ENGLISH WHEAT CROP,
1t Has Greatly Improved During the
Past Six Weeks.


Past Six Weeks.
LONDON, Aug. 16. - The Marklane
Express says that the English wheat
crop has improved half a million quar-
ters in six weeks, and the total is ex-
pected to be s,25O,OO0. Nevertheless,
the wheat crop is below the average, the
barley crop is very near the average and
of better quality than usual, oats are
nearly 10 per cent under the average.
The supply of English wheat is better
than usual in August. In some mar
kets the price is six pence lower, but
the general range for clear wheat is
from thirty to thirty-two shillings for
red and thirty-two to thirty-four shill-
ings for white. Indian corn from Amer
lea has advanced three pence, and Rus
sian is six pence lower. Other foreign
cereals are virtually unchanged. The
official estimate of the Russian yield is
35,0OO,0OO bushels, but this is discredit-
ed by the trade.

Counting the Electoral Vote.

The act of Congress, passed in
1887, regulating the counting of the
votes cast 10y the electoral colleges of
the States for President and Vice
President is an important bulwark
against such Il scheme As that enact
ed in 1876. Such a piece of Jug
glery is no longer possible, and the
possession Of the House of Represen
tatiyes by the democrats makes them
safe from any sharp practices in the
count. The act of 1887 provides for
the settlement of contests in the
electoral vote by the States them
selves wherever they have provided
by law for such settlement, and that
the State decision shall be conclu-
siye and final. The electoral vote of
no State, where but one lawful re-
turn has been received, can be re-
jected Where there is more than
one return from a State, that re-
turn signed by electors whose APP
pointment shall have been duly Ger
titled by the State executive and du-
~ attested shall he counted, unless
thrown out by the concurrent vote
of both houses of Congress.
The two houses of Congress meet
on the second Wednesday in Febru-
airy to canvass the vote, and the an.
nouncement of the result, where a
candidate has majority, is a sufli-
cient declaration of the election of
that candidate. The election Of
1890 not only gave the House of
Representatives to the democrats,
but the Governors of most of the
doubtful States and all the demo
cratic States except Connecticut.

An Astonishing Piece of Knayery

The slickest piece of kuavery ever

expecting to be absent three days. On
the second day he returned, stating that
he must have at once 1000, 900 francs,
with which to close an important trans.
action he had on hand. There was not
so much cash in the vaults, and he at

banks TO supply 1t. Not soul suspected

The two great wonders of London are
its aristocracy and its fog. Just now
there is lull OF aristocratic scandal Of
high grade, and so the twin wonder, the
fog, is the uppermost topic OF discus
sion. The President of the Institute of
Civil Engineers has discovered that the
fog is worth its weight in gold, or at
least in sulphur. He says that the sui
phurious vapors produced by coal com.
bustion in London, in one day, is equiva.
lent to $50 tons Of pure sulphur. This
gaseous mass, mingling with the fog,
"deodorizes and disinfects the air, de-
stroying disagreeable smells emanating
from refuse and sewers, killing disease
germs" etc. On the other hand, the
chief medical journal of London, while
partially admitting this argument, de-
clares that the sulphurious fog attacks
the lungs, "briuging on bronchitis and
asthma, to say nothing of disagreeable
taste, filthy smell, stuffed nose, husky
throat, smarting eyes and headache" II
is pretty evident that there is not much
choice between the moral and the physi'
cal atmosphere of London.

The value of the Hudson River as an
attraction and an advertisement for the

a writer for the New York Mail and Ex-

standpoint. 1t is certainly worth mil

Hudson with the Rhine. General Pas.

INQUIRE of him sometimes, after they have
made the trip from New York to Albany,
along the banks OF the Hudson: "Why
don't YOU call this river the American
Rhinel" Mr.. Daniels reply is: "Why
don't they call the Rhine the German
Hudsonl" The writer said to Mr.. Daniels
that IL there we're no Hudson River the
freight traffic of his railroad would be
largely increased and he sstonished him
by making this reply. "But for this
river and the Erie Canal, 1t would be
impossible for the enormous grain crop
of the West to reach the seaboa I'd. Oul
railroads could not transport 1t. 1t would
be necessary for the people of the West
to keep it, or to burn it. The railroads

Chinese Ignorance About Am nrica.

"What they get for itl"

A Bears Natural Batht ub.

II. N. Price, Washington State land
''cruiser," who has just returned from
trip through the unsettled parts of
Clarke and Cowlitz Counties, reports
bears quite plentiful in the wilds of
those counties. He and his brother ran
into a regular bears bathtub on the top
of ridge several miles back from the
Cowlitz River. A great dr tree fully
six feet across had burned within two
feet of the ground, aud the centre had
also been burned to depth of two or
three feet and the rains of winter had
filled 1t with water. Lsading up to this
natural bathtub was a well-beaten bear
track and the animals must have made
frequent visits to the tub, for its bottom
contained the settings Of dirt washed of
by Bruin during his many baths. When
the Price brothers saw the trail 1t was
still wet from recent visit OF old
Bruin. n.-Ssn Francisco Examiner.

There are 5000, 900 acres of cultivable
lands, of which 4, 1875, 600 acres can be

Agriculturist the farmers feel keenly the
competition Of the farmers in Russia,
