BURGLARS AT TURNER'S M
tramps who incline to house break
iug went into four business places at
Turner the past week. AT Corne-
lius's drug store they secured SIS
watch. AT Shank's grocery they
got four cents. AT John Wittchen's
S. disappeared, for which they
politely left a receipt. At Earle's
hardware store they got in and rum
maged about some but nothing was
taken, as such property is liable to
get them into trouble. 1t is time
they gave Turner rest.

BANGED TOGETHER. Christmas
day about noon an electric and a

State street with sufficient force TO
knock the step off the former and
the lamps out of the latter. 1t

the driver or motor man.

THE REDEEMERlS DAY.
Some Of the Signs of Peace on Earth
and Good Will to Men as shown
at Salem.
AT THE REFORM SCHOOL.

A JOURNAL reporter had the
honor to be present at u Christm A.
tree and literary Entertainment
given at the state reform school by
the officials of that institution Thurs
day evening, which reflects much
credit upon both teachers and pupils.
AS there are but fourteen boys in the
school and as the time for prepara-
ton has been limited the program
was not lengthy but was most ex-
cellently rendered.
Supt. Miles opened the exercises
Of the evening by appropriate re-
marks, followed by very pleasing
literary program in which all Of tile
pupils took part. Then came Santa
Claus who, gathered the fruit from
the Christmas tree aud scattering it
literally among the happy boys.
Considering the infancy of the
institution the entertainment was II
success. Supt. Miles is certainly
the right map in the right place
and his estimable wife IS a most
pleasing AMI entertaing lady.
The few who were honored by an
invertation greatly appreciated the
evenings entertainment,
PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
The Sabbath school of the Presby-
terian church celebrated our Christ
mas eve in grand style. A large
Christmas tree with decorations Of
evergreens made the church look
pretty. The church was so full thai
scarce was there standing room.
The superintendent J. A. Van
Eaton took charge of the meeting.
A very interesting program was
rendered. Mrs. Rockwell had
trained the primary class to perfec-
tion. A recitation by Miss Jeffries
was fine. The pastor OF the church,
DR.. Gwynne received and elegant
silver tea service, presented with a
nice speech by Mr.. Moir on behalf
of the members. Another present
was given the pastor by the Albert
family, being picture painted by
Mrs. f. T. Albert in her 74th year.
1t will decorate the parsonage and
we doubt not will be priced by DIR.
Gwyune, being presented by the
Oldest member of the church.
Many teachers received tokens of
love from their classes Mrs.
Matthews was recipient of a nice
painting in water colOrs. The
amusing way of distributing gifts
by having four little brownies"
dressed in most quaint attire was a
novelty. They gave pop corn balls
to all, and candy walking sticks to
the boys and candy ribbons to the
girls. Much credit is due those
who acted in arranging, for the
grand success. Truly the children
began their Christmas tide in the
most joyous way.
AT sUPT. KNIGHTS SCHOOL.
The pupils of the school for deaf
mutes were in the Christmas swim.
For several days the frequent visits
of Wells Fargo & Co's., delivery
wagon showed that packages were
arriving from the pupils homes. AT
p. m. Christmas evening nicely
trimmed tree in the chapel bore
upon its dropping branches the
the various gifts of this silent
family. The managers had taken
it upon themselves to see
that every child had something,
and after the tree was stripped ali
seemed satisfied. A time was spent
in sport and Comparing notes, after
which the little deaf children went
to their dormitoFies to dream out the
meaning OF "Merry Christmas"

Severe Storm In Iowa

WATERLOO, Ia, June 24-Reports have
been received here by the Illinois Central
officials of a terrible wind storm which
prevailed last night along that company's
lines from Storm Lake to Lemars, dist
ance of ffty-six miles. The towns were
considerably damaged. -Four persons were
drowned ct Cherokee and four at Correc-
uonville. The railroad depot at Calumet
was blown down and much damage TO town
property is reported. Sutherland, O'Brien
county, a small station on The North
western road five miles from Calumet, is
reported wiped out, over forty buildings
being blown down. The wires are all
down and it is impossible to obtain accurate
information except through reports trans
mitted to the railroad officials and these are
not always accessible.
Reports continue to be received confirm
atory of the disastrous storm and flood
along the Illinois Central Cherokee was
visited by another storm this morning fully
as disastrous, though not of as long Ours
ton, as last night The Illinois Central
bridge, about two hundred and fifty
feet long, across the Little Sioux
al Cherokee, went down under
the rush of the flood this after
ternoon. together with several houses in
the lower part of town. Reports Of the
drowning of four persons at Cherokee and
four at Correctionvilie are confirmed by
dispatch from Superintendent Gilleese OF
the iowa division, who is at the scene of
the disaster. Aurelia and Cherokee both
reported another storm breaking at 4:30

An African Dwarf in England.

Especial TO TIE HKRALD-Examiner Cable
LONDON, June 24.-The wonderful &C
counts given by Henry NJ. Stanley Of the
dwarf tribes he had met with in equatorial
Africa has aroused great deal Of public
curiosity. Mr.. Cross, a Liverpool natural
ist, in order to meet this demand, gave
orders to his agents to obtain at any price
the best specimen they could of this peculiar
race, which seems to supply lifelong sought
for missing link between the anthrapod
ape and man. After long and tedious
search in the depths of the DARK Continent
a remarkably made pigny was procured
from the native Tribe by (which she had
been captured. and was brought safely to
Liverpool. She is thirty-six inches in
height, of well developed body and Jet
black complexion, with a peculiarly
monkeyish expression, and nose so fiat that
the lower part of her face resembles the
muzzle of an animal. She has learned a
little English and converses freely, as far
Is her vocabulary goes, with those around
her. Another decidedly human accom- piish-
ment she has also acquired-she smokes
the best cigar with the English.

Terrors of the Johnstown Flood i'm Iowa.

CHEROKEE, Iowa, June 24.-The terrors
of the Johnstown food were in part re-
peated in this place to-day. Seventy-hve
houses were carried out of sight in Nj
agara-li1e torrent. how many lives We're
lost is yet matter of uncertainty. A ter
rifle cloudburst, thrice repeated, the wind
almost a hurricane are what consummated
the dread work. The storm, which began
last night, appears to have swept in vast
circle of Northwestern Iowa, fully one
hundred miles in diameter, with Cherokee
as a center. Up to 1890 tonight, owing
to the destruction of wires and railroads,
only the vaguest reports have reached
here from the devastated territory to the
west north and south. The damage
here, taking into account the relatively
small size of the town, is enormous Most
OF the destruction in Cherokee was
wrought by an extraordinary downpour OF
water from the sky. The food carried off,
apparently without effort, the big truss
bridge on the Illinois Central and with the
bridge went 400 feet of the trestle ap-
proach. Tonight the Little Sioux is at the
highest stage ever known The best in
formation indicates the Illinois Central
rails are under water continuously foc
many miles on the Onawa branch and
.he havoc both to roadway and bridge Is
something seldom paralieled in railroad
