have you taken leave of your

Werner has done for your dead father,
for myself, for the entire family, in

Hes done nothing for me-"
snarled Floyd, except to refuse me
a paltry thousand dollars to start me
in business. After gobbling up ia

the tears streaming from her eyes.

But her wilful son, headstrong and
furious, swung out of the house, a
muttering volcano of spite and
hatred. To his point of view John
Werner was all that he had pictured
him. Had Floyd fingered a few mo-
ments longer, however, he would
have changed his opinion of the man
who had just refused to loan him
money-for his own good, too, had
he but known it.
To outward seeming, when William
Burnett, the father of Floyd, died he
had left fairly profitable business.
Town gossips were puzzled when a
month after his demise the business
was purchased by his oldest friend,
Werner. 1t was known that he had
given Mrs. Burnett something in the
way of purchase price. Floyd knew
that this was a small amount and

Daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Tom Riley
Stunned by Electricity.

The residence Of Tom Riley was
struck by lightning, Tuesday evening
about 7:30 and little Julia Riley, was
partially stunned for several minutes
as result. The stroke shattered a
chimney and damaged some OF the

the structure without setting fire to
it. Little Miss Riley, we are glad to
say, suffered no serious consequences
from her experiences.

.WtTTEsT JUNE ON RECORD
FOR YEARS-&0l INCHES
June This Year was the Wettest Mex
leo has had Since the June
Of 1902.

The weather records show that
Mexico has received during the last
month, s:01 inches of rainfall. This
is the heaviest percipation this sec
ton has gotten since 1902 when the
records show S:79 inches of water.
It will be remembered that in 1902
the month of May was not as wet as
the one this year. The farmers
raised a wonderful crop that season
The June records for the last three
years follow; 1914-O;69 hundredths;
l91S-0:79 hundredths; and 1872
2:92 inches
During May 1915 we received 6:3s
inches of water which Is the largest
percipation in years. The last two
months 14:37 inches Of rain has fall
len in this locaIity-more than one
and third feet. This makes one of
the wettest crop seasons on the
weather records.
Other parts of the state, with the
exception of the extreme southwestern
section, about Sikeston, have had an
equally heavy rainfall. In st. Louis
the June record was the largest since
the establishment of the weather de-
partment.
More than four inches Of rain fell
in and around st. Louis between
o'clock Sunday morning and 10 o'clock
Monday morning and the total preci-
patton for the month at noon made
this the wettest June since the United
States Weather Bureau began keep
ing records here, in 1871, with two
days yet to go.
The present rain, by far the heav-
lest this month, extending over a ter
ritory within radius of 100 miles Of
st. Louissthat city receiving the heav-
lest downpour of the district. AS a
result the principal rivers are at or
above food stage and thousands Of
acres of farm land along sthem are
submerged. There has been one fa-
tality-an Iron Mountain engineer
was killed when his train ran into a
washout near Chester, Illy-but the
principal damage has been to prop
erty.
The Missouri River is somewhat
above food stage between st. Louis
and Kansas City, There is no serious
threat Of immediate danger, how.
ever, as the rains are largely local.
