EAU CLAIRE, Wis, June AR
rivals from the north report that the
population of villages along the Omaha
road forty to fifty miles north of this
city were badly scared by cyclone this
afternoon about $3.50. Heavy rain was
falling in that region. The cyclone
swept across the country from the
southeast, tearing up the unoccupied
wooded country but lodging the vii
lagos, and seeming to spend its
last force few miles west
of the Omaha line. Chetek village
had the closest call. Lake Chetek lies
on the edge on the village. The cyclone
passed over the lake with lightning
speed, forming huge water spout,
which brought out the whole village in
great alarm, people swarming on lum-
Der piles and roofs of barns and houses,
as the waterspout swept over the lake,
accompanied by roaring and kissing
noise. Some observers report the fun
nel-Shaped column of water as 800 feet
high, with crook in it about two-thirds
of the way downward, looking in the
distance like gigantic leg sticking out
OF the clouds, with the foot trailing
through the water.

CONDITION OF THE CROPS.
The Nations Experts Size Up the
Situation.

Situation.
WASHINGTON, June 9.-The follow
ing is the crop report issued by the de-
partment of agriculture:
"There was some reductio n in seed
ing the winter wheat area in some
states, though the average breadth of
all was but slightly reduced. In the
East and South there was no material
loss of area from freezing, but in sew
eral Western states it was considerable.
The apparent reduction of breadth of
winter wheat, as compared with that of
last year, is about one and three-fourths
millions of acres. The percentage of
reduction for the entire winter wheat
region is placed at 7.2 per cent. 1t Is in
Illinois, IA in Ohio, 10 in Michigan and
9 IN Indiana. This is in comparison with
the reduced area harvested last year.
There has been an increase of area of
spring wheat in Dakota and in the ter
ritories further west, but a decrease in
Iowa, Wisconsin and Minnesota, MAX
ing an average decrease for the spring
wheat region of l per cent. The area
in wheat is apparently slightly below
So ,OOO, 600 acres. There is slight local
change of condition of winter wheat,
some improvement in New York and
Pennsylvania and marked decline in
Missouri, and minor changes of status
elsewhere, making the acreage 1873
against 49, in May. The loss by over
flow of the Mississippi in Illinois offsets
in part improvement in other counties.
In Ohio, Indiana, Michigan and Kansas
the average condition is nearly the same
as in May. The acreage of barley is
nearly the same as last year. New
York and Wisconsin are credited with
an increase of l per cent, Minnesota
with 2, Dakota with 10. Iowa, Missouri
and California report a small reduc-
ton.
Condition of barley averages ss.s. 1t
is only so in California. The area in
rye is practically the same as last year.
Condition, 1873.
The area of cotton appears to have in
creased in every state except Florida.
The increment is largest west of the
Mississippi, as usual. The preliminary
survey of acreage makes the increase
% per cent, and brings the aggregate
breadth close to 100000. The state
averages are: Virginia, los; North Caro-
lima, 1905; South Carolina, 101.5;
Georgia, 101; Florida, SO; Alabama,
1O1.5; Mississippi, 101.7; Louisiana, 102;
Texas, 1O5; Arkansas, 102; Tennessee,
los. There has been an excess of rain
in the Atlantic cotton belt, with low
nlgnC temperature, ana III some QlSCrlcGS
in Texas complaint of too much rain is
made. On the eastern gulf coast the
temperature has been nearly normal a
part of the time. West of the Missis-
sippi, cool and moist weather has re-
tarded the growth of the crop. The
averages of condition are Virginia, "a;

1t was waterspout in Chetek lake. The
column of water was from twelve to
fifteen feet in diameter. The water
could be plainly seen ascending in a
spiral column to heavy mass of clouds
about fifty rods above the lake. With
the aid of glass small fish could be
seen winding their way upwards. After
a little over quarter of an hour the
column broke in two in the middle, and
the lower half swept across Menomonie
Point in the form of a whirlwind, taking
up all the lighter matter in its course,
while the upper portion seemed to fol-
low in the same course, having the exact
appearance of an inverted funnel forty
to fifty rods long. After breaking it
was followed by great rain, followed
with some thunder and lightning. The
strange sight created much alarm in the
sleepy little town.
