WISE AND MAHoNE.-A reporter of the
World writing from Chicago, says that
John S. Wise said to him:
81 have afidavits showing that Malone
has ruled the State by bribery, corrup-
ton and fraud"
"What were the charges Of fraud which
you urged against him this morning."
ssHe went into my district and bought
seventeen of my delegates and hired them
to bolt the convention. That was the way
the dispute arose in the Petersburg conven-
ton. That's the kind of q man Billy Ma.
hone is. Isn't he daisy?"
"Many people, said the reporter,
Thought this afternoon that blows were
very immineut?"
"Mahone never would have dared to
strike me. 1t was battle of words, not
blows. If we had kept on a little longer
we would have won by words, but there
was no dangar of violence at any time"

The SINEws OF Wharf.-The American
Protective Tariff League is obtaining sub
scriptions to its funds from the benefciaries
of the existing high tariff, the sum called
for from each subscriber being 800. Trusts
and other such combines are contributing
most literally. The fund already raised is
considerable, and it is expected to exceed a
million dollars before the election occurs.
The ostensible purpose of the League is to
print and distribute protection literature,
but it is expected to go into practical poll
ties also. 1t will be recalled how Mr.. VIM.
R. Morrison, of Illinois, was defeated for
Congress by stealthy movement led by
Mr.. Jarrett two years ago, and how Mr..
Carlisle was similarly plotted against. The
democrats have this, of course, to expect.
1t is for them to organize also, and to cir
culate instructive low-tax literature among
the people. The truth is mighty and will
prevail, if it is given chance. Baltimore

FIELDS AND GARDENS LAID wAsTE-TREEs
UPRooTED AND HURLED A CONsID-
ERABLE DISTANCE.

On last Saturday about 2 o'clock, in the
observed to gather fast, and flying clouds
indicated a terrible commotion in the Gle
ments. The clouds began to lower, and a.
about 3 o'clock the storm struck the eartt
near the farm of Mr.. G. W. Killian. Hear
ing great noise, Mr.. Killian went to the
door, and about that time the clouds opened
and vast quantities of large hailstones were
hurled to the earth with great force. 81
dense was the fall of hail that Mr.. Killiar
could not see ten feet out into the yard
The storm lasted about ten minutes, and
when Mr.. Killian went out to investigate the
damage he fonnd everything destroyed. His
| entire wheat and hay crops were completely
demolished, and the plank fence on his fam
| was riddled as if by leaden bullets. All the
| glass on the south side of his house was
broken. Mr.. Killian estimates his loss at
between five and six hundred dollars. From
his place. the storm took northernly course
for about mile and half, completely de-
stroying everything in its path for about one
half mile in width. After travelling for
about one and half mile, the storm veered
around and took a south easternly course
for about the same distance, and expended
its force in the woods a short distance before
reaching the river.
Never in the memory of the Oldest citi-
zens, has ever such storm visited this
county as this, and the damage sustained by
the farmers is inealculable'
Large fields of corn, wheat and grass, are
laid bare, and not particle of vegetation
is left in the path of the storm. great
many fruit trees were uprooted, and what
few are left standing, had the leaves and
fruit beaten off of them, by the hail.
Through the woods path was made as if
by gigantic reaper. The gardens were
completely destroyed, and the farmers are
now blowing up and re-planting their corn
fields and gardens.
Large banks of hail were seen as late as
Sunday, and in some places wagon loads of
hail as big as hen eggs could be gathered.
Some few of the stones were measured, and
they measured one and half inches in di-
ameter.
Besides the damage done to the crops,
considerable fencing was blown away, win
dows were broken, and chickens that were
caught out from under shelter were instant
ly killed.
Among the farmers who suffered great
loss, were G. NJ. Killian, John H. Bear,
Joseph Donavan, Hudson Collier, Jacob
Miller, VIM. Britt, Joseph Good, William
Good, Benjamin Jackson, g. W. Mauzy,
Thomas Yancey, Van Collier, John Fl.
Moore, Addison Roger, Joseph Bausermau.
