Her Astral Spouse.

An unmarried woman of my &C
quaintance was drawing dangerously
near the threshold of that age where
the minated must abandon every mat
rimonial hope.
Belonging as she did to that large
contingent of women to whom mar
riage represents the only possible
career, her anxiety, as she saw her
chances Of achieving it dwindling to
the vanishing point, became keen, and
in her distress she began to seek for
comforting reassurances among that
fraternity who, for a suitable consid-
Grafton, obligingly offer to reveal the
secrets of the future.
In the course Of an interview with
one Of these wise women" she was
told: my dear, you already are mar
ried on the astral plane, and it is your
astral husband who is keeping the
earth men away from you"
..Oh," cried the ungrateful bride,
please tell him not to!"-"Sunday

the following cotton crop letter:
Since our crop letter of the LIST
ulto., the conditions have improved
materially, and farmers have had
good weather to cultivate the crops,
which were very backward in a great
many sections.
In Mississippi, Tennessee, Texas
and the Territories, the plant with the
exception of being late, is healthy
and making rapid growth, but there
are still complaints from Louisiana
and Arkansas, of some fields being
grassy, in Georgia, Alabama, and the
Carolinas the crop is we'll cultivated
and making good progress.
The crop I'VE the entire belt, is
now making good progress, and we
believe the Government Bureau Re-
port to be issued on the 3rd inst will
an average condition of about 80,
against SO last year, and I'll, in 1903,
however, it is too early to form an
opinion as to what the final outcome
will be as the crop has to pass
through the most trying period during
late July, and August, and much also
depends upon the weather conditions
during the picking season.
The undertOne in cotton shows less
strength, and with good weather condi.
lions, prices are likely to seek a low
er level in the near future.

Stories Exaggerated.

Nagales, Ariz., Special.-The stories
sent out from this place regarding
the attack by Yaqui Indians upon the
Buenos Ayres ranch in Sonora last
Sunday in which over twenty Yaquis
and several settlers and their families
were said to have been slain are the
grcssest exaggerations. The only
foundation for the reports was a fight
occurring at the ranch in which two
Indians were killed and Luis Caranza
was wounded. There was no attempt
at a massacre, and no troops were sent
out is reported.

Standardization War.
Lake Sunapee, N. H.-Secretary Of
State John Hay died at his summer
home here ct 1 o'clock in the nor
ing.
His family were grouped about his
bed at the end. He died as peacefully
as though going to sleep.
His physicians had been summoned
a few minutes before the end.
The physicians arrived just before
he breathed his last.
Secretary Hay was taken ill last

been undermined during a long appli-
cation to his duties in Washington,

He returned to this country with his
family or June 10 and returned to-
Washington. He remained at his post
there, however, only a few days and
OH June % started for his summer
home.
He had been there Just two days
when he was attacked with a chill.
This was the beginning of the END.
That his illness would prove fatal
no one at first believed. DR.. Charles
L. Scudder, the Boston specialist, who
was called. said that beyond the chill
he foresaw no special danger. and
that he hoped to soon have the distin-
guished patient on his feet again.
The secretary did show signs of i'm
provement for a time. but he later de-
veloped ureamia, and from that time on
grew steadily worse. His physicians,
however, said that his progress was
satisfactory and they still held out
hopes of his complete restoration.
There was no alarming symptoms
until late at night, when symptoms
of pulmonary embolism set in. He
sank rapidly after midnight.
Payne Whitney and his wife. who
was Miss Helen Hay, had all Of their
plans made to sail for Europe only a
few days ago. They were about to
abandon the trip and go to the bedside
of Mr.. Hay, but such r~eaSSuring re-
ports of his condition were received
that they embarked.
John Hay was born in Salem, Ind,
October s, 1888. His parents were
Charles and Helen Hay.
He was graduated at Brown Uni
versity in 1858, after taking high rank
as a scholar, especially in English
composition. and Immediately began
the study of law at Springfield, ILL.,, in
the office of his uncle, an intimate
friend and associate of Abraham Lin
coin.

the bar. he learned his first lessons
in practical politics and made the ac-
quaintance of the leaders of the Re-
publican party. He took part also in
the campaign of 1860 as a writer and
speaker.
