Thirty eight farmers of this section
Of the country, whom we have inter
viewed on the subject, say that within
their reeoIeotons the soil and crops
have not been in such good condition
at this time Of the year as they are this
year. There can be no obstacle TO a
full yield of small grain except a total
lack of rainfall which, while it may be
possible. is not probable. The rain and
snow Of this week are Of inestimable
value to the farmers.-ObeFlin Eye.

The Rlotoa. Deputies of France.

1 have seen lively sessions in Albany
and Washington, but never anything
that approached the riot at the chamber
Of deputies at Paris on the day that Bou-
LANCER made his speech. The instant he
rose he was greeted with boots. sneers,
cheers, gibes, taunts, giggles, cat calls
and huzzas. The chamber looked and
sounded as though it wa inhabited by q
crew Of rabid cats. Respectable old gen.
tlemen shrieked pounded their desks and
moaned In a species Of frenzy, and q
running fire Of abusive epithets was kept
up during all the speech, and, when IL
was finished, there was a silly aiTectation
Of derisive laughter. Anybody but .
politician would have challenged half Il
dozen men before the speech was finished.
Dignity seems incompatible with legisla-
tbn. The reichstag in Berlin is almost
~ prominent an illustration Of personal
abuse and savage wrangling as the Brit.

WASHINGTON, April 2S.-Owing to
the exodus OF members Of congress and
newspaper correspondents to Philadel-
phia to participate in the ceremonies
attending the launching Of the York
town, the capital was to-day nearly de-
serted. But two senators Cullom and
Blair-put in al appearance in the SEN
ate chamber, and after a glance at the
array of empty seats. they retired to
their committee rooms to write letters.
On the house side the COM
mttee on manufactures, engaged in
investigation Of trusts, was the only
committee which was able to attend to
business, and even that had no quorum.
Not more than thirty-five members were
in attendance when the speaker called
the house to order, and of the small
army of newspaper men who usually
congregate in the press gallery not Il
cOrporal'S guard remained. Nelson,
Rice and Lind accompanied the eXcur-
sion, but other Minnesota repre-
SentativeS and senators remained
at home. Delegate Clifford was
also with the party. All of them re-
NAMED aboard the steamer Columbia in
the river to witness the launch except
Lind, who visited the great shops and
finally went Oh the deck of the Dyna-
mite cruiser with the GLOBES man,
remaining there while she was launched
and witnessing the launch of the York
town from that vantage position. The
unanimous expression of all who
awaited themselves of Secretary Whit
ney's hospitality is in praise of the
management of the affair which was
perfection even unto the minutest
details
