KALAMAZOO, Mich, April Traditional
particulars of the cyclone say that the devas.
tation was greater than at first supposed.
Houses were unroofed in number of places
and torn to pieces. One man had the timbers
of his barn driven through the house. In
another case the front of the house was torn
off. Isaac Simmons house was torn to
pieces and he was fatally injured by falling
timbers. A swath from twelve to forty rods
wide was moved across the north of the coun-
ty, the timber and everything being de-
stroyed.
The storm seems to have originated near
the west edge of this county. 1t moved
northeast across this into Barry and Eaton
counties. At Cressly's corners and Hickory
corners, in the former, and from Charlotte
and Kalamazoo townships in the latter, devas.
tation and death are reported.

Meeting of the Mormon Convention Yes
terday-The Sain's Exceedingly Uneasy
Pnlygamv on It's Last Legs.
SALT LAKR, April 7.-The Mormon
spring conference met yesterday. The
attendance was slim and the proceedings
lame. There is great ferment in the
Mormon mind and the church leaders
seem unable or unwilling to sanction any
rallying cry. The Mormons are heard to
regret that Brigham Young Is not alive.
They recall that he contemplated aband-
ening polygamy if the Reynolds decision
was against it, and demanded that the
present church leaders shall openly an
nounce their submission to the law, or
| their intention to continue to defy it.
Their instructions to the polygamists to
find separate honses for their plural wives
| is regarded as cowardly, and is creating
dissatisfaction among Mormon women.
The constitutional convention is ex-
pected to provide against the further ex-
tension of polYgamous marriages, but
| what the people already in polygamy are
| to do is giving the most concern.
| Some polygamists have sent away their
plural wives. Others have not and say
they will not, although greatly disturbed
as to the possible consequences. They
say they are willing to suffer political
Acknowledgement and aid IN stopping fur
ther polygamous marriages, but that they
| will not abandon their plural families,
and they fear prosecution if they do not.
The women have suddenly acquired
greatly increased importance. Polygam-
lists will probably not endeavor to be
qualified for voting by the election COM
mission. They expect to be able to elect
homogeneous Mormons to all offices. New
theless there is great rush for naturali-
cation papers. There would be but little
disposition among the gentiles to dis
turb the existing polygamous relations,
| if the church would stop the practic
where it is, but they show no disposition
| to do that of these who have the DISPOSE
tiOn lack the courage to act.

NOR CHFiELD.

MORTIFIED, April Now is a good
time for the farmers-of this section at
any rate-to turn their right cheek also
to the wheat robbers combination, or
rise in their might, exercise their right
of power, and strike blow to these I'M
blushing rascals, who would take the
last kernel of wheat out of the mouth of
the inexperienced in the tricks of trade.
1t will be remembered by readers of the
GLOBE the course taken by the papers of
this city IN regard to the chinch bug.
Knowing that the ground was full of the
insect, the Journal declared most en-
phatically that there was scarcely any,"
Of course this suited the wheat buyers
Now, your correspondent did not
90 to this public enemy of the
people, but has talked with
men who do know and examined
for himself, and knows that the chinch
bugs inhabit our wheat fields now, and
they are alive and active, too. Now we
know the Journal will say there is no use
of hallooing before you're hurt; that
there is not chinch enough to do any
hurt, ignorant of the fact that now is the
most dangerous time to have them, and
will do the most hurt, breed, hatchout
and take the crop in its infancy. Then
let the farmers inform themselves of this
fact, and SOW wheat accordingly. The
destiny of wheat growing Is in the hands
of the farmer, and by raising less wheat
and more of something else he will bring
them to their milk.

GOOD he WS.

The House Committee ecommends
$4,000 for the West st. Paul Levee.
1t will be remembered that Capt.
James Starkey went to Washington in
February as representative Of the Sixth
ward, to endavor to secure congressional
aid for improving the river and building
a levee on the west side. AS matter Of
course, the Minneapolis paper which
does its mechanical work IN st. Paul,
abused him, claiming he was attending
to other matters and endeavoring
to throw cold water on the
whole project. Capt. Starkey's
labors, however, are bearing good fruit,
and the following kilograms which he re-
ceipted yesterday shows that the house
committee on commerce has taken favor
able action in the matter:
Capt. James Starkey:
The committee have agreed to an expendi.
ture of fifteen thousand dollars for the i'm
provement of the river at st. Paul.
H. B. STRAIT.
This is a good beginning and the Sixth
ward is to be congratulated.
