Hot Weather Needed.

Des Moines, Aug 1.-THE corn
crop of Iowa and especially around
Des Moines, is in a peculiar condition
at the present time. Director j. r
Sage of the Iowa Weather and Crop
Service bureau, recently made tour
thru the country, and reports finding
ears of corn in both the shooting and
roasting stage on stalks. This is I'M
usual The ears in the roasting stage
are crying out for hot weather to ripen
them, and those in the shooting stage
are begging for rain and moisture to
furnish them the whereWith to nil the
kernels. Maturing corn pumps on inch
of water u day and a great amount of
sunshine is required to ripen it. Con-
ditions favorable to both can not well
come at the same time.
On the whole. Mr.. Sage believes
warm weather and sunshine will do the
greatest good for the crop. An occa-
sional shower, he says, would not hurt
but what the crop needs is hot air.
Il would like to see 1t so hot during
the next few weeks said Director
Sage, that the people would cry out
in anguish. We need reasonably hot
weather all this month and during Sep
TENDER. A frost in the middle of Sep
TENDER such as we had last year, would
prove ruinous."
Not only is the hay crop this year
enormous but Director Sage says the
quality is the best that has been known
for some time, and is far superior ii
the hay of last summer. Then there
was good crop but the conditions for
the haying were not SO good and the
hay was not so rich. The rainy days
this year during haying time were
scattered and very little hay had to lay
on the ground after being out in thu
wet Mr.. Sage says that many of the
farmers are talking of buying hay
presses and baling their hay to ship.
There is going to be a good deman i
for it, and the income from its sale
promises to be an important figure III
the Iowa farmers assets this season.
The oats crop will be better this year
than last. Many of the farmers are
stacking their oats to allow them to go
thru the sweating process and will
thresh later. Last year, Mr.. Sage ex-
plains, much of the oats crop was very
poor, SO bad that the horses working
on the threshing would turn from the
oats to hay. Oats are more or less
affected by rust this year, but on the
whole the crop will be superior to that
of 1902. Mr.. Sage is a hearty advo-
cate of stacking and would urge all
farmers to do as much of it as pos
sible

Chicago Aug. 11.-Wheat-There has
been strength in wheat early today, but
the sentiment was so badly mixed that
the market did not advance to any ex-
tent and there was selling on the small
returns to such an extent that reactions
occurred whenever the market showed
symptoms of substantial rally. S.'me
of the large interests that were such
persistent sellers yesterday We're on
this side again today. The buying was
scattered. Locals We're inclined to the
bull side and commission houses Were
moderate buyers There was also some
liquidation on the part OF outside hold
ers Late selling by tired longs was re-
sponsibe for the decline near the close.
The construction placed on'the GOVERN
ment report was moderately bullish, but
the market resisted the attempts to adj
vance it so strongly that local longs
threw over some of their wheat and
caused reaction to under yesterdays
last prices, but there was small rally
at the close. Cables came in lower at
the opening, partly owing to our yes

APPEAL TO THE POWERS.
Macedonian Committee Want Europ
can Nations to Stop Bloodshed.

revolutionar
Sofia, Aug. II. - The Macedonian
revolutionary committee has addressed
an appeal to the powers urging them
to intervene to stop bloodshed in Mace
donia.
The committee asks the powers to
compel Turkey to appoint Christian
governor for Macedonia, Independent
of the Sultan, and to provide for the
appointment by the powers of q per-
manet administrative board.
The appeal closes with the declara-
ton that the Macedonans, who have
now taken up arms. will fight until
their demands are conceded.
Text of Appeal.
The text of the appeal is as follows:
The Musselman's systematic per
secution mas compelled the Christians
in Macedonia and the vilayet of
Adrainpole to institute general rising.
They have had to recourse to this eX-
IRENE measure after eXhausting all pa
cific means to secure the intervention
of Europe to enforce the provisions OF
the Berlin treaty.
Al the present moment intervention
is the only means of remedying the
evil and stopping the bloodshed. Inc
sporadic efforts of the powers to Sc
cure reforms having failed, they result
ed merely in a recrudscence OF TURK
sh fanaticism and government oppres-
sion.
1T is evident that reform measure:
10 be etficacious must include the APP
pointment of Christian governor gen
eral of Macedonia. some one VINO mas
never held off under the porte ans
who must be independent of the Tur-
kish government in the exercise or ms
functions, and the furthern appoint
ment by the powers of joint, pernla :
nent administrative board, with fuli
powers to deal with any disturbance.
Having published the foregoing
facts to the civilized world and made
known the causes which have driven
the Macedonians to despair. the COM
mittee for the Macedonians now in
arms proposes to continue the fight TIL
the object Of their uprising has been
attained.

STRUCK BY SUDDEN SQUALL.
The Shamrock Is DismantIed And Sir
Thomas Knocked Down.

Weymouth, Eng, April 20. - Sir
Thomas Lipton's new challenger for
the Americas cup was dismasted in a
squall shortly after leaving this harbor
preparatory to another trial spin with
the Shamrock l. Her mast as it fell
over the side carried several of the
crew and all the gear and canvas over
board. One man was drowned and
several persons, including Sir Thomas,
who was knocked down hatchway,
were bruised or otherwise injured.
The man who was drowned was a
brother-in-law of Captain Wringe. He
was handing binocular glass to Sir
Thomas at the time he was swept over
board. One of Sir Thomas hands was
injured, but not seriously.
So sudden was the calamity that the
yacht lay wrecked and helpless before
those on board realized what had hap
pened. Fortunately most of the trem-
endous weight of the gear fell clear of
the deck, as otherwise the disaster
must have been more disastrous. AS it
was, only one life was lost, that of a
member of the crew of the collier.

Mr.. A. B. Smith of this place. These
doctors had been treating him for
years and he got no better. They
thought that nothing could perma-
nently cure him. He says:
My kidneys seemed to be so large
that there wasn't room for them, and
at times it seemed as if ten thousand
needles were running through them.
l could not sleep on my left side for
years, the pain was so great in that
position. 1 had to get up many times
to urinate, and my urine was some
times clear and white as spring
water. and again it would be high
colored and would stain my linen.
The pain across my back was awful.

Pills for four days my kidneys panied
me so bad 1 could hardly sit down.

Cinnabar, Mont, April 1s-Presi-

Loeb issued the following statement:
"Major Pitcher reports that the
president and his party have just re-
turned from their eight days horseback
trip in the north of the park and along
the Yellowstone. The party consisted
of the president, Major Pitcher and
John Burroughs, together with an or
derry, the scouts and packers with the
mule train. All of the party are in
excellent health and not an accident of
any kind occurred. On entering the
park the president informed Major
Pitcher that he would not under any
circumstances fire shot at anything
while in the park and he took neither
rifle nor shotgun with him. The party
had some good fishing, and the presi-
dent and Mr.. Burroughs spent large
part of their time in following and
watching at close quarters the great
herds of game, chiefly elk, but also
mountain sheep, deer and antelope.
The party started for the interior of
the park to visit the geysers and per-
haps the falls of the Yellowstone.
