CROP BULLETIN.

Conditions Throughout New England,
from Government Reports.
The United States department OF agri-
culture, climate and crop bulletin OF the
weather bureau, New England section,
for the week ending Aug. 5, contains the
following:
Showers have occurred during the week
that have been OF the greatest benefit to
all crops. The temperature has been
about the right amount of sunshine.
Droughts which have threatened have
been dispeiled, and nearly all reports are
sanguine OF more successful season than
it was possible to expect in the early part
of the season. Rhode Island and south
ern Connecticut need rain, but other To-
cslities ere experiencing the most desir-
ah'e weather.
The satisfactory condition of crops con-
tinues. Late sown grain has been greatly
helped by the rain, and will undoubtedly
make fine crop. Fodder in pastures is
d. ficieHt in some places, and cattle
are being fed from barns, and
some 1--we died in the fields. 1t
is reported that the bees are not
storing much honey, due to the cold
in good healthy condition. The rain has
helped the late sown grain to great
extent. Having is practically completed.
Vegetables and fruits will be about the
same as the average, except apples, which
give no more promise than formerly.
GRAIN-Oats gives promise OF fair
yield, and the harvest has begun. Some
rust has made its appearance in various
districts, and In parts OF New Hampshire
has injured oats badly. Except in
some northern localities where corn
is late, it is well advanced and of good
cnIor; In warmer districts 1t Is tasseiled
and some fields are siiked. Barley is
fair crop. Buckwheat is good crop, and
has bl lssomed. Late sown grain has
been much helped by the rain OF the
week.
FRUIT-App'es give no further promise
than in nrevious reports. Early apples
may possibly be fair, but winter varieties
will be light crop. Pears and piums
will he below the average yield. Blue
berries are plentiful, although some are
drying up. Grapes give good promise.
VEGETABLES Potatoes are growing
strangely; the vines grow rank at the top,
but their is nothing in the hill. The
crop is better than seemed to be indi-
csted in The middle OF July, aud in some
cas-, promises we'll. Rust has been re-
ported as having attacked pota-
toes in some OF the cooler districts.
Beans are rusting to some extent.

OBITUARY.
MRS. A. R. DEvEREux.


Mrs. A. r. Devereux died at her home
at East Lamoine last Wednesday night
at the age OF fifty six years.
Though for the past year her home had
been in East Lamoine, she was still con-
sidered as OF Ellsworth from her long res
idence here.
Mrs. Devereux was native OF Castine,
her maiden nsme being Elizabeth
Dunbar. After her marriage she lived
in Bluehill for some years. In 1874
she moved to Ellsworth, MIR. Devereux
having been elected sheriff of the county,
and this was her home until last year,
when Mr.. Devereux was appointed GUS
todian OF the government property at
East Lamoine, and moved there.
Mrs. Devereux had been an invalid for
twenty years. She leaves besides her hus-
band, three children-George Devereux, OF
Omaha, Neb.; Mrs. Fred H. Macomber, of
Seal Harbor; and Miss Ella Devereux, OF
East Lsmoine. Funeral services were
held at the house Friday afternoon, Rev.
j. p. Simonton, of Ellsworth Methodist
church, officiating. Many friends from
Ellsworth were in attendance. Mrs.
Devereux's son George, with his wife and
son, is on his way here for visit. He is
expected this week.

BOOKER +. WASHINGTON
At Hancock Point-The Famous Col
ored Educator to Speak.

At Hancock Point-The Famous Col
ored Educator to Speak.
The most famous negro of to-day is
doubtless Booker T. Washington, princi
pal of the Tuskegee, Alabama, normal
and industrial institute.
Mr.. Washington is booked to speak at
the chapel at Hancock Point on Thursday
evening, August Is, at 100.
The story OF Mr.. Washington's rise
from slavery to the position he now indis-
putably holds as one OF the brightest
minds and educational forces in the coun-
try reads like romance; in fact, it is one.
This story has been compared to the
famous autobiography OF Franklin, but it
remains for William Dean HowelIs, in the
current number OF the North american
ReuieW, to voice what must have been the
feelings of many in reading up from
Slavery )" that the early life of Mr.. Wash
ington lin many ways, strikingly similar
to that of Lincoln. His origin is not more
obscure, nor is there any greater differ
ence in the incentives and impulses they
both had to the making of themselves.
Prominent Englishmen say that we do
not realize, as fact, just what Mr..
Howels says-that Booker T. Washington
is public man second TO no other Amer
lean in importance; that we are slow in
recognizing aim, as were our countrymen
of Franklin.
However the case, Americans, certainly
agree with Mr.. HoweiIs that OF all auto
biographies Booker T. Washington's is
one OF the most interesting ever written.
The charming little chapel at Hancock
Point is likely to be filled to overlooking,
SO many will want to see and hear this
remarkable man,

Those who had calculated upon
making democratic political capital
out of the Schley court of inquiry,
because Schley happens to be dem
ocrat, are beginning to see that their
calculations will not be realized. The
navy department would have been
glad to have ordered a court of in
quiry at any time within the last three
years had Admiral Schley asked for
it, and now that the court is to be
held, it will render every official aid
possible to Admiral Schley, in order
that light may be thrown upon the
dark places in the naval campaign
which resulted in the destruction of
Cervera's fleet. If it be shown that
the department was wrong in its as
sumption that Schley disobeyed or
,ders without properly explaining his
reasons, and that he, displayed lack
of Judgment at a critical period, no
where would there be more satisfac-
ton than in the navy department.
Every record of the department has
been thrown open to Capt. Parker,
who is one of Schley's counsel, in
order that he may have access to
every scrap of official evidence that
will be laid before the court.

Ledgelawn Avenue Extension VIII
Soon be Thrown Open.
The extension OF Ledgelawn avenue has
been built, and is almost in readiness for
opening. Ledgelawn extension, as it will
doubtless be called, crosses the Cromwell's
Harbor road, passing and in almost a
straight line to Robin Hood park, short
ening the road to Seal Harbor by almost
half a mile. This extension brings the
roads back Of Strawberry Hill right into
touch with the town, and the traveller
can hardly fail to note The splendid oppor-
tunity that is afforded for the formation
OF a little psrklike place alongside the
Cromwell's Harbor stream.
The new road plunges into the woods
almost Immediately upon leaving the
town, and crosses the stream four times
within 200 yards. Each OF these little
bridges forms by itself most picturesque
and beautiful bit OF scenery. Besides be-
ing The most direct route to Robin Hood
park, the new road also leads to Big
Meadows on the other side OF Hayden
road, which offers a splendid site for
large race course. The land is absolutely
level, free from rocks and lodges and there
is plenty of room for a mile track. The
character OF the soil is OF such nature.
so springy and yet so firm, that the very

there would be similar in character to

ting the warrants take their course.
Unless he does this, not only is the
usefulness of the distress warrant in
the present emergency ended, but the
precedent thus established would
make distress warrants subject for
ridicule rather than respect in the
future.
1t is hoped that in the week that re-
mains before the warrants are return

to collect back taxes, that trouble and

one for Ellsworth; if this attempt at
