but while the place may temporarily scab

coming as bad or worse than ever. After
awhile the deadly poison begins to eat

spreads with frightful rapidity. Then the
sharp shooting pains, which distinguish
the cancerous from the common ulcer,

brought face to face with the most dread

Weather Bureaus Report on Minne-

The summary of the weather bureaus
climate and crop service bulletin for Min
nesota for the past week follows:
The weather during the week was warm,
though there were no unusually high tenn
peraturee reported, except 100 degrees at
Campbell on the goth. The weather was
showery, there being only two days in the
week without rain somewhere in the state;
the rains on the 1st were general. The
rains came as thunderstorms, with locally
heavy showers which were accompanied by
hail in several places, and high winds which
laid corn and uncut grains fiat to the ground
in many places, but these affected areas were
relatively small. In southeastern counties
some fields are still so soft that binders are
used with difficulty. The harvesting Of early
barley and oats has reached the northern
boundary, and spring wheat quitting has
advanced northward to the middle Of the
state. Wheat still green is said to be filling
well, but in some south central portions it
seems to have ripened too rapidly. In south
ern portions barley harvest Is about finished,
and oat and spring wheat cutting are we'll
advanced. Barley and rye are being stacked,
and a little threshlng Of these gains has
been done from the shock. Some fax on low
lands is not very good, but the crop generally
is a good one; Its cutting has begun in the
southwest. Corn continues to do we'll. The
early potato crop is about ripe. The cutting

To Secure Issue Of $25O,OOO Water
Bonds.

council to secure the issue of $25O,0OO
bonds for the Improvement of the water
supply Of Minneapolis by purposely ab-

Der. s>-. "a. ~...
The law requires unanimous vote Of
the council, so that an individual member
can place himself in a position to defeat
the whole plan. Alderman Ryan Is said
to have no personal antagonism to the
bond issue. If he stays away his object
will be to avoid the Omaha terminal
ordinance, which Is also down on the
boards for Friday night.
It was said to-day that Ryan was not
the only member of the council who
would keep away If the Omaha matter
came up. In the interests Of the bond
issue it was reported that full attend
ance of aldermen could be secured If the
railroad ordinance would be passed until
another meeting.
AS the legislature provided that the
water bonds should be issued within six
months from the passage Of the enabling
act, Friday evening will be the last op-
portunity for the aldermen to vote On the
question. This is one reason why Alder
man Jones is hurrying -: home. The
ordinance has been pending for months
awaiting full attendance Of the council

brought up has been viewed with sus'
