Another Break in Levee
Above Hymelia Crevese

New CLEANS. June 10. -Ano-
Their break in the Mississippi
main levees was reported today,
when 200 feet of embankmept
went out about 200 feet above
the original Hymelia crevasse,
thity-five miles up the river.
The remaining portion of the
levee between the breaks is cav
ing rapidly. and the crevasse
will eventually be at least three
quarters of mile wide. The
rush of waters is undiminished
and engineers believe it will be
some time before the river SUBJ
sides sufficiently to stop the over
flow. The country about here Is
already submerged, and the new
freak affects the situation but
little.

Mrs. Astor's Mourning
Clothes To Be White

New York. June 10. Mr..
John Jacob Astor, who at nine
teen was widowed by the Titan.
ic disaster, will wear white -
not black-as mourning for her
husband.
Mrs. Aston wished indie e d
felt it obligatory-to wear the
deepest mourning. But Mrs.
Force. her mother, believes she
is too young to drape herself with
black cloth and black crepe.
Such funeral trappings might
depress her spirits, even injure
her health at this. the most i'm
portant time of her life. For it
is a fact established scientifically
that prenatal influence is pow
erful.
So Mrs Force has overruled
her daughters wish and has or
dered widows weeds of white.
The gowns are cut on the SIM
plest lines, and like the millinery
are being made at a fashionable
Fifth Avenue mourning clothes
store. Such dresses as are to be
worn out Of doors are of white
crepe. Lounging robe are of the
finest lustreless silks and lous-
ines.
At the shop where the Astor
white mourning is being made it
was said. that white mourning
robes are being more and more
worn. The Chinese wear white
as emblematic of the purified
spirit of the departed.

Will Sell By Weight.

The law governing weights and
measures, a list of which was
published by the NEWS some time
ago, went into effect on January
first. Parties attending public
markets will be required to OBJ
serve it. Practically, the princi-
pal changes will be from meas
ure to weight, and potatoes will
be sold at the rate of GO pounds
for a bushel, and apples SO
pounds for bushel, etc. In pas
sing, we will say that a cord of
wood is represented, for convent
ence, by a pile Sfeet long by a feet
wide. The man who collects pay
for cutting a cord of wood in the
woods, when the quantity cut is
less than a measured cord; or the
hauler who represents a load of
wood to contain a cord, and col
lects pay on the basis of his rep
resentation, is liable to criminal
prosecution if it can be shown
that the rank or load was short
measure just as readily as can the
merchant who is caught selling
thirty-fve inches of muslin for a
yard, or Is ounces of coffee, or
the butcher who sells Is ounces
of meat, for pound. There is
nothing wrong in cutting cord
wood 3 feet in length, or 3 feet 6
inches; but it takes more of it to
make a cord than if cut four feet
in length. A pile of wood 8 feet
in length, a feet in height and 3
feet in width contains just three
quarters of a cord, and only three
quarters of the price of a cord
should be collected. If your
wood is 8 feet long, make your
rank A feet high and 10 feet 8
inches in length; if the sticks are
8 feet 6 inches in length, make
the rank a feet in height and 9
feet, l and five-seventh inches in
length then you have a cord.

left this county in 1859, but has
visited his old home periodically
ever since. Last Friday he ac-
companied his nephew, George
C. Sipes to McConnellsburg. Har-
vey is a veteran of the Civil War
and was a member of Thomas's
corps, that on the 25th of Septem-

advance from Orchard Knob and
pushed their way successfully to
the top of Missionary Ridge thus
relieveing the distressing condi-
ton of the Union troops shut in

Old Seeds. New Names.

The U. S. Agricultural depart
ment notifies farmers that many
old varieties of seeds are being
advertised under new names, and
cautions buyers not to be duped
by the extravagant claims made
by the seller.
A bean advertised as "Shahon
Pea," is nothing more than the
old Asparagus bean, known some
times as the Yard-long bean, of
which there are twenty varieties
and the claims make for it can
not be substantiated by our ex-
perimental stations. The dealer
claims that it will make seventy
tons of hay and $50 bushels of
seed. The green pods are good
for human food, but that is all it
is good for. Dealers ask S. per
pound, instead of 25 cents which
would be about the right price.
Another plant which has been
thoroughly tested, both by the
department and the experiment
stations-namely, the Jack bean
is also being extravagantly adver
tised under the name of the Giant
Stock Pod bean, or the Wataka
bean, the seed being quoted at
SIS per bushel. This bean has
been fully treated of in Bureau
of Plant Industry Circular No.
10, which can be obtained from
the department free uponrequest
While the Jack bean produces an
enormous amount of beans per
acre, they are not relished by
stock, and no satisfactory means
of utilizing them has yet been
discovered.
Another matter, not easy of
detection by fruit growers, is the
mis- s-branding of insecticides. The
authorities, however, are keeping
tab on manufacturers, and doing
all they can to prevent their in
