Wheat Yield Disappointing.
Early reports from several sections of this
State make an unfavorable showing for this
years wheat crop. Following are extracts
relating to that matter:
Some of the farmers are now preparing to
thresh their crop. They report yield on an
average of about 25 to 30 bushels of wheat to
the acre -Mycrsville Monitor.
Correspondents of Messrs. N. I. Gorsuch
& Son, grain dealers, this city, report that
the wheat crop in this county is much lighter
and the grain inferior in quality to what i,
has been for Il number of years. ADVOCATE
The crop, from the reports we have re-
ceived from all parts OF the county, is very
much lighter than was anticipated. A good
deal of the wheat was down and did not fill

MR.. EVARTS AS A LAWYER.

It is a good thing to be leading
lars. Mr.. Evarts' abilities as lawyer
were several times Of signal value to his
country as we'll as to himself. His Ia
bors in the Johnson impeachment trial
and in the Alabama case are felt to
have been great public services. But
he helped his generation in another waJ
by affording it a great deal of amuse-
ment. A good part of his fame rests
on his Jokes, and to them is due, no
doubt, very much of the kindly senti-
ment his generation-and ours, too
had for him. For years he was the
foremost Yale man, and that was an
other source of his extended reputation.
He worked very hard: he earned great
deal of money; he raised large fam
lily; he was admired, honored and es-
teemed. and he made some imperishab!e
Jokes. 1t is hard TO spare such man.
But it seems that Mr.. Evarts felt that
he had done all the work and had all
the fun that We're coming to him in this
world, and was anxious to be off ana
about whatever concerns may follow
those of earth. The last story that is
told of him is of minister who talked
long to him, as he lay abed, about the
Philippines. Don't you care about the
Philippines" he asked him. NO. was
the dry response. I'm not going there,
anyway" Men smiled when they spoil.,
of Mr.. Evarts living: they will smiia
when they think of him now that he
is gone but the smile is a tribute.

There is only one sword factory In
the United Sta.es-a Massachusetts con-
cern-and that one has ample capacity
for supplying the domestic demand for
swords. even under the stimulating con-
ditions of the Cuban and Philippine
wars. The saber lost it's efficiency as
cavalry weapon as far back as the
civil war. and the increased range of
rifles has made the sword equally obso-
lete as an implement Of actual combat.
