Special Correspondence TO the TINES.
KENToN, September z. - Master
Samuel Miflin, the infant son of Mr..
and Mrs. Samuel NJ. Taylor, died ou
Friday evening at 7.45 o'clock, inter
ment took place at Odd Fellows Gene
terry, Smyrna, on Sunday afternoon;
Rev. d. F. McFaul officiated.
The canning house here is now run
ming at its full capacity, which is about
$4,000 cans per ten hours. There
were many baskets of tomatoes stacked
on the yard at the close Of Monday
with good prospects Of many more on
Tuesday and Wednesday. There was
some talk about there being a short
crop this season, but from the present
outlook there will be another season
similar to last season.
A severe storm having every appear
ance of tornado passed over this sec
tion last Saturday and was especially
severe in the vicinity of the 'Seven
Hlckorles." The most damage was to
the corn fields which were laid waste
and the stripping of the trees of fruit.
In several instances trees were up.
rooted but no injuries were inflicted.
II was the worst storm that has Wis.
tied this section in years. More OF
less damage is reported in the vicinity
OF Blackiston's and Blanco. Corn
suffered more than other crops and
farmers are much concerned as to how
they will harvest the crop when the
cutting off, time arrives.

FLEMING'S LANDING.
Journalist Arouse From His Rip Van WinkIe
Sleep by the Bu1zing of the Canning Fac
tory, Rubs His Eyes and Looks About.


Special Correspondence to the Smyrna Times
FLEMING's LANDING, Sept. 6.-We
owe an apology to the good citizens of
this town and the readers of the TIMES
which obligation we propose to liqui-
date at once by giving the true rea-
son for not representing our city for
the past two weeks in print. On or
about August 18th after our last grand
effort as journalist we allowed our
tired brain to relax and soon we had
passed into that deepest of mysteries
commonly termed sleep, which no
doubt would have lasted twenty years
like that of the famous Rip Van Win
kle, had not the whirl of machinery in
our cannery aroused and brought us
back to the land of the living only
yesterday. 1t is with feeling of ex-
treme humiliation that we again take
up our pencil, to think we have missed
the important events of the past few
weeks. Anyone wishing to know the
same we refer them to our worthy
contemporary, the ThOroughfare Neck
correspondent, as we find that he has
been making careful inquiry as to our
identity, doubtless with many forbod-
ings and some little jealousy of our
journalistic powers.
Ours is progressive town beyond
all doubts; we are doing something or
somebody most every day. The best
illustration of our progress is the fact
that our chief occupation at present
would have caused our great grand
mothers to go into Mysteries for we
are packing their poisonous Glove
apples" in cans under the scientific
name of tomatoes and sending them
out as staple food for the world.
''The world do move" and we feel that
we are one of the spokes in the wheel
of time, and we feel also that the fu-
ture is not a thousand years away
when we shall be even greater than
this. IRON BRIDGE.

THOROUGHFARE NECK.
Farmers Preparing to Harvest the Largest
Corn Crop Grown in Years-LOcaI Hap
penings and Personal Mention.


Special Correspondence to the TIMES.
THORoUGHFARE NECK, Sept. 6.-This
section experienced the heaviest rain
fall of the season last Saturday after
noon, but fortunately the cyclone that
wrought havoc at Blackbird passed
north of here. Although rain fell in
torrents it was accompanied with very
little wind and no other damage is re-
ported than the washing away of small
bridges and several washouts on the
public roads. No damage to crops
occurred to amount to anything.
Farmers are preparing to harvest
one of the largest corn crops grown in
many years. The corn binder is be-
coming more in general favor for this
work, in fact it has become a neces-
sity since farm help has become so
scarce. Fifteen of these machines
equipped with all modern improve
ments were brought down by boat to
Smyrna Landing last week.

Coal at Morenci.

What may prove one of the most important discoveries in the history of Morenci camp was made last Wednesday, says the Standard. It is a promising vein of coal, located just below the box in Silver Basin gulch.
 Mir. Molder came on the blossom on the mountain side. Prospecting it with a pick he quickly came into body of coal that looks as if it would run into stuff of excellent quality with a little depth. From the bottom of three-foot hole a sack of coal was taken that later proved satisfactory for blacksmith uses. On the vein, almost east and west, the discoverer found a num- Der of good looking surface show ings.
 He has located several claims on the lead under the law governing coal lands and has interested money for development work on the vein This work will be little more than two miles out of Morenci.

Engineers Visit Damsite.

Engineers A. P. Davis and Louis c. Hill, of the reclamation service of the United States geological sur vey, arrived on Tuesday evenings tram and went down to the Salt river storage basin Wednesday morning, accompanied by Mir. Dur yee, the cement expert, says the Silver Belt.
 MT. Davis informed us that the contract for the excavation on the power canal, calling for the removal of 100000 yards of material, was let to Robert Sherer & Co.,, of Los Angeles, and that for the tunnels along the canals, aggregating 1000 feet, to John Futile, of San Fran cisco.
 No other contracts have been let, but bids for furnishing cement will be opened in Washington on the 29th inst. It is not unlikely that bids will be put in for the manu- facture of cement at the damsite and if the figures submitted are near the estimates made by the government engineers, the contract will be given to the lowest bidder
 It is expected that the contract ors to whom the canal work has been awarded will begin at once to organize their forces and that work will begin within few weeks.
