In the case of Worth Wilson (colored, now

Sharon divorce suit, Miss Nettie Bracket, who

her forgeries Just after Sharon was arrested.
When | swore that l hid behind the bureau in
Sharon's bedroom and heard him admit that
Miss Hill was his wife, it was all false. L

Northern Dakota Crop Outlook.

Correspondence from Fargo says thaG the
recent weather has been uniformly favorable
to the advancement of the growing wheat, and
the crop outlook is improving. Three or four
gentle rains, some of them of considerable
extent, have done much to keep the growing
grain in its good condition Reports
OF wild buckwheat are still heard,
but an investigation shows that dam
ages from this plant will be localized, but
there are grave fears that it will spread and
give much trouble in the future. Barnes and
Fargo southern reports are Of the same gener-
al tenor as the above, and the opinion is ad-
vancod that prospects were never better than
at this season. Ransom county reports are es-
pecially ENCOURAGING. Wheat has sunk to 20
cents per bushel, and no advance of any mo-
ment Is looked for in the immediate future.

of value for the raw material of manu-

make the amount good Mr.. Herwig received a
dispatch from Washington to the effect that a
telo graphic description Of the man had been
sent to all parts of this country, Mexico, Can

to Mexico. AS he had been a defaulter to the
government of the United States, he can be APP

The Chicago Tribune adheres to its
pessimist views in respect to the wheat
crop. 1t insists that the yield of winter
wheat will not exceed 200, OOO, 900 bush
els, ard that of spring wheat will not
be equal to the crop of 1894, indicating
$50, 000, 900 bushels as a liberal estimate
Of the total product. The general av-
erage of estimates at present would
probably fall between the limits of $780,
