M. C. Barrow, a young man inthe postal service ou tho U. P. rail-

road, was last week caught, the tele-

graph says, in the act of robbing themails. Meris is a son of Eld. Barrow,State Evangelist of the ChristianChurch, Is intellectually a brightyoung man, and we are sorry to hearthat he could not be honest. In de-

fault of bail he was sent to jail. Asmany of the people in this part of theState are well acquainted with Eld.Barrow and his family, will feel adeep Interest In the terrible misfor-

tune that has overtaken him, wecopy from the Omaha Republican re-

garding the crime and arrest :

For Beveral months complaints of aserious nature have been received byspecial mall agent Furay in thia o"y.of lobses of loiters on the Union Pa-

cific Railway, and It was believed thelosses occurred between Laramie andOmaha in mails coming east. Meas-ures were at once adopted to locatethe thief, and for some time Mr. Fu-

ray and his assistants were satisfiedthat a young and bright clerk by thename of M. C. Barrows was the guil-ty party. Owing to a press of courtbusiness, Mr. Furay aud SpecialAgent Seybolt were unable to Investi-gate at once, and thus the matterrested until last Saturday, when Mr.Furay went to Cheyenne and arrest-ed young Barrows.

It had been notioed by the olerkson Barrows division for Borne tlmthat he spent a great deal of money 4

smoked the finest cigara, and woregood clothes, and knowing theplaints about the mails being tamper-ed with, their suspicions were arous-ed, and they commenced watchinghim.

Mr. Furay sayB George Hammondwas the first to make the discovery,and It occurred while the traina wereat Laramie, where they stop twentyminutea. Barrow was in the habit ofleaving his own car and visiting thepostal oar of his brother olerks, andvoluntarily helping them to distrib-ute the New York mall. He wouldfinger the letters, and If any.ofthemfelt or looked as if they containedmoney, he wouid drop them down onthe floor, and afterwards dexterouslyslip them Into his ppokets. Ham-mond could see this pile of selectedletters on the floor, but he could notsee Barrows put them Into IiIb pooket,owing to his position, but he did seethat when Barrows moved away thattho letters on tho floor had mysteri-ously disappeared. Hammond com-

municated this information to fclerkEllsworth, who kept hlB eyes openthereafter and saw BarrowB gothrough the same operation. Ells-worth and Hammond both tried towatch him on their train, but he wastoo cunning for them, as tboy oouldnot detect him in getting away withany of tho letters, although they werepositive that ho was doing the busi-

ness.Ellsworth finally lold clerk Kennls-to- n

to stand by and watoh the propertime, and at last, on the 1st, 2d, aud3d of this month, Kenneaton sawBarrowa put letter In his pockets.

Kennlston then induced Barrows toplay a game of billiards at Laramie,and while Barrows wont out for a fewmoments, leaving his ooat behind Inthe billiard room, Konnlston felt Inthe coat pooket and found letterstherein. He took out only one, thisbeing done In tho presenoe of' a wit-ness, Reynolds, who Is also a postalclerk. The game of billiards wasplayodout, and' then Mr. Furay wasinformod by telegraph of the discov-ery, and ho immediately went tocCl--- . ' -- - jnrrePted Barrows. Tho prisoner wastaken ta Laramie, and on Monday, athis own requost, he was arraigned bo-fo- ro

How Will the Wheat Crop of 1SS0

Sell.

Rural New-Yorke- r-

For the past three or four years ourfarmers have been fortunate in find-

ing profitable markets for their wheatcrops, despite the vast additions an-

nually made to tbe area under thiscereal. The last report of the De-

partment of Agriculture puts the con-

dition of this crop throughout thewhole country at seven per cent, bet-

ter this year than at the same datelaat year, and a moderate estimate ofthe aggregate Increase iu yield placesit at 20,000.000 bushels. Yet Inthe face of this unparalleled crop,prices now leave a fair margin of prof-it to the farmer, and there la little orno doubt but that they will rise con-

siderably so soon as a moderate ex-

port trade shall succeed the rushwhich is now overstocking our for-

eign markets, and consequently keep-ing down prices there. Stimulatedby their past and present successeswith this crop, there Is a strong prob-ability that our farmers will devote toit the comingjyenr even a larger areathan they have hitherto done, In theexpectation that next year they willfind for It an equally profitable mar-ket. What Is tbe prospect that thisexpectation will be realized?

Two circumstances havo contributedchiefly to the good fortune we havemet with In our wheat productionduring tbe last few years: the cropshere have been excellent, while thoseabroad have been more or less defic-

ient, and the shortagethere, fortu-

nately for us, has been in inverse pro-

portion to the inorease here. Thelatest trustworthy statistics of thowheat harvest throughout Europesays that, taking 100 as representingthe average harvest, that of the pres-

ent year In Austro-Hungar- y may berepresented by 78 ; In Germany by 85;

In France by 78 ; in Switzerland by 80;

in Italy by 73 ; in England by 71: InRussia by 79 ; and In Roumania by 90.

Of oourse, aa the harvest, aa a rule,haB not been threshed there yet, con-

siderable modifications may have tobe made in these figures ; but it Is

hardly probable that these modifica-tions will be for the better. Evenwith full uverage crops, Europe wouldrequire a large measure of foreign as-

sistance to feed her teaming popula-tion, and, of course, with these defic-

iencies everywhere in her supply, theamount of foreign cereals needed tokeep her people from starvation,must be proportionately greater thanIn years of average harvest?. More-

over, the wheat crop la not the onlyfailure across the Atlantlo this year;moat of the other crops also havobeen more or le3s short, aud the defic-

it in these must be made up from out-

side sources, chleily In wheat pro-

ducts, because these can bo transported more easily and cheaply than anyother equivalent form of food.

Is It probable, however, that thepresent ill-luc- k will attend Europeanagriculture next year? Will theweather th"' o - "ta tnthe farmers' efforts and hopes? fortbe present poor harvests are ou allhands attributed chiefly or wholly tothe exeorablo weather which duringthe laat year haa aflllctod nearly thewhole of Europe. These are questionsupon which our readers are as wellable tospeoulate as oureelvea. Theycan also see with equalolearness thatan abundant wheat crop across theAtlantic next year, is certain to les-

sen the demand for our cereal pro-

ducts, and as the supply hero Is like-ly to be unusually groat, the prices, Inthat case, would necessarily be unusually low, unless a poor crop here bydiminishing our surplus should In-

crease the price for it.

ter Into two lota, while yet in theform of Cream, and for one make useof Perfected Butter Color made byWells, Richardson & Co., Burlington,Vt., while the other goes to marketwithout color, and he will discoveron what course his interest depends.This color gives the fine, rlob, goldenyellow of first quality June butter,and is not tinged with the dull redtint, objected to In most butter colors.
