Dr. H. E. Judge, a late arrival
from west New York was introducing

He represents a religious denomina

Tbe weather is extremely dry asd
sultry in this part of the hemisphere
and we are sadly iu ueed of a rail) to
refresh and invigorate tbe vegetables
and grass, and if it is not forthcoming
fall feed will be scarce. Already the
milk is falling off at tbe creameries
wbicb is premature in accordance
with other seasons. Tbe farmers have
their hay secured ami a raiufall
would be a blessing. Tbe fruit crop
is figuratively speaking a failure
Certain locations are more furtuuate
than others but as a whole it is a fail
ure. This is something wbicb here
tofore unknown in this county. Even
tbe blackberries have failed to re
s[s>ud abundantly. Tbe berry pickers
can Le seen returning with empty
buckets, and a disappointed look up
on tbeir countenances.
A great mauy of unr citizens have
hied away to tbe city by the sea to
recuperate and breaibe some pure
ozone from tbe placid walers of the
Pacific ocean, aud at tbe present time
otir city resembles a cemetery to a
certain extent. However there are
some improvements going on in the
form of dwelling bouses. J. A. Lamb s
tine residence is nearing completion.
Paulson, Wm. Nye and Bel Ion I, have
commenced the construction of tine
residences on Nob Hill aod when
completed will be a tine acquisition
to tbe already palatial residences in
that fashionable locality.

will be praying for tbe Tupper Rock
to fall upon you or be tempted to
commit suicide by jumping iu the
river to shield yon from ber scurrilous
old tongue, which when thorough))
lubricated w ill wallop you to a finish.
Better yon have Judge Quick sit on
her for insanity. Poor Lynn comes
to town occasionally to see us boys
but everything is dry aud he said be
guessed he would come no more, no
place to refresh. Go to church oi
stand in tbe street snd meditate ovei
tbe situation, over what it might be
if things were different, ami then
grasp the first opportunity to get
away Io tbe city by tbe sea or Marsh
field.
