REPOKT FItOM THIS AGENTS
Burlington Officials Send Oat August Is
sue of the Corn Jielt.
The August issue of the Corn Belt
deals exhaustively with the condition
of crops on tho Burlington system west
of the Missouri river. Information
gathered from more than six hundred
agents indicates that saving rains in
July averted what at one time ap
peared to be an inevitable failure of
the corn crop. Tho report says:
"In Nebraska there was damage by
drought of some importance to the
early planted corn, but it was confined
chiefly to the western part of the state.
But even where the damage has been
greatest the late corn, as a rule, has
been put in fair shape by the July
rains, and will come out very well with
average weather for tho next few
weeks.
"That part of tho state growing the
greater proportion of the corn crop is
in fine shape and will produce more
than an average crop if weather con
ditions in August are average.
"Small grain generally has done
well, wheat so far as threshing tias
gone, showing a better yield than had
been anticipated earlier in the eeasou.
"There are individual reports from
fifty-nine counties in Nebraska. One
hundred and sixty-nine reports say the
corn prospect is good to excellent;
sixty-five say it is medium; forty-two
say that it is poor. The majority agree
that it is later than last year. One
hundred and seven reports say the
prospect is better than it was at the
same time in 1890; 130 say not so good;
fifty-eight s Ay there Is little difference.
"As to the present outlook of the
corn, 159 reports say good to excellent;
eighty call it medium; twenty-seven
say It is poor. The average of all the
estimates of yield of wheat per acre
gives eighteen bushels. As to the
quality of the wheat, twenty-seven say
excellent; 172 say it is good; thirty-
seven say medium; sixteen call it poor,
Twenty-six reports hs.ve it that the
quality of oats is good; eighty-four call
it medium; fifty-nine say it is poor.
The average of all reports received
makes a yield of twenty-three bushels
to the acre.
"Spring wheat Quality: Eighty
nine reports say the quality Is good to
excellent; forty-seven say it is medium;
thirty call it poor. Yield: The av
erage of all reports received makes a
yield of twelve bushels to the acre.
"Rye Quality: Ninety-six Bay it is
"good; twenty-eight call it medium;
seven say it is poor. Yield: The av
erage of all estimates of yield gives
eighteen bushels to the acre.
"Alfalfa All reports upon this crop
are favorable but two. The average
estimated yield Is two ' tons to the
acre."

The Council Bluffs corrcsiondent of
the Omaha Bee says: "Charles Kearus,
a horsetradur living at 131 Glen
avenue, is lying at his home with a
broken jrtw and a deep gash in his face
as the rasultof a horse trade yesterday
afternoon. The injuries were inflicted
by Maney Graham, another member of
the horsetrading fraternity, whose
home is at 215 Franklin avenue. Gra
ham backed up his side of the argu
ment with an ax and after he had laid
Kearns out skipped town before the
police could lay their hands on him.
It was said he boarded a Burlington
train for Plattsmouth aud the author
ities there were at once notifi-d to ar
rest him if he showed up.
"Kearns had three horses which he
wished to trade with Graham and the
two met at the rear of tho Pierce
street school, where the animals were
picketed. They got into an argument
over the animals and eome hard words
ensued. Graham was carrying an ax
and a witness to the affray said that
he Btruck Kearns with it as the latter
was aiming a blow at him with his fist.
The sharp edge of the ax struck
Kearns on the right cheek, laying -it
open to the bone, loosening all his
teeth on that side of h.!s head and
fracturing his jawbone. Fearing he
had killed Kearns, Graham at once
took to his heels and when last seen
was making for the railroad yards on
South Mtin streot."

But thus, far the opposition to his
honor has not assumed enough im
portance to suggest his possible suc
cessor, and then the change in the
name of the place, adopted by the
council and approved by the mayor at
its last meeting is coming in for its
share of criticism. It is claimed that
a matter of such importance should
only bo acted upon through a petition
from the people. So far as known the
only prominent citizen reported as
favoring the change isj Charles Boe
decker, of the State bank. The coun
cilmen are all squirming about it, it is
said, and are inclined to evade all

change, and so far the author is not
