DAKoTA's HOT WIND.
Terrified Residents Who Thought Judg'
msnt Day Had Arrived.

Terrified Residents Who Thought Judg-
msnt Day Had Arrived.
ST.. PAUL, Mimi, July S.-People IN
Dakota thought the world was coming to
an end day before yesterday. Birds,
horses and cattle apparently became crazy
with fright, anticipating some catastrophe
At four o'clock in the morning people were
awakened by roaring aS hot rs if from q
furnace, Fearing cyclone they took
refuge in cellars. The hot wind lasted an
hour. The temperature was 12O degrees.
At midnight it had been 100 degrees.
People feared death from the hot air, and
had it lasted much longer the fear would
doubtless have been realized. Fortunately
il soon abated and comparative comfort
was found in temperature Of about 100
degrees which had prevailed for several
previously. During this terrible night
there were strange barometic disturbances
throughout that region. Passengers who
came through on Northern Pacific trains
say that It was like passing through a
furnace. Trainmen had their faces and
hands blistered by the heat. Grass and
other crops are greatly damaged.

the rates of the various educational jour
nails.
Prof. A. Wade, of MOnOngalia county,
followed with lecture on Color Teach
ing'' in the Public Rchools, showing thai
many accidents had been the result o.
color blindness, and that blindness is not
deficiency of the optics but lack q
education upon that point
Prgf A. Purinton, of Parkersburg, fol-
lowed with an excellent DISCOURSE upon the
effects of ''Pernicious Literature, stating
that il must have one of these three effects:
|. Effects the mind. 2 Vitiates the liter
ary taste. 8. 1t furnishes youth with inn
proper companionship. There are thousands
of other evils. l. Curses church. Pul-
pit. 3. Home. 4. Teacher. A bad book
should be supplanted by q good one. The
teacher should be guide in this matter.
Prot. Cox took the ground that novel read
inc was hurtful in so much that 1t would
corrupt the reading powers, stating that
WHY should one read imaginary battles and
ficticious events when history furnishes
such an abundance of real battles and
the lives of our fellOwmen and our great
men, are as interesting rs the ideal life OF
creation of imagination.
Mai. Lee expressed his opinions in favor
! of such reading, that is, certain degree OF
it, it being necessary to ones education to
read novels, citing Thackeray, Dickens,
and other noveliSts of high order. A
vast deal of interest was manifested by
each teacher upon this subject, but the
time was limited.
Mrs. J. Johnson, President of the West
Virginia WOmen's Christian Temperance
Union, spoke on the adviSability of our
State legislature enacting law, that the

tition to that effect for the signatures OF
the teachers, which will be sent to the Leg

The Brutal Attack of Ross Upon His Ad-

The Brutal Attack of Ross Upon HIS Al
yersary In a Sword Contest.
WASHINGTON, July 5.-DuncanC Ross,
ex-wrestler, was arrested here to-day for
brutally assaulting Sergeant Walsh, his
competitor in mounted sword contest ex-
hibition. The contest was q very tame one.
Walsh appeared to be the better swOrdsman
and had the sympathy of the audience.
Every point he made was loudly cheered,
while the scores made by Ross were unnO-
ticed. This seemed to anger Ross, and
when the contestants We're ordered
to retire after the ninth round,
instead of doing SO, Ross rushed
at his adversary savagely cutting at him
right and left with his sword. The force
of his attack was such that Walsh's horse
was thrown down and fell on top of his
rider, who was knocked senseless by the
bows from his assailant's sword.
The audience called on the police
and several officers rushed out and pulled
him from his horse and took him to the
police station where he was afterwards re-
leased on bail. Walsh was carried to his
dressing room and restored to conscious
ness, when it was found that he was not
seriously injured

COAL SYNDICATE FORMED.
A Combination That Includes Nearly A
the Southern Illinois Mines.

A Combination That Includes Nearly All
the Southern Illinois Mines.
ST. LOUIS, July S.-The second attempt
to form u coal syndicate in st. Louis, em-
bracing the mining interest in Southern
Illinois within a..radius Of fifty miles, have
proven successful, and articles Of incorpo-
ration of the new organization have been
forwarded TO the Secretary of State OF Ill
inois. The incOrpOrators are +. J. Gram
dali, A. F. DOnk and Edward Dewey, and
the capital stock is placed at s., OOO, 600,
said to be held principally by st. Louis
men, who are in the syndicate. The new
combination takes in all the mines in
Southern Illinois with the exception, per-
haps, of half dozen.
The object of the corporation is self-pro-
lection, the independent operation of the
interests in the past have proved unsatis-
factory, and often incurring loss, for the
reason that one company, with certain fixed
charges, could not operate to its full capac-
ity, for by so doing it would cut into the
business of a competitor and thus endan-
ger the maintenance of peaceful relations.
Several remedies were resOrted TO without
result, and finally the syndicate plan was
decided upon, and after two attempts has
at last been completed.

The Advantages Of Natural Gas.

natural gas in the manufactures Of this
city has done away with the consumption
of ls9. 900 bushels Of coal day. In go

by manufacturers, the whole amount Of
coal displaced would run up TO ~, ,450, ,00O
bushels. Calculating 100 bushels 70 be an
average days output for coal miner, il

coal, but altogether the use Of natural "a
