Doubtless the reports from some cities in
this country concerning the prevalence of
the influenza are greatly exaggerated.
There is no doubt that the disease has
reached the United States, and it will prob
ably skip very few cities of Importance,
but careful investigation would reveal the
fact that large number of reported cases
of it are nothing more nor less than common
colds. The extraordinary weather for the
last month has probably caused almost an
epidemic of colds in some localities.

A movement has been started in Wash
ington to secure the appointment of female
reading clerks for the House and Senate
The idea was suggested some time ago,
when, the House being about deserted, a
member, accompanied by some lady friends,
whom he was showing the sights of the
capitol. entered the nall, and, in spirit of
sport, one Of the ladies mou lted the speak
er's platform and began an address to a
mythical assemblage. The clearness with
which her voice penetrated the farthest
corners of the hall was remarked upon, it
being distinctly heard. although little effort
was exerted to speak loud. Some one said,
in jest, that she ought to he the reading
clerk, and it was not long before there was
quite strong movement to have woman
appointed to that position. Perhaps it will
succeed in time.

The Rev. W. H. Hubbard of Auburn. N.

church choir last Sunday. The choir was
enjoying itself. It's members were having
no end of fun, and Mr.. Hubbard requested
them to keep quiet. No attention was paid
to his request. The laughter became more
and more audible, and at length Mr. Hub
bard, who had commenced his sermon,
stopped suddenly. looked at the choir, and
abruptly dismissed the congregation. That
why the Auburn people are excited.

The month CT October winds up all over
the Northwest and also the Southwest, with
the exception of n few areas, with the def
cheney OF moisture, which has been the
marked feature of the present growing sea-
son, very nearly If not fully made up.
Hence much larger area OF fall blowing
has been done in the spring wheat belt than
usual, and there has also been a very large
and full acreage OF winter wheat sown.,
Farmers have had excellent weather for
gathering the corn, and over so per cent. OF IL
has been housed. Take Nebraska as a whole.
and from 40 TO so Per cent. of the cora crop
has now been gathered. A large proportion
OF the crop is light and chaffy. In Southern
Nebraska farmers that were expecting from
ten to fifteen bushels per acre only got from
three to five. In Eastern Nebraska very
few fields are going over ten to twenty
bushels to the acre. Old corn Is selling at
so cents bushel. In Southern Kansas the
wet weather has prevented farmers from
gathering their corn. Generally speaking.
farmers are disappointed with regard to the
yield and the quality is not as good as was
expected. The surplus corn in Kansas this
year will be small. In Southern Iowa farm
ers have just fairly commenced gathering
their corn. The crop Is turning out poorly
in quantity and quality.

Gently captured in Chicago, has made
startling confession. Shinn confessed that
he and Thorn returned to California early
In 1889 and camped on the American River,
about three miles from Sacramento. This
was tho rendezvous to which he always
returned after his raids. He admits that
July 81, 1880, they stopped q stage from
Milton to Sonora and robbed the passen-
gers of $50. They blew open the Wells s.
Fargo treasure box with giant powder, but
found IL empty. Sept 10 of the same year
they stopped a stare between Quincy and
Oroville, and took a gold bar worth $50
fromthe Wells & Fargo box. In April OF
this year they he'd up the Forest Hill
stage in Placer County and robbed pas
scngers. Besides these robberes Shinn
confessed TO numerous burglaries,
garrotings, and robberies committed
by him and Thorn. They returned to Chi
cago May 30 last, and he says between that
time and the date OF capture they COM
mitted something like twenty-five robberles
and burglares In the State of Illinois.
Their rendezvous on the America River has
been found by Chief OF Police Drew of
Sacramento, who hunted for it four Seeks
before he found 1t. He says it is an ideal
robbers roost, and the robbers could never
have been dlslodged from IL.

Dr. William N. Hib5ard died at his rcsi-

Of which cases arc extremely rare About

poison has only recently become known to
science and deaths from 1t are rare. The

Selmi, an eminent authority, to designate
substances obtained from putrefying or
ganic matter. Recent Investigations
have developed the fact that every animal
organism Is flied with microbes. These
microbes excrcte certain particles In proc
ess of decay after death. These excrcta
are the ptomaincs that form the poisonous
element I'm the animal food. These pto-
maines are most commonly found In oysters,
