FREE DELIVERY.

Special Agent w. b, Gaitree was in
the city over Sunday, the guest OF MS
relatives.
In a conversation with him about his
new line of work, in which he is al
ready installed, he told us that the
Rural Free Delivery Routes already
exist to the number of AZ, and are in rs
states. Mr.. Gaitree says the average
cost of delivering letter, according to
present demonstration, is 221.lOO cents.
In the Hope, Indiana, district, which is
one of the largest cost per letter, the
expense of delivering is 6 $40 cents per
item. This because the district is
sparselv settled and has small mail
business. Ner Farmingdale, Massa-
chusetts, however, is district where
the cost per piece is but six mills.
The Rural Free Delivery has been on
trial since November l5, 1896. Its feas-
ibility is for most localities recognized,
but the great problem will be to re-
duce the expense per letter or piece to
be delivered. The pay to the carrier
averages about 5000 year.
Mr.. Gaitree says he expects before
long to set the plan into operation in
some part of Washington county.

,o7 WHEAT CROP TO BE a BIG ONE.

'01 WHEAT CROP TO BE \ BIG ONE.
The government crop report, which
shows an improvement in the condition
of wheat as compared with a month
ago, is encouraging. Last months
condition inlicated a handsome in
crease in the total yield as compared
with the crop in 1895, while the esti-
mates which are now furnished show
that the gain will be greater than was
expected four weeks ago. While the
wheat crop in the United States is rea-
sonably sure to be at least T5, 600 900
bushels larger than it was in 1896, the
condition in Russia, France, Austria
Hungary and Great Britain, as report
ed by the European agent Of the Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture,
indicates a smaller yield in those coun-
tries than was had last year. All this
is good news for the American wheat
grower. He will have more to sell
than he had in 1896, and the falling off
in the crop in most of the important
producing countries of Europe will
give him a market for his surplus at
fair prices. &c lobe Democrat.

His Daughters Death.

His Daughters Death.
CHICAGO, Nov. 9.-Tamar T. John
son, an Indian princess, the daughter Of
Old Pine Tree, the chief Of the Tusca-
-roras, died suddenly in Chicago last
Tuesday evening. The body was
shipped to Niagara Falls, n. y, where
Chief Pine Tree lives. The father thinks
her death should be investigated, and
has demanded further inquiry. He
asserts the young woman had between
5000 and $500 and a gold watch and
plenty of handsome clothes when she
died, and he would like to know what
became of her personal possessions.
Miss johnson was teacher in In
dian schools. She came here from the
Cheyenne reservation, where she was
last stationed, for treatment for nerv-
GUS trouble. She died while under
treatment by DR.. T. S:heurlnann. The
cause OF death assigned by the doctor
was peritonitis. -
Miss Johnson was an accomplished
indian girl. She was rs years old, tall
and graceful. For several years she
taught the Indian school on the Tusca-
rora reservation, and in September,
1896, the value Of her services was rec
ognized by the United States superin-
tendent of the Indian schools, and he
transferred her to Fort Totten, N. D..
Later she was sent to the Cheyenne
agency, and it was from there that she
came to Chicago for treatment.

colony, incorporated, have started from

Hebrews of Russian birth or extrac-
ton, for the purpose of obtaining land
to settle upon where they may follow
the occupation of their ancestors in
Palestine. The land was procured from
Morris Cohn, a wealthy and public
spirited Israelite of Carson City, who
sold 500 acres of good farming land to
the colonists at S. an acre on very easy
terms, and furnished them So, 900 worth
of lumber to build their houses and will
aid them in many other ways in order
that the settlers'may have chance to
exist until they become self-supporting.

on Biology.
Charles Eliot Norton, professor Of

tleman in America, = objects most heart
lily to undergraduate specializing. He
believes in the English university train
ing, which gives man q broad educa-
ton and a liberal equipment for citizen
ship which makes Of him cultivated
gentleman. In one Of his lecture courses
Professor Norton told of a student with
whom he had talked. The young man
was sophomore; his speciality, biolo-
gy. He described with great enthusiasm
the character Of his work and lamented
the fact that he had been unable,
through the regulations Of the faculty,
to take more biology in his freshman
year. As a Junior and a senior he in
tended to elect it exclusively, he said
The young mans enthusiasm was
rather more saddening than inspiring
to the professor -Four years devotion
to a single subject was crushing to his
ideals Of education So he asked:
Don t yqu think that your career in
college would eventually be more salts
factory to yourself and Of more profit to
others if you were to take less Of biolo-
gy and acquaint yourself a little with
literature and history and the arts?''
The sophomore thought he was pre-
destined for biology.
For some time Professor Norton was
silent Then he said rather absently:
80 you conf1ne yourself to any par
ticular branch Of biology?''
The face Of the student frightened.
It was evident that he did. To the pro-
fessor there was something pathetic as
well as humorous in the reply that came
quickly:
''Oh, yes. My work is entirely devot-
ed to a study of the white ants intes-
tines. ''-Exchange. ~

Cruiser Sent HuTTiedlu TO Sea.
The New York Dispatched From Under Sealed
Orders Received From Washington.

BOSTON, Mass, June 10-The United
States cruiser New York, the flagship
of the North Atlantic squadron, with
Rear Admiral Montgomery Sicard on
board, steamed out of the harbor at
o'clock this Afternoon, not soul en-
board knowing to what port she is
bound, for it will only be when the big
white cruiser is we'll outside of Boston
light, with her pilot over the side, that
the sealed orders from washington will
be opened and her estimation ascer-
tanned. 1t is generally believed, how
ever, that when she reaches Cape Cod
she will turn her nose to the southwark
and that her twin screws will not stop
until she is somewhere lin the imme-
date vicinity of Cuba; for when she
started she was fully provisioned and
coaled, and could, if necessary, go SO
far as Gibraltar or Rio de .Janeiro with
out laying in more supplies.
That Rear Admiral Sicard must have
had some inkling of an important
cruise seems probably from the fact
that, for the last few days, the entire
crew of the New YorkShave been hard
at work getting the ship ready for
sea, while her coal bunkers have been
filled to overf1owing. It was supposed,
however, that the cruiser would run
around to New York or perhaps Hamp-
ton Roads, and local pilot was noti
fed that the ship would probably pro-
.ceed to sea in a day or two, and that
services would be REQUIRED. Early
this morning something more than the
usual activity was noticed on board
and soon the excitement extended to
the navy yard. 1t was seen that all
