various parts OF the county the
creeks Overilowed their banks and
washed over the creek bottom fields
doing much damage to corn, shocked
wheat and fencing. Some of the
streams were as high II not higher
than ever known. Floods and cloud.
bursts the same evening are re.
ported In other parts of the State
and the estimated damage Is great
The frequent rains of late had al.
ready done much damage to whea,
in the shock, some OF 1t beginning
to sprout, and to oats and hay
greatly discouraging the farmers.

NO CORONER TO ELECT.

There will be no Coroner to elect
In st. Francois county this year.
Since the publication of the offices
to be filed at the next general cleo
tion, for which nominations will be
made at the August primary, II has
been discovered that, under the CON
stitutional amendment adopted in
1906, the Offices Of Sheriff and Cor
onor were changed from two to four
years; and that appointments made
to fiji vacancies hold for the balance
of the term, instead of till the next
ensuing general election. DIR. J. II.
English was appointed to FIJI va.
cancy In the Office of Coroner, and
under the constitu tional provision
cited, he holds over until the gencr-
al election in 1872.
