loaded, and had in his possession
also tallow candle-suspicious look
ing implements of trade. He is de-
tanned at police headquarters.
Officer Ryan had an interview with
strange appearing individual on
Third avenue this morning whose
chief difficulty seemed to be in get
ting along under the influence of
hops in their various stages, and he
was so laden down with cargo of
bread that he couldn't hop worth a
cent after all. The officer helped
him on his way.
The telephone system in connec-
ton with the fire and police alarm
boxes is now complete, and the ordi-
nary telephone was removed from
police headquarters this morning
There is no change in the general
way of calling the station. however
you get it through the central
office as heretofore, but there is the
additional advantage to the depart
ment of having the private arrange
ment of its own. which, by the way,
works admirably.

Fishing on the Pacific Coast

The oldest industry of the Atlantic
coast, the fisheries, is the newest indus
try of the Pacific Until a few years
ago the fishermen on the northern coasts
of California paid no attention to the
vast quantities of sturgeon and halibut
there, regarding them as worthless, and
it is only within two or three years that
the majority of places further north and
down the southern coast now making
money in fish have paid any attention
whatever to the industry.
Last year 5000. 600 pounds of sturgeon
were taken from the Columbia river and
shipped east. and altogether 100 or so
carloads of his one kind of fish went
east from that region. In the last year
or two there have been large discoveries
of halibut in Alaskan and other north
ern waters, and salmon are getting
more plentiful in the streams of that re-
gion. Los Angeles and other southern
California points have within year or
so become great shippers of fish to the
east, barricudas and yellow tails being
the chief varieties.

CROP CONDITIONS.
Agricultural Reports Concerning Illinois
and Iowa Grains.

The Illinois crop bulletin for the
week ending Aug. 16, is appended in
full:
The temperature of the past seven
days has been about the normal in
the northern and central, and slight
ly above the average in the southern
counties. The percentage Of sun
shine has been about the normal.
Rain occurred over the state on the
10th and lIth, and while quite heavy
in some localities, was generally
badly distributed, many sections re-
ceiving none. In the northern d.
vision, the rainfall ranged from 90
to O.Sl inches; in the central divis-
ion, from a trace to 0.75 inches, and
in the southern division, from 90 to
2.29 inches. Where rain fell corn
has been somewhat benefited, and
some correspondents are of the opin-
ion, that while it has been greatly
injured by the drouth, reasonable
rains from this on and a favorable
fall will give a good yield yet In
some sections. many fields are re-
ported injured beyond redemption.
In the vicinity of Rome, Peoria coun-
ty, it is reported that large per-
centage of corn stalks have not
emblance OF an ear, and the largest
corn in some fields is little more in
size than the nubbins of favorable
seasons. Pastures have also been
slightly benefited by the late rains,
but owing to the hard condition OF
the ground more is badly needed
Threshing of grain is still progress
ing, and in many sections has been
finished. Farmers are still feeding
stock in many localities. Grasshop-
pers are seriously injuring vegeta-
ton throughout the state. In Sang
anon, Boone, Scott, Morgan, Macou-
pin, Montgomery and Champaign
counties, they have seriously injured
young clover. Owing to drought,
many farmers are oblighed to haul
water for stock. Apples are still
falling from the trees in many local
tiles. Potatoes will be short crop.
The Barnhill, Wayne county, CORES
pondents says: Anthrax is raging
here and has killed many cattle,
horses and hogs

The Iowa crop report states that
showers have been abundant in some
sections Of the state and deficient in
others. In the greater part of the
state there is promise of an aver
age crop OF corn. The damage to
the potato crop is nominal. The
threshing yield of oats is so to 60
per acre average; wheat II bushels
to the acre, much of it of light
weight; winter wheat, 235, 900 acres,
average yield IA bushels, quality
good. The total wheat product is
estimated at 224 $50 bushels.

Heroic Railroad Men.

Every time wreck train goes out on
one of the branching lines and comes
back with 4 load of splinters and junk
the '.boys" at the junction have some
thing to talk about for week. They
never become excited over a smashup
and list of injured, but when it hap
pens the old fellows are reminiscent for a
day or two the youngsters who pull
out every second day in close cabs and
on top of icy freight cars are unusually
thoughtful.
There is something soldierly in the
quiet heroism of railroad men who have
known danger and expect to die some
day under heap of box cars. You re-
alize this when you get next to them and
find what kind of men they are under
the plaid jackets and coal dust. And
you like them better when you know
them well.-Chicago News-Record.

THE STREAM OF LIFE.

Like small streamlet on q mountain side.
A white thread glancing in the summer sun.
Lightly down leaping with a joyous spring,
So passes happy childhood's playful hour.
Next, Through green dells AID meath o'ershad-
owing crags,
The growing stream with needless flow winds
on,
Now gladly lingering round some glowing isle
That smiles with heavenly beauty and allures
With promise Of perpetual delights:
Now fercely dashing down some rough cas-
cadc.
Where rushing waters split on hostile rocks,
Spouting aloft the iridescent spray
Drifted in sunless clefts by swaying winds:
So pass the years of youth. Our ripper age
Is like the broadened rivers stately march,
Whose current slackens, yet admits no pause,
But passes field and coppice, tower and town,
Not wholly 'scaping from defiling stains,
Yet toiling onward restlessly. AdOwn
Its smooth yet ever sliding stream we haste,
Nor mark the progress of its quiet speed,
Till, faster rushing as it nears the end.
1t sweeps Us onward in resistless course
Through the torn rapids Of disease and pain,
Till. plunging down the cataract of death,
We glide into vast and unknown space
The boundless ocean of eternity.
