When another message goes forth
from the University of Missouri to
the press of the state It will be thru

CALIFORNIA LETTER.

This is supposed to be 4 semi-arid
region and the rains generally cease
before this, but May "a, the rains
commenced and lasted all night and
most of the next day. 1t seems
rather odd that while Missouri is
s.suffering" for want ofrain, Califor-
MIA should have an abundance, du-
ring the growing season. Wonder
If the earthquake had anything to
do with this? Again on the 26th
and 9th we are having rain. Lots
Of bay ruined by the late rains.
The old Californians don't care
about rain after May Is, until Oc-
tober. They SIMPLY leave their hay
| crop scattered around in the field
or just apile' It up. They seem TO
know nothing about stacking hay
| and not one in hundred that has
| shed room for one-fourth of their
crop. The hay crop is fed off until
near the time rain is expected in
the fall and then baled and stored.

weakness of his manhood that protests
against the cold and causes him to turn

Why is the woman happier spectacle

Because OF an inexplicablc and subtle in

1 Pointer for Gen. Gros,enor.

From an ancient tome we learn that the
.cOntumacious muck-raker was abroad in
the land even in the good old, golden,

try. Moreover, we learn from this same
source that one Of the causes that drove
George Washington from Office. as he ex-
planned somewhat Detulantly. IL appears
TO Us. TO his friend Hamilton. was his
Discrimination to be longer buffetcd in
the public prints by set &C infamous
Iscribblers. Wherefore. we observe that
the muck-raker was not wholly irrespOa-
sible for establishing the cherished tradi-
ton against a third term. 1t may inter
est the Hon. Charles Henry Crosvenor
and certain lesser lights OF Republican
ism. especially I'm the States OF Kansas
and Washington, to know this. If it were
the muck-raker that induced George
Washington to view third term I'm the
