THE WEEKLY WISCONSIN. When writing to adTertteen, please men tlon Che WEEKLY WISCONSIN. tor The IN ANY LAND. BV CAItLOTTA PERRV. I iii a Northern land, and you Where the Southern crossbeams overhead; But we've drunk of the self-same cup, we two, We've eaten both of the self-same bread: Purple wine find the friendly pledge, Bitter fruit and the teeth on edge.

I where the white snows drift, and you Where fadeless beauty and bloom are spread; But my soul has bathed in the gracious dew That into your thirsty soul is shed: I in the North and you in the South, We have shared the flood we have shared the drouth. I where the summer flies, and you Where never the summer time is dead; But we wandered both the darkness through, On the same sharp thorns our feet have bled: Prom the same still heights we've watched afar, The same white sail, the same white star. What does it matter or here or there, The summer green or the winter gray; TJie rose and the rue bloom everywhere; And life is one and the same alway: Prom the East and the West comes Sorrow forth. And Joy knows never a South nor North. CROP REPORTS.

Figures Compiled the Millers and by the National Authorities. S. H. Seamans, of Milwaukee, secretary of the Millers' National Association, has completed and issued to the members of the association an exhaustive report of the present condition and outlook of the wheat crop as compared with the same time in 1884, compiled from replies to 3,000 circular inquiries sent to the milling fraternity and others. The report makes the probable aggregate yield of wheat in the United States this year 339,164,800 bushels, or 20,835,200 less than the estimate promulgated by the statistician of the United States Bureau of Agriculture.

If the Millers' Association report of the coming crop is correct, it will fall 173,599,100 bushels short of the crop last year. Following is the national crop report refeferred to above: The .1 line crop report of the Agricultural Di'pnrtment estimates the total wheat crop of tin; country at bushels, of which 207,000,000 is winter and 353,000,000 i.s Hpring. The condition of winter wheat is lower than ever before in June, the general percentage having declined from 70 in May to G2. The averages of the principal BtatoH are: New York 91; Pennsylvania, 07; Ohio, 50; Michigan, 04; Indiana, 63; Illinois, 40; Missouri, 52; Kansas, 5G; California, 58. In Home states there has been a greater loss of area than was anticipated in previous reports.

The average yield will evidently be less than 10 bushel per acre. probable product of winter wheat slates, according to these returns, is re duced to about 207,000,000 bushels. But none of the territories are included in the winter wheat area. The report of spring wheat is more favorable. The disposition last autumn to reduce its breadth on account of the low price wan checked by the loas of winter wlieat area, and Inter by the British-Russian war rumors.

Substantially the same area has been needed as last year, about 11,000,000 in Northern Ts'ew England, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, and all the territories. The percentage of last year's area is 1)5 in Wisconsin, in Minnesota, 102 in Jowa, Nebraska, and 103 in Dakota. The condition of spring wheat is 97, and indicates a crop of about 153,000,000 bushels. The average for Wisconsin is 88; Minnesota, 94; Iowa, 100; Nebraska, 102; Dakota, 101. The present report therefore indicates a wheat crop of 360,000,000 bushels, 237,000,000 bushels smaller than that of 1881.

The June report of the Department of Agriculture will make an increase in the cotton area of 5 to per Virginia, 107 per North Carolina, 102; South Carolina, 103; Georgia, 104; Florida, 102; Alabama, 103; Mississippi, 106; Louisiana, 107; Texas, 110; Arkansas, 109; Tennessee, 101. The total area exceeds acres. The plant is healthy, growth nearly average, and the stand good. Where recent rains have been excessive the crop is in the grass. The general average is 92, which is higher than in the three preceding years in June.

There is an unusual uniformity in condition, only Tennessee showing less than 90. The state averages are: Virginia, IKS; North Carolina, 03; South Carolina, 96; Georgia, 95; Florida, 93; Alabama, 92; Mississippi, 92; Louisiana, 95; Texas, 90; Arkansas, 91; Tennessee 85. The general condition of rye is 82. The area of barley is nearly the same as in .1884, and the average of condition is 89. The acreage of oats has increased 4 per cent, and the average of condition is 94.

Corn ill be reported in July, but volun tary returns indicate an increase of area. Whirling Devastators. BURLINGTON, June dispatch from Massene, Cass County, gays that a tornado struck the village of'Bridgewater, eight miles from Mass- ene, on Monday. The wrecks indicate that two storms met, as there are two distinct tracks of tornados in the town. The first house struck, a two- story frame, was blown down, and Mr.

'and Mrs. Lilly were severely injured. The latter has since died. Mr. Hartraan's- house was the next one struck, and not a timber was left standing.

Mr. Condon, who was in the house received fatal injuries. The members of the family were all more or less hurt. Dr. Reagan's drug store was moved from its foundations, and the stock ruined.

The building next the drug store was the only one in the village that escaped injury. Patterson's broom factory was blown away, some of the heavy machinery being carried several hundred feet. The dwelling house and all the outbuildings of James Sweaton are gone, barely a trace of them being left. James Ford's house was unroofed, and one end of Richard Bell's dwelling is a complete wreck. E.

Strong's stable was blown away, but his horse was found uninjured, tied to the manger half a mile away. The fine residence of James Hendry was blown down and a bed containing two children was lifted into a yard, not a cover on the bed being disturbed. A score of other buildings were more or less damaged. The loos will reach $60,000. Fire Record.

SHEBOYGAN, June Park Hotel was totally destroyed by fire this morning. Loss insurance on building from $5,000 to on furniture, some of which was gotten out, $2,000. No Milwaukee companies are interested. Other small losses by moving goods from adjoining buildings are covered by insurance. The fire was caused by the ac cidental overturning of a lamp by Otto Puhlmann, of Plymouth, whooc cupiedaroom hi the third story the hotel.

Puhlmann, after doing all his power to subdue the flames, umped out of the window, and, strange to say, escaped without serious injury. All the guests and servant girls managed to escape from the jurning building, many of them in their night-clothes. The furniture of the "ower floor was saved in a damaged jondition. HIGH POINT, N. June Kandleman Cotton Factory, in Randolph County, was partially destroyed jy lire last night.

The weaving, dye- "ng and spinning departments and engine and boiler rooms were destroyed. The loss is partially insured. Seven hundred hands are ihrown out of employment. MANISTEE, June destroyed Kitzinger's shingle mill at a "ate hour last night with all the contents. Loss insurance $11,000.

The mill was not in use. MADISON, June County Mills and a mammoth hay shed adjoining were destroyed by fire yesterday afternoon. Loss A Pecfc of Trouble. MARSHPIELD, June triangular dispute at Hewitt, Wood County, lour miles east, has attracted much attention. Korth Maas, saloonists, and Korth Marker, general mer- located there, have become involved in a series of disputes, the result of which cannot be anticipated.

Both saloon and store have been losed by mutual consent of the three parties concerned, until a settlement be concluded. Apropos of this, it is stated that Charles Wickert, who was recently acquitted by Judge Webb's court of a charge of embezzlement, brought by his former employers, Korth Marker, has retained prominent Chilton lawyer, and will bring suit for damages, etc. Wickert, it will be remembered, was arrested last month at the residence of his betrothed, in Milwaukee, and on the eve of his contemplated nuptials.
