FARMERS LOSING HEART
TornadOes and Drought DESTROYING
Their Crops.

GALVESTON, TEXAS, June "a special
dispatch from Dallas says: "The storm of
Saturday night seems to have done its
work of devastation in narrow strips in
sections miles apart. At Cedar Hill,
south of Dallas, farmers report that the
growing crops were fattened to the
ground, fences were blown
down, and reapers and wagons
standing in the field rolled over
and over by the fury of the winds. Near
Hutchins Station the destruction is so
complete as to dishearten the people, some
OF whom came to town yesterday, having
given up farming and turned their atten-
tiOn to working as day laborers, Wheat
standing in shocks was scattered to the
winds. Water in huge streams pIowed
up the fields and cut logged ruts
stands of cotton and grain. Hail
stones of large size were banked
up IN the low places, and left traces of
the havoc they had wrought The dead
bodies of sheep, calves, rabbits, dogs and
birds are to be seen on all sides. Fifteen
miles west of Dallas great trees were torn
up and carried long distances. Orchards
branches and the young fruit was strewn
on the ground.
LYNCHBURG, Va, June 5.-The drought
In this section has resulted in incalcula-
bic damage, and information from the
Southwest represents an alarming state
of affairs. Cattle raisers are obliged to
purchase food for their stock, their pas
lures being all dried up. Crops are also
suffering greatly for want of rain.
WASHINGTON, June 5.-It is said
by the officers of the Depart
ment of Agriculture that hog
cholera has been practically eXtermi-
mated. Unsuccessful attempts have been
made for weeks past to secure virus from
infected hogs for experimental purposes.
Another post mOrtem examination of a
cow which died in the District of Column
bla has been made by the scientists
of the Agricultural Bureau. The ver-
dict is that it was we'll defined
case of pleurO pneumonia, but that it was
an original case, and not one acquired by
contagion. The doctors say that the num-
Der of cases so far discovered in this sec
ton of the country have been so few that
they have grave doubts of any of them
having been the result of cOntagiOn. They
say that there is no occasion for alarm,
and that there is less disease among cattle
now than at many times in the past, but |
that careful cooperation is needed to pre-
vent serious cOnSpOupncqS

LYNCHED BY A MOB.
Avengers of "a Murder Who Did Not

HERMAN, O., June 5.-Shortly after
midnight Whitney, the murderer of young
Burchard, was lynched. The mob num-
bered about POO. They surrounded the
jail, guards being stationed with drawn
rev0lvers to keep back the curious crowd
attracted by the noise made in beating in
the door of the Jail. The jailer refused
to surrender the keys and axes were
brought. Whitney knew the purpose of
the assault and crouched upon the floor
OF his cell, praying fervently, his voice
being audible outside. The jaier was
compelled to lead the way to Whitney's
open. a long rope brought by
the mob was put around his waist
Half fainting, the man fell on his knees
lie was taken at once into the open air,
and asked leave to pray again. This was
granted, but as he continued too long he
was Jerked to his feet, then dragged through
the town into a dense wood that covers
the bluffs. A dozen of the lynching party
warned the pOpulace not to follow, and
intimidated them by a display ofreVolvers.
IL was expected that the court would
hold special session to try the accused,
but when 1t was announced Yesterday
that the trial would 90 over to the fail
term the Indignation was general and
threats of lynching were made. The mob
was quite orderly in it's behavior. No
masks were worn and many of the lynch
ers were recognized. The last seen of
Whitney was when he was taken into the
woods by the lynchers.
When the woods were reached the pris-
Oner was handed over to a dozen
masked men. He said that his real name
was Fisher, and not Whitney, that his
parents lived in Virginia, and that he did
not know whether he had killed Burchard
or not, as he and his partner, named Col
lier, fired five shots each. He then
shook hands with part of the
mob, bidding them goodbye,
after which he was strung up to a tree.
The mob then dispersed. The Sheriff took
charge of the body this morning, and the
Coroner is holding an inquest. Whitney
was desperate of the James stripe. He
and another outlaw named Collier, after
rObbing several stores in Gasconade
