THE DAMAGE BY STORM.
How the Population Has Been Reduced
In the District Affected.

The police jury of Plaquemines, one of the
Louisiana parishes lately visited by the
great tornado. has carefully investigated
the damage inflicted by 1t and makes a re-
port thereon 1t shows a loss of go lives.
AIS houses destroyed and a total damage to
property Of s73.2O0. The sugar cane was
very slightly damaged. the rice two-thiris.
the orange crop three-fourths.
A large proportion of the people in the
storm district have emigrated or will do SO.
There are refugee camps In La Fourche
and at Harveys, opposite New Orleans
where the refugees are being fed by the
citizens relief committee. The popula ton
Of the district visited by storm was about
5000 OF these 2.O00 were drowned or killed
and LOO have left. reducing the population
TO Z.Soo. or less than one-haf.
The people around Buras. in Plaquemines
parish. are generally leaving, as they have
no houses. crops. levees or orange trees left
and no work to do. They will generally en-
igrate to the sugar district of the parish HI
Is not probable that over 300 of the 600 peo-
pie or Chenere Camenada will remain and
about har the Inhabitants of Grande Isle
will seek a safer home
Although half the people on Bayou Cook
were drowned. the remainder will remain,
as the parish Of Plaquemines has given
them lumber to rebuild their houses and
they have asked for 5000 from the citizens
reher committee to recover their boats,
wrecked In the swamps, which will enable
them TO return to their former trade of oys-
ter fishing.

IN A TIGERS JAWS.
A Circus Wan shows Good Nerve In q
Trying Emergency.

1rom the walton Reporter.
In one OF the cages in the circus parade
on Ihursday were lion and tiger The
beasts. especially the tiger. were fine spect-
mems Of their kind. In the same cage was
the trainer. sitting in apparent unconcern.
AFTER the performance was over in the af-
ternoon. in advertising the concert which
Immediately followed. IL was announced
that Prof Ressd, the lion tanner, would ct
the close go into the den in which he rode
with the Hon and tiger in the morning and
would iced them fresh meat from his own
hands. to show the perfect subsection of the
beasts II was done as advertised. The
beasts. however, were not in good humor
and snarled. showing their teeth and lash
Ing their tails as meat was handed to them
When the trainer, in carrying out the pro-
gram. took piece of meat in his mouth
and held II out for the tiger, the great cat
sprang forward partly against the trainer
knocking him backward and getting only a
portion OF the meat Quick as thought IL
made second spring. this time not for
beef. but for human blood. 1t struck the
trainer on the right arm and breast with
one OF its great claws. tearing through his
clothing and flesh, inhicting seven deep
gashes in the heshy part of his arm. The
other claw struck his hip. tearing on the
clothing. while its terrible jaws closed over
the trainers arm just below the elbow
The man never moved a muscle nor for q
moment took his eyes from those of the
to assert itself. Its tail dashed its great
striped sides and its eyes flashed fire. The
nerve OF the trainer saved his life. He
called to the attendants near: Bring the
scrapers. all the time keeping his eye
fixed on that Of the beast and talking In a
low tone to IL.
1t seemed an age. but it was but a few
seconds. before two attendants half dead
with fear, thrust the iron rods through the
cage against the sides of the tiger The
beast, whom the trainer, pinioned as he
was, still had partly under control loosed
his hold and crouched back in his cage
while the man backed slowly from the cage
As the door shut the tiger gave an angry
growl, jumped forward, but the bars had
closed. The lion showed great excitement
and roared furiously.
The trainers life was saved. A great
sigh of relief went up from the excited
crowd. women tainted and men struggled
TO get from the tent. The trainer was con-
Quoted to DR.. Morrow, who dressed his
wounds. He was very weak and faint from
pain and the terrible strain Of the ordeal
through which he had passed, but bore the
operation without finching. His arm was
badly lacerated from the shoulder to the
wrist Three deep cuts were made by the
tigers claws In the heshy part of his arm,
and seven gashes. made by the beasts
teeth lust below. penetrated deep into his
arm, large enough to insert a mans thumb.
After his wounds were dressed he went to
the hotel He passed a very restless night,
and left for his home in Austinburg, Ohio.
His name Is Henry Reed. He has been
training Hons and tigers for twelve years
and this Is his first accident

PROF. SMITHS CASE.
II II Taken Up by the Presbyterian
Synod of Ohio.

The judicial committee reported at yes
terday's session Of the Presbyterian synod
at Cincinnati. 1t was to the effect that
an agreement had been reached by both
parties concerned in the Smith heresy case
to forego the reading of the minutes Of the
presbytery trial. except such portions az
are vitality essential to the synod and to
omit all unnecessary preliminaries by ad-
mitting that the appeal Is in order AMI
ready for hearing
The committee further recommended that
Dr. Smith and the prosecution each be al
lowed three hours to put their arguments.
pro and con; that the presbytery of Gin
einnati then be granted one hour for five
minute speeches by different members, and,
finally, that ne synod consume an hour
and a half In three-minute speeches. Prof.
smith was given the privilege of opening
ana closing his case. The recommends lions
most unanimous vote
Frof smith was one Of the most conspic-
uous figures on the floor, and remained
mucn or the time near the moderator's ros-
trum.
The Smith case was set for p.m.. with
a recess at 7:30 pm, to allow time for the
foreign missions meeting. Promptly at the
appointed time Prof Smith began his de-
tense speaking from manuscript.
ne opened by speaking of the peace
which had prevailed in the Presbyterian
church since the union of the old and the
new schools. and highly commended 1t, but
declared that there ought to be no shrink
Ing from the points at issue now in the
church. He advocated a calm discussion
or the merits of his own case in a spirit Of
mutual love and esteem. The professor
took the ground that he had violated none
OF the fundamental doctrines of the church,
and declared that he stood today with Pres
byterians.
He then took up technical objections to
the findings of the Presbytery against him
and emphasized the alleged impropriety
OF men who have prejudiced a case sitting
as Jurors. His case. he declared. had been
prejudged in the Presbytery, and some of
his jurors had even gone so far as to pub
ish opinions condemning him before the
trial took place.

There Is said to be a strong possibility Of
another Indian outbreak in the Pine Ridge
section. The Big Foot band, which Col
forsytn seriously crippled recently. marched
400 strong. including $50 fighting bucks. from
the Standing Rock agency to Pine Ridge
where they declared they would remain II
they had to fight. They said their peopIe
II their home.
Capt. Penny Immediately called out his
sixty Indian police, arming each with forty
rounds of cartridges to preserve order. and
two troops OF the ninth cavalry were dis
patched to escort the Big Foot indians
back to Standing Rock This may precip-
rate trouble.

Whose teeth and breath are, every day
White as white clover sweet as hay
And all from using SOZODONT.
