Secretary Noble, as the head of
the Department under which the
United States Geological Survey
works, was selected as the proper
person to deliver the address of well
come to the members of the Inter
national Congress of Biologists,
now holding its fifth triennial session
in this city, and the selection was
we'll made. as his address was an ex-

the administration for which he
spoke.
It raised broad smile in Wash
ington when Representative Crisp
said that the contest for the Speaker
ship was friendly one Mr. Crisp
may be friendly in his feeling to-
wards his opponents, but they, or
rather their representatives are GER
tainly not friendly towards him,
when they are running around abus-
ing him and trying to create the i'm
preston that he is the friend of all
the Democratic lobbyists and that he
will be under their control if elected.
This is particularly true of those
who are working for Mr.. Mills they
are doing everything except charg-
ing personal crookedness to bring
bring discredit upon Mr.. Crisp. and
they are doing that by inference by
saying that he has promised more
committee chairmanships than exist,
for the purpose of obtaining pledges
of support. If this be a friendly
contest, pray. what would Mr.. Crisp
call an unfriendly contest?

GREAT CROPS !!
Three H arvest Excursions.

The bountiful crops of the IVES
tern States are great sights for the
farmers of the East to behold, and
the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe
R. r. is not only willing but anxious
to have the farmers visit Kansas,
Indian Territory, Oklahoma, Texas,
Colorado, New Mexico, Utah. see
the abundant yield and buy home
in the west. Land is cheap, and for
the price of a farm in the East you
can buy enough to give large farm
to each member of your family.
August 25th, September 18th and
September goth are the three dates
selected upon which Excursion
Tickets will be sold to all points
specified below at Cheap Rates.
The excursion tickets will be sold
in Chicago, St. Louis and points in
the state of Illinois, Iowa and
Missouri on the lines of the Santa
Fe Route And it is probable that
railway lines east of Chicago and
St. Louis will also sell at these re-
duced round-trip rates. The tick
cts will be sold only on these three
dates, and will be good for return
for thirty days from the date of sale.
They let you stop over at any point
west of Kansas City or St. Joseph.

Many Of our citizens attended the
circus at Racine on Tuesday after
noon. The fair will also attract a
great many this week, and all have
now an opportunity to enjoy them
selves.
A number of sportsmen came out
on Sunday last and enjoyed them
selves with dog and gun. The
farmers are here yet and are ready
to give these Sunday sportsmen
directions as to the shortest cut out
of town free of charge.
Mr.. Joseph Bishop comes to the
front with what we believe to be the
heaviest yield of potatoes in this
vicinity. A piece of land near his
harm was planted to potatoes and
Welded at the rate Of 400 bushels
an acre. This plainly shows what
good land is good for.
For a few weeks we have noticed
in the columns of the Racine papers
accounts of the movement that is
being taken by the good citizens OF
that city to compel the saloons to
close their doors on Sunday. We
earnestly hope that the good work
will go on and may they be success
full in winning for all Sabbath OBJ
servers day of peace and quietness.
The grain is all stacked, and now
the majority of farmers are watch
ing the newspapers that they may
post themselves as to the move
ments of jack frost, which has done
so much damage in the northwest.
Corn is doing as well as can be ex-
pected with the cold nights, and if
frost holds off for few days some
of the early varieties will De well

Weekly Crop Bulletin of the Wisconsin
Weather Service.

The week ending Saturday, Aug.
Goth has been an extremely unfavor-
able one for corn. On the 22d, 23d
and 24th and again on the 27th, frost
occurred in the northern and western
portions of the state. In the north
portion and extending south into the
central part of the state as far as
Juneau, Adams and Wood counties,
the frost was mostly of killing
nature. In Grant, Crawford, Yer
non, Lacrosse, north part of Sank
and northern Iowa counties it was
light. 1t barely touched the north
! west boundary of the tobacco region
and no damage to speak of was done
to that crop.
Good soaking rains put an end to
the drouth in the tobacco region, and
the plant is looking well. 1t fully
meets the promises of the early sea
son. Nearly one-fourth Of the crop
is in the shed and the harvest is well
under way. All available help will
now be used to push the harvest
work.
Corn was seriously damagead1 r.
northwest half of the state. In MAJ.
of the northern and also in Juneau,
Adams and Wood counties ice form
ed. Up to this time the crop seemed
very certain to be a poor one, and a
conservative estimate, based upon
the reports of numerous correspond
ents in the affected region, is that
the frost destroyed Is per cent. of
the crop in the northwest part of the
state. Buckwheat suffered to about
the same extent in the same region.
Cranberry growers were the great
est sufferers. Fully three-fourths of
the entire crop of the state was fro
zen and destroyed. About the only
part of the crop that was saved was
in the marshes that were flooded.
The marshes in the Green Bay
region escaped with little or no
damage.
The drouth remains unbroken in
the central and northern part of the
state, and potatoes are less promis-
ing. A few weeks ago very large
yield was promised; now it is not
probable that it will reach the aver
age. The soil is not moist enough
for blowing.

The fourth and last edition Of
Sinbad at the Chicago Opera House
was presented last Sunday nigat.
The big spectacle, which has run SO
successfully all summer, on that oc-
casion received the changes in cast
and incident which put it in the form
in which it will be seen during the
coming travelling season. For two
weeks past constant rehearsals have
been held to familiarize the new
corners in the company. Fanny
Beane and Dan Hart, with the char
acters which they assumed for the
first time last Sunday evening; those
of Maraschina and Nlcolo. The
features which go to make the fourth
edition are song and chorus enti-
tied Society" a parody on GIVE

new song by Henry Norman entitled
"a Great Big Bluff" and a topical
song called ooh What a Difference
in the Morning" Fanny Beane, who
has reputation of being one of the
best lady dancers in the country,
does dancing speciality with Eddie
Foy, and Foy has been substituted
Spencer Gracey in the duel scene in
the last act. The Ballet also has a
new ensemble, which was written by
w. H. Bachelor Next week will be
the last of Sinbad's summer season,
and the necessity for its departure
will undoubtedly be much regretted
by the management, as its business
throughout its entire run has been
simply phenomenal, surprising that
done by every other Chicago Opera
House spectacle. There has been
no drop in the receipts either during
the closing weeks, but on the con-
trary, they have been larger than
lever.

A Connecticut Molder Who Can Play with
Molten Metal with Impunity.
BRIpaEpoRr, Conn, Jan. 21.-Louis Bon
nier, a molder at the foundry Of Landon g.
Co., is r salamander. Yesterday he sat
.sauarely down i'll a tub of motion metal,
while the men were pouring it Off" His
companions rushed to his rescue, dragged
him out and expected to see his flesh burned
from the bones. Instead, Bonnier brushed
of what remained of his charred clothing
and exhibited his skin, white and free from
burns. The men cannot explain why
he WAS not horribly injured. The theory
OF perspiration, which often saves moulders
from painful blisters, does not apply in
this case, because BONNER sat in the metal
long enough to have the effects of any mois-
ture of the body overcome. The French
man met with a similar accident some time
ago. The handle of II ladle of molten metal
he was carrying broke and u quantity Of the
fiery liquid went into his shoe. He hast
ened to a tubo of water, intending to Jump
into it. On the way the hot mass burned
its way through the sides Of his shoe. A
fellow-workman pulled the shoe of, and to
the surprise of all, not a soorch was found
the flesh.

Her solemn organ fills the place
With s0unds that set the spirit free.
The lily is her flower, and meek
Her look IL, as the f1ower's own;
She hath no color in her cheek;

The queen OF Italy wore II costume of
extraordinary magnitcenoe at the recent
opening of the Italian parliament. The
dress was of violet satin, exquisitely em-
broidered, over whiohlwas thrown u short
violet velvet mantle of Il slightly darker
shade. The bonnet was OF forget-me-not
blue velvet, covered with gold lace and
adorned with a plume of pale blue feathers,
fastened with an immense pearl and dia-
mond clasp. The queen also wore ear
rings of pearls and diamonds, and such
ropes of pearls" in three rows, as would
have enchanted Lothian.
