Waifs of the Storm.

New YORK, Sept. 14.-Rays of sun
shine have at last broken through
the clouds and New Workers are con-
graduating themselves that the storm
at last has fled. A feeling of uneasi-
ness in shipping circles as to the
safety of many vessels at sea during
the storm, remains as keen as
ever. There are several New York
steamers and sailing vessels over due
and as telegraphic communication
between here and number of points
still remains cut off, it isimpossible to
learn anything at present. No less
than score of storm deluged vessels
of all kinds and tonnage are reported
as having passed Sandy Hook to-
wards quarantine. They all show
evidence of having passed through a
storm. Some are short of spars and
others have their rigging and gear

Concerning jetty work he says, that
the piling for the west jetty is down

tress work nearly out. East jetty
mattress well up to the piling which
is out about 4, 200 feet. The June rise
filled the mattresses already down
with river silt so that the torredo
does not work in them at all. The
work already done has deepened the
channel for 1900 feet an average Of
S feet making 20 feet of water for that
depth. The mattress work has not
extended over the bar but the bar
has already deepened four feet. The
work will be so far done that the VIM
ter rise IN the Brazos will scour a,
clear channel across the bar of 20 feet
The work will be done so far as put
ting down mattresses by the LIST Of
February, 1890, but it will take anoth--

work.

The Material Kansas.

Kansas has other things besides its
large Republican ma !ority tor which to
be grateful. Especially is this SO 10 the
wear of our Lord 1889. It's material
worth was never better exemplified than
it has been during the last twelve months
OF it's history. MARTIN MoHLER, the Sec
rotary of the agricultural department OF
the state has submitted his report. II
not a surprising, it is at least remarka-
BILE showing OF the productive wealth OF
the state. The grand total OF the corn
product is put down at 276,541, 1873 BUSH
els. This is nearly 10O,OoO,O00 bushels
above the corn crop of last year. The
present prices for corn do not make corn
raising profitable, if it be sold. But the
Kansas farmer has better use for his
corn than to haul it to market. He feeds
it 70 his cattle and hogs.
The secretary's report shows yield OF
wheat for 1889 to be 36,5S0,995. In 1888
the. wheat product was less than one half
of this amount; but the crop now is lit
tie less than the yield of 1884, the banner
wheat year for Kansas, when the product
reached nearly 100000 bushels. The
quality of the wheat is pronounced to be
the best that has been seen in any of the
wheat markets. Topeka CAPITAL.

The Election.

The result of the state and county cleo
lions which took place in a number Of
states Tuesday, do not necessarily signi
fy anything as to the outcome OF the con
test in 1892. Still they may not be with
out their instruction to the public.
The result shows that people are be-
coming more and more competent and
willing to discriminate. They are ready
to discard one part of ticket and to save
the other part il they see fit to do SO
This shows the necessity that rests upon
Metropolitan party of putting only good
and popular men Oh the ticket. Demo.
Gratis may stick to their ticket through
evil as well as good report" But repub.
licans will not do SO. They are more in
dependent.
Take the case in Ohio. There is no
question abont the state being republi-
can by from 10000 to 10000. But Fora
ker was candidate. There is no doubt
about his gallantry, or his republicanism
but he seems to be deficient in popularity
and he was the representative Of the
fourth termism. This the people do not
favor. That has been settled. 1t was
settled, by the republicans, at least, at
Chicago when GRANT, the greatest gene
raj of the war, was presented to the con-
vention for third term and rejected.
But while the Ohio republicans let
Foraker be defeated they looked further.
They tried desperately to save and posi-
bly, did save, the United States senator.
So that all will not be lost il Senat or
PAYNE has to retire from the United
States senate. He ought to be turned
ont from that body. He has no business
there. He only represents himself. and
the Doodle loving end of his party. The
people care nothing for him-neither the
mass of the democrats nor any OF the
republicans.
Ia Virginia the result was not disap-
pointing. The democrats were success
full there because they have a majority
The republicans are always hopeful of
the state-but the election never fails to
defer their hopes.
Massachusetts maintained good re-
publican majority. This shows plainly
that the mugwump influence in the state
is nil.
In Iowa the republicans lost heavily
This is attributed largely to disafection
from the republican party by reason OF
prohibition.
The prohibition question in Kansas al
so had tendency to make democratic
gains. This is shown in the results at
Wichita and Leavenworth and Lawrence.
The crooked straws will be straighten-
ed by 1892 and again the republicans will
pass on to victory.-K. G. Globe.

Mrs. Miller here paid her respects

for some unacountable reason, which
no one could understan, fat women
insist upon crowding their arms into
tight coat sleeves. A fat woman s
arm is generally symmetrical from
the elbow to the wrist, and that
part of the sleeve may be fitted as
tightly as comfort will allow, but
the upper part of the arm is apt to
resemble ham more than anything
else. The sleeve should be left loose
or draped.
The thin woman next came in for
her share of attention.
''There is no necessity for a wom-
an to be thin. With rational food
|and proper care of herself the, thin
woman can readily develop and as
