HUMIDITY STATISTICS.

While New York was flooded with
rain and the mercury fell to Sc de-
grees the Mississippi valley had
.scorching heats ranging from liz de-
grees in Oklahoma City to 81 degrees
in Mobile. This is indeed the hottest
period the corn and the cotton belts
have experienced this ear and the
sultry winds of this spell may do
some damage to the country's two
great crops. The taproot of the cot
ton plant may, however, ward off Sc
rious damage in the cotton fields.
The corn and the cotton belts | ave
had, it should be remembered, more
than their normal supply of moisture
during the last five months, and this
moistufei S to some extent stored In
the soil, and this reserve of moisture
may outlast the hot wave. More nlois-
ture will, however, be needed before
the season of grain seeding in Sep
TENDER is entered upon. But no one
can tell what a day will bring forth in
either temperature or moisture. The
| country is broad and full of weather
and what is occurring in n part OF
the country may be reversed any day
in another part of it. The country is
big enough to accommodate many
kinds of weather simultaneously.

p0RTUeAt's FUTURE QUEEN.
Her keyal shyHass" Suddenly
Brought Into the Limeiight.

London, August 26.-The announce
soon to pay a visit to England and the
intimation that his visit is connected
with his betrothal to Princess AleXan-
.dra, daughter of the Duke of Fife and
granddaughter of King Edward. has
had the effect this week of throwing
the great white light of publicity up
on that young lady, who has only re-
Gently been presented to society. Her
picture today adorns the front page
of many of the weeklies, while the So
ciety journals devote much space to
her.
Being thus suddenly thrust into the
limelight is no doubt distasteful to the
young princess, who is said to have
inherited to the full her mothers in
nate timidity. Long ago christened
by her family "Her Royal Shyness,"
the Duchess of Fife becomes more re-
firing as years go On, and perhaps the
most completely miserable day she
ever spent was when she inaugurated,
by the Kings command, the great ex-
hibition at Glasgow a few months af-
ter the death of the late Queen Vic
toria.
Princess Alexandra is in her nine
teenth year. In appearance h is
like her grandmother, Queen Alexan-
dra, having the same clear skin, deli
cate features and soft blue eyes. Like
the Queen, too, she is gentle in voice
and manner.
Almost the entire life of the young
princess has been spent in the free
Scottish highlands, at Mar Lodge, in
~Aberdeenshire. She is most at home
when tramping over the open coun-
try, or when casting for trout OF
salmon in the river Deveron. Until
her recent debut she had had little
chance to acquaint herself with the
ways of the world at large, and was
practically a stranger to society II
London or at court.
Her girl friends have been the
daughters of humble folk on the Fife
estates. For years she has been thu
constant companion of her invalid
mother, who is one of the most quiet
unaffected and unobtrusive of all thu
: ladies of the British reigning family.
In connection with her rumored be
trothal to the ling of Portugal, it i
: interesting to note that Princess Al
4 exandra is still ninth in succession
to the British crown, besides being
by SPECIAL hinder, heiress to he
) fathers dukedom. These posslbl
I honors, however, sit but lightly upo
her.

be placed two feet within this line.

Principles rather than rules will be preferred. We know no
