Town DESTROYED BY A WHIRLwIND.-
A despatch from Pensaukee, Wis, says a
terrible whirlwind struck that town Sun.
day night, leaving but three houses stand
ing. The Gardner House, large hotel,
was demolished. Residences, saw-mils,
trees, fences, etc, were swept away. Six
persons were killed and twenty wounded.
Five persons are missing. including some
guests of the hotel. The losses are heavy.
The storm tore up large trees as though
weeds and, whirled them in the air like
feathers. 1t is feared that further reports
will show additional casualties.

Inc Louisiana Bowbons are ACTING
i0ollShIy' and they are of great capacity
In that line. They have had the members
OF the Returning Board indicted. Gov,
NICHOLS was opposed to the proceeding as
IN violation of good faith, and though il is
very likely that New Orleans iury will
ma The members guilty of perjury it is
Just as probable that the governor will
pardon them.

We have noted the case of u mother at
tending the golden wedding of her daugh-
ter recently and now we are able to
chronicle the attendance of Louis Jacobs.
ST., l06 years old, upon the golden we'd
ding of his son ut Vienna, Mich. The eel
ebration concluded with feast and dance,
in which the old man led off in lively
French dance, his partner being beautf-
full French girl of l6 summers. Jacobs,
ST., was twice wounded in the war of
1872, but still continues frisky and well,
and feels as if he could outlive another
yet.

HOW THE GREAT FAMILIES DEpREcTArE

Oakley S. Barker, grandson of Cor
nelus Vanderbilt, was up in the courts or
charges of stealing and general swindling
For years the degenerate scion of rich Il
not noble house, has been doing the most
nelarious things, doubly bad because they
were not only dishonest but sneakingly so
and for years his uncles and aunts have
kept him out of the penitentiary, to save
the family name. But this time they have
decided to let him 90, for they feel that
any attempt at reform is hopeless. He
obtained goods under false protenses; he
stole jewc!ry, clothing and everything he
could lay his hands upon; he borrow ed
money and everything else, going so far
as to lay himself liable to the penitenliary
where he will finally land, Yet this young
man was the pet of the old Commodore
and was intended as one of his successors,
The old man used TO take him from VIII
liams College, in vacations, in special
car, and showered money upon him with
out stint. He is naturally bad one.

"MoLLIE " STARK.--A correspondent
says: An historic legend tells us tina
when, on the morning of the 10th o
August, 1777, the American troops under
John Stark beheld the British army N
Bennington, Stark addressed his soldiers
with, "There, boys, are our enemies; to-
night they must be ours, or NoIlie Stark's
Il widow" 1t is time, however, for poo
pie to remember that general John Stark S
wife was not named Mollie, or Mary, or
anything of the sort. She was Elizabeth,
the daughter of Caleb Page, Esq, of Dun
barton, N. H., and was married to John
Stark on the Goth of August, 1853. The
late Rev. Thomas P. Rodman has given us
u poem on 1.-The Battle of Bennington, ;"
from which we take the metrcal allusion
to the above legend;
The morning came-there stood the foe;
stark eyed them as they stood;
Few words he spoke-'twas not time
For mOralizing mood;
See there, the enemy my boys
Now, strong in valor's might,
Beat them, or BETTY Stark will sleep
In wdowhood light"

THE MENNONITES.

A ship-load of Russian Mennonites land
ed here yesterday, and went straight to
Nebraska. They did not stop to vote and
hold office for while, but went straight to
their farms. They are species of dunk
ars who will not bear arms, and prefer to
leave their native countries rather than do
military service. They are rich,-lhis
party averaging $4,000 gold They buy
their lands and have enough to stock them.
and commence making money at once.
OF course they settle, as they left, in col
onies. All of them read and write, and
they are as desirable citizens us any that
come 10 our shores. Nebraska gets the
most of them, that country being al
most identical with the one they left. This
party settle near Columbus, Nebraska, ON
