Another severe electrical storm and
heavy rains interfered seriously with har-
vesting operations in this county last
night. A strong wind accompanied the
storm and did great damage to the ripened
grain. laying II fat in many fields. About
one-third Of the harvest is done at this
time, and with fine weather for the next
few days will be finished in six days more,
but the prospects are for more rain, which
will be very harmful to uncut grain. Corr
is in splendid condition, never looked bet

yield a crop above the average.

The announcement by Mrs. Jane l. Stan
ford Of her intention Of erecting a Young
Women's Christian association building on
the campus of Leland Stanford. Jr., uniyer-
sity has come as a most agreeable surprise
to association workers. The lack OF ade-
quate, suitable quarters has been one Of the
greatest hinderances In the college asso-
citation work. This will be the first college
association building that has ever been
erected and It is hoped that It will prove
but the beginning OF an effort to provide
one Of the greatest needs Of the work.
The Seeretarial institute Of the Amer
lean committee. Young women's Christian
association, will be held in Milwaukee this
year, instead Of at Association house, Chi
eago, as usual. The reason for this change
Is that the exceptionally complete equip
ment of the new Milwaukee association
building will greatly facilitate the work.
The date set for the institute is from
July 22 to August 20. The Milwaukee asso-
citation building is one OF the finest in the
country and was the gift OF Miss Sarah
Plankington of Milwaukee. its cost being
$4,000.
The Worlds conference of Young
m Christian associations will be
held July "a to August s in Geneva, Switz-

The Professional Women's league Of New

woman exhibition to be given under It's
auspices at Madison Square Garden, octo-
Der 6 to IS. 1902. The following para
graph Is taken from the introduction, set
ting forth the object and character of the
enterprise: 1T is planned to make this
exhibition an interesting and instructive
: show Of all that the sex has accomplished.
Is accomplishing and seems IN a fair way
to accomplish, artisticslly, scientifically,
professionally, industrially, politically and
donestically. By means Of an enterprise
eomprehending the expenditure of a large
sum Of money and the utilization Of in
diligently directed energy, the league
hopes to be able to make beneath one roof
an adequate representation OF the various
pursuits Of women in every known country
and In every century. Such an exhibition
was opened to the public in 1900 at Earl's
Court, London, where II proved wonderfully
successful, and the league confidently be-
lieves that, counting on the progress made
since then and upon the superiority Of
conditions In the United States, there will
be comparatively little difhculty in sur
passing the results achieved in England
The exhibition Is for purposes OF numer
alton and description, divided into FIVE
sections. The Industrial section will in
clude all things actually being accom-
plished and in process Of accomplishment
at the garden. The commercial section is
supposed to be composed of such goods
and products as we're completed and ready
for use when consigned to the exhibition.
The educational section will include the
demoEstrations and shows Of the applied
and hne arts Of literature and science,
