A MOST important experiment has
been made looking to the acclimatiz-
alton OF the shad in the rivers which
are in connection with the hydro
graphic basin of the Great Salt Lake.
1t is believed by Colonel Mcdonald
and the Fish Commission that all the
conditions for the reproduction Of
shad are here naturally found. The
late Commissioner, Professor Baird,
had determined to test by exhaustive
experiment the capabilities of these
waters. Accordingly 100000 shad
fry were sent to Utah and the young
fish deposited in the Jordan river.
This first attempt will be followed in
1888 and 1889. The value Of these
fish in Utah Territory can hardly be
estimated.

THE osage Indians are about the
only example now left in the United
States OF a real aristocracy. They do
not depend upon Government rations,
as do the Cheyennes and others, but
have enough. as their own undisputed
property, to make them the wealthiest
community in the country. Besides
the land OF the reservation, which be-
longs to them by title hard to assail,
they have about 100000 bearing 5
per cent. interest in the hands of the
Government. They are paid about
$4,000 year in cash. The entire
tribe numbers only 1000, so that they
are actually the richest body of people
in the country.

An Epibms Of tho Principal Events Now
Attracting Pablo Interest
Town Wrecked by a Cyclone.

Town Wrecked by a Cyclone.
MT. VERNON, Ill.-The cyclone tha
visited this city destroyed nearly thret
hundred residences and places of bust
ness, and unhoused from 1000 to SOC
persons. In the fall of walls many
people were buried under the debris
and thirty-five were killed, while twice
as many more were injured, eight OF
ten so seriously that their lives are
despaired of. Preceding the destruct-
i've wind was heavy fall Of rain for
half an hour, which drove all the in
habitants to shelter. This was followed
by slight hailstorm accompanied
with lightning, and then the furious
cloud, which formed into a funnel
shaped cyclone, struck the southwest
portion Of the city, unroofng every
thing in its path. Taking a diagonal
course through the business part OF
the city, it unroofed and dismantled
the superior court building and crushed
the Methodist and Baptist churches
into worthless masses. At one point
the destructive element jumped up
ward and missed several stores and
residences, but it soon bounced down
again, tearing down heavy brick build
ings, wrenching and tearing frame
structures out OF all semblance, and
making useless mass out OF solid
banks. The massive court house that
occupied the public square was literally
torn TO pieces. This WAS the extreme
point to the north which the storm
reached. Fifty yards south the storm
seemed to be at its height. On the
corner of Washington street and the
public square, Crows block, three
story brick building, was demolished
and, then taking fire, consumed. The
owner, being caught in the falling
walls, was cremated. Across the street
was row OF twostory frame buildings
with an occasional brick. The brick
buildings were caved in and the frame
buildings crushed out OF shape against
each other. Near the corner to the
south were lot Of frame structures
which served rs dwellings and ware
houses. They were blown down and
then burned up entirely. The storm
was over in three minutes, and the
people who we're unframed gave as
sistance to the needy. The fire COM
pany, aided by citizens who had
organized into squads, began work
putting out the fire and removing the
unfortunates. The mayor called for
assistance from neighboring towns,
which was promptly given. What was
left OF the supreme court building was
turned into morgue.
The storm does not appear to have
done any damage outside OF Mount
Vernon. Had the storm occurred an
hour earlier, the loss Of life would have
been frightful, as the churches which
were destroyed were crowded at that
time.
Gov. Oglesby has issued a procla-
nation calling for money and supplies
for the sufferers.
