WASHINGTON, ID. c., March 16.-The
Signal Service bulletin for the month
reports that freezing weather continues
in the Northwest, where the season b
backward and the ground frozen, and,
aitnough the rain fall has been less
than usual In this section, ample mois-
ture Is reported. The recent cold wealth
er has proved injurious to wheat and
fruit In Michigan, Illinois, Missouri,
Iowa and Indiana, and farm work d
delayed by the late freezing. The freez-
Ing weather In the early part of the
month extended as far southwark as
the Gulf States and Georgia and North
Carolina, with injurious effect upon all
fruit and vegetables, and in many 10
calities fruit trees are reported as seri-
ously injured. Excessive rains In the
lower Mississippi and Ohio Valleys
greatly delayed farm work and injured
crops. Wheat Is reported in good con-
dition in Texas, but the planting of corn
and cotton has been delayed by wet
weather and rain, and in some sections
replanting will be necessary.
In Louisiana cane is reported in rood
condition, but planting is DELAYED.
Low ground Is under water in Louisiana
and Mississippi. The week was favor
able in South Carolina for all crops, and
planting Of corn, cotton and rice 10 In
progress. In the Middle Atlantic
States winter grain, grasses and clover
are In excellent condition, but the re-
cent freeze probably injured the peach
crop in New Jersey and New York.
No farm work yet reported In New Eng
land, the northern portion of this re
gion being covered with snow.

Cherokee Strip Invaded.

ARKANSAS CITY, Kan, March 15.--
is estimated that &c, 900 boomers have
entered the Cherokee strip in the past
48 hours. Military has been sent after
the invaders to hold them in check.
The sight of 80 many people has caused
several stampedes Of cattle. Most Of
the invaders live In canvass-covered

The President to-day issued q procla-
nation ordering intruders to leave, as
the lands still belong to the Indians
and not to the United States. The
Oklahoma bill, now pending In Con-

ONE OF HALsTEAD's IDEAS.

He Says that n New Black State
Should be Made Out Of the Indian
Territory and Oklahoma.
NEW York, March 12.-Murat Halls
tead is in town. Mr.. Halstead has new
scheme for pacifying the south. Said
he: IA new black state should be made
out Of the Indian Territory and Okla
horna. If this is done, and shall urge
President Harrison to favor 1t, all the
discontented negroes in the southern
states can migrate to the new state and
practically govern themselves. Il do not
think the white people of the south will
object. The plan is perfectly feasible,
and think would materially assist the
Republican party. President Harrison,
| In his federal appointments In the black
state, would doubtless select none but
negroes. It would give that race Q
chance to learn how to govern them
selves and be place of refuge for them.
This is no Utopian dream Of mine, but
program I think should be soon car
| ried out. As to the Indians In the ter
ritory, why, let them remain and mix
with the negroes

That at this season the blood Is filed
with impurities, the accumulation Of

purifier ever produced. 1t is the only

GET RICH

That is a piece of advice very
much like the doctors, when he
advised the poor man to take a
sea voyage; or the poor woman
to take good nourishing food
and a glass of port wine. We
don't need to be told to get rich
but we do need to be told how
to do it.
There are many ways to get
money. Speculation is one way.
You can buy stocks, bonds,
shares, ETC., but all this re-
quires capital to start with, and
you have none, we will sup
pose. Then you must begin
saving money, but this only
shifts the shoe that pinches to
the other foot. How to save
money is nearly as great a prob
lem as how to get rich. 1t is
very well to say, "save mon
ey." That is what we started

sssary expenses may lay the
foundation for fortune for you
and you can save money every

can save by buying cheap. Yor

You can do anything if yo1

We would not waste your tins
