Polly. who showered the happy couple
with rice as they started away on car
riage trip.
"Mr. and Mrs. Bingham are popular
youngpeople, and the Clippes joins their
host of friends in extending congratula-
lions and good. wishes"
'oThose wretched children" breathed
Mrs. Peters, starting to her feet, while
Pauline and Polly covered their guilty
heads with the bed clothes.
Don't faint, mother, don't. His e.
teemed fellow-citizen is going right
down to interview Editor Dodge, and
while I'm gone you can write up his
obituary. I'll guarantee that it will be
founded on fact at least. Where's my
hat?"
But Mrs. Peters was dissolved in
tears, and before her husband sue

Bingham returned from their ride in q
state Of satisfaction that even the Clip
per was powerless to disturb. After
they had read the Clippers account OF
their wedding Mr.. Bingham plucked up
courage TO propose that they regard it
as q prophecy and proceeded Inn
mediately to fulfil it.
Mrs. Peters, in the awkward circum-
stances in which they were placed, ap-
proved Of the idea, and Mr.. Peters, after
time, was persuaded to tip his hat at o
less murderous looking angle, and de-
parted in search, Of Parson Hildreth In
stead Of the moving spirit Of the press,
while Mr.. Bingham sought the town
clerk to procure the license.
At the intercession Of their sistsr, the
tenn Of imprisonment was shortened
for the twins. and they emerged from

effect that they would play aothing
but funerals after this.
But Editor Dodge never really under-

Then he turned and ran down the path
with stumbling footsteps, toward the
lonely, half-ruined cabin that he called
home, and threw himself on his hard
bed with groan of physical weakness
and pain.
Meanwhile the tiny tongue of flame
crept slowly upward with soft crack
ling sounds; once it blazed brightly for
q minute, then sank to a feeble point of
blue fame, struggled weakly as If for
life and went out. A little curl of smoke
wound upward and marked the place
where the flame had been. Then It dis
solved slowly in the clear air, and moth
ing was left but the heap Of kindling
on the rude doorstep, with the few
charred sticks, to mark the spot where
IL had burned, as q silent witness of
the frustrated design Of the avenger.
As the first early rays of the sun
peered over the mountain and sent ray
of light into the window Of the cabin,
Dixon swung open the heavy door and
stopped on the sill in dumb astonish-
ment at the sight that met his eyes.
Then in a moment he had grasped the
truth. This was what the sly looks
and unusual manner of his neighbors
meant, was it? And they had failed in
their cowardly work. What II they had

With an imprecation strong and deep,
the man turned and called his wife to
his side. She came, looked where he
pointed silently at their feet and then
raised her eyes to his dark face in a
frightened, questioning glance. Before
he could answer the unspoken inquiry
he caught sight of a shambling figure
coming. Something in the mans pallid
face made Dixon turn to his wife and
say quickly: you'd better go inside.
He wants to see me, guess" and she
obeyed silently.
Dixon kicked the debris from the step
and advanced toward the advancing
figure until he and Hawkins stood face
TO face in the narrow worn path. The
visitor looked into his face with wav.
ering, uncertain glance, his thin lips
parted in meaningless smile that was
horrible to see and then he began to

The listener knew at the first word
that the poor wretch before him was
insane. AS the hollow voice went on,
betraying the whole fendish plot to
his quickened intelligence, he caught
the man suddenly by the shoulders and
held him with grip that made him stop
short IN his rambling talk and give a
little cry Of pain.
''See here" cried Dixon, turning the
man around in the path SO that he faced
toward the mountains, ''you get out of
here quick while I've got enough hold
on myself to keep from shooting you.

leased the motionless figure.
Hawkins staggered, recovered his
balance and looked up into the stern

WORLDS WHEAT CROP FOR '99
VIII be According TO English Esti-
rnnte o24 ono 600 bushels Short

Washington, June 15-The agricultural
department today issued a circular giving
the substance of reports received by it
up to June 10 on the condition OF foreign
crops. Il says that British commercial
estimate tentatively puts the worlds
wheat crop Of 1889 at 1904 900, 900 bushels,
against 2.74SOO0. 900 bushels, or nearly SO
per cent. Another estimate makes a re-
duction Of %, 600. 900 bushels. Reports from
the country around Odessa and Nilo.a-
vieff, Russia. represent the grain crops,
both wheat and rye, as almost destroyed
by drought Taking into account the inju-
ries heretofore reported in three or four
other provinces within the winter wheat
region, it IS evident that the crop OF
bread grain for the empire as whole
cannot be a giod one. 1t has even bean
suggested that the crop may not exceed
that Of 1887.
Information from Germany Is scant, but
there has been complaint OF deficient sun
shine and warmth and the harvest was
thought lucky to be a week or two later
than usual Later advices indicate bet
ter weather in various parts Of Germany.
According to the official report on the
Austrian crops for the middle Of May
wheat and barley promised about an aver
age yield. but rye and oats were below
that standard.
In a report of the Hungarian ministry
Of agriculture issued May 20, the area IN
der wheat was estimated at about 7S00, 900
acres. against 10000 acres last year, and
on this basis. taken in connection with
conditions Of plant some commercial es-
Inmates put the crop as high as 90
bushels. against 140o0.e)0 in 1898. though
other estimates are less favorable.
Severe drought has prevailed in Rouma-
MIA and the wheat and rye crops are not
expected to give more than half Of an
average. Weld. Other cereals also have Suf-
fered. The reports from Bulgaria are bet

Accounts from Italy are favorable and

Practically No Cattle Market

The Wichita hog market yesterday was

70 this IS the fact that farmers every

this is possible, and the stock shipments
in consequence IangUish. Yesterday the

Of wagon stuff. All the offerings were
promptly sold and al good prices. As
compared with al other western mar
kets, This point showed very satisfac-
