CRAWFORD.
The Town Swept by the Devastating
Cyclone.


CRAWFORD, Ten, April 19.--The
western portion of our town was visit
ed at noon today by one OF the most
disastrous cyclones known to the his
tory of our town.
The first thing observed was misty
smoke in afunnel-like shape, with the
small end projecting downward to the
ground and the large end upwards
something near quarter of a mile in
height. This was seen by several par
ties who were standing in the front of
the Methodist church. 1t came from
the southwest and passed out through
the northwestern portion of the town,
making horseshoe bend.
Very little shock was felt to the
business portion of the town, the
wind crossing the western portion
among the residences.
Houses were upset, fences blown
down and fowls OF every description
blown away, while general destruc
ton and desolation were left strewn In
the pathway OF the tornado.
No one was seriously injured, as car
yet he ascertained, but circumstance
are such that your reporter canno
learn all the particulars.
The storm began at 1920 p, M, anG
lasted but very few minutes.

WICHITA FALLS, TEX, April 49,
Your correspondent has been with the
district court through Baylor, Wilbar-
ger and Wichita, the term here closing
to-day, and opening in Archer City
next Monday, Judge Williams and
District Attorney Finley have had a
serious and trying time in some of the
counties, notably in Wilbarger, and
have acquitted themselves with most
distinguished credit. The peace of
Wilbarger has been assured, and the
majesty Of the law has been maintain
ed throughout.
Considerable business has been done
here on the civil side of the docket.
The most important criminal case,
that of J. L.. Shanklin for murder,
sent here by change of venue from
Archer, occupied three days of the
term, was ably contested and resulted
In verdict of acquittal. The state,
besides her able district attorney,
was represented by Lakewood
& Templeton Of Henrietta, and
the defense by Matlcck Of Montague,
Harold and GLASGOW OF Graham and
Bonner OF Seymour. The canvass was
closely contested and earnestly argued
and 1t is generally conceded that JUS
tice was done. Many OF your readers
will remember Shanklin, who for
merly resided in Paris, and whose
good character there, as wherever else
he has lived since, was potent factor
in his acquittal.

Some Arguments ig Favor OF Hoist
ing Little Henfy's Highways 'o|
Out ofthe Mud. N4.l

ia .-'i hi7i NAfoLzoN, Oct. 90, 1885.
Ed. Dk<oczArc NoRrHwrsr: 2f' z nn.l
Counties all around US are doing cook work
In the way Of stone roads, and none of them
need them as badly as our own muddy little
Henry. The best land that lays out doors Is
within our boundaries, and our crops are
second to none in the country. But untortu-
nately for the farmer, there is stleast half of
the time, or much less than half of the time,
when his crops are ready for market, that he
can't get into market with even an empty
wagon. There is now lying idle, in the
Treasurer's office, upwards Of $12.000 collect
ed solely for the improvement of our roads.
This would be neucleus ON which to start
McAdamizing our roads. The Railway Co.
will do as well by Henry county as they did
by Defiance, and place the crushed stone at
our door for nominal figure. In fact they
are as anxious for the improvement as we
possibly could be, and will carry the stone
at cost. The Florida bridge is now paid
for and the same levy continued would
build us roads which would enhance the val
ne of our county hundred fold, and, our
farmers would save 200 per cent. over their
share of the tax, on wagons and harness
alone, besides the terrible inconvenience.
Let us hear from the people on this subject,
and the Commissioners will of course be
ready to raise Henry county out of the mud.

What a Bee Has Learned Regarding
an Energetic Man Who Occasional
ly Visits Toledo. 5i.r s. ,,i, b. ....
DR.. WA. France, the experienced special
ist in chronic diseases, was busily engaged at
the Merchants Hotel where Bee reporter
found him dispensing valuable advice and
healing remedies to numerous patients. The
number of these patients is so rapidly in
creasing that he finds it necessary to give
two days to Toledo, and has fixed upon Sept.
25 and 26 for his next regular visit to the
same place. r'f.tre a.sI @q14.a a
DIR. Frances fast-increasing reputation, in
his istreatment of chronic diseases and all dis
eases of the eye and ear, is being well earned.
AS regards his responsibility in carrying out
faithfully what he undertakes to do, it is on
ly necessary to state few of the important
trusts which have been delegated to him by
those who know him best. He is Professor
of Gynecology, occulist and aurist of the
Druidie University, of Lewiston, Maine; a
director in the FIRST National Bank at Fosto-
ria, o.; large stockholder in the Second
National Bank at Bucyrus, and he holds one
third interest and position as director in
the Findlay Gas Light Company, which has
capital stock of $1co 900. .,.
For five years he has been practising in
Ohio, periodically travelling over the same
route through twenty five different counties.
His practice has steadily increased until il
has now undoubtedly become more extensive
than that of any other travelling physician in
the state. This rapidly increasing practice
fairly indicates the remarkable success which
he has met with in the treatment of cases.
He has had hundreds of patients in this vi
cinity who would bear testimony to his skill
if called upon, but he refrains from publish
ing their names to advertise himself, out OF
consideration for those who naturally shrink
from having themselves paraded before the
public, and thank him for his kind consider
alton. z i.Fi=tN Ha3 g gs}5lt
Through his practice he has not only gain
ed an honest competence, but has become
intimately associated with and gained the
Irlenusnlp VI soue OI Une DtSb IneH III tne
state, whom he has successfully treated. he
diagnoses all chronic complaints without
asking questions or having any previous
knowledge of the case, and carefully locates
the diseased organs much more accurately
than the patients themselves can.
The medicines which he gives are all pre-
pared by himself, from the finest drugs and
chemicals, and the remedy is prepared after
making special study and careful diagnosis
of the case. The DOCTORS wife always &C.
companies him in his travels, and she also
has made an earnest study Of the science of
medicine. His success is well deserved, and
he has many warm friends to offer him con-
gratulations.
