Topeka, Kan, Sept. u.-(Special.)-
A dispatch from Salina says: In the
case Of the State VS.. John Radford the
jury returned a verdict of guilty last
evening after being out about three
hours. The testimony in the case was
much the same as in the preliminary ex-
animation before Justice Berg.
This was a peculiar case and deserves
more than the usual notice. A statute
Of this state provides that "the killing
Of a human being by the act, procure
ment or cuipable negligencet of another,
which would be manslaughter at COM
mon law, and which is not excusable or
justifiable, etc, shall be manslauShter
in the fourth degree
Under this Statute, Radford, the de-
PENDANT, was charged with having caus-
ed by his culpable negligence, the death,
by drowning, of Harry Hudson on the
20th Of last July by forcibiy carrying
him against his will into the deep and
rapid waters Of the Smoky Hill river
County Attorney c. w. Banks, assist
ed by j. 3. Hutchinson, conducted the
prosecution and j. G. Mohler and At
torney Chapman the defense.
Many states have a similar statute
but few prosecutions are made. In
Missouri there was one late case report
ed, and also one in Iowa. The law
seems 10 be that a person may be
found guilty of manslaughter when
death is the result of his culpa bic negli-
gence, or carelessiess without the
slightest intent or purpose to do harm,
and even under such circumstances
guilty Of causing the death of a friend,
as the cases cited by the attorneys for
the state proved.
This case should serve as a caution to
ill persons inclined to indulge in reck-
less sport or careless conduct with 9th
ers, not only for the welfare and safety
Of the others, but avoid the liability and
escape the consequences of their own
negligence and carelessness as well.

COTTON PICKING HAS BEGUN.
fEds in Oklahome are Now the Scenes of
Industry.

Oklahoma City. Sept. 11.-(Special)-
Weather crop bulletin No. "a of the Ok
lahoma weather crop service, for the
week ending Monday. Sept. 3, says.
The weather during the past week
was unusually hot for this season of the
year, every day being from 70 II de-
greeS above normal
Normal temperature for the week is
"A degrees, the average this week past
was S2-3, averaging 80 degrees daily
above normal. The maximum temper
allure, 1O2 degrees on the 4th, is reported
from Kemp. Chickasaw nation, and the
minimum, 81 degrees at Oklahoma City
on the 9TH.
No general rain has fallen within the
week, only local showers reported from
four stations on the 9Th, ali from Okla
homa county. Over central Okla homa
county a severe thunder storm with
high wind and very heavy rain occurr-
ed on the evenig of the 9Th. The rain
fall at Oklahoma City was the heaviest
since 1891, $50 inches falling in an hour;
hail accompanied this rain but not
enough TO do any damage.
THE CORPS.
The weather during the week has been
very favorable to cotton, which has
grown and is maturing rapidly. Pick
ing has begun in the southern section,
and in few fields in the central and
eastern sections. First bale put upon
the market at Norman on the 9th
brought ~ cents per pound.
Flowing for wheat still continues. At
the close of the week the ground in por
tons of some counties is getting too
dry for this work.
Except from one correspondent in
kingfisher county, no wheat has yet
been reported planted, and most likely
but very little will be sown until the last
of the month or until October. on ac-
count of the ability of chinch bugs and
ny destroying the early planted fields
Farmers have been busy this week
cutting corn, broom corn, making wild
hay, picking cotton. blowing for wheat
and preparing for the harvest of milo
maize and kaffir corn.
Sweet potatoes and late planted Irish
potatoes are growing fast.
NOTE-These bulletins will continue
until October LIST or Sth, and all our
correspondents are requested to contin-
lie their weekly reports until then. and
make them as complete and reliable as
possible. We would like to receive spe-
cial reports from now on until the close

stock dispatch says:
The store and express Office at Capon
Road Station, Shenandoah county, were
entered Thursday night about mid
night by burglars, who obtained three
packages from the express Office, and
quantity of goods and small amount
of money from the store. An hour or
so afterwards the store of McCune &
Rhoades, at Cedar Creek Station, about
two. and half miles north of Capon
Road, in which store is the postoffice,
was broken into and young Benjamin
McCune, who sleeps in the store, was
bound with the sheets of his bed, being
threatened with death if he made any
outery. While the burglar-only one
was seen here-was at work in the
store and Office, McCune broke the
bonds and Selling pistol from beneath
his o llow jumped from a window, and
running to the front of the store, fired
three times at the burglar, but without
effect. About 81 600 in goods, checks,
money and stamps were secured at
Cedar Creek. A large lot of cigars and
other goods taken from the Capon Road
store were found near the Cedar Creek
store yesterday morning.
