WEDNESDAYS STORM
Reports Reach the City of Damages in this
Vicinity

Vicinity.
The storm which struck this city am
vicinity on "Wednesday evening, was
one of the most peculiar and one OF the
most destructive which have visited
heeling in years. Persons who
watched it state that 1t gathered back
of Bridgeport, circled about In north
easterhy direction until it got south, be-
fore Ii broke. In Martins Ferry 1t was
very severe. The hail and wind did a
greatd deal of damage. Out in Belmont
county the growing crops suffered con-
siderably.
The storm was probably most severe
between the northern extremity OF this
city and Glens's Run. Farmers living
in tha at vicinity state that the fields were
white with hail when the storm sub b.
sidedsand heavy wind completed the
work.of destruction started by the hall.
One gell-known farmer estimated that
nearly one-half the garden stnff Is
ruined. Grapes suffered most. In
some places the corn blades were torn
into shreds by the hail and wind.
OutIalong the National road, the hall
confined for about fifteen minutes,
and WIS very heavy during that time.
Corn, bats, and fruit suffered most A
gentleman who came up from the Camp
Grounds at Moundsvile yesterday,
stated that considerable damage was
done In that section Of Marshall county.
The little stream above the camp
grounds, ordinarily about three feet in
width, was swollen until Ii was nearly
100 feet wide, and carried great deal
of lumber and debris into the river.

A Big CrowdsAttends-Re Result Of the DIFF
ferent Races.


The picnic of the Mark Twain Rod
and Gun Club drew large crowd at
the New Fair Grounds, yesterday after
noon and evening. The members OF the
Club put forth every effort to make the
affair a success. Meister's brass band
was stationed on the grounds and dis
coursed programme OF attractive
music, while Meyers orchestra made
the music for dancing on the pavilion.
The most interesting programme OF
all opened about four O'CLOCK,
while all eyes were turned upon
the race track, where number OF
interesting contests took place, the hrst
being a reel race between the Martins
Ferry and Bellaire hose teams. During
the course OF the race each reel was to
unravel fifty feet OF hose. From the
signal to go TO the close OF the race the
Martins Ferry reel was an easy winner.
The next, and one OF the most import
ant features of the day, was the run
ming race between Z. c. McClelland and
Wongo, the Indian. The race was two
miles. McCleliand came in an easy
winner by about twenty-five yards. AT
the conclusion of the race McClelland
was presented with prize OF ten dollars,
His friends were very indignant. and
claimed that the committee In charge
had promised the winner OF the race
twenty five dollars. General dissstis-
faction prevailed for while, but after
considerable talk McCleland's friends
were made to feel easier and the matter
was dropped. However, McCleliand
received but ten dollars for the race,
and made determined kick. He called
at the REGISTER Office last night TO
state the particulars of the agreement
between the club and him self, alleging
that he was offered $40 for mile race,
but declined to run less than two miles.
The next attraction was half-miie
trotting race, best two out OF three
heats, between a horse named Jerry"
driven by Mr.. Kemple, and horse be-
longing to Mr.. Creamer. driven by
Frobe. Kemple won the first heat.
Frobe won the second heat. and during
the third heat considerable confusion
prevailed, and it was difficult TO learn
who won the heat, but later Kemple's
friends announced that the race had
been awarded to him.
After the racing, general good time
was had, some INDUCING in dancing
while others enjoyed strolling about the
grounds. 1t was near midnight before
the affair was brought TO close.

Special telegram 10 the Rs9istr.
WASHINGTON, June 2s.-The appoint
ment by the President to-day OF Capt.
Louis Delsplain, of Wheeling, as Consul
to Demerara, British Guiana, was some
thing Of surprise, as the Captain had
applied for French consulate, and II
is understood had expressed no desire TO
20 TO South America and received no inss
timation that he would be sent there, but
this frequently happens in the appor-
tionment Of consulships. Demerara is
an important post, paying $4,000 year
In salary and something additional In
fees. Although IL is close to the equa-
tor the climate is not unhealthy nor ex-
cessively hot, the thermometer seldom
rising above 90 degrees, ii Is said.

For some time past there has
been quite . stir Of excitement here
and at st. Anthony on account of
. 1OO-yard race, which took place
last, Saturday at the latter place
between professional runner
named Clark and ]. Brandon, for
$3.50 q side. As both men were
time runners, 81 and 81 seconds
men, and the fact that Clark was
to give Brandon ten feet start, the
excitement was intense. Betting
was heavy on both sides. Many
hundreds of dollars and several
bands of horses were put up. The
betting was about even. At the
signal to start Brandon showed his
remarkable agility from the first
jump, keeping his lead and adding
to it at the finish. The track being
in very poor condition time was
not as good as expected. 1t is
said to have been thirteen seconds
for Clark.

EiMOre bulletin.
The wool shipments from this
point have already reached the
enormous amount of S26, 1857
pounds. Only 1OO,212 pounds of
this was sold to buyers here-the
balance, 726, 055, being consigned to
commission houses in Boston. Or
dinarily this product alone should
have distributed in this community
from 100000 to 1926, 900 but the
uncertain future of prices together
with the stringency ofthe money
market has by; their combined in.
huences 80 depressed the price of
wool that the probabilities are the
net amout this year will not exceed
$4,000. The market east still
continues in the dull aud un;nter-
esting condition which has pre-.
vailed the entire season. After the
dark cloud shall have dispersed, it
is possible a reaction will take
place that materially swell the net
