The week ending Saturday, August 22d 1896, was more favorable for crops and especially for farm work than any since the middle of Jply. The first two days of the week continued warm, but on the 18th very beneficial rains occurred at alarge number of places, foilowing which the temperature drop- ped below the normal, with some agree- ably cool nights. The rainfall was not sufficient to break the drought gen— erally, but caused some improvement in the crop conditions. EASTERN DISTRICT Past week was favorable. Good rains occured on several dates, chiefly on the 18th, but small in amount, and were folloned by several agreeably cooler days. Late corn, peas, turnips and potitoes were benefitted, The ex- tent te which cotton has been cut off over the State is variously estimated from one-fourth to’onehalf, Cotton ts opening rapidly and will all be picked out by the middle of October. It needs more rain to mature bolls, though rain would prosably notcause any New bolis to form. Early corn came through all right, but late is poor, though aided by showers this week. Fodder is nearly all pulled in the South. Curing tobacco about finished. Mak ing sorgaum syrup has begun. sais broughy out turnip seeds and further planting is progressing. Peas are forming fruit fairly ; rice and sweet po tatoes are still very good; pea-nuts suffered considerably from the drought. CENTRAL DISTRICT. The hot spell was broken on the 18th and cooler, pleasant weather fol- lowed, which was more benefi-ial to those pulling fodder and picking cotton than to crops. Scattered raivs occurred on Tuesday, but many counties rv main entirely dry and experienced further decline in crop conditions, Cotton 1s still shedding in places; is opening fast, especially on sandy land, lint is short and the crop generally a great dis. appointment. In many places foader is allsaved ; not mucna will be made frum late corn, ‘Tobacco is generally poer and not curing 80 well, thongh it seoms to be all right in color, and the potatoes are needing rain, Some farm- ers have begun to maxe sorghum mo- lasses. Soil not fitfor plowing. WESTERN DISTRICT. The first part of the week was still warm and dry, but followed by local showers and cooler weather: a few nights were very cool. Favorable showers occurred on the 18th and 22d, but by no means sufficient to break the | drought, while over large portions of the district no rain has fallen. The general crop c¢ndition have, however, improved Cott n still inclined to wilt and shed tors, some fields much worse than others; bolls are small; picking pro- greasing with prospects for nothing like a full crop. Fodder-pulling fully under way; With sufficiet rain late corn would make a short crop. ‘Tobacco seems to be curing nicely, Cabbage is not much guod; peas and sweet potatoes doing tolerably well ; molasses making begun; some plowing and seedieg tur- nins was accomplished ; Jarge amounts of excellent hay stacked and ready for- housing in the west.

The man Koonce was found in | co one of the huts of which “James City” is built up. He ran off making a lunge witha knife at Thompson, and several shots vere fired at him. The colored churches were just then turning out, and Koonce escaped into the thickest ot the crowd. One of the officers, Rum- ley, ran around to head him off. The other man, Thompson, plunged into the midst of the crowd in pursuit of the outlaw. He was grabbed by the excited negroes, and with a sharp blow - from a heavy stick the pistol was knocked from his hand. “The mob grew frenzied,and cries of “Lynch him” “Damn him, kill him so that he can “Club him,’ &c., were Yo» tell no tales | heard on every side.

A post-mortem examination of near- ly seventy person wh had died from excessive use of ardent spirits showed the following facts : 1. Congestion of the scalp and of the membrance of the brain, with much serious (watery) effusion. The sub- stance of the brain white and firm, as if it had lain in alchol for one or two hours. 2. The lungs not always, but fre- quently congested or inflamed. 3. The heart flabby enlarged, dilated, and loaaed with fat yutside ; the blood in it of a cherry-red color, and with no tendency to coagulate. 4, The stomach pertectly white, and thickened in some cases; in others hav- ing patches of chronic inflammation. In the worst cases a large portion of the stomach covered with that species ot inflammation which causes the blood to be pured from the minute veins. 5. The liver enlarged—in old drunk- cards to pounds. 6. The omentum—a sort of apron which immediately covers the abdomen in tront—loaded with a gray, sloshy tat. 7. The kidneys enlarged, flabby an infiltrated in numerous spots with whit- ish matter. 8. The small intestines filled. with bile and coated with a tenacious mucus, ), The blood ina very fluid condi- tion, having but little fibrine, but much albumen and fat. 10.

Commercial It is because you do do not know ‘what | o: the time may make money. The advertiser who advertises all of the time almost always makes money. It doesn’t make any difference what you think, or what Igfhink, when the tact stares both of us in the face, that while all who advertise may not make money, few make money who do not advertise, and that those who make the most money, are those who advertise ali the time. There may be several men in your town who have tairly well succeeded with advertising a part of the time, but if your town is like most towns, the men who succeed all the time are the men who advertise all the time. When times are good, advertising pays, because, although there be much ‘| advertising, there is much buying. When times are bad, advertisin, pays, because although there may be little buying, there is little advertising, and the man who conspicuous, and stanas more in a class advertises 18 more by himself, and draws from those who don’t advertise the business that might be their’ if they did advertise. Dull time advertising, sometimes pays better than good time advertising, because some people are buying all the time, and they are more likely. to buy of the man who advertises, than of the man who doesn’t. Times may be dull now. Times ought to be dull now. Times can’t be good all the time. It times are very dull in your town, it is largely tecause the local merchant assists in making them dull by thinking they are dull, TWINKLINGS. “You broke the engagement ?” “Yes: it was either the engagement or 'me”— Detroit Tribune. —A man never needs a vacation halt g much as when he has just returned r. _ | } } —When women serve regularly as jurors of cquree they will be required ‘to’ 1 take oath that they will permit the law yers do the talking —Chicago Post. mapy stops the new organ of De One tor each meal.” —Buffalo Times.
