The I?usslan harvest Is large, but It
will not, for all that, serve to supply the
extra demand for grain and flour caused
by the war. The United Btates will
have to supply the deficiency. Happily
we will be able to do It from the over
flowing granarles of the country.

vors the opening of Uie show on Bun

Crops Never Better In Iowa.
Cheerful paragraph in the Dubuque
Herald of the 5th : A gentleman who
has taken a trip along the IlHnolB
Central to Fort Dodge, and up the Cedar
Valley road, reports to us from his own
observations and talks with people of
all classes in the region through which
he passed, that the crop prospects of
this portion of Iowa were never better;
that all small grain will yield a big crop
and of an excellent quality. Corn looks
better than it has for a number of years,
and all the people are confident that
better times will come to this section at
least, and they all seem more cheeerful
and contented than they have been be
fore in a long time. Not a chinch bug,
'hopper, nor a sign of blight was dis
. covered, and harvesting is progressing
rapidly and successfully.
Ammunition for the Turks.
' Boston, August 14. The English
steamer John Bramall sailed from New
Haven some time Saturday night with a
valuable cargo of ammunition, con
signed to the Turkish war department.
The Bridgeport metallio cartridge works
shipped fifty-two car loads of cartridges,
and the Whitney arms company of New
Haven supplied the balance of her car
go. Vain Attempt to Rob a Bank.
, There was an unsuccessful attempt to
rob the Warren, R. I., bank the other
day. A woman drove up to the door
and called the cashier out to talk busi
ness while two men entered the bauk,
one of them engaging a citizen in con
versation while the other took up a tin
box, supposed to contain the bank's
money and all three rode off. Nothing
was missed from the bank, but the box
has since been found lying in the road
some miles from town, and proves to be
the box of a depositor, but containing
nothing but papers.
Titusville'8 New Oil Fever.
There was a greater rush on Monday
to the now famous gravel-bed wells at
East Titusville than has ever occurred
before since the commencement of the
development. Six stares were kept
constantly running during the entire
day. A new well on lot No. 80, Oile
farm, which was finished on Saturday,
commenced pumping at a rate which
astonished the hundreds of people con
gregated round the romantic spot. It
pumped a stream of almost solid oil,
about as thick as a man's wrist, for
hours, which brought the euthusiam of
lease seekers up to fever heat. Mr.
Archie Johnson, who is one of the lead
ing spirits in this novel enterprise, in
forms us that leases on the Gile farm
will be rented to-day for a bonus and
half the oil. The Johnson House did a
business yesterday equal to that of the
days of anoient Tlthole. Thegreat rush
seems to be An the ylclulty of the pro
ducing wells, but leases are anxiously
sought after and gobbled up from the
city limits to the Venango county line,
beyond Plrve creek. This extraordinary
and unprecedented development has
puzzled the most astute operators, geolo
gists, and scientists. That it Is a natu
ral deposit sealed up between two layers
of blue clay in the outcropplngs of the
first sand is generally conceded. It may
extend for miles, and again it may be
limited to the base of the hill, where it
has already been found. Like the Bul
lion Bun territory, its extent can only
be determined by thoroughly testing the
entire surrounding district. There is
plenty of money here for the small cap
italist. One of the wells, which cost
only $13 to sink, inside of a day and a
half, has pumped twenty barrels a day
since last Saturday. Titusville Herald.
Two Youths Buffet the Niagara Foam.
The feat of swimming across the Ni
agara river below the falls has in it so
many elements of danger that peculiar
credit has always been accorded the ac
complishment. Within a comparatively
short time, however, numerous persons
have successfully crossed the turbulent
stream, and even some small boys have
demonstrated their ability to accomplish
(he perilous trip.
Oi Monday of this week, as we see by
the Niagara Falls Gazette, two boys
Willie Flynn and an adopted son of Mr.
Bully swam from a point below the gas
works across the river and back with
apparent ease. At one time the boys
were enveloped in the thick foam on the
surface and were completely lost to sight
for a few moments. The successful ac
complishment of the fent was loudly ap
plauded by their numerous comrades
who witnessed the allairfrom the Amer
ican shore.
What a Woman Gained by the Strike.
An engineer on the Jeflerson road got
a dress for his wife last week by the use
of a little strategy over the strike. He
was approached by a merchant of
Louisville, who had been caught away
from home and was anxious to return.
The engineer was on his engine, and
waiting permission from the strikers to
pull out, when the merchaut asked per
mission to get on with him, so as to
make the attempt to run the blockade,
and proposed to the engineer that if he
would help him and succeeded in get
ting him out of the city he might bring
his wife to his Btore and get a handsome
suit of clothes lor her. The engineer
told him all right, exchanged his cap
for the " plug!' of the merchant, and
took him away safe and sound. The
engineer's wife will wear one of the
nicest suits to be seen on the streets.
Enough of Dory Voyaging.
Mrs. Crapo, who with her husband
has just crossed the ocean in a boat,
writes home to New Bedford confirming
the story of their hardships. She slept
on a wet bed all through the voyage.
They had seven gales, the last being
very hard; "but," she says, "God was
with us, and He calmed the sea so that
we were able to make sail." Mrs. Crapo
complains of pains all through her body
and she fainted twice on the voyage.
The husband, too, was badly used up,
and both have enough dory voyaging.
" We would not undertake this voyage
again for considerable."
