IOWA CROP REPORT.
Weekly Bulletin Issued by the
Weather Bureau.
DIES MONIES. IOWA. June Il.

DIES MONIES, IOWA, June II.
The average temperature of the
week ending the 18th was slightly
above normal. The rainfall was very
unequally distributed, ranging from
10 of al inch to over 800 inches.
In the following counties some of
the heavier measurements were re-
ported: Grundy, $50; Hardin, 6.ss;
franklin, 6.54; Humboldt, 5.4s; Mar
shall, 5.28; Pocahontas, 4 So; Cedar,
400; Clayton, 3.61; Louisa 80 WASH
ington, 3.69; Muscatine, 81 10; Buena
Vista, 800; Scott, 10. In about two.
thirds OF the state the amount was
above the normal; and in portions of
the northwest and west central dis
tricts the moisture is still below the
seasonable average. The week closed
with fair weather, with indications
of improved conditions in the flooded
and saturated sections of the state.
The damage to cereal crops has been
very heavy in extensive areas, but
with restoration of normal weather
the outlook for small grain and corn
will be materially frightened. In the
relatively dry portions of the state
corn is fairly clean and very promis-
ing. The hay crop is heavy and near
ing the time of harvest. Pastures
were never better, and all vegetable
crops are making bulky growth.

CLASS MEM ENTO.
The Statue and FREEZES Left by O. n
y. ;O2.

The mementoi left to the High
school by class 1902 is to say the
least Immense 1t is u nine foot
statue of Winged Victory" and 1t
takes up all the spare room in the
assembly hall. The statue it, elf is of
plaster paris and is nine feet ana
three inches in height 1t is mounted
on forty-four inch pedestal making
the wholeI twelve feet and eleven
inches. The wings extend three feet
behind thesbody and can be reached
only by good sized step ladder. The
statue has been placed at the east
end of the platform and at first
glance it.seems to fill the whole room.
1t is d beautiful representation but
seems slightly cramped even in the
assembly hall. The figure came in
several pieces and the members of
the class have had quite time get
ting it properly together. The work
Is now completed with the exception
of coloring the joins where it was
necessary to use fresh plaster paris.
1t is fine piece of statuary and
though the general effect is some
what startling it still shows off to
good advantage and the class has
every reason to be proud of its
memento.
In addition to the statue there are
four friezes taken from the
parthenon. Two of these are five
feet by three feet and the others are
three feet square. They represent
equestrian figures and are beautiful
in spite of the fact that many parts
have been worn away by exposure to
the weather. The smaller pair will be
placed on either side of the clock
and the others will be hung some
where in the assembly hall.
The members of the class are plan
ming reception and exhibition as
soon as the work Is entirely complete.

THIEVES IN TOWN.
Grocery Store and Chinese Laundry
Robbed

Thieves broke into the Hickey East
End grocery Sunday morning about
four O'Clock and succeeded in getting
away with three cents cash that was
found in the cash drawer and with a
quantity of fruit and canned goods.
An entrance was gained through the
storage sheds at the north end of
the store but no entrance could be
gained from this point to the main
store and the thieves went to an east
side window, removed the grating
and pried up the window to give them
entrance. The amount of goods taken
does not amount to much in value
The thieves could be traced toward
the city by the goods that were drop
ped en- route. 1t is likely that the
burglars were frightened from their
work by the residents west of the
store. A noise was heard and these
people instituted an investigation
which most likely resulted in fright
ening the fellows away.
The Chinese laundry on North A
street operated by Wing Lee was
broken into Sunday evening and
about SIS in cash was taken. The
robbery occurred between Ave and
six O'Clock, entrance being made by
breaking down the door. The money
was in a chest and the chest was
locked, but the man pried off the
lock and made his escape.
