smoke, followed by whirlwinds of
sparks. ioated before the windows.

At this instant several rifle shots

balls penetrated the hangings OF the

"Ahi" murmured Stop, 1--WE are lost!

Weekly Crop Bulletin.

U. S. Department Of Agriculture,
Nevada Section, Climate and Crop
Service, Weather Bureau.
Carson, Nevada, July "a. 1899.
The week ending Jnly "a, was hot
and dry, the excess of temperature
averaging about five degrees a day
above nornal. High, dry winds pre-
vailed over the State on the Goth and
2lst, and heavy showers occurred at
Alexander, Elko county, on the 18th
with few light sprinkles at White,
Eureka county on the 10Th.
The week on the whole was gener-
ally favorable to the growing crops
and for the harvesting operations, but
a little too windy for the handling of
hay. Reports for the past week are
very favorable and indicate that the
hey, grain and vegetable crops are in
excellent condition and growing nice
ly where water is plentiful for irri-
eating purposes.
Wheat is ripenipg rapidly and will
soon be ready to cut; barley is being
harvested in some of the western dis.
tEicts. The first crop of alfalfa is
nearly all cut and stacked and the
second crop is growing nicely and
looks quite promising. The first crop
is somewhat unsatisfactory in some
sections the yield being lighter than
usual on account of the heavy May
frosts, and the hot drying wiud of
June.
In Humboldt county the hay crop
is very promising, and the outlook for
at least an average yield of both the
tame and wild hay is very encourage
ing. The condition of corn, potatoes
and garden truck is satisfactory, but
a few good showers would be a great
benefit to these crops.
The absence Of rain has increased
the intensity Of prevailing drought
which is seriously affecting the range
and also causing the premature ripeu-
ing of the grain in a few localities
where water for stock and irrigating,
purposes is very scarce.

TOO MUCH M'KINLEY.

The Placerville Democrat does not
mince matters and expresses itself
sometimes in language more en-
phatic than polite, as for instance the
following:
Like an old skintint who is never
ready to die because Of unfinished
business, Mckinley and his hunkies
are multiplying defenseless outposts
and foreign rebellions, as their sole
excuse for being alive. With a home
policy that breeds only hydra-headed
syndicates and strikes, they must
look to foreign complications for an
other four years of good stealing.
Hence the mission Of Marc Mama,
the Kingmaker, abroad. In holy al
lance with Cecil Rhodes, the British
freebooter of African renown, the
rair OF them a connecting a "casus
belli" against the Transvaal republic.
Because President Kreuger will not
suffer lot of British and Yankee
Uitlanders to run and rob his little
Dutch Republic. he is to be sand
bagged by two big predatory huskies,
whose only right is might.
That every plundering expedition.
sent against him. may sink midway
between Cape Colony and Cape Cod
is the devout hope of every decent
man in the world.

elaborate measurements may be made. and
more accurate conclusions derived from the
observations. But as the matter stands
Professor Gilbert is disposed to take this view:
The northern and eastern shores of all the
lakes are rising, or else the southern and west
ern shores are falling Possibly both phenomena
are occurring In Lakes Erie and Ontario the
general level is slowly rising. and this is most
noticeable in Port Dalhousie and Hamilton,
where il amounts to inches a century. AT
Toledo and Sandusky the average rise Is or

water is falling, most conspicuOusly at the
north and northeast At Macknac the rate is

any change of level is now in progress. A fresh
Investigation was needed for the latter pur-
pose
Professor Gilbert has succeeded in enlisting
cooperation which has enabled him TO find out
what has taken place during the last thirty
or forty years Four pairs Of stations were
taken into consideration, each pair being so
made up to combine points lying on gen
orally norttcast-and-south line. These
pairs included Sacketts Harbor and Charlotte
on Lake ontario, Port Colborne and Cleveland
on Lake Erie. Port Austin and Milwaukee for
the Huron Michigan Basin and Escanaba and
Milwaukee for Lake Michigan alone. Official
records Of water levels at these points were
consulted In some cases it was possible 10 find
Trustworthy data for period Of nearly forty
years; in others for only twenty.
HOW MUCH THE SINKING is.
The results attained were as follows: Rea
tively TO Sacketts Harbor. Charlotte sank OO6l
