Judge Key and His Salary.

Judge Key said the other day that
when he rccepted his position he fully
intended to bring his family to Wash
ington. I" sent for Mrs. Key" he said
:" to come and look over the ground with
me, and select house, if it should seem
best. We examined a number. OF
course, in this position, and with so large
a family, we should want large house.
The lowest that we found we could rent
q furnished house for, of suitable size
and location, was $500, or about one
third of my salary; we were offered a
suitable house for that (the one which
Secretary Thompson now has), but after
carefully figuring the matter up one side
and down the other, we found that my
salary was insufficient to allow me to
bring the family here and "keep house"

there would be $500 left. With a
large family in a large city, and living as
a Cabinet Minister with proper respect
for his position should, this would not 90

A Congressman gets about 81 900

He can attend to other business part of
the year. But Cabinet Minister can
not carry on business, and he must re-
main here all the time. Still I don't
complain, and don't believe in further

Missouri, Indiana and Other States De-
vastated-Frightfu1 Loss Of Life and
Destruction Of Property.
A destructive hurricane was expert
enced in several of the eastern and west
ern states, July 2, which inflicted great
damage and loss of life.
At OFallon Station, about II miles
from st. Louis, the freight depot of the
Ohio & Mississippi railroad was demol-
ished, brick elevator belonging to
Tiedermon & Co., badly damaged, a large
cooper-shop owned by the same company
blown down, the Episcopal and Catholic
churches seriously damaged, and several
small buildings demolished. Some
stores lost their roofs; and fences, trees,
ETC., were scattered about promiscuously
At Waverly, Jackson county, Ind,
about 8 o'clock at night, the storm
struck the residence of George Dressler,
blowing it entirely away, leaving the
fruit-cans in the cellar undisturbed.
Dressler was found near by, with his
feet larcerated and his chest badly in
jured. His wife and two children, 5 and
year old, were killed outright. An
other child has since died. Another
child, aged years old, received bad
scalp-wound, and had an ankle dislocated
1t is not expected to live.
The residence of James Armstrong,
near by was blown down, killing one
child instantly, and wounding another SC
that it has since died.
Near St. Paul, Ind, a number of barns
and dwellings and church and school
house were entirely destroyed. Michael
Meheslick was killed; Mrs. Kicker was
fatally injured, G. Juppeenlatz, injured
internally, and John Lewis had his col
lar bone broken. Farmers lose very
heavily.
In Wayne county, Ind, two persons
who had taken refuge in a bridge were
killed by falling tree crashing through
across their buggy.
In Morgan county, Ind, several houses
are reported blown down and many in
Jured. Two children have since died.
A school house was carried fifty yards
down hill, and another school house was
carried across a road into corn-feld,
and the school house furniture was scat
tered for half mile. One house was
despatched with mud, supposed to have
come from a stream half mile away, as
no rain accompanied the storm. The
corn, waist high, was literally torn to
shreds, and plowed ground was carried
away. The storm was from quarter to
a half mile in width
Reports from Parkersburg, Pa, Marl-
borough, N. Y, and Keane, n. H., state
that the storm inflicted great damage in
their respective neighborhoods, although
no lives were lost.

A Wedding Under Difficulties.
Springfield Republican


Belchertown, Mass, was highly ex-
cited latel y over an almost tragical we'd
ding of Amherst parties, who spell their
names Fry and Boil, and who came near
getting into a stew. The girls father
didn't want her to marry the man, and
so he took her to the place where her sis
ter was employed, till the wedding could
be arranged. The sister, however, was
also opposed to the match, being seized
by the green-eyed monster, because the
same fellow had previously made love to
her, and 50 she fastened the bride ex-
pectant in her room. After nights
incarceration he jumped from the win
dow and joined her lover at the hotel
The clerk of the house drove off furi-
ously for clergyman, and the Metho-
dist pastor was just beginning the cere-
mony when the sister appeared at the
window to forbid the bans. The certif-
icate was all right, however, and the
minister concluded to 90 on, but in his
excitement he read most of the baptis-
NAL service, beginning, "Whereas all
men are born in sin," and repeated the
names of the couple he last married.
The clerk held the door so that the sister
couldn't come in. On Sunday the girls
father came to the church door and call
ed the minister from the Sunday-schoo
class to demand of him why he married
his daughter, at the same time admitting
her of legal age Meantime the groom
had lost his place at Amherst, and left
for parts unknown to the grief of his

Life in Mormondom

The Corinne (Cal) Record says that
Memory McCrary, a brother of the See
retery of War, has been a Mormon for
the last twenty-five years, and has now
gone to Washington to see his brother.
He has two wives. The other day a re-
porter interviewed one of his sons, who
was quite communicative: He said his
father had taken his second wife about
eighteen months ago. "She was widow
named Thornton, and had batch of
young ones by her former husband.
But Lord, you ought to have seen the
rumpus mother kicked up when the old
man let on that he was going to marry a
second. She hit him on the snout with
a rolling pin, broke wash pitcher over
his head, tore his best Sunday-go-tc-
meeting coat all to strips, and threatened
to break his back if he ever brought No.
z to her house. | tell you, there was lots
of fun for a little while; but now it's all
over. Mother had to give in."

It's Way They Have in the Army.

It's way they have in the army: A
correspondent in the Turkish camp at
Shumla writes: +" was present recently
in the doctors private tent while he saw
his mornings patients, and curious
experience it was. Two non-commis-
stoned officers stood at the entrance by
sentries and ushered in man after man for
two hours. The doctor, seated on a
medicine chest just inside, felt pulses
and prescribed with the regularity of a
clock-ticking. Two native doctor
assistants, who squatted behind, handed
pill or gave draught, as directed.
Now and then, when an unmistakable
case of fever was discovered, the man
was told to go into the hospital, but the
majority were dosed there and then.
One man came up with a toothache. At
signal given, up jumped one of the
Turkish doctors, seized a pair of black
smiths pincers, and, going behind the
fellow, threw his left arm around his
neck as if he was going to strangle him.
In an instant capital double tooth, as
sound as young elephants sucking
tusk, was lying on the earth on the other
side of the tent. The patient, who had
never winked, mildly suggested that the
wrong one might have been drawn, as he
felt that the offender had work STILL

WAR NOTES.

FIFTEEN hundred persons fleeing from
Adler to the Turkish lines from fear of the
Russians, persisted from hunger.
III is officially announced that the Russian
losses in crossing the Danube at Sistova
were 500 killed and 400 wounded.
TWELVE thousand Russians who have
crossed the Danube at Sstova comprise TO-
600 cavalry, and go cannons. About $4,000
more Russians are concentrated between
Slmuitza and Turnu Magurelli.
A CORRESPONDENT at Zewin telegraphs
that in the battle on the 29th ult, the Rus
slams retired after enormous losses. The
Turks buried 1000 Russians The Turkish
loss was below 800.
IT is evident that the Russians are def
nitely established at Sistoya. and no concen-
tration of Turkish forces to drive them across
has taken place.
On the I'd insl., the Turks drove 10000
Russians from their positions at Karakilissa.
THE Russian army in Asia Minor has met
with serious disaster, and the left wing is
engaged in a disorderly retreat. This has
rendered the abandonment of the siege of
Kars necessity. The Russian loss during
the last week is estimated at 10000

state that the Turks are devastating a large
portion of Bulgaria for the purpose of pre-
