WHITE OTTER SKIN DANCE.
the snc and Fox Indians
Ia OkInhoma.

About 400 Sac and Fox Indians were
assembled ON their reservation in
Oklahoma. few days ago, dancing
the religious otter skin dance. This is
ceremony observed by these Indians
every ten years. 1t is queer doc
trine. The adherents trust all in the
white otter. AS they cannot get the
animal alive in this country, they take
his skin. This is placed ON high pole
In the center OF the eNcited Indians,
and they 20 around it for hours at "a
time, never removing their gaze.
Then when they are so tired they can
go no farther the medicine man losses
them the otter skin, and they bury
their face In IL. While thus situated
they claim TO see all their dead rcla-
tions and get glimpse OF the happy
hunting ground. The dance lasts n
week
During the first two days Of the
dance only so Indians received the
otter skin. They are not given IL un'
I'll the great spirit so directs the medi-
cine man, aud hence there is weeping
and wailing ut the dance. Those whc
have prayed for the otter skin and not
yet received 1t think they are lost
They take this as an evil omen, and
think the great spirit is angry with
them,
There are two white girls taking
purt in the otter dance this year hav.
ing recently married Indians and be.
come converted to the faith.
A great dog feast took place al
night, and 14s dogs were killed and
cooked. The Indians enjoyed their
meat and are dancing hard, hoping tc

Frueality plunged Joseph Jones,
resident of Hackensack, N. d., INTO an
extensive predicament. He was de-
ported as a pauper by the Immigrant
officials after having collected leg
acy in England and sent the money
to his wife in Hackensack. When ne
returned to New York with only few
pennies in his pocket he was pro-
claimed a pauper and deported TO
England by the first steamship. Jones
was notified about one month ago
that relative had died in England
leaving him $4,000. Although he has
lived in the United States ten years
he never took out naturalization pa
pers. lie went to England and col
lected his legacy and sent practically
all of the money to Postmaster jar
Wis. of Tenafy. n. j.. for safekeeplhg
until his return. He first, however,
provided himself with ticket on the
lvernia and calculated every item OF
expense. He planned to land in that
city with just enough to pay car fare
to his New Jersey home.
Great was bis chagrin when the au-
thorities refused to regard his car
fare money as sufficient evidence OF
financial responsibility He told the
story of his legacy and was greeted
with incredulous smiles. He was per-
mitted to send letter to his wife, but
the letter was delayed in transmits
sion. When Mrs. Jones did receive it
she hurried to the barge office. There
she learned that the ship on which
her husband was had sailed. She
heard from him the other day and
sent money for his return.

WEATHER AND CROP REPORTS.

Y Boston. Aug. 22.-The following
bulletin is sent out today by tho u.
s. Department Of Agriculture, New
England station
The past week was favorable TOT
crops not yet matured. The weather
of the week preceding had produced
much damage in portions of Southern
New England, and in south central
Connecticut the drought still prevails.
While the heavy rains of the past
week have been of inestimable value
to corn, potatoes, buckwheat and tur-
nips, they have retarded harvesting
in the northern states. In some IN
stances fields of uncut wheat, oats ana
barley have lodged badly. Under
such conditions the prevailing cloudy
and wet weather has caused consider
able damage. Though the straw OF
early grain was light, and though the
hay crop was short, the late fodder
will be luxuriant. Millet, Hungari-
an grass, and all crops sown for en-
silage are making rapid growth.
The rains have apparently checked
the falling of apples, peaches, and
plums, and have greatly increased the
blackberry yield in northern locall-
ties. No agricultural interest has
been improved more during the week
than dairying. Pastures everywhere
are greatly improved: streams that
were dry ten days ago are now RUM
ing and there has been a marked ln-
crease in the supply of the milk.
While harvesting has beer bindered
other farm operations have been help
ed by the rainfall. Fall ploughing
has now begun, and fields will at once
be prepared for fall seeding.
GRASS. Northern New England
will secure splendid second growth
of grass, but only a portion of the
southern district will be so favored.
Meadows everywhere, however, are
now improving, and pastures that
were brown few days ago are now
green.
GRAIN Corn is late but very
promising. The stalks have m AIDE an
unusually rapid growth during the
past ten days and though the ears are
undeveloped period of warmth and
sunshine will insure a full crop. Lit
tie buckwheat was sown in Connecti-
cut on account of the dry weather.
FRUIT. Despite the large amount
of apples that have fallen, there yet
remains an average crop In a few
instances correspondents have esti-
mated the yield in their individual To-
callies to be less than the normal
but the great majority report the
crop at least medium, and some re-
port it unusually heavy. In dry dis
tricts, marketable apples will be less
than usual, but cider apples will be in
great quantities. A few correspon-
dents from Maine state that while the
trees are laden, the fruit is small.
The Northern Spy will not bear we'll,
but the Baldwins, Greetings, Tai
mans, Golden Russets and Black OK
tfords are generally full. Plums and
grapes are abundant and Furnishing.
VEGETABLES. Beans and late po-
tatoes are doing well, though several
reports from Maine and Vermont
state that blight has affected the lat
ter crop. Rust has seriously injuHd
cucumber and melon vines. Few tur-
nips were sown ia the dry areas.
TOBACCO. Topping has been COM
pleted, and cutting has begun. The
prospects for the crop remain graft
flying.
