WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.-This after
noon Justice Samuel F. Miller, of the
supreme court of the United States, was
stricken with paralysis. and is now in a
serious condition. though he is resting
comfortably and his mind is clear.
Justice Miller. who was apparently in
the best OF health, was returning from
the supreme court room to his residence.
About 2::35 he was on the west side of
Thomas circle, within sight of his resi-
dence. 1415 Massachusetts avenue. John
WOOdfOrd, his servant, who was stand
ing In the doorway Of the house, saw
the justice approaching. Then he was
startled at seeing him suddenly raise
his hand to his heart, then reel and fall
on the car tracks, which he was crossing
at the time. Woodford fastened to the
spot and found the justice SpeechleSS
and apparently in stupor. He at once
secured coupe from the neighbOring
hack stand. and, with assistance, placed
the suffering man in it and had him borne
to his room. DR.. Cook, who resides In the
neighborhood, and DR.. Lincoln, who was
fortunately passing at the time. were
soon in attendance at the bedside. They
justice was paralyZed, but he was still
Little Hope of Recovery.
Justice Miller is now resting easily,
but return of the paralytic stroke at
any moment may carry him off. He
seems to realize, as do his family. his
precarious condition. His physicians
Drs. Lincoln and Cook-hold out but lit
tie hope of recovery. His son, S. F.
Miller Jr., said to the representative
that because of the advanced age of his
father, the family entertained but little
hope of his recovery. Paralysis, he
said. ran in the family, and an aunt on
his fathers side had died of it. His
father had always feared, and at times
had had premonitions of his ap-
preaching fate. The fact that this was
the first stroke, lent some little
hope that his fathers life might be
spared for several years to come. All
the evening and late into the night
friends crowded the residence. inquir-
ing as to Justice Miller's condition.
Justice Miller was born in Richmond,
KY. April 5. 1916. In 1862 he was APP
pointed by President Lincoln associate
justice of the United States supreme
court. AT late hour tonight Justice
Miller's physicians report his condition
as extremely critical. The paralysis of
the left side still prevails; he is uncon-
scious, but the physical and mental
failings noticed during the last few
hours are such as to justify the most
alarming fears for his recovery.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 11-1:20 a. m.-
At this hour Justice Miller is asleep; no
change is apparent in his condition.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Oct. 1O.-The
president arrived in Kansas City at 5:45
p. m., three-quarters of an hour after
the time announced. 1t was the first
delay in the entire tour. An enormous
crowd awaited the presidents coming,
and it was with great difficulty that two
companies of the Third regiment, under
Col. Moore, kept the struggling crowd
within reasonable bounds, so that the
president could get to his carriage. The
escort consisted of the local militia,
which preceded and followed the line of
carriages in which the president and
his party were seated. The private
secretary occupied the first carriage,
and its passage through the streets was
marked by enthusiastic cheers from the
great crowd that filled the sidewalks of
the principal business and residence
streets. Arriving at the new Coates
house, the members of the presidential
party retired to their rooms for few
minutes and were then escorted to the
private dining room, where dinner was
received. The president sat at the
Head of the Table,
with Maj. Warner and Den Smith at
his left hand, and ex-Mayor Allen and
Mayor Holmes on his right. The secre-
tary of the navy sat at the foot of the
table, with eX-GOv. Crittenden and Mr..
Nave. The president excused himself
after the second course. In leaving, he
said that he was sorry to cause even
this temporary interruption, but all
would understand his desire to pass a
few hours under his brothers. roof. He
very much appreciated. he said, the
hospitality of the business men of Kan
sas City. He had never visited the
city before, but he had heard of it. 1t
had. been we'll advertised. He could
see by the dim light of the streets as he
drove through that it realized all that
was claimed for it. In conclusion he
would say that he hoped all of its
dreams would be realized. The
president then retired from the
room, and leaving the hotel, was
driven to the home of his brother John
Harrison, where he spent more than an
hour. In the meantime. at the dinner,
Secretary Tracy in response to toast,
spoke of Kansas City as the empire city
of the Missouri valley. Speaking of
the development of the navy he said
that he believed there was a general
demand among the American people
for its increase and Improvement. His
predecessor had had the assistance
of both Democrats and Republicans in
carrying out
Policy of Improvement,
and he was glad to say that his expert
ence had been the same. Speeches
were made also by Private Secretary
HaIford; George r. Peck, of Topeka;
Frank Lynch, of Kansas City, and 9TH
ers. 1t was nearly o'clock when the
dinner broke up, and the presidents
party was escorted from the
Coates house to the board of
trade where preparations had been made
for a public reception. The crowd
gathered there was enormous. and the
president was crowded and jostled a
great deal as he went up the steps.
When he reached the head of the great

GOT EVEN WITH HER LOVER.
A Pretty Miss Turns the Tables on
Her BetrOthed.

Z SYRACUSE, N. Y, Oct. 1O.-Oswego
county is just now enjoying hearty
laugh over the clever manner in which
a very pretty miss of that section turned
the tables on her lover. Miss Ella
Henrihan, of Constantia, is beautiful
young lady, who, about year ago, was
engaged to be married to Jay Nichols.
An elaborate feast had been prepared,
Father McGlynn had been summoned
and the young lady, surrounded by
friends, stood waiting for the expected
groom. But he did not appear. 1t was
subsequently learned that the young
mans parents made such objections to
his being married by priest of the
Catholic faith that he weakened. Soon
after he went South and remained
there several months. A short time ago
he returned and met his former sweet
heart, who greeted him cordially and
soon another wedding was prepared for.
Rev. Mr.. Embrey, Protestant clergy
man, had been secured to tie the knot
this time. The young people were al
ready in the parsonage, and had just
joined hands, when gruff voice cried
out, "Break away" and instinctively
Jay dropped Elias hand. The young
lady went to the door, met her brother
and Harvey George and. bidding her
faint-hearted lover good night, left him
standing alone in the parlor of the par
sonage with the dominic who was to
have performed the ceremony.

of Wheat.

Of Wheat.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1O.-The October
estimates of yield per acre, for the en-
tire breadth of cereal crops, as consoli-
dated by the department of agriculture,
are: Winter wheat. 1913 bushels per
acre; spring wheat, lis; the wheat
crop, Ill; oats, 1913; barley,
81; rye. lis bushels: The con-
dition of corn is 7O.6 instead OF
7O.1 last month, buckwheat 9O.7, instead
of 9O.5; potatoes 61.7, instead of 65.7;
tobacco S5.4, instead of S2.4. There is
practically no change in the general av-
erage of condition. except reduction OF
four points in potatoes and an increase
of two points in tobacco. The effect Of
winter frost upon wheat is shown by
the low rate of yield to have been Sc

but for the reduction of area by plow-
ing and planting of the worst
fields in other crops. Some of the
higher rates in principal states:

Ohio, 1875; Michigan, 1872; Illinois. rs; !;

cases from one to thirty bushels. One
county in Illinois claims 1.-THE best crop

''a poorer crop than was expected. -
Soils in good condition that
had thorough tillage made the best
