Colorado Crop Report.

Denver. July 30,-The weekly crop
bulletin issued by the Colorado sec
tion up to Tuesday states that the TEN
perature for the week has been five
per cent. above normal every day dur
ing the week, and that there have been
many local showers on the eastern
slope The hail storm of the Oath of
the month, while it was severe in
places, did not do much damage.
The report states that the water
for irrigation is gradually falling off
and that many of the streams of the
state are very low. Crops all over the
state are reported as doing well, espe-
cially so with corn, which is growing
very rapidly with the hot weather.
Large shipments of potatoes are be-
ing made, and the cutting of the sec
ond crop of alfalfa is becoming quite
general. The yield is stated to be ex-
cellent.
The report takes up all the counties
of the state and gives the latest news
from over the state. Generally the
crops are found to be in most excellent
condition.

Denver. July 3O-About forty prom
inent western members of the Peoples
party, in conference in this city on
Tuesday agreed upon the following
address to the American people:
"The manifest political unrest which
everywhere appears in the Nation de-
monstrates the dissatisfaction of the
American people with. the present
management of government and argues
the necessity of the reform forces com
ing together in united action at the
ballot box to obtain proper legislation
whereby the right of the people to self
government may be had for themselves
and their posterity; therefore. we, the
Populists of the United States, hav-
fng this day at the city of Denver,
Colorado, united our forces. with the
distinct understanding that all past
differences as to policy shall be and
now are permanently settled and ex-
perience having demonstrated the fu-
tility of any attempt to secure the en-
actment of our principles through
either the Republican or Democratic
parties, we believe the time is now at
hand when the united Peoples party
should declare itself emphatically OPP
posed any affiliation with either of
those parties and unqualifiedly in favor
of independent national political ac-
ton.

PAINTS HUSBAND YELLOW.
Partisan Wife Uses Iodine Brush on
Spouse and Thereby Carried
Her Point.

Paris recently had novel sensation
in a case of misconduct which carried
with it the punishment most dreaded
by Frenchmen-public ridicule.
Nine. Passier is in Beaujon hospital,
a victim to jealousy. She and her hus-
band had been invited to a wedding.
The evening before she received from
her dressmaker gown so ill-fitting as
to be absolutely unwearable, and re-
marked to her husband:
''That settles it; we can't co."
"You can't, but can," replied the
husband, proceeding to prepare dress
shirt and evening clothes, after the
French fashion, for daytime weddings.
Nine. Passier wept, implored, threat
ened, in a vain att smpt to make her
husband change his determination. In
the morning the husband, on dressing,
glanced into the mirror and nearly fell
in fit on finding his face a deeper yellow
than that of the yellowest Chinaman.
During the night his, jealous spouse
had painted his face with iodine.
Beside himself with rage, the husband
beat his wife. She gained her point,
however,, for, although she went to a
hospital, he went topyison and not to the
wedding. = ... 81. 80 sss *:s.s==

OWNS UNIQUE VESTMENTS.
derful Piece of Handiwork of
Native Filipino Sisters.

Bishop Phelan, of Pittsburg, owns a
remarkable set of church vestments,
They were brought into this country
from the Philippine islands at the time
OF the return of the Tenth Pennsylvania
regiment.
During the fighting in and about
Manila one of the old churches was de-
stroyed. A soldier saved from the
wreckage the MISUNDERSTANDING,
manip1e, stole, veil and burse, and
brought them to this country.
1t is believed that they have been in
use nearly 100 years, judging from
their style. They are supposed to be
the handiwork of native Filipino sis
tiers.
The body of the vestments is covered
with dainty traceries. Scenes from the
Old Testament are done in exquisite
needle painting. The passion flower
and ether emblematic designs are in
troduced
The needlework is so fine that only
experts can justly appreciate it.. The
lace work is frosty and feathery and
OF that rare old color and design that
women connoisseurs rave about.
The principal color of the vestments
is red, which makes them proper for
all feast days of the martyrs. The lin
ings, which are dark olive green, are
OF raw Japanese silk The chasuble is
somewhat smaller than that used in
this country to-day, but may be used.
A peculiar feature Of the vestments
Is that they can be rolled into ball,
turned, twisted and when released
from the manipulation they resume
their original form without crease.

ON Justices Is L1belous Which
They Have Power to Punish.

The Missouri supreme court has hand
ed down decision in the case of Editor
Shepherd, the Warrensburg newspaper
man, who was fined $500 several months
ago on the charge of contempt in that
he published an article attacking the
court. The opinion. which is written
by Justice Marshall, and concurred in
by all the other judges, is very lengthy
and cites cases beginning with the time
Of Caesar to show that this court has
the inherent power and jurisdiction to
punish contempt summarily."
After saying that the article in Shep-
herds paper had in reality attacked the
honesty, integrity and purity of every
branch OF the state government and of
the several officers, it continues: IF
these charges are true, the persons who
are thus charged should be prosecuted
and removed from Office. On the other
hand, anyone who makes such charges
should be prepared to make some sort
OF decent showing of their truth"
Judge Marshall says that instead of
proving his charges or making the
amende honorable" by withdrawing
them and apologizing for his offense,
Shepherd challenged the jurisdiction OF
the court, and sought to escape on tech
n1cal grounds. The action of the court

SITE OF NEXT GREAT WAR.
Belief That Next Conflict of United
States VIII BE on south Amer
lean Soil,

The general staff of the army has de-
cided to send agents into South America
to study military conditions there, as
preparation for war, involving the
United States, which may be fought in
that part of the world This policy is
based on the conclusion that the next
conflict of the American government
will be for the maintenance Of the Mon
roe doctrine.
1t is said to be the opinion of the gen.
eral staff that hostilities will ultimate
ly come with one or more European
powers over the principles embraced in
President Monroe's message.
Several army officers will be sent to
South American capitals. They will be
accredited as military attaches to the
United States legations in these capt.
tails.
1t has come to the knowledge of the
authorities here that military agents OF
European capitals are busily engaged in
collecting information as to the charac-
ter of the roads, the country generally,
and the food supply in South America.

ton is naturally regarded with suspi-

After the fall Of Sanders and the de-
struction Of his line Longstreet rapid

Federal outposts. Before looking the
ground over he was eager to attack and
finish the business, but after surveying
the new Fort Sanders changed his
mind and concluded to wait for >re-en-
forcements from Virginia.
Just in front of the fort the Confed-
crate sharpshooters found convenient
blockhouses consisting of two log barns
that the Federals had not destroyed, as
is the custom on retreating from that
ground. Securely sheltered behind the
thick log walls the marksmen picked
off men at the fort. Realizing the dam
ger from this point Burnside ordered
the Seventeenth Michigan infantry to
destroy the sharpshooters' lair at once.
The regiment set out at night and,
moving slowly to the picket line, charg-
ed from there on a run. The sharp
shooters opened fire, but the Yanks out

Some Odd Ears.


In human beings the two ears fire.
huently do not match, though, as both
cannot be properly seen at the samo
time, this defect usually escapes our
notice. The same thing is true to some
extent of monkeys and quadrupeds,
and owls have one ear directed up
ward and the other downward, which
enables them to hear both above and
below as they fly.
Taking the word 'ear" in q broader
sense, there are some animals which
possess two kinds Of these organs. A
fish, for example, has pair Of ears
fmbedded in it's head, and also a pc
euliar streak-the lateral line-running
down each side of the body, which
appears to perform some Of the func-
tions Of hearing, as it is concerned
with the detection Of movements in the
surrounding water.
The two feelers which project from
the head Of an insect are almost GER
tainly auditory organs, and when these.
are supplemented by ears Of another
kind we can say that the ears are not
all alike.
Grasshoppers and locusts have extra
ears In their legs, and the common
house fly has pair Of little club shaped
projections behind the wings (bat
ancers) which probably help it to hear.

Sanders, lined up again on the crest

Things had reached a crisis. 1t was
Burnside's engineer had said that the
fort would be ready to withstand at
tack and Sanders forlorn defense of
the outposts would end. But the engi-
neer had privately arranged with San
ders to fight on until actually driven
from the hill. Between the rail pile and
the Armstrong house there were some
standing of orders or because the fire
was too hot for them the Carolinians
halted at the cedars and lay down,
firing from there their first shots of the
charge.
The halt Of the Carolinians any one
at distance could see was military
blunder. Every second of grace was a
godsend to Sanders, with his shaky
line. One of the spectators of the at
fair was Captain Winthrop, a foreign
aid on the staff Of Colonel Alexander,
Longstreet's artillery chief. Winthrop
was with the napoleon guns at the
Armstrong house. Seeing the awkward
halt, he rode forward through the pros
trate ranks on to the Federal barri-
cade. A dozen rifle muzzles greeted the
daring aid, who had formerly been a
captain in her majesty's Twenty-third
foot regiment. One bullet pierced his
collar bone. and he fell across the neck
OF his charger. who reeled and carried
his disabled rider back to the Confed-
crate lines.
Inspired by Winthrop's gallant ride,
the Carolinians arose and rushed for
the barricade. Sanders. able soldier
that he was, knew the hour had come.
He walked up and down the line, urg-
Ing his men to fight. Standing head
and shoulders above the barricade. he
was a fine target for the Confederates
and was shot down just as the enemy,
coming on with yell, poured over the
breastwork. 1t was then half past
O'Clock. When word Of Sanders heroic
death reached the fort he had fought
so CALAMITY to protect in its weakness

defenders of Knoxville it was in a
