FOREST AVENUE.
A Rumor that the Supreme Court Win
Decide Against Petitioners for Widen
ing

There is a rumor that the Supreme
Court are to hand down decision ad-
verse to the petition. of the City OF Deer
ing for the widening of Forest avenue.
Inquiry yesterday failed either to con-
firm or deny this rumor.
1t will be remem bered that originally
the City of Deering petitioned to the
County Commissioners to widen Forest
avenue from the vicinity of the Pottery
to Ocean street, but specified no width,
leaving that to the Commissioners. This
petition came up at about the time when
the Falmouth bridge was burned, and
the commissioners felt that the county
could not stand the expense of the. wild
ening. So the petition was denied.
An appeal was taken to the Supreme
Court, and committee consisting of
Messrs. A. F. Moulton, J. E.Blabon and
E.B Maliet, were appointed to hear the
case.
This committee reported in favor of a
widening OF twenty feet, and laid down
the lines.
To this the County Commissioners OBJ
jected, raising the point that the CON-
mittee had exceeded its power in laying
down the lines of the widening. The
commissioners held that the committee
could only report in favor of widening
or against it; and that they could not
lay out the widening.
On this point the ca Sc was carried to
the Law Court, where the decision is
now pending.

THE STORM.

The storm which passed over this
place on Tuesday afternoon was but
a summer zephyr to what was expe-
rienced at other points.
The hurricane seems to have been
of Kansas birth and ragged. on Mon.
day night, in the town of Osvego,
in the form Of most terrific hail
storm accompanied by violent wind
Utterly breaking every widow in
the town.
All day on Tuesday it rushed on
ward crossing Missouri, Illinois and
Indiana dong much damage to
growing crops.
AT Madison Ind. many buildings
were damaged, causing a loss esti-
mated at $3.50
At Louisville, Ky, one large two
story brick house was was blown to
fragments and half dozen other
houses were unroofed.
In the region about MEANWHILE
much damage was done to timber,
stock and crops.
At Washington, G. H. more than
a dozen houses were blown down or
badly damaged several persons be
ing more or less seriously injured.
The storm seems to have spread
almost over the whole state as great
damage is reported in the nelghbor-
hood of Kirby in Allen county,
where many houses were unroofed
barns were blown down and trees
uprcoted.
In West Va, at Wheeling and
st Marys houses were unroofed and
many oil-well dericks were blown
down and damage done to the extent
of $50, 900.
The storm extended with greater
or less violence from lakes to gulf,
and the loss to growing crops can
not be estimated at this time, but is
undoubtedly very great.

STRUCK BY THE CARS.
George Heine, of Logan Killed
While Attempting to Cross
the r. K. Track.

On last Friday morning George
Heine, one of Logan's popular butch
ers made call on the farmers
in the neighborhood of Union Fur
mace for the purpose of purchasing
stock.
He was in a covered blackboard
and driving a young horse.
On his way home it was necessary
to cross the track of the River divis on
of the c. H. V. & T. Ry. at Cadiz at
which place he arrived just previous to
the south bound passenger train,
which leaves Logan at 9:25 A. M.
Willows growing in the field some
what obscure the view as the crossing
lis approached and the rapidly moving
train was miscalculated and the horse
had just cleared the track when the
vehicle was struck by the locomotive
and demolished.
Mr.. Heine was thrown from the
blackboard striking the pilot of the
locomotive with the left side of his
head and body.
From DR.. Campbell, R. R. Surgeon,
we learn that the left side of the skull
above and back Of the ear was crushed
making wound four inches in length
one and one half inches wide. Two
ribs on his left side were also broken.
He continued to breathe for about
fifty minutes but was wholly uncon-
scious from the time of the shock.
The deceased was born in Gifhaun,
Hanover, Germany, Oct 20 1862, and
came to America and Logan with his
parents in 1878.
He was married Sept. 19, 1886 to
Miss Mary Christian Hartman, and
his death occurred June % 1894.
A father, one brother, widow and
two children survive him.
His funeral occurred on Sunday
morning,was largely attended and was
conducted by the l. o. o. F. of which
Order he has been a member for about
nine years.

The details of the Breckenridge
Pollard trial are sickening to the more
decent of the whole country: and some
are saying that it should not be made
public, But that is all wrong. Let
the lecherous old imitator of Brigham
Young be held up to the public gaze
and public loathing in all his dirt, ev-
en- as he was before upheld as an ex-
ample of brilliant craftsmanship and
sober virtue Let this filthy fraud
who has all his life been "a grave that
appeared not" now be- exposed, that
true men and women NAV avoid his
awful example.
