IS IMPROVING.

The Oasis says MT. Frank Parker. of Lochiel, is still suffering from severe injuries received nearly a month ago a the hands of a tramp near Fair bank, who inflicted upon MT. Parker dangerous wounds with a coupling pin. He was accompanied by his brother Lee. who was held at bay by the other tramps while th5ir companions so brutally assaulted Frank. knocking him down and fracturing his skull The two Parkers rode from Fairbank to ranch in the Huachuca mountains and the next day they took the injured man to the military hospital at Fort Huachuca, where he was left. His face was paralyzed on one side. and his skull crushed in on the opposite side. He is reported improving.

able to purchase several mills in Charleston, s. C., and lived in comfort for several years. He travelled much in Europe. A flood swept awaq his fam fly and all the property he owned, and he came to Philadelphia.
 Here he made the acquaintance of Miss Maria Holmes, to whom he be- came engaged. Recently there was an estrangement, and for several days Leese had been melancholy and un- happy.
 Yesterday he told Mrs Sadie Albright, with whom he boarded. that she would probably, never see him again. He asked her to tell Miss Holmes that he had killed himself for her. Mrs. Al bright followed him to Proctor's drug store. saw him write something on a slip of paper and receive a small bot tie.
 Returning to his room, Leese drank the drug immediately. Mrs. Albright heard him fall heavily. She hurriedly summoned Policeman Hayes and Ru- dolph, who had him taken to the Poly clinic hospital. The empty bottle was found on the bureau.

FLAX CROP A PUZZLE.
Both the Acreage and the Yield Are
 in Doubt.

Minneapolis, Minn., July S1.- Agri- cultural papers all over the country speak of the flax situation. Says one well known paper:
 Tn every state where flax is grown in a commercial way there is a decided increase in acreage. but the exact eX- tent of this increase in the northwest where the bulk of the commercial crop is produced, cannot now be determined. In Minnesota and the Dakotas flax was assigned a very much enlarged breadth in the original plan of crop distribu- ton this spring. but in addition to this enlargement, which in itself is heavy, blowing up of wheat and seeding of the land to flax continued in many dis tricts as late as June 15 to 20. The extent to which this substitution added to the flax acreage first planned cannot be measured with any degree of satis faction at this time. nor can it be de- cided even that this late seeding will cut any figure in crop possibilities. In North Dakota and Minnesota espec- ially. with much late seeded flax, the absence of moisture has prevented germination and the fields are uneven ragged and unpromising.
 The paper publishes a table of esti mates of acreage and conditions fur nished by its correspondents which it explains, in view of the unusual de- grees of uncertainty are only tenta- tive. The estimates indicate an acre age of 2,217.OOO, against 1,679,O00 last year, but it is highly probable that these estimates do not fully allow for the area seeded on abandoned -wheat fields.
 The present condition of the crop, says the paper. Is almost as much of problem as is the acreage. Flax, be- ing sown late and being harder than wheat, has not been destroyed as has grain, but in the most important cen ters the crop made but little progress during June. In the Red River valley it ranges from eight inches in height down to failure to even sprout, up to the first of the present month. The paper believes. however, that the gen erous rains which have fallen in July did not come entirely too late to secure a fairly good rate of yield, but a large or even average yield per acre is out of the question. The estimates of acre. age by states are made as follows: Wisconsin S1 .000: Minnesota, 6O5, GOO: Iowa, 243,OOO; Missouri. 77.OOO; Kansas, S7OO0; Nebraska. 2l.OOO; North Da- kota, 621 900; South Dakota, 492,000.

A LARGE LION.
The Animal Killed Near Tombstone a
 Big One.

The mountain lion killed by john Wheat near Last Chance, was brought to town by F. N. Wolcott. The lion evidently was seriously wounded in stead of being killed by MT. Wheat, and crawIed some distance to a mining shaft, where it fell in and was unable to get out. The whereabouts of the lion was easily traced by the contin- ual roar of the wounded animal, who had fallen some forty feet. MT. Vol cot went down the shaft some distance and killed the lion, and later had it hoisted to the surface and brought in to be skinned. The lion was a large one and measured exactly six feet and seven inches, while his weight tipped the beam at no pounds. The animal was an object of much interest at the store tOday.-Prospector

sTABB1NG AFFAIR AT HAVEN

Hutchinson, Kas., July 30.-The citi- zens of Haven, in Reno county, are stirred up over a cutting affair which occurred there yesterday. The parties in the affair are Claud Holiday of Haven, and a stranger who has been around Haven for several days, but whose name is unknown. As a result of the affair, Holiday is seriously wounded.
 It is said that Holiday was the az gressor and had picked a quarrel with the stranger.
