General Crop Conditions in Ten
neSSee

Local showers in various portion:
of the State were very beneficial in
these favored sections to late crops,
such as potatoes, turnips, some veIy
late corn and cotton and garden
stuff but the rainfall was generally
very light and insufficient over the
greater portion of the State. The
temperature averaged slightly above
the normal.
The late corn crop will be short:
some correspondents say only half
an average yield may be expected
The early crop is still reported an
excellent one.
Cotton continues to open rapidly
and probably one-half of the crop is
open. 1t is generally stated that
the crop will be light one with a
very small top crop. Cotton has
suffered severely in most places from
dry weather, rust and shedding.
Most of the tobacco crop is
housed and the crop is generally a
satisfactory one, being perhaps a
little above the average yield and in
quality very good.
The apple crop is fairly good
one.
In the dry districts fall crops
made no progress during the week
and in some places deteriorated.
The week was favorable, however,
for the saving of hay and much
good peahay was gathered.
Fall blowing has been greatly de-
layed on many farms on account of
the dry, hard condition of the soil.

While experimenting the load
ing of car with logs at the station
here few days since, Mr.. j. w
Hills saw the chain of the derrick
break and fly out in the direction in
which he was standing. Realizing
his danger, his first thought was to
drop behind log, but fearing the
chain would fall on him, and not
knowing the tackling block was at
tached to the chain, his second
thought was to run. Just as he
started to suit the action to the
thought, the twenfy-pound block
struck him at the base of the brain
and knocked him senseless. A cash
of two inches was cut to the bone,
but no bones were fractured. On re-
covering consciousness he was able
to walk to town and have the IN
jury treated.

lars, center pieces and fans pelted
her from all sides. After the
shower ices and cakes were served

Miss Julia to Mr.. Ellis Coolidge, of

home this evening. The handsome
bride will be dressed in dark blue
travelling suit, with hat and gloves
en- suite. The parlor will be bright
ened by potted plants and vases of
cut flowers. At the head of an aisle

the couple will walk, will stand little
