TO HOLD THEIR WHEAT
Farmers to 0rgauize and by Holding
Back their Wheat Get a Corner
on the Market.
A Destructive Hail Storm--.Jim Hills
Assistant to Quit---Condition Of the
San Francisco Wool Market.

ST. PAUL. Mimi, July 23.-St. Paul
has been made the headquarters of the
nasioaal movement by the united farm
ers' alliance to corner the entire wheat
of the country. At No. 237 Wabasha
avenue for several days a large force of
employees have been engaged in sending
out circulars with the view of having all
classes of farmers keep back their wheat
crop until prices have been advanced to
a high point.
The plan is to unite all farmers in a
gigantic wheat trust in which the pro-
ducers shall be stockholders and by
which spectators and wheat buyers will
be squeezed to the wall. George NJ.
Muller, editor of the State and promi-
nent alliance man is at the head of the
movement.
The wheat crop of the United States
for 1891 is estimated at 500 600, 600 BUSH
els. Promoters of the farmers truet be-
lieve that four-fifths of this can be held
back by the farmers from four to eight
weeks by which it is thought that prices
will have gone skyward. Circulars have
already been sent to the secretaries OF
alliances in all wheat growing states.

Here is an incident from the South

just after the Grippe had visited that
country. " / am a farmer, one of
those who have to rise early and
work late. AT the beginning of last
Winter l was on a trip to the City
of Vicksburg, Miss. where got we'll

who has since died, and he told me
to get a bottle of. Boschee's German
Syrup. Meantime my cough grew
worse and worse and then the Grippe

compelled me to do something.

"1he explosion OF the bombs had
scared the express messengers, and when
the robbers knocked with their revolvers
on the closed doors on the other side of

the doors. Express Messenger Murphy
said What do you want? You know
well. Throw up your hands
"Up went the hands. Get that box,

piled: There's nothing on the train to-
night Get down here out of the car

and his assistant, Cook Put up your
hands and hold them up was the next
order. Up went the hands OF Murphy
and Cook. Che robber covered Murphy,

working robber came aud helped the

too. He got I'm after them, holding h
revo yer on them all the time. / got
pretty tired of no ding my hands up and
lowered them little. The man On
guard saw this and delibe ately leveled
the shotgun at my eyes and coolly asked,
'Wil you ho.d up your hands? yelled,
Don't shoot!' and raised my hands again
"Then the robter inside the car put
the helper out and called for the messen-
ger. Murphy was helped In l don't
know what they did, for the man with

of Chicago shoe firm was on it, But,

BLOWING UP THE EXPRESS CAR

They followed us closely with guns or

back They turned us again and
marched Us along the track once more.

one OF them. We marched slowly back.
They did not follow us. To tell you the

detained us, ! think, about half an

"There was no bravery exhibited.
There was little show for any Two
robbers did the work. They secured

a Lake of Moss.

A remarkable freak of nature is found
among the hills of Delaware County,
New York, in sunken lake COVERING
about three acres of surface, which lies
between two parallel ridges not far from
the New York, Ontario IL Western Rail-
road The whole surface of the lake is
covered with a thick growth of moss
whose stems extend to an unknown
depth, but certainly further than the
arm can reach. Each tuft of the moss
is of different color from his neighbor,
so that the surface looks like that of a
beautiful colored carpet In walking
over the velvet surface the foot sinks
down few inches without encountering
the water, which is at least two feet be-
low the surface. Near the shore, in a
few places the water comes to the top.

Russian Submissiveness.

Nothing impressed Moltke, when in
Russia, more strongly than the devoted
submissiveness of the people, whether
soldiers or civilians. "The Russian" he
writes, "must positively have master;
if he has none, he sets himself to find
one. Each community chooses its starost,
or elder, from its white-haired mon,
else it would be like swarm of ices
without queen. Our land Is good, but
we have nobody over us. Come and
rule us Thus ran the message OF the
Russian Commons to Rurik the Varan-
gian. And SO it Is with the Russian
soldier. Without his captain he would
be in deadly perplexlty. Who would
think for him, lead him, or punish him?
His captain may possibly defraud him of
his due or ill-treat him in anger, but
nevertheless he loves him better than he
would German officer whose punish
ments are Just and well-consdered If
a European soldier were to see his non
commissioned officer drunk, discipline
would become impossible; but the Rus
sian puts him to bed, wipes him clean,
and obeys him as faithfully as ever on
the morrow when his fit is over"

Hot Drinks for Thirst.

1t is mistake to suppose that cold
drinks are necessary to relieve thirst.
Very cold drinks, as a rue, increase the
feverish, condition of the mouth and
stomach and 50 create thirst EXIeri-
ence shows it to be fact that hot
drinks relieve thu thirst and "cool off"
the tody when it is in an abnormally
heated condition better than ice-cold
drinks 1t is far better and safer to
avoid the use of drinks below 60 de-
grees; in fact, higher temperature is
to be preferred, and those who are not
much troubled with thirst will do well
to try the advantages to be derived from
hot drinks, instead of cold fluids to
which they have been accustomed. Hot
drinks have also the advantage of aiding
digestion, instead of causing debility of
the stomach and bowels
