THE COLD SNAP.
The Farmers Review Says 1t Is Responsible
For Damage to Winter Wheat.

The Farmers Review Says 1t Is Responsible
For Damage to Winter Wheat.
CHICAGO, March 6.-The FaEmers' Re-
view says: The report of our correspond
ents indicate that the present cold snap
damaged winter wheat in many counties
in Central Illinois, Indiana, Missouri,
Kansas and Michigan from 10 to 80 per
cent Wisconsin and portion of the
counties in Northern Illinois are pro-
tected at present by blanket of snow.
Very few reports of damage by winter
killing have been received from Ohio
and none from Kentucky. In the Ohio
valley, however, embracing portions
of Ohio. Indiana and Southern Illinois,
excessive rain has swelled the streams
and flooded the bottom lands, greatly
damaging wheat fields on low grounds.
With the exception of few counties in
Kansas and Central Illinois there are no
complaints of damage from Hessian fiy.
The best all-around report comes from
Kentucky, all Of our correspondents in
that State quoting the condition of
wheat as good to very good" and no
damage from any cause. The most dis
couraging reports come from Michigan.
Owing to fall droughts many fields be-
gan the winter in poor condition.
While few counties are covered with
snow many are bare, and wheat has suf-
fered greatly from the alternated freez-
ing and thawing experienced during the
past month.

A woman's Awful Death,

PARIS, Tex, March News has just
reached here Of horrible death that
occurred at Milton, eighteen miles south
east of this city, Saturday afternoon.
Mrs. Kirk Rosser, an estimab able
lady of that vicinity, was at home
with her twelve-months-old babe
and her husbands sister, about
eight years old. The lady was
sitting before the fire when seized with
vertigo and pitched forward into the
flames which set her clothing on fire.
The little girl succeeded in pulling the
woman out, but could not extinguish
the flames. Mrs. Rosser revived and,
realizing her danger, jumped
in bed AID pulled the bed
clothes around her. which Immediately
took fire. The little girl picked up the
baby and ran to the nearest house, q
quarter of a mile away, for assistance.
With great difficulty the flames were
extinguihed. but the woman was burned
so badly that the flesh dropped of the
bones and she died in a short time.

THE DEAD BANK ROBBER.

Two Mysterious Women View His Remains
and Probably Know His Antecedents.
TOPEKA, Kan, March 6.-Two women
of this city called at police headquarters
to see Chief Gardiner about the dead
bank robber. The chief was absent,
but description of the dead man was
furnished, and the women left at once
for Meriden. When they saw the dead
body one of them tainted, but said moth
ing about the identity of the dead man.
They returned to Topeka and were fol.
lowed by Count y Attorney Gephart of JEFF
ferson County, who came up on the same
train. The women got off at the North
Topeka junction depot however, and
escaped Gephart. 1t is thought they
knew something about the case. The
picture of the robber in the sheriff's
office still attracts much attention.
Depotmaster Watts, of the Rock Island.
has seen it and says that the man loafed
about the Rock Island Second street
station for several hours one day last
week. At that time he had several
packages under his arm.

LAKE SHORE WRECK.

Disastrous Wreck Causing . Number OF
Deaths-A Meager Report.
BUFFALO, N. Y, March THE Cleve-
land and Chicago express on the Lake
Shore railroad, due here from the West
at SIS last evening, and running very
fast to make up lost time, broke in two
at Bayview station, about six miles
from this city. The two sections came
together and terrible wreck resulted.
The first news of the disaster was
brought by an engine from the scene OF
the wreck, bringing one man who had
lost an arm. He was Immediately put
under the influence of ether and no par
ticulars could be learned from him. Re-
porters could not obtain transportation
from the railroad company and were
obliged to 60 to the wreck by
horse and buggy, thus greatly delaying
the news Of the accident When the
break occurred the front part of the
train, consisting of the engine, tender,
smoker and two day coaches, was quick
~ brought to standstill. The rear
half, composed Of Eve heavy Pullmans,
came on down the grade and crashed
into the second day coach. The first
Pullman being the heavier lifted the
day coach in the air and they now lie
one on top of the other and both having
telescoped the first day coach.
Both the day coach and the Pullman
was full of passengers and the loss Of
life and limbs will probably be high.
w. E. Deland, who managed to get
aboard the relief train, says the wrecked
train was behind time and was having
trouble with the brakes. At Bayview
the train came to q sudden stop and
moment later there was terrible crash.
The sleepers had become separated from
the rest of the train and had dashed
into the day coach, telescoping it COM
pletely. There were forty or fifty peo-
pie in the day coach and Mr.. Deland
says he can not see how any could have
escaped uninjured. He stepped off just
before the crash and was, so far as he
knows, the only one who escaped.
The dead number seven. as follows:
Mr.. j. E. Stewart and Mrs J. E. Stewart,
Rochester; j. Swan. sleeping car porter,
Salamanca; Mrs. J. d. Bancus, Saratoga
Springs, died of injuries; three un-
known.
The injured were about twenty.

GONE TO MEET SlLCOTT.

A Louisville Bank Teller Decamps With
$50, OOO-ToO Fond Of Wine, Women and
Gambling.
LOUISVILLE, KY, March 5.-William
H. Pope, teller of the Louisville Nation
al Bank, a trusted man of good habits,
who was received in the best social cir
cles of this city. is gone. His absence
at the bank yesterday morning at first
excited no suspicion. as it was supposed
he was at his sick sisters bedside or in
the country detained by the flood.
When no word was received at 1890
o'clock President James S. Pirtle, Vice.
President j. D. Leech and Cashier w. S.
Parker became somewhat suspicious
They opened the vault and hasty ex-
animation showed that about $4,000
was missing. The missing money was
all in large bills. All the bulky gold
and silver coin and small bills were left
intact. 1t will require a careful exam
ination to state the entire amount that
Pope took with him.
Pope is native of this State and is
thirty-eight years old. His father Wal
lace Pope, resides eight miles out on
the narrow gauge railroad. He entered
the bank in 1851 as clerk and was rap
idly promoted. He was thought to be
'close." He had been leading DR..
Jekyll and Mr.. Hyde life for some years,
as many of his boon companions are
aware. At his room he was unusually
quiet.
The only articles missing from his
room were Bible and a prayer book.
which he must have taken with him. At
q room on Jefferson street he frequently
gave wine suppers to young men of his
class and fast young women. He
gambled and was known as sucker"
He frequently was drunk at night but
he was always at his desk promptly in
the morning.

Civil Engineer Tucker Puts q Low Valua-
ton Upon the Coveted Land.
ARKANSAS CITY, Kan, March II.
B. Tucker, a civil engineer, who from
1871 to 1874 was engaged in surveying
and plating into townships and sections
the Cherokee Strip, and noting the gen.
eral topography of the country, said yes
terday that the best land in that Sec
ton was from the Arkansas river to the
Panhandle of Texas, from the Red
river to the Kansas line. There was no
one body of land of equal size in the
country as good as this for agricultural
notwithstanding at the Arkansas
river, extending west to the 9Sth mer-
idian, west from Greenwich and south
to the north line of Oklahoma
proper inclusive-about 56x75 miles
On this no comment is necessary. 1t
was rated: Twenty per cent level, first
rate; 20 per cent rolling, first and Sec
ond rate; 10 per cent. broken, third rate,
the rivers and creeks. Going farther
west between the 9Sth and Goth meridi-
an west the country was much poorer.
While there were some good quar-
ter sections they were the exceptions
rather than the rule. Here were the
salt, gypsum and red clay country.
The gypsum beds might some time in
the near future be worked with profit.
This section was rated: Thirty per cent.
level, second rate; 80 per cent. rolling,
second rate; 40 per cent broken, third
rate; poor water and little or no
timber. Between the Goth and Tooth
meridians a man might by just
looking over the country be de-
ceived, but not after living there one
summer. This section was rated: Fifty
per cent level, third rate; 40 per cent
rolling, sandy, third rate; 10 per cent
broken. third rate. At that time the en-
tire tract could not have been sold for
so cents an acre. Taking in the poor
land in the western portion Sl.25 was all
1t was worth now.

YOUNG LINCOLN DEAD.
Tho Unfortunate Youth Succumbs to His
Disease.

The Unfortunate Youth Succumbs to His
Disease.
LONDON, March 6.-Master Abraham
Lincoln, son of Mr.. Robert Lincoln, the
United States Minister, who has been
suffering for long time from blood
poisoning, arising from malignant
carbuncle on the left side below the
armpit, died at seven minutes after
eleven o'clock yesterday morning.
During the morning the lad was in a
comatose condition. He refused to re-
tain nourishment and the doctor stated
definitely that his death was only q
question of few hours He suffered no
pain. Mr.. Lincoln and his family were
at the bedside of the dying boy from
early in the morning until he died. He
passed away quietly.
The following account Of the lads ILL
ness is authoritative:
He went to Versailles to study French,
and had been there about two months
when he began to feel vaguely indis-
posed. This feeling lasted for about a
week, when, on November 6, q large
carbuncle developed in few hours on
the left side under the arm, both left
arm and hand at the same time becom-
ing greatly swollen. His parents were
sent for. and on their arrival from Lon
don, twenty-four hours later, they found
his condition as above stated, except
that the arm swelling was somewhat d.
minished. Next morning the local ply
sicians made an incision in the carbun-
Gle, and it was thereafter treated with
great care with poultices and antiseptics
until November IS, when an alarming
inflammatory and febrile condition set
in.
An operation was performed by dis
tinguished Paris physicians, and there
after the wound SO made was carefully
treated. The patient continued to take
and digest nourishment perfectly we'll,
but Notwithstanding this he began to
lose flesh, and the wound, instead Of
healing at all, became unhealthy.
Finally, it was deemed expedient to
remove the sufferer to London where he
might receive attention from the famous
surgeons of that city, and this was
accordingly done on January II.
The patient was at once placed
in charge Of DR.. Maclagan of Cad
Ogan Place, London, assisted by DR..
Jones and DR.. Thomas Smith, surgeon.
The lads trouble was not limited to the
outside of the chest wounds, but ex-
tended inward, interfering materially
with the movements Of the ribs on that
side and causing also an effusion within
the chest which effusion increased to
such an extent that on February 20 the
patient was in imminent danger of being
sutocated. BY this time the emaciation
had greatly increased. Desperate OPP
erations were resorted to by the sur
geons, but without success.

Notwithstanding this. the factions

HOPEFUL FARMERS.

For the Year Of 1890.

Ksneas Agriculture Has Good Prospects
For the Year Of 1890.
TOPEKA, Kan, March 5.-The Kansas
Farmer prints carefully prepared re-
port-the first of the season-from nearly
every county in Kansas, made up by its
special correspondents on the last day
of February, as to the condition and
acreage of growing wheat, the condition
of livestock, as well as the local market
prices of wheat, corn, oats, cattle and
hogs.
These reports show an increased acre
age in every county, ranging from to
so per cent, except in the counties Of
Brown, Doniphan, Woodson, Meade and
Nemaha, and the last two counties re-
port a decreased acreage. The most
notable increase, however, is
shown in Western Kansas, where the
increase is from double to five times the
acreage of last year. In the northern
counties of the State there will be an
increased acreage of spring wheat
Some fears were expressed that the
recent cold snap may have injured the
wheat somewhat but the only wheat
winter-killed up to March was in spots
on bottom land. The Hessian fly did
some damage in Wabaunsee County.
Present indications are that Kansas will
produce from the increased acreage the
largest wheat crop ever known in the
history of the State, as the fall and
winter had been unusually favorable
until the recent cold spell, which was
general over the State.
Livestock of all kinds is generally in
splendid condition and free from dis
ease of any kind excepting few cases
of hog cholera, which has abated.
Farm horses are generally in better
condition at this season. Feed is cheap
and abundant wherever stock is being
full fed for market
The local prices for corn, wheat and
oats are hardly equal to the cost
of production, consequently more
full feeding of stock is be-
ing done than ever before in
order to secure better prices for corn.
The local prices of livestock are low
and cattle are lower than ever known,
and the supply Of cattle will be reduced
as consequence of the continued de-
preston in beef cattle prices
There has been an increased fall Of
snow and rain in Western Kansas dur
ing tho past fall and winter and the
farmers feel hopeful as to good crops
