STOCKS and CarrIe Markets.

NEW York. Sept. 24.-The stock mar.
ket opened this morning irregular and
excited. Weakness in Missouri Pacific
was the most pronounced at the outset
and 4 per cert was knocked off the price
within the first hour. The rest of the
market dragged down and the decline
was steady during the morning. Then
there was a slight recovery. In the last
hour, however, there was a renewal OF
the depressing influence. Missouri Pa
ciic took another dip and touched 65
against 743 last evening. while Union
Pacific dropped to 40 and many others,
including Lackawanna, showed marked
weakness. The stocks which had through
out the forenoon resisted the decline now
gave way. The close was active and weak
at about the bottom figures of the day.
The losses are very material and signIfi-

AND SUMNER COUNTIES.

An EAGLE man in his rambles about
town in quest of the fleeting item, met, in
prominent lawyers Office two prominent
farmers from Sumner and Sedgwick coun-
ties respectively. In the course of the con-
versation the wheat crop now in the fields
of Sumner and Sedgwick counties was
discussed. The Sumner county farmer
disclosed state of facts, which is astound-
ing. An eastern man was present and
listened in establishment. The Sedgwick
county man was not bad second in his
statements. A general round up of all of
the conversation showed that the wheat
crop of the two great counties this year is
the largest ever raised Sumner county
has $4,000 acres i'll wheat. Sedgwick
county has 10000 acres in wheat.
Sumner county will probably raise 6,0oO,-
600 bushels of wheat Sedgwick county
will produce about 100000 bushels of
wheat. Sumner has the largest wheat
acreage in her history. Sedgwick has
large wheat acreage, but will make up in
corn acreage what she lacks in wheat. At
present prices man can see at a glance
what this amount Of wheat means, to the
great counties. Parties are now in the
field offering to contract new wheat at
20 cents per bushel. AS a result the farm
ers of this and the surrounding counties
are feeling in the best of spirits.
What can be said of Sumner and Sedg-
wick counties is true of Butler, Harper,
Cowley, Harvey and the surrounding
counties of southern Kansas.

the trip which / took yesterday through

mense grain fields now ripening in south
ern Kansas, and behold orchards loaded
with fruit of all kinds, they would see
sight beyond the description of any living
mortal, and possibly hereafter hold their
peace.
Sedgwick, Sumner, Harper. Kingman
and Reno counties have An acreage, &C
cording to assessors returns in 620 600
acres of wheat, Sumner county being the
banner county, with o., 900 acres.
This immense acreage of wheat repre-
sents field 81 miles long and 124 miles
around it, and would require G2, 800 men
fourteen days to harvest the same with
cradles as wheat was harvested thirty
years ago
At an average of twenty bushels per
acre, it will yield Il, $685. 900 bushels, bat I
think the average will be twenty-five
The amount of wheat would load Is, 120
cars with 500 bushels each, and standing
end to end they would reach 176 miles. and
made up into trains with engine and ca
boose would span Kansas from north to
south.

consequence. The more innocent young
girls smile most brightly on the young
man who sends flowers and candy, and the
fast ones play q regular game to get gifts
of more substantial sort. Men are so
foolish too. They fancy women sincere
and honest, and consider it privilege

And around him are lying his sheep;
While over their heads IN the sky's azure

See, the Man in the Moon and his sheep.
Sleep, sleep.
There are sheep on the earth. there are sheer

But no one can think il Is strange,
When they know that the Man in the Moor

And the skyland up there is his range.
Sleep, sleep.
The Man in the Moon is q herder. dear,
And the woolly white clouds are his sheep.
The little lamb ran by his mother all day;
he tired his four little feet,
And he is lying beside her asleep,
Under the dusky mosquito;
While through the blue pastures Of heaven
The moon man Is drifting his sheep.
Sleep, sleep.
Shut up your two pretty eyes,
For the Lobo might come
From his hauntS in the hills
And howl at baby that cries.
Sleep, sleep.

And the woolly white clouds are his sheep.
