The Girls, Home.

A few days ago the Board of Directors
of the Girls Home held meeting for
the purpose OF passing resolution au.
thoriziug the officers to raise money by
mortgage upon the Home in order to
clear OFT urgent and pressing debts
This was the only recourse the Directors
had to enable them to continue to offer
an asylum to poor girls who had gone
astray and required a helping hand in
their hour of need. The gentlemen who
are at the head of this institution know
the great amount of good it has done.
Unfortunately, their work is such
that much publicity cannot be
given to it. Whilst the institu-
ton has, in q very quiet way,
saved great number of young girls from
a life of shame and restored them to so.
ciety, it is prohibited, for obvious rea.
sons, from making anything more than q
very remote and general reference to
them. Publicity would at once destroy
the efficiency of the institution, and
therefore there is lack OF exact know
ledge amongst the people as to the value
OF the work done, which initiates very
seriously against the power of the Direc.
tors to get such voluntary support from
the public as is necessary to its main.
tenance. It's a curious fact, which it is diff,
ficult for the gentlemen at the head of the
institution to understand, that the work
| OF the Home receives active and positive
antagonism from large number of in.
fiuential ladies. No reason can be given
for this, and it seems almost paradoxical
that an institution devoted to the rescue
from life of shame of wayward girls
who had taken false step, or who were
in danger of doing 80, should be frowned
upon, antagoniEed and tabooed by
women. Yet, We are sorry to say that
euch is the fact, and that nearly all the
difficulties the Home has had to contend
with have come from the prejudice
created against it by the sex which one
would naturally suppose would be it's
best friends and most liberal sup
porters. The Directors will raise
by mortgage monay enough to clear it of
pressing debts, and will keep the Home
going as long as they can. When the
last resources are gone, and collections
for it's maintenance cannot be raised
from the public-a conjuncture which
we hope may not ariss-the institution
will be closed. But not till then. In
the meantime those who believe that
such an institution should be maintained
will gladden. the hearts of the struggling
Directors if they will favor it with con.
tributions.

FRENCH HANK IN HOO.
A Noted IOWan and His Family
Charged With Murder.

BEDFORD, TO-, March 18.-ConSider-
able excitement was caused here last
night by the arrest for murder of Henry
Leggett, Familiarity known as French
Hank" His wife and daughter, aged
twelve years, were arrested for compile
ity. The murder for which the arrests
were made was committed in Page
county, near Shambaugh. in 1886. The
victim was the father of Leggett's wife,
who lived with his daughter. The
crime was committed for the old mans
effects, which consisted of gold watch,
SOS in money and span of mules. Inc
body was discovered about week
after the murder by fisherman. 1t
stake was driven into the ground
at the bottom of the Nodaway
river. AS soon as the Leggett
family were put under arrest, the
officer in charge telpgraphed to the
sheriff of Page county. who arrested
Hugh Taylor for completely in the
crime. The detective who made the az
rest has been working on the case for
over year. By working around the
country for farmers he gathered up the
evidence link by link until the chain
was completed. 1t is expected that Leg
gett's tWelve-year-Old daughter will
make full confession of the crime.
When the arrest was made sale was
in progress at Leggett's place, as he was
anticipating removing to Nebraska. The
officer started for Clarinda with him, at
which place he will be tried. 1t is the
prevailing opinion here that more al
rests will follow.

WINTER WHEAT DAMAGED.
The Recent Cold Wave Injured
the Growing Crop.

CHICAGO, March 1S.-The Farmers
Review will publish the follOwingS
The reports of our crop correspondents
show that the recent cold wave severely
damaged winter wheat in great many
localities. Our Illinois reports, almost
without exception, estimate damage
ranging from 10 to 80 per cent. The
heaviest damage appears to have fallen
upon the central portion of the state,
more than dozen correspondents in
that section reporting loss of from 20
to 50 per cent. Our johnson county cor
respondent reports wheat nearly all
dead. Three northern counties report
heavy damage, viz: Mercer, 20 per
cent; LaSalle, 20; Kendall, 90. A few
Southern counties report injury from
wet weather. In Indiana the wheat
fields in the central and southern por-
tions of the state appear to have been
the greater sufferers from the cold wave,
the damage ranging from 10 to so per
cent, save in Marion county, where the
crop is said to be entirely destroyed. In
Ohio the damage from winter killing
does not appear to have been as general
or severe as in either Indiana or Illinois.
The crop has been damaged in locali-
ties by excessive rain, many fields being
covered with water in the Genital and
SOulHcIu pOIllOuS VI Vic ot"tO' II ulIOu
county reports the damage by winter
killing, 60 per cent; dozen other coun-
ties complain of damage ranging from
20 to 25 per cent. In many parts of Mis-
souri, wheat has been badly winter
killed. Our correspondents in Warren,
Shelby, Greene and Hickory counties
estimate the damage at 80 per cent. In
fifteen other counties in the state the
loss will range from 10 to % per cent.
Kentucky makes the best record thus
far of any state in the winter wheat
belt. Some damage from the cold wave
is reported in Christian, Hardin and
Pulaski counties, but the general aver.
age of condition the state over is high.
Our reports indicate that Kansas wheat
fields are In very fair condition,
comparatively few of our correspond
ents reporting serious damage from
freezing or other causes. The heaviest
loss reported is in Montgomery county.
where it is said that the cold wave and
Hessian fly have combined to injure the
crop so per cent. Sleet storms have
damaged wheat fields in few counties.
The prospects are not very bright for
winter wheat in Michigan and Wiscon-
SIN at this writing. We summarize the
reports Of our correspondents relative
to the condition as follows: Illinois, 80
per cent; Indiana, 81; Ohio, "a; Mis-
sour, 90: Kentucky, so; Kansas, 95;
Wisconsin, So; Michigan, Is.
