DENVER, COLORADO.
For Week Ending last Monday.

The weather conditions have
been ideal for the harvesting and
thrashing of grain throughout the
state. Corn Is generally reported
as doing we'll; it Is maturing in
the eastern counties. Haying
continues in all se.tions, and the
crop is being secured in excellent
condition. The harvest of wheat
and oats is practically completed,
except in San Luis Park, where
about week of warm weather is
needed to rpen wheat, much of
which, owing to excessive precipi
tatlon during the greater part of
the season, attained too much
growth. Extensive preparations
for fall wheat are under way in
Bent county, where, as also in
other portions OF the Arkansas
valley, crops are well advanced,
the prevailing warm weather be-
ing favorable to the ripening of
tomatoes, cantaloupes, grapes,
plums, pears and other late crops.
Pototoes, with few exceptions,
look we'll, but rain is needed, es-
pecially in the San Luis, where
the water supply has been ex-
hausted. Crops are maturing sat
isfactorily on the western slope.
Fine fruits are coming into mark
ct. and heavy shipments continue.
The water supply is getting low
in most sections but as rule late
crops are now too far advan ced to
be seriously injured.

but they don't want it concealed in an over

tial. 1t is because THE CHICAGO DAILY

The Department of the Interior

JAW VII AAoASoNSAN AsA6HUs
The Department of the Interior
is sending out the following clrcu-
lar TO the different land offices:
Your attention is called to the
provisions of an act of Congress,
approved Dec. 30 '94, entitled "An
act to amend section 5 of an act to
Withdraw certain public lands II ON
private entry, and for other pur-
poses, approved March I'd 1889.
Sec. 3 of the act of March I'd 1859
reads as follows:
That whenever it shall be made
to appear to the register and re-
ceiver of any public land Office,
under such regulations as the Sec
retary of the Interior 1lay pre-
scribe, that any settler UPON the
public domain under existing law
is unable, by reason of a total or
partial destruction or failure of
crops. sickness, or other unavoid-
able casualty, to secure a support
for himself, herself, or those de-
pendent upon him or her upon the
lands settled upon, then such reg
lister and receiver may grant 10
such settler a leave of absence
from the claim upon which he or
she has filed fora period not eX-
ceeding one year at any one time.
and such settlers granted leave Of
absence shall forfeit no rights by
reason of such absence: Provided,
That the time of such actual alb
sence shall not be deducted from
the actual residence required by
law.
And the provision added there
to by the amendatory act is as
follows:
That ii any such settler has here
tofore forfeited his or her entry
for any of said reasons. such per-
son shall be permitted to make
entry of not to exceed quarter
section on any public land subject
to entry under the homestead law
and to perfect title to the same
under the same conditions in ev-
cry respect as if he had not made
the former entry.
No party will be allowed to make
second entry under this act, un-
loss his former entry is cancelled
for any of the causes named, arls-
ing before December 20 1894.
The applicant for such permls-
SION to make second entry will be
required to file III the district land
office having jurisdiction over the
land he desires to enter, an appli-
cation for specific tract OF land,

Attacked BY a Bear.
Postmaster VanDeusen, Leroy
Washburn, II. A. Ferguson and
NJ. ID. Parmenter left on Sunday
for weeks fishing and hunting
on Mud Creek, one of the best re-
sorts in this vicinity for a pleasant
outing. They returned yesterday
however, to have their clothing
repaired and to get their nerves
settled. While Mr.. Washburn
was quietly fishing on Tuesday
evening he was suddenly con-
tronted by a large bear which
swung Its left paw and struck him
twice below the belt before he
could get away. The bear then
attacked Ferguson and treated
mm the same way, but it did not
bother Parmenter for the reason
that he had sprinted up tree in
record breaking time and was
shouting words OF encouragement
to the victims who were engaged
III a foot race with the bear. For
tunately the men attacked escap-
ed with only slight scratches, but
their clothing was torn to tattars
amidships and they made their
entry into town clothed1n sllckers
The party was two miles from
camp when the attack occurred
and had no weapons. Search
was made for the bear yesterday
but he had disappeared.-Lamal
