ANTE HARVEST GUESSES.
Prominent Minneapolis Grain
Men Give Estimates of.
the Wheat Crop.
The Yield For the Dakotas and
and Minnesota Placed at
lOO,OOO,OOOBushels.
Kansas Corn Crop Ruined by Drouth
The Hay Crop Also
Failure.

MINNEAPoLIs, Aug. THE Evening
Journal publishes estimates Of several
prominent men in position to size up"
with as much accuracy as any one the
probable wheat crop OF Minnesota and
the Dakotps. Col. G. D. Rogers places
the yield in Minnesota at 45,000,OOO
bushels. and in the Dakotas at 90, ,OO0,-
600, or a total for the three states OF
1000, 900 bushels President Green
leaf, of the chamber # commerce,
agrees with Col. Rogers as to the total
crops, but not as to the division. He
places Minnesota at 40 900. 900 bushels
and the Dakotas at 60 100, 900 bushels.
All the prophets argllo that the wheat
crop VIII be one of the largest ever har-
vested, and that there is nothing in the
weather condition that should cause
alarm or give rise to pessimistic reports.
The hot weather
Has Not Done Serious Damage,
taking the country as whole, and har
vest is now in progress. The general feel
ing is that the three states will turn out
from the farmers hands 100, 100000
bushels of wheat. and that no one need
be discouraged at such an outcome, as it
means the distribution of a large amount
of money.
AS to what the wheat crop will be
worth grain men differ somewhat,
though there seems to be a general opin-
ion that 70 cents will be about the start
ing figure, or about 20 cents net to the far
mer, after storage charges, ETC., are paid.
Travelling Agents Estimate.
A fair crop is more the rule this year
than last The travelling agent of the
Pittsburg company, in a report made
last Thursday from Larimore, says the
crops along the Northern Pacific in the
Red River valley will be good, and he has
inspected thousands of acres. The yield
in the Devils Lake country will be twice as
good as last year, or about eight bushels
TO the acre. The Jim River valley, run
ming from north of Jamestown south to
La Moure, will return a good crop, and
that means from twelve to fifteen bush
els per acre From La Moure south to
Redfeld, with Aberdeen as the center,
the conditions are reversed, and not over
half crop will be secured. From Aber-
been west to the Missouri the outlook is
not encouraging, covering Edwards,
Walworth, Mcpherson and Campbell
counties. The wheat between Redfeld
and Yankton has been harvested, and
an excellent yield is reported, running
quite uniformly in excess of twelve
bushels to the acre.
Minnesota in Good Condition.
Minnesota, as whole, is in good crop
condition. Perhaps the poorest section
is out in the big timber, covering Car
ger and adjacent counties, where the
crop was unusually good a year ago.
The local grain elevator men are en-
tirely satisfied with the outlook. They
are of the opinion that the hot weather
has not done great damage during the
last few days.

CORN A FAILURE.
Kansas Crop Ruined by the Drouth---
HAY Crop Short.

Hay Crop Short.
ABILENE, Kan, Aug. 1T is ad-
mitted by all that the corn crop of Cen
tral Kansas is ruined. No matter how
much rain falls, hot winds have blown
for three days and stalks are shriveled.
Only local rains have fallen for over a
month, and the prairies are so dry that
fires break out daily. The hay crop is
an entire failure, as well as the fruit
crop. A large acreage Of wheat will be
put in if it rains enough to plow. Stock
of food. The drouth is considered the
no sign of its being broken.

Her steamer acquaintance.

A well-known st. Paul woman, who
not long ago made little journey in
the world" came back with some world
ly wisdom as to the indiscriminate MAX
ing Of friends that she had never had
before. says the New York Evening
Sun. 1t came about in this way. Her
'little journey" was across the water,
and while on the hOmeward-bOund ship
she found herself one day engaging in
the most animated and pleasing con-
verSatiOn with man who sat near her
chair ON the deck. There was some
thing wonderfully pleasing in his per-
sonality; he was evidently a person of
culture, and with wonderful fund of
knowledge at his command. HIS entire
bearing toward her was one of such
exquisite tact and Difference that the
two soon became warm friends, and
spent long hours each day in exchang-
ing opinions upon all kinds of impersonal
topics. By and by, just before the steam
ship reached New York, it transpired
that the man, himself still unknown,
had known all along who the lady was
and where her home was. When she
asked him In surprise how he could have
known her he answered briefly, II am
st. Paul man myself" This gave the
kindly little woman an opportunity.
''Then my husband and l will be glad
to see you any time in our home," she
said cordially.
Pardon me. madam he answered
| frankly, 1--WE have been friends on board
the steamship, but when we return to
st. Paul neither you nor your husband
would receive me in your home, and you
would be fully justified. | beg you will
not ask the reason"
And she did not. But when few
hours later her husband met her on the
pier and she pointed her late friend out
to him with the whispered story he
answered slowly: "Well. he has behaved
| like gentleman, and / won't thrash
him. But he was quite right in what he
| said, He is one of the best known
| confidence men in the United States"

The Deadly Single Instance.

CnlC9SO ADVANCE.
How single incident may become
representative! Gen. Schenck is popu-
larly supposed to have spent the larger
part of his evenings with dukes and
duchesseS. marquises and marchion-
esses, teaching them the great Ameri-
can game, and yet | believe that the
evidence is that it was only upon one
evening, and only as an accident of that
evening, that the American minister at
the court of st. James said word as
to the game of poker. Andrew John
son is commonly supposed to have been
4 drunkard. The common supposition
had its origin in the fact that at the time
of his Inauguration he was intoxicated.
He was; but it was the last as it was the
first time. He was suffering from
serious and annoying disease. At the
recommendation of a friend he took a
strong dose of brandy just before the
public exercises of the Inauguration.
The charges of his political enemies that
he was drunk were true. Drinking was
not his habit. So a minister from a
single incident gains reputation which
is not pleasing. For the sake of keep
ing an appointment, he may drive a
horse so hard as to produce lasting i'll
juries; this incident may be the couse
of reputation that he delights in fast
horses and is also cruel. H8c fabula
docet beware of suffering yourself to be
the subject of a conspicuous and pub
llcly known exceptional incident; do
not allow yourself to draw differences
from single incident.

CHICAGO, Sept. 1S.-The trade was whip

sellers In the pit early, and got the crowd

ne was buyer through other houses, and
after the ether fellows let their wheat go to

December started at ST O2 and went to
SLOPE, with May at S1.O614@1 .O6s4. This
brought on the Hutchinson selling through
Farnum and others. The only good buying
early was by Mitchell and Durham & Co.
