There will be widespread differ
ences of opinion as to the merits of
the different chautauqua lectures and
we do not suppose we voice the senti-
ments of any but ourselves. For our
part we do not recall ever having
heard poorer cheaper, more plati-
tudinous lecture than that given by
Mr.. McClary on Sunday night. 1t was
a mixture of bufoonery and trite COM
monplaces. We have never before
seen man work so hard and so OBJ
viously to raise Singer. He brought
a few dubious giggles, not at any
thing he said, but at the grimaces he
made for the purpose. People'laughed
at him, not with him, just as they
laugh at the slap-my-face artist at
the street fair. Of course one cannot
discuss questions of morality and spir-
ituality without saying some true and
useful things, but McClary said them
in disagreeable way and with a
flippancy and crudeness that was un-
becoming. Perhaps the latter part of
his lecture was an Improvement, we
do not know, for the good wife init
mated early in the lecture that she
had had enough, and we were glad in
deed to spend the balance of the even.

For the week ending July 70, 1911.
Des Moines, Iowa.
The average temperature for the
week was below normal for the first
time since the first week in May; the
average daily deficiency for the past
week being about degrees. A few,
generally light and scattered showers,
occurred on Tuesday, Wednesday and
Friday, but over the larger part Of the
state the rainfall was practically nil
until Saturday night or Sunday morn
ing when fairly copi0us and well-dis-
tributed showers occurred Cool
nights, partly cloudy weather and
absence of hot winds have enabled
corn to hold it's own remarkably we'll
considering the small amount of moist
ure in the soil. Over the southern
and parts of the central and northern
districts corn has suffered some dam
age, but the crop as whole is doing
as we'll, if not better, than could be
expected under the circumstances, and
with favorable weather in the future
will make fair yield. The small
grain harvest is practically completed
and thrashing is progressing rapidly
under favorable weather conditions.
Reports show wide range in the
yield of grain. Oats range from ten
to fifty bushels per acre; winter wheat
eight to thirty; spring wheat, eight to
sixteen; barley, ten to twenty-five and
timothy seed from two to four bushels.
The drought has seriously affected
fruit. Apples, grapes and plums are
small and apples are falling badly.
The worst effect of the drought, how
ever, is on pastures and the water
supply. Pastures are bare and much
stock is being fed green corn or hay
and stock water is getting scarce

and see that goods came Immediately
and then to come back to Denison.
The bank paid the party so repre-.
senting himself as James Morris the
sum of $255.00, AND took his receipt
for the same, which was Immediately
forwarded to the bank at Portland,
which, upon receiving the same, mott
fed the bank here that it had not
wired the payment of any money to
James Morris.
The matter was at once taken up by
the Western Union Telegraph COM
pany. Within day or two one of it's
telegraph operators at Omaha was
brought to Denison for Identification,
and upon stepping into the bank here
was Immediately recognized as the
James Norris to whom the money had
been paid on July 14th, and later,
upon being confronted with the evil
dence against him, he made full con-
fessiOn in which he stated that he
had sent the telegram to the DenisOn
bank purporting to have been sent by
the First National bank of Portland
to James Morris, and had also sent
{~1@ f0 hi OF iSnf
purporting to have come from J. W..
Morris & Son Co., and that the next
morning he came from Omaha, called
at the Western Union Office and got
this message which he had sent the
afternoon before to James Morris, re-
ceipted for it and at once, armed with
it, went up to the bank, represented
himself as James Norris and OBJ
tanned the money. He has since re-
turned to the telegraph company a
portion of the money which came into
his hands, the remainder of it having
been spent before he was taken into
custody. He was arrested, waived ex-
animation, and is now in Jail awaiting
the action of the grand jury
1t is certainly very sad case, in
view of the fact that he is young
man of prepossessing appearance, of
good family and but recently married.
1t is to be regretted that young men

WRITTEN NORTH

Earring Garrison Receives Letter
From Far North Written by
Mr.. chas. Tabor.
TO SEE THE MIDNIGHT sun
Has Any Other Denison Boy Ever
Received Letter From So
Far North?

Master Earling Garrison is in re-
ceipt of letter from Mr.. Chas., Tabor,
written ON board the ship Vectis, and
in latitude north of the Arctic circle.
We are privileged to print the letter.
The reader will see that Mr.. Tabor
expects to go to Spitsbergen, if there
is not too much ice in the ocean. He
says he has not been seasick an hour
since leaving New York. No doubt
Master Earling will prize Mr.. Tabor's
letter very much. The letter is as fol.
lows:
ION board the Good Ship vectis,
July 8, 1911.
"Friend Earling: l send you in this
letter few Norwegian stamps, which
hope you have not already got. The
ship is off the west coast of Norway
and this letter is written north of the
Arctic circle. ! think it likely that
no other boy in Denison has ever re-
ceived a letter from so far north. We
are on our way to North Cape to see
the midnight sun, and if there is not
too much ice in the ocean we will go
on to Spitsbergen, which you know is
much farther north.
81 have not been seasick an hour
since / left New York, but yesterday
the sea was quite rough and l was a
little bit afraid that might be sick.
We see the midnight sun here and so
have to go to bed in the daytime. Give
my kind regards to your father and
mother.

"Chas. Tabor"
