FAST GRASS GROWING.

Seattle Special to New York World:
One of the best armers stories on rec
ord is that of the Kansas man who said
his pumpkin vines grew so fast that they
Wore the pumpkins all out dragging them
over the ground. But neck and neck with

eastern Washington and Oregon. The

have had endless difficulty in the shifting
of the sands by the winds, which carry
them backward and forward. Heretofore
they nave used wooden ~windbreaks
planted in sand dunes. which are about
as stable as most houses built upon the
sands
Recently they nave found the solution
of their difficulties in a kind of grass inn
ported from the steppes of Russia. This
grass takes root easily in any soil, to
which it's growth gives stability. This
late Munchausen t~estifies that while his
train stopped at Walleela junction they
planted some of this Russian grass. The
wind was blowing a gale and in the di-
rection of the moving train. Heavy bets
We're laid as to which would arrive at
Walla Walla frst-the wind, the grass
or the train. The wind came in first, the
grass was a close second and the train

OF the misguided men. SO many of whom

Gen. Ramon UllOa Dead.

New York. Sept. pa dispatch rom
Panama to the Herald says: Word comes
from Buena Ventura that General Ra-
mon Ulloa, commander of the Colombia
gunboat Boyaca, died in that port Mon
day. No further details have yet been
received. The news caused much grief
here, as General Elloa was universally
esteemed and exceedingly popular. He
was often called the hero of Colon for
defeating Prestan, the leader of the revo-
lutionists in 1885, when, as a colonel lead
ing a detachment of the Colombian army,
he recaptured Colon, being himself Sc
verely wounded in one leg, and routed
the revolutionists. The state department
and commander Of the American warship
in Colon gave General Ulloa we'll merit
ed praise for his bravery. He was once
consul general in San Francisco II for
several years served as secretary of Legal
ton and charge d'affailes in Rome. In
his native state. Cauca, he occupied at
times important civil and mill
tary positions.
