TERRIFIC STORM ON LAKE
MICHIGAN. THE MOST Sc
WERE FOR MANY YEARS
NARROW ESCAPE OF A MAN
AND HIS WIFE.
The storm on lake Michigan last
Saturday was of greater severity than
any for many year past. Large por-
lions of land on the lake shore, north
of Kemper Hall Seminary, were wash
ed into the lake, also to an indefinite
extent south of Kemper Hall. Mr..
0. M. Calkins, whose lake shore protec-
ton had been deemed secure against
the violence of the waves, proved in
sufficient; seventy feet of his pier,
which FOR years had withstood the
fury OF the storms, gave way and was
washed into the lake. Large encroach.
ments were made upon his grounds
The family of VIM. Palmer, who had
long occupied their dwelling on the
shore of the lake, several rods north
of the residence of Mr.. Calkins, had a
narrow escape from destruction. Mrs
Palmer was taken i'll soon after mid.
night and awakened her husband, who
arose and concluded to look at che
situation outside. He at once saw that
his house was being undermined and
on the point of falling. He immedi-
ately called upon the family on the
opposite side of the street and secured
aid to move his wife to his friend {
dwelling. Mr.. and Mrs. Palmer left
their house with only the clothing
they had Oh, and soon after the house
fell into the lake with a fearful crash
Not thing of value besides the
clothing already mentioned was saved
from the wreck. Had it not been fol
the sudden illness of Mrs. Palmer
both husband and wife in little time
would have persisted.
Kemper Hall sustained much dam.
age. Some of the water projections
have been washed away and serious
inroads made on the grounds. 1t may
be remarked that Kemper Hall and
the residences men toned are not with
in the city limits, but in the town OF

Pleasant Prairie. Governor Durkee,
who originally improved the grounds
now belonging to Kemper Hall, pro.
cured strip of land on the lake shore
belonging to Kenosha to be set off and
annexed to Pleasa Mt Prairie. Other
serious damage to property on the
lake shore in the city limits we hear
mentioned, but have no particulars.

There has been considerable pressure
brought to bear on Gov. Rusk, of this
state, to call an extra session of the
legislature this winter. 1t is crafty
ing to state that the Governor declines
to comply with the request. When
the question of biennial sessions was
submitted to the people they deliber-
ately and by large majority decided
they did not want the continuance OF
yearly sessions, but desired biennial
sessions. A minority did not wish the
change, and pointed out the rnconve-
nience that might arise by dispensing
with annual meetings Of the legisla-
ture. But there was one argument
which had more weight with the peo-
pie than all others; it was declared to
be a money-saying measure, That
was sufficient to turn the scale in
favor of biennial sessions. An extra
session costs as much as a regular
session, except it is not likely to be of
as long continuance. Biennial meet
ings of the legislature are better adapt
cd to old states, where institutions
have taken more permanent shape,
than the new states. where matters of
state are still taking form The action
of Gov. Rusk will have the approval
of the people. If there are inconve-
niences Il the present order of state
government, the majority decided to
have it So

To remove clinkers from the stow,

To remove clinkers from the stove
sprinkle common table salt on the lin
ings when the stove is cold. Use plenty
of it. Build moderate fire-wood and
coal-and in day or two the clinkers
will be gone. This is sure remedy,
and within the reach of all, and does
away with the liability of cracking the
lining by the use of hammer and chisel.
Clam shells are used only for the salt in
them.-Boston Globe.

Samuel J. Tilden, who once made a
run for the Presidency, has addressed
a letter to Speaker Carlisle in favor OF
improving our sea coast defences, and
the creation Of powerful navy. 1t is
true the United States have a vast
range of sea coast, both on the Allan
tic and the Pacific sides, but imperfect
ly provided with Notifications. We
must be allowed to say that there is a
grain of good sense but much fallacy
in the old adage, "in time of peace
prepare for war;" Fortiications brist-
ling with cannon in this age of the
world are not the best guarantees for
keeping peace with foreign powers.
Nations, in the aggregate, are not unlike
the average individual. If the indi.
vidual arms himself and assumes a
belligerent attitude, he is more likely
to provoke a quarrel than if he refrain
ed from arming himself with weapons
of attack and defence. Large prepara-
tions for war by one nation naturally
provokes corresponding action by
another. This has been the newt
able tendency in all times. The
United States need an efficient navy to
protect American rights in foreign
lands and on the sea To line our
thousands of miles of sea coast with
Notifications would benefit the specula-
tors and jobbers, but would confer no
positive safety on our national Union.
If our government treats other nations
with civihty, there is little or no dan
ger of national collisions.

The apple crop in Connecticut all
accounts agree IN representing as a
prodigious one. The people are at a
loss how to dispose of it; feeding to
cattle, especially cows, is found to be

keep the COWS from the apple orchards.
1t is stated that farmers dig holes in
the ground in their orchards in which
to hide the apples from the COWS, who

BURMAH

The war in Burmah is over. The

Only a few weeks ago Thebaw, king
of Burmah, was boastful and defiant
He declared his purpose to head his

few short weeks have elapsed, and now

certain privileges, but the British com

privileges would be an after considers

well be thankful that his life was

conspire and take his life, in order that

Canoeing as an Exercise.

Canoeing promises to be favorite
pastime this season among young men
who are fond of athletic exercise. 1t
is capital form of recreation. Pad
ding develops both sides of the body,
strengthens the chest and hardens all
the muscles. It is, too, much more
social manner of getting over the
water than rowing. You face the
prov, see the view ahead instead of
behind you, and have none of that
machine-like forward-and-back mo-
ton which rowing involves. -Philade1-
