Another Ohio Hurricane.

A most fearful storm occurred at Forest,
Ohio, last Friday night the 14th inst. 1t
came up suddenly about 10 O'Clock, the
inky black clouds being livid with a brill
liant light which made the atmosphere
bright as day. A roaring noise accompan-
led the storm. In that vicinity it swept
clean track half a mile in width and miles
in length, not striking the town to any ex-
tent. William McElree, wife and two chill
dren and mother-in-law, Mrs. Higgins, were
buried in the ruins of ii large brick house
and the first named killed. The rest were
injured, the ashamed fatally. Mrs Rufus
Lease was killed in her ouse Isaac Lam
bert. eighty years OF age, was buried under
the house and fatally injured. A. l.. Pack
ert was fatally hurt by falling timbers.
Thomas Moore was buried under the ruins
OF large frame house and badly hurt.
The Union Bethel and Methodist Protes-
tant churches were destroyed. Two brick
school houses were destroyed. Trees were
uprooted Ivy the acre, and hundreds of or
chards are completely gone.
The storm went in northeasterly d.
rection in Wyandotte county, doing great
damage also. The village OF LEVEL is re-
ported destroyed. Great damage is report
ed in Seneca county. One man says the
air was filled with balls OF fire, and he saw
a strange light. Others corroborated this
story. The light under the dark cloud
looked like that from a large gas well. A
great member OF people are without homes.
Some farms are made almost worthless.
The loss is about $3.50, 600 or $500, OOO

Condition Of tho Crops.

May 1.-THE following crop summary
was printed in this weeks issue of the
Farmers Review, OF Chicago.
The heavy rains OF the past week have
lessoned somewhat the former excellent
outlook Tor spring wheat in Nebraska,
Wisconsin, Minnesota and Dakota. The
great rainfall has also occasioned some in
Jury to the winter wheat in Winconsin,
Michigan, Ohio and Indiana, where, in
some OF the fields, it was beginning to head
out The reports do not indicate however,
any serious damage as yet. In other respects
the outlook Tor all the grains in all the
states and territories continues excellent

wheat, Or reports OF injury from insects,
with the exception OF the permanent daR-
age heretofore noted in various counties in
Kansas. are rare and isolated. The pres
ence OF the chinch bug is noted in Morrison.
vile county in Central Illinois and several
Indiana counties. In Indiana winter wheat
has attained growth of from ten to
fifteen inches, and the outlook continues
excellent. The generality OF the reports OF
MISSOURI indicate crop Of 25 per cent.
above the average. In Kansas some OF
the counties note improvement in the
winter wheat outlook within the last thirty
days. Butler is to be added to the list OF
counties where the crop is an entire failure
The reports from Michigan indicate an i'm
provement in the wheat outlook within
the past two weeks. The reports from
Ohio are generally OF promising charac-
ter. The reports from Dakota continue
favorable. Cass, one OF the principal wheat
growing counties in the Red River valley re-
ports that the outlook could not be i'm
proved. The condition OF wheat is report
ed 20 per cent. above the average. There
ports from Minnesota are uniformly good.
Hhe Nebraska counties still complain OF
too much rain, and that wheat on all low
lands is looking poorly. The general aver
age OF the crop on uplands is good.

Arrest of the Murderous Anarchise.

The following additional particulars of
the capture in Chicago OF Louis Lingg. the
young German who is supposed to have
thrown the bomb at the Haymarket are
learned: Officers Lowenstein and Schutler
went in civilians dress to Gustav Kline's
cottage on Ambrose street, one going to
the front door the other to the rear.
Schulher advanced toward the young man,
but before he had advanced half dozen
steps the latter drew a ponderous Colts
navy revolver from his breast, and cock
ing the nurderous-looking weapon, leveled
thirteen inches OF barrel at the officer IF
I have to die, you'll die, too,' he shrieked
in German, as he placed hiz finger on the
trigger and took deliberate aim at the
officer. Schutler, seeing his peril, rushed
upon his would-be murderer, and
life and death struggle ensued.
Lingg fought with the fury OF a wild
beast, and made repeated efforts to dis
charge the weapon, the barrel OF which was
held byt he officer. The men rolled over
and over, upsetting tables and chairs, and
rafting the window panes in the ROOM
While the fight was 1iercest there was a
crash at the front end OF the cottage, and
Officer Lowenstein, who had heard the
struggle within and burst open the door,
tumbled in out OF the rain, and hurried to
his comrades assistance. The appearance
OF the second officer made Lingg delirious
with rage. He shrieked and cursed in his
native tongue, and refused to relax his
grip on the revolver until Lowenstein
seized him by the throat and choked him
until his face grew purple and red The
weapon, with its cylinder filled with huge
bullets: was then taken away from him.
He was then handcuffed and taken to the
central station. On the way he said:
| wouldn't care what they did with me
ii had only killed those two officers l
tried to shoot them, and I am sorry 1
didn't succeed.

AUGUST STARTS IN HOT.
THE HIG HEST TEMPERATURE
OF THE YEAR.

Suffering humanity swelters IN the
Shade-SOms Stattstics About Last
Month, which was the Coolest Jnly In
Twelve Yesrs-Many Showery Days
but Not a Large Rainfall.
The mercury has not been so high this
summer before as it went yesterday. At
the signal office it went nearly to "a in
the shade. In June it got up TO 92.2 one
day, but 1t went two or three hair lines
better yesterday, and August started in
with high record. People at home did
not wear any more clothes than the law
requires. Church goers patronized the
shady side of the street on their way
home. On the less trequented streets per-
spring humanity swung its hat before It's
face with one hand and mopped its face
with the other. A wag solemnly de-
clared that he detected the Exchange

SEPARATION from its face with its
hands about O'Clock, when it thought
every body was at dinner and no one was
looking.
July, which is usually the hottest
month of the twelve, had no day as hot as
yesterday, according 10 the thermometer.
July's greatest temperature was only "
and the lowest was 50. The range
for the whole month was -
deg, which was less than the
range in single day on several occa-
sions last winter. The month just passed
was not hot month taken all through.
Ia fact, with the exception Of July, 1874,
there has not been July as cool in six
teen years. The mean temperature for
last month was 50 deg, and the mean tor
July, 1874, was 70. The following SHOWS

alton was located in Savannah:

1t will be seen that the maximum for
last month was lower than the maximum
for any July since 1871. In 1878 the
maximum temperature of the year was
in August, and in 1874 the maximum, IS
deg, was in June. There were eight
DAYS last month that the temperature
was above 90.
July can claim record on rainy days

withstanding the many showers the total
rainfall was not unusually large. Really
it was only normal, 1902 inches.
During June the rainfall was 1924
inches. In June there were seventeen
rainy days and in June Of 1884 there were
seventeen. The rainfall Tor both June
and July was not as much as the rainfall
for June, 1876. At Jacksonville last
month there were Ia inches and the mean

Charleston was one degree cooler than in
this city and the rainfall about the same.
