We have been getting today the frag-

that passed over the city last night
and threatened us with destruction.
It is apparent that a cyclone has
been scattered before reaching the
earth as the wind which has been
blowing through our whiskers at the rate
of fifty miles an hour today at intervals,
if coming in one solid blast would surely
have annihilated us. Great trees in
Court House and Spencer squares and all
over the city have been blown down.
buildings shaken, windows broken
and various damages done. The
tin roof on McCabe's building was ripped
up like so much pastebosrd, and but for
the heroic work of James Thompson in
binding it down, it would no doubt have
done great harm. for ii threatened to fall
into the street.
The river has been worse than s9ually.
1t has been on perfect rampage all day.
The packet Mary Morton, the Verne

on the high seas. The excursion to White
Sulphur was necessarily abandoned. A
barge belonging to tue G. j. Caffrey got
away below the city. and was blown up
stream four blocks and across to the Iowa
shore. and the wind was so high the CAT
frey did not care to go after it.
The Indications are that there are to bt
more st orms before an entire cessation.

ROOTED TO THE SPOT.
, Cruel Practical Joke Played on an Un-
 suspecting Clergyman.

heard a story the other day, says & rriter in Brooklyn Life, about the farmer assistant rector of one of the loryest Episcopal churches in the city. The gentleman in question is now the nresident of a college so far away that be can not mind if l relate the incident.
 He was a jolly good fellow when he lived in a boarding house here, and in bis off hours was accustomed to join in urith the other good fellows of the house ot a friendly game of whist or a smoke.
 One evening when he was out at ser vice two of the wags of the establishment remembered that it was his invariable habit upon returning home to doff his ronndabout vest and clerical coat, put m an old smoking jacket and encase his feet in pair of morocco slippers, which latter always occupied the same position nm his bedroom floor, preparatory to his coming. Accordingly, they firmly nailed these slippers to the floor and awaited results in the next room.
 Presently the dominic returned. They beaId him moving around; they heard fine thud of his shoes as they were taken off and thrown down, and then all was silence. They peeked cautiously in, and there bcheld the young clergyman stand ing in his slippers, his face white as a sheet. and look of horror upon it, his eyes staring straight ahead. The sight was too much for them, but they man. aged to suppress their laughter and ask in tone of amazement what the matter was
 Matter :" he gasped, "there is matter enough, boys; Pm paralyzed, and can't move hand or foot. For mercy's sake, help me-"
 The man did actually, such is the force of imagination, believe he was paralyzed for moment or two, but he finally set em up, in a manner appropriate to his calling, by buying cigars for the crowd.

TWO FAMOUS PAINTINGS,
Beautifully Surrounded, Attract.
ing Public Attention at Gustave
Reinemanu'S

Gustave Heinemann yesterday after
noon gave the press of the city the first
opportunity to view the two paintings
which he has just received from Paris,
and which are from the atelier of Gus
tave Wertheimer. At o'clock some
fifteen representatives of the press
gathered i'll the art gallery in the rear
of Mr.. Heinemann's building at Sew
enth and Jackson, and which was espe-
cially constructed for these paintings.
The decorations of the room are superb,
the drapery and combinations being the
work of George P. Goggin. The light
ing is by incandescent lamps, twenty
four being used for each painting with
powerful effect.
The two paintings exhibited were
1.-The Lions Bride" of the Paris salon
of 1881, and ''The Revenge of the Flow
ers.'' lust completed and now first pub
liclv exhibited. Both are by GuStave
Wertheimer. and are in the custody of
MIR. Heinemann. They are in bond,
the duty upon them beng so great that
unless they are sold in this country the
tax will not be paid. THE Lions
Bride" is valued at $4,000. and The
Revenge of the Flowers" at $4,000.
Mr.. Mackay. the American millionaire,
offered Wertheimer $4,000 for 'sThe
Lions Bride" in 1888, but the artist
would not part with it at that time. The

Saint Paul and minneapolis De-
mand Headquarters Here, Not
RranohaS

In January, 1889, the Plymouth Cloth
ing House was so sure that their bust
ness methods gave them an advantage
of at least or 7 per cent over branch
clothing stores operated by distant cloth
iers, that they publicly announced, with
all due respect to the capital and per-
sons involved, that the branch clothing
stores must CO."
The U. L, K. clothing store promptly
acted on this suggestion, and now, after
trying it year longer, this week also
sees the departure of the "biggest" of
the branch stores, probably the strong
est and ablest of the branch-store cloth
iers in the country. This store had.
moreover, special advantage in having
bought out the oldest established cloth
ing business in Minneapolis; but the
laws of business competition were mex
orable, and the prOprietOrs ackn0wl-
edged the fact by stating in last Sun
days Tribune that lit had become
matter of necessity to close the Mime
apolis store on account of the great dis
lance from their headquarters in Bos-
ton"
ProprietOrs of the remaining branch
stores may profit by their experience.
You must establish your headquarters
here, gentlemen. You cannot do bust
ness at arms length in competition with
that typical Minnesota institution, the
Plymouth Clothing House.
