The WESTERN CYCLONE-AdditiOn
particulars of the tornado in Kansas last
week, show great damage to crops, build
ings, fences, ETC., all over that part of the
country. The town of Americus, near
Emporia, is almost entirely destroyed,
every building in it being more or less
damaged. The United Presbyterian church
was literally torn to pieces, and the MethO-
dist church was blown from its foundation
and almost totally destroyed. Several
houses in Emporia were blown down and
fences and other property seriously in
jured, The north and east additions to
the State Normal School were unroofed
and the walls partly torn down. The
wheat just ready for harvest, and other
crops everywhere in the track of the
storm, were either blown away or beaten
into the ground by the hail, an immense
quantity of which fell during the storm.
Southwest Missouri seems to have been
visited by the same storm that ravaged
parts Of Kansas. 4 waterspout broke in
a little valley in Barry county, in which
is situated the town of Seven Star Spring,
and before the people could reach the sur
rounding hills, torrent of water rushed
down, taking with 1t houses, tents, house.
hold goods and animals belonging to those
living near the springs. Three women, a
man and seven small children were swept
away by the food, but fortunately they all
lodged in bushes, and were rescued some
hours later, ..

The ILLINOIS WHEAT CRoP,-A special
to the Ne,Us from Springfield gives statis-
ties of the wheat crop, on, june 1st in
Illinois, from the forthcoming report of
Secretary Fisher, of the State Bureau of
Agriculture. The report shows that in
the southern division of the State, en-
bracing about two-thirds of the wheat area
of the State Il ,976, ,566 acres,) 16 per cent.
has been plowed up, and the remainder
promises yield of 80 per cent, or 27 per
cent. less than was promised an May lst.
The harvest will be much later than usual
and complaints of injury to wheat by
chinch bugs, the army worm and unfavor-
able weather, will prepare the public for
even more discouraging reports before the
crop is harvested. The central district
with an acreage Of 1,O36,SOl, over 40 per
cent. has been plowed up, and for the re-
mainder, on June list the promise was only
45 per cent. Of an average crop, as against
81 per cent, on May 1st. In the Northern
district, with the small acreage of s6,2e4,
57l per cent. has been BleTed up, and
only 81 per cent: of an average crop is ex.
pected from the remainder, as against So
PEI cent. on May LIST.

AND AND
SR00Hs| FORKS

These are articles OF such every
day household use, that few people
who handle them stop TO consider
how they are made, or OF what
material.
With many purchasers, it satisfies
them to be told that the articles are
Of solid silver.
But it is not enough TO know that
fork or a spoon is made Of silver.
There are great differences in silver;
andthere are all grades ofworkman-
ship in the making of these articles.
Our Forks and Spoons are made Of
Solid Silver, Of the British Sterling
Standard.
This 10 the only silver that will per-
fsctly answer the purpose.
American Coin Silver 10 too soft, and
wears poorly when put into such every
day use as 10 required Of spoons and
Forks.
Our facilities for making Spoons
and Forks In very large quantities,
and for purchasing entirely for cash,
enable US to sell these important
articles Of table service at even
lower prices than people are paying
elsewhere for inferior ones.
In patterns and designs, our
Spoons and Forks present the
latest novelties, as we'll as the
most artistic ideas.
AZ with ell our other goods, 90 in re-
gard to Forks and Spoons, we invite
examination, comparison. criticism, and
approval orrejeotion, as may seem good
to those who judge for themselves.

Placing the little hats all in a row.
Ready for church on the morrow you know:
Washing wee faces and little black fists,
Getting them ready and fit to be kissed:
Putting them into clean garments and white
That is what mothers are doing o.uight.
Spying out holes in the little worn hose.
Laying by shoes that are worn through the toes,
Looking DER garments so faded and thin
Who but mother knows where to begin:
Changing button to make look right
That is what mothers are doing tonight
Calling the little ones round the chair
Hearing them lisp forth their soft evening prayer
Telling them stories of Jesus of old.
Who loves to gather the lambs to his fold;
Watching they listen with childish delight
That is what mothers are doing tonight
Creeping SO softly to take a last peep,
After the little ones all are asleep;
Anxious to know if the children are warm,
Tucking the blankets round each little form:
kissing each little face rosy and bright
That is what mothers are doing tonight,
kneeiing down gently beside the white bed,
LOwly and meekly she bows down her head
Praying as only mother can pray
"God guide and keep them from going aStray.7

balustfades of buff Ohio sandstone, and
conspicuous in the ornaments are two fine
