Terrific Storm.

Our exchanges contain startling accounts OF
damage done BY the terrific storm Of Monday
light. This neighborhood appears TO have
almost miraeulously escaped iss destructive ef-
fects, no serious damage having been done, so
far as We have heard, though il was regular
tornado here also. .
A few minutes after 20 clock the Eastward
bound train on the !. 4 c. Railroad sncoun.
tered the storm just before reaching the bridge
across the White Water River The train
consisted of the engine. tender, two passenger
and two freight cars, ell well laden. Justas
the engine Was about entering the bridge,
which is q covered one, the wind struck the
train, and lifting three Of The cars from The
track. carried them down an embankment
some Twelve feet In depth. The fourth car
was only partially removed from the trucks.
The coaches contained some sixty psssen-
gers, aud, strange TO say, but six or eishtwsre
injured. all slightly. Mr.. John Eagan, the
conductor, vas cut 10 the hand and also about
the head. Mr.. Cohn. the baggage master. was
also injured, probably more so than any other
individual on the train. None Of the passen-
gers we're injured so much as TO prevent them
from walking frou the depot, after their arri-
val in the city about 10 o'clock 10 the morn
ing. One Of the passenger cars was badly
wrecked, but the others can easily be repaired
The track was not injured in the leasi, aud
trains are now running regularly.
A freight car attached TO train on the w.
w. v. X. f. was blown from the track, but
sustained no serious damage.
At Elizabeihtown, the Methodist church,
brick structure, was unroofed and the walls
badly damaged. A brick mill at the same
place was damaged to the extent Of several
thousand dollars. Besides the above, numer-
Gus dwelling houses were more or less dsoi-
aged.
At Newtown, Ind, not far from lawrence
burg, q small brewery Was unroofed. aud one
of the walls leveled to the ground. Casks
we're demolished, aud beer barrels were scat
tered in every direction
At Valley Junction the house Of Thomas H.
Hunt was partially unroofed, and about fifty
forest trees ia The rear Of J,hn Karts house
were torn up by their roots or broken 10 two
and thrown TO the ground
TRe Ceves bridge was partially nuroofed
aud The w,alherboarding torn off, Several
Dwellings in the village also suffered damage.

The Oxford Citizen gives the details OF n
tragedy which recently occurred near Noun.
Carmel They are as romantic as anything
which novelisIs have invented. A young girl,
the daughter of wealthy parents, was educated
nj Que Of the seminaries In Oxford, and II was
the intention Of her parents that she should
make match that would give her high po-
s'ion In the world. She fell in love, however,
with young farmer who was quite poor The
parents forbade her to have anything TO say TO
him, bat they managed to exchange letters
through the assistance of a young minister.
Finally, they proposed to elope. but the 20.
between became enamored Of the lady, and
prevailed on her TO run of with him instead OF
the farmer. They eloped and were. married.
The grief Of the farmer knew no bounds. De.
iermined upon revenge, he armed himself with
a revolver, aud swore that the young divine
should die for his treachery. A couple oil
weeks ago the rivals met. aud the farmer open

THIS Drill Is now being extensively introduced
i into all Of the Corn draining states.
The old method Of planting corn in hills Is
rapidly being superseded by the IMPROVED
method of drilling, by which, II properly done,
from I've to ten per cent par acre Il added to the
yield.
The Campbeii driil is on the principle Of the
DRIVING WHEEL and REVOLVING DROP
PLATE or DISK, which Is the very best for dis.
tributing the seed, as the grain Is immediately
within the view of the operator from the time {
leaves the seed box until 1t is deposited in the
ground, and Is instantly covered, by deposit,
With two shires, of mellow earth, which protects
the corn during the frat working
Nearly all Of the corn raised In the Great MI
ami and w hitowater Valicys 10 planted with the
Campbell drill, and from the knowledge we have
acquired In the last ten years IN manufacturing
Corn Drills, We have no hesitation In saying,
that, with the present Improvements we have
adopted, we have the best Corn Drill 10 use. One
bow and horse can plant as fast as ono man can
furrow out,and farmers say that Ills easier tended
than corn planted in hills
To plant Broom Corn or Sorghum we furnish
device when ordered, which closes the holes in the
bottom plate the proper size for the seed WHICH
Is but a moments work 10 change.
We could furnish any number Of certificates,
from farmers In proof of the foregoing IL IL were
necessary, but the increasing de nand Is sufficient
evidence Of their decided preferences.
