HaZeltQn. to the Wichita Eagle, dated
May Sth: I'm conversation with the
business men of Hazelton, we were
furnished the following statement,
and, to more thoroughly establish it as
matter of face, it was given out by
one of the trustees of Hazelton town
ship: There are now in fine condition
200 acres of wheat, 2,100 acres of corn,
500 acres of oats and 220 acres OF alfal-
ia. Now just TO figure on the wheat
alone, to say nothing about the balance
of the crops: Seventy-two hundred
acres of wheat, it is safe to say, at the
present writing will average 20 bushels
per acre, making IA, 900 bushels in one
township. There ale IA quarter Sec
tions in the township, and according to
the above estimate, which is altogether
in the bounds of reason, there are 1000
bushels of wheat for every farmer in
this township; and this sold at IS cents
would bring each and every farmer
$3.50. Is there one man in a hundred
that stops to think of the magnitude
of the growing crops, or the great broad
field of success that we are about to
enter, where six miles square deliver
over to the people Sos, 600 in cash. The
above estimate may not be a safe one
for the state over; yet, after riding
through several thousand acres in
southern Kansas, your correspondent
is we'll satisfied that we will realize as
above stated, unless some Unforeseen
calamity befalls the wheat fields, or Tho
steam threshers choke down. The very
natural question that presents itself is
Where on earth is the country that of
fers better advantages for homeseeker!
than than does southwestern Kansas

On the War Path.

The St. Johns Herald has the follow ing account of warlike Indians "The Black Range, published at Chloride, New Mexico, reports that the tracks of six Indians have been seen between Chloride and Hermosa, and that last week young man named Theodore Phillips was shot at by an Indian three miles from the Silver Monument mine, which is not far from Chloride. Luckily for the young man the first bullet missed him, and when he looked where the shot came from and saw an Indian he skipped cut and succeeded in getting to the mine. The next morning the miners went to where the shooting oc- cured and found where the Indian had been in ambush, but the ground was so dry the trail could not be followed. It is little early for the pets to be out, but this is probably scouting party sent out to look the country over and see how the water is. Around Chloride, Hermosa, Hillsboro and Lake Valley is the old stamping ground of Victorio and Mana. There are too many whites in that section now, and we think it would be rather unhealthy for any small rowing band of Indians."
