For" the period of forty years, since the establishment of the local weather bureau, tbe month of May just closed is, with two exceptions, a record month for summer drought.

During the month just closed there have been but 1.23 inches of rainfall. There is but one month in this entire time. May. 1881, which falls under it in point of rainfall, that month 1.14 inches having fell, while in May, 1S75, the rainfall waa exactly what it was In May this year. 1,23 inches.

One and twenty-three one-hundredth laches is. decidedly under the normal, which is 3.70. thus giving a deficiency for the month of 2.49 inches, and a total deficiency for tbe year is now. with the added deficiency of -the month closed, recorded as 1.29 inches, that much less than the normal amonnt of rain having fallen since the first day of January. To make this situation sir the more insufferable, both to humanity and incompatible with good crops, the beat has been decidedly above norma The records in temperature for the month of May show that there was daily excess of three and nine-teat hs degrees ss compared with normal.

tbe average daily excess being only seven-tenths degrees less than this during the entire period since January 1st. so hi. with the close of May, the total excess of heat has been recorded as 476 degrees. The bur best temperarnre during, the month was recorded as 93 degrees, and the lowest 39-3. The first record was ciade the 27th and the latter oa the 3rd of the month.

The greatest amonnt of all occurring on any day of tbe "nonth was 0.61 inches, and this amount fell on both the 22nd and SSrel Lonsdale Voters Elect Their Entire Ticket. i' Eecorder Householder Showed the Way Dr. H. E. Christ en -berry the Mayor, The bt-eanial municipal election held in Lonsdale Thursday, was a rather one-sided affair, the count showing a landslide for the progressive faction, which was beaded by Dr.

II, Chris-tenberry. With rery few exceptions, the progressive candidates defeated their opponents' by a Tote of two to one, while in several Instances, the citizens' candidates were defeated by aa almost three to one majority. Of course, the hardest fight was made for mayor and recorder, and although the citizens' party been claiming all along that J. J. Huddleston would be mayor by large majority, the voting yesterday gave Dr.

Cbrietenberry the Tictory, 223 to 97. In the race for recorder. Chas. Householder, candidate for reelection on the progressive, ticket defeated his opponent, J. T.

Mynatt, 159 rotes, tbe rote being 239 for Householder, against only 80 for Mynatt. That Mr. Householder made a very satisfactory recorder daring his eighteen months in office, and that the citizens of that suburb are pleased with the manner in 'which he carried on their affairs, was shown yesterday by his leading the ticket, he having received the largest rote of any candidate. That municipal affairs in Lonsdale will go on daring the coming two years as they have been daring the past eighteen months, goes without saying, as the newly elected town "dads" were supported by the outgoing council, and their platform is the same as that of the retiring officials. Wheelbarrow Ride, The election passed off very quietly, there being no disorder of any nature.

One incident which has aroused considerable merriment was a wager made by Esquire Norman and W. B. Adcock, the latter aldermanic candidate on the citizens' ticket. It seems that Adcock declared during the day that his vote would pass Jthe one hundred mark, and Esquire Norman aid that if Adcock did get one hundred to test he would roil him around a square in a wheelbarrow; bat should it fall short of the one hundred Norman was to have the ride. When, the -votes- were counted, it was found that Adcock bad 103 votes, go it was arranged that he should have the ride this ajternoon.

At six o'clock this evening, Esquire Norman will have his 'Georgia buggy' ready at: the recorder's office on New York avenue, and will roll Mr. Adcock to the drug store one square distant, where he will buy him a strawberry soda. Prom there, he will go around the block, and there stopping at a grocery store will "set.1 'em up" to a "dope. He will then proceed around the square and stop at 'the recorder' office, whence he starts. The ride will doubtless1 be witnessed by a large crowd.

Next Tuesday night ia the regular meeting night of the Lonsdale council, and at that time the newly- elected officers will be inaugurated. Dr. M. M. Copenhaver, the retiring mayor, will then turn over his office to Ir.

The Strawberry I'r-xl ueers and the Knox County Berry Truck Growers'; associations only shipped one car each yesterday, while they have been shipping four cars daily. It was at "first thought the two associations would ship four cars daily the rest of this week, but the berries are withering and failing on account of the unfaorable weather. Sales Managers Jno. E. Lane and J.

It. TL Hilton, of the associations, said yesterday they expected to have but a few more cars to ship this season. The recent rain did more harm than good, coming as late as it did. Mr. Hilton will leave for Atmore, Sat- urday, where he will oversee the shipping of several thousand crates of peaches now readv for the market.

Mr. Hilton is interested in a large fruit orchard at that place. The two associations of this city will close their shipping sheds.

Acted by noted phiyers of the Imperial theatre of Toko this Japanese tragedy of the silent drama ia one of the mraor-' able productions offered by the motion pictnrecamera. It is wonderfully well acted and tbe fight at the finish is the most exciting" ever presented in picture, land, includiug aa it does exhibition of Japanese wrestling, swordsmanship, boxing and jiu jitsu.

Tbe story tells of the journey of an aged Japanese traveler and his servant, who. weary-with walking, stop by a road aide to rest. A robber appears, knocks over tbe servant and slays the old man, taking bag of gold from the wayfarer's straw satchel. The robber flees to cave, which he is seen to enter by a wandering peddler. The latter goes on his way, and comes upon the reviving servant, who explains the cause of bis master's death.

The peddler gives the servant a woman's costume to wear, and a knife, telling him where tbe highwayman had bidden. He then takes note to tbe robber asking bim to meet a certain beautiful woman by an idol in tbe evening. The disguised srv-ant meets the robber and tbe fight, which is tbe most intensely exciting ever shown on a pktnre wall, begins, tbe murderer being killed. It is beautifully colored and is one of the rarest films ia the whole picture world.

Two sessions were held, afternoon and evening, and today there will -be three. This is the first time that a district convention of the society has ever been held here, there having been only state conventions in the past, and it is believed that much more good can be done by having conventions in the districts comprising the three great divisions of the stste.
