From a Journal Mans Notebook,

On Sound steamer recently we fell in with
Il young man the cut of whose ill indicated
that he was seafarer, and during the CONVEX
sation 1t came out that his haiug port was
Farmingdae, and that he had just returned
from "A foreign voyage. When at home he is
near neighbor of Capt John II. Drew. widely
known as the "kenntbecker," and lie is proud
to be called ''one of Capt. Drew'> boys" But
let US give him his name, and it is one that was
borne by leading citizen of Belfast in the
past Capt. James +. White. The Captain en-
quired for the Whites of this city, knew all
their Names and we inferred was relative
but he said he was not named for our James
+. White. Capt White was for some years in
command OF the schooner A,ll Bailey Of 800
tons, and when She was sold last wear by her
Bath owners he was prevailed upon TO 60
foreign voyage in her. making Il very success

The Aroostook Times thinks that census cnum-
orators should add to their list of questions the
following "Do you owe for your paper? If 50
how long and do you ever intend to pay:' We are
glad to he able to say that most of the Journal

torly.

other steamboats, in this country, which is
equiv alent to saying in the world. But the
Puritan and the Pilgrim, in magnidcence, in
speed and in safety, fairly distance the Proyi-
dence and the Bristol of only few years ago
Going to New York on the Puritan we were
an hour late in leaving Newport, and As the
boat was said to bG due at New York about
$50 A. NJ. and we wanted to take train at
Jersey city at $50, the outlook was not reas-
Suring. But at o'clock next morning the
Puritan was 1T her pier in New York. Later
We read of race on the Sound in which this
boat made % knot,-about - miIes-an hour.

THE WHEAT CROP.
Condition of Winter Wheat in a Number

Condition of Winter Wheat in a Number
of the States.
CHICAGO, May 27.-The Farmers Re-
view will publish the following: "Rela-
tive to winter wheat, our Illinois cor
respondents continue to report the con-
dition as declining. Many complaints Of
chess and cheat and several correspond
ents report damage by the Hessian fly
Indiana averages show slight imprc ve-
ment in the condition since OR last re-
port. In Ohio the condition has not
changed materially during the past two
weeks. In Missouri, the weather IN some
portions of the state has been favorable,
and considerable improvement had taken
place in those localities. Wheat is head
ing irregularly, however, and there are
complaints of chess. Kentucky reports
OF the condition show decline of sew
eral points. In Kansas, the wheat has
been considerably injured by drought,
and in few counties by hail and the
Hessian fly. The average of the con-
dition in that state is apparently 10
per cent lower than it was two
weekly ago. Abundant rains have
lately fallen in many parts of
the state and the condition will doubt
less improve during the coming week. In
Michigan some improvements in the
condition has taken place. Relative to
the spring wheat the correspondents
generally report that termination and
growth have been much retarded by the
drought and cold weather, and the Stand
is very uneven. Abundant showers
have fallen in the last few days, however,
sufficient for the present needs of the
spring sown grain. In Minnesota,
South Dakota Iowa and Nebraska they
still suffer from drought. We sum-
marize as follows, the reports of corres-
pondents relative to the condition of
wheat; winter wheat-Illinois, 67 per
cent; Indiana. 66 per cent; Ohio, IS per
cent; Kentucky. 81 per cent; Missouri,
81 per cent; Kansas, 80 per cent; Wis
consin, " per cent; Michigan, 81 per
cent. Spring wheat-Iowa, 50 per cent;
Nebraska, 80 per cent; Minnesota, Sc
per cent; South Dakota, 80 per cent;
Wisconsin, 90 per cent.

New YORK, May 28.-To step from
sumptuous supper table in Delmonico's,
where he had been dining with two
wealthy Englishmen, one of them baro-
net, into the clutches of detective and
thence to a prison cell was the expert
ence OF John McDermott, who was ar
rested last evening for swindling people
out of various sums of money and for
whom the detectives have been looking
for some time. The Englishmen were
Sir Robert Peel, who arrived in this
country Sunday night, and Mr.. Clifford
Talbot, who came here on the Aurania.
They met McDermott who told them he
was Inspector Byrnes' head detective
and was coming from Germany where
he had delivered foreigner to the
authorities. He promised to show them
the sights of New York and got into
their good graces. Sir Robert presented
him with a diamond scarf pin worth
$500; turned over his baggage checks to
him, gave him four English e5 notes-in
fact he and Mr.. Talbot placed themselves
in his hands. They had been looking
at the sights of the city up to Tuesday
night, when they dined at Delmonicos.
Detective Sergeants McCusky and Null
holland of Inspector Byrnes' staff were
passing Delmonico's at the time
and looking through the window,
saw McDermott, whom they recognized
sitting at table. They waited
until he came out and put him under ar
rest His friends were dumbfounded but
the detectives explained matters McDer-
mott, they said, was wanted for the lar
ceny of 81 ,25O out of which sum he swim
died Mrs. Thayer, widow living at
Muncy, a small town in this state, under
Pretense of marrying her. To-day Mrs
Thayer came to the city and identified
McDermott. Sir Robert Peel made no
complaint, but left for Chicago. McDer-
mott is A years old and was hack driver
IN this city. He will be arraigned in
court tomorrow morning.
