COPIOUS RAIN SHOWERS
BRIN a GLADNESS TO MANY
Will Prove of Immense Benefit
to Winter WheatFarmers
Are Rejoicing-
It has been many months, in
fact some say a year, since the soil
intnis vicinity has been as well
soaked bv rain, as at the present
time. It is scarcely possible to
estimate the value of this moist
ure to the farmers the county
over. The majority of the far
mers have sown almost all of
their winter wheat, not a little
of which has been above the
ground for some time but has
been held back from the lack of
moisture. The rains of the past
week will give the tender plants
new life and will contribute to
their growth.
While the rain waa not gen
eral throughout the county, in
the vicinity of Condon, the rain
fall was heavy for thia season of
the year.

They had tried quite a number of

successfully. At last they decided to
drown him out; so, procuring four
palls, each took two, and they carried
water tor two solid hours and poured
It Into the hole In the ground In which
the said chuck had taken op his abode.
Gettlug tired, they sat down. After
about half an hour tbe woodchuck
cautiously left the hole and deliberate
ly walked down to tbe brook and took
a Jong drink of water and then scooted,
much to the dlsguBt of the two boys.

A STRANGE TAGEANT.
Annual Moreh of Mohammodant to tho
Tomb of fVoM.
One of the strang-eur of all the pag
eant wblrb are to tie seen in Jerusa
lem la the auniial march of the Mo
hammedans to tbe tomb of Muaea. To
them, as well as to Christians aud
Jews, Moses is a prophet of tbe high
est bonor. But, rejecting the traditions
of the Hebrews, they refuse to believe
tbat be was bnrled iu a valley in tbe
land of Moab, as la described in tbe
last cbaptr of Deuteronomy. Instead
tbey assert that be was buried where
be breathed his last, upon the summit
of Mount NebO.
Therefore eacb year at the time of
the Greek Easter tbe faithful gather
by thousands In the early morning be
fore the site of tbe temple of Solomon
In perfect silence waiting for day
break. Later tbe strange scene of quiet
Is entirely transformed, fanatics danc
ing and preaching, hordes of dervishes
whirling about in mysterious "sacred"
dances and bund reds of exborters rous
ing the enthusiasm of their fellows.
Tbe scene Is gaudy wltb hundreds of
red and green banners, and the only
semblance of order Is in the seinlregu
lar organisations of marchers.
At lust tbe procession forms, with
the banners borne ahead, an liuuu
bearing tbe yataghan of tbe prophet
a short, straight edged sword used by
tbe armies of Mohammed and after
them more dancers and marchers.
A large part of the population of Je
rusalem gathers about the gate, out of
which the procession moves toward
tbe Mount of Olives, but few besides
the faithful endeavor to obtain a place
In the ranks of marchers, since death
has often been tbe penalty of an at
tempt by a non-Mohammedan to make
this march to "Nebl-Mouca," the "tomb
of Moses."
Traders of many kinds Invade the
camp, for the marchers remain at the
mosque live days, and all their sup
plies must be bought from the wan
dering merchants, who make a busi
ness of looking after their needs. Aft
er the first excitement fanaticism
yields to good humor, and games and
banter till the time for those who
have paid their duties at tbe tomb.
The mosque on Nebo Is one of the
most sacred of Mohammedan shriues
and one of the most difficult for a
Christian to approach.
An English traveler who brought nu
(Order from the norte was denied .ad
mittance, and. although lu recent years
It has become possible to enter. It Is
too early yet to forget the esierlcuco
of one traveler who came bearing a
order of admittance from the saltan
himself.
"This finnan," the guardian priest
said, "commands me to let you enter the
mosque. . "Very well; you can euter.
But think well before you do so, for
I mid nothing written here about let
ting you out again!"

are satisfied with the goods you
