RAIN WOULD BE BENEFICIAL

Montgomery, July S-(speciaL)-Ihe report of the Alabama section of the
 weather service, made today by seetion
 Director F. P. Chafree, indicates that cotton Is doing well with upland corn
 making good growth. Lowland corn Is all in. The week was dry and warm' ana the ground in many sections Is so dry that rain is needed. The cotton crop IS ln fairly good shape though the late work- l ings, combined with cool nights, has given the lice good showing, ana there are some reports of yelowing. Altogeter | the crop Is beginning to grow and prom ises well in some localities. The follow
 ing is the full summary for the week ending yesterday:
 "The week was warm, dry and highly | favorable for work and fairly favorable | for growth; practically no rain fell; day temperatures averaged well up In the
 nineties, with ample sunshine, though
 some of the nights were rather cool, and the ground is becoming so hard that rain
 would be beneficial.
 "The cotton crop as a whole has im- proved slightly; many fields are still grassy, though cleaning IS progressing rapidly. except where delayed by hard soil and lack of labor; chopping Is prac- tically completed; plants are generally healthy, though growth has been checked by delay in cultivation and by cool nights, the latter having caused lice to continue to infest many fields: there are few reports of yelowing and dying;
 however, the crop is now starting to make fairly good growth, and in some localities is quite promising; squares and blooms are becoming more general.
 Upland corn is receiving the last blow ing or has been laid by; 1t is making fair ly good growth and is tasselling and silk ing quite generally, though needing rain, and yellowing in some fields. Lowland corn is nearly all planted, with the great CT portion up and growing we'll
 Harvesting of oats and wheat contin-
 ues. the yield of wheat being generally light, though improving in some localities; oats continue to make a good yield. Gar dens and minor crops are doing well, ex- cept beginning to need rain.
 Early melons are being shipped from southern counties. with the prospect some- what improved. Considerable hay is being cut with satisfactory yield.
 Peaches and plums are ripening and being shipped from the southern portion of the state, where more sorghum and peanuts are being planted

locked the door behind him as he
emerged. Stumbling down the corri-
dor to the first guard, he had said:

He could have passed right through, as
the official was busy, but instead Of
that he took chair and waited for
ten minutes. When the warden was
at liberty he was asked for loan OF
$40, and the chaplain" reported to
him on the welfare of three or four diff
ferent prisoners before saying good

the prison the disguised prisoner en-

borrowed $40 Of the merchant and
then disappeared. <

Three gatemen were ready to swear
that the clergyman had passed out,
taking dollar from each as he did so.
The warden had seen and talked and
loaned money to the same man. Two
guards had also seen him. Here were
six prison officials who could swear to
thing, and yet that thing was not a
fact. No. $40 had simply initiated the
chaplain down to a line--his voice,
gait, speech and general look.
At II O'clock the next forenoon the
president of the Third National bank
Of Cornopolis was called out of his
room for moment. During his alb

clerks in the bank entered the room

out Of the 'pen" within three months
and the chaplain sent an official com.
plant to the governor that the police
were trying to discredit his labors
The chaplain was a man forty five
years old, while No. $40 was only thir-
ty. The chaplain was four inches the
taller, had stoop shoulders and sham
bled as he walked. He also had pc.
culiar information. The slick convict
gave up his original idea of digging for
liberty to study the chaplain. At the
end of five months he was one of the
teachers in the evening school. At the
end of seven he asked and got liberty
to hold Bible class on Sundays. He
wrote and the chaplain delivered SER
mon on christianity In Prison." which
was commented on by hundreds of pa
pers. Up to this time he had been
working in the tailor shop. He was
now given charge of the prison library,
and his plans were as good as carried
out
1t was the habit Of the chaplain to
visit the prison every afternoon from
to 3. part of the time was spent
with prisoners in their cells-men who
were undergoing light punishment
and a part in the library, and he al
ways left pretty promptly at 8. In 60
ing out he passed three guards at lock-
ed gates and went through the ward
ems office and out of the main door.
No. $40 had held the position Of libra
rian for three months, and it was mid.
winter One afternoon the chaplain
had been visiting in the prison and re-
turned to the library at quarter of s..
AS he entered the room he received a
blow that knocked him senseless, and
when he recovered his wits half an
hour had passed and he was tied hand
and foot and gagged. 1t was G o'clock
before he was released.
In the course OF that hour No. $40
had done some wonderful things Aft
er knocking down the chaplain he had
stripped off the latter's outer garments
rnd clothed himself in them; then he
