PHILADELPHIA, May 2s.-The pro-
gramme for the entertainment of the
''first lady of the land'' to-day en-
braced some very pleasant features. S.
D. Houston, of Chestnut Hill, placed
himself and his four-in-hand coach at
her disposal. An across-cOuntry drive
to the out-of-town residence of Mr.. and
Mrs. George w. Childs at Wooten, with
a stop at Mrs. Stevens young ladies'
school and a visit and inspection of
Haverford college, ending with an in
formal lunch at WOOten, to which few
personal friends. only were invited, oc-
cupied the morning. In the afternoon
the coaching party again embarked and
were whirled through the beautiful
drives of the park and along the Wissa-
hickon back to Germantown. Mrs.
Cleveland expressed herself as having
thoroughly enjoyed her visit here dur
ing the past few days. She will prob
ably return home Wednesday morning.

QUARRELING STUDENTS.
They Make Things Howl at Des
MOines.


Special to the Globe.
DEs MONIES, To-, May 2S.-The Anti
Secret society men of the college met in
mob last night about II o'clock in front
of the society room, in Chemical and
Physical hall, determined to break up
Joint meeting of three secret societies.
There was great excitement. The Win
dowS were broken by stones thrown
from the crowd, and the cry, ''Down
with secret society men," came from
the throats of nearly hundred stu
dents. Water was shut off from
artificial fountains in the room and
chemicals were liberated in the lower
halls for the purpose of driving the
societies from the room. The "Secret'
men attempted to come out, but the
door had been tied on the outside, and
egress was made through lower win
dow. Rotten eggs followed them. One
''secret' man drew revolver and fired,
probably to the ground. The "secret"
men rallied around the door; one ran
out with club, another with a revolver
and threatened to shoot. The yell of
''stone him" sent him back. The "anti''
men were all masked, and after the
meeting was broken up they retired.
The complaint is that these secret socie-
ties plot against poor students, who en-
deavor to get along principally by mind
ing their own business, and that the
faculty sustains them in their persecu-

PHILADELPHIA. May 29.-Dr. William
E. Moore, the permanent clerk, con-
Quoted the devotional exercises at the
opening of the Presbyterian general
assembly this morning, after which the
assembly was called to order by the
vice moderator, Gov. Beaver. The
stated clerk read telegram FROM the
general assembly of the United PreSby-
terian church in Cedar. Rapids, convey
ing the fraternal greetings of that body.
Rev. DR.. Vanderlippe offered resOlu-
ton of request to the board of publica-
ton to publish German translation OF
the revised book of discipline. 1t was
referred to the board with power to act
and with the approval of the assembly.
The report of the committee on publ
cation and Sabbath school work,
presented by Rev. DR.. futile, stated that
to the work of the editorial department
were added during the year twenty
three new bound volumes and eleven
tracts. The business methods OF the
board deserve the most emphatic i'll
dorSement of the committee.
ROv. DR.. Z. +. Craben, the secretary
of the board, made an address. He said
that from the business department had
been issued Az, ,0G0 tracts and 1S,000,0OO

ship were visited by one of the most dis
astrous hailstorms ever known in this
part of the country. The fall of hail
was terrific and the rain descended in
torrents. The hailstones varied from
the size of hazel nut to that of hens
egg and were piled and drifted in many
places from two to four feet deep. This
morning Robert McNutt, of South Des
Moines, found the hail so deep in his
yard that when he ran comm0n-sized
shovel straight down into it less than
six inches of the handle was left in
sight. In G. Vanglnkles yard in Sevas-
topol it was drifted so deep that one
could walk over an ordinary board fence
upon the drifts. South of the city the
damage to gardens, fruit trees and
vegetation generally was incalcu-
liable. j. M. Parker, who resides two
miles south of the city, describes
the storm as the worst he ever saw, and
reports that the damage was very great.
Windows were broken, vegetables
DeaIen lnt0 the ground, and fruit and
forest trees stripped of their foliage.
WatrOn's nursery was in the range of
the storm and sustained great damage.
Taylor Pierce said his garden looked as
if an infantry charge had been made
over it. Mr.. Won Ginkle's loss on brick
yard and fifteen acres of market garden,
is reported at $1,000. Mr.. Mcdonnell
says that shortly after midnight the
hail was two feet deep on the level in
Sevastopol. In front of the Eureka
coal mine dump it is piled to the depth
of fifteen feet, having washed down the
coal mine. Only two houses in Sevas-
topol were left with their windows un-
broken. In some cases, the haiIstones
fell so violently that holes exactly the
size of the hail, were cut through the
glass. The hailstorm destroyed so many
flowers in and around the city, that the
committee for Memorial day is under
the necessity of renewing its appeals to
citizens.

An American Bark Wrecked in

PORTLAND, Or, May 2S.-News has
just been received from the north of a
total loss of the American bark Julia
Foard, in Karluk bay, Alaska. The
vessel was wrecked April 25, but first
intelligence was received yesterday.
The Julia Foard was commanded bv
Capt. Trainer, and came from San
Francisco with a cargo of salmon cans
for the Karluk company. On her ar
rival anchor was dropped and prepara-
tions We're made to discharge the cargo
and land about forty Chinese passen-
gers, when a heavy storm from the
northeast came up and, and it appeared
that unless the vessel could heave off
shore and tack to get off the dangerous
rocks on shore, she was in imminent
danger of being wrecked. The anchor
chain was hove short and the wards
backed ready to tack, when a heavy
swell sent the Foard against the treach
erous rocks, filling her lower hold.
The storm increased, but with assist
ance from the Karluk village all hands
were rescued, numbering about forty
people, including the crew. The pas
Sengers were uninjured and saved all

Storm That SNent Il anSaS

Topeka, Kan, May 2S.-One of the
heaviest rain storms known for years,
accompanied by wind and hail, visited
this state all day yesterday and last
night. In many places hail stones of
an exceedingly large size drifted to
depth of three feet. Small grain sus-
tanned heavy damage, and in some
places was driven into the soft
ground almost out of sight.
The loss in window glass was very
heavy. In Cloud and Clay counties,
where the storm was the severest, the
damaged district is about ten miles in
width. The hail fell with great force,
tearing shingles off the roofs and cutting
cattle so that blood ran. At Stockton
the Solomon river is over one mile wide,
and it is still rising. Everything nova
BILE on the river bottom was carried
away. Two families were carried away
by the food this morning and three lit
