Crops Drying Up.

Topeka, Kan, July 10.-The hot
weather in Kansas continues with no
immediate prospect of relief. Corn
is fast shriveling up, the oats crop is
worse than failure and hay is
scarcer than for years. In western
Kansas the conditions are better than
in the eastern part, this being direct
ly opposite to the usual state of af-
fairs. Some of the central Kansas
farmers are shipping their stock to
western Kansas so as to take ad-
vantage of the superior hay crop.

According to the Japan Times
new island has been discovered in the
Sea of Japan. From a statement APP
pearing in the Nichi Nichi it appears
that the island is situated at point
and the Oki archipelago, off the
coasts of the San-in-do, the distance
from either side being thirty miles.
No maps ever published contain any
reference to the island, which is re-
ported to he about two miles in length
and about the same in breadth.

Porto Rico's treatment by the
United States will make American
sway in the Philippines popular, and
will strengthen the annexation senti-
ment in Cuba. Within three or four
years, it is safe to predict, Porto Rico
will be given the full territorial sta
tus. The island has already consid-
cradle home rule, but it viii have
more when it enters the list of ter
ritories. As a territory it will have
made Il big advance toward state
hood. The American people feel well
toward the Porto Ricans. The
islanders are showing an apprecia-
tion of the good treatment given
them by the United States, and are
thus putting themselves in the way
of further favors. Porto Rico has q
bright future.-St. Louis Globe-Demo-

gone so far as to declare that the ma

Evans removed but that proves to be.

that of Alexander the Great. \ round

to his rest The body was placed in
a coffin of gold, filled with costly aro-

the head. The funeral car was en-
bellished with ornaments of pure gold

'ook eighty-four mules more than

Want None of BRYAN

A few days ago a member of the
Virginia constitutional convention in
troduced resolution reading:
whereas, it is reported that Hon
William Jennings Bryan will shortly
visit Virginia, the president of the
convention do invite Mr. Bryan to at
tend and address the convention at
such time as he may Designate" The
convention refused TO consider the
resolution. The members, with the
exception of about IS, are democrats,
but the majority of them evidently
are not enthusiastic over Mr.. Bryan.
Had the convention met at any time
between the summer of 1896 and the
fall of 1900 it is more than likely that
Mr.. Bryan would have been invited
to address it, had he been in the
state, although the Virginia demo-
Gratis never took so kindly to him as
the democrats of some other states.
Mr. Bryan has had his day. Perhaps
he is philosophical enough to accept
the situation uncomplainingly. - Chi
