Their Assistance Not Needed at Louisville
The Calamity Met With Admirable
Courage.

LOUISVILLE, KY, March 31.-Miss
Clara Barton, president of the American
National Association of the Red Cross,
with DR.. J. B. Hubbell, general field
agent of the association, and J. H. More
land, foreman of their work at Johns
town, arrived here last night Miss
Barton says in an interview: 81 find
there will be no need of our assistance
here The first news had placed the loss
of life so high and the report that Bowl
ing Green was entirely swept away in
dicated such terrible distress that we left
work already before us to come. l find
that the calamity in Louisville has been
met with admirable courage and good
sense. In large experience l have never
feen disaster so efficiently handled and
have never known
Efforts Better Directed.
When see how carefully everything has
been done, / am quite ready to believe
your authorities when they tell me you
do not now need assistance and that
they are almost certain they will be able
to take care of your wounded. If by
any chance there should be need of our
aid it will not be withheld. l feel con.
fident from what l have seen that the
citizens, with their brave self-reliance,
will care for the suffering"
Miss Barton will look over the field
from this point for time and then ex-
tend it in the direction most needed. Her
assistants are now located within call
through sections where danger and suf-
fering is threatened.

DEATHS WHIRLWIND.
Louisville Almost Destroyed.
A SQUARE MILE LAID IN RUINS
Startling Loss Of Life.

LOUISVILLE, KY, March 20-Between
8 and o'clock last evening tornado
struck this city from the southwest.
leaving death and destruction every
where. Outside of the clearly defined
limits the citizens knew only of heavy
rain accompanied by high wind. Soon
came the alarm of fire from dozen
different stations, and the horrors ofthe
calamity began to dawn upon the peo-
pie. Great stone warehouses, halls of
amusement, railroad stations and dwell
ing houses all went down.
The storm soon passed on, the clouds
scattered, and the moon cast its light
over a sorely stricken city. Relief par
ties were soon organized; the whole force
of the fire department was at work. At
this writing no definite statement can
be made of the loss of life, but it is
large 1t is impossible that so wide a
sweep of territory covered with ruined
homes with wreck of halls and build
ings of every character, does not con-
tain many dead. Enough is known to
show that Louisville has been visited
by a most appalling calamity.
The wrecked portion of the city lies
between Eighteenth, Broadway. Seventh
and Main streets, the destroying ele-
ments passing diagonally across the sec
ton, which is probably a mile square,
At least two hundred houses are in
ruins. 1t is feared that at least two
hundred lives are lost.
Probably the greatest loss of life oc-
cured at Falls City Hall, which was in
the center of the storm. In the lower
rooms of the hall were 50Or IS children,
with their mothers and other relatives,
taking dancing lessons.
There were at least 125 persons on the
lower floor and IS more attending a
lodge meeting on the upper floor when
the terrible wind swooped down upon
the building. The entire structure in
less than five minutes was Shapeless
mass of brick and mortar, burying 200
helpless victims, of which number few
escaped uninjured. Conservative esti-
mates place the loss of life at this point
at 100, while other reports indicate the
number to be nearer 200.
At 3 o'clock this morning 30 dead
bodies dad been taken from this ruin
and fifteen wounded and dying. Only
those on the third floor had been reach
ed, the room containing the dancing
school pupils and visitors not yet being

defaulter to large amount. There seems
to be flood Of Democratic defalcations
of late. With the State Treasurers of
Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi and

faulters, it is no wonder that many de-
cent Democrats in the regions where
their party is supreme are becoming
disgusted with the conduct of their

THE Farmers Alliance of Kansas, de-
mands that United States Senators shall
be elected directly by the people
Whether that would improve the char

to debate. Legislatures are elected by
the people,and Judging from the charaa-
ter of such "Jack the Ripper" bodies as
the present Legislature, the "O'Con-
nor Legislature" and other such bodies
that have disgraced States, and all al
legged to have been chosen directly by
the people, it is scarcely likely that 1.-The

THE LUNCH

This Is an institution of great and
growing favor. We can hardly
pick up a paper that has not n glow
ing advertisement of a mouth water
ing free lunch. An eastern paper
before us has column of e-print
cards, each setting forth the unct.
uous beauties of some particularly
inviting lunch. At one Is offered
Frankfort sausage and potato salad
at another chicken corn soup; u
third offers delicious vegetable
soup; sour krout, tripe and oyster
lunch; clam soup, IA thousand miles
from any clam bank1 mock-,urtle,
roast beef; ham and country saus-
ages, etc., etc. Sour krout, potatoes
and pork seems to he the most popu-
lar combination, rs this appeals not
only to Americans, but Germans
aud Irish. 1t might he called the
gustatory tn .logy that catches them
all.
The pious or over-moral may not
consider this worthy of editorial
notice. But it contains important
food for thought as well as working
mems stomachs. We do not pre-
sumo that no coupon-clippers or
Fifth avenue style people take in the
free lunch, but the laboring masses
in our large cities are particularly
enticed by these steanlingdishes and
the big schooner attachment.
The increasing popularity of the
free lunch is a good sign In one way,
as it lisa great improvement upon the
strictly American custom of step
ping up to bar and gulping down
several treats around Of liquor. 1t
means more moderation in drinking
customs, and less intoXicatiOn re-
suits from liquor taken with food.
Also the lighter drinks. as beer and
wine, alone are consumed with
lunches. The bad side of the subject
is that it tends to popularize drink
ing and the moderate Use OF liquors.
1t increases the sale and profits Of
the liquor traffic and tends to multi
ply its political influence. 1t forces
society to recognize the necessity of
coping with the evils of the traffic.
The home must guard itself with
better culinary attractions. The
church must better develop its social
influences. For free lunches are be-
coming great institution in the
land.
