Personal Interest In Hen.
MoClellan feelingly related many in
stances when Mr. llarriman went out of
his way to show a personal Interest In his
humblest employes. A number of old em
ployes are practically pensioned on the
estate, he said and to relieve the sting of
charity Mr. llarriman assigns them email
taska on the roadways aad receives their
reports on the work with due seriousness
and Interest.
"If you had been here a few months ago
before Mr. llarriman went to Europe," said
Mr. MoClellan, "you might have seen him
arm In arm with two of these old fellows,
both over seventy, walking down the road
to the station; giving them serious Instruc
tions and encouraging them, although they
do practically nothing but roam about the
state enjoying the scenery."
MoClellan said he sent a photograph of
these two gray haired workmen to Mr.
llarriman while ho waa abroad, knowing
It would please him. Other pictures taken
about the farm, he said Were forwarded
to Mr. Hariiman at the lattera request.
Bun baths are an Important part of the
treatment prescribed by Mr. Harrlman'a
physician. There' was no atmosphere of
excitement about the house or the estate
yesterday. . Mr. llarriman, they say, "walks
about the house without support Reports
that he rambles about the grounds are not
confirmed; but it' ,l certain ie talks with
the men tu charge of the operations of his
estate. ..
The most satisfactory rirst-hsnd report
on Mr. Harriipao's condition coming from
anyone outsiue Die household has been ob
tained front Rev. J, H. McOuinua, rector
of the Episcopal church at Chester, who
pent more than an hour, with Mr.- Harii
man yesterday. ; . ,
"When I drovo over to- Mr. Harrlman'a

Mr. MoOulnui absolutely refused to tell

sible pending operation.
Operation Not Necessary.
CLEVELAND, Aug. 28. According to a
private tolgram from an authentic aource,
Dr. George W. Crlle, the specialist, and
other physicians and surgeons, yesterday
made an examination of E. H. llarriman
and decided no operation was necessary.
Dr. Crlle also la quoted as saying that
Mr, Harrlman'a condition Is not serious
and that an operation would not hasten nor
give added assurance of his ultimate re
covery. The nature of the Illness is not
mentioned.

1 Cnrtlsa Decides UnlcUy.
Curtiss came to tils decision to make a
trial suddenly. At 10:11 a. m.. surrounded
by a group of enthusiastic Americans, In
cluding Cortlandt F. Bishop, president of
the American Aero club, Commander F. L.
Chuptn, the American naval attache at
Paris, and T. Bentley Mott, the military
attache, the machine was run out on the

ihan to change his coat for a leather Jacket.
With no traoe of excitement he climbed
Into the seat and gave the order to start
the propellers. Running along the ground
a short distance for a Dying start the ma
chine lifted lightly and circled between the
timekeepers and the tribunes. Then mount

Clipping the corners closely Curtlss con
tinued at a uniform height until he had
passed the last pylon. He then descended
sharply, to set the benefit of gravity, and
crossed the finish Una less than a dozen
feet above the ground. A few seconds
afterword the white ball was hoisted, in
dicating, that a record had baan Lrnt.n
and the Americans broke out Into wild
entering. The aeroplane was towed baok
behind the line and Curtlss was showered
with congratulations. He replied modestly
that this speed was only what ha antici

Rain Over State
Breaks Dry Spell
and Helps Corn
Showers Are General in Eastern and
Southern Nebraska, Giving
Belief from Heat.
LINCOLN, Aug. 27 The three weeks'
heat and drouth In southern and eastern
Nebraska was broken Friday night and
early this morning by general 'showers, fol
lowing a day of burning hot winds and high
temperatures. Today Is cloudy and cool.
The change Is expected to save part of the
corn crop, which had been Seriously dam
aged. Rainfall Is reported by the weather
bureau this morning throughout the state.
BEATRICE, Neb., Aug. 28. (Special Tele
gram.) The long continued dry spell was
broken here early this morning by a tight
shower, which cooled off the air, but it is
feared comes too late to save the corn
crop, which, it Is estimated. Is damaged
60 per cent. The rain was hardly enough
to lay the dust.
NEBRASKA CITT, Neb., Aug. 28. (Spe
cial.) Hot winds prevailed In this vicinity
Friday and did considerable damage to all
vegetation. The farmera estimate that the
com crop Is Injured more than 60 per cent.
Because of the continued dry and hot
weather the canning company will not b
able to put up more than two-thirds of its
usual pack. The oorn and tomato crop Is
already ahort and each day of hot weather
without any moisture Is firing the corn and
drying up the tomato vines.
LDuAR, Neb., Aug. . (Special.) This
section of Nebraska has been suffering
from a long and blighting drouth. The
first rain for nearly four weeks fell last
night, and though not exceeding half an
Inch, the ground is fairly well moistened
and rain Is still gently falling this morn
ing. Corn, grass and alfalfa are badly
dried up, but It Is hoped that the rain will
prove of material benefit.
SUTTON, Neb., Aug. 2S. (Special.) A
copious rainstorm visited this region last
night and this morning, which has fresh
ened up pastures and meadow lands, and
apparently ended the Intense heat of many
weeks. It will greatly benefit late corn
Yields and check further injury to the corn
crop.
GENEVA, Neb., Aug. S. (Special.) After
twenty-eight days of extremely hot and
dry weather, the spell broke last night
and about thirty-hundredths of an Inch
of rain fell, and It Is still raining this
morning. The hottest was 101 In the
shade.
