giving to the south all the material prosperity
needed for the highest civilization; and, sec
ond. the increase Of the coiored population. as
shown by the recent census, while il has been

not excessive nor such as to excite the slightest

A Washington Correspondent Sent Out to
Locate the Spot.

washington correspondents sent Out to
Locate the Spot.
Mr.. Walter Wellman. the Washington CORE
spondent of the Chicago Herald, sailed from
New York this afternoon in command of an ex-
petition sent out by the Herald to search out
the spot where Christopher Columbus first set
foot upon the soil of the new world. The party
includes Mr.. Chss. Lederer, the artist; pho
tographer, a servant and a mechanic. If sue
cessful in locating the spot, the location of
which has hitherto been a matter of great
doubt and of endless dispute between his
torians and geographers, the expedition will
there erect monument commemorative of
Columbus great achievement The expedition
will go first to Nassau. the capital of the Ba-
hama Islands, which are British dominions, and
will there charter vessel for a cruise among
the islands.
The plan is to take up first the track on
which Columbus is known to have approached
the continent. and with a translation of his
log in hand, and all the other evidence under
consideration. endeavor to fix the spot. When
the spot on which Columbus landed has been
found. men and materials must be put ashore
and monument built in honor of the dis
coyerer.
The Herald expedition goes well equipped
with the accessories of a campaign in the
tropics. Its commanding officer is a Young
man Of indomitable spirit. great experience as
newspaper worker and writer in all fields of
journalism. and the physical strength and en-
durance of an athlete.

PANIC AT A RACE TRACK.
A Cyclone Causes Terror and Destruction
the Latonia Course.

A Cyclone Causes Terror and Destruction ai
the LatOnia Course.
cyclone carried death and destruction in
Kentucky yesterday. 1t also swept Though
Cincinnati, but by the time it reached there its
fury was mostly spent The storm came on
about o'clock, after an e1quisitely fair though
warm day. 1t was preceded by rain of phe-
pomenal violence. 1t did some damage at the
First Regiment armory and with the league
ball park in the west end. At Covington, Ky,
it ragged in the northern part among the trees
and outbuildings tearing down all it touched.
At the southern extremity of the city, the Ches-
apeake and Ohio repair shops were directly in
its path. With puff Of its mighty breath the
storm tore away the iron roof and then leveled
the west wall. Joseph Watt, an employe, was
instantly killed.
From the shops the storm took an air line
to the Latonia race track. Several thousand
people were on the grounds when the storm
began. There was a rush from the grand stand,
but before the people could get away the wind
had torn the shutters and awnings from the
club house, had picked up rods of stabing and
shook them to pieces. scattering the broken
timbers through the air with frightful noises.
Next it began to toss about the seats in the
grand stand. That started stampede. 1t was
an awful scene. Men cursed and yelled; women,
white faced, shrieked their fear as they clam
bered deiiriousiy toward the earth. Scores
sprang out into the race track and through the
binding rain made for the open paddock A
dozen tainted. More were half demented. 1t
seemed an age before the wind vas gone leav-
ing behind rain the like Of which was never
seen, and in it were hundreds of dripping
women and soaked men. No one was seriously
hurt. but scores had to be taken home pros
trated. The loss to Latonia is 5000. The
loss on the hundreds of handsome toilets
utterly ruined cannot be estimated.
The property loss in the vicinity will exceed
SiO0OO. Crops are leveled everywhere. Wires
are down south and north. and the ugliest of
rnmors prevail concerning loss OF life and
property.

Ethics Of the Dunknr,ls.

The Dunkards' convention at Hagerstown,
Md, yesterday replied TO query that gold Or
naments, even gold spectacles for personal
wear were not permitted by the church. Elders
were authorized to anoint dying persons. 1t
was determined that the Bible be recognized as
the only safe guide, and that the remarks of
the annual meeting be held as advisory and not
mandatory. A paper from a western church
asking if member could not be prohibited
from selling tobacco. even to the injury of his
business in other commodities was referred
again to the standing committee. 1t was de-
cided that members of the church. while under
any charge, even though before trial. were not
allowed to partake of communion. Replying
to paper from Illinois the convention deter.
mined that there was no objection to church
member holding public office if honestly ap-
pointed.
