Time does not even wait for fine weather, but hustles right along, so we must Im prove even the gloomy days to keep abreast of the times, or when the fine days come our negligence will give us a back seat whatever our calling. This is just as true of the farmer as of men of any other call ing. How many things can be done now to save time when the sun shines! The diligent person has no time to waste. How precious every hour to the successful lives! This impresses the correspondent more every year, as even in the rural 'dis trict stores, alleys or any place of meeting are so full "Just to kill time," nnd It may be that the fam ily is lacking Its dally bread. Soon the harvest is past, the summer Is ended, and your barns and store houses are empty. The Fourth Is to be celebrated by a picnic. The mothers' meeting of the W. C. T.

HOLD THAT VANE STEADY? IM lie Willing, Only I'd Break the Steeple, Says Weather Man. There is a portly wholesaler, a regular boarder at one of the hotels in town, who Is noted for several things but whose principal claim to local consideration Is based on the fact that he Is a weather optimist of the most decided character. Sunday afternoon, Just at sundown, he sat out on the piazza, his chair so plac ed that he could without getting up see the vane on the Methodist steeple, and remnrked that the little weather Instrument up there in the air was slowly but permanently shifting around to the westward. "That," said the weather optimist, "means fair weather. It's going to clear away. You men who said it would rain the whole of June have another prediction coming. Each of you owes me a cigar. I smoke 10 cent cignrs, remember." One man, a fellow boarder of the W. O.. observed that It might be a good plan for him to shin up the steeple and hold the vane to a west ern portion the rest of the month. "Nothing doing" was the compla cent rejoinder. "You see, I only weigh 205, and if I went up that steeple, why, I'd break the whole business down, before I'd got half way up to where I could take hold of the vane, and then what kind of weather would you folks get in Honesdale?" It is understood one of the cigars will be paid some time to-day. BASEBALL SCORES. Result! of Games Played In National and American Leagues. NATIONAL LEAGUE. At New York Chicago. 0; New York, 2.

Otflft On Ul'eater rilflllt. HE IS $10,000 HIGHER TODAY. Aviator's Wonderful Round Trip Aerial Voyage From New York to Phila delphia Hailed aa Great Tri umph of Air Navigation. New York. Juno 14. Today Chnrles K. Hamilton, the aviator, Is $10,000 richer than ho wns yesterday, nnd his famo has spread over a wider portion of the world's surfneo than ever be fore. Hia aerial flight from Xew York to Philadelphia and back again proved that Hamilton la more thnn a "dare devil man-bird." It places him high among the master aviators of the world. In completing tho wonderful flight Hamilton not only displayed dar ing, but tho resourcefulness nnd gen eralship essential to the conquest of the nlr. When his machine broke down on tho return voyage It looked for a time as though the $10,000 prlzo would slip from hla Angers, but Hamilton grimly hold to his purpose and at last sailed triumphantly back to bis start ing place. His prlzo was equal to that paid to Glenn H. Cnrtlsa for his air rido from Albany to New York. As Curtlss Is "a New York boy," New York was proud of his success and rejoiced with him. Hamilton Is "a Connecticut boy," and today Connecticut is rojoiclng. Hamilton's friends now declare that he will make an early start to win one of the big $25,000 nnd $30,000 prizes offered for aerial voyages from New York to Chicago and from New York to St Louis. They jubilantly say ho will surely meet with success In the great loug dlstanco voyage. Hamilton, the little redhalred acro bat of the upper airs, lifted his biplane Photo uj American Press Association. HAMILTON MAKING START, over Governors Island nt 7:43 o'clock yesterday moruiug, nud at 0:40 p. in. yesterday evening he returned to tho spot from which he started. The (light to Philndellipia was made without mischance. Straight as a plgeou on the wing Hamilton sailed over cities, rivers and farms, winging an unsurveyed course. At 9:2S a. m. he was shaking hands with Governor ! Stuart of Pennsylvania, eighty-six miles from Governors Island. I Hamilton's luck failed him on the ! Journoy home or he might by wheeling I around Yonkers have beaten Paul ! ban's record for uninterrupted flight ; 117 miles, Londou to Lltchlield. Fifty- three miles from Philadelphia he lost his bearings, mistaking a green patch of Jersey for Staten Island, and simul taneously two of the eight cylluders of his engine coughed nud quit work. Ho dropped Into the clutch of a swamp near South Amboy, and it was hours beforu repairs could be made and the aviator could escape tho Immense crowd that swarmed from tho Jersey towus. As It was, his actual flying time for the 172 miles was 200 minutes, and he fulfilled to the letter tils contract with tho New York Times to make a round trip from New York to Philadelphia within twenty-four hours. Glenn II. Curtlss, tho ttrst man in this country to make long distance calls In a flying machine, said ho considered Hamil ton's achievement the greatest In the history of aviation, unsurpassed In that Hamilton struck out u courso for himself, without land buoys to guide htm, without u charted route to help him, and accomplished the feat with such accuracy that he kept to tho sec nd on tho schedule he had laid out. Fow meu have received the kind of rocuptlou that Hamilton got wheu he dropped out of the clouds last even ing. Along tho Batter, the water front of lower Brooklyn, the edgo of Btaten Island and tho Jersey short) the piers and sea walls were black with people. Thousands of them had wnlted for hours, swayed by rumors that came from the Amboy swamp.
