100, 1000 SETTLERS ENTERED KANSAS
IN 1859.

IL will hardly be credited ut first,
though the fact we think, is we'll attest
ed, that nearly one hundred thousand
settlers entered Kansas last year. At
this prodigious rate of increase, the
current census will surprise, by its re-
suits, even the people of the States, who
arc familiar with its growth.
Its fertility is the great strength of
Kansas, and the main incentive TO emf
grafton thither. 1t has been well said
that the ''best advertisement the State
ever had is the agricultural Bureaus
crop statistics for last gear. Our read
ers will recall that, in the Governments
list of the corn crop raised by various
States, that of Kansas averaged the re-
markable yield of fOrty-eight bushels
to the acre, being greatly beyond that
of any other State. Illinois, for exam
pie, always and justly regarded as
exceedingly fertile, yielded but twenty
two bushels per acre. So with wheat )
the statistics already referred to show
that Kansas stood at the head of the
list last year, her yield averaging, we
think, eighteen bushels and five pounds,
though here the superiority was not so
remarkable as in corn, the crop averag-
ing but five pounds more to the acre
than the next highest State. In fruit,
j also-or, rather, in apples and pears
Kansas with one bound has come to the
front. We noted last autumn how at
the National Pathological Fair in Penn
sylvania, the prize for the best fruits of
the sorts just mentioned was awarded
to Kansas. ~ -. s-.
It is such exhibits in official statistics
of capacity for grain and fruits-the act
ual food for INSTRUMENTATION attract
to Kansas the vast emigration we have
noticed. Beyond lies Colorado strug-
Cling with slow growth, partly because
It's claims have rested hitherto on ITS pro-
digious mineral resources. Projects of
Mining attract the shiftless, restless and
adventurous but steady State-founding
citizens go to the soil that is rich in
grain rather than gold. 1t was proved
in California, which never grew SO sol,
idly and strongly as when 1t was fonnd
ont that her true wealth was in her gold
an harvests.-N. y. Times.

A Terrible Thunder Storm on Staten Island
sound-Barns and Houses Fired-One Man
Killed.
The tremendous thunder storm Of Saturday
night last very destructive TO life and property
on the New Jersey shore and that OF Staten Island
the Sound. The storm was brief but Of great
nerceness, the lightning being EXTREMITY vivid and
continuous while the sharp believing Of the thunder
filled the air with its reverberations, shaking win
dows causing houses to tremble to their very Pounds
tons and carrying fear and CONSERVATION TO every
nreside. Such conflict OF the elements has never
been experienced By the quiet dwellers upon the
staten Island Sound.
The damage done by the lightning was very serious
The house OF Mrs Shotwell at Stone Landing was
struck by bolt Of FIRE that knocked smithereens
out the roof and set fire TO the upper story. For
tunately, beyond disagreeable shock TO their
nerves. none OF the occupants were injured. Snort
ly otter the rain had ceased falling and the storm
clouds had passed Of, the nre developed itself and
was soon discovered on the roof Soon thereafter
the neghbors arrived and exiting the confagra
non alter 1t had damaged the property several hun
dred dollars.
Al Upderhins place, near Rossville. the lightning
struck large barn, instantly killing valuable
blood horse and prize Alderney bull, and setting
the other. The barn WA completely DESTROYED,
with loes OF many thousand dollars to Mr.. Under
hill. A msn near BY was killed about the same
time. Many treee and houses were also struck, but
NO further serious damage wss done, so far ss IA
now known.
