WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN.

For the Week Ending August s, 1904.
 The weather conditions during the past week have been very favorable to agricultural and stock interests. IL has been moderately warm, and show cry conditions prevailed most of the week. In a few localities no rain fell, the showers being of a local nature, but light to heavy rains fell at some time during the week over most of the territory. Irrigation water is now ample for all purposes, and the soil Is generally well saturated. Cloudiness and humid air have added to the fa- vorableness of the conditions by check ing evaporation. As a result of the favorable conditions crops, where not killed by the previous drouth, have made decided improvement. This im- provement is most marked in the north and east where crops generally had been less injured by drouth than in the central portion of the territory. There has been some damage to farms, fences and crops by flood, but this is small when compared to the beneficial effect There will be a large acreage of late corn and sorghum planted. and much planting has already been done. This W rain. Earlier corn has improved, and IS now doing well. Considerable grain has been harvested in northern dis tricts. Harvesting the second crop of alfalfa in the north has been retarded by rain, and it is feared that some damage will result. Gardens have inn proved greatly and are TOW generally doing well. Potatoes have improved, but in some localities the growth is in the tops rather than in the tubers. Tn the lever Colorado valley crops have continued to do well, as previously. Those crops planted on overflow ground have generally come up well and are now in promising condition. The con- dition of the ranges has greatly im- proved. and grass and weeds are grow Ing rapidly. Water is plentiful, all tanks and waterholes being full. Con ditions now appear promising for win ter feed All kinds of stock are im- proving rapidly.

He had seemingly fallen into so deep a sleep the heat of the adobe room did not disturb him and when found he had a temperature of 112, which was reduced to normal as quick ly as possible when stimulants were administered. From that time on it was a question of physical endurance. Yesterday morning he was removed tO the hospital and though he improved a times it was thought late last night that he had little chance to recover.

 Some one present ventured to ask the Pontiff what the yearly cost was, to which his Holiness replied laughingly, That I cannot tell you; but measure it by my love for the royal family and you will arrive at a very fair guess!" And with this enigmatical reply the subject was allowed to, drop.-Fall Mall Gazette.

FARQURAR DISCHARGED
Trial of hexicans Charged With
 Peace Disturbance.

Ralph Farquhar. steward at the county hospital, was tried yesterday by Justice Robertson, and discharged. There were four witnesses in his be- half and three against him, the testi- mony being so conflicting the court could not find him guilty.
 Farquhar was charged with having beaten, abused and kicked a man named Phillip Kelly. an inmate of the hospital, who applied at his office for medicine, etc, because he did not leave the place quick enough to suit the steward. Kelly is an old man and suffering of a cancer or some similar disease that makes his presence of fensive to some people. He claims that after he got wha- he wanted the steward very rudely and brutally threw him out and kicked him. His

Against this testimony was that of the de- fendant who said that Kelly not only loitered around the office after his wants were attended to but that he became insulting and used violent and profane language in the presence of MT Farquhar's family, whereupon he pushed him through the door as gently as he could and do it effectively MT. Farquhar's testimony was borne out by that of his wife and two others. em- ployes of the institution.

ALLOTMENT ORDER.
interior Department Orders Certain
Lands Withheld from Allotment.
CBy Associated Press.l

Ardmore, l. T.. Sept 1s.--what is
considered most important order
affecting the Chickasaw and Choctaw
nations has been received by the
Dawes commission. The interior de-
par ment has ordered the commission
to withhold from allotment the homes
aud improved lands OF those appll-
cants in the Chickasaw and Choc-
taw nations who were on the tribal
rolls and we're admitted as citizens
by the federal courts in 1896. but who
failed to make application to the
Chichasaw and Choctaw citizenship
courts for enrolment.
A large number OF these citizens
will be affected by the order It Is re-
membered thSt when the citizenship
court was created and made court
of last appeal in citizenship cases
they revoked and vacated the judg
ment OF the United States courts in

were entitled to enrormen on account
Of the tribal rolls on which they we're
registered. These Indians let the
ninety days in which they could file
applications slip by. and when tho
ci izenship codrt closed its iursdic-
tion to applicants in the spring Of
1898 these claimants we're left out. al.
though they we're on the tribal rolls.
Not being in any way recognized as
legal applicants the Dawes commits
sion could not prevent other allo'tees
from filing on their land in some in
stances. The new order viii prevent
Indians from allottins this land fin

SCARCITY OF TREES
PUzkLEs RAILROADS.
Growth 81 Eleetrie Railways Regarded
as Cause by Officials.
CBy Associated Press)

Cincinnati. o., Sept ia problem
thnt continues to puzzle the railroad
officials and the railroad cor ffac or
is the purchase Of railroad ties. Cool
ties are very hard to procure and their
cost has increased remarkably. One
cause given for the scarcity is The vast
amount OF electric railway construc-
tion work now being done.
A Cincinnati railroad official is
quoted as saying that 1. is almost i'm
possible to get good railroad ties and
that. II his company could get hold Of
100000 Of them, at once. at 20 cents
or So cents apiece. II would take the
whole lot. At that rate the .umber
Of ties that would be necessary for
the building of a mile OF railroad
would cost about $1,000.
This scarcity Of wooden ties has led
several railroads to adopt the eS-
pedieut OF grc~ing trees TO provide
them with ties for work in the futurc.
Some companies have discussed the
practIcability of planting quick grow
ing tough fibered trees along their
right of way. while others have OBJ
tained laigo tracts of land for the
planting
The subject of a supply Of ties will
be discussed at the In ernational Rail.
