 The Echo says it is not thought that the Ithica crew will seriously threaten the English crews. Pursuing the sub- iect, the Echo adds They row a tre- mendously fast stroke but they fail to catch the water with effect The men sitting in a direct line cause the craft to hang betwen the strokes. Several changes have been made in the crews, and there appears to be difficulty in seating the men right"

A Reply to an Impatient Wes,~-


 Kenesaw Mountain Landis, Mir. Gres- hams private secretary, writes a Wash ington correspondent, recently opened a letter from a congressman-elect in Kan- sas, addressed to the secretary of state, and reading thus: More than six weeks ago, MT. Blank, one of my con stituents, applied to you for appoint ment of special messenger to Japan. So far he has heard nothing from you. l would like to have this attended to right away. To which the polite Mir. Landis replied as follows: We beg 10, GOO 900 pardons for the delay. The secretary of state is i'll, and, therefore, not able to give your constituent $ case the personal attention which it's imDoT- tance deserves. Just as soon as the sec retary is strong enough to ride in an ambulance we will have him brought over for the purpose of taking up this exceedingly serious matter. It is true that at this moment we have no special messenger to Japan. In fact, we have never had. Furthermore, we never will have unless congress creates the office and makes an appropriation for it.

This is the sum we hear the Salzer
Seed Co. offer for suitable name for
their wonderful new oats. The United
States department of agriculture says
Salzer's oats is the best of 300 varieties
tested. A great many farmers report
test yield of 200 bushels per acre last
year, and are sure this can be grown
and even more during 1895. Another
farmer writes us he cropped liz bush
els of Salzer's Marvel Spring wheat on
two and one-half acres. At such yield
wheat pays at SOC per bu. One thing
we know and that is that Salzer is the
