Death and Ruin.

KANSAS CITY, April "a severe
storm has been raging here and reports
from all parts of Kansas and Western
the country has been the center of cy-
Clone passed through the western part of
Kansas, destroying the town of Towan-
da completely and killing four people
and wOunding sixteen others. The
town of Augusta, in Butler county, was
greatly damaged and five people are re-
ported as killed and fifteen wounded.
The wires are all down west of Topeka
and it is impossible TO get any veritica-
ton of the reports, but their is no doubt
that the storm has been very severe.
From Ottawa, Olathe and Salina come
reworts of severe winds which blew down
many houses and destroyed much prop
erty, injuring several people but causing
no deaths.
The wind in Missouri was not so Sc
we're as in Kansas, but it has done great
damage to the fruit trees in many parts
of the state. At St. Joseph, Mo, sew
eral large houses were unroofed and
three people were injured. At Leaven-
worth, Kan, the opera house and two
large manufacturing establishments were
unroofed, while many plate glass wind
ows We're destroyed. The reports from
the western part of Kansas are very
meagre on account of the lack of wire
facilities, but it is evident that much
damage has been done with great loss of
life. In this city the Western Union
Telegraph company is greatly crippled.

THERE was never a more hypocriticaI
aggregation of political humanity, says
the Philadelphia Herald, than that which
is ironically known as 1.-The grand old
party" 1t has for years been rolling
up its pharisaical eyes at the wickedness
! of of the Democracy and claiming a pc
culiar endowment of morality and gen
eral goodness. Everything it does has a
better-than-thou expression about it,
The claim that it is more honest than
its opOnents is one of its numerous pre-
tensions, and is particularly advanced in
regard to the practices of gerrymander-
ing. From the tone of Republican
journals and speakers it would be sup
posed that their party never gerrymand
ered-that the practice is vice to which
Democrats are exclusively addicted.
But what are the facts?
Take the examples of New York and
Ohio. In the former, with a Democratic
majority of $4,000, a congressional ap-
portionment bill is about to be passed by
Democratic Legislature, which will
give sixteen districts to the Democrats
and fourteen to the Republicans, with a
chance for the latter in three classed as
doubtful" There couldn't be a fairer
or more equitable division than this.
In Ohio with Republican majority
OF 10000, a Republican Legislature
makes a disgraceful gerrymander by
which sixteen congressional districts are
given to the Republicans and six to the
Democrats. Nothing more is needed
than this contrast to show up in its true
light that sanctimonious pretensions of
Republicans. This example alone, with
other instances of its false pretense,
stamps the word "hypocrite" on the
brazen forehead of the pharisaical old
party.
The Democrats of New York, led by
"that bad man." David B. Hill, appor-
ton the state in a fair, impartial and
equitable manner, while the Republicans
of Ohio, after being simultaneously lee
tured by good Mr.. Mckinley on the sin
of gerrymandering, perpetrate the most
outrageous gerrymaDder that ever dis
graced the politics of the country.

Six Girl Bandits.

SALMON CITY, Idaho, April An
important arrest of one woman and six
girls has been made here on suspicion
of committing the Chicago stage robbery
Numerous holdups of the stage have oc-
CURED near Harvey's ranch lately
Suspicion was directed to old man Har-
vey and his family and the Sheriff set
about to trap him. The Sheriff, with
ten men, waited in hiding near the
place the robberies usually took place,
and when the stage arrived here short
tine afterward six bandits stepped out in
the road and stopped it, leaveling their
guns at the driver.
The Sheriff here came forward and
took in the whole gang, which proved to
be composed of Harvey's six daughters.
who had assumed male attire. When
the arrest was made one of the girls
weakened and told the whole story
She said she never liked the work and
was glad they were caught. They were
trained to it by their fathar and mother
and the proceeds were shipped East for
sale, so as not TO excite suspicion in the
country.

THE Republican county convention
met on Monday and was called to order
by EX-Sheriff Stineman, chairman of
the county committee. Everything was
cut and dried and the program laid out
by the managers went through without
hitch. MeSsrs. Cyrus Elder, of Johns
town, Ed. James, of Ebensburg and F.
A. Thompson, of Lilly, were elected del
egates to the state convention with in
structions to support Hon. John Dean
for Supreme Judge. II. w. Story, of
Johnstown, was declared to be the choice
OF Cambria county for delegate to the
Minneapolis convention. The unsettled
relations between Senator Quay and
President Harrison left the managers of
the convention in a quandary as to
whether to endorse the administration of
of President Harrison or not and fearing
that they might get their ''foot in it'' if
they would give Harrison a send off
they concluded to wait until Quay and
Harrison had been officially declar-
ed reconciled. 1t was pretty tough of
the postmasters present that they could

Hail as Large as Hens Eggs

WHEELING, W. Va, April 3.-A terri
tic hail and rain storm, accompanied by
thunder and lightning, passed over this
section of the country about five O'Clock
this afternoon. Though the hail stones
fell thick and fast in Wheeling no dam
age of any consequence was done. In
Martins Ferry, however, hail stones
were as large as hens eggs and great
damage was done to windows, hundreds
of which were broken.
The streets were badly damaged by the
heavy rain. Washouts are reported on
the railroads and no trains will be in be-
fore morning. 1t is reported that much
live stock in the country was injured by
the hail, In some instances the horns
Of cattle were broken off. A telephone
message from Martins Ferry says that
nearly every window facing west was
broken.

Ex.REpREsESrArrvE OWEN VIII

EX-REPREsESTATIvE OWEN, who it was
said at the time the appointment was
made, appointed Commissioner of Immi-
gration-a position created by the billion
dollar Congress-by Mr.. Harrison in
order to pay one of his Indiana political
debts, is in the hottest kind of hot water,
and it is among the possibilities that he
may figure as the defendant before a
criminal court. He is charged openly
by his immediate superior, Assistant
Secretary Nettleton, with being unfit,
incompetent, and Enthusiastically, and by
implication with being dishonest.
These facts have been brought out in the
investigation which the joint House and
Senate immigration Committee is con-
Quoting, and which promises to show
that some treasury otiicials-among
them Assistant Secretary Nettleton-
have been very wastefully extravagant,
if not actually dishonest, in allowing
$4,000 to be spent upon the Govern
ment immigration Station at Ellis
Island, when only $3.50, 900 had been
appropriated, the difference being paid
from the fund known as "head money"

Killed His Young Vile.

WHEELING, w. Va, April 5.-A hor-
rible murder occurred in this city few
minutes before 8 O'Clock this morning.
William Maier, a baker, aged % years,
shot and instantly killed his young wife,
to whom he had been married only six
months.
Maier and his wife quarreled last
night, and when he arose to go to work
this morning he asked her to kiss him.
She refused, and he drew revolver and
shot her four times through the head
and body. The woman never moved,
having been killed at the first shot.
Mrs. Maier's little sister was in the
room, and she was slightly wounded
The murderer rushed down stairs and
escaped. A posse is looking for him,
and lynching would not be a surprise

IT is not gratifying, says the Boston
Herald, (Republican) to learn that Mat
thew S. Quay is making headway in his
contest for reelection to the Senate from
Pennsylvania, but it is now surprising.
Mr.. Quay's Republican competitor for
the place is John Daizell, at present a
member of the House from the Pittsburg
district Mr. Dalzell is a man of person
al force and mental ability. The latter
trait is against him. Pennsylvania has
hardly had a statesman in the Senate for
40 years unless he has been chosen by
accident. She has developed few men
of capacity for anything better than in
trigue in either branch of Congress, and
such as have appeared have been care
fully kept out of the Senate. United
States Senatorships there have been re
served for the Camerons and Quays,
and, if they can't elect themselves, they
usually succeed in putting ciphers in
their places.

WHILE the likelihood of Mr.. Cleve-
lands nomination at Chicago, says the
Harrisburg Patriot, is again increasing
his enthusiastic admirers who insist that
he will be chosen by the convention be-
fore his own state is reached on the roll
call are not sufficiently familiar with the
situation to make safe predictions.
Before New York is reached on the
call of states twenty-seven, Illinois hav-
ing the largest delegation of these, will
have voted. Should they cast their bal
ots unanimously for Mr.. Cleveland he
will have 500 votes or 80 less than
enough to nominate under the two
thirds rule, provided all the states and
territories, including the District of Col
umbia, are represented except Alaska
and Indiana territory. Should New
York ask to be passed the roll-call would
have to include Pennsylvania before Mr..
Cleveland would be nominated, II dele
gates from this state would be enough to
give him the necessary two-thirds. No
candidate, therefore, however popular,
can be nominated before New York gets
chance to vote for or against him.

MONTREAL, April 2.-The exodus of
French Canadians to the New England
states has assumed enormous proper
tions. Thousands are daily leaving
their homes in various parts of the prov
ince and going across the border. The
leading French Canadian papers are be-
coming alarmed and are discussing the
question whether it would not be prefer
able to have a commercial union with
the United States than have the prov
ince depopulated.

paper of the dominion, which is owned
by ex-Mayor Beauregrand of Montreal,

dacy of ex-Alderman Mcdonald on the
straight annexation ticket in Toronto and
declares strongly in favor of the annexa-
