IOWA CROP REPORT.

Weather Bureau.
DIES MONIES, Iowa, May 10.

DEs MONIES, Iowa, May 13.
The average temperature was slight
ly below normal the past week, with
more than usual cloudiness and show
cry weather. The conditions were
very favorable for pastures, meadows
and small grain. Planting operations
were delayed to some extent, but the
work is well advanced in the northern
section, and nearly completed in the
southern section, the reports indicat-
ing an increased acreage of corn In
all districts. termination has been
generally satisfactory in early planted
fields, showing notable vitality of
seed. The fields are in excellent filth,
and the dry subsoil readily absorbs
the heavy rainfall, preventing dam
age from excess of moisture at the
surface. The general outlook for
field crops has never been better at
the middle of May. There are no re-
ports of damage to fruit. from effects
of low temperature.

SLEPT IN A COFFIN.
Hans Albert Gets a Taste OF the
Resurrection.

Ottumwa, May 14.-Hans Albert,
the violinist, who says he cannot
stand prosperity, found himself broke
last night. While in a condition
which has led to all his recent re-
verses, he approached a local under
taker with the request that he be al
lowed to lodge in the undertaking
establishment. The undertaken grave
ly led his guest to a handsome casket
lined with silk. In no wise abashed
the nan who when sober can bring
forth sweet sounds from the violin,
calmly removed his shoes and clam
ored in. This morning he arose from
his gruesome couch, his actions indi-
eating that in his opinion the resur-
rection morn had come. He was
quieted and now vows that his re-
formation is a fact.
