CONDITION OF CROPS.
Farmer Grimes Has Been Viewing His
Fields of the Southwest,

Guthrie o. T., April 14.-Farmer Bill
Grimes returned today. after several days
visiting in the southwestern part of the
territory, and resumed his duties in the
office of Secretary William Grimes.
Mr. -rimes says some of the counties
in tue southwestern part of the territory
have had more rain than Logan county
and ne found crops in much better condi-
ton than he expected.
He tells great stories about the rush of
business in Anadarko and does. not fail
to state that he considers Caddo county
one of the best in the territory. He says
Anadarko is just entering on great
building boom. They are going TO build a
new court house, put in a new water
system and a sewer system and new
gas and electric light plant. This will
make a rush of business, and, besides,
the city is growing and nobody can tell
when Anadarko's boom will stop.
Mr. Grimes is a practical farmer and
knows what he is talking about when he
speaks of the crops. For this reason it
is encouraging to hear him say that in
the sections visited by him the crops
are in fairly good condition.

PROF. BELLS KITE.
Will Not Give a Public Exhibition al
Present

Washington. April 14.--Prof. Alexander
Graham Bell has decided to give a public
exhibition of his tetrahedron kite, until
now seen only by the men who helped
him to test it at Cape Breton Island over
q year ago. The kite has attracted the
acute attention of the scientific world
from the moment il became known that
Professor Bell had been bitten by the
flying machine idea The exhibition is
to be given before the National Geo
graphical society at the open-air meeting
on Saturday, April 80. 1t has not yet
been announced where the kite will be
flown.
The device was explained in a recent
number of Popalar Science Monthly by
Mr. Gilbert II. Grosvenor. who shared in
the work at Cape Breton. Professor
Bell has spent many months and much
money in his experiments with his kite.
At his summer home for two or three
seasons he has worked in building and
launching kites. Some experiments, too.
have been made near Washington but
always privately. Ii is inferred that the
announcement of this exhibition means
that he has made some important recent
progress with his invention.
