Another Big Rain Fell Monday Night

The few days of fine weather ended Sunday, which was a pleasun t and vei*y' hot growing day. Monday was showery, and at night an extremely heavy rain fell, about midnight, which again put threshing on the bum. The rainfall at St. Joseph’ college as shown by the goverment register, Monday night, was 1.55 inches. Yesterday was bright and pleasant again, but such a trememdous rain . fell here that it will be two or three days before threshing can be resumed.
