TOPEKA, February 27.-The aid commits
eioners appointed by Governor Morrill, have
issued another appeal for help to settlers in
western Kansas. After relating that the
committee has already bsen abe to send
out sixty five car loads of food and clothing
through the generosity of eastern Kansas
people, the appeal says:
Now, however, applications for immediate
assistance from the county comm issioners
OF twenty-five counties and hundreds of let.
ters from individuals implOring us for help,
but our supplies are entirely exhausted.
The county com m issi oners of these twenty
two counties report that there will be great
suffering and in some cases danger OF loss
of life if immediate help is not given.
Food, provisions and clothing of all kinds
are most needed-if money is contributed
send it to S. L. Howe. Topeka. Kan.
We earnestly ask that communities in east
ern Kansas collect car load lots and report
to this committee at oncs and the committee
will advise where most needed. Car load
lots can be transported over railroads within
mittee before shipment.
The committee only sends supplies upon
request of the board of county comm isson-
ers of the county needing aid. In all cases
the county commissioners have agreed to
distribute all supple, fres of charge. IN con-
nection with their township trustees, and all
sh hlpments are made direct t. the county
cOmmi missioners. We trust that the good
people of Kansas, who are able. will prompt
~ and generously respond to this appeal.

People who have never been In Jun
the horizon or seafarinG man Of the
offing-as If when you wanted to see It
you only need use your eyes. But in the
jungle you don't see the sky-at least,
says the Siam Free Press. Neither do
you feel the wind blowing, nor set
burned or dazzled by the sun, nor even
see that luminary, except by momen-
tary glimpses about midday. From
which 1t follows that jungleman docs
not usually pretend to be weatherwise.
II he does he is even a greater humbuS
than the rest Of the weather prophets.
On the afternoon about which we
were speaking remember setting forth
on my walk in the still glow Of the
tropical calm and wondering rather at
the intense stiffness Of the surrounding
forest. Then the air grew cooler and
the green Of the foliage in front seemed
to deepen, and presently there was q
sound as Of q giant waterfall in the dis
tance. Waterfalls do not, however,
grow louder every second. whereas the
noise In front did so. Then there was
q loud, angry growl as Of a dozen lions.
A minute more and the whole jungle
began to roar as IL fifty sQuadrons Of
heavy cavalry were coming up at gal
lop. Then came a drop Of rain and q
peal Of thunder which seemed to make
the world stop.
Then the storm began. The sky above
darkened, the trees clattered, the
brushwood beneath hissed and bowed
itself. A deluge Of rain drops blotted
out the narrow view. Down 1t came,
soaking through the densest leaves un-
der which one fed for refuge, striking
the grass and sand with millions Of
dull thuds, dashing furiously against
the leaves as II they were so many hos
tile shields, streaking the air with in
Vulnerable perpendicular lines and
hurling itself down with the force Of
bullets

New HAMPTON, a., February 21.-Presi.
Gent Stickney. of the Chicago Great Western

advocating a more scientific and thorough
method of farming He will hold one or
two meetings in all the important towns

experience in special crops such as potatoes.
A meeting wa- he'd here and addressed
by S. H. Hall, of Minneapolis. He claims
that nearly 100000 bushels OF potatoes
are imported every year. and that by a rota-
tion of crops and the cultivation of potatoes
to greater extent this deficiency can be made
up along the line of the Great Western road.
Mr.. Stickney says he calls it his gospel of
better farming Of smaller farms, and that it
will be preached from one end of the road
to the other. They are travelling in their

WASHINGTON, D. c.. February 22.-The
treasury officials heard with much satisfac-
ton of the success of the late bond issues.
They we're especially pleased with the favor
