taking care that no grass grows
under his feet in this congress

friends that he has the support
Iof nearly all of the members of

THREE CAMDEN MEN
ARE SHIPWRECKED.

Bayside, July Capt. Frank Smith
came ashore at Bayside to-day in a
yawl boat. He was nearly exhausted
and told tale of being shipwrecked
in the Delaware Bay, off Mad Horse
Point.
He said that he, with John Waters
and James Jones, the latter colored,
was on the sloop yacht "Ella,' of
Camden, on a pleasure trip. A squall
struck them last evening about 7
O'Clock and upset their boat, which
Immediately sank.
Waters and Smith jumped overheard
and, climbing into the yawl, cut it
loose. Jones, who was in the cabin
cooking supper, was warned to come
out, but said he was not afraid and
remained in the cabin. He went
down with the yacht and was
drowned. Tt rained heavily and the
wind blew gale. A tug picked
Waters up and tried to get Smith, but
lost sight of him.
Smith, after being out all night,
found his way to Bayside this morn
ing. He was injured about his arm
and BODY.

SIZZLING WEATHER
COOLED OFF A LITTLE BIT.

Saturday afternoon when the clocks
that were working properly indicated
that it was about two hours past noon,
it looked lot like rain. The light
ming was fierce, the thunder rolled
some, and nine or ten drops of rain
fell
But like all the other threatening
showers recently, the storm went
around. About seven O'Clock there
was another storm kicked up, and
this meant something The clouds
were heavy but there was not much
electrical disturbance. The rain
came harder, and it soaked the ground
good. There was good deal of breeze
and the heated air cooled rapidly.
Mercury dropped in the Thermometers
like it had been hit ON top, and living
was really comfortable.
The rain continued for couple of
hours and did world of good to crops
and vegetation.

CROPS INJURED BY HEAT.
weather Bureaus Weekly Summary
of General Conditions.

Washington, D. c., July 9.-The
weather bureaus weekly summary of
crop conditions says:
No serious injurious effects to
crops from the period of intense heat
is reported from the middle Atlantic
states, but from Texas northward to
Nebraksa, including Missouri, Arkan-
sas and portions of Illinois, Kentucky
and Tennessee, crops have suffered to
a greater or less extent. The weather
conditions on the Pacific coast and in
the plateau regions have been favor
able. In Kansas, Missouri, Okla
homa, Texas and Arkansas corn has
been seriously damaged by intense
heat and drying heat, although late
corn in Kansas is in fair condition.
In the states of the Ohio valley, corn
has suffered no injury from heat and
has generally made good growth.
Winter wheat harvest is finished in
Kansas, Missouri, and in the lower
Ohio valley, and is in progress in the
more northerly sections. Rains have
interfered with harvest in portions of
Ohio and West Virginia. In the
Dakotas, Minnesota, Oregon and
Washington spring wheat continues
generally in very promising condition.
In Iowa, the excessive heat has
probably impaired the quality of the
crop by causing it to ripen too rapid
ly. The oat crop in the states of the
upper Mississippi and Missouri val
leys has suffered further injury from
intense heat, but in southern Mime
sofa and portions of South Dakota it
is in promising condition. In the
Ohio valley and middle Atlantic
states the crop has ripened rapidly
under the high temperature, fair to
good yield being indicated for these
districts. A large crop of hay is be-
ing secured in New England and New
York, and haying continues with fair
to good results in the Ohio valley and
lake region. In the central and east
ern portions of the cotton belt, with
the exception of South Carolina and
Florida, cotton, though small, is gen.
orally growing and fruiting we'll. -

notion of Judge Westcott was that all
that could be urged for the punish
ment of Schlachter was to give him
warning, and thereby warning others
not to engage in this same business.
Judge Westcott felt that the punish
ment meted out to Schlachter should
be only in the interests of the State.
Before Prosecutor Fithian replied
to the counsel for the defendant,
Judge Trenchard said that he desired
to excuse the panel of jurors, most of
them business men who had come
here at great personal sacrifice to at
tend to this case, and the gentlemen
were discharged with the thanks of
the Court and the county.
Prosector Fithian held that Schlach-
ter could not appear before the Court
as a first offender, and he urged that
he should be punished to a greater
extent than first offenders had here
tofore been
Judge Trenchard thereupon ordered
Schlachter to stand up, and said to
him that he could not, under all the
circumstances, look upon him as a
first offender, neither did he stand as
having twice appeared convicted in
the criminal courts. In connection
with his having saved the county the
expense of trial, and having through
counsel promised to abandon the
business of liquor selling, he would
impose upon him a fine of $500 and he
to stand committed until the fine was
paid. The Court warned Schlachter
that should he appear before the Court
again, he would in all human proba-
bility be sent to prison.
The Court then announced a recess
until Thursday morning at ten
O'Clock.

VERY SUDDEN DEATH
MRS. LAURA JOHNSON.

Mrs. Laura f. Johnson, widow of
the late Henry R. Johnson, died very
suddenly Saturday Mrs Johnson S
home is on Church street, and her
duties as nurse recently took her on
Oak street, where she has been for
two weeks. Saturday morning she
acted somewhat peculiar, ahd about
nine O'Clock in the morning she re-
moved baby from it's mothers room,
and carefully concealed it in another
apartment. Returning to the sick
room Mrs. Johnson kneeled on the
floor and began sticking pins all about
the bed, and her patient was obliged
to crawl to the very foot of the bed to
protect herself from injury.
Mrs. johnson without uttering a
word started to go down sears. Just
as she reached the bottom steps a
neighbor came in and noticing Mrs.
johnson stagger, assisted her to a
couch, where she lapsed into uncon-
seriousness. DR.. J. J. Smith was hur-
rledly sent for, and found, upon in
vestigation, that she was suffering
from paralysis. The unfortunate
woman did not regain consciousness
and died at three o'clock in the after,
noon.
Mrs. johnson was very highly re-
spected woman, sister of Elmer

BOX KICKED UP
ALL KINDS OF TRICKS.

Box No. 26 of the Gamewell fire
alarm system demonstrated Saturday
night that it could get cranky and do
wrong things just the same as human
ity. The alarm turned in reached
the Court House bell and banged
away in all kinds of shape, but the
big bell on the engine house remained
as quiet as an old time grave vault.
Yesterday Chief Kinkle and Elec-
trlcian Ham made an investigation.
They took out the box, carried it up
to the battery room of the Fire De-
partment, tested it out, and discov-
cred that the lightning had partially
burned it out, so that it would not
register promptly.
These boxes are very complex, in
tricate and extremely sensitive.
Chief Kinkle Immediately packed up
the box and expressed it to the work
shops of the Gamewell Company.
where it will be quickly and thor
oughly overhauled.
Box No. 26 is located at the corner
of Pearl and Lemon streets. The
nearest box to that is No. ~, corner
of South avenue and Mill street.
Should any alarm from the vicinity
of the West Jersey station be needed,
the person acting should go at once to
No ~ or report Immediately to the
engine house.

PRETTY STEAMER
BADLY BURNED.
Pleasure Craft is Damaged by
Fire Saturday Evening.

Capt. Hughes, who recently brought
here the pretty pleasure steamer,
"Elva G. Harvey had bunch of
hard luck Saturday night, and his
craft was pretty nearly ruined by fire.
The sixty feet steamer was lying at
the steamboat wharf, Saturday night,
Capt. Hughes being somewhere up
toYn. Just before ten O'Clock the
vessel was left entirely alone.
About fifteen minutes of ten, maybe
little earlier, people living on Water
street, just opposite the steamboat
wharf, noticed black smoke pouring
from the craft. Convinced that some
thing was wrong, these people hurried
across the river and gave an alarm
from box No. 26.
The Court House bell sounded the
alarm, but the big bell on the engine
house did not strike. Immediately
Chief Kinkle rushed to the engine
house and quickly called the firemen
and hurried the apparatus to the
wharf.
When the firemen arrived at the
vessel they found considerable work
cut out for them. The fire had gained
a considerable headway and was con-
fined almost wholly below the decks.
although little later it worked its
way up in the pilot house.
The firemen worked to great disad.
vantage as it is difficult to get below
decks and the water poured into the
steamer as best could be. It was al.
most eleven O'Clock before the flames
were all extinguished
Capt. Hughes then pulled the
steamer around in the slip south o1
the steamboat wharf, and left her there
so there was no danger of her beine
swamped.
Sunday the vessel presented al
appearance directly opposite in com
parison with her usual trim get up
The decks about the pilot house hat
been burned through, the forward
cabin was entirely Quilted, and the in
terror OF the pilot house was oharret
and practically ruined. The engin
room was also seriously damaged, anc
1t is not unlikely that the machinerv
is damaged considerably.
The flames seemed to have started
IN the forward cabin which makes ex
planation of the origin somewhat
difficult, and many who have investi
gated the matter closely incline to tn,
the theory of arson. The loss will b,
considerable. The boat is valued a
$4,000, and there is some insuranc,
placed in an English company.
The loss to Capt. Hughes comes il
a most inopportune time as the season
is on for fair, and there were seyera
parties to go down this week. TIL,
boat promised to have a very pros
porous season here, as the public wa
taking great interest in her.
