KANSAS AND MISSOURI CROPS.

CHICAGO, August lj.==An intelligent
gentleman connected with the Kansas
City press, who has obtained official and
other information relative to the corn and
wheat crops in Kansas and Missouri, was
in the city to-day, and said the last in
formation obtained through the agricul-
tural department of Kansas shows that
the extraordinary weight and quality Of
the wheat grain has increased the
yield beyond former calculations. The
corn shows even better. 1t will yield
100000. Missouri shows 100000
wheat, and will lead all of the states on
corn. The most reliable estimates places
the corn crop at 230,0O0,0O0. These two
states, Kansas and Missouri, hel . to make
up the deficiency of Iowa and Missouri
in corn by supplying 44O,OOO,OOO bushels.

The coming dramatic event of the sea-
son Is the appearance Of the Mr.. Thomas
w. keene at the theater for one week,
commencing Monday next. Since his
first appearance in this city, he has PLAYED
in the largest and most central cities inthe
country, and in such characters as Ham
let Richelieu, Shylock, Richard
III. and Macbeth, he has attained a
degree Of popularity such as few men now
before the footlights have attained; and
the critical estimate Of his ability has
placed him above, in most of the parts.
his riyalsin America. He is an actor with
the originality Of Henry Irving, and his
force, ylgor and magnetism is hkened by
his judges to that of Edmund keene.
This Is high praise, indeed, but when it is
considered how he has drawn the people
70 witness his performances wherever he
has appeared, and, how he took hold on
our citlzenl two years ago, il must be ad-
mitted THAI there appears to be truth in
the estimate keene is an actor present
ing a hne physique, a wonderfully express
slye lace, a clear resonant voice, and his
acting IS said to excel in emotionalquality,
in feeling, in magnetism, in subtlety Of ex-
ecution and in delicacy Of touch. He will
be seen here as Richard III, Richie
lieu, Shylock, Hamlet, Macbeth and
Bertuccio. His performance Of the lat
two characters have been described as
grand examples Of highly wrought dra-
matte art. keene's company is reported
TO be exceptionally fine in its general en-
semble, and it comprises several well
known people, who have much reputation
Ms Shaksperean opponents. The sale of
seats for the engagement will commence
on Friday next.
LA BELLE RUSSO.
The theater last night was well attended
and the audience was well pleased. The
performance of LA Belle Russo is all
that can be desired, the play being of alb
sorbing interest, while the players possess
exceptional merit. Miss Jeffreys-Lewis
and her associates in the cast are all adj
mirable, and in the most powerful scenes
the audiences never fail to reward their
efforts with hearty plaudits. LA Belle
Russo will be repeated this evening, also
tomorrow night, and for the last time in
the city on Friday night.
JUBILEE BALL.
