home, No. 710 Fifth avenue East in
the presence OF a company of 126
guests. The home was deliberately
decorated in red and white carna'

for the expression of congratulations
and the well-wishing OF the assem-

of refreshments. A little later a
crowd of over two hundred young peo-
pie of the neighborhood and from var
ious parts of the city gathered upon
the lawn, which was brightly lighted
with Japanese lanterns and INDUCED
in a charivari upon the newlyweds.
Their presence on the lawn was de-

ments in the way of a treat.

For week ending May, 8, 1910.
Des Moines, Iowa.-The past week
was unseasonably cool, with less
than the usual amount of sunshine.
The daily average temperature was
about 8 degrees below the normal;
light frosts were reported in the
southern, and freezing temperature
in the northern districts on the Sd
and 4th, doing further damage to the
fruit crops. The rainfall was exces-
siye in the extreme southeast, heavy
in the south and southwest; moder.
ate in the northwest and central; and
light in the north and northeastern
counties. The rains were very bne.
fetal and oats and other small grain
generally show an Improvement; but
there are numerous reports that some
OF the late sown oats have not yet
terminated in the northwest and
northern counties on account of the
surface soil having been too dry and
the grain not properly covered. Con.
siderable corn was planted during the
week, but the work was interrupted
by rain in the southern and Is held
back In northern districts owing to
the cold weather; farmers being
afraid to risk planting under unfavor,
able conditions. Grass In pastures
and meadows has made slow growth
but shows some Improvement in con
dition in western and southern coun
ties where the rainfall was the heay
lest. For the state at large the con
ditions are promising and the week
closes with indications OF warmer
and more favorable weather.
