Weather Crop Bulletin.

For the week ending May 4, 1908.
Des Moines, lathe past week has
been unseasonably cold and dry, with
brisk to high northwest winds, ire
quent frosts, occasional snow fiurries
and freezing temperatures in all parts
of the state on two nights. The tenn
perature was below normal every day
during the week, the average daily de-
ficiency ranging from IL degrees in
the southeastern to Is degrees in the
northwestern counties. The lowest
temperatures occurred over the bIis.
souri, divide on April 30th and May I'd.
the lowest reported being Is degrees
on low ground, in Cherokee county.
on May I'd. The amounts of sunshine
and precipitation we're also below the
normal, and, under these unfavorab.e
conditions, vegetation has made but
little growth, although good progress
has been made in preparing ground
for corn planting. Reports vary as to
the amount of damage to fruit result
Ing from freezing, but it is evident
that great injury was done in the
southern and central sections, and but
little in northern counties. where the
blossoms were not so far advanced.
With favorable weather conditions In
the future there will be an abundant
crop Of fruit in the northern and a
fair yield of the later varieties in the
southern sections. All kinds of small
grain, pastures and meadows are IN
good condition. Corn planting viii be
general before the close of another
week II the weather is favorable. The
week closed with copious rains fall
ing over southern counties.

RECOVER WATCHES
SHERIFF VALENTINE RETURNS
WITH GOODS STOLEN FROM
THE T. X. S. JEwELRY HOUSE
FOUND IN CEDAR RAPIDS.

Sheriff Ed Valentine accompanied
by Geo. 'Heise, one of the alleged rob.
bers of the T. X. Smith Jewelry house,
returned Saturday evening from Cedar
Rapids where all the stolen property
which was taken from the T. X. Smith
store Sunday night, April IL, was
found. Heise had agreed to show Mr.
Valentine, where the articles were
hidden, so the sheriff and his prisoner
went to Cedar Rapids Saturday morn
ing and found where the properly was
located. 1t consisted of ten gold
watch cases, gold bracelet, one
gold chain, a pair of diamond ear
rings and other jewelry. Speaking of
the finding of the jewelry the Sunday
Cedar Rapids Republican says:
The fact that Deputy Marshal Gun.
ningham and Police Captain Mcclure
were not mistaken when they arrested
George Heise, Guy Sells, Henry Hen
ningen and Frank Thomas on suspi-
cion of being connected with the T. X.
Smith jewelry robbery at Oskaloosa on
the night of April IL, was proven be-
yond shadow of doubt yesterday
when Sheriff Valentine, of Mahaska
county appeared in the city with Heise
to get the stolen property.
1T was on the Monday following the
robbery that Police captain Mcclure
had his suspicious aroused by the pc
culiar actions of these fellows and at.
ter comforting with the deputy marshal
they came to the conclusion that it
would pay to watch them closely.
when the sheriff and his prisoner
arrived insthe city yesterday he and
Heise, IN company with Police Captain
Kroulik, went, to the coal sheds be-
tween Seventh and Eighth avenues
on Fourth street, where the watches
were found. They had hidden them
well. 1t would have. been almost i'm
possible to md them in any manner
except by accident, as they mad placed
them between the walls of the shed
and unless the building had been torn
down they would perhaps, never have
been found.
THE sheriff and his prisoner then
returned to the police station and
there Heise directed Police Captain
Kroulik to the west side where he
said bracelet would be hound. He
stated that 1t was under a board walk
and sure enough, when the officer went
to where directed he found the brace
LET in the exact spot where Heise mad
said 1t would be. ....a, ms
The men have all been indicted by
the grand jury and their conviction is
now assured"

nant with hopes and inspirations for

and Bonded veterans, whose steps are
timed to the mournful measure of the
muff1ed drums; the singing of the ma
tional anthems; the Memorial ad-
dress; the decoration OF the graves of
our dead and the strewing OF the wat
ers that run to the sea with flowers,
symbols of hope that is eternal and
lof a faith that is sublime; the Divine
invocation and the funeral salute. are
object lessons in the school OF patriot
ism, teaching unto the American cit
lzen the duties which he owes to him
self. his country and his God.

ranged to make 1t begin June 3, in

Tuesday in June, but the commission
has postponed it until June 3. The

pretty Little Foxes.

Someone mas offered to furnish the
city with six or seven young foxes to
be kept as pets in the public square,
but as there is no one in the employ of
the city who has the time TO take pro.
per care of the little animals, the of.
fer was necessarily refused and the
foxes may possibly be sold to the
management OF the new Glenwood
park on the interurban line.
