Condition of Crops.

CHICAGO, Oct. 21.-The Farmers Re-
view tomorrow will say: A careful ex-
animation of estimates furnished by our
correspondents reveals the fact that the
corr crop is turning out better than was
expected. The crop in Michigan and
Wisconsin is larger than that of last
year and the returns in Minnesota and
Dakota are almost as large as in 1889.
Other states, however, show a considera-
BILE shortage. This is the most marked
in Kansas and Nebraska, where the crop
will be less than one-half that of 1889.
In several counties in those states corn is
a total failure; at least, 1t is poor in quail
ity and in most cases only fit for fodder.
As to Michigan and Wisconsin's crops Of
corn, five correspondents in the state
first named, writing from Grand Trav-
erse, Montcalm, Osceola, Bersee and
Wexford counties report ''The best crop
in years." The quality Of the corn is
said to be "Fair to good" in both states.
Minnesota and Dakota are harvesting
the average amount of hard corn. The
Review estimates the average yield in
Illinois to be % bushels per acre; in In
diana, %; Ohio, 81; Kentucky, %; Mis-
souri,, %; Kansas, IA; Wisconsin, 40;
Michigan, AZ; Iowa, 30; Nebraska, 49,;
Minnesota, 80; Dakota, %.

Mambrino Maid.

The rich blood that courses through
swift Mambrino Maids veins comes to her
from all her lines of descent, mi is a nota-
BILE combination of Hambletonian and
Mambrino Chief. She was foaled in 1883
in Kentucky by Granville Cecil, and her
sire was Mambrino Startle, son of Startle,
while her dam was Winnie Wilkes by
Red Wilkes, and her grand dam Gypsy
Queen by Bourbon Chief. Her pedigree
shows three crosses to Mambrino Chief,
two to Hambletonian, and one each to
Henry Clay, Capt. Walker and American
Star, while such noted producers as Old
Lady, Little Miss and Jessie Kirk are rep
resented.
Mambrino Maids first turf work was At
Ha~rrodsville, KY, Aug. 1, 1889, when she
was beaten by Matte Wilkes. Before the
conclusion of the month she had a record
of 2:23N. At Dundee park, near Pater-
son, N. j., she lowered her record to 2:2l1
in June, 1890. At Belmont park July 10
she was beaten by Edith R., but trotted
one heat in 2:1sL. Her lowest notch thus
far was scored at Cleveland in the Grand
circuit. when she did. a mile in 2:17H. She
was victorious at Cleveland, Buffalo and
Rochester, but wa downed at Pou9h-

No Place for the Camel.

Those purveyors to the summer resorts
of America who contemplate making cam
els an attraction Of the ocean beach next
year will doubtless be interested in the
news that the town council Of Brighton,
England, has refused to allow the presence
of these animals at that watering place.
The camel, it was declared by the authors
of the veto upon his advent, may be an an
imal whose peculiarities are full of interest
to the man of science, but it cannot be said
that he is suitable for general riding. His
temper is uncertain, his appearance ludi-
crous, and his movements unduly remi-
niscent of the switchback railway. In
deserts camels are Indispensable; in cir
cuses and menageries they frequently COM
port themselves with a becoming dignity.
But if they were brought upon the beach
of q fashionable watering place, and made
to listen to the banjo Of the Ethiopian SER
enader and the braying trumpets of the
town band, there is no saying of what ex-
cesses their emotions might not make them
caDable.

The old skating rink, accommodating
1000 people, in which a mass meeting
was held tonight, was filed to overflow
ing, and as many nor people were try
ing to gain an entrance to the hall when
the governor was introduced by Chair
man Welby. Governor Hill was vigor-
ously applauded as he stepped to the
front Of the stage at 8 Up. m. and made q
speech in which he arraigned5 the repub-
lican party for it's actions in congress
and argued against McKinley's election.
The applause at times was long and
hearty.

two volumes of poems and negro dialect

nalist, Poet and Humorist.
A source of pleasure to the traveller in
the new northwestern states is unexpected
meetings with familiar faces. Men known
in other years and distant places are en-
countered in almost every town. Recently
at Fairhaven, Wash, I found a friend
whose nam is familiar ip many eastern
dties-Wil L. Visscher. He is a native of
Kentucky, and learned bis trade as a jour
nalist with George D. Prentiss, once the
nal.
When the Courier and Journal were con-
solidated Visscher was city editor Of the
latter. His next essay in journalism was
made on the old Mississippi river steam
boat Richmond, plying to New Orleans
from Ohio river points, and his floating
paper was called The Richmond Headlight.
Eighteen months later he took service on
The Indianapolis Journal. Subsequently
he was employed as editorial writer and
Photographer on various papers, including
The Kansas City Journal, st. Joseph (Mo.)
Herald, Omaha Herald, Denver News, San
Francisco Post and Call and Cheyenne
Sun. For six months he edited Pomeroy's
Democrat at Denver. He then published
a humorous sheet called Hello, and a G. A.
r. magazine. Later he did work on Chi
cage papers, and in 1888 revisited the coast
and was employed at Portland on The Ore
gonian.
In 1889 he took charge of The Daily

CHICAGO, Oct. pa terrible crime

The old gentleman's corpse was found

With an axe. Brazelrs pockets had each

PoRr HURON, Mich, Oct. 22.-Last

Power Of the Jewish Rabbi.

There are $50 Jewish synagogues in Jeru-
salem, and if the Russian Jews go to the
Holy Land, as they intend, synagogues will
spring up all over the country. The Jew
fish synagogue Of the Holy City is different
from that Of America. The service is
longer and the people,, ! think, are more
devout. The rabbis are gorgeously clad,
and the Jerusalem rabbi has more power
than any American preacher. he is the
governor of his congregation and he does
their business for them. The Turks allow
him to settle most of the suits which arise
between the people of his congregation,
and he is lawyer, Judge and governor

east bound Rock Island train which was
following, the Rock Island train crashed
into the Pullman sleeper Of the Union

completely wrecked and the engi-

Scoring Governor Campbell.

COLUMBUS, O., Oct. 21.-Governor
Campbell's message was read in the sem
ate this afternoon and referred. Follow
ing this, a strong attack wa made on the
governor by Senator Brown of Cincin-
natl who, in a lengthy speech, con-
demned his course relative to the board
of improvements at Cincinnati and read
a letter which Campbell had written at
the time of the appointment, expressing
the greatest confidence in Resmelin,
president of the board. During the ses-
sion the senate passed a bill providing
that Mayor Mosby shall have the ap-
pointment of members of the new board,
and the election is to be held in April.
The bill is n%on-partisan in character and
abolishes the present board. There we're
only three votes in the senate against the
bill, all the republicans voting in
it's favor. The measure is in
the line of Governor Camp
bells message and is substantially
what was asked in the original message
bill. 1t is believed it will pass the house
as the republican members Of the judi
dietary committee of that body reported
substantially endorsing the governors
message. Senator-elect Brice has been
in consultation with the governor during
the day and is given the credit for bring
ing about a probable settlement of the
difficulties and the anticipated passage
of the bill. The house caucus, controlled
by democrats, said to be opposed to the
governor, has agreed upon a bill giving
the governor power to remove for aus
only, and fixing the election for April.
There will be a contest in the house over
the two propositions.

How the Money Must be Used.

CHICAGO, Oct. 20.-An afternoon paper
publishes an abstract of a letter received
by President Palmer, Of the National
Worlds Columbian commission, from
Secretary Window in regard to the ex-
penses of the commission. The secretary
first states that of the $1,50O,0OO appro-
priated, 100000 must be used in the
construction of a government building,
leaving 100000 for other expenses.
For the fiscal year ending June Both,
1891, there is appropriated jointly 100000
for expenses Of the commission and uses
of the government board of control. The
government board has estimated that it
will need $4,000, leaving $150,0W for
the use of the commission. The secre-
tary shows that most Of this has been al
ready used, and he reluctantly approves
the salaries established by the commits
sion.
