The contempt case resulted from the

charged with the killing.
Neal Wright testified at the trial
that he, not his mother, fired the fatal

The district attorney claimed that
Neal previously had told a different
story to Judge Lindsey and called
Lindsey as a witness. The juvenile

Mrs. Wright was acquitted June 10.

The total precipitation for July 1915,
was 2.81. AS we have had a fall of
1853 and in most years from to 4
inches, the rain. fall has not been very
great. We have had only 3 clear days
during July, one hail storm on the
2lst and thunder storms on the IA, Is,
20, q and q. Since August first fires
have had to be started in furnaces and
stoves as the temperature was as low
as 81 at times up to the 9Th. There
was continual rain from the first up
until Thurday. This has made it
very bad for the farmers, some who
had not gotten their hay under cover,
and oats and rye have been badly
damaged, to just what extent it is
hard to tell.
Tuesday night there was great
storm which covered the atlantic
states and the great lakes region !;
from Is to 100 lives were lost at Erie
in a cloud burst. The loss figures up
to $5,0O0,000. The storm did much
damage in Chicago, flooding easements
