OAT OUTLOOK VERY PROMISING. Putilishfra' Tress, Disiwtoh. Washington, June 4. Following Is a summary of the Weather Bureau's weekly crop report: Corn has made slow growth over most of the corn belt and has suffered Injury from frost in the Ohio Valley and Lake Region.

Winter wheat has made favorable progress in the States of Missouri ami upper Mississippi Valleys, and in portions of the lower Ohio Valley. The crop has made splendid growth in Nebraska and a general improvement is reported from the upper lake region. Spring wheat is stooling well and is making plentiful growth throughout the Spring wheat region, exeept on low lands in Wisconsin. The outlook for oats continues favorable from the Middle Atlantic States and Ohio Valley Southward to the East Gulf and South Atlantic coast Harvesting Is completed in Texas and continues in the East Gulf and South Atlantic States. Cool nights have checked the growth of cotton throughout the Central and Eastern portions of the cotton belt, but the crop is promising, the least favorable reports coming from the Carolinas.

i 1 Tobacco transplanting has progressed fairly well in the Ohio Valley and Middle Atlantic States. Frosts have probably injured fruits in the Northern section of the Middle Atlantic States. Guaranteed Circulation. When the Rev. Madison C.

Peters, at one time a popular Philadelphia divine, was a very young man, he was invited to deliver the sermon in a rural church on a Sunday in June. The day was extremely warm; and a window behind the pulpit had been raised in the interests of ventilation. Mr. Peters laid the rather voluminous MS. of the sermon he had prepared on the desk of the pulpit, and began; but the third ward had not passed his lips when a breeze from the window caught the MS.

and blew its hundred-odd pages of note-size paper scatteringly over the expectant congregation. Mr. Peters looked fiustrated for a moment: then, recovering himself, he smiled and said: "Well, perhaps that sermon has reached more of you than if it had gone from the pulpit In the usual manner."

V. H. Snyder, Mrs. Maggie McNaughton and George Hal-loran, Youngstown. who were visiting Mr.

and Mrs. John Snyder, East North street, have returned. Is Gladly Extended by a New Castle Citizen.

A general raise in the salaries of principals of schools was made at, the regular meeting of the school board last night. The matter of teachers' wages will come up at a special meeting to be held later.

The salaries for next year wili be as follows: Lincoln and Garfield, Martin (Jantz. Central, schools, floo per month; Thad-dwis Stevens. Terrace Avenue and Sixth ward. $95 per month; Seventh ward, $90 per month; Highland, Oak Street and Croton, per month; Second ward and Lawrence schools, $80 per month. 1 This is a raise of $10 per month on all schools with the exception of Lawrence, Second Ward and Croton buildings, where the raise is $15 per mouth.

The raise was made on account of the increased cost of living and the raise of wages in other trades and professions. The following list of principals was re-elected for the ensuing year: Oak Street, lretta Dart; Croton, R. W. Skinner; Central, T. A.

Kimes; Thad-deus Stevens, G. T. Robinson: Lin coln and Garfield, J. P. Ilervey; Ter race Avenue, S.

II. Hadley; Sixth Ward, G. II. Bell; Seventh Ward, W. A.

Moore; Lawrence school, Roy G. Leslie. The members present were Patterson, Nothdurft, Vandegrift, James son, McKee, Smith, Falls, Barnes, Agnew, Horton, McCracken and Caldwell. President Patterson presided. Contractor Campbell and Architect Eckles were present and made statements to the effect that the new Croton building will be ready for acceptance on August 1st.

On motion of Vandegrift, Attorney Hazen was instructed to take such steps as may be necessary to get possession' of a portion of the Croton school grounds. A number of bills reported favorably by the finance committee were approved. Truant Officer W. E. Dowler reported 159 'phone calls and 139 reported in schools.

A warrant for $G0O on the Croton school contract was ordered drawn. Chairman of the finance committee reported that the committee recommended a levy of 5 mills school tax and 2 mills sinking fund. The report was adopted. This is the same levy as last year. Mr.

Falls reported that the new tax duplicates have not been made according to the requirements of the law. The matter wa3 referred to the printing committee President Patterson made the statement that he had found it to be ille gal to sign a warrant paying a principal during his absence from school. He had, therefore, refused to sign a warrant ordered. The order for him to sign it was reconsidered and the matter was laid on the table. The auditing committee was empowered to secure an auditor to audit the books of the Treasurer and Clerk.

The question of getting interest on the Treasurer's daily balance was brought up and Judge Hazen said that he knew of no law giving the Board power to designate what bank should have the funds. Mr. Falls opposed the motion on the grounds that if the money was given to a bank designated by the Board and the bank failed, the members of the Board would be individually liable. It was finally decided to ask for bids. Miss Emma Perry.
