South Bend, Ind. Aug. 5.-The long
continued drought, combined with the
prevailing intense heat, than which
there has been no more excessive since
1901, is proving costly to farmers,
whose crops are being dana ged. 1t is
reported today that much of the corn
on sandy lands, and particularly along
the river, north of the city, is now
past saving from it's backed condition.
On the heavier clay lands the corn is
still holding out, but without a let
up in the heat it will likely suffer the
same fate. Potatoes are similarly af-
tested, and farmers can only stand and
see the promised bounteous yield go
to waste.

ENOCH ARDEN is REPEATED
Husband Comes Back to Wife at Spring

Springfield, Ark, May IA
Special correspondence.-Our viii
lage has a recent Enoch Arden
event. About nine years ago w.
H. Teal and wife sold their prop
erty preparatory to removing to
Illinois. Mr.. Teal left his wife
until he could go and secure
suitable location, and then she
was to be sent for. He was also
engaged in patent right busi-
ness, and soon after leaving here
had spent the proceeds of their
lands and property until he says
he was unable to do as he at first
intended, and he decided to keep
his whereabouts unknown to his
wife and friends until he could re-
cuperate his lost finances.
Years passed and he kept wan
dering from state to state IL his et-
fort to rebuild his lost wealth, un-
til month ago he made up his
mind to turn his face homeward to
see what changes the nine long
years of wandering had wrought
in changes here. Unlike the orig
inal Enoch Arden, he found his
wife his wife still. When he had
made himself known and told OF
his own lone wanderings, and
asked her pardon, she forgave;
and now, after supposed widow
hood of nine long years, she again
answers to the name of Mrs. Teal.
