MOUNTAIN PEAK.

Mountain Peak, Texas, May H.
The heavy rains of the past, follow
ed by frost did immense damage to
growing crops, especially cotton and
corn. A great deal of cotton has
been plowed up and planted over,
and some corn is thought to be
ruined. The prospects for a good
wheat and oats crop are very good.

Corn Is beginning to grow, but

corn Is three weeks further advan-

FROM THE FIELD.

/ saw a young girl in the first
blush of womanhood arrayed in
pure white, her only ornament rose
in her hair tall, slender, supple,
graceful, with an elastic step; the
faint rose tint of health in Ter
cheeks; even pearly teeth, eyes
sparkling with animation and feat
ures expressive of innocence. Her
conduct toward her parents was the
personification of filial love, obedie-
nee and devotion | said indeed this is
the acme of human beauty and love
liness. l saw a bride and groom, a
lovely woman and strong self-reliant
noble man. They were as playful as
a lions whelps but as considerate
of each others feelings as a mother
as she keeps midnight vigil over~her
sick child. Every look betokened
mutual love and confidence. ] said.
