Flour Mill Burned.

LITTLE FALLS. MIMI. June 2.-The
roller mill burned to-day, loss $65, 900,
insurance $47,5OO. The fire was discov-
cred in the basement about 10; o'clock
in the morning. The fire department
promptly responded to the alarm and
ten streams were soon playing on the
building. While the progress of the
flames was delayed somewhat it was ap-
parent from the start that the efforts to
save, the mill would be unavailing. The
building was completed and began run
ming in the fall of 1888 and had capa-
city Of 500 barrels daily. It was built
by a local stock company.

For Tamperine With the Mails.

OMAHA, Neb., June "A frail looking
lad, about 16 years of age, has been in
jail here several days and was to-day
taken before the United States grand
jury to answer the charge of tempering
with the mails. His name is Harry
Doxie and he has lived at Galloway, this
state, where his father and mother kept
hotel, the only other member of the
family being sister of the boy, aged
about IL. Among the boarders at the
hotel was man who had not been in the
house long before he began to show more
attention to the handsome landlady than
was proper. The husband protested but
the man continued. Finally the husband
became disgusted, and left home, going
to some point in Kansas, and about the
same time the boarder went to Laramie.
Mrs. Doxie remained in Galloway with
two children, and with her mother. In
short, time a letter arrived from
Laramie, written by the abse-t
lover to Mrs. Doxie, asking her to come
to him and bring the little girl with her.
Harry opened the letter, his suspicious
having been aroused by the post mark.
He then decided to keep it from his
mother, but it was found by his grand
mother, who upheld her daughter in her
course, and thereupon the old woman
lodged complaint against the boy,
charging him with interfering
with the mails. When brought
before the grand jury, Karry
told his story in simple way, which ex-
cited the sympathy OF the jurymen. He
said he kept the letter because he
was afraid his mother would take his sis
ter with her and he did not want the lit
tie girl to be subjected to such evil in.

The Worlds Fair Appropriation
Bill Comes up in the Illi-
nOis House.
An Amendment of $4,000 was
Declared Carried by the
Speaker.
The Members Protest, Yell Like In
dians, and Almost Mob the
Speaker.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, June 3.-An extra
ordinary scene of wild confusion. was
witnessed in the lower house of the gen.
eral assembly this afternoon, when the
Worlds Fair bill, which, as passed by
the senate, appropriated $1,0O0OO0 for
the Illinois exhibit, was acted upon.
Efforts to reduce the appropriation to
$5O0,OO0 or 100000 we're successfully
defeated, but on a motion fixing the
amount at $750,00O it was apparent the
vote would nearly be tie. Then Speaker
Crafts (dem.) voted for the amendment,
and ignoring republican member who
wished to change and vote in favor of the
bill, hurriedly announced that the vote
was closed. Then the house became bed
lam of shrieking, blaspheming and hur-
rah1ng men, while Crafts cody de-
clared that the $75O,OOO amendment
had been adopted-76 yeas to 70 nays.
In the face of q terrific
storm of protest the speaker would listen
only to motion to adjourn, and calmly
declared the motion carried. Members
we're now yelling and running about like
so many Comanches. Half dozen made
rush for the speaker to drag the "czar"
as they called him-from the chair, but
we're forcibly held back by his friends.
More than one legislator reached for his
revolver and a riot seemed inevitable.
McInerny (dem.) of Chicago at this mo-
ment jumped to the speakers stand, and,
shouting, "We'll reconsider it to-mor-
row!" finally succeeded in bringing about
truce. It is expected another out
break will take place tomorrow.

Great excitement was caused and an
immense crowd gathered around where

ground, and it took two hours hard work
to dig them out. All the six were res-

the weather was warm and fair. An
hour later, dark, stormy clouds appeared
on the northwestern horizon; driven by a
hurricane, they rushed swiftly on. Sud-
denly the wind struck the grand stand at
Latonia, in which were 5000 people, one
third of them women. Then cams the
rain-frst in streams and afterwards in
sheets. The horse sheds outside the
race track were picked mp and strewn
across the railway track 200 yards away.
The iron anatomy OF the grand stand
shivered and creaked. Binding sheets
of water, driven by a forty -mile-an-hour
hurricane, drenched everybody. The
rush to the center of the grand stand did
not help the matter. The wind toppled
the upper seats over and rolled them to-
ward the front. Then, amid the screams
of the women, wild rush was made for
the broad central stairway that leads to
the plaza in front of the stand. Brave
men rushed into the crazy crowd and
averted calamity. The crowd went
down safely to shelter under the stand.
Many women tainted. One woman
cleared the fence next to the track with a
single bound and ran across the track in
the bowling storm. Another woman is
represented to have thrown her baby
over the railing onto the grass and after
wards to have picked it up uninjured.
Half an hour later the whole crowd was
sitting on the moist benches, watching
the races. No casualties have been re-
ported.
CINCINNATI, June 3.-A Cincinnati

of rain, hail and wind this afternoon
damaged crops and fruits. Lightning
struck the public school house, but
seriously hurt no one. The wind un-
rooted the factory of the Roofing File
works. At Seymour, Ind, this after
noon a tornado tore up trees, de-
molished the main building of the ice
factory, blew away the third story of the
Shields high school building but spared
human life and limb. At August, KY,
trees were uprooted and houses unroofed.
At Falmouth, Ky., an immense barn of a
farmer named James Austin was blown
down, and Miss Mamie, his sixteen-year-
old daughter, who was in it, was killed.
