Special Crop Bulletin.

Des moines, Ia, Oct. 8, l904.-The
week ending Oct. 2, was warmer than
usual, with some local excess of rain
fail. Conditions were more .fav, rabie
to growth than ripening of vegetation.
But the corn fields have been quite
rapidly transformed in color, and full
ly ninety per cent of this great staple
crop is now practically safe. A gen.
eral killing frost at any time before
the tenth would unquestionably i'm
pair the quality of about ten per cent
of the corn crop of the state; but with
that percentage entirely destroyed the
the output of sound corn would be
above the average of the past fifteen
years. A period of drying weather is
needed to prepare the crop for the
cribbing, and to prevent damage to
the portion of the crop that is yet w.
ing on the ground.
Reports indicate an unusually good
yield Of timothy seed, but clover seed
is very light. The pastures are extra
good for the time of the year. New
seeding of grain and grass has done
notably we'll. AS a whole the crop
season of 1904 has been favorable.

Seven Men Who Went Down with
Bridge in Oklahoma Are
Missing.

Oklahoma City, o. T., Oct. 5.-seven
men are missing of a party Of eight men
who went down with the wagon bridge
between Lexington and Purcell Monday
night at nine o'clock after battling with
the swift rush Of water for many hours in
their vain attempt to prevent the bridge
from going, the only connection between
the two towns Judge Hooker, who lives
at Byers, near Lexington, is the man
heard from, but he can tell nothing az
the other men.
AS all telegraph and telephone wires
in the south and southwest portions Of
Oklahoma and the southeastern part Of
the Indian territory in the flooded dis
trict are down, information is hard to
get, but that obtainable is to the effect
that the waters are receding.
Santa Fe, N. NJ, Oct. 5.-Reports re-
ceived from different points in the terri
tory show that the loss Of life in the
floods that have occurred in the past
week was greater than at frst thought
At least 20 persons persisted and all Sec
tons have not been definitely heard
from.

He Realized Illness Would
Prove Fatal.

Paris, Oct. 5.-Fredertck Auguste
BartEoldi, the sculptor, died at
eight o'clock Tuesday morning. Hope
was abandoned Monday, but the pa
tent fingered through the night,

oped three years ago. and showed vio-
lent symptoms during the last few
months, but Bartholdi insisted on COM
tinuing work in his studio. During the
last days Of his work he fully recog-
nized the fatality OF the disease, and
began to design his own tombstone.
This will show an allegorical figure
holding out a laurel wreath. 1t was
completed the day before Bartholdi
took to his bed.
He leaves an uncompleted, impor-
tant group intended to be erected in
Paris in honor Of the aeronauts who
distinguished themselves at the siege
of Paris. The group partakes some-

tude Of the statue Of Liberty, and
shows huge balloon rising above the
figures.
His American works, besides the
statue of Liberty, include the figures Of
Washington and Lafayette decorating
the Place des Etats Unis here, the Bar
tholdi fountain, in the Botanical garden
at Washington, and the bronze group Of
the Leisures of Peace, in New York.
