TIE cyclone of the west each year grows into greater proportions of terrorism, as viii lages and cities are building up on the broad level expanses of country, so often swept by these agents of destruction. One last Thurs day evening included a large section of the city of Louisville, Ky., in it's range. The ef- feet was terrible. Buildings were destroyed utterly, others unroofed. The first reports exaggerated the affair greatly. The loss of life and property is but tenth of what was first published, but the record is horrible as it is. 100 persons were killed, more than as many more very seriously injured, and over 1000 in all maimed in some degree. The city rises to the occasion, organ zes it's own relief company, supplying funds from it's own treasury, gratefully, but firmly, declining profered outside help. Numerous small viii lages lying wholly or partially in the tract of the hurricane also suffered in life and proper ty. It swept over upper Texas, Missouri,
 Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, southern Illinois and Indiana, and portions of Kentucky and Tennessee.

AN ANGRY SWAIN
And the Odd Figure lie Cat In Com
mon Pleas Court.
A Man Who Writes Judges Pointed Lot
tera TO stop Their Monkey business and
Hear His oaae---Hia Indiaoretion.

The hastardy case OF Emma Wise
against Barney Anderson was decided In
Just ton minutes after the Jury retired 20
their room yesterday afternoon. The
Court told Barney that he would aaaeas
him $500 for his misconduct, 500 OF which
must be paid within tendaya, $500 within
three months, and 5000 more within sl1
months from date. Aa Barney Ia man
owning nothing except tho clothes no
wears, II will neceaaltate his confinement
In the county jail for three months more,
tho provision OF the statute for any of
fenae Of this kind.
When Barney was taken back to the
jail he almost raised the roof by his abuse
OF the Court, tho Jury and everyone con-
neoted with the case. He has already
been confined In Jail for seven months
awaiting his trial. Several weeks ago he
grew somewhat weary OF his incarceration
and wrote u note 10 Judge Pease, telling
him that he was getting tired Of this
monkey business, aud wanted his liberty,
or else his trial at once. lle also wrote
note 10 his attorneys, telling them that he
was an American citizen aud was Inno-
cont OF the charge preferred by his "old
love, Emma,h and wanted thom 10 get
him out OF there, He told them that ho
would pay them aeyenty.flye centa then
and the balance when ho got out Of jall.
Tho result was his trial,
The case caused great interest yesterday
In court, The room was filled with loung-
era, merchants, and many other yIsltora.
The regular number Of court house loaf
ora were also there, Whom Barney ap-
poarod In court he was dressed
In q much worn suit Of clothes, and
his face, partially covered with tangled
beard, presented anything but prepoa-
aeaalng appearance. His hair looked aa
II II had never seen q comb. "A he took
his seat besides Jones q Hudson, his at
tornoya, he crossed one log over the other
thus making space between the bottom
OF his trousers and the top Of his stogie
shoes, exposing a portion OF his dirty leg.
During the trial Barney stated that tho
only indiacrotion which he was guilty OF
with this girl, was that he had gently pat
tod her.
The object Of Borroy'a former affections
sat a few feet from the accused. She Ia
probably thirty years old and flfteon years
younger than the fhithlesa Barney. She
will not weigh much over hundred
pounds while Barney would no doubt
weigh twice that amount. She was rather
atoop'ahouldored, with anything but n
form. Several Of her tocth
were missing and her face was not charm.
ing, There was scarcely a person In the
court room that led Barney OF any of
tho sby .glahcoa which Emma had cast
towards him,
