Public structures in Brussels.

Brussels, not content with having
more beautiful public buildings than
any other European city save Paris, has
now determined to rival Paris itself.
King Leopold has just laid the founda-
ton of an arch of triumph one-third
larger than the celebrated one in Paris,
and it is announced that this gigantic
work will be completed by the close of
the century. Brussels already has the
most monumental court house in Eu-
rope-a magnificent pile, which cost
vast sums Of money, and which contains
some superb halls. The Paris triumphal
arch cost $4,000, 900; that of Brussels is
tocost $3,O00,00O. It will be richly Or
nate with sculptures, some of which will
be of gigantic proportions. Chicago

A Water Run Street Car.

A company of st. Louis men has just
been formed for the purpose of manu-
featuring and introducing hydraulic
street car motor. The pumps with
which the hydraulic pressure is exerted
are to be operated by electricity, and
the hydraulic engines are to be con-
nected directly to the axles of the trucks
of the car, thus obviating the heavy
gearing that's used in the electric motor.
Two tanks, each containing about one
half barrel of water, will be used on
each car. Two points of merit claimed
for the invention over the regular cleo
trio system are that it dispenses with
the use of cog gearing, which wears
rapidly and requires frequent renewals,
and that the same device can be operated
with compressed air by placing receiving
tanks for the air under the seats of the
car.-New York Journal.

Sister Rose Gertrude writes to us as
follows from Honolulu: CDR. Lutz, the
eminent dermatologist, who has studied
the disease OF leprosy in Brazil for ten
years, has already Effected some wonder
full improvements in theapatients under
his care at Kalihi, and the people do not
know how to be grateful enough 10 him
for his affectionate- care and indefatiga-
bic efforts to restore them to health.
Indeed the government has received
humefous petitions to nominate DIR.
Lutz as president of the Hawaiian board
of health, to give him the charge and
control of all the lepers or suspects, and,
although these are all tabled, it is curl
GUS to see such demonstrations in peo-
pie who, as a rule, are eminently op-
posed to treatment by foreign doctors.
DR.. Lutz is also an enthusiastic bacteri-
ologist, and it may be hoped that ere
long a prophylaxis and Therapeutics Of
leprosy may be made known to the
world by him which viii prove more
efficacious than the means hitherto en-
ployed by either scientists or soi-disant
doctors or leper curers. Pail Mall Ga

Hop Raising Is a Gamble.

"Hop raising is the height of gambling
in the agricultural line," remarked Mr..
J. D. Her, the well known brewer. 81
have seen hops sell for 8 cents pound,
and have seen them sell for $3.50 per
pound. Some hop raisers have made
$4,000 and $4,000 per acre; others have
lost about as much. 1t is about as risky
as horse racing, and hop raising hasn't
half the elements of fun that can be
found in popular sports This year hops
are bringing about So cents per pound,
and are still going up. Drought, frost
and damp weather are some of the
causes of the failure Of the crops. If
some satisfactory way could be invented
Of keeping hops from year to year the
range Of prices would not be so great,
but until this can be accomplished the
growing of hops will continue to make
some men poor, others rich."-Kansas

Taxes Coming Home.

Prices of all the necessaries and COM
forts Of life on which the customs taxes
were advanced by the Mckinley bill are
booming upward. Tinware is one Of the
essentials of housekeeping, roofing and
the preparation and preservation Of
canned provisions. 1t is going up un-
der the pressure of tax increased 1870
per cent. This extract is from Mr.
Wanamaker's advertisement in the
philadelphia papers, setting forth the
attractions of the bargain counters this
week:
Tinware is advancing in cost, and
very soon the manufacturers will have
their way and you and we will have to
pay very much more.

Killed by Llehtnln,g in an Open Field.

Killed by Lightning In an Open Field.
William S, Smith, of Ashleyville, was
killed by lightning on Prospect Hill, in
the north part of West Springfield, some
time Saturday afternoon. He left his
house early in the afternoon to mend the
fence of pasture about mile from the
house and carried an ak. He also had a
dish of salt for colt in the pasture. AS
he did not return the family became
anxious, and sent to all the neighbors to
learn if he had been seen, A party was
made up, and the roadside and the fence
lines of the pasture were searched, but
without success. Another party started,
out and the body was found between s
and 9o'clock in an open pasture adjoining
the Smith lot. A deep wound on the
head showed where the bolt of electricity
struck him, and passing down his body
burned it badly. His hat and one shoe
were torn to pieces. There was small
hole several feet deep in the ground at
his feet.-Springield Republican TO-.

The Difference.

In 1888 the Democratic party main
tanned that the tariff was too high. No
Republican disputed that proposition,
but the claim was made that the tariff
should be revised by the friends of the
protection system. Two years later the
friends Of that system did revise it, but
instead of reducing it they increased it
from an average of AZ per cent to an
average of go per cent. This increase,
be it remembered, is not so much on ar
ticles used by the rich as on the neces-
stiles of the poor. That's the Republic
an doctrine. The Democratic doctrine
taxes articles not necessary to the poor
and used by the rich as luxuries. The
Democratic idea is to relieve the neces-
stiles Of life OF light duties and put
them on articles used by the rich as
Injuries only. That is the difference
between the two political parties.

AWFUL CONFIRMATION.
Bradshaw Neb, Destroyed and Many Lives
Lost,

LINCOLN, Neb., June f. = Particulars
from the scene of the tornado in Bradshaw,
York county, have brought confirmation
of the worst reports received of the de-
structiveness of the storm of Tuesday
night Bradshaw is town Of 500 people,
situated on the Nebraska trail about sixty
miles west of Lincoln. The storm struck
the town at $50 Tuesday evening, coming
from the southwest. Scarcely a mo-
ment's warning was given, the roar OF
the whirlwind being the first notice
that the terrified people had. 1t struck
the town fairly and there was not left a
single building.
Every business house was made total
wreck and the principal street was filled
with the ruins. In the extreme western
part of the village a few houses are left
with a semblance of their former appear
ance but they are without windows or
doors and their contents are scattered
broadcast over the prairie, The
depot building was crushed into
kindling wood and every car stand
ing there was wrecked except one that
was loaded with stock and which was
blown without leaving the track to York,
a distance of nine miles. The telegraph
lines were Frustrated and when the car ar
rived at York it was feared that some dis
aster had occurred. A messenger went up
the track and at midnight returned with
the town rung and in a short time large
numbers OF people were on their way to
give assistance. At the same time special
train left Lincoln with physicians and
other relief. 1t was found that Russian
settlement near the town was struck and
the report is that nine persons were killed
there outright. The physicians say that
in all twelve are dead, eight mortally
wounded and perhaps twenty-one hurt
more or less seriously. The killed are

CATTLE MUST MOVE.
Imperative Orders to Special Agent Par.
ker to Gust Them.

ARKANSAS CITY, Kan, June A dis
patch received here today by Colonel q.
w. Parker, special Indian agent, from the
commissioner of Indian affairs shows that
the authorities at Washington intend to
enforce the presidents proclamation in re-
lation to the herding of cattle and horses
on the Cherokee strip. The presidents or
der was issued February II last
and provides that no cattle or
other stock can be brought into
the strip after the date and as well that
those which are now there under leases
raken from the CherokeeS shall be removed
by the lst of next October Soon after the
issuance of the proclamation the range
was fired by boomers and all the grass
was consequently burned. This necessl-
tated the temporary removal of the
cattle then on the leased land 10
where feed could be obtained. As
soon as the new grass was large enough for
grazing these herds were returned and 1t
is reported that their numbers were aug
meuted considerably. This rumOr caused
Colonel Parker to order owners of herds to
remove all cattle from the outlet which
are there in violation of the present
proclamation. and he telegraphed to the
department to ascertain whether those
returned to the strip are there in violation
of the spirit of the proclamation. The
reply is as follows:

ANOTHER VISITATION.
Great Damage in Western Iowa by Terri
bic Storms.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, June Another severe
storm swept over western Iowa last night
and did great damage to the towns of
Underwood, Nicola, Persia and Weston in
POttOwamottie county. Mosquito Greek
that flows through the towns overfowed
its banks this morning and inundated all
the surrounding country and parts of the
towns.
At Underwood about thirty residences
in the lOwIands were wrecked by water
and as many families rendered homeless.
Five miles of the Milwaukee track was
washed away and all the part Of the town
traversed by the Milwaukee and Rock
Island roads is submerged under fifteen
feet of water. No lives were lost but there
were many narrow escapes in the flooded
districts
At Weston the same creek Overfiowed
and the city flooded to the depth of five
feet. Thirteen houses were wrecked and
fifty more or less damaged but there was
no loss of life At Persia the overflow
was equally as bad, water flooded the town
five feet deep and carried away the entire
contents of the Alliance lumber yard caus-
ing a loss Of $1,000. Four houses were
wrecked at this place. All trains are
stopped and the railroads sustained heavy
losses at the flooded towns.

SPECIAL CALLFoR CROSS JURORS.

PARIS, Tex, June 4.-Ihe Hon. J. E.
McCombs, special counsel for the govern
ment in the Cross murder case, today made
application for special venire of sixty
men from Fannin and Red River counties
from which to select jury to try the ac-
cused His grounds for making this ap-
pIication were that for several weeks there
have been 300 or 400 people from Kansas as
witnesses and the case had been so fully
discussed on the streets and in the news
papers that it would consume too much
time to select a jury from citizens here as
great many had disqualified themselves
by having either formed or expressed opin-
ions as to the guilt or innocence of the ac-
cused. The application was granted.
