generally favorable to crops. except in
the States OF the Ohio Valley, New
York and portions of New England.

Corn continues in excellent condition
in the Southern States and is growing
rapidly in Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa and
Wisconsin. Cotton has made good pro-
gress, although the heavy continuous
rains have interferred with cultivation
in Texas. Georgia reports crops In
average condition. 1t is growing rap
idly in Oklahoma and Arkansas, but
growth has been slow in Alabama. In
Mississippi the plant Is small. but
healthy. Tobacco planting has beer

Tho Horseshoe superststtor,-

The other day Us wedding guests were
leaving the old South church a motor
man left his car to pick up horseshoe.
For luck? Not at all, but because it lay
directly on the rail ahead. and in the in
terest of passengers and possibly rolling
stock he gathered it not over tenderly
and gave it o fling so that it fell almost
at the feet Of three ladies, one of whom
was about to pick it up, when practi-
cal member of the trio said: DON soil
your gloves, and never mind if there are
three nails in it 1t was not you who
found it, but the motorman, and he has
flung it away, good luck and all - The
citizen passed the spot three minutes
later, and no trace of the horseshoe was
found Why? Because Beacon street
girls escort captured it and carried it
off on his cane. Boston Post.

\, Turkey Slow to Co1nplv.

CoNsTANTINorLE, June 1s.-The
Turkish government has made a fresh
reply to the note of the powers outlining
the reforms insisted upon for Armenia.
The Porte accepts the principle OF the
proposed reforms, but requests that
several points be discussed before any
action is taken. The impression which
prevails here Is that the reply ia tanta-
mount to refusal and 1t Is feared that
the powers will adopt more urgent
measures to enforce their demands.
Reinforcements of Russian troops, 1t h ss
now been definitely sscertained, have
been sent to the Turkish frontier In the
vicinity of Armenia.

general progress. While this city has
suffered with tho rest of the country
from the prolonged business depression,
which in some particulars has been sg
gravated by local causes due to condi-
tions arising in certain lines from tho
the whole borne up wonderfully we'll,
and now everything points to renewal
of confidence, increasing business and
better times.
Already there is revival in many
lines OF trade and manufactures, and,
Notwithstanding the city, along with
the rest Of Southwest Virginia, has
suffered from the late strike in the
Flat Top coal regions, the inconvenience
was OF short duration. comparatively,
and, with the resumption of operations
there, all evidences OF depression from
that source have nearly disappeared.
Merchants report better and q steadily
increasing business. Transactions in
quiries for desirable property much
more frequent than month ago. Money
circulates more freely, and employment
is more easily obsainable; the number
of unemployed in the city is becoming
daily less, and houses that were vacant
for months are now occupied. The banks
report an improvement In depoai.s and
feeling OF hope and confidence Ia rap
idly replacing tho uncertainty and
dependency that prevailed last year.
The good news from Norfolk has also
had perceptible effect on the spirits
of our people, who see in the prospective
growth and prosperity OF that city in
creased advantages to Southwest Vir-
ginis, with which the future great sea-
port OF the old Dominion has always
been closely connected. On the whole,
there is every reason to be gratifled
with the course of events, as compared
with our condition few months ago,
and with a continuance Of that faith and
perseverance and mutual cooperation
which have always characterized the
energetic and enterprising people of the
Magic City. there is every reason to
believe that all will soon be prosperous
and contented, with glorious future in
store for Roanoke and the Southwest.

THE people Of Richmond are doing all

THE people of Richmond are doing all
they can to prevent the removal Of the
United States monitors from the James
river, near that city. This Is but
another evidence Of the wonderful
changes Of time. Just q little over
thirty years ago the people OF the same
city were doing all they could, with the
aid OF Southern soldiers and heavy guns,
to drive these vessels away, and they
succeeded in accomplishing their pur-
pose. too. We hope they may be equally
successful in their present designs, al
though they are entirely opposite in
character from their former efforts
against the monitors.

KENTUCKY DEMOCRATS.
Not Likely That They Will Declare fo
Free Silver


LOUISVILLE. KY, June 1s.-It is still
an open question who will receive the
Democratic nomination for governor bu I
1t Is not an open question as to what the
Democratic State convention will do
about free silver. Nearly half the DEL
egates selected are ei,her instructed to
vote against free silver or are known to
be opposed to it. Many others friendly
to silver, are individually, and as rep
resentatives of the convention which
chose them opposed to the policy TO
making any declaration OF free silver
into platform.
Neither Gen. P. W. Hardin nor C. M.
Clay have anything like enough i'm
structed votes to win on the frat ballot.
There are SIS votes, and 44o are neces-
ssry to choice. One hundred and
fourteen out OF 119 counties give Har-
din, for governor, 269; Clay, 2Ol; Afford,
2; Buckner, 5. The uninstructed vote
is 1854. The counties not heard from

HOMES IN THE WEST AND SOUTH.

Now that nearly ell the available
lands OF the West have been taken up
by settlers or donated to the railroad
corporations, 1t is proposed by irrigation
to add millions upon millions of acres
to the homestead areas of that section.
The last Congress enacted law donat-
ing to each State in which there are
arid lands one million acres OF such
lands on condition shat they be re-
claimed by the State.
Already Idaho and Wyoming have
complied with all the fofmslities of law,
and have taken steps towards securing
o million acres OF land within their
borders. Heretofore these arid lands
have lain barren because the general
government could not be induced to
enter upon wholesale irrigation, and
private corporations found the tack
too gigantic and unprofitable
Under the new law, however, the
State after retaining it, sells the land
in sections Of 100 acres for such price
as can be obtained, and, II at the end
OF five years, the reclamation seems to
be permanent the title to the land
passes from the general government to
the State and thence to the settlers.
This, no doubt, will mean homes to
thousands; but long time will be re-
quired to accomplish such irrigation,
and millions Of dollars must be ex-
pended. In the meanwhile, millions OF
acres, easy Of cultivation and at low
prices, await the settler in the South
without any extra outlay. 1t Is easy to
see which section offers the grea. les
inducements, and the rush of immi-
grants here shows that home seekers
are beginning to see and understand
the advantages afforded

SERIOUS AFFAIR.
Young Charles Hughes Cut q Boy
With n Knife.

William Pendleton, colored. and Charles
Hughes, white, neither of them fifteen
years old, figured in a fight near 14th
and Chaplin streets yesterday, almost in
front of the home Of the Hughes boy, and
when Pendleton was taken to Freedman's
Hospital the physicians found that he had
received an ugly cut in the back, and it
was feared that the wound was a fatal
one Policeman Peck arrested the Hughes
boy and recovered from him the penknife
with which he had done the cutting. The
point of the blade had been broken off, and
a stab wound could not have been made
with it. 1t appears from statements made
by the police that there had been trouble
between the boys because Charlie Hughes
had suspected Pendleton of being respon-
sible for the disappearance of his fowls.
Yesterday Pendleton stopped near where
Hughes was standing, and some words
passed between them. Pendletop, it is
stated, threw a stone and knocked off
Hughes hat
The latter then started in pursuit of Pen
dleton, who had started to run, and used
the knife on his back. He was about to
use it a second time. but was prevented
from doing SO by huckster who witnessed
the affair.
The arrest followed, and the boy was
taken to the police station. Because of the
serious condition of The injured boy bail
was refused.
Today in the Police Court Hughes was
charged with assault with intent to kill,
and the case was continued to await the
result of Pendleton's injuries
