is PREDICTED.

Early peaches suffered somewhat
last night as the result of a sudden
drop in the temperature. The ther-
mOmeter took drop to 81 degrees,
the cold being not a mere frost but Il
general freeze. From all indications.
tonight will be even colder The
barometer has climbed up until it
looks as if the sky would be devoid Of
clouds and the cold would have a
good chance to get in some heavy
work.
Peaches are about the only fruit
other fruit is not yet blOssOmed and
in fact not many peaches are yet out.

A Yelled Threat,

An editorial in the Evening Bulletin
last night. in which it was covertly
threatened that if Governor Moore was
not given some political honors, he
might become candidate for senator
against Senator Ankeny created con-
siderable Indignation among the An
keny men and had a tendency to still
further widen the breach between the
two factions.
Tonight's meeting promises to be an
acrimonious affair before the selection
of officers is finally made The An
keny forces will vote sOlidly for their
candidates while the Boxers, it is
said, will make an equally determined
fight to capture the meeting. The meet
ing is called for o'clock at the court
house.
