MINNESOTA NEWS.
Crop Report.

U. S. Department of Agriculture,
Minnesota Section. Climate and Crop
Service, Weather Bureau.-There have
been rains in some part of the state
every day in the week except the Sd;
those in the early part of the week
We're light and scattered, while those
on the 4th and 9Th were more general
and much heavier.
Spring wheat harvest has advanced
northward to Norman county, and it
will reach the northern boundary
about the 18th. Wheat and oat cut
ting is we'll advanced to north of cen
ter of the state, and nearly finished in
the south, where it would all have
been in shock except for the rain. In
the region where the rain was heavy
the uncut grains are badly beaten
down and tangled so that cutting will
be slow and attended with loss. Grain
shocks not in good condition were
soaked with water, and some fears
were expressed that wheat would
sprout, but only one or two cases of
sprOuting are reported.

London, Aug. 1.-THE Washington
correspondent of the Daily Mail says:
Spain's acceptance of the American
peace conditions was so equivocal that
President Mckinley determined to
compel assent to protocol fixing
definite terms, and the answer given to
NJ. Cambon practically amounted to an
ultimatum. 1t is understood that un-
less the protocol is signed Immediate
ly all negotiations will be suspended
and the war vigorously continued.
The United States will not abate it's

A DESPERATE ASSAULT.
Spaniards Attempt to Recapture Cape
San Juan observation-disclosures
by Marines and Warships.

Chicago, Aug. 1.-The Records spe-
cial from it's war correspondent, off
San Juan, says:
A force Of 500 Spanish soldiers made
desperate attempt to retake the
lighthouse on Cape San Juan early
Tuesday morning. They were re-
pulsed by heavy fire from American
warships and by gallant charge of
sailors fighting on shore. The Spanish
loss in killed and wounded was very
heavy. After the Americans gained
possession of the lighthouse recently
it was garrisoned by 40 sailors from
the monitor Amphitrite. This force
was commanded by Lieut.. Atwater
The battle of Cape San Juan was dis
astrous for the Spaniards. One hun
dred dead bodies were strewn along
the shore where the enemy had fought
and then retreated. In the final rout
they left behind them the machine
gun and many rifles and ammunition
boxes, which were thrown away willie
the SpaniaTds were running for their
lives. Not one American was killed,
but Cadet William H. Boardman, of
Lawrence, Mass, was SO badly wound
ed that he will die. 1t was deemed
prudent to withdraw the garrison
from the lighthouse, but it still flies
the American flag and is guarded from
Spanish attacks by the guns of the
Amphitrite.

TeleSraphed the President.

Gov. Clough feels in common with
many citizens that in the matter of as
signment of troops this state has not
beer fairly treated. Recently the fol-
lowing telegram was sent to the presi-
dent:
Under the first call for troops, Min
nesota was the first state in the union
to mobilize troops and get them out of
the state. The Twelfth and Four
teenth regiments, now at Chickamau.
ga. are second to none in the United
States, according to all reports, and at
the same time they are still in camp.
1t seems to me that Minnesota has
been sadly neglected, so many other
regiments, far inferior to Minnesota
troops, in equipment, drill and general
fitness for field work, have been given
preference and sent to the 'front.' Onr
officers and soldiers and also the en-
tire people of our state feel that we
are not receiving fair treatment.
''Is it not possible to get at least one
of our regiments now at Chickamauga
into active service?

A Foolish Wager.

In Paris cafe, as the story is re.
lated in the London newspaper, a man
had been astonishing his fellow
workmen by drinking extraordinary
quantities of water. One of them re-
marked, very sensibly, that it must
be bad for the health to drink so
much. mot a bit of it," was the re-
ply, accompanied by the assertion that
twenty-four pints Of water was about
what a man needed to quench his
thirst in such weather. A bet was
offered and taken. 1t was arranged
that the man should lie on the floor
with a funnel between his lips. Into
this the liquid was to be poured until
the limit of twenty-four pints was
reached. An obliging but ll-advsed
bystander agreed to pour the water in.
The man on his back gulped down
pint after pint with apparent ease.
After a time, however, somebody no.
ticed that he lay motionless and drank
no more; and for the very good rea-
son that he was dead
