Kos Harris prosecuted the case for Mr..
Burwen and O. II. Bentley appeared for
the New York man. Mr.. Bentley tried to
have the case put of and ne read a depo-
sition TO the effect that his client had a
daughter at the point Of death, but Bur
well demanded that the case proceed and
said that he would admit that the de-
fendant would swear TO everything stated
in his application, and then Judge Dale
said the case should be tried and the
statement as to what Wilson would swear
to should be regarded as his deposition.
AIr. Burweu went onto the stand and
testified rs to what Wilson had told him
about the time that taxes became due in
Iowa But Mr.. Bentley said his client
stood square on his written contract. and
that if Mr. BurweI did not understand
the law OF Iowa that was not the lookout

as he saw it. and he gave judgment for
Mr.. Burweu for an amount equal TO the
taxes he had paid on the Iowa land and
the costs O fthe case.

HOW He COMPUTEDIT
Frank NOyes' Trouble With That
Wheat EieId.

- EGaA q AetN-
That wheat field east Of Chisholm creek
is going to get somebody into trouble yet
The latest egriculturists to take q whirl
81 il were Frank Moves and J. D. Dillon.
At a mass meeting held by themselves
the other day they resolved that if there
was anyone in Wichita who knew any
thing about the correct styles in wheat
they did. So they set out for Chisholm
Creek to look at the grain which is now
being out. Secretly both had made up
their minds to fn- fault with the wheat.
But they didn't. When they reached the
wheat field they met two strangers who
were engaged In a violent quarrel about
IT, The strangers had made a bet about
what the wheat would run to the acre.
one man said fifteen bushels to the acre
and the other thirty. After listening
awhile Franz Moves broke into the game
and said that that ought TO be settled
easily. He got Mr.. Dillon TO pick all the
heads for foot square and then count the
grains in the head he then multiplied
these by six, divided all of il by ten and
substracted Zl1s. This brought him just
seventeen bushels 10 the acre and he de-
cided it for the strangers.
The man who lost saiu he didn't think
his figures Were right. asked him what
he knew about farmiuk any way. and 70

returned home on foot disguised with the
whole wheat question.
Meanwhile the wheat is going into the
sheaf To IS beautiful and viii make

mathematicians try to SANDER it.

THE SCARCITY OF POTATOES.

Potatoes have been selling for $1.75 a bushei in Chicago this week. A year ago the price was about 40c. This enor- mSuz advance, coupled with a cores ponding rise in the prices of nearly all vegetables, presents serious eco homie prob,eT for large families with small incomes. Last year the posato crop of the United States was 210.000.0o0 bushels, or nearly three bushels per capita, for which the farmers received $90 eco, 900. The potato growing indus try is not one tc be dsspised. This year the crop is one-t third or one-half less on account of the unfavora ble weather. Illinois, Wisconsin and Michigan are the greatest producers of potatoes, with the exception of New York state. The drouth in the western states was es- pecially disastrous to vegetables.
 The greatest sufferers from the high prices Of potatoes are the small wage earrers. They have learned to depend upon potatoes almost as much as upon bread, yet at $1.75 a bushel this staple food is out of the reach of many. The best thing they can do is to fall back upon rice, which is an excellent sub stitute for potatoes. and is sill req sonable in price.-Cnicago Tribune.

A CLEVELAND PAGEANT
The Great Parade of the Grand Army
 of the Republic.

Cleveland. O.. Sept. 1.-The Grand Army national epcampment reached the zenith of it's glory today.
 Let's brave it. comrades: it may be the last march We will ever take part in"
 This the prevailing sentiment. and they marched through the gaily veterans of a war ended thirty-five years ago-and some of them fell by the wayside.
 The parade was the feature of the day. Everything else gave way to it, and when the march was over the vet eraEs were in no mood to do anything but rest. The belief that it might be their last chance to march shoulder to shoulder is what led many of the age worn veterans to snilingly endure the torture of q four hours tramp through the city's streets.
 It was a quarter past ten when the three signal guns to start were fired The start was made from Euclid and Case avenues. The Grand Army band of Canton was given the place of honor at the head of the column. The citi- Zens' committee of Cleveland followed on horseback. 300 strong. After them came a number of carriages containing prominent visitors. The department of Missouri. escorting the commander in chief. Leo Raussier. came first in the long line of veterans. Illinois came next. the George H. Thomas post of Chicago attracting especial attention by its neat uniforms and excellan marching. Wisconsin followed Illinois. and then came the Pennsylvania posts. their old battle flags attrac cting much attention. Ohio took the left of the column in the second division. which also included the New York veterans. In the third division were posts from , Connecticut. Massachusetts. New Jer- sey. Maine. California. Rhode Island. New Hampshire. Vermont. Potomac. | Virginia and North Carolina. l Included in the fourth division wera Nebraska. Maryland. Michigan. Iowa and Indiana. Minnesota. Missouri. Kansas and Kentucky made the most notable showings in the divisions that , followed.
 | The line was west or Euclid avenue to Bond street. north on Bond to sum- init str ct and west on Summit street into Lake View park and Wood On tario and Seneca streets for the pur- pose of disbanding Bond street from Superior street north was handsomely Y decorated. Distinguished guests re- viewed the parade from a handsomely decorated stand on the west side a. Bond street opposite the Central ar mOry. On a large grand stand at thA
 foot of Bond street were seated sev eral thousand school children. who sang patriotic songs as the procession dis
 banded.
 Out of consideration for the aged vet
 erans the route was shortened to two
 miles. This had the effect of making
 the crowds of sightseers along the linC
 more dense than would nave been tn.
