CORII PROSPECTS HOT FLATTERIHG
Government Report for August Shows Crop Has , Been Damaged.
JACK GRIMM WHO
MEETS M'GANN
Judged by the ' government reports
concerning the corn crop throughout the United State aa issued by the government at Washington, yesterday,
'"Wayne county will not produce the av
erage crop of the last ten years,
' Indiana's corn crop has a total acre
age that equals 4.4 per cent of the ag-
isregate acreage In the United States.
The average crop In Indiana for the
(last ten years has been figured at 84 Ser cent, a high average. On July Jl the condition of the growing crop indicated that the year's average would exceed by 7 per cent the general average for the last ten years, but on .August 1, according to government rejKrts, the condition Indicated a slump 'to 80 per cent. In other words as now viewed by the government's crop experts the Indiana production of corn promises to fall behind the average 'for the last ten years. The skimp Is noi confined to any kone locality In the country, but ap
pears to be general. The Intense hot weather of the month of July, with comparatively little rain is responsible for the falling off. Wayne county : farmers have for several weeks been 'fearful that the drought would cut the crop short and even the copious rains

Browning bad a maid in his service who bad a gift for saying quaint
things. When the poet was going to
pay the last mark of respect to George Henry Lewes she said she "didn't see the good of catching cold at other people's funerals." And once, when he
was away on a holiday and a Journalist came to the door to inquire If it was true that the poet was dead, she
indignantly answered. "I have not
heard so, and I am sure my master is not th kind of a man to do such a
thing without lettine us know."

Deborah Was a Fighter. Deborah Sampson was a young woman of Plymouth. Mass.. who served
with distinction during the Revolutionary war. She enlisted at the age of eighteen under the name of Robert
Shurtcliff e. The military records show that the young private had a splendid
army career. No hardship of battle
was too trying for Deborah. She
soon won the confidence of the officers,
and was not infrequently called upon
to perform the most dangerous enterprise. She was twice wounded. Toward the end of the war her sex was discovered, and she was given an hon
orable discharge from service. Later she received a pension and a grant of
land.

The Barbarous Suite.
Suttee, or the practice of immolat
ing widows on their husband's funeral
Dvres In India, was first attacked by
hA British sro vera men t in 1S29. It
was on Dec. 4 of that year that Lord William Bentinck carried a resolution In council by which all who abetted suttee were declared guilty of "culpable homicide." In the year 1817 700 widows were burned alive in Bengal alone, but since the passing of the act the practico has entirely died out. Suttee was really a primitive rite, a survival from barbarous times, and not sanctioned by Hlndoolsm, the pas
sage lu the Vedas supporting It being a willful mistranslation. But no previous governor had the courage to vio
late the British tradition of religious toleration. Lord William Bentinck also suppressed thugglsm. which made
strangling a religious rite to the goa-
dess Kali.
An Ancient Tragedy. A historical paper in Lord Montagu's
collection in London tells of a strange
tragedy "done in llolborn. a little be
fore Christmas," several centuries ago: "A boy seven years old came up into a
centleman's chamber and nrattiea to
him and drew his sword and flourished
with It The gentleman, being in bed,
wondered to see the boy toss his blade so and said: 4So, good boy. thou hast done well. Put In the sword. The boy persisting, the gentleman rose and held him tbe scabbard, and the rude handed lad, thinking to sheath the sword.
lustily chopt it into his body. Compa

tbe child. 'Let him alone. quoth the gentleman. God is just. This boy's father did I kill five years since and none knew. Now be hath revenged
it. And the gentleman died the sec ond dressing.

Feed and Strength.
Remember that the food yon take
one day supplies tbe strength yon put
forth tbe next. It is then a mistake to take a heavy meal on the day of
heavy work. The time to take It is the day before. Wise stablemen know
this, and when a horse has a long day's drive before him they give him only what Is called a cfeeek feed," a
very light meal, to be followed at night
with a heavy one. So there are two good reasons for a man's not eating mnch on the day of stress. It adds nothing to his strength on that day.
and the process of digestion calls the
blood to work at the stomach when ev
ery ounce of it Is needed at the brain.
Exchange is a game at which every one can play and every one can be a winner. To enter the game you need only put a short Want Ad in the Palladium. Have you anything you DONT want? Is there anything you DO want? Have you an extra watch you would lite to exchange for a shot-gun? Have you books you'd exchange for a phonograph? ; A bicycle for a violin? A Maltese cat for a canary bird? Why not exchange the one for the other? You'll profit and so will the other fellow. A Want Ad in the Palladium will quickly bring you both together. YouTl be rid of something for which you no longer have any use, and in its stead youH have something you very much desire to own. ...T13Y OT... Rhone 2GGG 11 c Per Word 7 E2ayG For the Price of S
