Big commandery.-A special train
of fifteen cars carried Pittsburg COM
mandery westward through the city
today, en- route to San Francisco.
There are over 1900 members of the
commandery and nearly 300 persons,
knights and their ladies, are making
the trip. They have been pleasantly
entertained all along the road, and are
having delightful trip.
Quiet PoIiticaIIy.-Col. Little, who
returned today from a trip through
the eastern states, reports an unusual
ly quiet campaign. With election only
little more than two months away,
there is little indication of the coming
battle. In New York state local con-
ditions have tended to create more in
terest, but in many of the states there
is nothing to indicate that campaign
is in progress.
Good Returns-Returns from the
thresher in the eastern part of the
county show some good yields. At
Menoken and vicinity fields have been
threshed out from thirteen to twenty
bushels an acre. These fields are usu
ally as low as any in the county,
North of the city better yields are ex
pected. Through Emmons county the
wheat fields promise we'll, and an .av
erage yield of IS to 20 bushels an acre
is expected. With the present prices
for wheat these yields will give good
returns to the farmers. The country
along the Missouri will have perhaps
the best average crop in the state

the members of which have been re
hearsing for some time, under thu
direction of Prof J. Newton Moore
will give concert at st. Pauls M. E

There will be humorous and patriotic
quartettes as we'll: The Junior ope1

home talent concert of the season.
