CONDITION OF THE CROPS.
Maturing of Fruits and Grain RetaFd.
ed by an Abnorma1Iy
Cool Week.

Washington, Aug. 2O.-Following is
the general summary of crop condi-
tions issued weekly by the depart
ment of agriculture:
The week has not been favorable for the
rapid maturing Of crops in the northern
districts eastward Of the Mississippi val
ley, where it has been abnormally cool,
with excessive rains in portions Of the Mis-
souri, and Upper Mississippi valleys, while
hot and generally dry weather prevailed
IN the southern states, and the protracted
drought continues in the middle Rocky
mountain districts. Drought has been re-
Heved in Washington, and generally favor
able conditions prevailed in the Pacific
coast states, although the week was unsea-
sonably cool in that region, and showers
interrupted grain harvest in Oregon DUR
ing the forepart of the week.
Corn continues in very promising cond1-
ton in the principal corn states, in the
more northerly portions of which, however,
it has not matured rapidly under the oW
temperatures which prevailed during the
week.
The reports indicate that early corn over
the northern portion Of the corn belt will
be safe from frost by September to Is,
and the late crop from September 10 to
October l, while over the southern portions
of the corn belt some of the early corn is
already matured, and the late will be safe
by September Is to- %.
Spring wheat harvest is nearly finished
in the Dakotas and has progressed under
favorable conditions in northern Mime
sofa, but was Interrupted by showers in
the southern portion of that state, in which
the crop generally has ripened slowly and
unevenly. In Iowa wheat in shock has
been injured, and large percentage ruined
by wet weather. Harvesting was also in
terrupted on the north Pacific coast, but
Is we'll advanced in Washington.
Further reports Of damage to oats in
shock are received from the Ohio and upper
Mississippi valleys. Harvesting is unfin-
ished only in some localities in the more
northerly portions of the New England and
middle Atlantic states
The reports respecting apples are favor
able from New England, Michigan, Kansas,
Oklahoma and portions of Illinois, Ohio and
Virginia, and the outlook in Wisconsin is
improved, while in Missouri the prospects
are less favorable and variable reports are
received from New York; elsewhere a gen
orally light crop is indicated.
Flowing for fall seeding has progressed
favorably over the northern portion of the
southern states and portions Of the middle
Atlantic states, but dry soil has retarded
this work in portions Of the Ohio, central
Mississippi and lower Missouri valleys.

CUSTOM SMfl1fR FOR TUCSON.

THE people of Tucson are now mak
 ing another effort to secure a custom snelter for that city. Thomas E. Pax
 ton, of Los Angeles, has approached She old pueblo and given assurances that with sufficient encouragement he will build and operate the smelter. The Citizen says thst mining men ir Tucson are of the positive opinion that custom shelter properly managed would be successful enterprise, and that such an investment would return handsome profits. The proposition oi . custom smelter for T lcson is almos, as old as the town itself and there is no question but what the place is advap. tageously located, but just at the pres ent time, when the rapid decline in copper has thrown a chill over all mining enterprises, it may not be easy to start the enterprise. Still, the peo- pie of Tucson have recently displayed new energy and determination in building up that city and DO one need be surprised to see a custom smelter in there in the near future.

 Although the coronation of King Ed ward will not occur until next June. the coming event is the one absorbing topic in England today. and all are eager to witness what will be the most gorgeous and elaborate ceremony of our time Everywhere in Great Britain preparations are being made for it. The makers of fashionable robes, the court costumers and the jewellers are working overtime. A great deal of hustle and excitement is going on among the peers and peer esses who will be prominent in the spectacle. and new robes and coronets are being purchased. The question my lady is asking most just now is not. 'Is my hat on straight?" but. "Is my crown on straight" For them it will be the chance of lifetime to appear in q coronet, for only at a coronation are they worn.

 The robes, mantles and coronets to be worn by the peeresses are of the same materials as the mems. with similar graduations in the number of bars Of ermine and balls. The length of the trains marks the difference in rank. A baroness is only allowed q train of three feet, viscountess has one and quarter yards, countesses have one and half yards, a marchioness has one and three-quarters yards and duchess two yards.
 No new crown will be made for the queen. King Edwards crown is to be slightly enlarged, but it will undergo no other modification. It weighs thir- ty-nine ounces and was made in 1898. Some of the finest jewels in the pos session of England's monarch are in the crown. His majesty at the corona. non will appear before his subjects in the same elaborate robes worn by his granduncle, George ". This costume consists of three parts. The most im- portant is the "dalmatca" or imperial fooe. It is a three cornered mantle. forming an inverted ', and fitted very closely about the shoulders. All over 1t are small embroidered crosses. Beneath it is worn the "supertunica." sort of short pelerine. having sleeves Of gold cloth embroidered with gold flowers. Above both dalmatica and supertunica is worn the "armilla.v which is also of gold cloth, but has a deep ermine border. It is placed on the kings shoulders by the srchbishop of Westminster
 The royal English state coach in which King Edward and bis queen consort will ride to the corona ton is an extraordinary vehicle and was built in a161. It was designed by Sir William Chambers, and the paintings on it were executed by the famous Cipriani. Noth- Ing like it in gorgeousness was ever before or since.

DULL TIMES
 AROUND PHOENIX.

Phoenix is said to be having a very quiet winter. The usual number of winter tourists have not put in their appearance in that city. Visitors from there say business is very dull and a men IS notceaDle. The prospects for water for irrigation next summer are not fattering as practically DO snow has been yet deposited in the moun- tains. Snow storms will have to come heavy and frequent from now till spring to insure even an average water supply for the summer crops. Phoenix is almost wholly dependent on the sue cess of the farmers and cattle feeders of the Salt River valley for its busi- ness. But few mines are directly trib- utary to Phoenix. What Phoenix is interested in more than any other city in Arizona is the development of more water for irrigation. There is scarce ly limit to the Iand that could be re- '.aime1 in that section of the Terri tory-enough surely to support a city cA The Salt River valley cannot make further growth without increasing the water supply for irrigation. It may be truthfully said now that no more land can be reclaimed by the water from the natural streams of Arizona until some system of successful stor- age is provided. The people of Phoe- nix and the Salt River valley and the Gila valley should be up and doing in this matter. With National aid enough water could be stored in Arizona to make it second to no agricultural state in the west. It would give to Phoenix . growth that would make .he mining towns in Arizona look very small. If we are to have substantial future growth in Arizona it must come through the reclamation and settle l ment of our arid lands. This is of more importance to our people now than even statehood or any political | condition.

In fact, it looks like an ordinary old fashioned chimney corner armchair. and any one not acquainted with its history or the purpose for which it is employed would estimate its intrinsic value at about $5. The only thing remarkable about it is a piece of rough hewn stone inserted beneath the seat. That stone was brought from Scotland in 1296 by Ed ward I. of England. On it the kings of Scotland were formerly crowned. It was seized by the English as a trophy of war and taken to London. where it has since remained. It is known as the ''stone of destiny"

CANAL OPPONENTS SEEKING DELAY.

There are powerful fnan> pl inter ests in the United States whi0 will do all in their power to prevent any defi- nite action looking to the construction of the Nicaragua canal, Panama cana, or any other isthmian canal. Now that favorable report has been made by a commission recommending the pur- chase of the Panama canal for $40, 900, 900, Senator Hanna and others are talking about the Darien route as more favorable than either the Nicarag aa or Panama routes. The REVIEW, sev- eral days ago, stated that the canal vas not yet "out of the woods, and the manipulations now going on at Washington plainly show an effort to bring forth every obstacle that prom ises indefinite delay.

It is also gratifying that DO partisl nship entered into the battle for an isthmian canal in the house. Let us hope that the senate will speedily dispose of this question.
