Wheat of the World,

Statistician Hyde, of the national
agricultural department., has COM
pleted the official report of the crops
of the world for this month, and re-
vised review of the worlds wheat is an
important feature. The Russian whe ut
crop is now put by the ministry of
agriculture at Al, ZOO, 900 Winchester
bushels, an increase of 1000, 900 over
the Hungarian official estimate. An
estimate believed to he below rather
than above the actual yield is credited
to the Hungarian agricultural minis
try, estimating the Hungarian wheat
crop at 1872, 277.2OO bushels of sixty
pounds. An estimate said to be the
preliminary official one, puts the Ger
man wheat crop at 100000 bushels
more than the 1897 crop, making it in
round numbers l15, 100000 bushels of
sixty pounds. The official estimate of
the italian wheat crop puts it at 1873, :
791, 131 Winchester bushels. The lat
est estimate of the Spanish wheat crop
is a little less than $4,000 Win
chester bushels. The London Times
estimates the wheat crop of the United
Kingdom at II, 900, 900 Winchester bush
els, considerably in excess of the esti-
mates month ago. The official esti-
mate for Roumania makes it's wheat
crop SO, 456, 9O4 Winchester bushels.
Official figures for Manitoba, give it's
crop is'26, 729, 1903 Winchester bushels.
Preliminary official figures make the
crop of Ontario 33,O28,O 79 Winchester
bushels, the total for the two provinces
being SO, 757, 1887 Winchester bushels.
As the wheat area of the more eastern
provinces was much larger than in re-
cent years, it seems likely that the
total for Canada will reach the highest
of last months estimate, 60, 600, 600
imperial bushels. On the whole the
changes from a month ago increase
the total estimate of the worlds wheat
crop, but the conditions affec ting
the crops of the Southern hemisphere
are scarcely so favorably as they were
commonly supposed to be when the
estimates used in the table published
a month ago were made.

LIMBS MAJORITIES.

John Lind's remarkable success at
the polls is still the source of a vast
deal of speculation. The causes are
affording plenty of food for specula-
ton. but the result is round, hard
fact that admits of no discussion.
He is elected by 20, 600 majority. The
Pioneer Press sums up the majorities
by districts as follows:
1t appears that the only district car
ried by Mr.. Eustis is the First, where
he received but $500 in place of the
1000 to $1,000 that his friends had ex-
pected. The Second district, where
5000 to 1000 was hoped for, went
nearly 1900 for Lind. The Third,

in the ST 9TH, where Lind
was conceded 5000, he got almost
1000. And so it is with the best laid
plans. The figures follow:

back to near the high level of the day
Net gains resulted fractionally for the
most part, but extending to point in
some cases.

London parity, but prices yielded i;2me-

New Pension Bill,

Private Dalzell, of Caldwell has
prepared bill to be presented to
Congress next winter by the represen-
tative from his district, providing for
a uniform service pension of So a
month, or bounty of 800 to each
and every officer and enlisted man in
the army and navy called out in the
war with Spain. He estimates the to-
tai bounty at $25,O00,OOO and the year.
ly pensions $2O,OO0.OO0, and proposes
distinctly to cut off all pension attor-
neys and all the delay of red tape by
having the bill provide that NO attor-
ney be recognized OF paid cent in
any case for either pension or bounty,
but the money be paid at once to the
soldier or his relatives direct, on
mere application by himself and pre-

5 Unnatural Death.

DR.. Hill, master of Downing College,
Cambridge, read a paper at the recent
meeting of the Sanitary Institute of
England, with the above title. He
told his hearers that about one mill
lion Jabies were born annually in
England. Thirty thousand of the mil
lion would die violent deaths from ac
cident, 10000 would die unnecessarily
from tuberculosis, and 100000 more
from other absolutely preventable
causes, such as smallpox, measles,
and scarlet fever. Only $4,000 would
be allowed to live out their natural
lives ,and nearly in 20 would die be-
cause the machine was worn out
One-fourth of all the diseases which
destroy life are absolutely preventable
and fifteen years would at once be
added to it's average duration IL the
practice of hygiene were placed on a
level with its theory. DR.. Hill attrib-
uted the greater number of diseases
over which the individuals affected by
them have personal control to mis-
takes in eating and drinking.-London

Brings many happy thought TO me.
sit and dream till my mind will roam
Back 70 the days that used to be-
Back TO the happy long ago.
And see the faces / used to know.
l see an old lady with frill and cap
And hair so white 1t would shame the snow.
WIN knitting piled up in her spacious lao
And the glimmering needles pass to and fro;
That was the face loved the best
Oearer by far than all the rest.
She used to sit by the broad fire side
When the Holidays were drawing near
And tell US tale Of the Christmas tide
And santa Claus with his sled and deer;
When think of Santa 1 seem to be
A child again at my mothers knee
They found her asleep in her chair one day
Beside the fire in her same old place;
They knew that her spirit had passed away
From the smile she wore on her dear old face
The stockings were finished out to the toe
And tied with yarn at the ends just so.
They took her away 10 the Old Ladies' Home
somewhere over the Jasper sea;
Yet where e'er wander, where e'er roam.
Ny old mothers face comes back to me-
lean see her smile as she used to smile
When was only little child.

The Ohio Centennial.

1t Is now practically settled that the
Ohio Centennial will be held at Bay
view Park.
The next thing Of importance is to
make certain that it will be success.
But one thing can prevent such re-
suit, and mat is competition with an
other exposition of the same charac-
ter in the same year.
1t is now pretty we'll settled that the
centennial of the Louisiana purchase
will be celebrated at st. Louis in 1903,
Here Is the clash. &
There are but two ways to avoid it,
Either hold the St. Louis exhibition in
1904, or the Ohio one in 1902.
There is a precedent for the former
course. Columbus discovered Ameri-
ca in 1892, and the quadri-centennial
consequently came in 1892, but the big
Worlds Fair in chicago in honor of
that event was not held until 1893.
There is an equally good reason for
holding the Ohio Centennial in 1902.
1t is that it is disputed point wheth-
er Ohio was admitted in 1902 or 1903. I
Without going into the minutiae Of
the matter, the state constitution was
framed and adopted in 1902; and un-
der the ordinance of 1887, Ohio was
authorized to send her proper repre-
sentative to Congress upon the adop-
tion of her state constitution.
The first state legislature, however,
did not meet until the spring of 1903,
and the territorial officers held their
places until that body met.
To put the case in a sentence, the
status was this: The requisites to
admission were all complied with in
1902, but did not go fully into effect
until 1903.
More than half the historical au-
thorities give 1902 as the date of
Ohios statehood; the others give 1903.
There would be no violation of the
proprieties by holding the centennial
in 1902. There would be much more
reason for it than there was for cele-
brating the 4O0th anniversary Of the
discovery Of America in 1893 instead
of 1892 W
The people OF Ohio have no power
to postpone the date Of the Louisiana
purchase celebration for one year; but
they can, through the general assemb-
ly which meets one year from January
next, change the date Of the Ohio
Centennial to 1902.
This is what should be done In or.
der to insure grand success. No cit.
izen desires it to be fiasco-Toledo
