minors. He 10 also under = charge
for Q serious crime. He concluded this
week that he did not wish to serve out bis
term and stand trial on another charge.
The way to prevent his trial and stop bis
life here, was to break jail. So he set
about to find n way out. The trash barrel

emptied by some u OF the jail sttsohees
Otto thought 1t would be q good thing "a

the Jail ready to help him on bis way u
liberty, and SO he safely housed himselj
and was covered by the rubbish that hat
accumulated. Tailor Goode upon discOy'
ering that the barrel was full, ordered 4
rolled outside and emptied. The barre

CROP CONDITIONS.

There Is an old adage which says, "A dry season scares us but a wet one starves us." This promises to be true this sea- son. It is a we'll known fact to all ob- servers that the crops of a dry season give better results when fed than those of the ranker growth of a wet one. The feeding qualities of the dry more than make up for fiashy bulk of the wet.
 So far, except bulk of hay, all crops are up to the normal. The late frosts of spring did but very little damage in this part of New England. Apple trees which turned yellow in a few hours are found to show a fair setting of fruit the inside of the tree, and now that the first drop ping Is over there appears to be enough left to call it good crop.
 Cherries have been unusually plenty. Peaches and pears have good crop which are growing well. But few strawberry beds were injured. Grapes where for ward enough to be damaged have put out new set of sprouts blossomed and set well. Raspberries were beginning to dry up have recovered and will produce good fruit; also blackberries.
 Berries have generally been smaller and more tart than usual but have kept well and none been lost by storms. Win ter grain looks and stands we'll as the straw Is firm but smaller growth there is little or no smut, and heads we'll filled with good hard grain. Oats will nearly recover but have smaller growth of straw than usual

London aRd Paris express. Cleveland Moilett suppliee. from the Pinkerton archives, history of an express parcel $I1 900, and of the discovery of the thief and the recovery of most of the money after years of search and pur- suit. A poem addressed by Edmund Goose to Robert Louis Stevenson, which reached Stevenson but day or two be- fore his death; Stevenson's rare address of thanks to the Samoan chiefs who built him road, and his will and several ex- cellent stories, among them one by go" and one by Stanley J. Weyman-are the other noteworthy features of the number. That famous man, Thomas Henry Huxley, is dead. He was born at Ealing, Middlesex, England, May 4, 1925, and died June 20, 1895. The honor which he held highest in the long list conferred upon him was that of president of the Royal society. His field at large was the wide world of zoology and biology and the special thing with which he is popu- larly identified Is support of the theories of evolution and materialism. But in all matters of human interest he took a hand and his essays illumine a wide range of subjects. In his autobiography he speaks of the discovery a man makes toward the end of life, when he has reached the top of the hillock he started out in youth to climb, and finds that it is merely the spur of immeasurably higher ranges beyond. Then he describes what he had in view when he set out to climb his little hillock, as follows: To promote the increase of natural knowledge and to forward the application of scientific methods of investigation to all the problems of life to the best of my abii- ity, in the conviction which has grown with my growth and strengthened with my strength, that there is no alleviation for the sufferings of mankind, except veracity of thought and of action, and the resolute facing of the world as it is when the garments of make-believe by which pious hands have hidden it's ugler features is stripped off. It is with this intent that have subordinated any req sonable or unreasonable ambition for scientific fame which I may have per mitted myself to entertain to other ends to the capitalization of science; to the development of organization of scientific education to the endless series of bat ties and skirmishes over evolution; and to untiring opposition to that ecclesiasti- cal spirit, that clericalism, which in Eng land, as everywhere else, and to what. ever denomination it may belong, is the deadly enemy of science.

Most readers will be surprised to learn, as any one may from an excellent illus trated article In McClure's Magazine for July, how the telegraph has now crept into the remotest crannies of the earth, and is transmitting it's hundreds of mill lions of messages year at constantly lessening cost in money and trouble to the public. The same number contains a dramatic chapter from the history of Tammany-the autocratic reign of Tweed, with all it's barbaric and illicit splendors, splendors maintained by the theft of untold millions of public money. An article by Sir Robert Ball, profess sor of Astronomy in the University of Cambridge, England, shows that recent discoveries tend to support the theory that other planets, as well as the earth, maintain life. Hamlin Garland describes the home and studio life of Edward Kemeys, aHd relates, mainly in Mir Kemey's own words, how, without In- struction and under the irresistible urgency of natural bent, he became a sculptor of frontier life and wild animals. Portraits of Kemeys and reproductions Of his chief sculptures illustrate the paper. Cy warman, the post engineer, describes ride on the locomotive of a
