MICHIGAN.
REPORTS from the interior of Michigan
are to the effect that terrific storm Wis
tied that state on the night of the 21st.
About four inches of rain fell between
day and day. Great damage was done
by both wind and water. Washtenaw
County reports an unwelcome share of
damage. lightning struck the dwell
ing house of George Rice, of st. Johns,
demolishing the chimney and splinter
ing part of bedstead on which a little
child was sleeping, and smuggling
the bedclothes, but the child was
not hurt. Freaks of lightning are
reported from other points. w. @.
Huff's residence in Dowagiac was struck.
The fluid passed down the studding to
a bed on which Mrs. Huff was lying,
tearing the bedstead to pieces and throw
ing the lady out on to the floor, without
injuring her, however. A piece of
board was thrown with great force into
a child's cradle, just missing the infants
head. The house of Eugene Henry,
five miles southeast of Eaton rapids,
was torn to pieces. Mrs. Henry's three
children were found dead forty rods
away. The father will probably die and
the mother is seriously injured. One
child escaped uniniured. 1t is reported
that at Onondaga, seven miles distant, a
woman and two children were killed,
and many houses destroyed. A
woman named Hartly was killed two
and one-half miles west of Leslie.
A large amount of damage was done at
Grand Rapids. Ricka Decker, young
Swedish woman, was struck by light
ming on Leonard Bridge, where she had
taken refuge, and seriously, perhaps ia
tally, injured. A man and woman who
had taken refuge in an unfinished house
were considerably injured by the house
being blown down, but will survive.
Crops suffered in all directions.

THINKING Aloud in Church,

One of our churches has a somewhat

A Hungry Woman's Free Feed.

(From the Utica IN. W Observer
Among the passengers who went away
Saturday night was a woman. She was
poorly yet neatly dressed, her face wore
an expression of anxiety and care, her
thin features and shrunken hands made
her look as if she hadn't tasted morsel
of food In two months. Trouble was
plainly depicted on her countenance. 1t
took every cent she had to buy a ticket
in order to reach her destination. She
was hungry, but she had no means
wherewith to purchase food. She gave
a look into the gate tenders benevolent
face that quickly touched his sympa-
thetic heart. He OWNED her thoughts.
He went with her to the dining room,
and told one of the walters to give the
woman something to eat at his expense,
and the gate-tender returned TO his post
and punched tickets and answered ques-
tions. After his labors for the day were
over he went TO the eating-house and en-
quired the amount of his bill. The meek
response was $1.30. For a moment the
gate-tender felt weak; his legs seemed
likely to give way. At last, in husky
voice, he said: "What did that woman
eat?" The walters handed him the fol-
towing statement: Spring chicken,
strawberry shortcake, three boiled eggs,
two cups of tea, four biscuits, two
bananas. The warm-hearted gate-tender
paid the bill. For two months to come
it will be useless for hungry-looking
women to attempt to attract his atten-
tiOD

Dispatches IRON Rome, under date of
the 18th, give details OF terrible earth.
quake which in magnitude and hor-
ror echpses anything of the kind
which has been recorded in history for
centuries. The Island of Ischia, in the
Mediterranean, seven miles distant from
the shore of Puzzoli and twenty-three
miles from Naples, was shaken from it's
foundation. Vineyards, farms, mines,
baths and summer residences by the
hundreds were destroyed. About 5000
lives were lost. The loss of life is based
on the estimate of the government off
Gals, who sconsider their figure Lower
than the actual facts will probably war
rant. Many thousands of the injured
were removed to the mainland, the
government having acted promptly and
called into action every department.
The list of killed is estimated at from
5000 to 1000. Many who have seen
the destruction at Casamicciola and
other points believe the dead and in
jured will number more than two thirds
of the population. No one places
the disaster below $4,000. The
dispatch says the destruction was most
complete at Casamicciola, the famous
pleasure resort, with its hot springs and
baths, the Saratoga of Italy, situated at
the foot of Mount San Nicolo, q volcanic
mountain $500 feet in height, which has
for several centuries been regarded as
quite extinct. The shocks began at $50
o'clock at night. At that hour major
ity of the people of the upper classes
were at the theater. Nearly all the
house in the town collapsed, and it is
estimated that 8, 900 persons were killed
and 800 injured. The impression pro-
dueed by the disaster is indescribable.
The center of the area of the shock was
the same as that of two years ago, but
the radius wider. The shock was felt at
sea- and according to some accounts even
at Naples. E2E##

The "Bunko" SwindIe
[From tie New York Sum-

rom tie new York sum-
The care and skill with which the
bunko swindle is conducted is illustrat-
ed by a visitorwho says he allowed him
self to be roped in for fun. A sweat
board was introduced in the usual man
ner, and stool-pigeon lost few dollars
ION it. He asked the visitor to play for
him with his money, and the latter at
first won, but afterward lost. At length
he was told that he was, on his own ac-
count, indebted to the board to the ex-
tent of $780, 81 haven't the money
with me-" he said. 'sThen give me a
check, was the fellows suggestion: ST
suppose you have bank account. Or
won't that be convenient" It occurred
to the visitor that to sign check would
cost nothing, since he could go immedi-
ately to the bank and stop payment. a
blank check was produced, and he filled
it out. The gambler scrutinized it, and
then dried the ink with newspaper in
lieu of a regular blotter. The sto0l-pig-
con had been quiet for awhile. Now he
suddenly broke out. FsThis is a friend
of mine" he exclaimed savagely, sand
[ won't see him sWindled. He shan't let
you have his check for cent. He grab
bed the check, tore 1t into bits, and
threw them on the floor. "Come," and
he seized the visitor by the arm, "let's
get out of this den. y ssfphere was an ex-
cited protest by the other chap" says
the narrator, Shut We went out unhind-
cred, and ] parted with Dan on the cor
ner, receiving bis congratulations on
having escaped unscathed. On return
ing to the hotel / gave to the detective
an account of what had happened, ex-
planning that [ had intended to stop pay
ment on the check, but that no such
precaution was now necessary. Don't
you lose 3 minute in going to the bank,
he said, cor they'll get there with the
check before you, Tt was destroyed?
Not bit of it. a newspaper lay on the
desk, didn't it, and he put the check be-
tween it's folds, face downward, as if to
blot it. Then the stool-pigeon snatched
out, not the check Itself, but blank
one, that had been previously placed
there. This dummy was what Dan tore
up, and the real check was left safe and
sound. That's the way they prevent their
victims from stopping payments.

Gold and PAPER.
From the Hartford Courant.J

CFrom the Hartford Courant.J
The smart man takes out a twenty
dollar gold piece and asks his friends
how many new dollar bills will balance
it in the scales, and offers to treat any
one who guesses within 100 of the num-
Der. The thing was tried in Hartford,
Conn.,, insurance Office, and the range of
human judgment was never better illus
trated. One clerk thought it would take
800 bills to counterbalance theg gold coin,
another 700, and SO on until everybody
present had placed his judgment in
jeopardy. The lowest guess was $50
bills. When the guesses were all re-
corded the double eagle was placed on
the scales and new dollar bills counted
into the other side until the beam went
down with thirty-fou in the tray.

Hampton on a Scared Horse.
Wilmington IN. c. STAR


General Wade Hampton lost leg by
a mule. He is still a fine horseman.
He was marshal at Lexington, Va, on
the great occasion of last week, when a
burst Of music excited his horse greatly,
and he began to plunge, and, rearing, he
fell back on his launches. An account
in the Richmond Dispatch says: ''The
general seemed to totter and was about
to fall on the stone pavement, but ere the
cry of alarm was uttered by those who
were standing near by, the gallant
horseman had alighted on his feet un-
hurt, still holding to the rein of the
plunging animal, and though ready
hands were offered to assist him, saying
quietly, Il can manage him, the veteran
cavalrylnan, standing upon his only
good leg, vaulted into his saddle and
rode unconcernedly away
