HOMESTEAD, KAN, April rs,

ing fanne! shaped cloud right at
the top Of the hin south of the
house sweeping down upon us. |
screamed to Nettic there is a cy-
clone coming and We picked up the
children and ran for the cave. We
reached it in time to push the door
shut and held it By main force.
1t only lasted few minutes, but
when we opened the door every
thing was gonc--both houses, the
stable, wagons, corn CRIB and every
thing. 1t made clean sweep and
we were left with nothing but the
cloths we had on for We had no time
to snatch wrap as we ran, Nearly
every one saw the cloud and saw
our house lifted in the air and torn
to pieces and in ten minutes after
the storm passed there we're a
dozen there to help us.
My husband was on his way home
when he saw the cloud strike the
house. He said it lifted it over
hundred feet in the air and blew it
like feathers ia every direction.
There is nothing left of the
houscs but kiuahuQ, 1t is amaz-

His Empty Threat.

William Grady was confined to his house
until a week ago suffering from broken
leg. and becoming respondent frequently
threatened to commit suicide.
Yesterday morning he obtained some
money from his wife and at once proceeded
to invest the amount in liquid refreshments
with the usual result that he returned to his
home Intoxicated last night.
In mandlin way Grady informed his wife
that he was tired of life and that he in
tended to drink the contents of small bot
tie which he had in his hand and which he
said contained laudanum. He then drank
the stuff and fell to the floor apparently un-
conscious.
Neighbors informed the police of the
affair, and the pseudo would be-suicide was
taken to the Receiving Hospital ia the
patrol-wagon.
When Grady saw the array of instruments
in the operating-room he became very
lively corpse. and eneFgetically denied that
he had taken anything, but had done Ii "for
bluff"
The physicians refused to believe his
statement, and administered the customary
emetics in large quantities, without effect.
and after exhausting the list were obliged to
resort TO the stomach-pump.
Finally. with considerable difficulty. sew
eral quarts oil mustard-water, sulphate of
zinc and other antidotes admin stered were
pumped out, but no traces OF the poison
could be found by the physicians.
Wnetber iaudanum or any other drnp
would affect Grady is a matter open to dis
cussion by medical scientists.

Suppression of Vice.

ton number Of these immoral publca-
tions.

rooms, warrant was sworn out for his
arrest
He was found in a rear room on the sec
ond floor in his book binderY. He had
about 900 nicely bound volumes OF these
works. Some were illustrated and some
were not.
The man was Immediately arrested and
his books seized.
At the Central station he gave the name
of Charles a. Graui, and was charged with
having obscene prints in his possession.
This fellow is young German of about
26 years, and is printer as we'll as book
biHder. He had nothing 10 say In exteE ia
tion OF his crime. being quite Sullen ard

After this raid the officers went to a pri-
yate house on O'Farrell street, near Leayen-
worth, and there in n back room found
good sized book printing press with the
plates from which the immoral books were
printed.
There were also printed and ready to be
bound about 400 books
The entire outfit was seized. The number
of this house was withheld by the police for
reasons Of their own.
This is the largest seizure OF the kind ever
made in this city, and it is estimated
that the plant and the printed matter was
worth at least $1,000.
Only few OF the'books had got on the
market as this particular enterprise had not
been running long. As this was the only
one OF its kind the police believe that they
have every volume not in private hands In
the city. as well as the arch eonspirator.
