of flax and oats this year. The llax Is re

of corn Is about one-tenth less than last vour.
This year the ncreago ntntids Ilrst , corn ; second
end , winter wheat ; third , oats , with a small
ncrcngo of barley and ilax. All crops are
now in line condition. The most of the corn
Is clean and growing rapidly. Winter ' . /heat

unless the rains should cease at once there

The yield will bo largo If it ean bo properly
gathered. The same Is true of oats and baf-

Holds of snow and lei , says Frederic
Kunston in St. Nicholas. Tills range ,
cut up by gorges and chasms thousands
of feet in depth , which reach into it from
Ilio valleys on both sides , presents views
of rugged grandeur excelled by none in
the Rocky Mountain region. Many have

famed glories of the Alps and Caucasus.

A Rrot Harto story from Heal Life.
It was n tendor-hearteJ American
who saved the murdered Severn Ols-
noros from burial In n pauper's grave.
When ho visited the undertaker's where
lay the bodies of murderer nnd murdered
ho was pnrcoptibly under the inlluonco
of liquor.
'Say , parti , " said he to Carl Sohussol ,
"that gal died afore bho wanted to ,
didn't she ? "
"Yes , sir. "
"And that feller there murdered
horV "
"So It Is said. "
"And yo'r giving him a big burial ? "
"Ills frlondb are. "
"Yo'r say the gal's got to go to the
potter's Hold ? "
"I am afraid eo. "
"Whore's her mother ? "
"She has none. "
"But she had ono onc't , and she's got
to have a square deal and bo burled
right. Hero's ' $20 to got her somothln'
to wear what's lit to bo planted In.
Hero's $20 to got a better collln with ,
and hero's $10 for a broken wheel of

'Frisco gives tlio murderer a bigger

A Haunted Gr.ivo.
Along the shoios of Onolda lake , says
tlio Onolda ( N. Y. ) Mall , there is an
Indian's grave where , at times , a weird
and supernatural light makes its ap
pearance.
It is described ns n ball of flro about
the si/o of a largo orange , and sways to
and fro In the air about twenty feet
from the ground , confining its irregular
movements within a space about 100 f et
square.
I'eomo have attempted to go near
enough to solve the mystery , but It
would suddenly disappear before they
could i each It.
A very peculiar story b told by the
neighbors near the spot , They claim
that many years ago the locality was a
p i ft of an Indian reservation.
A man by tlio name ot liolknnp fre
quently dreamed that there was a crack
in thu Indian cemetery containing im-
munse treasures , and thnt If lie was
there at the hour when gravova-ds
yawned ho could secure it. These
dreams were ropeuU-d so often that they
had a btrong olfeet , and lie wont there
with nick and shovel , ( iccordlng to In
structions , but ho failed to turn around
throe times when hu found the crock , as
the dream directed. Ho stooped to
pick It up , but was btunnod by a flash of
lightning nnd thu crock disappeared.
Since that tlmo the spot has been
haunted by u mysterious light.

durk-ojed woman of leas thin
thirty ; ho u portly , well-
diubsud mm of loss than forty.
They woi o bride and proem , on their
wuy to Portland to Hpctul the hunoy-
moon. Twice before she hud buon mar
ried ; ouco bofoio ho liuu oallod her wife.
Thulrs ibii Htraugo story. Ton years
ngo they wore wed , but this is their flrut
honeymoon. Both \\otoborn and raised
in Now Yortt city. Ton unrs ago on
bo.ird a dunclng b.irgo in Now York har
bor they met for the Ilr t time. It wns
a picnic. Young Cumin WIIH gay with
youthfulncss and wine.
"I want a wife , " ho taid after the
dance.
"And I want freedom fiom stern par
ents , " said she. "IIo\\ better to secuto
it than by taking u husband ? I'll a
well "
"Come , don't hesitate ; horo's n man
who will splicotu. " And spliced they
wore then and there , both looking upon
the matter as a hugo joke. The
maiden's father , who had boon anchored
in the wino room bofoio , came into
the ca-bin just as the ceremony was coi.-
cludod. John Murray for that was his
name was dumloundod , for ho recog-
ni/ed in the half-tipsy individual who
had unthinkingly tied the knot an old
political lionchman , a man fully quali
fied to oillciate. It was a legal marriage ,
An upi oar , a light ensued. Rut broken
noses and torn garmeuts do not annul
marriages. The divorce court did , however -
over , and that \or.v shortly , the criminal
lawyer , Charles Spencer , being em
ployed by the Irate father.
Ten years later the bride of n , moment
found herself a widow in San Francisco ,
with two children and an aged father to
eato for. For a while tlioy lived on
Tohama street , then they moved to
Br.innan stieot , ne.iij Seventh. For two
years they had been on the golden
coa * . , but their llfo was anything but
golden , for povertv had found John
Murray in his old ago. Ilor name was
Mis. Murray Uribcoll , und she signed it
in full to the little note she wrote to the
agent of a certain building hero , asking
that she might bo appointed jnniticss.
The same portly , well diebsed man
that accompanied her to Portland yes
terday called on her the next day. The
little widow colored with pleaburo ;
buroly she should have the place now.
"You are u widow , I believe , Mrs.
Driscoll ? " was the lirst business quos-
on. '
"My husbana died throe yours ago. '
"You are from Nc v York ? "
"Yes , sir. Wo , kuow bettor times
there , sir. "
' \Vero you over married before ? "
"Why , no yes that ih why , > ou see
" and she hesitated as the recollection
of her girlish prank came baco to hor.
Then gathering courage :
' You see , it was only a joke , sir. I
was married once before to a young man
named Morris Cut-ran , but "
"I am that young scapegrace's older
self"said the agentand then there was
a feccmo. Their courtship was brief , und
now they are oil on their honeymoon.

A Profitable Trick.
There are tricks in all trades but ours ,
says the Detroit Free Press. Hero is a
trick that is played every day during
the season pn Americans in London. It
nearly always works , simple as it is. A
gentleman from Rochester , N. Y. , who
is well known in that city , bought a pair
of gloves on Oxford street the other day ,
gave the man a sovereign , and took as
Americans very generally do his
change without counting it , shoveling it
off the counter into his pockets Ho
was walking down Oxford street when a
breathless person overtook him and
tapped him on the shoulder.
"I beg you pardon , sir , but I'm very
sorry wo gave you a shilling too much
change. "
"Did you ? " said the Americanpulling
out a handful of change from his pocket
and lookincr at It hopelessly.
"Yes , fair , I'm very sorry sir , but you
see , sir , it will bo taken out of my wages
and I don't got any too much. Wo don't
in this country , sir. Won't ' you comeback
back , sir , and I'll explain how it hap
pened ? "
"Oh , It's .ill right , " said the Rochester
man , and ho hatfdcd the follow a shil
ling."Would
"Would you like to go back and see if
it's all right ? " said the salesman.
"Oh , not nt all. "
"I am very much obliged to you , sir , "
said the cleric , bringing his forefinger
up to his bare head.
That shilling and many others like It
went Into the clerk's pocket.
Do Witt's Little Early Uisers. Host llttlo
pill over made. Cure constipation every
time. None equal. Use thorn now.
Trlokn of tlio Memory.
"Celebrated authors sometimes forgot
their own work , " baid an eminent physi
cian the other day. , This Is usually ono
of the affects of disease or old ago. As
Walter Scott grow old lie became a vic
tim to this kind of forgatfulnosiB. Fre
quently when ono of his own poems was
read to him ho would ask who was the
author. 'Ivanhoo' was dictated during
a painful illness anil published before its
author had quit hlf ) bod. When Scott
had become convViloscent ho had
no recollection of the story.
Toward the nlobo of his Ufa
Lmno found grout pleasure in rrmdinj ;
his own works. Forgetful that ho was
himself the author , Ifo would frequently
exclaim as he road : 'Beautifull1 'Mag-
nlllcont ! ' 'I wish f had written that ! '
Macaulny , the historian , had a friend
whoso memory had once boon exceeding
ly strong. Old ago made it exceedingly
weak. If anything brilliant was said or
read to him in the evening ho would
imagine the next morning that the bril
liant ideas hoard thu night before were
his own. It was his cubtom to write
them out and bliow them to lila friends
as original matter. "
