DEBS' SCHEME.
The Labor Leader Has Applied to the
Union Pacific for Land,
THE GREAT TOMBOY MINE.
The New Tunnel Cuts the Great Ore Chute
-Grasshoppers in South DakOta-Antl-
Lynch Law AssOoiatlon-Huge
Importation of Opium.

OMAHA, Neb., June 1G.-The officials
Of the Union Pacific railway have re-
ceived a communication from Eugene
v. Debs, relative to his cooperative
commonwealth scheme. The PROPOSE
ton must be reviewed by the general
managers office. Debs desires large
concessions of land, embracing many
hundreds of acres. The railroad COM
pany has plenty Of land, yet the kind
Debs wants, suitable for an agricul-
tural community as we'll as COM
mercial enterprises, is valuable
and on the market at good figures
The matter of transportation for
the members of Debs' company will be
arranged as with any other colony de-
string rates, but with the land PROPOSE
ton it is different. 1t is and always
has been the policy of the Union Pa
cific company to give lands for colo
MES to limited extent, and to encour-
age immigration by such means along
its line, but the Debs scheme Is much
more elaborate than the company has
ever been called upon to deal with.
The Great TombOy Mine.
DENVER, Col, June 16.-The new
tunnel in the Tomboy mine near Tel
luride has cut the great ore chute in
that property at depth of 45O feet be-
low the old workings. The upper

| body of free milling ore over 1000 feet
long and to IA feet wide. A control
ling interest in the mine was recently
sold to the Rothschilds. Gov. Adams,
one of the owners, says the new de-
velopment makes it the greatest mine
in North America.
Grasshoppers In South Dakota.
REDFIELD, S. D.. June 16.-State IT.
rigation Commissioner Cochrane has
just returned from Edmunds county,
where he has been directing measures
to destroy grasshoppers, which have
alarmed settlers there and in Brown
county. Prof Saunders, of the state
agricultural college, is on the ground
experimenting the work. Fourteen
hopper dosers are In use. Crude petro,
leum is shipped in by the railways free
and used in the work.
An AntI-Lynoh Law Association.
COLUMBUS, o., June 16.-.The National
Anti-Mob and Lynch Law association
has been Incorporated by the secretary
of state. It's purposes are declared to
be to discourage mob and lynch law
within the United States and to agi-
tate public sentiment with view to

lators. 1t is proposed to form branch
associations all over the United States.

MISSOURI CROPS.

Corn Growing Rapidly Glover Being Cut
Gardens aud Potatoes Suffering for
Rain.
COLUMBIA, Mo-, June 16.-The week.
ly Missouri crop bulletin, issued here
by the government weather service,
says. In the east, central and north
eastern portions Of the state and also
in some of the central counties the
rainfall was too light to be of any
benefit, and in several of the north
eastern counties pastures are getting
short, oats and meadows have been
greatly injured and nearly all crops
are suffering to greater or less ex-
tent from the drought. The warm
weather is just what has been needed
for corn, and it is now growing rapid
ly, except in a few counties, where it
is held back by drought. In some Of
the northern counties, where cut
worms, mice and moles have been un-
usually destructive, much replanting
has been done during the week, and in
some localities there is considerable
yet to do. Wheat seems to be filing
well as rule. Oats and meadows
have improved, while in others the
yield will be very light Glover is
now being cut, and is reported an ex-
cellent crop in some counties; in 9TH
ers poor Flax continues to do well.
Gardens and potatoes are suffering for
rain in some districts, but as a rule are
making good progress. Early peaches
and raspberries are ripening in the
southern sections

Leedy.
TOPEKA, Kan, June 16.-The COM
mittee appointed by Gov. Leedy to con-
fer with Oklahoma and Texas commit
tees in the effort to secure reduced
freight rates made its report to the
governor this afternoon. Concisely
stated the report of the committee Isl:
That the rates from Kansas to the gulf have
been found unjust and excessive; that It costs
too much for Kansas farmers to ship grain
south and that the question must be settled
In one Of four ways suggested to be taken up
In this order:
First-Attempted remedial conference with
thn railroads by the governor or railrOad COM
mission with a view toward having a reduction
between now and fail when grain is shipped
south heavily.
Second-The use Of the special session club
on the railroads II the first plan fails
Third-The calling Of n special session Of the
Legislature II the two propositions do not work
and the attempt to pass maximum freight
rate bin.

efnd0n Of the building Of north and south
railroad through Kansas to the gulf as q last

state Superintendent stryIor VIII Act at
the Next Council Meeting.
TOPEKA, Kan. June 16-State SUI
perintendent Stryker declares that at
the next meeting of the executive
council, June 30, he will introduce a
resolution to remove ex-Gov. L. d.
Lewelling from the state board of
railroad commissioners unless he
should choose to resign.
Superintendent Stryker voted for
Mr.. Lewelling when the council elect
ed the board last winter, but he says
the testimony Of Harry Lands and of
State Senator Titus warrants his re-
moval and that he has made up his
mind TO force the council to vote on
the subject.
Mr.. Strylker has not made this state
ment publicly and he is not in the city
to-day and therefore cannot be inter
viewed, but he has nnburdened his
mind to his fellow state officers and to
other officials and there is no doubt
that he is quoted correctly above.

VERY FUNNY
Mrs. Darlington And Her Son

Another large audience Was present
funny comedy of Mrs. Darlington
and her son Ike as produced by the
Elleford COmpany.
Imtned ately upon the curtain aris-
ing the fun begins and never ceases
until the curtain drops on the last act,
Tie Amusement created by the En-
tire cast kept the audience in a roar Of
laUght-r. There was hardly a NOM
ent allowed to think seriously Of ME
cast having a part assigned which
created funny SITUATIONS. At times
he prRdicaments Of the Judge, i'm
p~ersonated by James CorrjGsn, and
'be deacon, by Richard Scott, were
perfectly ludicrOus. Born OF them
were strong for the efferli2us Of Widow
Partington and finally de deacon
holds the winning hanU.
The principal roles were in the pos
ession Of ". j. EIleford and Jessie
NortOp. Their approximations ware
perfect to the letter, and to say that
the audience enjoyed ,-hetr witticisms
and acting would be- putting it
mildly.
Miss JESSIE NOrton as Ike, a very
mischievOus boy, who was always
playing jnkea, had her hands full and
put considerable vivacity into the
character. She also sang some pop

The other leading character was as
signed to Mr.. Elleford and he sus.
tanned it in a thoroughly capable
manner. AS to making love be die
