found generous quantity Of liquor.
They also found some liquor in Mr..

INTENSE HEAT CAUSES SUFFER
INC

The intense heat of the past week or
ten days has been the cause OF more or
less serious illness, and in a number
of instances heat prostrations are re-
ported. One of the most serious cases
of heat prostration was that OF Walter
Hansel, hired man for Mr.. and MRS.
Geo. Cox. The young man went to the
hay field last Thursday morning ana
after working for several hours he was
overcome by the heat and it required
several hours hard work on the part
of a local physician to save the young
mans life. Judge Stiles, who has per-
haps as fine flower garden as any
one in Manchester, was working In ms
garden last Friday and before ne re-
allied what the blazing sun was dong
to him, he too needed the assistance OF
a physician, and since then has been
somewhat under the weather.'

CRITICAL DAYS FOR CORN

The intense heat since the Fourth OF
July and the lack of rain is telling on
the corn, especially on the lighter SOIL.
In certain sections considerable dam
age has already been done to corn,
while on the heavier soil the corn is
standing the intense heat remarkably
we'll. Late oats have been severely
damaged by the boiling sun, and tim
othy hay is dead ripe and should be
put up at once. Dubuque was visited
by copious showers Tuesday afternoon
and everyone in Manchester is hoping
that the heat spell will give way TO
more moderate temperature.
