'i in numbor of millionaires in
Kngland is not mo groat as one mi^lit
believo. According to the report of
the income-tax officials there are in

about 10,000 have an income of

a new form of delirium tremens
has attacked a New York toper.
While under the inllueneo of a livoly
jag he was shocked by an olectriu
wire. Now, whon ho has taken too
inuuh whisky, ho fancies he sees
sputtering olectrlo wires and writh-
ing snakes, which shower him with
sparks.
Seaweed has not even in our
wildest momonts ever boon dreamt
of as an instrument of electoral cor-
ruption. Yet the Tokto newspapers
just to hand contain the aceount of
the trial of a member of the Japaneso
parliament who was licensed of
bribery by corrupting his constitu-
ents with presonts of cdihlo seaweed.
Tin v have struck a good idea in
tho Broadway cable road in New
York. Instead of allowing nows-
boys to jump on tho cars, ut tho risk
of lilo or limb, tho company proposes
to station one boy in uniform on
every car and to supply him with all
the morning and evening news-
papers, tho wooklios and monthly
magazines.
Tiie business of jumping down
from high bridges und towers gener-
ally ends as it did with tho man who
tried it tho othor day in Philadel-
phia, and ho it is losing its uovolty.
Mr-sides this, anybody can jump
down. Now lot somebody jump up,
and ho will outlive in fame tho fool
who drowned himself going tho
othor way.

The trial of tho 6x*pvuSi|ont «i\nd

Homo has ended in thoir acquittnl.
Tho business mothods of that insti-
tution wore of the most shamoloss
character, but too many people in
high places were mixed up in the
transactions to permit of a full ex-
posure, and so the guilty have gone
unpunished. This is not tho lirst
time that reasons of stato have
shielded fraud and rascality.
(iuKAT forest llro* are reported in
different parts of tho Northwest and
particularly in tho pine regions of
Northern Wisconsin, where tho
damage has already amount-d to
millions of dollars Those forest
tiros have prevailed annually since
the country was settled, and they
will doubtless continue until tho
great lumbering regions with thoir
combustible materials are perman-
ently replaced by cultivated farms.
Fire is a powerful though costly
agent in effecting this change.
The country known as Coroa ro-
seinhlos many other oriental roglons
in tho fact that tho name which
foreigners use to Jesignato it is but
littlo known in tho country itself.
The name ••Coroa" was originally
••Curio," the title of a trivial slate
on the poninsula. but tho Japanose
and Chinese applied it, in various
forms to tho entire country. Tho
true ollieial title of •■! urea" was
udopted whon tho various peninsular
states wore consolidated in tho four-
teenth century. It is "Chaosien"
or "Tsioson." and means ••serenity
of the moi ning."
The sympathy of tho civilized
world is with Japan—that is, such
portions uf the civilized world as
may net bo anxious to make off with
tho bone of contention whilo tho two
countrios aro lighting. In such a
case sympathy for cither of the com-
batants will be crowded out by more
pressing emotions. Japan is littlo,
but she is alive. She is the most
progressive among tho Oriental na-
tious, whilo China is a lethargic
mass of ropellont barbarism. The
one represents capacity and willing-
ness to advanco; tho other dead bulk,
chained to the past, it is impossible
not to wish tho belter luck to tho
Japaneso, who are universally likod.
THE York baby will bo known as
Prince Kdward Albert, which will
shorten itself into Kdward, a popu-
lar naino in Fngland as associated
with royalty. It has boon said if tho

ho will reign as King Kdward VII.

Somebody has sued tho Goulds and

liiWCi'i.N. Neb., Aug. 10.—A fearful
wreck, involving the loss of twenty-
four live.,, occurred Mi tho Chicago,
lloek Island A Pacific railroad where
it crosses, on a high trestle.the tracks
of the lTuion Pacific a id tho Hurling-
ton Missouri Kiver railroads, at 10
o'clock last night. All indications
point to train wreckers as tho cause.
Train No. n is an accommodation
called "Fort Worth accommodation.'
and is due to arrive hero at 1 :40 p. in.
I.ast night it was t -n minutes late
und was making up time when it
struck tho trestle that crosses Salt
creek about four miles from this
city and two from the peni-
tentiary. When it struck the
trestle, the rails immediately spread
and the engine, drawing the two cars
after It, went thumping along over
the cross ties for about lifty feet and
then, with a crash, it fell forty feet
to the bed of the creek below. The
engine burst and glowing coals,
spreading, ignited the wooden sup-
ports and the coaches behind it, and
in a few moments the bridge, dry as
tinder from its long exposure to the
sun, was one mass of Haines. The
coals falling upon the coaches lying in
the ditches set them afire, and live
minutes after the first warning, the
entire mass of cars with their load of
human freight was ono mass of

(It iiilUK, Ok., Aug. i... —In the con-
tested lot case of Tliorne vs. New-
comb, from this city, the commissioner
of the r.-neral laud ortice has rendered
a decision of great importance to all
settlors on government townsites
everywhere. It is to tho effect that a
settler must actually live upon lots or
I conduct active business thereon in
order to acquire title thereto and can
not live elsewhere and hold govern-
ment lots through an agent or by pur-
chase of another settler's right. This
decision will affect hundreds of cases
in Oklahoma and give many thousands
of dollars of valuable property to ac-
tual settlers instead of speculators.

CONDITION
CORN.
Speaker Crisp, Chairman Wilson and
others, it was decided to take the sen-
ate bill, and immediately afterwards
pass separate bills placing coal, iron
ore, sugar and barbed wire on the
free list and by so doing place the
house on record and at least partially
overcome the humiliation involved in
its defeat. The program arranged in
the caucus was carried out to the let-
ter in the house after au ironclad
special order.
The scenes in the chamber through-
out the evening were exciting and at
times sensational. Tho galleries
were packed and the members ap-
plauded and cheered their respective
leaders to the echo. J nder the terms
of the order but two hours were al-
lowed for debate on the main propo-
sition to recede and agree to the sen-
ate amendments to the tariff bill. A
parliamentary skirmish preceded the
pitched battle, but points of order
raised by the Republicans were swept
aside. The speaker ruled tho house
with un iron hand.
The principal speeches for and
against the main proposition wore
made by Chairman Wilson and
Speaker Crisp on the one hand and
Kx-Speakcr Heed and Mr. Hurrows on
the other.
There was no time for preparation
and all of the speeches were hot from
the forge of the brain and were
greeted with round after round of
cheers and applause. Kourke Cock-
ran of New York und Mr. Tarsney of
Missouri, both Democratic members
uf the ways and means committee,
delivered scathing and sensational
speeches denouncing the surrender
of the house as cowardly and inde-
fensible

Decline Heaviest Kver Known Within a
Period of Thirty Days.
Chicago, Aug. 15.—Tho August crop
report of the I'rairie Farmer says that
while conditions July 1 indicated the
largest corn crop ever grown,
a most liberal estimate on
August 1 would indicute a
yield decidedly under the average of
recent years. During July there was
a decline in condition of 20..'I points,
the average on August i being 7f>.0.
This is the heaviest decline in one
month ever known in the history of
crop reporting and is entirely the re-
sult of severe drouth which prevailed
over almost the entire corn belt.
These conditions continued for the
first ten days of August so that no
definite estimate of the probable
crop can be made. The condition
reported August 1 would indicate a
crop slightly under 1,200.000,000, but
it is not possible to say what further
loss has been sustained since that
date. The condition in leading states
is: Ohio, si; Indiana, sh: Illinois, *1:
Iowa, '.s; Missouri, sr.; Kansas. IV: Ne-
hrasku, in. Indiana aud Missouri
alone at that date promised au aver-
age crop.
