A DECREASED HOP YIELD.
The Crop In New York State Showing n
 Large Shortage From Last Year.

A dispatch from Utica, N. T., says: Hop-picking has been going on for some time, and inquiry of Oneida County growers. confirm sthe forecasts of a short crop. The hops are little incumbered by leaves, are nearly seedless, are quite free from vermin, and riper than at Inst years picking, which makes them weigh less than usual. One grower, who makes practice of weighing few sacks each year for comparison, gets 34 to 36 pounds per sack, against 50 to 52 pounds last year. The best yards in the district are in the town of Marshall. There Bennett X Son think their l30 acres will yield as much as they got from 120 acres last year. P. Ryan gets 1,0S0 pounds from his yard, which yielded ], ,880 pounds last year. Charles Terry gets 900 per acre where he got 1, 200 last year. Tracy W. Conger has picked 20 of his 80 acres, and reports a shortage of 30 per cent Sylvester Gridley gets less than 500 pounds per acre, against l, 200 year ago. He says there is no moisture in view, and hops are shrinking every day and drop from the vine when the pole is shaken.
 This is the experience of many grow CTS. H. J. Coggeshall's yard of IS acres yields 57 boxes; last year 92. East of the Sangerfeld's swamp the decrease is greater. Frederick Larry gets from 4 acres 153 boxes; last year he had 256. A two-acre new lot which promised we'll in the spring yields only 30 boxes. c. Smith gets 175 boxes, againsta a previous yield of 400. M. J. West harvests about 1000 pounds where year ago he got 5000. M. l.. Conger experiences a shrinkage of 50 per cent. West of the swamp and in North Brookfield similar condition of affairs is found. The short age of Humphreys, which is the variety mostly reported on, is proving to aver age but one-third, and growers say the late varieties will be no better. Very little rust is encountered, which, with freedom from leaves, seeds, and vermin, assures an excellent quality, if small quantity. The pickers are going over the ground rapidly, and with good weather the season will be short. A few sales of Humphreys have been made at % cents.

Long Search for a ParsOn.

Jacob Krey came to this country three years ago and settled in Iowa, where he did well. A year ago he re- turned to Germany, met Caterina Sentie, and fell in love with her, and she with him. One day they called on parson, but he was too sick to marry them. They called on another parson, but he was attending a funeral. The time set for their departure for America arrived without their finding, on any occasion, all the requisites for Q wedding. They decided to stop at Hamburg for the pur- pose of getting married, but when they reached that city they had no time to lose, so they were forced on board the Bohemia, still unmarried. On their ar rival at Castle Garden they found that the train for the West was about to start, and they decided to again postpone the marriage. They mentioned their difficulty to Inspector Hurlich. The Rev. Mir. Ebbert was sent for and the marriage came off in time for the bridal couple to catch the train.

A Rhnrt Hnn Grnn.

Reports from 200 hop-Prowing towns in New York, Maine, and the Province of Quebec indi- cate that the crop is at least one-fourth short of the average, but this is believed to be an underestimate. The averages for each State are as follows: Maine, IS; Vermont, 80; Que bee, TO- and New York, TO- Buyers have been Prospecting here and there, offering 25 to 30 cents a pound The growers, however, are generally confident of higher prices and are disposed to hold for 35 to 50 cents. Especially is this the case in New York, where 40, and even 50 cents have been offered in few in stances for new hops, and where the growers are well posted. Old hops are pretty much out of the growers hands, only an occasional small lot being reported in New York The new crop is of extraordinarily fine quality, lice, except in Stanstead county, Province of Que bee.

CIVIL WAR IN PERU.
Gen. CRceres and His Troops Enter Lima
 and FIkht for Six Hours.

In Lima on Thursday there was storm of bullets for over six hours. Caceres entered the city with rabble, who yelled and fired in the greatest disorder. The night before all the Government troops were withdrawn into the cuartel and the palace, and the entry of Csceres, although not unexpected, was some- what of surprise. His men captured the cuartel and the churches of Merced and San Augustin, from which they kept up fusil- Jade. They also attacked the Guadaloupe sta tion. About 150 persons were killed in Mercaderes and Bodegones streets, near the palace square, where the fire was hottest. Finally the Government troops made sortie and drove out the mob. Caceres was accom- panied by about ninety horsemen. They ap- peared to have been trayelng all night, and were not in condition to fight with troops we'll fed and fresh from their beds. Three hundred prisoners were taken. Caceres escaped. The German proprietor of 8 cigar store was killed while looking from balcony,
 All the telegraph wires were cut for miles out of the city, and no trains ran. Nothing occuI red at Chorilos.

 "MR. CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE In receiving this formal notice of my nomination for the highest office within the gift of the people by the National Conyen- tion of the Prohibition party permit me, not withstanding the distinction was neither sought nor desired by me, to assure you, in view of the unanimity with which it was very great honor it confers. There are more political parties in the field to-day than there are political issues. Upon the great question as to what should be done with the traffic in intoxicating liquors as bever- age both the Democratic and Republican parties are united in favor of making the traffic permanent, while the Prohibitionists demand that it shall be placed under the condemnation of the laws of the land. Thus an issue is clearly made, and I think it safe to say the only one to-day that really reaches the hearts and consciences of the citi- zens. Upon this issue we go to the people, the source of all political power. Let us appeal to reason rather than to prejudice. Let those resort to personal abuse and scandal who have nothing better to up- hold their cause. The Prohibition party was not organized as & mere threat or menace. It is the outgrowth of rapidly increasing crystalized sentiment against the great evil of the age-an evil that the old parties dared not attack, but against which this young party of the people, in defence of the homes of the nation has entered upon 8 warfare that shall never cease 80 long as the flag of our country waves it's protecting folds over legalized dram shops.
 "In the struggle let us ever remember that we are accountable to God; that our duty to Him is paramount to our allegiance to any po- litical party; thatpohtcal ties will never in His sight excuse a ballot for any party that does mt stand mn fnarlaaav for the riuht Tha home will have nothing to fear if the people vote as they pray"

Constitution or Montana.

The Helena Herald has this to say
about the forthcoming publication of the
constitution of Montana. We understand
that the committee of the late Constitu.
tional Convention charged with the
preparation of an accompanying address
has after many delays discharged its duty
and everything is now ready for the
press. IL justice to the members of the
committee it is to be said that Mr.. Hunt
was called east by the death of his father
and prevented from participating at all
in the duty assigned. The other men,
bers were Messrs. Toole and Galloway,
who have been a great share of the time
away from home in attendance at court
since the convention adjourned. The
work was practically devolved upon Mr..
Toole, and we doubt not he has discharg-
ed his duty well. The people are anxious
to see this instrument on which they are
to vote next November. The general
frame and features of this constitution
will not require the consideration pro-
voked by the first appearance ofthe Fed
eral constitution in the days of Hamilton
and Madison, but there are special points
covered by the constitution that cannot
ape criticism. We hope there will be
no unnecessary delav in giving our peo-
pie an issue that will concern them more
than the Presidency.
