Y., Oct. 21.—Convict No. 24,498 111 die state prison was commit ted as Join .Murphy, alias -Frank Ma son, from New York for attempted bur glary, and has two years and six luouihi to serve. Chief of Police McMaster recently re ceived a letter from ex-Sheriff John Kivel of Argyle, Minn, requesting assistance in finding liis son, Fred M., who disappeared from home ten years ago at the age oi 14. Nothing had been heard from him until a few weeks ago, when Mr. Kivel received a letter signed Frank Mason, No. 135 State street, Au burn, N. Y., and saying that the writer was his son. No. 135 State street is the prison, but Mr. Kivel was uot aware of that fact when he wrote the letter in which he stated that bis father died a short time ago, bequeathing a large amount of property to his missing grandson. A detective called at the prison and fully identified Mason as young Kivel, and so notified his father, who was greatly distressed to learn that his son was a convict. He is now on his way east, and will apply to Governor Black for the young man’s pardon. Medical men say rheumatism is the forerunner of heart disease.

Dalton, Ga., Oct. 21. —Bohannon ami his accomplices were caught in an at tempt to break jail. They had obtained a small steel saw and had cut seven bars in two. They had three more to cut to get to the brick wall; An hour’s work would have let them out of the cage. The prisoners in the cage appeared to be very jolly and sang for an hour. The singing was to drown the noise of the saw. The jailer became suspicious, and without giving an alarm kept close watch. He discovered what was going on, gave the prisoners a stiff talk and told Bohannon to produce the saw. Bohannon xvas inclined to put the re sponsibility on the others, but they would not have it. So Bohannon lifted Sam Painter up on his shoulders and Painter pulled the saw from a crack in the wall behind the cage. Bohannon was very much taken aback by the discovery. He has evi dently been counting on getting away in a few nights. Once through the iron bari-ed celh they could Imve dug through the brick wall in an hour or so. To Core a Gold In One Day.

New Turk I'm per Hukn* It* Fl-ial of Mie Yield For ISO?. New York, Oct. 21.—Not since 189* has the potato crop of the United States proved so nearly a failure, says The American Agriculturist in its final re port of the yield of 1897. Compared With the liberal crop of last year there is an apparent falling off of nearly 30 per cent in tonnage, and the quality of the whole is greatly deficient. County -nnd township returns from all the leading potato growing states to this weekly newspaper show the yield of potatoes to be 174.000,000 bushels against 240.000.000 in 1890, 2b6,000,000 in 1895. 185,000,000 in 1894 and oulv 155,000,000 in the short crop of 1892. The average rate of yield per acre is placed at 64 bushels, taking the country at large, against 86 busnels in 1096, 89 in 1895 and 62 in 1892. The reasons for the disaster to the potato crop of 1897 are about as varied as a multiplicity of causes could make them. Standing out with more promi nence than any other two factors are blight and rot, as a result of extremes of weather conditions. Excessive rain fall here and there, failure of germina tion, later serious drouth, rust, scab, insects, etc., have all been prominently in evidence, though complaints of this character are less general than for the two first named. While the yield in bushels is small th* quality is also deficient. This is true of most, but not all states. The crop is best in the northwest. Such portions of Canada as make a specialty of potatoes, notably Ontario and the maritime provinces, show a general but not serious shortage.
