Speaking of drinking water" said
one of the group of men waiting for
the shower to pass over, relates the
Chicago Chronicle, "the best j ever
drank was on my uncle's farm, down in
Brown county.
We lived on top of clay hill and had
well very deep, 60 feet, l reckon;
but it never had any water. in it until
ten years ago. A heavy snow fell that
winter and he filed the well with snow
balls. He rolled up balls until they
we're large enough to go into the well
cleverly, and then dumped them in
until it was packed to the top. They
were packed so closely that they did
not melt until late the following sum-
iner, but when they did they produced
q supply of water never saw sur
passed for purity, softness or cool
ness. 1t was delicious.
strange to say, this well, always
dry before, has produced plentiful
supply since. The water, while not as
good as that from the ssnowballs, is till
excellent and celebrated throughout
the neighborhood.

TWO NATIONS CLAIM AN ACRE.
That Much Ground In south America
ID In Dispute Between Brasil
and bolivia.

There is a region in northern Bo-
livia known on the maps as Acre
although it comprises many acres of
fertile lands which has been disputed
territory between Bolivia and Bra
zil for nearly so years. The little
country has come into public notice
recently because Bolivia leased a
part of the Acre region to an Anglo
American syndicate. Brazil objects
to this business arrangement, and
has threatened to break of diplo-
matte relations unless the contract is
recinded.
Except that the country is rich in
rubber, little is known about IL. 1t
occupies n triangular space between
the boundaries of Brazil and Bolivia
and Peru and Bolivia, with the Beni
river as the base. The position of
the sides of the triangle as inter-
preted by the two countries Is the
cause of the dispute. A traveller re-
Gently returned from Acre says of
the natives that they are in many
respects like the Bolivians, but that
that there are among them tribes of
lower class than can be found
elsewhere in that part Of the world.
Some Of them are said to be canni-
balls, and all are shy and averse to
the invasion of their country by the
whites. They are experts in the
art of using darts, spears and jaw
elins. and delight in prncticing with
these from the bush on intruders,
whom they usually attack from be-
hind.
They wear no clothes, but have
elaborate headdresses made of feath.
ers and beads, and the younger ones
wear strings of coins and metal
disks around their necks and wrists.
There are no horses or mules in
Acre. and the llama is used as the
beast of burden.

Der such prolonged dry spell and drouth
at this season Of the year. Very little
rain has fallen. for over a month and the
hot, dry winds have absorbed all the
moisture in the top of the ground. The
streams are all very low and many mills
are obliged to use steam, that were not
called upon to use it any last season.
Grass and all crops are suffering for
want of rain. Great forest fires are
raging in the mountains in Lincoln,
Bristol Ripton, etc, and hundreds of
acres of valuable timber land has al
ready been burned over. If rain does
not soon fall the damage from the fires
alone will amount to hundreds of thou
sands of dollars. There was a slight
sprinkle yesterday afternoon and signs
of rain. All crops will be a failure
unless it soon comes.
