Columbia, Mo., March 19.—The following report on the condition of the wheat and peach crop in Missouri was made public by Secretary George B. Ellis, of the State Board of Agri- culture: + The acreage sown to wheat last fall was 2,339,410. The condition of wheat on Deceni- ber 1 was considered above the aver- age, and generally remains good. Oa some of the flat prairie soils and hill clay lands there has been cons id- erable damage by freezing and thaw- jng, but usually in the large wheat- growing counties the condition is a condition of from 85 to 110. The southwestern portion of the state shows from good to excellent. In the extreme southeastern portion the condition is generally good. The average condition for the entire state is 87, which fs a good showing for this time of the year. * Phe northern portion-of the state shows a fairly good condition of the peach crop, Only a few correspond- ente in this part of the state report A Promise Dodged. From the New York Press A portly man walked into a Gilded Gehenna on Broadway the other night and requested the barkeeper to pour him out a drink of Seotch. The portly man kept his thumbs tightly thrust foto the armholes of his wafat- coat. The barkeeper poured out the whisky and shoved the glass across the bar. “Thanks,” said the portly man. “Now would you mind holding the glass up to my mouth while I drink it?” With a wondering stare the bar- keeper held up the glass and the rotund customer drank the whisky ceedings with interest touched him on the shoulder, “‘Pardon me, sir,” he sald, “if Iseem to be unduly in- quisitive, but you seem to be pos- sessed of two good hands. Would you mind telling me why you could not lift that glass yourself?” “Q, that’s all right,” replied the gentlemen of the robust build with a ‘mellow rumble, ‘You see I pro mised my wile that never again would I raiee a glass of whisky to my lipa! The School of Mines Director Frequents a Billiard Hall. Jefferson City, March .19 —The special visiting commitie of the stute university and school of mines has made its reports to Governor Folk, and the governor made public a part of it. The report finds that Dr. G. E. Ladd of the school of mines in Rolla has been guilty of neglect of duty in being absent a conslderable time from the school work. It also finds that he has been engaged in ‘| playiog billiards ia a public hall in Rolla, where gambling is sometimes carried on, The proprietor of this place does not have a good reputa- tion, the report says. It is also found by the report that $500 of the funds cf the school was used ia de- fraying the expenses of Prot, Draper for a position in the mining exhibits at the World's fair. This the com mittee holds, was a misappropria- tlon of funds, but the appropriation was approved by the executive com- mittee of the university. Walter Williams, chairman of the eXevlVe coumittee, Was here out- urday fu consultation with Governor Folk, and {t is now considered prob- able that Dr. Ladd will be removed at the meeting of the board of cura: tors which is to be held {n April. The report also censures Secretary C. L. Woods of the school of mines for receiving $2,000 for printing for this school. The report says that Woods asserts that the printing plapt belongs to his wife, and, while this may be true, the report says this is certainly a violation of the spirit of the law. The committee was composed of W. O. L. Jewett, Benton Gabbert, T H. Bolte, Edward T. Eversol and Charles E. Yeater. He Ran Away to Get Pie. From the Philadelphia Ledger. Walter Welsh, 8 years old, took a chance on getting apple ple last Monday night by climbingfrom a third-story window at his home at 11 Garrett avenue. Then he appeal- ed tostrangers in the street, pretend- ing to be & poor lost child. The boy has considerable experi ence in getting pie suppers and he found his lady bountiful last night, as usual, He met two monwith a woman, and the latter took pity on him when be said he was lost and hungry, and hurried him to a res- taurant. “Do you like roast chicken, Wal ter?” asked the woman. “Yes, but I would rather have some pie,” was the frank answer. He agreed to eat roast chicken, however, and was taken to the police station. The sergeant there, having “glated” Walter every Sunday ev en- ing for several months, explained to the buy’s hosts that they had been imposed upon. The child is well fed and clothed by his parents, and {t is ouly his craz9 for apple pio that leads tim to run away. “My parents give mo potatoes, meat, bread and~batter, tea and coffee, cheese and crackers, but no you run away?” he was asked. “Not tonight, but I took my chance on it.” American Wife of Count Sends Husband to Prison.

Denver, March 19 —Ouray, Duran. go, Silvertou, Leadville, Aspen and other smaller mining camps have been visited with snowslides during the last few days. Hairbreadth escapes from the snow which thun- ders down the stevp sides of the mountains are reported from every mining camp, and grave fears are entertained for scores of daring prospectors and miners who are cut off from the outside world in their lonely cabins far up {n the bills. One slide in Silverton struck the edge of the town, duing considerable dam- age. The railroads in the San Juan region are blockaded. The South Park road is blocked by a slide near Leadville. The mines around Crest- ed Butte are completely cut off from transportation. Late reports told of a general storm of unprecedented severity for this season throughout the eastern and central portions of Colorado, but clearing weather is looked fur.
