Crop Conditions.

|
pi valleys have experienced another,
the third consecutive week of intense
heat, the maximum temperatures
over large part Of these districts
ranging above 100 daily during the
week, many stations reporting from
100 to l07. With an almost entire ab-
sence Of rain the crops in the region
named have been subjected to most
unfavOrable conditions. In the states
lying Immediately to the eastward of
the Mississippi river very high tenn
peratures have also prevailed, but the
heat has been less intense and its ef-
fects not SO serious as in the districts
to the westward. On the Atlantic
coast very favorable temperature con-
ditions have prevailed, with abundant
rains, excessive and damaging in por-
tions Of the middle and south Allan
tic states. On the Pacific coast it has
been cool and dry, with frost in Wash
ington on the 18th.
The corn crop as a whole in the
great corn states Of the central valleys
has materially deteriorated, and has
sustained serious injury over the west
ern portion Of the corn belt, especially
in Missouri, Nebraska, Kansas and
Oklahoma. A very large part of the
crop is late, however, and this has
withstood the trying conditions of the
drouth and heat remarkably we'll, aud
with early rains will still make fair
crop. This is particularly applicable
in Iowa, Nebraska and portions of
Kansas and northern Missouri.
In Sedgwick county the drouth has
done no material damage as yet, and
in districts unaffected by the grass.
hopper plague there will be fair yield
Of corn, wheat and oats, although the
crop will not be up to the standard.
In localities where the grasshoppers
abound. and this district covers con-
siderable portion of the irrigated lands
in the county, all crops will be short.
WHITE MAN TURNED YELLOW.
Great conservation was felt by the
friends of M. A. Hogarty Of Lexington.
KY, when they saw he was turning
yellow. His skin slowly changed color,
also his eyes, and he suffered terribly.
His malady was yellow jaundjce. He
was treated by the best doctors, but
without benefit. Then he was advised
to try Electric Bitters, the wonderful
stomach and liver remedy. and he
writes; "After taking two bottles l
was wholly cured" A trial proves it's
matchless merit for all stomach, liver
and kidney troubles. Only SO cents.

A Ghost Story.

They had sort of ghost scare
up on Eden street last week. It
seems that when Glenn Wilkins folks
we're away at the Pan, a strange
light appeared in the house each
evening. Herbert Christy first saw
it and went up to the house noise,
lessly, but just as he approached out
went the light and Herb scoOted for
home. 1t wasn't long before William
Maxfeld saw the mysteriousg glimmer,
and so armed with all the power and
authority of First Constable and Col
lector he stealthily moved up towards
the house. The light was there sure
enough; so as he reached the house
he mounted the steps and with bated
breath (no, he hadn't been up to the
agent's) he adjusted his waistband,
clutched his revolver pocket with one
hand and with the other raped on
the door, giving in subdued tones the
sign of "mannOtafraidinthedark,' -
when presto, change out went the,
light and darkness, combined with the
silence of a store that doesn't adver-,
tise, prevailed. After William had
come to, he rallied his forces and
with backward step evacuated the,
premises and sought the safety Of his,
own fireside. The mystery continues
but no further attempts at solving il
we're made. There was the light sure.
enough and it only needed the ap~
pearance of the hobgoblins to make
it a veritable ghost tale.
When Mr.. wilkins and wife re-
turned Saturday evening, the story
was told to them. 1t is said that
Glenn grew somewhat pale, but when
Mrs. wilkins remarked, "Oh, shaw
there's one OF them electric lights
that is out of kiIter and it will 60 on
and off of its own accord vary often" "
Glenn "thanked God and took cour-,
age" He was himself again and Will
liam regained his old time compo-
sure. The entire neighborhood now
safely rests each night in undisturbed
repose, light or no light.
