Once the ship captain who found his vessel in volved in such a hurricane had to trust to his spars, his helm, and the stoutness of his planks for escape. It the ship survived the fury of one semicircle of the storm, It fell suddenly in the awful calm at the center, whose ominous quiet every sailor knew was but the forerunner of a still more dreadful tempest pressing at its heels.

And in little while the shriek of the coming winds was heard again, the center passed and the other semi-circle of the storm descended upon the doomed ship, Its blasts sweeping In just the opposite dl rectlon from those that preceded them, thus creating a terrible cross sea, and to churning and heaping up the waters In broken waves, and pitching and tossing the helpless hulk about that it was little short of a miracle if it escaped being eh' gulfed. But now the captain not only knows from a glance at his barometer and a look at the clouds when such a storm is approaching, but he can tell In what direction its dreaded center lies, and which way it is traveling, and so can direct hie High from a visible danger. He may not be able to escape the storm entirely, but its worst perils he can almost always evade. It is no small satisfaction to reflect, when the commotion of winds and clouds along the coaBt proclaims that a cyclone Is stalking in all the terror its might aoross the those who chance to be within its grasp have been armed by science with the knowledge which en ables them to match the wit of man against the rage of nature In a contest that is not unequal.

Like the Comte de Paris, Boulanger evidently derives much satisfaction from issuance of his manifestos. The people ot France as well as of the rest of the world have ceased to pay much attention totheharrangues ot this political mountebank. If Boulanger ever had any influence he has well nigh lost It. There was a time when he was considered in the light of a great leader, who had aroused the jealous ire of his political opponents. Even after he had ran away to Brussels there were thousands whose faith in him remained unshaken.

But since his sojourn in England, and the trial before the senate he has well nigh lost the last rem Mil of this following. From thefindingof the court of inquiry then it little doubt that Boulanger was a party to a conspiracy to overthrow the present government trial has also.served to show the true Character efjhA nan who would probably 'have placed himself at the head of affairs.

Kansas is one ot the healthiest states in the union, and yet It is a fact that a Kansas man never comes back from a visit in some other im- liean.

While the eastern portion of the Union, on the tea board, has been devastated by storms, the west has enjoyed moat beautiful weather dry, it anything; yet nothing has suffered for want of moisture. Well, the United States senatorial com mission has come and gone, after a pi ant, Interesting session. A number of persons came from adjoining counties, apparently hoping that the committee could de something to relieve their per sonal wants.

In the evening, at the opera house meeting, which was crowded, Senator Jones, ot Arkansas, altogether the most pleasant speaker of the committee, made a most significant remark, to the effect that "Heaven helps those who help themselves," which is about the size of It. Western Kansas paid Into the federal treasury for a big lot ot pretty dry land, with very poor present prospect of getting anything back from the government. have always been slighted, both by tie stale and federal governments, ana this is llxly to be the case for some time to come. The only "help" likely to do any good here is for every man to put his own shoulder to the wheel and get himself out of the slough, if he is one, and some appear to think they are. One of our farmers last spring put a five strand wire fence around rive acres of alfalfa and then divided it into two pieces of two and one-half acres each.

He put forty hoga of all sizes into one piece last March aud after a month's feeding shifted them into the other piece. They could not near use up all the feed fast as it could grow. In four months the pigs had gained 45 poundi. each, or 1,800 pounds, and were in perfect healtu. They were then put into an other feed lot and the alfalfa was allowed to go to seed.

Twelve bushels, worth about 18.00 a bushel, wee harvested from the five acres. Thus about $85 worth of pork and $86 worth of seed was taken from the five-acre lot in one season. At this rate Fir.ney county ought to supply Hutchinson packers with all the pork that is likely to be needed in the future. In no other way can so much pork be made so cheaply. Another farmer here got a ekan.il sample, about one ounce of Dakota sprit Wheat, No.

1 hard, as it is called. This was carefully sown very late, about April sixth, and six and one-fourth pounds, or one hundred for one, was harvested July sixteenth. This is regarded by all who know of it, as a most interesting expert ment. In the same proportion, one bushel of aeed will produce one hundred bushels ot Wheat of a quality that brings a higher price than any other spring wheat in the market. It is experiments such as these that show the capacity of the country for profitable farming.

When practiced by hundreds of farmers, as they will be In a few years, great wealth cannot-fail to pour Into thia region. 'There cannot any doubt about this.

St John Is the name that is obnoxious to the Republicans of the banner state, and the Institutions will starve for want of patronage unless it is Patriot.

The Hutchinson Democrat undertakes to prove that all the editors in that town are good men because they belong to the various churches. This Is nice for the editors, but with due deference to them candor compels us to admit that it la pretty tough on the rence Trioune.

The people's convention, so long anticipated, came to the surface Saturday last Hon. W. H. Northeast was made chairman, and committees on resolutions end order of business were named by the ohairnsan, end at 1 o'clock 1 p. m.

Inations were in order. Tie resolutions arraign the Republican party for a rack- leas expenditure ot money and corruption in office, and ask men of all parties to help ticket named. Abe Frakes, the present incumbent, waa nom lasted for treasurer. W. J.

Brockman, who is also the present sheriff, was nominated to that office. A. Sutherland for recorder. F. W.

Rink, who is the present nominee on the Republican ticket, was aUo nominated for county clevk, and our irrepreasable, popular J. O. Nail for coroner. The ticket as named stands hall and half of each of the old parties and is a bard one to beat, although the political majority in the county ia as two to one in favor of the party, there seems to be a re axinj of all paity tics and a general to vote for the beet men. The Dighton cheese factory is in great luck.

Orders from the mountains are coming in faBt and their cheese gives the best of satisfaction. It is a settled fact that the buffalo grass of this region will make first clars butter and cheeBe, and that it takes less milk to make a pound of butter and cheese than the milk made from tame grass in the east. The pros pect now is that the cbeese factory will be enlarged aud put in first-class working condition, and thai the output will be doubled next season. Business is good, all tbe stores are doing a business, farmers are sowing wheat by tbe hundred acreB and everything is, looking tar better than in the paBt The Octoroon. The Isaac Peyton Comedy company played to a good house again last night' The play was "The Ootoroon," or "Life in Louisiana before the War," in which Miss Keene took the role of "Zou, tbe Ootoroon." Her playing was realistic and good.

Isaac Peyton as "Salem Boudder" was the star of the evening, while O. P. King as "Jacob MoOIoekey, Blllly Lee as "Pete" and F. E. Bpoouer as Wehnotte" were first olass.

The play is one of tbe best of modern dramas, and the Isaac Peyton company give it with good success. A fire on Main street and a little scrapping match in the rear ball- way added a little variety and considerable confusion during an interval ot tbe performance. To-night tbe company will play "The Mountain Pink, or Moon- ghluera in North Carolina," which is one ot the strongest plays In their repertoire. Popular prices, 25, 89 and SO cents They will play "Only a Farmer's Daughter" on Thursday ere. AilUnev Meetlug.

Last night about 10M the fire alarm There was a break tor Main street A Nnwa reporter joined the Crowd and soon found himself at Davis ft Krenrlch's store. The interior was ablaze. The draperies, silks, laces, cur tains, were on Sre on the shelves on the south side Ot the building. The fire department were soon on hand. The doors were broken onen and the fire was soon extinguished.

The loss will be large, as what goods were not burned by fire were ruined by water and smoke. It Is not knewn how the fire originated. The proprietors were up on Eleventh street attending a petty and arrived after the ft re had been put out It was impossible to estimate the Idea. The fire company's labor was impeded list night by the orowd which gathered around, and the police are open to oriticlsm for not keeping tbe crowd out of the way. There was the), usual cry for water.

About a halt dozen of the boys seemed to think it their duty to yell vigorously for this indlspenalble article. It seems a little organization would not be out of place with the it successful work cannot be performed. A Sensible Talk. One of the prosperous citizens of Grove township came inTuesday to attend the fair. In his walk-around town In tbe evening he called at the NEWS office, Speaking of his drive to the city he said 'In driving from Turon to Hutchinson on Tuesday many things of note came under my observation.

The most of the farmers have their wheat sown and great deal of it Is up. Corn cutting an hay making is in full blast Nearly every farm you pass you see it well stocked with hogs and cattle. One thing is commendable with the farms and that is 'eastern as it were. Four and five years ago when I came to this state it was thought that farming on eastern style that It would never pay, That it was useless to cut up the corn fodder, and to-day in coming to Hutch inson corn field after corn field was in the shock. In other fields the hands were at work cutting corn, and as good corn as ever waa produced anywhere, and the outlook for Reno county is to be the banner county of all' only of the state but of'the United Stater, when the husbandmen come down to business.
