A Cyclone in Kansas With the Usual
Results,


The winS storm which had been raging
over Kansas for the past three days ana
nights culfflisited In disastrous cyclone IN
the eastern part Of Stafford county the

sparsely settled Had il been otherwise
the loss Of life and property would have
been something terrible. AS IL Is, there IL
scarcely vi tags of farm improvement re
naming. Houses and barns were demos-
ished trees torn up by the roots and In
many places the growing crops literally
blown out of the ground.
The air became III ed with dust and SAND,
which at times would obscure the sun.
Late in the afternoon the SKY became thick
with black clouds, and the deep toned
thunder and frightful flashes OF lightning
indicated the appearance Of some kind OF
storm of unusual severn y. AT times the
wind would hull as if TO gain strength and
then break forth with renewed fury.
Men and women who Witnessed the on
coming tornado were yled by its
awfu terrors, while horses and cattle plte
ously neighed and lowed "a they seemed 20
fully realize their impending doom. This
was in the gathering shades Of night, but
the moon snone through the riffs in the
clouds and added wierd scene 10 the ap-

An Economic Problem.

Prof. Willis, assistant secrctar y Of agri-
culture, recently received "A letter from Ire
land, which he thinks may oher solution
of the economic problem. What shall take
the place of wheat on farms, where IL can
no longer be raised at profit. The
writer who has been familiar with fax
growing and linen manufacturing since
$50, says in his interesting communl ca
ton "Ihere are only two establishments
weaving-one at Wassar, Miss, and the
other at Appleton, Wis, the latter doing
but little and neither weaving anything
finer than crash. There is nothing in the
climate or soil, yet the assertion is
IN de that Just as good flax and
linen may be produced in every state in the
American union as in any country. Ger
many now spins and weaves the finest
Linen and has no essentially differing eli
mate from America. Many things become
successful in America from the facility
with which the people take up and adopt
improved processes and appliances, aud
this may be the salvation OF the linen in
dustry, OF the Importance of which there is
no IN estion. There is every reason why
the American farmers should produce "A
million acres of fax for both seed and fiber,
over and above what Is now produced,
which would give 100000 10 $1,000, 900
bushels of seed worth as many millions of
dollars, and two iIlion and "A half tons of
flax straw worth 0,u0O,OJ0 and from
which d0l,0)0 tons of fix fiber would be
Detained worth 100000. Once establish
ed, American nyenton would, as in all
other industries, soon build up an industry
TO consume this raw material.
Prof. Willis has informed the sender
that the subject of his letter would be
earnestly considered by the department,
which would lend its aid 10 any effort
TO increase or diversity agricul-
tural industries Of the country.

what He Thinks or sffe beyond the

New York, Dec. l2.-Colonei Robert

liberal statement: eff we admit the
existence of God of infinitewisdom and
compassion, we must say tina: there must
be world better than this;but how do we
account for one worse than that--that is
to say, this? Ii injustice triumphs here,
~hy not there! If honesty goes without
bread 10 this world, why not in another!
Certainly God will be no hetter than
now. Still. it may be possible that
God OF Infinite love aud compzssson will
reward those who suffer, Love and hope
are universal. As long as men hope
there will probably be in the heart
and brain. asplendid dream of immoT-
tality. 1t may be that we live no more.
that we go back to unconscious dust, and
yet the heart, will always say Perhaps
there is another Iife.' But whether there
is not, let US all paint on the canvas OF
the future picture that delights and
satisfies the soul. We know that in this
world after joy comes grief, as after day
comes night, aud it may be that there is
some world where after grief comes joy,
as after night comes day."

Memorable Day In New Orleans.
NEW ORLEANS, Dec. l2.-The funeral
OF Jefferson Davis, which took place in
Metairie Cemetery, where the body is
temporarily in the tomb of the Army of
Northern Virginia, was one of the most
imposing aud most memorable, in may
respects, that has ever been witnessed in
the South. 1t recalled to the minds OF
many Of the older people who were pres
ent the grand outpouriog of the Southern
people and universal sorrow and affection
displayed on that other notable occasion,
more than thirty-fve years ago, when
all that was mortal of another greatly be.
loved Southern leader, John &. Calhoun,
was consigned to the grave.
Leaving aside all criticism of Jefferson
Davis. either personal or political, his
burial yesterday marks 10 the history of
the country the fnal close, in historical
point of view. Of the last chapter of
that tumuituous revolution with which
Davis name is inseparately connected.
The historians Of the future will pass
judgment and assign to the man whose
memory yesterday received such univer-
sal and spontant Gus tributes of affection
from the entire Southern people, his
proper position.
