The home of Mrs. Hassell, a widow, was whirled away, injuring none of the eight occupants. The Malloy family, who took refuge in the cellar, remained only about five minutes and the father suggested that the cloud was only rain. They came up and in an instant the house was demolished, the dead and in jured being rcattered among the ruins The homes of Phil, and Joe Berger and Patrick O'Xeil were reduced to kindling wood. Pat Mallow says that houses, barns, lire stock and human beings were sucked up by the terrible funnel-shaped cloud, the air appearing to be filled with wrecked buildings and debris for half a mile high. This was the sixth tornado in that section this season. -At Homer, Nebraska, a revival tent was blown over and an unknown woman fatally injured. Gems Froat HcKinley'i Speeches.

The Mark Lane Express, in its weekly crop report today says, Belgium, Holland, Italy and parts of Austria-Hungary, promise average wheat crops. In France, Germany, Spain and Poland the crops are fair and i there are hopes for a full, average crop. In Russia the drouth is too prevalent to allow a hopeful yield of either wheat or rye. In Roumania, Servia and Bul garia a short wheat crop is regarded as inevitable. CONCERNING THE SOLDIERS. ! QUEER OLD NATURE.

The other scholars were all attention by this time, which was precisely what Tommy wanted, and he assumed a look of un smiling innocence as he continued, "I drored a runnin dawg, not a standin still one, an I was a-headin Mm off so'a be wouldn't run off th' tablet an git on th' floor." The other children laughed nproari omsly at this, whereupon Tommy air veyed them with such an assumpti-m of surprised indignation that their -arista was redoubled. The teacher was t,ir genuinely angry. She was a matter of fact young woman to whom normal school methods were both law and gos pel, and here was a flagrant case of downright falsehood that must bo ex posed as an awful example to the entire grade of pupils. She walked slowly and firmly down the aisle and picked up Tommy's tablet. The white sheet was unsullied by a single mark of any kind. "Tommy," she said sternly, exhibit ing the sheet to the pupils, "there isn't a dog or anything else here. " "Course there isn't," said the una bashed Tommy. " Whu'd I tell ye?

Rebuke by General Washlegt That Evidently Frightened tae Owner. Major William Pierce left behind him a partial record of the debates in Philadelphia which supplement those of Madison, Yates and King; also the following anecdote: When the convention first opened at Philadelphia, there were a number ol propositions brought forward as great leading principles for the new govern ment to be established for the United States. A copy of these propositions was given to each member, with an injunc tion to keep everything a profound se cret One morning, by accident, one of the members dropped his copy of the propositions, which, being luckily pick ed up by General Mifflin, was presented to General Washington, our president, who put it in his pocket. After the de bates of the day were over and the ques tion for adjournment was called for tht general arose from his seat and, previ ous to his putting the question, address ed the convention in tho following man ner: "Gentlemen, I am sorry to find that some one member of this body has been so neglectful of the secrets of the con-1 vention as to drop in the statehouae a copy of their proceedings, which by ac cident was picked up and delivered tc me this morning. I must entreat gen tlemen to be more careful, lest out transactions get into tho newspapers and disturb the public repose by premature speculations. I know not whose papci it is, but there it is (throwing it down on the table). Let him who owns it take it" At the same time he bowed, picked up his hat and quitted tho room with a dignity so severe that every person seemed alarmed. For my part, I waf extremely so, for, putting my hand in my pocket, I missed my copy of the same paper, but, advancing up to the table, my fears soou dissipated. I found it to be the handwriting of another per son. When I went to my lodgings at the Indian Queen, I found my copy in a coat pocket which I had pulled off that morning. It is something remarkable that no person ever owned the paper. American Historical Roview. Yellow fever is unusually violent at Vera Cruz.

Ddbinq the month of May there were coined in the United States mints, 24214,000 standard silver dollars for gen eral circulation, every one of them worth as much as a gold dollar. A modest railroad flagman at Chicago the other day, Martin O'Malley, over 50 years old, sprang to the rescue of a little girl who was about to be struck by a passing engine, barely having time to throw her out of danger, but being himself crushed by the train. A hero, indeed. The turning down of W. M. Clary, of Otoe county, who was applicant for the auperintendency of the reform school at Kearney, by Governor Poynter, at whose suggestion the application was made, is another indicator that no democrats need apply for a job nnder the present ad ministration. Nebraska City News. Hebe is some good advice: "Girls, dont go with the boys who haven't the mental - capacity to listen to a good thirty-minute sermon, but who stand in the hall of the church and wait till the senaon is over and then ask to 'see yoa home.

Washington, June 9. Special Tele gram. Although two other volunteer regiments havo the priority of leaving the Philippines the First Nebraska will in all probability get away in the lead, according to a cablegram from General Otis. In this message General Otis stated the Oregon regiment would leave Manila about June 12 and would go di rect to Portland, its point of muster out, on the transports Ohio and New port. The Nebraska troops, according to General Otis, will sail in a day or two on the transport Hancock, which is con sidered a most comfortable ship. This disposition of tho returning vol unteers nas been made at the instance of the Oregonians, who elect to leave later and divide the regiment in order to secure pleasant accommodations. The Nebraskaus will be mustered out in San Francisco and will be given travel pay to Omaha. General Otis has been instructed by the president to have all arrangements made to insure the returning troops a comfortable voyage and have them so placed that sickness will be next to an impossibility by reason of close contact It is said by the officials of the War de partment that instructions have been given the officials at Manila not to load the transports too heavily, in order that the troops may be returned to their mustering out point with little or no sickness. The cablegram from Manila that Ag uinaldo has dissolved the Filipino con gress and proclaimed himself dictator is entirely discredited by the State de partment Nearly all the members of the Filipino congress, it is asserted from authoritative sources in Manila, have surrendered themselves to the United States forces and are now in Manila, where it would be possible to call together a majority of Agninaldo's late officers. This, however, is not the intention of either the Philippine com mission or1 General Otis to do. a it VtnlW Via J uuiu ue cuutsiruea as a quasi recogni tion and according to instructions from the State department this is to be avoided.

Tho pay ing teller examined tho check with that air of suspicion a paying teller nevei losos. "You'll nave to be identified, mad am." he said politely, The woman was in a great hurry. "Identified!" she said. "Why, J haven't time to go and get anybody tc identify me! Besides, I don't know three people in town. " "I'm sorry," said tho teller, "but the rule is invariable. " "But," protested the woman, "1 really am the Mary L. Brown named on the check. You don't doubt that dc you?" Tho teller looked embarrassed. "It's only a form, madam," he said, "but we must insist on some identifica tion." A happy thought struck the woman. Her name was on her handkerchief. "Would the name on my handker chief be any identification?" she asked. The teller replied that it would. "Well, then," said she majestically, handing over the square of linen, "per haps you'll be good enough to give me the money now!" Tho teller examined the handkerchief and handed it back without a word. In one corner was daintily written in in delible ink, "Sarah Jones." Tho check was not cashed till next day, and the newly arrived woman has discharged her laundress. Washington Post Way They Are Se Severe aaa Ben Shonld Be Treated. It is commonly said that a sprained joint is worse than a broken bone, and this is often true, for in a severe sprain the injury is really greater than in a simple fracture. The ankle is perhaps the most frequently sprained of all the joints, though the knee, elbow and wrist are also very liable to be injured, in falls especially. A sprain of a joint varies greatly in severity. It may consist of a simple wrench, without the tearing of any of the ligaments, or it may bo a moro ex tensive injury, stopping just short of a dislocation. In a moderately severe case one or more of the ligaments of the joint will be torn slightly, or possibly completely across. The membrane beneath the lig aments, which retains the lubricating fluid of the joint will be ruptured, per mitting the escape of more or less of this fluid into the parts about and giv ing rise sometimes to a considerable swelling. This swelling may be increas ed also by an effusion of fluid into the joint, especially if inflammation sets in, and finally there is usually a slight or even sometimes a quite pronounced es cape of blood into the tissues, and this, gradually working to the surface, ap pears as a black and blue stain. In more severe cases the tendons pass ing over the joint and attaching the muscles which move it to the bones may suffer considerable damage, or one ol them may be broken or torn from its at tachment bringiug with it a sliver of bona Where so much harm has been dono to all the parts bones, ligaments, tendons and muscles it is easy to un derstand that much pain will result and that tho euro will be tedious. In the treatment of a sprain the first thing to be aimed at is to relieve pain and prevent inflammation, then to favor healing of the torn structures, and after that to restore the use of the limb. The first of these objects is accom plished by absolute rest of the injured part the limb being raised, and by lead and opium wash, a spirit lotion, or such other local applications as the physician may prescribe. Swelling is prevented in a measure and pain is sometimes re lieved by firm bandaging with a flan nel bandage.

It is some times necessary in very severe cases tc treat the sprain by means of splints, ex actly as if it were a fracture or disloca tion. Youth's Companion. MUZZLED DUCKS.

The German emperor as king of Prus sia has the sole right to name streets, and he has just refused his consent to tho proposal to call two streets after the names of Dr. Bertram and Dr. Langer haus, two popular members of the mu nicipal council. His majesty disapproves of such a course during the lifetime of the godfathers. This apparently refers to men of official standing only, whose political opinion might change after the streets had been named, for the Mommsenstrasse in Charlottenburg was recently passed with approval. Some aew German streets have a tendency to long names. "Prince August von Wur tembergstrasse" is today a name and nothing more. The houses have still to be built THE NEW YORK YOUTH.

Tommy was tho most in corrigible pupil in that particular room, making the half hour spent there daily one of mingled doubt and anguish of spirit to the drawing teacher. The other day Tommy was evidently engaged in some new form of mischief. His draw ing pad lay upon the desk before him and his hands were hovering over it. now swooping down at one side of the paper, now at the other, as if corralling some unwilling ant or other insect seek ing to escape. "Tommy," said the drawing teacher suddenly and sharply, "what are yon doing?" "Nothin," was Tommy's instant re ply. Then he added, "Nothin but keep in this 'ere dawg from runnin away.

A baggage man on the Santa Fe who runs into Kansas City from out in the western part of Kansas has lost lots of sleep. It is doubtful if he can ever catch up with it. .He leaves Hutchinson at night and reaches Kansas Oity in the morning. Nearly every night ho brings in bis car two or three coops of live do mestic ducks. During the night, when he has no baggage to deliver at small stations, it has been his habit and privi lege to lie down on an improvised couch and doze. With tho advent of the ducks the dozing stopped. The almost constant quacking of the ducks, who could not understand their 'strange environment, would not permit of sleep. For many nights as he lay awake he planned relief. He thought of strangling tbe ducks or chloroforming them. But neither expedient seemed good. One night a bright idea came to him. After he had put it into execution the ducks were silent. The next night he had two coops of unusually vociferous ducks. As soon as it came time for sleep he wrenohed a slat from one of the coops, reached in and pulled out a duck. From his pocket he took a small rubber band, which he slipped over the duck's bill just back of the nostrils. The duck tried to quack, but the rubber band, while it stretched s little, would not permit the duck to open its bill far enough to use its tonguo. Only a murmur came from it One by one the ducks ware muzzled, and the baggage man rested comforta bly. The commission men were surprised next morning when they received a lot of ducks with rubber bands around their bills, and when the bands were re moved the shouts of protest from the ducks wtre deafening. irnfw City Star.
