caused by congestion Of the lungs,
brought about by a severe cold contracted
while hunting. The Duke Of Clarence
was member of a party which was
shooting over some covers situated
long distance from Sandringham
Hall. At luncheon he complained Of not
feeling as well as usual. was seen to

The chief statistician has computed
that Iowa leads all other States in the
value of the three principal cereals pro-
duced in 1891, and in this sense is the
first agricultural State in the Union.

oats OF last year was S154, 900 900, tho
value Of her corn crop alone being
placed at sos ,O0O, 900, of her oats crop
at S27, 100000 and her wheat crop at
$22, ,0OO, 900. The chief statistician
points out that the value Of these crops
was equal to $50 for each inhabitant OF
the State of Iowa.
Illinois was the second agricultural
State in the Union in 1891, with an
aggregate value of the three cereals Of
$l4S, 100000, as follows: Corn, $751;
100000; wheat, $30,00O,0 900; oats, $751;
