Mrs. Caroline Erause has again applied for a divorce from her husband,

ou two different occasions. In other
words, she has three times been married to the same man, the last marriage haying taken place on the twenty-
eighth of June, 1SSS. They have five
children, between the ages of eight and
twenty-six years. The last divorce is
asked for on the ground of extreme
cruelty. If she obtains this divorce,
her's will be a record not often equalled and almost never broken—married
to and divorced from the same man
three times.—Argus.
Information reaches us of the disappearance of Jacob Shanz, who resides
near Pleasant Lake in Freedom, on
Monday night of last week, with 5650

Shanz married her and had been left
some property in Freedom by her first
husband, named. Obermiller. This
property was recently sold and part of
the proceeds invested in another place
in au adjoining 'township. ' The- remainder of it was left in this city for
a time' but finally, at the instance of
her husband, Mrs. Schanz got it and
kept it in the house. Schanz left a letter behind him which ran something
like this: "Good-bye, Mrs, Shanz, or
Obermiller, whichever they call you.
Move alone on your new place. You
told ma to go to tha devil. I'm going
—I'm going to California.'" On another side of tho paper he said: -'The
deed you'll find in the bureau drawer.
The money I took. 1 didn't steal it."
Opinions were divided as to whether
Schanz has gone to California or to
Germany.—Argus.
April Crop Report.
For this report returns have been received from S32 correspondents representing 640 townships. Five hundred
and fifty-four of these reports are from
385 townships in* the southern four tiers
of counties; and 151 reports are from
137 townships in the central counties.
The condition of wheat on April 1st,
compared with vitality and growth, of
average years, was in the southern
four tiers of counties, 70; in the central
counties, 65; and in the northern counties, 86. These are the lowest averages
ever reported on April 1st. In 1889
the condition in the southern counties
was reported at 89; in 1888 at 81; and
in 1887 at 88. In the central counties
the condition in 1889 was 92; in 1888,
83; and in 1887, 94. Wheat is in better
condition in the western and south-,
western counties, than elsewhere in
the state.
The weather has been unfavorable
most of the time since seeding. The
rain fall in the southern counties during July and August was 3.62 inches
below the normal, and the ground at
the time of seeding seemed to be thoroughly dry, but the drouth continued,
and by the end of September the deficiency in rainfall amounted to nearly
six inches, and by the end of October
to 8.24 inches. In other words the
rainfall during the four months July,
August, September and October 1889,
was eight and one-fourth inches less
than the normal for these months.
Wheat came up very slowly, in many
cases not at all. On the first of November the best hadmade small growth.
During this month the weather was
exceptionally favorable and the plant
improved greatly. On the first of December the condition in the southern
counties was 67, as compared with 58
one month, earlier. December was
warm and wet, and wheat made some
growth. The average temperature of
this month in the southern counties
was ten degrees above the normal, and
it rained on all except five days of the
month. Correspondents very generally reported that wheat looked better at
the close than at the beginning of the
month.
During January and February the
ground was bare of snow and the average temperature high, but the alternate freezing and thawing is believed to
have done much damage. Fn the
southern and central counties the average temperature in March was nearly
two and one-fifth degrees below, and
the precipitation nearly one-half inch
below the normal.
Clover meadows and pastures arc
seriously injured. The average condition in the southern counties is 75, in
'the central 71, and in the northern 92.
These figures show the condition much
lower than one year ago.
Live stock is in fairly good condition.
The outlook is favorable for a fair
crop of all kinds of fruit except
peaches.
What Colors "Will Photograph.
The time was when the photographer
required certain colors in dress to produce good effects. Now, with experience and the improvements in chemicals, these restrictions are removed.
He can photograph white as well as
black. The capable artist prides himself on his ability to show the most
delicate and elaborate lace-work on
the hridal dress.
With these restrictions no longer
necessary, I would say—wear your
most becoming dress.
Blue and Pink will photograph white.
Purple will appear many shades
lighter than it is in reality.
Red and deep yellow ftppear black,
or nearly so.
Strong contrasts in dress or trimmings will give a gaudy effect.
Subdued and quiet colors make the
neat picture. For example sec the
pictures of nuns, or the lovely pictures
of Quaker ladies.—The Ladies Home
Journal. ,
