WASHINGTON, The weekly weather
aud crop bulletin SAYS: Reports from
the spring wheat region in Minnesota and
Dakota state that recent showers have
greatly improved crops in that section.
especially late wheat, while warmer
weather and more rain will be beneficial.
Crop conditions are also generally i'm
proved in the Missouri valley and Illinois,
and Iowa, and wheat is heading in fine
condition except in the central counties
of Illinois. where insects are i%niuring
grain and hay and oats will be short. Corn
planting is about completed, but the cool
and cloudy weather has retarded
growth. Severe hail in Commanche
county, Kansas, destroyed much
wheat. Some damage has resulted from
the same cause in several counties IN
Missouri, and 10 the latter state from a
tornado. Frosts on the 18th caused some
injury to crops and fruit in Michigan add
northern portions OF Ohio, Indiana and
Illinois. Oregon reports excellent grow
ing weather; wheat and rye are heading,
and fruit is uninjnred and promising. In
north California the cool weather was
favorable to grain but retards the ripeniug
of fruit. A large hav crop is being
secured. In southern California rain
damaged hay and lodged grain but was
beneficial to com and fruit.

THE CARE OF SHOES.

Never try to wear a shoe too small OF
that does not fit when first put on.
Never put a good pair of shoes in ga
loches; use an old pair for this and with
draw the galoches as soon as you enter the
house.
Never try on or handle a patent leather
shoe when cold; always thoroughly warm
1t before bending the leather. A patent
leather shoe put on in a warm room can bs
worn out into the cold weather without
injury.
Never let your shoe get hard oil dry. Do
not let it run down at the heel or the side.
Never wear into the welt or insole. A
shoe repaired in time will retain its shape
and afford comfort, and will be found true
economy
Never put wet shoes by the fire to dry,
but dry them gradually and slowly. Never
dry a wet shoe without first applying some
oil or grease; castor oil or tallow is the
best. The steam generated in a wet shoe
or boot will scald it and ~luse it to crack.
Do not use too much force in polishing;
a gentle brushing with a soft brush is bet
ter than the vigorous work OF the boot
black. Do not allow a thick crust of black
ing on your shoes. Wash it Off occasion
ally and apply a little castor oil; you can
polish it over in an hour or two.-New
York Ledger.

New YoRK, M% 23.-At a meeting
of the Pdruoll delegates reception COM
mittee, held Today, resolutions were
adopted d, %claring that the action OF GER
tain members of the Parliamentary Fund
Association in forwarding to Justin Me-
Carthy $4,000 OF the proceeds of the
Dillon o Brien reception Is a gross
breach of faith to the subscribers,
as 1t vas pledged that the
one wpnii be sent only to Messrs.
Kenny and Webb, JOINT TIRE asurers of both
sections of the Irish parliamentary party.
The resolutions express surprise that Eu-
gene Kelly, the treasurer. in the face of
his repeated assurances that he
would retain these funds until
the dissensions 10 the party were settled,
should have consented to hand over thus
portion of the funds to the exclusive con
troll of Mccarthy and his supporters. The
resolutions further state that it is proper
to inform the Irish people at home that
the attempted formation of a national
federation of America merely emanates
from a handful of gentlemen. individually
responsible, but representative of nobody
but themselves, and who did not hold any
public meeting to create this proposed
organization. and who are wholly unable
to obtain onY public endorsement of their
action.

Hebrew Invasion of England.

LONDON, May 23.-England is becom-
ing alarmed at the exodus of destitute
Hebrews from Russia, as large numbers
of them are seeking refuge in Great
Britain. This movement has assumed
such proportions that it is termed the
Hebrew invasion of England" 1t is
estimated that about 500 appeals are
made each week to the different news
papers by individuals urging that the
authorities should introduce legislation TO
exclude destitute aliens similar to the i'm
migration law recently adopted by the
United States.
The EUeniHg Nel1s warns the authori
ties that if the Hebrew invasion" is not
checked there will grow up an anti He
brew movement in England. in compari-
son with which the New Orleans ieud
would be a small affair.
On the other hand the manager of a
shelter, an institution established for
the reception of Hebrews arriving here,
asserts that almost every destitute arrival
is entrusted to his care, and that the mum
Der does not exceed twenty per week,
fully nine-tenths Of which number are re-
shipped TO Chicago, New York. Boston
or the English colonies. When ques-
toned as TO how these destitute Hebrews
succeeded in gaming admission into the
United States in the face OF the law pro-
viding for the exclusion OF destitute aliens,
the manager of the Hebrew shelter said,
oh, we take care 10 provide for them
before they are shipped. so that on land
ing they can show that they are capable
OF earning a living. There is no reason
why any country should object to tins
A careful investigation OF the subject
tends to prove that about 500 weekly is
the correc, bulk OF destitute Hebrews
captured by the sweaters" upon the
arrival of the former in this country. The
captured" Hebrews are then lodged in
dives in the vicinity of the dock, and work
for "sweating" tailors at the 10 west
possible wages. barely sufficient to keep
BODY and soul together.
Ii is also shewn that systematic procura-
tons exists in regard to the young Hebrew
girls, and a society has been formed com
posed of Hebrew ladies in order to
prevent this system of procuration. The
ladies' composing this society have arranged
to send an INSPECTOR TO each ship arriving
here with Hebrew emiRrants on board.
These inspectors will warn the Hebrew
girls against the dangers awaiting them
and will see that they are not enticed into
the lens which abound in certain sections
of London.

be found on the books OF the Keystone
bank aud there is no evidence that Bard
sleY ever deposited the money in the bank
except the receipt of President Gideon
W. Marsh.
To further cOmp licate matters President
Marsh, who is under $4,000 bail for
wrecking the bank, is now a fugitive from
justice, and he has quietly slipped off
while the attention of the people has
been attracted to the city treasurer.
Mr.. BardsleY is responsible today for
the following sums. Due the state for
taxes, 1881 900; due the city for deposits
in the Keystone bank. SAL, 900; due the
city for deposits in the Spring Garden
bank, $40, 900; total. 81. 5l2, 600.
The revelations regarding the state
funds were made tonight aud were a com
plete urprs to BardsleY's friends. What
be has done with the money nobody ex-
cept his counsel knows The retention
and loss of state funds is a misdemeanor,
aud Bardsley is prepared to 20 to Jail if
needs be. 1t is thought that this thing
will lead to trouble for the state treasurer
aud auditor general, who should have
compelled Ba-dsley To hand over the state
funds before. So far as tho city funds
are concerned the city will lose more than
half 4 million of dollars, In addition to
the above statement Bardsley has a credit
of 100000 in the Keystone bank to his
own name. The man has not had 500
600 in cash for years, and this is supposed
to be city money. In addition another
bank is expected to close its doors tOmor-
row. This concern has $500. 900 of city
money on deposit. This will only add
fuel to the flames and create greater trou-
bic here.
The city finances are in an awful mud
die, and the developments of tomorrow
are anxIously awaited.

KANSAS CITY, May 23.-Judge Field
OF the circuit court rendered a very im-
portant decision this morning based on
the dram shop act of 1889. The case is
an INDUCTION proceeding brought by the
adjoining property owners to close a saloon.
The judge made a permanent injunction
restraining the saloon keeper from con
Quoting a dram shop business, aud the
county and city licenses held 10y him

tor issuance signed by a majority of the
citizens living in the block in which the
saloon was located; failure to indemnify
the city and county against Sunday open
ing; selling liquor to habitual ~drunkards:
permitting gambling, etc. An appeal was
taken. If the decision Is sustained every
saloon in the city will be affected and
every saloon license void.
