PARo PERDUE NOTES.

The long spell Of dry weather
was broken On last Tuesday even
ing by good and heavy rain,
which continued for nearly two
hours. We had another heavy
rain on Wednesday evening.
These timely rains will do a
vast amount of good to the crops
Of the farmers in the drouth
stricken district.
There is no doubt, but that the
long continued drouth was be-
coming to be a serious proposition
and causing untold uneasiness and
apprehension among the farmers.
The cane crop was already be-
ginning to show the effects of the
drouth.
The cane fields, however, have
been kept clean and though some
recent days have been too hot for
work, cultivation has ben pushed
to an unusual degree
Cotton was beginning to suffer,
also.
Some Of the oldest inhabitants
of this section do not remember
Of having witnessed such a long
| drouth and intense heat, since
1896.
For some reason the train OF the
F. and A. R. r. has been late every
day this week from fifteen to for.
| tv minutes. It is supposed thai
the business is growing heavier
land that time at the stations hal
been increased in consequence.

for the payment of the amounts
due the several teachers; that in

ceived by him towards the extinc-
ton Of said note and interest un-
til its final satisfaction.
