We were In the best of spirits. Jokes
'■And now. countess, please tell
... ch one of these many beautiful
women here Is the white lady, for It
goes without saying that a castle like
Kntzensteln must have Its white lady."
"Moat assuredly we have a white
lady," the counteaa replied rather stern
ly; "here Is her portrait." Shs pointed
to a painting of an unusually beautiful
lady wearing the costume of the pe
riod of the Thirty Years’ war and re
sembling In tha most striking manner
the young lady standing before us.
"Anu where does she appear? Did
you ever see her?”
“In the room which the major sur
geon Is to occupy tonight. She appears
only at dusk and Is then always seen
sitting very quietly In an easy chair in
front of the fireplace. I saw her there
myself. Just four years ago, a short
time before mamma died. It was almost
dark, and as I had no light I took her
to be one of the maids and said: "Why
do you not rise when you bear me
coming?" Then she turned her head
and I saw for the first and only time
the white lady of Katzenstein."
There is no doubt that the young
countess was In earnest, and her words
acted as & damper on our gaiety.
At last our lieutenant colonel trying,
to mako light -of the affair said to the,
surgeon: "Well, major, what would

NOTES ON GRAIN.
Pointers on Provisions.
H. W. Rogers & Brother received the
following from u leading hanking con
cern at Clarksville, Mo.: "The wheat
plant has gone back materially In the
last two weeks In this section. No
body seems to know Just what Is the
matter. The blades have a reddish
brown cast anil the lower leaves have
turned yellow. Most formers think ft
Is on account of the cold weather fol
lowing the extremely hot In March. I
drove over a largo territory In the Sny
bottoms, opposite this place In Illinois,
yesterday and it all looks the same.
Some of It Is spewed, or "yeasted,” as
ono man called It, and they all agree
that it bus deteriorated largely In the
Inat two weeks. \Ve are having freez
ing and thawing weather, mercury 25
to 45, with high winds and practically
no moisture. The millers here are buy
ing all the cash wheat nvntlnbte In an
ticipation of a short crop.”
Carml, 111., wired: "Green bugs now
wheat In this county; prospects de
teriorating.”
Following telegram to Barlett-Fra-
zler from Captain J. M. Phillips, New
ton. Kan.: "Partly cloudy, but doesn't
look like rain. Ground about as dry
as It can get. A good many fields show
ing effects of drought. Too dry to
grow any."
Following from Mr. Westbrook, of
omoha: "Went from Kearney to Mln-
den; examined practically all wheat
fields between the two points, and
found bugs In every Held. Stale ento
mologist with me said they were not
the same kind as In Oklahoma, hut
the same species and Juat us vicious.
There were a few bugs, however, the
name kind as In Oklahoma. We think
there has been damage done by cold
weather, but no damage yet by hugs.”
Snow says probability of rain lessen
ing hug uctlvlty In Kansas Is remote.
Soaking rain In Oklahoma on Friday,
April 6, and yet one "week later crop
wo* practically destroyed In sections
that still had fair promise when rnln
came. Cold and, wet weather do not
affect bugs, but do check development
of their natural enemies.

room tonight ana find the white lady
elttlng there?”
'Oh, I don't know, but If aha looks
» llke her portrait here, I have
should throw my arms around
her neck and klaa her."
"Of course you would," laughed the
colonel, ’’and that would be Just what
she would expect a Don Juan like you
to do.”
The countess' face took on a strange
expression, and It was evident that she
had her doubts aa to whether I would
have the courage to do as I said, but
she only shrugged her shoulders with
out saying anything.
The rest of the afternoon wa apent
daylng tennis, feeding the deer In the
arge park and Inspecting the splendid
thoroughbreds In the stables. Some
of us also went snipe shooting.
It was toward tha end of September,
the days had shortened considerably,
and It was growing dark aa I, return
ing from a long walk In the park, went
to my room to drees for the evening
meal. My room was on.the second
floor of the eastern wing, and I found
as I entered that I did not have a sin
gle match In tny pocket.
"Damn It!” I was about to exclaim,
when I looked In 'and saw sitting In
front of the fireplace a lady dreaaed In
a long flowing white robe, reaching to
her feet. She did not look up and
scorned lost In thought, and the ex
pression of her face; I could make out
even In the faint light, was one >.f
great sadness.
I must admit that my heart began to
beat so that I could almost hear It. I
knew there were matches on the table
near the bed. Should I strike one and
light a candle? No; that would be
foolish.
I picked up courage, walked over to
the chair, put my hand under the chin
of the supposed white lady and found
her to be a stuffed figure draped In a
sheet.
The next morning at 6 we started off.
rode behlpd the regiment through
the old gate across tho drawbridge,
which trembled under the weight of the
heavy guns, and as I looked back I
thought of the young countess who,
awakened by the rumjtlo of the gun
carriage, waa probably now smilingly
saying to herself: "There, I played a
fine trick on the surgeon. He Is not
very apt to brag of his meeting with
the white lady of Kalxensteln.”
And I did not.
