State Commissioner of Agriculture,
John Robinson to-day issues in the Agrl-
cultural Bulletin his annual review OF
the crop outlook of the State, in which
he saws: "The condition of the crops
as tabulated from numerous correspon-
derCe show an unusual low condition
throughout the State. From an extensive
personal observation / am forced to the
conclusion that the percentages arrived
at are not too low, and that the cotton
crop of the State is the poorest grown for
the last ten years and probably for a lon
ger period. The year 1892 has been an
Unusual one for excuses in temperature.
1t has been unusually cold and Excess
sively hot. an exceedingly wet season
was followed by destructiyely dry
weather of long duration. Upon the
whole the present outlook is anything Dut
encouraging to the producer OF farm
nroducts"

Wires Became Foul.

About Q o'clock last evening the fire
alarm wires of the city became tangled,
and the various alarm stations of the
city were treated to tappings that had
neither rhyme, sense nor reason about
them. The wires, it seems, fouled with
some other conveyors OF electricity, ana
hence the trouble. At The Times Office,
where through the courtesy of the fire
commissioners nm alarm station has been
placed. the Taper played a tune not UNI
ike some of Mr. Wagner's selections
