New England Lakes and Their Surrounding
Shores

Cool and balmy breezes combined
with the pure atmosphere of the coun-
try in the depths of a New England
forest, with no disturbance save the
soft ripple of the flowing brook or the
low rumble of the lolling waves, such
are the attributes of the region around
New England's lakes.
Especially is this so of lakes Suna-
pee and Winnipesaukee, whose delight
full situation with neighboring green
valleys, broad forest borderlands and
lofty protecting mountain peaks makes
them two of the most popular lake re
sorts in New England. But they are
not alone in their beauty, for the near
by state of Vermont boasts of the his
toric Champlain and the beautiful
Memphremagog, and the lake dotted
surface of the state of Maine is rival
ed for beauty only by her own mag
nificent sea coast.
The lake sections are the portions of
New England where the seeker after
quiet and the ardent sportsman find a
real pleasure in spending their sum,
mer months in fishing, boating and
bathing in the cool waters of the
lakes.
The Boston Il Maine General Pas
senger Department, Boston, publishes
a descriptive book called Lakes and
Streams, giving good idea of the
beauties of New England lakes and
rivers, and a magnificent portfolio of
Photographic views of New England
Lakes also descriptive books of

magog. =, -,

THE LAT CROP BULLETIN.
Il Tells the Same Story of Eneourag.
inq Conditions.

LINCOLN, Neb., Sept. 13.-The Ne
braska section of the climate and
crop service has issued it's last bull
letin for the year. 1t tells the same
tale of good crop conditions in all
parts of the state. Incidentally Mr..
Loveland says that never since he has
been connected with the department
have the crop conditions been better.
His reports, which are considered au-
thentic, show that the yield per acre
will be unusually large. The acreage
of winter wheat increased materially,
while the acreage of spring wheat de-
clined. Corn remained almost sta
tionary, there being a slight decrease
in many places, owing to the increase
in the acreage of wheat.
: The fact that the department will
tissue no more bulletins is a convinc-
ing indication that corn is entirely
out of danger, in fact Mr.. Loveland
says that the weather during the re-
mainder of the fall will have but lit
tie effect.

BAD FOR THE DEPosIToRS.
viii Lose Heavily in the Chamber
lain Bank Wreck.

TECUMSEH, Neb., Sept. 15.-There
is much feverish excitement in the
Chamberlain bank wrecking case.
The bank examiners report shows the
whole affair up in such a bad light
that some of the depositors whose
only means were wrapped up in the
bank are now desperate and threaten.
ing talk is made against Cashier
Chamberlain's safety, should he have
the misfortune to again return to Te
cumseh.
Crookedness of every kind and even
forgery and mutilation of records are
charged up against him. 1t develop
ed that the bank was run in the loos.
est sort of way, no check or re-
straint being placed on Chamberlain's
actions. In fact nobody but Chamber
lain himself knew anything about the
banks affairs.
The farther the matter is investi-
gated the worse the thing appears,
till now it is a question of how little
and not how much the depositors will
get.

BERLIN, Sept. 15.-Major General
Henry G. Corbin, who, together with
Major General Samuel B. NJ Young
and Brigadier General Leonard Wood,
attended the German army maneuvers
near Frankfort-on-the-Od last week,
gave out statement before he left for
Dusseldorf denying what purported to
be an interview with him, in which
he was represented as unfavorably
criticising the German infantry. In
this statement General Corbin said:
'My companions and l have reached
the conviction that the German army
in every respect, but particularly in
organization, instruction, discipline
and equipment, is among the best in
existence, if not the best.
"The army excited the idmiration of
all Of the American officers who wit
messed the maneuvers, and we shall
never forget the many marks of dis
tinction and courtesy bestowed upon
Us by Emperor William and his Off
GERS"

LINCOLN, Neb.. Sept. 13.-Gover-
nor Savage and Adjutant General Col
by have decided to adhere to their
former ruling, by which they APPROX
ed the election of Samuel E. Yoder
as captain of the battery of artillery.
at Wymore This latest decision was
given after listening to extended ar
gument by former Captain Murdock,
who is contesting the election. All
of the high military authorities who
had jurisdiction in this case were of
one mind. Judge Advocate General
Browne gave a written opinion, in
which he held that the election of
Captain Yoder was legal in every re-
spect, and Attorney General Prout,
when asked for his views, gave a sim
liar opinion.

making a report that was heard all
