of Capt. Scales.

Erroneous reports published yes

n. S. Doyle, OF the State Department,
and $50 marines on board hal been
lost in Dominican waters brought a
food of inquiries to officials of the
State, War and Navy Departments,

AS fact, messages have been re-
ceived fro n Mr.. Doyle and the Prairie
almost daily since their arrival al
Santo Domingo city on October 2.
No details, however, regarding nego-
tiations they are conducting with the
Dominican Government have been dis
closed at the State Department.
Commander Scales, in a message
received yesterday, said that no ma
rines had yet been landed at Santo
Domingo city and that it was uncer-
tain as to when they would be landed.
His chief anxiety seemed to be over
the high prices Of food in the Domin-
ican capital and he asked that sup

Dominican republic, together with a
revolution in the vicinity of the dis

side which has resulted in the closing
Of the border customs houses, has
ended in a snarl which must s.be un-
raveled, according to officials in
Washington. if either republic is to
enjoy peace and prosperity.
II is intimated that the negotia-
tions are proceeding satisfactorily
and that in a few days definite
announcement of what has been
lone will be made.

most of the comedy of the piece. The
latter, especially, as the German money
lender, plays excellent comedy, in a hu-
morOus manner which has no suggestion

gTatulatory features Of THE Rose Maid
is the lack of any suggestion of coarse
or unseemly act or deed. The play wins

10y W. &. killingsr, Oklahoma City,
oklahoma.)

So far as the variety OF broomcorn
from the manufacturers stand point
there is not much preference, as the
manufacturers, as a rule. are seeking
medium length brush Of good color
To those who contemplate planting
broomcorn this year, would advise
that they secure the best seed obtain
able, buying 1t from some reliable
seed grover or handler OF seed, for
in this way seed can be secured that
has been treated for smut, as this Is
one OF the most Objectionable features
to be found In broomcorn. 1t makes
the brooomcorn very dusty and unsat
is factory to handle. and reduces the
weight OF the fibre
Seeding should be done the same
day the corn is pulled. and cured in
the shed, and II brush Is taken care
of in this manner you will find more
buyers seeking your place every fall,
and as result better prices will be
secured. Some growers claim that
those who handle their broomcorn
carelessly get as much for 1t as those
who take more care, but such is not
the cast. There might be one season
In five or six that the one who is care
less will get al much as the other
fellow, but have never seen it fail,
that the man who takes the proper
care did not receive good price for
his broomcOrn.
My advice is. secure the best seed
possible, cut and leave no boots or
blades on the stock, having the cut.
ter leave about four inches of stock
below the fibre OF the corn. Seed
well, and cure in sheds II possible,
