The Christie-Street Commission Co.of Kansas City Wednesday received the following crop report from someone in Wellington, in which the conditions are much exaggerated: "We are having freezlug weather today, something remarkable for this part of the country at this time of the year. If we succeed in harvesting 40 per cent of an average crop we will be agreeably surprised. A majority of fields are entirely past redemption.

Fully one-half the acreage sown in wheat will be plowed up and considerable of the remainder will never be worth the cutting. Weather conditions from this time oh will be of little or no benefit to the plant." Kansas City Journal: W. S. Rob erts, a merchant of Caldwell, who came to this city on business, but took time to absorb a few "bowls" on the side, got himself into trouble by being too pronounced in his disapproval of some part of the performance at the Grand last night. He had made a day of it, so those who siw him say, and thought he'd try a night of it "A Day and Night," in fact for he went to the Grand.

He saw something there not to his taste and gave vent to his feelings in the matter by a yell which nearly stopped the play. Then Officer Hayden did a specialty by conveying Roberts to the police station. He gave bond for his appearance in police court this morning, but the city is ahead the amount of his bond, for he made for his train as soon as he was at liberty. Remarkable tare or Rhenmatism.
