The Crops of 1905.
~NNN~-~N~~~~

In the aggregate cereal yield 1900 VIII
break all records. This is indicated by
figures of condition and acreage just made
public by the Department of Agriculture.
The corn crop will amount to 2,693,Ooo,-
600 bushels, if present prospects hold out
a few weeks longer. This will lack only
100000 bushels of reaching the biggest
figures of the past, the yield for 1905.
But there is hoie that even the l9Oo
crop will be left behind. In no year ex-
cept 1905 were the corn prospects SO
bright as they are at this moment.
The wheat crop has passed all former
records. 1t amounts to 759,OO0,O00 BUSH
els. The winter wheat crop is 432, &C.,
900 bushels and the spring variety 10
267 100000. The largest previous aggre-
gate wheat yield was in 1901, when it
was 74S;000,000 bushels, or 100000
below the 1906 total AS the preliminary
figures of the Department of Agriculture,
like those just given out, are usually be-
low the aggregate which is found in the
final roundup, there is an excellent
chance that the indicated 759,0c0,O00
bushels for 1905 will turn out to be
greater than this when the returns are
all in.
Oats, rye, barley, buckwheat and po,a-
toes arc also up to high figures in the es-
innate made by the Department of AgTi-
culture. Hay shows slight falling off
i'll acreage, and probably in yield. But
the grand aggregate of the country's great
crops will be larger than in any former
year. This will be needed because the
country is growing with great rapidity.
Not far from 100000 are being added
to our poprlation each year nowadays,
with the immigration considerably above
the 100000 mark. Prices remain high,
which means that the producers will get
big returns for their crops. The farmer
is the favored man these days. The coun-
try is accommodating wealth at a rate be-
yond anything ever seen in the past

WORK OF THE TERRoRIsTs.
Riot and Assassination Continue
in Unhappy Russia.

General Vouliarski, acting military
governors general Of Warsaw, was shot
and killed at o'clock Monday after
noon while driving in cab. The assas-
sin escaped. General Vonliarski was
the commander of the Fifth Army
Corps, stationed at Warsaw.
General Min, commander of the Sem
inovsky Guard Regiment and per-
sonal adjutant in the suite of the Car,
was assassinated Sunday night at Pc
terhof by q young woman, who fired
five shots into his body and then sub
mitted to arrest. The capture of the
girl was effected by General Minis
wife, who held her until the arrival of
an officer. ANY of the five wounds IN
flicted by the girls bullets would have
resulted fatally.
This act of terrorism, following
closely Saturdays unsuccessful attempt
on the life of Premier Stolypin, with
its sickening slaughter Of thirty-two
persons, together with other develop
ments of the day in the reign of vlo-
lence, has caused the utmost alarm in
official circles.
One of these developments was an at.
tempt on the life of General Kaulbars,
governor of Odessa. A girl dropped a
bomb in the Nicholas boulevard fifty
PAGES from the palace Of the governor.
There was a deafening detonation and
a wild stampede of the promenaders.
No one was injured except the girl,
whose shand was shattered. 1t Is sup
posed that the bomb accidentally fell
from her hand as she was making her
way to the door of the palace. She and
another girl and university student
who was accompanying them were ar
rested.
The inc:eased activity of the "reds''
dictatorship. According to a report cur
rent a meeting Of the camarilla dis
cussed the question at Peterhof and a
majority was in favor of such a step.
Two other attempts had been made
recently on the life OF General Min,
who was condemned to death by the
terrorists Immediately after the Mos
cow revolt last December on account
of the stern repression practiced by a
battalion under his command and espe-
cially for the wholesale execution of
persons condemned by drumhead court
martial for being caught with arms In
their hands.

The attitude of President Roosevelt to-
ward State factional fights in the Repub-

the week by his approval of the course of
federal officers at New York in not taking
sides in the contest for the chairmanship
CT the New York Republican committee
Justice Brewer of the United States
Supreme Court, in st. Louis interview,
said that the next presidential election
wvuld be fought with Taft representing
the Republicans and Bryan the Demo
Gratis. He paid high compliments to the
virtues of both men. He thought that
Bryan and Roosevelt had many qualities
in common, both being earnest and fear
less, and having the interests of the coun-
try at heart. Taft, he said, was not so
impulsive or decisive as the President,
and would have hss friction.

HfppOcratic Era in Medicine.


Richard Cole Newton declares that
even in the early days Of the Hippo
cratic era the art of surgery eschewed
all forms OF superstition and philosoph-
deal conjecture, attaining practical re-
suits by direct methods, says the Med
Seal Record. At a very early age the
profession Of medicine was fully recog-
nized in Greece and in many cases was
generously rewarded. We read Of
swindlers and charlatans in those days,
too. Patent medicines were also sold.
The Hippocratic oath which for over
twenty centuries has remained practi-
-cally unchanged Is an evidence of the
sagacity, the sense Of professional hon.
or and responsibility and the clear
thinking OF the Greeks.
Hippocrates was born on the island
of Cos in AGO =. G. A large collection
of writings, evidently the work Of many
physicians, whose identity is unknown,
has been ascribed to the pen of this
leader. The Greeks were wonderfully
brilliant in medical attachments, for
they studied nature and her methods
and shook themselves free from monu.
mental load of ignorance and supersti-
tion. The synchronous development Of
mind and body was the fundamental
rule, both of health and education. The
writer reviews a number of interesting
works that were written by eminent
physicians of that day.

GOOD AND HARD

Results of Excessive Coffee Drinks.
1t is remarkable what suffering some
persons put up with just to satisfy an
appetite for something.
A Michigan woman says: 81 had

enough to have a cup Of my own at the
table, and from 1t have suffered agony
hundreds of times In the years past.

OF bilious collie, coming on every few
weeks and almost ending my life. At

this way. l used to pray for death to
relieve me from my suffering. l had
also attacks Of sick headache, and he
gan to suffer from catarrh of the stom-

GAINED "a POUNDS
Persistent Ansemia Cured by On
Williams Pink Pills After Other
Rcmedjes Had Failed.

"When began taking DR.. Williams
Pink Pills" says Mrs. Nathaniel Field,
of st. Albans, Somerset county, Maine,
''I was the palest, most bioodless person
you could imagine. My tongue and
gurss were colorless and my fingers aud
eass were like wax. I lad two doctors
and they pronounced my trouble al amia.
Ihad spells of vomiting. ooGA not eat,
I'm fact, did not dare to, had such dis
tress after eating. My stomach was filed
with gas which caused me awful agony
The balckache suffered was at times
almost unbearable and the least exertion
made my heart beat SO fast that could
hardly breathe. But the worst of all was
the splitting neuralgia headache which
never left me for seven weeks. About this
time had had several numb spells. My
limbs would be cold and without any
feeling and the most deathly sensations
would come over me.
"Nothing had helped me until began
taking DIR. Williams Pink Pills, in fact,
! had grown worse every day. After I
had taken the pills short time I could
see that they were benefiting me and
~one morning / awoke entirely free from
pain. The distress after eating disap-
peared and in three weeks / could eat

venience. also slept soundly. have
taken several boxes of the pills and have
gained in weight from l20 to 154 pounds
and am perfectly well now"
DIR. Williams Pink Pills cure anemia
because they actually make new blood.
For rheumatism, indigestion, nervous
headaches and many forms of weakness
they are recommended even if ordinary
medicines have failed. They are sold by
all druggists, or will be sent postpaid, on
receipt of price, so cents per box, six
boxes for $3.50, by the DR.. Williams
Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y.

A Water Kite for Sounding.

A Berlin scientific paper tells of new
device arranged by Swedish scientist
to reduce the danger of shallow water in
navigation. 1t consists Of simple water
kite, which is fastened to wire cable
and east over the side a the ship. By
reason of the Oblique pressure, the kite
sinks rapidly as far as its cable permits.
On the side of the winch scale and reg
lister tells the depths to which the kite
has descended As soon as the kite comes
in contact with any solid obstruction or
shallow bottom, coupling is released,
which instantly slackens the tension Of
the cable by changing the position of the
kite: this sets in motion an alorm bell on
deck, which attrs cts the attention of the
watch

DEATH RATE OF CITIES.

Excellent ShOwings.

Chicsgo's claims as the most healthful
Of all the great cities of the country once
more are confirmed through the official
census reports. The complete report on
mortality for the years 1900 to 1904 In
elusive was issued the other day.
Chicage's annual death rate average per
thousand of population for the five-year
period is much less tlan that OF any other
city coming within the first class, while
among cities of the second class only st.
Paul, Minneapolis and Milwaukee present
lower average. Following are the av-
erages for the FIVE years for the principal
cities:

Value of Rain WINTER.

The purcst water met with under or
,dinary circumstances Is rain water,
which is certainly a great luxury to
those in towns or cities for washing.
If it were fully appreciated how valua'
7ble rain water really Is. the dwellers
in large towns would see that it was
not always lost.
