A Mexican Water.nout.

RI PAso, TEX, June 9.-Yesterday 8
waterspout burst in the mountains about 4
league east of Lagos, Mexico, near the
dividing line between the States of Guam
guato and JaliscO. The effects were most
deplorable- Immense quantities of water
swept down the mountains with irresistible
force toward the well populated plains aud
valleys below, and left desOlation and ruin
In their wake. There were already one
hundred lives reported lost and it is feared
that the list may be swelled still larger
when all the details are known. 4 great
many houses were swept away. Steps have
been taken in Lagos among the wealthy
classes to aid the sufferers.

The New Missouri Prison.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, June 9.-The
prison inspectors this afternoon BY a
unanimous vote located the branchs peni-
tertiary at Cape Girardeau. The last visit
to Kansas City was made for the purpose of
obtaining information as to the cost of the
ground needed, and as this could not be
purchased for anything like the amount
named in the bill the idea Of locating it
near that city was abandoned The citi-
zens from Cape Girardeau who have been
here in the interest of their city are jubi-
liant over their victory. This gives Cape
Girardeau two State Institutions, the South
east Normal School being situated there.

4 MARROW ESCAPE.

YANKToN, OAK, June S.-A dispatch
received from the Signal Office at Wash
ington Saturday by the observer here,
gave warning that a tornado that started
in Wyoming was very liable to pass
through this section. About twelve
O'Clock storm clouds appeared in the
southeast, accompanied by constant thun-
der and lightning. The rumbling of tie
storm could be constantly heard. People
sought refuge in cellars and other under
ground excavations. The storm passed
by, however, but it was narrow escape.
Shorty after the principal storm cloud
passed it began raining and rained heav-
lily for some time.

ASYLUM BURNED.
The Insane Asylum at williamsburg. Va.
Burned.

Burned.
WILLIAMSBURG, VA, June "a fire
broke out at twelve o'clock last night in the
right wing of the center building of the
Eastern Lunatic Asylum here, and before
ii could be got under control everything
was destroyed. There were 200 female
patients in the burned building but all were
rescued except One-MiSS Smith, of Spott-
sylvania County, who was burned TO death.
Another patient Mrs. Jetfries, after being
brought out of the building, wandered away
and was found this morning drowned
In a creek near by. All the female patients
were taken to the William and Mary Col
lege, where they were temporarily cared
for. The other wards contained nearly 500
patients. These wards were quickly emp
tied and the unfOrtunates were turned
loose, but did not wander off, being gener-
ally tractabe. None of the male wards
were in danger, they being located in build
iRgs separate and disconnected from those
destroyed, and a strong wind was blowing
from them. The loss is estimated at from
S!20, 200 to $4,000: insurance about S40.-
600. The fire is believed to have resulted
from trouble with the electric light wires.
as it was first discovered where the wires
entered the right wing of the building.

CrumLiing Away.

CHICAGO, ILL, June Slough ratings
have been built around the main entrance
to the Courthouse to prevent people
from passing in and out. The tenders
are built around the space in which the
large stone fell from the upper portion Of
the building a few nights ago. 1t was
the intention of the Courthouse Com
mittee of the County Board to set to
work at once to put the cramblIng build
ing in repair; but since the defeat at the
polls of the million dollar appropriation
the commissioners declare, as they have
No money with which to do the work,
persons entering the Courthouse may do
so at their OVID risk.

Less Serious.

SAN FRANCISCO, June S.-The grass
hopper ravages in California are much less
serious than at first supposed. The dam
ages to grain by them are mostly confined
to the southern portion of the San Joaquin
valley. The latest reports from there
show that the first statements were
greatly exaggerated No correct esti-
mates can yet be made of the
damage. The young vineyards in the
neighborbood Of Sacramento have been par
tally damaged, but the bearing vines
which have escaped the pests, will not re-
main long in this stale. The trade winds
which prevail at this season do not seem 10

FUTURE PUNIsHMENTs.
The Subject at the Tabernacle Last
Night.


The religious services at the taber-
nacle continue to grow in interest. At
a very early hour last night an audi.
ence OF not less than two thousand
persons had assembled, Promptly ut
s the choir sang Rescue the Perish.
ing" Prayer was offered by Rev. Mr..
Holloway. Then followed "The Gates
Ajar" and another prayer, after which
the reviyalist announced his text AS
follows:
Ezekiel xviii, 4-The soul that Gin
meth 1t shall die.
He announced that his subject was
the doctrine OF future punishments,
an unpleasant topic, but nevertheless
true. Man in his natural state Ia q
sinner, but he IL not punished because
he is born sinner. but because he re-
jects Christ, the only Saviour. Proof:
"Whosoever believeth that Jesus Is
the Christ, hath everlasting life; he
that believeth not shall not see life,
but the wrath OF God abideth on him,
because he believeth not In the only
bego ten son of God.n He then d.
vided his text into four heads
First, death and hell the inevitable
result OF sin.
Second, this punishment is eternal
in its very nature.
Third, there is only one way OF es-
cape.
Fourth, u denial OF future punish
ment evinces bad logic, bad theology
aud bad philosophy.
Each of these propositions was sus-
tanned by profound logic and striking
sIluatiations. After the conclusion OF
the sermon the benediction was pro.
nounced, and an interesting
after-meeting was held. At the close
an invitation was extended In response
to which one professed conversion
and four backsliders were reclaimed,
making thirty-thTee converts In all
during the meeting and forty'tive re-
claimed. There were also many anx'
ious inquirers.
The services will be continued as
usual to-day.
