IN MEMORIAM.

Mrs. Emma Catron Scarboronoh
was born is Simpson County, Miss. !.
on March 14th 1881. She was the
daughter Of Fl. T. and Martha Cat
ron. They are we'll known and
nlgnly respected both in Simpson and
RANKIN counties. She was one of a
family of ten children, five bows and
i've girls. On the both Of November
l9o4 she was married to Mack Scar
borough, a young man held in high
esteem, in the Richland community
where he was reared.
About ten years ago she Joined
che Methodist church at Rich
land academy. She has been q con.
sistent member Of that church since
she first united with it. as her
pastor for nearly three years have
found her interested in the church and
willing to do what she could to help
build up the church. She took an
active interest in the Sunday school
and the Epworth League.
She died at her home at Plain. on
the 7th of October 1905. How strange
that this young life should be cut off
so soon. But for the revelations of
the Bible it would be inexplicable
but tho Bible throws its rays o. light
and comfort over the sadest experien-
ces in life. There we find that God
let's not even little sparrow fall to
the ground without his notice, and
we know that much more does God
look after man, made in his own
image. All was done for her that
could be done for her by the loved
ones and skilled physicians, but God
saw fit to take her and it was best,
He is too wise too err and too good
to do wrong This life though
short, has not been lived in vain. She
has performed her mission on earth,
she told her husband that she was
ready to go. God has taken her to
himself to dwell in that heavenly
land where sickness and sorrow are
not known. What is loss to her
friends and loved ones has been her
eternal gain. Her Pastor,
M. II. MOORE.

Weather Crop Bulletin.

For the week ending July 3, 1905.
Des Moines, Iowa
The week ending on the morning
of the Sd brought a large excess of
rain in all districts, the amount re-
ported ranging from 1.50 to over $50
inches. The daily average tempera-
:ure was 6 degrees below normal in tho
central district, and relatively low in
all parts of the state. The prevalent
cool weather was beneficial to spring
wheat and oats, checking damage by
rust.
In nearly all parts of the state the
soil was too wet for cultivation of corn,
and on an average only about one to
two days work in the line was done.
In respect to stage of growth corn is
quite uneven, ranging from few
inches to full normal height. In the
southwest district a large per cent of
the crop has been laid by in fair condi-
ton; and in all sections most of the
early planted fields show normal
growth. AS whole, the corn crop is
better than at corresponding date last
year. Spring wheat and oats are gen
orally headed out and filed we'll, with
but little indication of heavy damage
by rust and blight. Early hay harvest
was begun week or more ago and
considerable clover has been running
by excessive rain. With fair weather
in the future, the hay crop will be very
good. Pastures are extra good. Pota-
toes and all garden truck are doing
well. The apple crop shows decline in
condition.
Reports of crop correspondents for
July l showed following average con-
dition of staple crops: Winter wheat,
SO; spring wheat, "a; corn, 80; oats, So;
rye, 96; barley, 50; flax, 95; hay crop,
1Ol; pastures, 1O5; potatoes, SO: apples,
IS; grapes SS; plums, SO per cent.
Last year July 1, spring wheat was
rated 81; corn, 80; oats, 81: barley, 90;
flax 80; hay, 80; pasture, "a; potatoes,
lol; apples, 50 per cent.

Airship Makes Success
full Trip.

TOLEDO, o., JUNE 30.-One of the most
remarkable flights ever made in an air.
ship was performed today by A. r. Kna-
benshue, who sailed through the air a
distance of three miles, landed on top of
ten story Office building in twenty-five
minutes from the time of starting and
then returned to the depot from which
he started. The day was ideal for the
daring feat. A light wind was blowing
from the east, and Knabenshue sailed
his aerial craft directly in the face of
the wind. Two days ago he declared he
would sail down and alight on the top of
ten story building. When he left the
starting place he directed the ship
straight for the city. When half the
distance had been covered an upper cur
rent OF air carried him up to a distance
OF 5000 feet. But the nervy director
did not lose control of his machine for
moment, and steered it directly for
the heart of the city. Business was
entirely suspended, and the entire popu-
lation gathered in the street to watch
the course of the ship. When direct
ly over the skyscrapper, Knabenshue
directed his craft downward and
alighted on the building with the ease
and grace of bird.
A round of applause greeted the dar-
ing navigator, who was less excited than
any OF the spectators. After examining
the ship to see that it was all right, and
receiving the congratulations of his
friends, he started on his trip back, and
going with the wind, he made the return
trip in fifteen minutes. He declares that
his present ship is far superior to
others he has navigated, that it is easier
managed, and that he has solved the
problem of aerial navigation.

Survey for a New Railroad.

A party of eleven workmen have been
busy the past few days running a sur
vey in Wright township for a new rail
road. They entered the township in
section and last Saturday were as far
as r. R. Wright's going southeast. The
only informat ton secured from the sur
veyors was that they started from Des
Moines and were headed for Seymour
and from there would turn toward st.
Louis Some members of the party were
quoted as saying that the proposed line,
if constructed, would also touch Conf
dence and Promise City, but others say
it will miss both of these towns. We
are informed that number of prom
inent citizens from Seymour drove out
and met the party one day last week
and viewed the survey. Wear of the
opinion that the proposed road is as
near completed now as it will ever be,
but as long as the survey goes on there
is reason for hope.-Corydon Democrat.
