Really Loves Freddie.

There has been a good deal of gossip in New
York for tho past few days concerning Mrs.
Langtry's motives in returning to England at
this time and her expectations for the future.
A gentleman, whose business relations with
the Jersey beauty from the time OF her first ar
rival until she stepped on the gang plank Of
the Arizona last Saturday morning were of the
closest nature, said:
l have no doubt in the world that il Mrs
Iangtry were free to-day TO make her choice
she would marry ebhardt in a moment She
is desperately ia love with him and has been
for a long time. / Think know enough Of her,
too, 70 say that when il comes 10 a question OF
the heart that Mrs. IAngtry would sacrifice a
good deal TO accomplish the fulfiIlment OF
her desire She is a womanly woman
after al, and it is because she has
felt that in the outcome the world would
find that she was acting only from the purest
motives in receiving Mrs. Gebhardts atten-
tons that she has permitted them this long.
There we're some business affairs remaining
unsettled between us up to the tune OF her
departure, which compelled me TO go down 10
the steamer Saturday morning She was sur
rounded by a parcel Of reporters who were
insisting on taking up every moment she had,
and 1 was about 10 90 away in despair when
she sent word to wait for her in her stateroona,
which / did Gebhardt was present He
looked a ser her every wspt in the most ten
der and most matter-ofsfact manner. EAe,
received his attentions in the sam way
Well, now, il did not take an old fellow like
myself long to see how thu land lay. / can
tell you, Gebhardt is SAL to be a fool, but |
think the boys viii find out that he is going TO
have tine rrettiest bride in New York within a
year.

The situation in Dakota.

The condition of the wheat crop in Dakota
has not changed since the last report From
the latest reports it is learned that the damage
by the storms in the vicinity of Tower City viii
reach 10000 acres or a total of i0o, coo bushels.
This will not effect the general crop and is but
rs a drop in the bucket A special from St
Vincent says the farmers OF that section Of the
Red River valley are now prepared TO harvest
their hay, which IL a very fine crop. Wheat
aud oats are fine Crops are far in advance OF
anything that has been seen for years, lint will
not be ready to cut for three weeks vet Reports
q crops from Rolette and Cavileer counties in
Dakota are very fattering. A light frost visited
that locality Monday night and the night before,
but as yet has done no material injury, though
IN some cases it, effects we're quite visible, hut
It was not 10 severe as to injure wheat or
oats.
G. s. Barnes, president of the Northern
Pacific Elevator company, in an interview,
takes a rather conservative view OF the situa-
ton, and while sanguine as 10, the average yield,
thinks that farmers should be prepared 10 ex-
pect low prices for their product he draws
bus differences from the fact that adyices from
the wheat fields, not only Of the Northwest, but
OF the country At large, plac9 the average pros
pectire yield at an even higher aggregate
than the most sanguine have imagined II
any accident shonld happen to the fast ripen-
ing grain, an accident that would have more
than a local influence on the situation,
there might be reason to expect fair
prices; hui Mr.. Barnes does not
look for aught else than a generous yield, and
consequently bases his opinion on what il al
ready in sight In the vicinity of Fargo, he
says the crop win be fair. but out toward Bis.
marck, where last year there was a great def.
cheney, this year there viii be a Zig crop.
There IL considerable trust ia the wheat

Dakota, and smut is doing u great deal of dam

With there exceptions, the crop is doing quite
well Corn IL progressing rapidly, and will
