His charred body was discovered yesterday
morning.
Passing off from the court house square to
the northwest, the tornado cut away everything
before it. The school house, an immense 9
brick structure, is nothing but q heap Of bricks
and mortar. The electric light building was
torn to pieces. and every piece blown away,
and many pieces of heavy machinery have
been missing since the blow. The roof was
taken off the Peoples Mill, but it sustained no
other damage.
In this section. however tho heavy loss OF
ife occurred. One hundred and fifty dwellings
were broken to atoms Oh thrown to the ground
in piles, and many occupants were caueht be-
meath the falling tilnbers and crushed to death,
while many others were injured. Looking
down East Main street us far us the eye can see
there is nothing visible except the ruins OF
homes, though to the right of the street the
houses which were in the direct pnth of the
storm remained comparatively unin ured, and
those which should have been sheltered by
them we're wrecked Stretching over the vast
area there is nothing to be seen but here and

The sums spent for these drinks, il We
could get at the statistics, would be moro
startling still.
Oh, if we could only get that bill passed
by Congress to have q commission ap-
pointed to gather official statistics on the
liquor question. What sensation their
report would create!
The amounts received from liquor Ii
censes in 1887 in Chicago were:
From saloon licenses 97a.osl u
Wholesale liquor licenses. 81. %
Total 50, OPS, 2lo. .6
This revenue feature Of our high Ii
cense law is one most loudly praised by the
advocates of high license here, but in fact
it is the most Objectionable feature of the
law. 1t operates as bride upon tho
voters. 1t deadens the conscience of many
a taxpayer, so that he is willing to vote for
q continuation of what otherwise he would
not tolerate. The Chicago Tribune, the
special champion of high license here, in
its issue of to-day says editerially:
High license reasonably and properly
enforced is the only barrier against prohi-.
bition in the present temper Of the people
in almost every State of the Union"
Again, in an editorial in its issue of jan
uary 5, in reference to speech of DIR.
Funk against high license, it said:
Had Iowa adopted high license law
ten years ago prohibition would never have
obtained in that State. Is there not a
warning in the language of DIR. Funk for
the cautious element among liquor dealers?
Do they not see that by opposing high Ii
cense they are playing into the hands Of the
Prohibitionists?"
hope the good temperance people of
New York will not have to go through our
sad experience to find out that high license
is not step towards prohibition, but is,
as the Tribune says, "the only barrier
against prohibition in the present temper
of the people"

Rheumatism is undoubtedly caused by
lactid acid in the blood. This acid at
tacks the fibrous tissues, and causes the
pains and aches in the back, shoulders,
knees, ankles, hips, and wrists. Thous-

actions, neutralizes the acidity of the
