Taking DOnnelIy's Advice.

ST. PAUL, Sept. 14.-Railroad officials
in the general office of the Northwestern
lines say, so far as they can tell, that the
several circulars issued by differing au-
thorities of the Farmers alliance to the
farmers ~instructing them to sell or hold
their wheat are having little or no effect.
1t is probable that local circumstances
will generally determine the question
and that a vast majority of the farmers
will follow Donnelly's advice and use
their judgment regardless of circulars.
In Kansas and Iowa, where the farmers
are more Independent financially, 1t is
thought they will have a tendency to
hold their grain. But in the Dakotas
and western and northwestern Minneso-
Ia, where several poor seasons have
obliged tine farmers to borrow freely and
thus to practically mortgage their crop
in advance, grain will move as usual and
has already begun to do SO. The rail
roads say they are taking care of it easily,
although the movement is greater than
last year in proportion as the crop is
heavier.

When Gibbons came out for the third

more dash at his left cheek reopened the

shown to great advantage. His right

briefly. There were several clinches in
the fourth round and McAuliffe had de-

In the fifth round McAuliffe had his

right handlers on Gibbons jaw and Aus

New YORK, Sept. 1.-THE light weight
championship match between Jack Nc

tested tonight before the Granite asso-
citation Of Hoboken. The big building
will seat 5000 persons and it was filed

stake OF $500 a side as well. The whole
amount was to go to the winner.
When they weighed in McAulife tipped

weighed 1905 pounds.
Police Captain Hays and a dozen Off

4 Heavv veipbt of smolke.

The investigations of a society formed
in London to abate the smoke nuisance
afforded rather startling idea of the
wasteful extravaganza of the present sys-
tenn of combustion. Here is summary
of late report of the Smoke Abatement
institute; The weight of the smoke cloud
over the city is estimated at about fifty
tons of solid carbon and $50 tons of hydro
carbon and carbonic oxide gases. From
actual tests, the value of coal actually
wasted through the obstinacy of the
Cocl1neys is GO, PSI, 800, or AZ per cent. of
the amount expended for coal in London,
that being the percentage of heat that
escapes up chimney without warming
anybody. This waste also causes a use
less expenditure of e268, $50 for carting
coal, to say nothing of the wear and tear
of streets and of e43, 600 more for carting
away ashes.
Altogether. about 100000 is yearly
thrown away in London. Add to this
60 1000. 600 for injury to property from the
smoke laden atmosphere, and there is
shown a total of GA 800 900 which London
annually loses because of its failure to
burn coal under proper conditions. Nearly
all this waste and smoke could be pre-
vented by a general adoption of improved
methods of constructing chimneys, fire
places, furnaces and heaters.-Safety

day. The local bank was entered, the
vaults opened and about $4,000 in

outer door of the vault, but failed to
open the inside door. In the outside

$1,000 which the burglars carried off,
with 5000 pennies and several hundred
dollars of the banks currency. The
robbers were far in the lead of the
sheriff when the robbery was dis
covered.
