CROP REPORT.

The Weather Bureaus weekly summary
of crop conditions is as follows:
East of the Rocky Mountains the tenn
perat ure during the week ended July IL
was highly favorable, but in the Pacific
Coast States and over the western por-
tions of the middle and northern plateaus
districts it was unseasonably cool, with
light to heavy frosts on the 18th in " ash
ington and Oregon. Too n UGH rain him
dered farm work in the central gulf dis
tricts and in portions of the Ohio Valley
and Middle Atlantic States, while need of
rain is beginning to be felt in Northern
New England, portions of the Carolinas,
over the greater part of Texas, and in
Southern Colorado. Drought has teen
relieved in the north Pacific Coast dis
tricts, but continues with increased Sc
verify in the southern plateau region.
Corn has experienced a week of ex-
ceptionally favorable weather conditions
and has made rapid growth generally in
all districts. Very few unfavorable re-
ports respecting this crop are received
In the Missouri Valley and in portions
of the upper Ohio Valley and Middle At
lantic States Corn has, however, suffered
somewhat from lack of cultivation, and
in Texas the late planted is being injured
by drought
Better weather for harvesting winter
wheat prevailed than in the preceding
nd has 10 llD
satisfactory progress, although still de-
layed by moisture in portions of Kansas
and the Ohio Valley. Harvesting is prac.
tically completed in Missouri and Nebras-
ka, and is well advanced in the Ohio Val
lev and the northern portion of the Mid
die Atlantic States. Comparatively few
reports of sprou ing in sht OK and of dam
age by mold are received this week. Har-
yesting has continued under favorable
conditions on the Pacific Coast. Recent
rains have caused some lodging Of grain
in Washington.
"As a whole, both early and late spring
wheat have advanced satisfactorily, the
least favorable reports being received
from Northern Minnesota, where the crop
on Lowlands is thin and late. Some re-
ports of injury by rust are received from
Nebraska, and in portions of South Da-
kota the outlook is somewhat less favor
able than previously indicated. Recent
rains have greatly improved the condi-
ton of spring wheat on the North Pacific
Coast.

WITHIN THE TOWN.

There Is need for more business
houses on Main street or elsewhere.
A half dozen or more could be rented
at sharp advantage over the pre-
vailing average. 81.
There Is no doubt about the fact
that the time has come when York
vile needs more houses. Under exist
ing conditions capital is warranted In
putting up houses for residence pur-
poses as an investment. The outlook
is that the demand for desirable
homes is to become stronger rather
than weaker.
IF the Gentry Bros dog and pony
show is as good as 1t once was, 1t is
by far the best thing Of the kind that
ever came this way" says Mr.. A. M.
Grist Of THE ENQUIRER staff. II have

markable cleverness, and one Is i'm
pressed with the idea that II they have
not been endowed with human reason
ing, their instinct, or whatever 1t Is, Is
SO nearly like reason that 1t Is impossi-
BILE to distinguish the difference. The
whole show Is on an unusually large
scale, and the programme Is one OF
absorbing interest throughout. Those
who go with big expectations are not
likely be ppointed-certainly not
II the show Is as complete as 1t once

even more so."

WHEAT SOWING.

There will be more wheat sown in
this county than there was last year.
This Is the news from the vicinity OF
Glover, and 1t Is reasonable to assume
that the same conditions exist else
where.
Mr.. ]. L. Stacy is successful wheat
grower. He never fails to put In fair
acreage Of small grain, and although
he sometimes has bad luck, he takes
his medicine" and does not become
discouraged. The crop failed on him
wear before last and again last year;
but this years crop was a good one,
almost good enough to make up for
two partial failures.
There will be more wheat sown
this fall than usual" said Mr.. Stacy
to the reporter a day or two ago. Il
have had applications for. seed from
a number Of neighbors who sowed no
wheat at all last year, and I am salts
fed that will be able to dispose OF all
the seed I have at S1.50 bushel. In
fact I rather think It would be an
easy matter to dispose Of great deal
more than can furnish"
Mr.. Stacy sometimes harvests from,
IL to Is bushels of wheat to the acre;
but last year and year before last his
average was in the neighborhood OF
only three bushels. This years crop
was one Of the best he has harvested
for number Of years.

it would be an extremely difficult
matter for them to return to the Liao
Tung peninsula in the spring.
Reports from st. Petersburg sound
very hopeful. They hold out the I'M
preston that Kuropatkin is still In
good shape after eleven days Of bat
tie and that he will soon be In a po-
sition TO begin another advance. To-
kio reports represent the Russians as
having been severely crippled, but al
the same time admit heavy losses on
their own part.
The suspension Of the fighting was
due in the first place to the exhaustion
Of the supplies Of ammunition on both
sides and in the second place to ter
rible cold rains that set in making II
impossible for the exhausted men to
continue in the field.
There is story from st. Petersburg
to the effect that the czar has an
nounced his determination to send an
army of 100000 men into Manchuria
The army has already been mobilized
and equipped, and the one remaining
thing to do is to get it to the seat OF
war. This move will divest Russia Of
her regular standing army at home;
but 1t is claimed that there has been
an understanding with Germany, un-
der which understanding the Russian
frontiers will be afforded adequate
protection. Germany, 1t Is also rep
resented, will undertake to see that
no new troubles develop in Europe as
the result Of the withdrawal of Rus
sia's regular army.
Information from Port Arthur Is te
the effect that General Stoessel Is re-
duced to a single stronghold, one OF
the many forts by which Port Arthur
has been defended. The probability Ii
that he cannot hold out more than
week or two longer.
Russia's powerful Baltic feet start
ed for the far east few days ago. II
Is understood that half Of 1t will &c
by way Of the Suez canal and the
other half by way Of the Cape Of Good
Hope; but in no event can either d.
vision get into Japanese or Manchu-
rian waters under ninety days.

the third man, taking advantage OF
this, hacked at the Jap" cutting his
cheek. Yellow face yelled, and fired
again, killing our third man. Now 1t
was my time, and though I knew l
was done for, felt no fear, but only
thirst to cut down the Jap" who
laughed at every shot. However, I
wasn't going to give myself away, so
instead of rushing on l stuck my

his rifle muzzle, but it went through

no more. There were three blood
thirsty demons behind, and Master
Jap" wasn't safe yet. I heard after
wards how he rushed at one man who
hesitated to go on, pulled him over
the bodies, and struck him with
knife. The other two men were
knocked down by shots. When more
Of our men came UP, they fired the
house, after pulling me and the other
wounded out. The Jap" seeing he
was done for, put his head through a
window and laughed. Then he jump
