The effort which is being made by
the federal department Of agriculture
10 push the sales OF American corn in
Europe deserve the commcndation OF
tho whole people. just at present the
agent Of the department. Is at work in
Germany, and some success in his en-
dcavOrs In that quarter is looked Tor
with great confidence by the govern
ment He Is To continue his task, 1t Is
understood, for year or two yet; and
IN doing this he Is TO consult with the
principal grain importers and CONNER
rial bodies in the leading importing
countries OF Europe. There are rea-
sons 10 expect good results from this
missionary work. Corn has qualities
which can not fail to mako IL popular
on the other side Of the Atlantic
when they arc fairly understood.
1t is nutritious and cheap, and
can DO prepared for the table
in more appetizing fashion
and In greater vaciety OF ways
than any other cereal. When its good
points are thoroughly learned and ap-
perciated abroad the demand for IL must
immensely and permanently increase.
Among the poorer classes OF continen-
tai Europe. who rely on rye chiefly,
corn must prove highly acceptable when
once its virtues are made known. 1t
will be Il good substitute for rye when
that product, as at present becomes
scarce and dear, and when a fair chance
is offered for it TO reveal itself, 1t will
probably 20 large degree displace rye
among those TO whom cheapness In
the selection OF food is tho prime con-
sideration.
The benefit which would come TO the
country from the opening OF new
markets for corn are obvious enough TO
be understood by all intelligent persons.
IL Is, in monetary .nse, the most i'm
portant Of the products OF the soil Of the
United States. lis value largely exceeds
that OF wheat, hay Cr cotton, which are
aside from corn, our leading agri-
cultural crops Until recently the
sale OF corn was virtually Te-
stricted 10 this country. Only C signif-
icant portion OF the annual yield has
been sent abroad. Even in 1889, when
the yield here was larger than itever was
before or since, and when expectation
reached tho highest figure In the aggre-
gate IL ever touched, the proportion ofthe
exports amomted to only 4.00 per cent Of
the years crop. while our foreign sales
OF wheat were over % per cent In the
same year. These facts will show the
advantages 10 the country which the
introduction OF corn into Europe on
scale commensurate with our
facilities for producing II would bring.
We can enlarge our yield In an import
ant degree whenever the demand war
rants H. Low prices In recent years
have kept the output down TO a much

been reached, but II our markets abroad

Alarming Increase Of Crime Among the

Alarming Increase OF Crime Among the
Young--Causc and Prevention.
Tho following extracts from tho an
nual address OF President Alexander
HogelrrA before the national conven
tion Of the National Boys and Girls
Homo Employment association, held in
Topeka last week:
"All rehecting persons have for years
past, known that crime among youths
and minors was on the increase, espec :
tally among our boys and young men.
10 prove this we will give some statIs-
tics. We have in the penitcntiaries In
the United States about 90, 900 c0nvicts,
the averages In sexes Is 100 males TO one
female: one-halt OF these are under 2l
years OF age; IS per cent sorve a second
term, and they are all recruited newly
every two years The cost OF arrest
and conviction, including timo, to the
state Is not less than 81. 900 each. 1t Ia
fact that while we have all tho ma
chinery OF legal character 'or punish
ing tho boy for wronq-doing, we have
no association for hunting him employ
ment.
Then again, we sell this time 10 tho
contractors at 40 cents per day 10 man
ufacture boots and shoes, doors, sashes.
blinds and other articles. All agree
that this keeps out OF employment
60, OO0 mechanics who have done no
wrong and who have learned some
trade In their boyhcod and possibly
haze families to support
''To the 30, 900 convicts referred TO,
we may add l6, 900 more, boys and girls
in our schools OF reform, while jails,
poor houses and warehouses will In
crease the number TO over 200, 900,
Then we have 30, 600 trnmps, one-half OF
whom are minors. Ten years ago these
tramps were all boys. IL Is fact not
generally known that all tramps begin
their lives as boys Recent investiga-
tions show that out OF l6,00O boys and
girls in the schools OF reform, ninety
eigh. out Of every hundred were sent
there from the towns.
THE chief causes assigned are lack
OF suitable home influences and employ
ment, reading dime rOvels, and show
bills OF scenes OF murder illustrated by
certain dramatic companies, lotteries,
games OF chance, use OF tobacco, hang
ing about saloons, theaters and l0-cent
shows, and falling nsewith all sorts OF
vile companions, out In the streets at
all hours OF the night; then follow potty
thieving and stealing their way on
trains from one city TO another"
Tho association aims 70 reach the
youth, and provide homes and employ
ment as the best means OF preventing
crime and OF saving expense TO the

FATALLY WOUNDED.
A Little Boy is Shot in the Head and
Fatally Injured.
a Sad Affair, that Should be a Les
son to All Who CarelessIy
Handle Firearms.

Y1opa Sesma, the little son of Ramon
Sesma, a Spaniard who gains a liveli-
hood for his family by doing laboring
work whenever he can secure employ
ment, was brought TO the Receiving Hos
pital yesterday afternoon with bullet in
his brain.
Reports as to how the little fellow was
shot differ, some claiming that it was
done accidentally, and others believing
that it was intentional on the part of the
boy who was with the Sesma lad when
the affair happened. The former story,
however, would seem to be the more
plausible, since both boys We're friends,
and in the habit of roaming about to-
gether.
HOW IT HAPPENED.
Ilopa Sesma lives with his parents on
Fourteenth and Y streets and is eleven
years old. He was playing on V street
yesterday afternoon about half-past four
O'Clock, when a playmate named Cyrus
Meyers, lad I3 years OF age, came along.
The Meyers boy had a cheap pistol in his
hand and said he was trying to shoot
some of the mudhenS in the ponds in
that vicinity. The boys talked together
for few moments when according to
the Meyers boys story he handed the
weapon to the Sesma boy. The latter
was about to catch hold of it, when the
pistol was discharged and the bullet
struck him in the middle Of the forehead,
ranging straight back and lodging in the
brain at the back Of the head.
PROBABLY FATALLY INJURED.
The City Physician was summoned as
soon as the boy arrived at the Receiving
| Hospital.
The wound was examined and two or
three pieces of bone We're taken from the
brain, but the bullet was not probed for.
| The little fellow was unconscious from
the time he was shot. and at last accounts
was i'll the same condition. 1T is thought
he cannot possibly recover, and his death
was momentarily expected early this
morning.
1t is said that an eyewitness to the af-
fair claims that the Meyers boy deliber-
ately stood Off from his companion and
fired at him. There were no powder
marks on the Sesma lads face, and this
story may possibly be true.
When officer Wagner went out to the
home of the boy who did the shooting, he
was refused admittance at first, but
finally persuaded the family to open the
door. Young Meyers was taken to the
police station and locked up in one Of the
cells

less than Diogenes' quest. One man is

suade girl to marry him; that middle
aged man is paying lawyers big money
to get a divorce. The Eastern man
wants to go West; the hungry and crop
