Abundant Rains. Crops Of all Kinds were Never


Better,
Colonel c. NJ Durham and Mr. Frank
Young of this city, who have been sojourn-
ing in the southwestern portion of this
state for month past with headquarters
at Liberal, the young southwestern me-
tropolis, returned yesterday morning
These gentlemen are both enthusiastic in
their praises of that section and proclaim
with great vigor and emphasis, that they
never in all their lives saw such rains, as
on two occasions during last week favored
that portion of the state. Col. Durham in
particular grows enthusiastic, when he is
expatiating upon the superiority of their
wheat, oats, corn and grass crops. He gave
a glowing description of a 300-acre field of
corn, which he saw in 'The Natural
Stripe" Natural Strip" or mo Mans
Land all of which names apply to the
same strip of country The field is about
twelve miles south of Liberal, and is one
stretch of corn higher than mans waist
and OF such a rich green that it looks
black. He also described some beautiful
fields of wheat and says that crops IN the
southwestern corner of the state are even
more advanced than they are here Lib
eral is rapidly getting sure hold on the
trade in that portion Of this state besides
No Mans Land and the Panhandle OF
Texas, and that every day is making more
apparent the fact that it will soon be quite
city.

among tie II they separated and left the
city, throwing this inexperienced girl
uDon the charity of strangers. She was
cared for, first, by Mrs. Surg and after
wards by Mrs Newcomb; but becoming
homesick and desperate she went upon the
streets to try to obtain money enough to
pay her expenses back to Denison. Her
case was referred to Councilman Buck

her to her home, for which place she left
over the Santa Fe last evening.

Wright was accused Of stealing some cat
tie in Greene county, Missouri, and disap-
peared. a reward was offered for his
arrest and Chief of Police Tom McNa-
mara yesterday succeeded IN landing his
man in the holdover. He was found at
No. Goa East First street, where for the
past few weeks he been engaged IN a more
genteel method of making a living than
stealing cattle, although there Is as much
virtue in one as in the other. Mr.. Wright
being of musical turn of mind adver-
tised that for the modest sum OF eight
dollars Gn advance he would teach any
one to play the piano beautifully. The
instructions were printed upon long strip
of paper, and if followed implicitly enough
the magic art could be learned easily, and
at home" Several persons who met the
professor are now wiser, although poorer

THAT LEAD END.

A couple of eXpalt gentlemen went down
to Rlverdale to examine the hole on +.
kelly's farm from which the lead speci-
mems sent the EAGLE were said to have
been taken. The gentlemen found a hole
in the ordinary alluvial deposit of the val
ley and that was all. When they told Mr..
Kelly that it was impossible that any min
eral should have ever been taken from
such formation he got mad. As we sus-
pected the whole thing is humbug of
Keily's or of somebody else. In fact we
said to the gentlemen who went down that
we couldn't see how it was possible that
any mineral deposit could have occurred
on seven feet from the surface in the midst
of a valley whose average alluvial deposit
was at least Of twice that depth.
