The City visited by a Sudden storm
Trees Uprooted.
Few people in this city noticed the
ominous black clouds which gathered in
the west at noon yesterday, and to those
who did, the suddenness with which the
storm followed was great surprise
At ~. 40 gale sprang up and sweep
ing across the city at a terrific velocity
bent trees almost double and created
little short Of a California sand storm
out Of the large quantity Of choice dust
available.
AT 12.45 the rain began and few
minutes later fell in binding sheets.
Thunder and lightning soon followed
but the electrical features were compari-
lively slight
People rushed to and fro seeking shell
ter their surprised and shame-faced
expressed at being thus taken unaware
ana their frantic fight was witnessed 10y
those who were indoors with intense
delight
The wind uprooted two trees on Kirk
wood street between Ninth and Tenth
and carried away the awning over Mar
shall's grocery store, corner of Tenth
and kirkwood
yesterday afternoon. but it was esti.
mated to be quite heavy.
BY l2O O clock the rain stopped and,
though clouds lowered about in the
northwest, citizens again appeared in
numerous numbers on the streets with a
confident feeling that the storm had
ended
AT Ninth and King a live wire fell upor
the feed wire of the railway company and
burned out the dynamos in car that
was passing. A small panic was created
among the passengers.
A large willow tree and several fruit
trees were uprooted in Farnhurst anC
wheat stacks were scattered promiscu
Ously.
A high board fence on West street be
tween Waterand Front, was blown down
and on Chestnut street branches wer,

This week there il, Of course an
other outrage near Buckingham, Conn
The victim Of gang Of "White Caps
was Theodore Hawley, farm hand. A
farmer ia that locality, Gilbert Robinson,
has q house-keoper, with whom, il is
said. Hawley has been intimate Hawley
claims that the woman is his wife, and
other persons corroborate his statement.
But the white Caps beat him and he Is
now dead or dying. There is no reason
for calling attention TO these disorders
and crimes except to show that they hap
pen everywhere among all kinds Of
people and that they are not peculiar to
Democratic OF Southern communities for
any other reason than that Republican
orators try to prove that they are simi.
lar evils from the lawless produce similar
reprisals from people who are sometimes
no better
It would be well IL there were no crime
at all; any fool can make that observation
but the commonwealth itself, the people,
must be the final judge, whether they will
permit or punish crime Sometimes the
organized executives Of the law are un-
equal 10 the task Of protecting society.
The case Of Almy in New Hampshire
is not encouraging to those who believe
that man who attacks. assaults de.
dours and murders a young girl should
meet with sure and swift punishment.
When the law fails, as it is failing,
while Almy escapes the people become
incensed.
Ia communities where such crimes
happen frequently the people become
merciless That result is not due to
latitude or to political affiliations, but to
human nature Plain people cannot com
prehend the value Of maintaining and de-

TIE difference between the labor cost

This bit OF information considered in
connection with the declaration Of Major
L. S. Bent that if the tarin were re.
moved from the raw material he
would lay steel rails down in England
cheaper than they are made there shows
the humbug and fraud Of the tariff for
protection The advocates claim that the
protective tariff secures various industries
that we should not have otherwise
and that 1t enables the mill-owner to pay
the difference between wages here and
wages abroad. In the matter Of steel
rails we have the authority Of Major l..
s Bent. one Of the most extensive manu-
facturers in the country, that his steel
rail business would be more prosperous
under free trade. That disposes Of the
plea that the tariff secures the in
dustry. The Harrisburg Patriot,
an expert authority, says that the differ
ence in wages is less than dollar, while
the tax is Sl34l. There are number
