Let Himself BE Killed.

Last night about II o'clock Great
Northern ore train ran over and kill
ed Thomas Corkill, n miner employed
at the Meadow Lark property, which
recently started operations. Corkill
and his partner, Thomas Kerneen, had
been to town and been drinking. They
started back over the Great Northern
spur to the CRANKY mines, reaching
a point but 40 feet from the end of
the tail of the switchback and heard
the ore train coming in the distance.
Corkill said he would sit down on the
track for a time, and Kerneen tried
to get him to go on, finally going on
himself a few hundred feet beyond
the rails. The latter heard the train
coming and shAuted to Corkill, rum
ming back jus: in time to see him
rolled under the pilot of the locomo-
tive, the unfortunate man dying n few
minutes afterward.--PhoeniX Pioneer.

ANNIVERSARY OF THE
NEW RICHMOND STORM

Monday, June 12, 1892, seven years
Richmond, Wis, was destroyed by a
tornado. Mention of the disaster is
all that is needed to recall to the minds
of many people the terrible circum-
stances. Even in this city, which did
not suffer from the storm, the black
clouds were 80 ominous and the down
pour of rain so heavy that people who
had had experience with tornadoes
knew that somewhere near by, there
had been trouble. At pm, the sky
became so black that lights had to be
turned on in all the stores and Office
buildings, and soon afterward there was
a torrential downpour Of rain, water
literally piled up in the street because
the sewers were not able to carry 1t
away as it fell. 81 ss.
Nothing in Minnesota and Wisconsin
before or since the destruction of New
Richmond, has approached that disas-
ter in havoc wrought to property or the
number Of lives lost. Hardly a store
or business building was left standing,
and an unknown number Of dead was
left in the ruins, the bodies in many
cases cremated in the fire which at once
broke out in the ruins. a..
The total number Of dead was not
known for weeks, but it amounted &c
more than a hundred, almost one in
every ten of the town IS population.
That the grit Of the town was not de.
stroyed along with the buildings Is seen
today in the fact that New Richmond Il
a bigger and better town than before

WHEAT RANKS %,
SAYS. GOVERNMENT
RATING THIS TIME LAST YEAR
WAS 93.7.
Grain Men Look Upon Official Crop
Report as Indicating that Yield Will
Equal or Surpass Last Year Red
River Valley Dealers Doubt the
Figures.

The government report giving the
condition of the wheat crop July /,
which appeared late yesterday, brought
relief to the grain and elevator firms
OF Minneapolis and encouraged the be-
lief at the Chamber Of Commerce that
despite the recent unfavorable weather,
the northwest is in for a big crop. A
the spring wheat was 93.7 per cent.
This year it is 90, practically the same.
The acreage is increased somewhat The
June prospect, therefore, is for crop
fully up to last year, and possibly
larger.
Line elevator managers and private
wire houses whose interests lie in the
Red river valley, were inclined to ques-
tion the larger acreage and to pro-
Based upon wheat conditions in the
valley alone, it is, indeed, certain that
no such high figures would be war
ranted.
Indorse the Report.
Other elevator men whose houses are
in the western part Of the grain terri
tory. especially along the 500 line in
North Dakota, and in Ward county
and other big counties, say the govern
ment report is all right, that men in
the trade who operate in older-settled
country, do not realize in full the high
condition of the crop in the west and
the large tracts of new lands broken
this year and put into wheat and other
grains. This western development, they
say, brings up the average materially.
June is month of uncertainty at
the best, in Minnesota and North and
South Dakota. A June condition does
not insure results. It suggests, prom
ises, or indicates, but it carries no Ger
tainty. Nevertheless. it means that the
crop has started ahead under certain
| favorable or unfavorable conditions
with chances for the harvest leaning
either way, accordingly.
It is interesting to note that while
the season SO far, until the present gooi
weather appeared, has been backward
it has not been 50 bad as last year, whe1
it rained late in June at time whe1
growing weather was needed. A year
ago, on July 4, after continued rain fol
weeks, the northwest was again soaked
and many thought the wheat ruined
yet there was a satisfactory harvest af
ter all.
This year then, with a good condition
on full acreage, and favorable the
promised, chances more than favor
