FROM CANVAS PRAIRIE.

"A Heavy Crop Looked for.
Judge j. S. Peck, who is postm. ster

roads are bad in places, he says, but
not SO soft as to serious Y delay travel
this is, however, the first team that
has come through since the roads be-
gan breaking.
There is very little snow out that
way, and what there is is only in the
ravines, where it drfted to the highth
of several feet. The lettuce, turnips,
onions, etc, are growing nicely, and
the ranchcrs look for an unusually
heavy crop, produced without irriga-
ton, Judge Peck says that the snow.
fall does not bother the old settlers
that, in fact, they rather like it, be-
cause it saves them the trouble and
expense of extensive irrigation.
The roads will probably be dry in
about a week, Judge Peek says, and
then the newcomers can 60 and take
up lard.

TIE DEAD WE'RE NOT DEvoURrD.
Mr. Patterson Says the Charge of CannibaI-
ism Against Gree1y's Party Is Untrue.

MIR. Patterson Says the Charge of Cannibal-
ism Against Greely's Party Is Untrue.
Washington Special to Chicago News.
Mr.. James Patterson, of the Bureau Of Equip
ment of the Navy Department, accompanied the
Greedy relief expedition on the Thetis as far as
st. Johns as the civil representative of the de-
partment. Concerning the alleged cannibalism
of the Greedy party, he said to the Daily News
correspondent, to-day, that there was no truth
whatever in the report 1t was cruel Islander,
which he attributed wholly to morbid desire
for newspaper sensation, but which would neces-
sarily be very painful to Lieut.. Greedy and his
comrades The rumor led to the inference
either that the caskets said to contain
the dead we're filed with DUN
mics or that Greelys party had
Sergt Rice, and the two others who persisted and
were inferred in the ice fort, from which their
bodies were subsequently washed away. The,
fact was, the Sehley- Emory relief expedition was
accompanied by Mr.. G. III. Harlow, of Washing
ton, an accomplished Photographic artist gradu-
ated from the National Museum, who took the
photographs of both the dead and survivors Of
the Greedy party, and these pictures were in the
possession of the Navy Department Every pre-
caution had been taken. scientifically and other
wise, to have the relief expedition properly
equipped, to the end that perfect record
of all persons, events, and circumstances
should be preserved as matters of his
tory and for this reason Mr.. Harlow was
specially employed The caskets contained the
bodies Of the dead, as shown by the photographs
OF which Mr. Patterson possessed copies. AS to
Dr. Pavy, Sergeant Rice, and the other two who
died, they were inferred in the ice fort and
their remains washed away by the rising waters
at the time when Greedy and the survivors were
supplied with food Cannibalism, in that re-
gard, was unnecessary. The period of suffering
for food came afterward and the photographs Of
the dead show that their remains were intact
.'Of course" concluded Patterson, such things
have happened and, therefore, the report might
have received credence but in this case theTA.is
clean record, showing that, terrible as was the
condition of the Greedy party, they had not been
driven to deyour their dead comrades. ",s-

John E. Lamb as a Singer.

Philadelphia Press,
We observe with considerable qualification
that the Democrats of the Eighth Indiana dis
trict have renominated Major John E. Lamb
for Congress, Major Lamb is not merely an ac-
ceptable representative, but he is, besides one
of the sweetest singers ever heard in Washing
ton. 1t is related of him that one day during
the recent session, while sitting in committee
room, he began to MARBLE one of the solos from
"Lohengrin.n The soft, sensuous cadences of
the singers voice penetrated the chamber of the
House, and all the discord of the wrangling par
tisans faded into quietness The ear of the
great body drank in the luscious melody as if
it were some tropic nectar, aud there
was a long and almost painful silence
until William S. Holman arose and,
in voice full of emotion, addressed the chair
''Mr Speaker in the presence of human agony
we can we'll afford to cease for while from the
busy occupations which customarily engage US
and turn for moment to sympathize with the
woe of our fellow.man 1t is with this generous
impulse inspiring my heart that now ask unan-
imous consent to suspend the rules and pass
resolution instructing the sergeant-at arms of
this House to provide a carriage and convey my,
stricken colleague, whose suiferings in yonder
room are patent to us all. to his residence That
same evening, when Lamb explained to his col
league that he was merely running over solo
which he had promised to sing at a Methodist
mite-society meeting, Holman said HWell, John
Lamb, if you call that singing, Heaven spare
me from being near you when you've got the
stomach ache

How Our Unsophisticated Mr.. Hendricks Was
Inveigled in New York.
New York Tribune.
AS Tribune reporter was rolling thoughtfully
and drowsily up Broadway in stage yesterday
afternoon, his attention was attracted by a large
straw hat on the head of a small man seated by
the side of the driver on top of coupe. The
man was evidently in state of high nervous ex-
element The coupe was at the moment in the
act of drawing up TO the sidewalk. In a twink
ling the man wearing the straw hat with the
agility of circus clown in the act of turning
somersault, bounded from the box and stood
upon the sidewalk. The reporter glanced at the
interior Of the coupe, where he saw the venerable
tail of the old ticket coiled up in bunch in
one corner Of the vehicle The man in the straw
hat opened the door, when neat little old lady
hoped out shook the wrinkles from her skirts

and then boldly and quickly disappeared in the
