An incident TO show the great pro-
ducing powers of the Red River valley
Is brought out by the report of ex-Sen-
ator Probstfield of Clay county. Mimi.
He has finished his threshing. and re-
ports an average yield Of twenty-one to
twenty-five bushels per acre on his
farm. Some fields went as high as
tw~enty-eight bushels. The yield is not
unusual. but when ii is considered that
some Of the farm has been under cult
Walton for twenty-eight years consecu-
lively, the showing is a remarkable
one. The most recently broken land
OF Mr.. Probstfeld's farm has been In
cultivation seventeen years. The soil
seems ~inexhaustible. and the result is
n most encouraging n for new set
tiers in this remarkable wh~eat-produc-
ing valley.
The two Minneapolis boys arrested
here last week. charged with burglar
izing the Salvation Army headquar-
tiers, are reported TO be old offenders.
They are Wells and Brown, and the
former has been in trouble In this state
before. Sheriff Severn was here last
night after some members of the Far

Brown was chosen as Mr.. Winsloe's

Toe concluded hat he didn't want to
resign, after all, and brought injunction
| proceedings in order to prevent Brown
from exercising the duties of his Office.

Fortress Monroe Will witness nm I'm.
spring Spectacle.

Washington, Aug. Fl. One Of the
largest fleets of warships ever assem-
bled in an American port will be
brought together within the next few
days at Fort Monroe. Already fifty
sever warships are under orders to
rendezvous there, and the orders still
to be issued will raise the total to the
neighborhood of seventy. Naval Of
ficials say IL is difficult TO realize the
extent of such q marine aggregation In
one harbor. The orders hogan issuing
last Monday when five ships were or
dered to Fort Monroe. On the 18th an
other ship was added. On the 18th
eight more We're sent and on the 18th
seventeen more ships were added. Yes
terday's orders include eighteen more
ships. Before the orders began issuing
there We're eight warships at Fortress
Monroe, SO thai the total up to date is
fifty-seyen. The movement of these
ships northward Is due to the close Of
hostilities, and mor particularly to
the desire to get the ships away from
points Of possible fever infection. They
will now be
Put in Thorough Repair
and their crews will be gradually
changed from naval militiamen to sail
ors Of the regular navy. The navy de-
rartment has not yet determined what
ships will go to Havana, San Juan and
other points of Cuba and Porto Rico.
There is felt TO be no hurry about this
until the authority of the United
States is fully established throughout
the islands. In the meantime the mat
ter of policing the shore points Is be-
ing considered and in due time a num-
Der of the light-draft auxiliary craft
and some of the single turreted mont
tors will be used for this coast patrol.
1t is found, however, that only four of
the old monitors Of the Civil war are
tit for this service in Southern waters.
As many naval vessels will be centered
about the West Indies from this time
forward the navy department will
send the new floating dock, recently
bought in New York, down the coast
to Pensacola, Fla, where 1t will be
kept for docking the warships. At
that point also there are good naval
workshops to be worked In commune
ton with the floating dock. The dock
is now being coppered and will be
towed to Pensacola as soon as the Sep
TENDER gales are over.
