Gentry's Dog and Pony Show gave two
performances in this city. yesterday. and
both Of them were well attended AMI
there We're none who went away without
being perfectly satisfied in every way.
The show is Il novelty in every way. The
hest, not so very long. but everything be
ing in the best of condition and unique in
every way. There is but one person who
takes any active part in the performance.
The work and tricks are all done by the
animals and too much cannot be said of
them. They are all clever ana kind ana
could not look better under any condi
tons. There are two elephants. one
zebra. 80 ponies ana - dogs ana about Is
monkeys. Their tricks and acts are too
numerous to mention. The elephants per
form by themselves ana are very clever.
The ponies drill as well as any company
of soldiers ana respond to everything
that is said to them. The dogs are as
clever as possible and the monkeys are
very funny The tricks are almost all
new ones. This is considered one of the
best lessons that can be taught child
and the reception that is rendered the
little ones after the performance delight s
them all. they having the privilege Of
riding the ponies and playing with all
the animals they desire The company

CROP BULLETIN,

The weather bureau at Seattle has
resumed sending out Its weekly bulle-
tin OF climatic conditions as affecting
crops, and we publish the first OF these
below, and they will constitute fea.
ture of our meteorological record dur
ing the growing and harvesting sea.
sons. The report is made up on the
10th inst. and reads:
The winter was an unusually mild
and open one, which had very bene-
fetal effect on the growing crop Of
fall wheat. There was but one mod
crate cold spell, that OF the middle OF
February, and no severe ones, conse-
quently fruit trees we're uninjured.
There was no snow worth mentioning
west of the Cascades, and very little
east Of them.
March was very mild and pleasant
month, with o temperature about 5
degrees above normal throughout the
State. Spring opened early, fruit
trees beginning to bloom about the
18th, and coming into general bloom
by the 3lst, excepting apple trees.
The month was not excessively wet,
consequently there was opportunity
for spring blowing and seeding which
was extensively done.
Grass grew luxuriantly throughout
the winter in the western section.
Pasturage is now very good, and clover
has u fine start.
The week ending Monday, April
10th, was showery, although it was
warm, except on the 7th, 9Th and 9th.
Wet weather interrupted blowing and
spring seeding, which is considerably
more than half done. There were
heavy showers on the 9th, with high
winds which stripped off good many
fruit blossoms. On the 7th rain, hail
and snow fell alternately, the snow
melting as it fell, and the temperature
fell rapidly. Heavy frosts were gen.
eral over the State on the mornings
of the 9Th and 9th, and it is feared
they may have done considerable in
jury to fruit buds and blossoms. APP.
Piles are hardly far enough developed
to be injured. The greatest damage
if there is any, is to apricots, peaches,
prunes and cherries. Up to the 9Th
of the month the outlook for fruit
crop was one of the most promising
ever known, as the trees. were laden
with bloom, and there had been no
cold rains or frosts.
Fall wheat is reported to be in an
especially f1ourishing condition. 1t
is well-stooled, of good stand and
color. heavy growth, and probably a
month earlier than year ago. Early
gardens are up in excellent condition.
Considerable potato planting has been
done on dry soils.
East of the mountains farmers are
nearly through sowing spring wheat
and oats. Until the cool spell of the
7th begun it was considered that the
season was fully four weeks earlier
than that Of last year, or about a week
to ten days in advance OF the normal.

no little excitement and considerable
damage, Monday afternoon. from a
runaway nearly the length of the bust
ness part of Fourth street. The team

trance OF the Olympia l.. and NJ. Co.'s

glass windows on the right hand of the
Main street entrances to the State Lii
brary One horse was badly cut on the
shoulder by the glass. Aside from
broken glass the damage is not large.
A few sacks of flour were distributed
along the street with impartiality if
not discretion. The pane OF glass
broken is large one, and it will cost
from $3.50 to 5000 to replace it.
Oily reports that on Sunday night a
would-be burglar was treated to new
experience while on an exploring ex-
petition at the residence of Will
White, on Central street. 1t seems
that the daughter OF Mr.. White had
observed a man prowling about the
premises, early in the evening, and
when her father came home from
church, informed him of the fact.
Mr.. White then set trap for his noe
turnal visitor. He turned out all the
light and waited results. Very soon
the burglar was seen sneaking up the
walk towards the house. Then Mr..
w. stepped out, and covering the mis-.
creant with revolver, ordered him to
step forward for parley. This, under
the circumstances, seemed to be an
imperative condition for an armistice,
and the hobo Immediately resolved to
"take his medicine" whatever it
might be. The dose was nothing
more palatable than dry sermon on
the improperly of deliberate frac-
ture of one of the commandments
handed down from Mount Sinai. II
that don't cure him, it is safe to say
saltpeter won't save him.
A good joke is going the rounds on
Judge Millett. 1t seems that noted
palmist and mind.reader was on the
excursion-boat which carried Bryan
from this city to Tacoma, whose sole
object of the trip seemed to be to study
the lines in the palm of the disting-
uished gentleman who was the hon.
ored guest of the hour. After he
had made this examination, having
the time at his disposal, he proceeded
to study the dips and spurs and
angles in the palms of ordinary
mortals, and finally reached the hand
of Judge Millett. After the usual
"taffy" had been ladled out to his
honor, the expert in signs and mind
reading, fairly electrified the crowd
who we're rubber-necking the pro-
ceeding, with: "Now, sir; you will
live to be IA years of age, if you stop
drinking" Those who know how
radical An exterior the Judge presents
to the alcoholic habit and traffic,
may imagine the sensation this opin-
ion produced. 1t may be said, how
ever, that the majority were quite
confident that the palmist must have
had the palm of George Hazard or
Jessie Murphy still impressed upon
the retina, rather than to adopt the
belief that the Judge keeps a private
