| DIES MONIES, Sept. I-Director Sage,
Of the Iowa Weather and Crop Service,
has returned from trip through the
northern and eastern part of the state
for the purpose of inspecting the corn
| crop. He went out over the Burling-
ton, Cedar Rapids & Northern and
Iowa Central roads. traversing exactly
the same country he went over before.
His idea was to ascertain the effect OF
the recent hot weather on the crop.
To reporter he said: 1.-TWO weeks
ago went through exactly the same
territory and found corn progressing
as well as could be desired. 1t is true
there were some evidences of need OF
rain. but on the whole the crop was IN
prime condition, the fields were green
and the kernels were still filing out
and the kernels multiplying. This
time the fields present an almost Soild
expanse of dried out stalks and leaves.
The weather has not been too warm,
but it has been too dry, and as ID result
the crop has ripened in the past few
days before it had an opportunity to
mature. Many fields contain nothing
but nu bbins of corn, while in others
the ear is of good size, but the kernels
have not filled out and lack the proper
amount of nutritious matter. l pre-
sumo the conditions / found in the
territory visited extend over pretty
much the entire state, with the excep-

BRYAN IN A TRAIN WRECK.
Twelve Persons Killed, Hut He ESCAPE"

EMpoRIA, Kas., Sept. 0--one OF 'hc
worst wrecks in tho history OF the
Santa Fe railroad occurred three miles
east of Emporia ut about 1880 p H.
Twelve or fifteen persons were Killed.
and as many more were badly hurt
The fast mail train going east and the
Mexico g. California express, west
bound, collided head on. The MEXICO
| & California express was pulled by two
locomotives, and when they struck
the engine drawing the fast mail the
boilers of all three engines exploded
and tore a hole in the ground so deep
that the smoking cars OF the west
bound train went in on top OF the
engine and two mail cars balanced
there without turning over. Inc
engineer of the west-bound train had
received orders to meet the fast mail
at Emporia, and was making up lost
time. These two are the fastest trains
on the Santa Fe system, and the east
bound train must have been running
at speed of at least forty miles an
hour. The west-bound train carried
seven or eight coaches, and it's pas
sengers included many excursionists,
who had been to hear Hon. w. j.
Bryan speak at the county fair at
Burlingame. Mr.. Bryan himself was
on the train, but was riding in the
rear Pullman some 400 feet from the
cars which were wrecked. Mr.. Bryan
helped to carry out the Gead and
wounded, and gave the greatest atten-
ton to their care. One poor fellow
who was badly manned called to Mr..
Bryan and said: Il went to hear you
to-day; l am dying and want to shake
your hand and say God bless you. If
you possibly can, Mr. Bryan, get me a
drink of WATER Mr.. Bryan went
into the fast mail car. one end of
which was burning. and came out
with the drink. which he gave to the
suffering man.
