NV ~ ''~' OO''O 10y wv >'s'Ss
The body OF the woman known as
Dorothy. who committed suicide last
Thursday morning, was shipped to
to Seattle Friday morning. The
remains were accompanied by her also
wayward sister, whose state OF mind can
be better imagined than described.
Dorothy, cher real name is withheld out
of consideration for her stricken parents,
was but IS years at age, not 80 as was
given out last week and had ran away
from respectable home near Seattle
only five weeks before.
In the fate Of this young girl there is
sermon, that will doubtless be felt by
her sister, as we'll as some Of her COM
panions in the so-called sporting world,
and might be pondered upon to advan.

red light, as we'll as their parents, to
whose early carelessness the first mis-.
step can frequently be traced.

TRIAL BY JURY.
Local Musical Talent Presents Comic
Opera at Grand Theater.

Opera at Grand Theater.
The production OF Gilbert & Sullivan's
comic opera. Trial by jury" under
direction OF NJ. e. Robinson, at the
Grand theater Friday and Saturday
nights for the benefit OF the High school
gymnasium fund was not as we'll attend
ed as the meritorious performances de-
served, although the house was fairly
we'll filed, and the Gym. fund was aided
about 800.
The light attendance was due to no
fault of the people, but to the fact that
since the opening Of the Grand, plays
have been trifle too frequent for the
theater going population. owing largely
to the unexpected billing Of companies
here whose dates were disarranged by
the San Francisco disaster.
However, those who attended the
"Trial by jury" were thoroughly pleased
with the performances. The cast was
entirely local talent, and all acquitted
themselves splendidly. the first even
ing things did not work smoothly, for
lack Of stage rehearsals, but on Saturday
evening it was all that could be desired.

as plaintiff, and r. &. rrask as defend.

ferty, w. B. Paine and N. d. Coons, was

called for.

Young ladies, several beautiful drills and

CONDITIONS ARE GROWING BETTER.
Outlook for New Crop Of the Weed is
Much Improved.

The elegant weather Of the past week
is bringing the weed along in fips style.
Much of the crop has been topped. The
crop of Mr. y. p. Hill in this city has
already been cut down and housed in
the shed. The last of the week will
mark the beginning of the tobacco har-
vest in Vernon county.
In regard TO conditions generally in
the tobacco regions of the state the
Edgerton Reporter of last week says
buyers are still riding the growing dis.
tricts quite thoroughly and in some
cases making more earnest endeAvor
to close contracts for the growing crop
than heretofore As the offers made
on such crops as are now reaching ma
turity come near the expectations of
the growers, trades are being effected.
Considerable tobacco in the Looi and
Rio sections has been placed under con-
tract during the week at from IL to IS
cents. While large per cent of the
growers are not yet willing to name a
price on their tobacco, more and more
of them are being persuaded as the con-
tinued importuning proceeds
Extremely heavy rains have fallen
during the week end in one or two in
stances accompanied by narrow strips
of hail, covering limited areas. The
amount of damage SO far this season is
much below the normal Topping hes
now become general and some OF the
early fields will be ready for the sheds
the coming week. Altogether the out
look for the new crop has been much
improved, except possibly some fields
have been flooded by the recent heavy
rainfalls or has loosened the soil so that
the heavy tobacco has fallen down.
The cured leaf market is absolutely
without news of any moment, though
there is demand for old stock the
same as heretofore.
The shipments ont of storage do not
exceed 800 cases from this market to all
points for the week past.
