GOVERNMENT CROP REPORT.
Crops in Many Localities Reported as
Badly in Need of Rain.

The National weather bureau of
Washington, in its report of of
weather crop conditions for the
week ending June 10Th says: The
week ending June 10Th has been
much warmer than usual from New
England westward over the lake re-
gion, the Ohio and upper Mississippi
Valleys and the Dakotas. About
the normal temperature prevailed
from New York Southwark to
Florida and generally throughout
the Southern States, but it was
slightly cooler than usual on the
immediate coast. 1t was also cool
er than usual throughout the Rocky
Mountain and plateau districts and
over the greater portion of the Pa
cifc Coast States. More than the
usual amount of rain fell in Texas
and over the greater portions of
Kansas, Nebraska, Michigan, Wis
consin and New York. Small areas
of excessive rains were also reported
in the East Gulf states, Tennessee
South Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania
and South Dakota. The drought
previously reported in the North
western states has been broken by
recent rains, but small grain crops
have been permanently injured.
Drought has been partially relieved
in South Carolina and Georgia; but
along the South Atlantic Coast
south of Hatteras and in Florida
and Southern Georgia crop pros
poets are greatly impaired on ac-
count of the absence of rain, In
Kentucky tobacco plants are dying
from the effects of the drought, but
the conditions are favorable for
rain in that section today and to-
morrow, Light showers occurred
in Northern California, Oregon and
Montana, and the crops on the Pa
cifc Coast we're improved, but sun
shine and dry weather are needed
in the flooded regions Of Oregon.
Generally the week has been espec-
tally favorable to corn throughout
the central valleys, and crops have
made rapid growth in New Eng
land and the Middle Atlantic Stat

THE HOUSE PROGRAMME.

According to Washington dis
patches the leaders of Democratic
tariff reform forces, In the House,
are preparing to handle the tariff
bill with all possible expedition, when
that measure comes back to them
from the Senate. No exact pro-
gramme has yet been arranged but
plans have been matured sufficient
ly to satisfy those in charge of the
bill that there will not be another
long-drawn-out debate, If need
be a series of special rules will be
presented to close the debate on
various schedules, and then a final
rule to wind up the whole question,
Such a course will be adopted, how
ever, only in case the debate gives
promise of becoming interminable.
1t will not be used to limit reason
able discussion Of Senate changes,
Members of the ways and means
committee expect the bill to be re-
turned to the House within the
next ten days. Representatives
Turner and Tarsney, of the commit
tee, expect the bill to be back by
Saturday or Monday next. 1t is
expected, however, there will be
several days delay after the bill
passes the Senate in order that Il
careful revision Of Senate changes
NAV be made and a new print of
the bill issued. Representative
Breckenridge, of Arkansas, member
of the committee, says the first step
in the House on receipt Of the bill
will be to refer il to the ways and
means committee. This body will
take several days perhaps, week
in carefully going over the bill and
determining on a policy to be adj
opted toward it in the whole and in
detail,

THE ARTFUL DODGERS"

The nice little scheme OF the
Fishback element, through which
they hoped to square their can
didate with the dear people, on the
Comply seat, question at the ex-
pense of Senator Berry, is fully ex-
planned and exposed by the Wash
ington correspondent to the Arkan-
sds Gazette, in the following special
ftom the National Capitol yester-
day:
News has reached here that the
Brinliley Budget, the Paragould
Solophone and other papers
throughout the State supporting
Gov. Fishbacks candidacy have
published the statement that Sena'
tor Berry would join Gov. FishbacE
in his canvass. 1t is also reliably
stated that hand bills have beer
sent over the state announcing that
Senator Berry and Gov. Fishbacl
would speak at different points.
The assertion that Senator Ber
ry would speak at any of the points
mentioned in the above statemen
is wholly without authority and i

Shot Nearly to Pieces.

Muscogee, l. T., June 19.-This
afternoon the officers brought in
Jim Cook, shot as nearly to pieces
as it is possible to be and live. He
and another person undertook to
hold up the Cherokee money on the
road between Tahlequah and Fort
Gibson last Sunday evening The
Cherokee guards got onto the plot
and went in advance of the money,
In the fight that ensued one of the
guards was killed, and Cook shot in
various places He and his friend
crossed the Arkansas near here this
morning and some marshalls from
this place went in pursuit. Cook
was too badly shot to escape and
was left by his friend to fall into
the hands Of the officers.

SENATE PROCEEDINGS.
That Most Important Feature of the
Tariff Bill, Income Tax"
Reached.

Rapid progress" was the order
of the day, on tariff legislation, in
the Senate, during yesterdays ses-
sion, of that body. The income tax,
page 40, of the tariff bill, was
reached before the hour of adjourn.
ment.
Only sixty-one pages of the bill,
the income tax and internal reve.
nues features, remain undisposed of,
and the end of the long debate
seems close at hand. The remain
ing features of the free list were
completed without friction, sugar
and wool, the great controversial
items, contrary to expectation not
giving rise to debate. Yea and nay
vote was demanded on striking
sugar from the free list, while the
final struggle on free wool was post
pOned until the bill should be re-
ported to the Senate.
The administrative features OF
the bill (sections % to 48 inclusive),
we're stricken out, as Mr.. Jones eX-
planned, in order to facilitate the
passage of the bill, If it was deem
ed advisable later to enact the pro-
posed administrative sections, it
could be done in 4 separate bill.
Mr. Allison intimated that it was
for the Secretary of the Treasury to
place the new tariff bill in force un-
der the operation of the present
administrative law and if defects
we're found to correct them later
on, The contest over the income
tax which promises to be extremely
interesting if not sensational, be,
gins today. 1t is the general eX-
pectation that it will occupy at
least two days.
When the salt schedule was
reached, Mr. PETER offered an
amendment striking that article
from the free list and placing same
on the dutiable list, at a rate Of 8
cents per 100 pounds. The amend
ment was lost on a vote of "a to 80.
The Finance Committee amend
ment restricting free of raw silk to
such as is not manufactured in any
way, was agreed to, When para
graph GAL, sugars" was reached
it was expected that some debate
would occur, but none took place.
Mr., Aldrich merely demanded a yea
and nay vote on the Finance Com
mittee amendment to strike this
paragraph from the free list where
it was placed by the House, The
committee amendment carried by
33 to %, the Republicans, except
Quay, voting solidly against and the
Democrats for it. Mr., PeHer voted
with the Republicans and Messrs,
Kyle and Allen (Pops,) with the
Democrats.

AMERICAS YOUTH.
A New Jersey Boys Deed of Daring
Heroism Recounted.

The following story, of terrible
railroad accident, near Hoboken,
N. j., in which a school boy played
the role of hero, is fully vOuched
for, as the truth:
A terrible railroad accident hap
pened in Hoboken, N. j., a little
while ago. An accommodation
train, running too fast in the fog,
crashed into standing express.
There was schoolboy on the ex-
press who had been sitting in the
rear car studying his lesson. AS
the express train slowed up feel
ing of oppression took hold of him.
He suddenly remembered hearing
his grandfather once say that the
rear car was the most dangerous
one in the train, and acting on an
impulse of the moment he got up
and went through one car into the
third from the rear, He was
scarcely seated when he felt the car
crumbling beneath him, and found
himself entangled in a mass of men
and wreckage,
Wounded and bloody the boy ex-
tricated himself. Above the rush
of escaping steam rose the agonized
cries of the unfortunates pinned
beneath the broken timbers, Men
were dazed and aghast.
can axl an axI" shouted a shrill
voice.
The schoolboy was the first to
gather his wits and start the work
of rescue, With an AK he saved
three or four men before the older
bystanders had begun to think.
Then a cry of horror from anoth-
er point called an excited group OF
men together Beneath the
wrecked engine, amid the dropping
Goals and escaping steam, was seen
the figure of a man. The sight was
the more sickening because the
dead locomotive was liable to topple
over any instant and crush whatev
er lay beneath it. There was cry
for volunteers.
The conductor called; the engineer
called, but all held back. Not all
out of the crowd came slight fig
ure whose clothes were torn, whose
face was almost unrecognizable
from blood and SCOT, and whose
hands were black from mercifu
toll.
9TH go! let me go, quick" criec
the schoolboy.
The crowd stood back, while a
few made an effort to stop him; but
the boy flung himself underneath
the locomotive, risking death as un
hesitatingly as he had skated at re
cess. Steam hid his movements
The huge engine actually shiverec
above him. as if deciding whether
to roll upon the young hero or not
Then there was a shout and mer
felt rising in their throats. From
under the iron monster the boy re
appeared, dragging after him the
man he had gone to save. Now
there we're willing hands and plenty
Of volunteers, after the deed wal
done. 1t was said by those present
that no person so distinguished him
self as that schoolboy. When h'
reappeared at his fathers door
hours afterwards, he sank exhausted
upon the threshold, with clothe
torn, with face and hands grimy ant
bleeding and SO changed that hi
mothers servants did not recogniz
him.
One of the distinguishing qualitie
of our American boyhood is it's read
ness to accept responsibility. Un
selfish and heroic conduct is not
product Of age, but of instinctiv
nobility, which it is pleasant to kno'
that the pupil at school may posses
equally with the man Of mature
