"The crop situation as a whole is very encouraging, says Banker Henry Clews. ''In spite of the reduction of wheat acreage the present outlook is for crop of about 6400O0,0Q0 bushels This is more than 10O,O0O,000 decrease compared with the crop of 1901; but last year was q banner year, and the prospect is that we shall have wheat crop that has been exceeded only once; that was by the crop of 1898, when the total yield was 675,000,000 Nothing is yet definitely known concerning the corn crop, though a larger acreage is considered inevitable in view of recent high prices. and a second failure such as last year is beyond all reasonable probabilities. The same is true of cot ton, in which the slightly increased acreage and improved conditions sug- gest q somewhat larger crop than the last one. If these three important crops turn out well we may be assured of another season of good business in the south and west. A good surplus for export is highly desirable, as the recent tendency of our foreign trade has been towards decreased exports and diminished trade balances; and it would be much more convenient for Us to ship corn, cotton and wheat next winter than gold, of which we may have plenty, but which it is desirable to retain if we are to preserve easy money rates"

A CLEVER IOWA LAWYER.

Judge Hubbard of Iowa. who is a great friend of Speaker Henderson, is well known in his stale as railroad lawyer. He is tall and thin, with q mild-mannered countenance and sober dress that makes him look as if he had just come out of a Sunday school and had no business in this wicked world. He is keen-witted and never lets an opposing lawyer get the best of him if he can help it.
 The other day he appeared in the United States supreme court in case where the attorney general of Iowa ar- gued on the other side The attorney general was quite vociferous in his argument and also pounded the table i'll front of him quite heavily to the ev- ldent annoyance of the justices, some of whom frowned while the perform 'ance was in progress. This fact did not escape the watchful Hubbard. At the conclusion of his opponents speech he arose.
 May it please the court" he said T could smash this table. I couel pound it into splinters I could make this court room echo with my loud voice. And I would" he added. glancing significantly at the justices before him. eff were addressing country jury

HEARD IN PASSING

Congress is planning to adjourn July 1, no matter what business remains undone. It will be an easy matter to clear up the calendar by that time, if the statesmen are diligent, but the chances are that they will neglect to do much which should be done, and would neglect it just the same if they should stick to their posts until next winter-New Haven Union.
 The New York World aptly remarks that President Cleveland is surely be- coming greater by degrees" So. we may add, at this season are about 793, 169 men and women. more or less. And there is no doubt that the young boy or girl graduate who has just re- ceived his or her A. B. feels much greater than men like MT Cleveland, Mark Twain and others who are re. ceiving degrees of more pretentiouG character.-Hartford Post.
 Relatives of Mrs Florence Maybrick in Mobile have received private cable adyices from London that she will be pardoned during coronation week. Mrs Maybrickf will be expected to re- turn to her old home in Alabama as soon as she is released from prison.

All that was mortal of the late Rob- ert J. Vance of New Britain was laid at rest today in the town that has honored him with the highest gifts in it's power, and the town that he loved to write about to talk about and to live in. Bob" Vance, as his friends called him, was q self-made man, if ever there was one. Thrown on his own resources at an early age, he fought his way upward and would probably have gone still higher had not the hand of death interefered. He be. gan life as many another boy did, in the factory, but by perseverance he gradually rose to the highest and most responsible position in what was known as the Old Knitting Co in New Britain. It was then he looked about for some thing better and higher, something that would give his intellects full play The result was that he launched into journalism. and it can be said truly of his case that great things came out of small beginnings. In a room scarcely 7x9, and in which there was no place for roll top desks or newspaper file racks, the first editorial work on the New Britain Observer was begun. The mechanical part of the work was done in one of the job printing offices of the town. Ere long, however, more room was needed and secured, and later other additions were made, until finally MT Vance found himself i'll his own building and editor-in-chief of daily paper. the Herald, which on more than one occasion let the people of the state understand that it's editor was writer who had convictions and was not afraid to give expression to them. MT yance's career was cut short, however, and long ago he was given warning that his time would come altogether too soon. A young man with bright future before him, his friends in the newspaper profession and out of it re- gret his death.

The work of caring for the feeble
 minded people that are found i'll every community is one of no small
 magnitude, and as the number of inn beetles is increasing annually the work also increases. At q convention held at Fort Wayne recently q com mittee was appointed to look after this work. It is curious to note, re- marks the Outlook, how causes and cures of an evil ramify their roots
 One potent source of imbecility is recognized in the prenatal influences of mother who is wretched ill body and mind, worn by anxiety and worry, tortured and tornented by the drunk enness and profifgacy of her unborn chiId's father. It is equally true that the intemperance of the man may of ren be traced to lack of cheerful home and rational amusements out side of the home-clean theaters, cof- fee rooms, and the like One way of prey tie uOldC WOIl3 NOuld OC to provide cheap and good theatrical amusement for people of small means and crowded quarters. Here the pre- yention joins hand with the ameliora- fion, for the cleverest heads of insti- futions for the feeble minded have found that unmistakably the best thing to wake up these imbecile minds is to let them take part in some diverting comic opera or amusing farce The educational value is un- questionable.

Only a Rluw

SCRANTON, Pa, June 19.--The fact that the joint miners convention called by President Mitchell is set for month hence is interpreted by the operators here to be an effort to bluff the oper- ators and buoy up the strikers. A representative of one of the companies said: .The mine workers leaders made this call with no expectation that the soft coal men will join ill their strike. but solely for the purpose of giving the strikers something to look forward to. But come what may, the position of the operators cannot be changed. It would be suicidal for the operators to make even the semblance of con- ceSSiOn.v

West Virginia Strike a Failure.


 ROANOKE, Va, June 19.-A special to the Roanoke Times from Eckman, w. Va, says the strike situation has suddenly taken on a complete change. It looks now as if there was not the least chance for the strikers to win, as such large number have returned to work that those who would have re mained away and fought it out have become discourag ged, and many of them have taken up their tools and are go ing back into the mines. The mine owners are jubilant over conditions and think the end of the strike is near. Many coke ovens which. have been dark for ten days have been again lighted up. Guards are still being kept at the mines, but not in such large number as previously.

4 NATIONAL STRIKE
Gall For a Special Miners
 Convention Issued
MITCHELL WILL CONTROL ACTION.
A Total of 25O,ooO Men May Leave Work In Coal Mines of Various States as the Result of
 This Meetiug.

l INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, June 19.- l The call for a special convention of the i United Mine Workers of America to be | held at Indianapolis July IT next has been issued from the miners headquar- i ters here. The call is addressed to the local unions of the United Mine Work CTS and is signed by John Mitchell na- 1 tional president, and w. B. Wilson, na- tional secretary and treasurer. The convention is called for the pur- 1 pose of considering proposition for a | general suspension of work by the coal miners of the United States in support of the anthracite miners who are now on strike.
 This step is considered here to be in line with the general policy Mir. Mitch ell apparently adopted soon after the anthracite strike was declared to bring about an acute situation in the coal market and in that way force the an thracite operators to terms Still it is pointed out here that if MT. Mitchell does carry through his general plan by declaring bituminous strike to aid the miners now out he will cause near " 100000 men to break their contracts with their employers.
 It is held that Mir. Mitchell will con- trol the action of the convention abso- lutely and that whatever course is adopted it will be as he wishes. There are in the anthracite fields 1000 men now out, in West Virginia nearly 30,00O out and in Michigan 25,000 who have been on strike for some time, and it was learned that President Patrick Gill day of the central Pennsylvania bitu- minous miners, who recently saw MT. Mitchell, had pledged support from the 45,OO0 men whom he controls
 This makes total of 250,000 miners whose delegates will be entirely ruled in their actions by MT. Mitchell.
 1t is said that these men, with the possible exception of the Pennsylvania soft coal miners, are strongly in favor of strike, because, being out them selves, they desire all the aid they can get. There is q prospect, too, that all the bituminous miners in Illinois will take a step similar to that taken by the men under Gilday.

SPENCER FACING DEATH.
The Thoughts That Occupy the Aged
 Philosophers Mind.

Philosophers Mind.
 Old people have many reflections in common. Doubtless one which l have now in mind is very familiar.
 For years past, when watching the unfolding buds in the spring, there has arisen the thought, shall I ever again see the buds unfold? Shall 1 ever again be, awakened at dawn by the song of the thrush? Now that the end is not likely to be long post poned, there results an increasing ten- dency to meditate upon ultimate ques- tions.
 It is commonly supposed that those who have relinquished the creed of ChriStendOm occupy themselves eX- clusively with material interests and material activities-thinking nothing of How and Why, of the Whence and the Whither. It may be so with some of the uncultured, but it is certainly not so with many of the cultured. Tn the minds of those intimately known to me the riddle of existence fills space far larger than the current con- ception fills in the minds of men in general
 After studying primitive beliefs and finding that there is no origin for the idea of an after life save the conclu- sion wliich the savage draws from the notion suggested by dreams, of a wan dering double which comes back on awaking and which goes away for an indefinite time at death; and after contemplating the inscrurs5le relation between brain and consciousness, and finding that we can get no evidence of the existence of the last without the activity Of the first, we seem obliged to relinquish the thought that con sciousness continues after physical organization has become inactive.
 But it seems a strange and repug- nant conclusion that with the cessa- tion of consciousness at death there ceases to be any knowledge of having existed. With his last breath it be- comes to each the same thing as though he had never lived.
 And then the consciousness itself what is it during the time that it con- tinues? And what becomes of it when it ends? We can only infer that it is q specialized and individualized form of that infinite and eternal energy which transcends both our knowledge and our imagination and that at death its clements lapse into the infin- ite and eternal energy whence they were @5riyed.-From His "FacIs uur, CommentS'
