In Justice ccnrt.

A case of lewdness was be-
fore Justice Hosbrook yester-
day afternoon Gust Bachus, a
fellow from Omaha having
filled the information against
j. p. jersey and a lady giving
her name as Belle Dove from
the same place. 1t seems that
they all three came from Oma-
ha together and conducted a
lemonade stand at the fair
grounds on the Fourth, Bacus
says that Jensey had taken all
the money that had accumulated
in the treasury through the
day and took this way of get
ting even. No satisfactory
evidence was heard from either
side. The defendent paid the
costs and the case was dropped.
Missouri Valley is to be con-
gratnlated for having a justice

curing the riddance of such

Des Moines, Iowa

For the week ending July a.
Des Moines, Iowa
Though the average daily
temperature was 5 toS degrees
below the normal, yet there
was sufficient warmth and SUM-
shine during the week to main
tain a healthy and vigorous
growth of corn and other cereal
crops. Conditions were better,
especially for oats, spring wheat
and barley, than would have
been the normal heat and mois-
ture of the first of July. The
small grain crops are now gem
orally free from rust, and
though short in straw the heads
are filling we'll, giving promise
of fair yield of we'll developed
grain. The corn crop has made
fairly good progress, being gen
orally we'll cultivated, and many
of the most advanced fields
have been laid by in good con-
dition as to size and vigor of
plant.
The stand is materially below
a perfect stand, or loop cent,
and this has been measurably
true of every corn crop grown
in the state in the past twenty
years. The final output of the
crop, whether it shall be up to
or below the actual average of
the past decade, depends wholly
upon future weather conditions.
Haying is in progress, with var
liable reports as to the yield: all
accounts agreeing that the
quality is good. Potatoes, apples,
berries, and the minor crops
generally, are doing we'll.
