HICKS FOR JUNE.

Gives little Hope for Warmer Weather— Hall, Rain and Storing the Bill of Fare.

Weather Prognosticator Hicks made a very successful estimate of the weather we_have had during thiB cold month of May and he offers but little hope for much warmer weather in June. The old German weather guesserg have all along predicted a cool summer and the Rev. Hicks seems to bear them out.

For next month he says: There are several astronomical causes bearing on June this year that promise to make its storms and other phenomena exceptional. From the 3rd to 6th, look for high temperature and many Btorms, progressively from western to eastern extremes. A Venus equinox is central on the Vth, and will be a dominating influence in all the first half of June. Much lightning and thunder may b«. expected. From 9th to 12th is an active time of rain and storms. Cooler spells will follow storms of rain, hail and thunder. The I5th to 18th is another marked storm period. Consult your barometer and watch the clouds. Many electrical displays from 31st to 24th, with heavy ramB and wind. The 26th to 30th is the last regular storm period. Be on the watch for frequent and heavy showers throughout the month. Cool weather will prevail.

Outlook For Crops.

The weekly crop bulletin for Indiana, issued Tuesday, says: Cool and generally cloudy weather, with a few local rains, prevailed during the week. Wheat is heading, promising an early harvest in the southern portion of the state. In the northern portion, and in some counties of the central portion the crop does not promise well, and the fly and rust are doing much injury everywhere.

Rye is heading, promising a fair crop, except in the northern portion. Oats, clover, timothy and meadows are fresh and green, promising well. Clover is heading, but much white top is in the meadows. In the northern portion many clover meadows are in poor condition. Tobacco plants have advanced enough for transplanting although not very large, they are in fine condition. Potatoes are growing well.

Corn iB nearly all planted cool weather retarded its growth, but most fields are under cultivation. The cut worm is doing some injury. All fruits except peaches, promise well, although apples are falling off still they promise a good yield. Blackberries are in bloom. Strawberries are on the market from the southern portion they are ripening farther north. Pasturage is excellent, and live stock is in good condition. Sheep shearing has ended.

Jessie Mae Hall.

Jessie Mae Hall, the clever little actress who has frequently been seen here, is setting all New York wild at the American theatre, where 6he appears in "We Uns of Tennessee." Miss Hall appears in the play in her bare feet, and the dramatic papers Bay that "her foot is her fortune." The length of her foot is exactly 7 inches. The width across the sole is 2 inches. The girth of the arched instep is 8 inches, and the circumference of the anckle is 9% inches. Jessie's head has just about the same measurements.

Has Injured the Fruit.

The cold weather we have had for the last few dayB has materially injured the fruit. AppleB, pears and cherries are falling from the trees in large quantities and even the plums are showing the effects of the bad weather. Fruit growers fear that if it continues the fruit crop will be practically ruined. The corn, which is out of the ground, is also suffering.

HANNAN-SPEED.

The Nuptials of a Popular Young Couple Consummated at the First Presbyterian Church Wednesday.

Albert Hannan, of Jonesboro, and Miss Mabel Speed, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Speed, were married at WedneBnoon day at the First Presbyterian church. The altar was banked with palius for the occasion but there were no other decorations. The ushers, Capt. C. O. Wilhite, Joseph C. Herron, Clarence McClure and Walter Schleppy, seated the guests on arrival and over four hundred were present when the hour for the ceremony arrived. The entrance of the bridal party was heralded by the Btrains of the wedding march from "Lohengrin," Miss Josie Stilwell presiding at the organ. The groom with his best man, Mr. Willard Elkins, of Jonesboro, followed the officiating clergyman, Dr. E Thomson, from the vestry and met the bride at the altar. The bride and her attendants entered by the west aisle and were preceded by the ushers to the altar. Miss Vivian Bolyarri, the bridesmaid, led, attired in a costume of blue dimity with satin trimmings *She carried yellow roses. The maid of honor, Miss Rose Scott, immediately preceded the bride and wore a gown of pink dimity, ribbon trimmings, and carried pink roses. The bride entered on the arm of her father. She wore white silk organdie over silk with satin and Irish point trimmings. The gown was made entraine, high neck and long sleeves. The bride wore the veil and carried the bride's roses At the altar the party formed a semi-circle about the chancel and the marriage was impressively performed. The full ritual of the Episcopal church was employed, including the giving away of the bride by her father and the responsive ring service. During the ceremony Miss Stilwell softly played the march from Lohengrin and upon the benediction being pronounced struck up the Mendelssohn, to which the party retired from the church by the east aisle. The wedding party took carriages at the church door for the home of the bride's parents on west Pike street, where a wedding breakfast was served the bridal party, the relatives of the contracting parties, and a few intimate friends. The bride was the recipient of many handsome presents from her friends, quite a number of elegant pieces being in the list. Mr. and Mrs. Hannan left in the evening for their future home in Jonesboro and will begin housekeeping at once, the groom having prepared a residence for their reception. They will be at home to their friendB after June 7. The congratulations and best wishes of a large number of warm friends follow them in their new life. Both Mr. and Mrs.

Hannan are excellent young people and their union is one which can but be a happy and useful one.

The guests present from out of the city at the marriage ware Mr. Willard Elkins, of Jonesboro Mrs. S. E. Hannan, of IndianapoliB iMiss Carrie Hannan, of Marion Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Hannan, of Montezuma Misses Fannie and Minnie Britton, of Covington Mrs. Ed Lay ton, of Linden Misses Bird Boord, Lou Bell and Alma McDonald, of Covington.

Still Undecided.

The bids submitted for the building of the new Crawford hotel were considerably in excess of the architect's estimates and the improvement may consequently be delayed or for the present deferred. The bids included everything and provided for the work to be done in pressed brick. Besides the bids made on some parts of the woik such as plumbing and masonry, the following bids for the complete job were made: Wert& Carr, O'vllle 178,266 Milt Bishop, C'ville 72.9B8 E. O.

Fish L»w Unconstitutional. At Anderson there is a fishing club composed of 100 members who organized to test the validity of the new fish law. The first of the week one of the members was sent fishing with a hook and line in a running stream of water. The fisherman was arrested and tried before a judge and a verdict was rendered declaring that the lawwas unconstitutional. Whether this decision will be a precedent or not, is anxiously watched by the entire state.

Funeral of Albert Corn.

The funeral of Albart Corn took place Wednesday under the auspices of the K. of P. The interment was held at the Harahbarger cemetery. Mr. Corn was one of the pioneers of the county.

Tuk ancients believed that rheumatism was the work of a demon within a man. Any one who has had an attack of sciatic or inflammatory rheumatism will agree that the infliction is demoniac enough to warrant the belief. It has never been claimed that Chamberlain's Pain Balm would cast out demons, but it will cure rheumatism, and hundreds bear testimony to the truth of this statement. One application relieves the pain, and this quick relief which ft affords is alone worth many times its cost. For sale by Nye & Booe, druggists.

HOME

duties to many women seem more important than health. No matter how ill they feel, they drag themselves through the daily tasks and pile up trouble.

This is heroic but a penalty has to be paid. A woman in New Matamoras, Ohio, Mrs. Isadfll Bradfield, tells in the following letter how she fought with disease of the feminine organs until finally forced to take to her bed. She says

Dear Mrs. Pinkham—I feel it my duty to write to you to tell you that I have taken Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and think there is no medicine in the world like it. I suffered for nine years, and sometimes for twelve weeks at a time I could not stand on my feet. I had female troubles of all kinds backache, and headache all the time.

advice is promptly given without charge. The present Mrs. Pinkham's experience in treating female ills is unparalleled for years she worked side by side with Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkliam, and for sometime past has had sole charge of the correspondence department of her great business, advising and helping by letter as many as a hundred thousand ailing women during a single year.

Harry Sargent,'Writes.

George L. Sergent, of Columbus, haB received the following letter from his brother, Harry, of this city, who ib in the Philippines:

Manila, Philippine Islands. April 17, 1899.—Dear Brother:—As this is Sunday and a fine morning, I write you a few lines to let you know that I am well and enjoying my camp life "muchly." My company is out on fire line and I am left behind (to my sorrow) to take charge of the barracks ,.nd company belongings. The company has been on the fire line for three weeks. The boys come in every chance they have, as they are only five miles from Manila.

One of the boys of our company died of the small pox, the first death of our company since our arrival. Our health here is good and the boys are all in good condition. The weather here ia very, very hot and all I have to do is write, eat, hunt shade and sleep, as everything iB very quiet here now.

The 12th and 17th regiments arrived yesterday. They came the same route we did, viz: by New York, and say they had a great trip. So did we on our trip.

I got very tired of the water. We were thirteen dayB out of sight of land, from New York to Gibraltar, but from Gibraltar to Port Said we saw plenty of land, and from Port Said we went through the Suez Canal, and let me tell you it was a grand sight. We went through at the rate of five miles to the hour so you can see we went slow enough to seel every thing. We went through in the day time. We pulled into Prenin, just a little ways from Ciden, and took coal, and from there we .pulled'to Colombo and coaled, and then sailed to Singapore and coaled, and from there we pulled into Mauila bay. We were just fifty-four days on the water and though I enjoyed my trip immensely I was glad to reach Manila. We pulledfthrough the bay up to the old city ofiManila. You see there is a river just about half way and this divides the twojtowns. One iB called Old Manila and the other New Manila. Well, dear brother, it is my dinner hour and I will have to stop for this time. Hoping to hear from you real soon, and promising you a more newsy letter next time, I will close. I am as ever,

Your Loving Brother, IIahhv B. Sergent.

Manila, Philippines, Co. M, 4th Inf. P. S.—I send yout a picture taken in my uniform. Thi6 is what we wear all the time. Haiiry,

To Terre Haute,

Over 100 persons took the Terre Haute special on Tuesday from here. There were seventeen coaches well filled passing here. No state encampment has ever had such attractions nor so many people in attendance as the present one at Terre Haute.

WOMAN'S DEVOTION•, TO HOME

Seven different doctors treated me. Some said I would have to go to the hospital and have an operation performed. But oht how thankful I am that I did not, that

I tried your Vegetable Compound instead. I cannot say too much in its praise, nor thank you enough for what it has done for me. I want you to publish this in all the papers for the good of other sufferers."

The wives and mothers of America are given to overwork. Let them be wise in time and at the first indication of female trouble write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass., for her advice. This
