on Coming in Contact with the Air.

WELLsvILLE, o., May 24-The old West End
graveyard, which for years has been one of
the landmarks of Wellsvile, will soon be thing
of the past The growing necessities of the
town demanded that the place be appropriated
for town purposes, and the Council has so or
dered. A large'force of men are engaged in re-
moving the bodies to their new home in Spring
Hill.
Yesterday the workmen removed small iron
coffin containing the remains of child buried
thirty,ive years ago, and which showed evil
dences OF wonderful preservation. The features
of the little one were perfect, the skin of yell
lowish color. but apparently intact The hair
was smoothly brushed back from the little head:
the tiny fingers were interlocked. and even the
finger nails We're perfect Unfortunately the
glass over the face was broken, and the moment
the sir touched the body it was transformed into
dust
Another ceffn was found to contain nothing
but heavy stone. 1t is supposed that years ago
ghouls had stolen the body

through the roof, plastering, and into the room
below. The storm from the north, and
windows facing that direction had every pane of
glass in them broken. The damage to farmers
lying in the track of the storm was very great
and cannot be estimated.
The Journals Danviie correspondent writes:
1.-THE storm began its destructive work about
one mile west of the Danville and Lebanon
road, and continued in southeasterly direction
the entire distance through the county, doing
great damage to strip of country varying from
three to five miles in width The statement is
verified by number of citizens that hail stones
two inches in diameter fell thick and fast for an
hour, forming solid mass of ice three inches
thick on the ground and drifting upon the north
sides of buildings eighteen inches deep. The
wheat crop falling within its limits is completely
destroyed down to the ground and
chopped to pieces by the hail. The corn crop is
is not so completely destroyed. Garden produce
was greatly damaged much Of it being COM
pletely destroyed Windows and window sash
on the north side of all the houses were broken
into atoms, and a number of young animals
were beaten TO death by the hailstones Some
valuable cattle are reported to have been killed
by falling timber Two houses in Avon were
completely unroofed beside several others badly
damaged by the heavy winds.
