Leroy Reporter: The Missouri Pa
clfic is constructing twenty-five.stal

buildings and shops of sufficient capa-
city to employ about 500 men. Al

Leroy.
Mcpherson Republican: There were
six extra freight trains on the Rock Is.
land yesterday. There are from three
to four extra every day now, it requir-
ing that many to move the wheat crop
along it's line. With all the extras the
road cannot furnish cars and move the
crop as fast as desired. Grain cars are
very short. Five of yesterdays trains
were ir Mcpherson at one time.
Atchison Champion: Local rassen-
ger traffic ID light, but the railroads are
points. The trans from the east are
now loaded with passengers every morn
ing. The Hannibal & st. Joseph has
brought more passengers into Atchison
this week than it has for correspond.

Of them goout on the Central Branch
to look for locations.

STOCK AND FARM.

Cawker City Timee: G. w. Stoddard
raised this year 10000 bushels Of wheat,
Of which $4,000 bushels belonged to
himself.
Atchison Globe: Amos Howell, big
farmer living near Huron, has leased
400 acres of bis land for three years at
81, 400 per year. He will probably come
to Atchison to live.
Topeka Capital: George CLARK, q
fasner living southwest of the city, had
fine span of mules struck by lightning
and instantly killed. They we're grazing
in a pasture near a wire fence, and were
found lying side by side.
Minneapolis Messenger: We know
of two boys in this county, one of them
aged II and the other IA years, who
have plowed, planted and cultivated 100
acres Of corn this year. It is in splendid
condition, free from weeds, and is bound
to net the youngsters handsome sum
for their work.
Richfeld Monitor: Wheat, il not
turning out as much per acre as was ex-
pected, owing to the severe dry weather
during the early part of the season.
However, it is making fair yield con.
siderlng the chance it had, and the peo-
pie are confident that this portion of
Kansas is going to be the greatest small
grain producing section Of the state.
Norwich News: A. w. Tooley in
formed us that the lightest yield Of
wheat he had threshed so far was twenty
bushels per acre and the highest thirty.
three. This we presume can be taken
as fair indication Of the crop in this
section. He has been out with his
machine several weeks, and most likely
has threshed some of the best as well
as some of the poorest fields in this
vicinity.

 It appears that Argenfenil is within easy access by rnil from Paris, and also possesses the coat said to have be- longed to Christ, and arrangements were promptly made for the exhibit of the relic. Sunday was chosen as the opening day, several days ahead of the first public view at Treyes. Crowds went from Paris and other localities to see the holy yestment.
 The exhibition was in every way sue cessful, and is said to have caused prcportionate chagrin at Treyes, which will probably lose multitude of the expected French Cathohc visitors.
 The preparations for the public ex- intuition in Treyes are going on hur- riedly, and will be completed within the appointed tine.

Now that the whole ocean is mapped out for us, there is no oiger any TO- nance in hidden ocean depths, The Atlantic, we are told, if drained, would be vast plain, with mountain range ip the middle running parallel with our coast Another range crosses 1t from Newfoundland to Ireland, on the top of which lies the submarine cable. The ocean is thus divided into three great basins, no longer 'unfathomed dcpths.s ? The tops of these sea mountains are two miles bolow . sailing ship, and basin almost five miles.

The fact that this country is now ex- porting silver, not in large quantities, 1t Is true, but nevertheless sufficient to be noticed has caused some surprise.

 At first the silver required by Portu- gal was found in Europe, but the avail able supply being speedily exhausted, 1t became necessary tU draw upon Amer ica.
