The crop and weather reports made
by the government today for this State
Is a gloomy one. It sayt that notwith
standing some improvement In crop con
ditions caused by local rains over limited
areas, the reports of crop correspondents
for the week ending last -night, are
generally very unfavorable. Tbundei-
sbowers occurred Monday, ISth, and
Thursday 16tb, nights, with the most
abundant precipitation along a line
from Oharlotto through Raleigh to Koi
folk, Va., but north and south' of this
line, as well as over the . majority ' of
counties near the coast and ia the moun
tain section, very little or no precipita
tion whatever was reported. Moreover
In those counties where rain did occur
its influence was but temporary, and the
soil Is now as dry almost as before.. The
heat has not abated; the meaa tempera
tare was again 8 degrees daily above the
normal, with maxima from BO degreee to
100 every day of the week, Practically,
therofore, the drought altli prevails with
almost undiminished intensity,: and Is
extremely distressing over those coun
ties which have received no rata , what
ever, .flowing for fall crops is impossi
ble; jery few-turnips have been sown'
fodder palling, however, hts made good
headway. .. :iVl
, Cottoa is holding out well .only on
stiff clay lands; ail other crope have un
questionably deteriorated very ; much;
the rata of the 10th caused some im
provemeat In places; a large number of
correspondents state that cotton . bolls
are very small and are opening . prema
turely, and lint from such cottoa .can
not fall to be short and Inferior la qua
ily; fresh blossoms are not forming and
shedding continue. An re porta agree
that the cotton ' crop, once the most
promising crop In the Bute, .has been
materially cut short by the drought.
Picking has has commenced, and the
first new bales have bean marketed.
Young cora throughout tbe sections
where showers occurred may : yield
fair crop under future favorable condi
tions, but generally the core crop is
sow very poori much fodder bat dried
op completely before tbe ear have
lured. - Tobacco is ripening, very fast,
and the late crop is not good; catting
and curing bave advanced steadily. Pea
nutssweet potatoes, and rice do sot
seem to be doing well, though- refreshed
by showers here and there. . Gardena are
practically worthies. Bummer apple
have bera scalded aad bar dropped
considerably; winter applee also are
poor, and on the whole the apple crop Is
Inferior,' though many counties west of
tbe Bine Ridge report a fall aad use
crop. '.. - ..- . ".

Cuioaoo, August M. Sol Bloom, a

for refusing to serve -him while, he was

that patrons wearing sbiit waists would

Washwotow, 1 Aug, Si -Mr H. F.
Coggswell, of Cblcagu, who has excel

pulse darlug his travels, dropped a few
remarks la Washington, that might be
studied with Interest If not with profit
by the professional politician. , He said:
The people everywhere are busy,' much
Co busy to bother their l-esds about poli

them. The spellbinders will have a let
of trouble stirring '- up say eiitbbaiesm
this year, and, despite the Increase ia
population, I predict that the vote will
be much lighter than It was four yera

Russia Is vigorously endeavoring- to se
cure American support and to break tbe

"England," says tbe Diplomat In ques

America which offers her Ibe slightest
ground for hoping a friendly bearing of
her case., The, bluer feeling of today
will generate war against her tomorrow.
Russia's plan, Whlcluls encouraged by

Is to strip Great Britain of all aupport
