Minnesota Crops.
ar. Paul. Oct. 6.-The State statisti-
oian in his crop report just issued states
that wheat turned out better than was
Anticipated. A nOminally shorter num-
her of shocks gathered from the field
than last year give the appearance of
less. On threshing, however, It is re-
ported that the yield is for the most
part in excess of last year. The acre
ACE in wheat reported in June was
2.7l6370, and from returns received this
month the average yield will DO four
teen and eighty-hine hundredths BUSH
els per acre. The crop will reach thir-
weight millions three hundred and five
thousand four hundred bushels; as
much M three per cent. however, was
destroyed by the storm, which reduces
the average per acre to fourteen and
forty-five hundredths per acre, or an
aggregate of thirty seven millions one
hundred and fifty-six thousand two
hundred bushels. Returns show
greater area in wheat by the statement
Of the statistician. This difference is
caused by late seedinR reported. There
arc 922, 8l3 acres in the Oat crop, gener-
ally good, although the average is not
up TO that of last year, being only tbir-
ty.eight thirty three huudredths bushels
psr acre, or an aggregate of 81, 4S6 $50
bushels. This is due to late seeding
and drought.

Horrible Tragedy.
DENVER, Oct. "Details of horrible
tragedy At Lampasas, Mexico, ON the
Mexican National Railway, have Just
bsen received. On a ranch near Lam
pasas lived q well to do Mexican, named
Antonio Voldez, whose family consisted
Of wife and five children, the eldest
being 10, and the youngest 2 years of
ago. The wife was subject to spells of
melancholy, and often exhibited marks
Of temporary insanity. At such times
she invariably sought to do violence to
the little ONES. Last Wednesday, dur
ing the absence of the husband, the wO-
man was attacked with unusual severi-
ty, during which she grabbed a hu 70
butcher-knife and at once began her
work Of destruction. The Oldest girl, a
sweet girl Of 10, first fell before the wild
mothers heavy blows. The victims
head was almost severed from her body.
With the dem0niaoal madness SO pecu-
liar to the insane, in quick succession
she slew the other children, hacking
and stabbing them in = most barbarous
and siokening manner, aud, suddenly
taking q parting look at the dead, she
plunged the knife into her own breast.
Next morning the parish priest arrived,
and amid the s0bbing and waiting of
those present the sad funeral rites were
performed.
