damages therefrom is reported from
several points. 1t is said the timber
belts of the surrounding counties
suffered materially from the force of
the winds, much timber being dam
aged and many trees uprooted. The
reports as to loss of propety at Pres

least effect, until being put under the

prove, and is now in as good health as
ever in her life. You can refer to me

STARV ED TO DEATH,
This Woman Whose Husband Expected the
Lord to Provide.


Lord to Provide.
INDIANAPOLIS Nov. 24.-Mrs. Iona
Weed, of West indianapolis, was borne
to the grave Thursday. According to
her own admissions, made while dying,
and the statement of her husband and
children, she starved to death.
Investigation shows that for several
weeks the family, which consisted of
the par IS and three children, have
been /. .,g on a scant number of bis
cults made out of -four, water, salt and
soda, with plain -four gravy. Once in
awhile they secured little oatmeal or
hominy. The dying woman was a
that the Lord would provide. The
father shared the same belief, and he
spent more of his time addressing the
Throne of Grace than he did in hust-
ling for something to eat
Wednesday, however, he was sue
cessful in having promise of work,
but his wife died before he could re-
port and he lost the job. The family
was too proud to make known their
condition. They had relatives at West
Newton who would have helped them,
had the situation been known.
Neighbors relieved their necessities
when the fact became known, and pre-
pared the body for burial They re-
port that the remains showed every
sign of the scant care which the wom-
an had received.

SEVEN KILLED.
Edison, Moore g. Co.'s Immense. Es-
tablishment Wrecked.
Employees Jump From the Fifth Floor
The Building Cola pses and Four Bodies
Were Buried In the RuIns-The
Loss Is About 6SOO,OOO.

DETROIT, Nov. 24.-Seven employee Of
the dry goods firm of Edison Moore &
Co., Jefferson avenue, lost their lives
Thursday afternoon by the burning of
that establishment They were: James
Mckay, Bradley A. Dunning, Ed. Gun
ther, Edward F. Volt, Pat Markey,
Daniel A. Baker and Henry Rider.
The fire started between the fourth
and fifth floors in the rear of the build
ing and spread rapidly. There were
eight or nine employees on the upper
floor, the rest having gone to lunch.
Bradley Dunning jumped from the
fifth floor, striking on bag of jute
which the tiremen had placed under
meath the window He died shortly af-
forwards. James Mckay followed
Dunning. In his leap for life he struck
an electric light wire and from there to
the ground He was unconscious when
picked up and died in two hours. An
other was seen creeping toward the
upper window. He was on his hands
and knees, blinded and sufsocating by
the dense smoke. He reached the sill
and tried to drag himself to the open
air He was too far spent, however,
and fell back into the flames.
The floors of the Edison M oore build
ing began falling in short time after
the fire started, and at 1:20 half of the
Bates street wall collapsed. moment
later there were two loud reports, and
the entire building collapsed. At 1850
Friday morning the fire was practically
under control.
The bodies of Volt. Markey, Baker
and Rider have not yet been recovered
from the ruins. 1t is possible that there
are three other clerks who perished in
the flames, as they. were thought te
have been in the building at the time
of the fire and have not been seer
since.
During the progress of the fire, VIM
Burgess, pipeman of Engine Co. No. 1
was severely cut by tin falling from
the burning building. No attempt ha.
been yet made to search for the bodies
of the unfortunate men. The loss is il
the neighborhood of $500, 600.

THEY ARE RETURNING.

Statesmen Getting Ready to Tackle the
weighty Problens-The Tariff Pre-
dominant.
WAsHINGToN, Nov. %. 27.-Senators and
members of congress have begun to
return and are found around the
hotels, the capitol and the depart
ments. Many of the members are
making arrangements for the winter
and settling their families in the hotels
and residence they have selected.
There is great deal of interest mani
tested among the congressman about
the tariff. Other matters of legislation
are infrequently discussed.
There is general impression that
little will be done before the holidays.
although the wheels of legislation will
be going around all the time. There
are several matters pending in both
houses which can occupy the time, even
if the tariff bill does not come up in
the house at once. All the bills which
the house passed and sent to the sem
ate during the silver debate can be
considered in that body while the tariff
bill occupies the house.
There are a number of members of
congress who would very much like to
have the Hawaiian matter come up in
congress very early, and there are
others who would prefer that it be
handled by the state department and
not brought before congress.
