CIVIL GOVERNORS
TO BE APPOINTED
In CUBA AND PORTO RICO
Governor Roosevelt Strongly Urges
the Appointment of General Wood
for Cuba.

NEW YORK, Nov. i3.-A special TO

President Mckinley Will tell congress

ate appointment Of these governors.

the man to effect the change with the

The president is inclined TO agree

Wheat. Oats, harley and Rye Are
Doing We'll i'm south Dakota.

Huron, S. D.--Bulletia No. Z. from the
government weather bureau in this
city, gives the following concerning
.ctop conditions in South Dakota:
The temperature averaged consider
ably higher than during the preceding
week, and the latter part was warm,
with considerable sunshine. Fair TO
gorod rains occurred generally, and in
some localities they were heavy. The
soil is amply moist generally, and some
fields in southeastern localities are too
wet. A little hail is reported. but no
damage resulted. The conditions were
highly favorable for wheat, oats, bar
ley, rye and grass, which made good
growth, and stimulated growth in corn
that was well started; but there Is a
report of corn replanting being neces-
.sary in some fields in scattered locali-
ties, because of the seed rotting.
Where frost-bitten on the 18th, wheat,
and most of the oats and barley have
recovered and are making good prog
.ress, but some fields of oats and bar
ley i'll east-central ana northeastern To-
.~calities still show the effects of the
frost 10 some extent.
Corn planting has progressed slowly,
and there is considerable of this work
yet to do in central and northern local
tiles. the rains and damp soil having
retarded it. There is a little report OF
cut-worms being active in the growing
corn.
Early-sown fax has started well, but
seeding Is progressing slowly. There is
some report of ea~rly-planted potatoes
rotting, but not generally. Marked inn
provement in prairie grass is reported
generally, and the condition of the
range west of the Missouri river is re-
ported as excellent,
With sunshine and normal weather,
marked progress in all vegetation may
be anticipated the coming week, espe-
cially in wheat, oats and barley. Tie
early-sown is now well stooled, and
conditions are propitious for a luXuri-
ant standing Of the late-s0wn.

New Light on the Burning of the
Negro Sam Hose.

Negro Sam Hose.
Chicago, June 6.-When the negro
Hose was burned by a mob at New
nan, Ga, prominent colored people of
Chicago raised q fund and sent a local
detective named Levin TO investigate
all the circumstances. He reported at
a meeting held at Bethel church that
the Burning of Hose was fully pre-
meditated and was openly advocated
by many of the leading men in the
community as an example to the col
ored people. He said he learned pos
itively that while Hose actually killed
Crawford, Mrs. Crawford had admitted
that the negro did net modest her in
any way.
one of the most astonishing charges
made in his report is that the railroad
officials who made up the special train
for the l~ynching party after the cap
ture of Hose actually advertised the
contemplated burning and sold tickets
TO people attracted by these advertise
ments. Detective Levin said that the
torture and hanging Of The aged col
ored preacher Elijah Strickland was
without a shadow Of reason.
