ILLINOIS, last year, raised more cyclones
than any other state in the union. A
map showing the locality and extent OF
all the cyclones or tOrnadoes Of 1888 has
been issued by Chicago publisher. 1t
shows that in the manufacture and i'm
portation of this superior kind of wind
the Sucker state leads the list by a big
majority. She started and took care Of
no less than fourteen, received the force
of big one from Iowa, and invented the
biggest of all-that which wiped out a
portion of Racine, Wis, and srcochetted
over the lake to the farther shore. Oak
ota had only one, moving sOutheasterly
and bending to the northward. Southern
Minnesota had two Of crescent shape,
the general direction beng eastward.
Nebraska managed to get along without
any Kansas had five and half, gcner-
ously sharing one good one with Missouri
although the latter state had four of its
own, ana big one borrowed from Iowa
expressly for the occasion. Iowa start
ed four but concluded it could get along
with less, and sent one south into Mis-
souri,, and the other east into southern
Wisconsin and northern illinois. Wiscon
sin had four of her own make and two i'm
pOrtd ones, one of the latter manufactur-
ed at Rockford, H., jumped from Racine
across Lake Michigan 20 Grand Haven
Central southern Michigan was cOntented
with one. Indiana had only one, but it
made belt from Terre Hautc east, clean
across the state The fourteen that ~
nois handled were regular old howlers,
and they conducted themselves 81 a bus
mess like manner, that reflects great credit
on the Prairie state.

New York, April ;S.-John G. Priest, Of

with him on the subject He has no ambi-
ton or aspirations for the position. He had
rather live in quiet for the remaining years
Of his life"
~Then you do not think he would acce, t

Quite on the contrary, think he would

that he would not accept the nomination.
an confident he would yield to the pressure
of the party, and for the good of the country
would accept the nomination if it was fen

DeIaware Republicans.

DOVER, Del, April 1S.-In the Republican
state convention the leaders of the delega-
lions have had frequent conferences, but
their forces are so nearly divided that they
have not been able to agree upon anything
There is practically no fight over the national
questions, and the delegations to Chicago
will almost certainly favor Blaine though
they will so unnstructed. The fight hinges
upon the question as to which faction shall
control in the state politics
Job H. jackson, prominent Blaine man,
was made temporary chairman. In calling
the convention to order, Richard Harrington
attempted TO make a speech i'll vindication
of his course as chairman of the state
central committee, and disclaimIng re-
spOnsibility for the removal of Judge
Wales. This statement was re-
ceived with q storm Of applause and Kisses,
and cries of "Put him out" The confusion
was great for time, and it looked as if
some of the delegates would come to blows
The interposition of George V. Massey
quieted the uproar When order had been
restored, Levi C. Bird offered, on behalf Of
the unpledged wing, to give each faction
half the delegates to Chicago.
No action was taken on Birds offer and q
short but hot discussion over the credentials
of the Broad Greek delegates ensued. Har
ringtOn got the floor again, but was howled
down, and a motion to refer the subject tC
the committee on credentials was passed
The temporary organization was then made
permanent. Committees on resolutions anC
credentials were appointed and the conven-
ton took a recess of half an hour

BALTIMORE, April iS-Later news from
Dorchester, Md, give an entirely new phase
to the tragedy which occurred Wednesday.
it is now conceded that Frank Shenton killed
his aged father in order to save his
mothers life. The elder Shenton had
been drinking heavily of late, and early in
the morning began abusing his wife Cor
some fancied neglect, and threw her to the
floor and began beating her in brutal man
ner. His son Frank, demonstrated with his
father for his cruelty, and this aroused all
the ferocity in the mans nature Turn
ing from the PROSTATE woman, he
seized a gun and turned upon his son, who
fled and hid behind a wood-ple Just as
Frank reached it his father fired, and the
ball passed within all inch of his head and
imbedded itself III the lumber. Without fol
lowing him further, The now frenzied mar
turned back to the house to wreal
vengeance on the wife and mother
Fearing for her life, Frank, a.
soon as his father went back int,
the house, followed, and the sight that me
his gaze as he entered the door fairly froz,
the blood in his veins. His father had hr
mother on the floor, with one hand clutcheC
in her hair and in the other he held a larg
knife, viii Oh he was brandishing aioft. Frans
seized heavy club which was resting agains
the wall and, rushing lip to his drunken
parent, dealt him terrific blow on the head
fracturing his skull and killing him in
family.
Public sympathy is with the boy, no on
believing that he intended to Kill his father
but that while lahoring under eXcitemen
and in anxiety to save his mothers life, h,
