CORN CROP.
Estimates of Railroads Make 1t OIL.
100000 Bushels-Safe From Frost.

Omaha, Neb.-The Union Pacific
and the Burlington Railroad made pub
lie their estimates OH the Nebraska
corn crop for this year, and both roads
have arrived at practically the same
figures, the Burlington making the
number 211 100000, and the Union Pa
ciic 211,330,303 bushels.
The BurlingtOn's report was compiled
by the Agricultural Department of the
University of Nebraska. Both agree
that the quality of the grain is much
superior to that of last year, and that
the grain will grade very high. The
figures given by the railroads are many
millions less than those of ordinarily
well informed grain dealers, who vari-
ously estimate the Nebraska corn crop
at from 210,000,0O0 to 275, 900, 900 BUSH
els.
Reports from all parts of the State
show no damage was done to the corn
by recent cold, the clouds preventing
damaging frosts. Ninety per cent. of
the crop is already past the danger
point.

1t is a d~eep-draught boat that leaves
a turbulent wake, but auto boats are
all above the water, being made, as it
were, to skim over the smooth surface
from wave to wave, like a shell,
leaving hardly a ripple behind. And
for this reason they are capable of high
speed in even rougher water than that
of the Harlem. Not long since the
Standard left Sandy Hook in company
with the Monmouth, admittedly the
fastest steamer in New York Harbor.
and in spite of the chop in the bay and
the quartering seas from the %propellers
OF outgoing steamers, the automobile
boat reached the Battery, q distance of
approximately twenty miles, fifteen
minutes ahead of the Monmouth

hunted long for them. She searched in

crowded men from the great gaunt
