Washington, April 10.-The condition
of winter wheat April l, as reported
to the department of agriculture aver
ages S6.7 per cent. for the entire
country. Last year the average was
ia. In 1892 it was S1.2, and 969 for
1891. The average for rye is 94.4 per
cent.
The averages for wheat for the prin-
cipal states are: Ohio 80; Michigan 80;
Indiana 80; Illinois ST; Missouri So;
Kansas u; Nebraska So; Iowa 81.
The average date Of seeding in the
Ohio and Mississippi valleys was late,
owing to dry weather. In general,
however, the conditions of the soil
were not favorable to planting and
termination. Very little damage is
reported from the Hessian fly. In the
eastern, northern and northwestern
states snow covering afforded pro
lection in addition to that Of mild TEN
perature.
Returns in regard to the effects upon
wheat resulting from the recent cold
snap, show that In the eastern and
northern states the injury is marked
and decided. In Ohio Indiana, Michi-
gan and Kentucky injury from FROST
ing Is considerable. In Kansas, Ne
braska and California the impaired
condition of the crop has not resulted
so much from frost as from cold, dry
weather
Chicago, April 10-There was a
show Of tirmness in wheat at opening
this morning, but it didn't last long.
Conditions have been getting more
beariSh and even the prospect of a
bullish government report could not
sustain the market. A half cent rally
followed Bradstreets statement of
statistical inaccuracies, probably be-
cause the market was in shape to
rally anyway.
Corn and oats have been strong

ness in wheat has had its influence
Speculation is getting more bullish,

ter prices generally are expected.
Provisions opened strong and prices
advanced sharply for pork and ribs
with short on the run. There was
reaction on realizing sales. We believe
prices to be about high enough for the
present.

Surrendered.

The small hand that clasped the
pony's bride tremhled and the sweet
girls face grew pale as death. No
wonder.
The shadows of night were begin
ming 10 fall. She was all alone in
that Southern pine forest. And
worse than all else-a storm was
coming. One of those swift, sudden,
semi tropical storms, which are liza
bic to burst upon one at short notice
-here in Southern Louisiana-and
leave desolation in its wake. The
girl knew all about them; she had
come through the crucible of expe-
ri-nce, for although ordinarily such
storms are infrequent, the year 1893
was prolific OF thtm
Eden taught the little school at
the old log school-house, some few
miles from the house, which for the
present she called home. A great
rambling old building on the bank
of a brawling river. Eden had
found quite comfortable quarters
with kind hearted Mr.. and Mrs.
Roberts. The girl had come from
the city, 100 miles away, for her
health, and having but a trifiing
share of this worlds goods-more-
over, being a friendless orphan
she had soon found herself "teach-
ing the Young idea how to shoot, "
and thus earning respectable liv-
ing.
All this time she had bt en- riding

exercise, ana educing order ont OF

ed her of her long ride home, and
she found the skies darkened with
the coming storm. On she galloped
with the pony seeming to compre-
hend the situation.
"Fly, TopSy." she cried, eagerly

swereJ her. Sharp flashes of light

Eden shnddered, but she shook
the bride over Topsy's back, and
urged her on /" greater speed.
Boom, boom! went the thunder;
one sharp, binding flash of light.
and the next thing that Eden knew
she was lying upon the ground and
"Topsy was out of sight"
Slowly she raised herself to a
sitting posture and gazed wildly
around her. There just before her
so close that it made her shudder
with horror-a giant pine lay prone
upon the ground, rent and splint-
cred with the lightning. Eden rose
to her feet.
Heaven protect meln she MUIR
INJURED.
With eager eyes she scanned her
surroundings, and, with feeling OF
terror, unspeakable, saw that every
thing was strange. She had lost
her way.
She had only lived in the pine
woods three mouths, and had never
learned the roads She knew the
way To the chool-house-that was
all, To her, as to most people rear
ed in cities, the monotonous forest

was all that Eden could say; but
her frightened little heart grew
warm with gratitude to her rescuer.
Dick reined in his horse before
picturesque brown cottage, the like
of which Eden had never seen be-
fore in that country. Long galleries
at the front and back, with French
windows opening upon them, and
making a shady retreat from the
suns rays, for the galleries were
covered with climbing roses and
honeysuckles. A gayly-colored ham
mock hung at one end OF the gallery,
low willow rocker stood near.
There was an air of comfort which
was almost luxury. A broad ball
ran through the center of the house,
hall whose bare floor was polished,
and with crimson rugs scattered
here and there. 1t was delightful

A tiny old lady, in a gray dress
and a spotless white apron, received
them. 1t was Dicks mother, and
to her he told Eden's story
Mrs. Hargrave received her with
open arms. She brought her into a
comfortable bedroom, provided a
change of clothing, gave her warm
drink and disposed of her upon the
sofa in the big hall until Dicks re-
turn. For he had driven through
the storm and darkness to the home
of the Roberts to explain Eden's
unexpected absence.
The next morning found the girl
quite i'll. For a week she was
i nursed as tenderly as though she
were princess by Mrs. Hargrave's
kindly hands.
Before the week was over Eden
Adair had learned to know her own
heart. To her surprise, Dick Har-
grave reigned there, king.
"But he has ceased to care for me, y

slowly and painfully to the open

I'll bring you safe to Roberts'-sho'l
But somehow, with the wonderful
intuitions which God has given to
women as a veal pom of self-defense,
Eden, full of apprehension, shrank
back, trembling and afraid. Better

the driving storm, than to trust
herself to this human VIOLIN sleeps

"No, sir. [ will walk, Good-even-

She moved onward step ortwo,
but her fall had bruised her delicate
body, and she saw at once that
walking was out Of the question.
And night was fast falling down.
With a hoarse laugh the man
sprung from his horse.
No, you don't, my fine ladyl" he
cried. 1--WE had, my eyes on you
this many day. I'm going to take
you home with me and you'll be my
wife afore to morrer's sun setsP
He threw his arms about the
shrinking girl and attempted to lift
her onto the back Of his horse.
With wild shrek Eden struck
at him with her clenched hand,
calling aloud, and yet feeling that
it was madness at that hour, and
in the storm, to expect any passer-
by.
But lust at that moment the sound
Of wheels fell upon the air, and a
light wagon turned bend in the
road. And then-Eden never knew
exactly how-in a short time she
was safe in the wagon at the side OF
Dick Hargrave.
Dick Hargrave! A noble-looking
face, with dark grey eyes and firm
mouth; the very man who one
month ago had had the temerity-
the audacity, so Eden had called il
to ask her to be his wife. OF
course, she had refused him, Just a
little haughtily, for he was "only a
pine woods farmer" That he was
educated and refined she could not
deny, but the distance between them
socially, seemed very great. He
had borne her rejection with out
ward resignation, and Eden had
never met him since. But if ever
she felt glad to see human heing
in her life, Eden Adair was unfeign-
edly glad to see Dick Hargrave.

She could say no more. He had
her in his arms now, close to his
breast, murmuring sweet and tender
words in her ears.
Mrs. Hargrave went out and
closed the door. The citadel had
surrendered.

salary of 81, 900 per annum. The REG
IsTER is pleased to note the success Of
the students of this institution. A
great many people of the state still
carry the idea that the agricultural
college is no good, but the fact is that
no other institution in the state has
turned out so many practical and use

graduation, step into prominent and
lucrative positions.
