LONDON, June 10.-The-e was no decrease
in the crowd in attendance at the baccarrat
trial. Sir Edward Clarke spoke for the
plaintiff, William Gordon Cumming. Sir
Edward made a sensation by saying that it
would be impossible to strike the name Of
Sir William Gordon Cumming from the
army list and leave the Prince of Wales
name thereon.
Sir Edward further said that it had been
the common talk that the Prince of Wales
continual presence in court during the trial
had been for the purpose OF restraining the
tongues of the lawyers engaged in the case
from commenting upon the Prince of Wales
connection with it.
This remark caused a sensation, but it was
nothing to what followed further utterances
of the counsel.
Continuing he intimated that the princes
presence would not prevent him from max
ing any comment necessary. saying that he
had painful duty to perform and that he
intended 70 perform it faithfully.
''I appear in this case" he said, ''as sim
pie barrlster, and am obliged to disregard
friendship and even my own interests and
comment upon the conduct and evidence of
one of the highest in the land"
As he made these remarks he turned and
squarely faced the prince, who nervously
eros ,ed his legs.

of sensation. It was al if thunder clap

Prince of Wales in colors totally unexpected,

of England.
Amidst this storm the prince sat immova-

Kansas Weather Service.

SIGNAL STATION, WAsHBuRN COLLEGE, To-
PEKA, KAN.-The rainfall has been we'll dis
tributed over the state. It il least in the
southeastern, northwestern, and extreme
western counties, and is greatest in the belt
Doniphan.
The temperature has been below the nor
NAL this week, while the per cent. of cioudi-
ness has exceeded the average.
This has been better week for the Kansas
farmer than for some weeks past, as, over a
large part of the state, he has been able to
get into the corn fields with the cultivator.
While the rains prevented, in a large meas
ure, the harvesting of wheat in the southern
tier of counties, yet no damage accrued to
the crop. From present indications wheat
harvest will begin as far north as Reno, Har-
vsy and Allen this week, with ripen-
ing fields In the next tier of counties north;
it has begun in KIngman, Sedgwick and
Butler. While the weather mas been rather
cool for corn and the sorghums, yet, in gen.
eral, those crops has held their own, and in
some favored localities corn Ii doing excep-
tionally we'll.
Continued cloudy weather since
9Th; northeasterly winds most of the time;
wheat filing rapidly, very few fields suffer-
ing for the harvester; corn and oats growing
rapidly; sunshine the coming week will do
much good.
Edwards-Cool and cloudy; wheat, rye,
and all small grams, grass and fruits look
we'll, but corn is backward.
Ford (Bucklin) -The recent rains revived
late wheat, but early pieces have gone back,
and some are being plowed and put in corn;
some farmers report wheat destroyed by
worms similar to corn worms.
Gove-Everything is In fine condition ex-
cept corn, sorghum and rice corn; too cool;
plenty of moisture; new potatoes larger than
hens eggs; wheat and rye fine, good a. can
be-; the best pastures in ten years.
Greeley-Almost every morning has been
foggy and damp; corn is growing little if
flied by the cool damp weather, the high
winds dries up the moisture very fast.
Harvey-Too wet to pillow corn; wheat ma
turing slowly, flies bad in some fields, aver
age will be good, quality same: cherries in
abundance, all other fruit very promising;
wheat cutting has commenced.
Kingman-New potatoes are IN market;
wheat harvesting has begun; oats look well
and wheat was never better.
Lane-Wheat and rye continue to grow,
wheat that was considered too short to save
will all be long enough to bind: all crops do
ing we'll, never was such q show for large
crops of all kinds except corn, and we do not
promise of more rain.
Ottawa-The cool, cloudy weather has
been good for the wheat, while it has not
been detrimental to the corn only a. 1t has
delayed work, giving the weeds q chance;
but very few days when the ground was dry
enough to work.
Pottawatomie-Win wheat is fine; fax
Is splendid; oats and corn good color, but do
not grow fast in some places corn is under
water and looks yellow; little warmer with
more sunshine will give Us the finest crops
for years.
Rilev-Tho cool. rainy weather has been
detrimental to the grUw.E of corn.

The Ruby mountains being higher
and having "a far greater precipitation
OF moisture north of Hastings Pass
than south, the ranches are closer
together, and agriculture is carried
on more extensively than ia Hunting
ton district. Owing to Inc poor
market for their produce though, the
ranchers place most of their depend
ence upon their stock, aud far less
land il now cultivated than formerly,
a large part Of the grain lands being
seeded to hay. There are aoout 65,-
600 acres OF agricultural land in the
valley. OF this. amount 5000 acres
are now under Irrigation; nearly 20,-
QUO acres more might be irrigated by
the waters now flowing to waste and
by storage; and the remainder, al .
though good land, 1T is not likely
sufficient water could be stored for it,
The greater part of the lands now
irrigated, or that could be irrigated,
belong to the first group--that is,
lands over which the climatic con-
ditions are such that fruits aud Vege-
tables az we'll as cereals and hay can
De raised. 1t must be kept in mind
that the quality of the soil has less
to do WITH the agricultural possiUIil-
ties in this county, or State, than the
climate. In &act We have good soil
every place; and water and skillful
use Of water and climate is what ia
needed to prove to outsiders that We
have a rich country, rich both in
agrlcultural' aud mineral RESOURCES,
Tnere are about twenty ranches in
tne valley. The best land under Gull
tlsation lays on the benches betw cen
the streams, and near the foot of the
mountains. The ground slopes very
rapidly where this land is, the fall
beng on an average Of over two hpn-
dred feet to the mile.
