SCHARTOW WILL ACCEPT.
The Famous Hero Of August 10th, 1870, to
Visit Emperor William.


OMAHA, Neb., September 25.-Charles
Schartow, of this city has received an
official letter from Emperor William, Of
Germany, asking him to visit that coun-
try, and at the Emperor's expense. The
letter recalled a day-August 16, 1870
when the Prussian army was battling
with the French at Mars la Tour, and
a mitrailleuse, the French phOto-type
of the Gatling gun. stationed on hill,
was pouring shot into the Prussian
ranks. Nearly 150 men had fallen
under it's fire and the invaders must
silence the gun or fall back. No Of
ficer would order his command to cap
ture it, for that meant al but certain
death Volunteers were called for and
fifteen men responded. Schartow was
one of these and one of the three that
returned alive after the gun was cap
tured. Scbartow will accept the invi-
tatiOn. He was decorated at the time
by medals which he still possesses.

Over seventy-Five Lives Already Lost and
the Injured are Dying Hourly.
MINSEAPoLIs, Mimi. September 25.-
Every hour brings addition reports OF
the destruction wrought by Friday
nights cyclone. It is now certain that
the loss of life will be in the neighbor-
hood of seventy-fve while the injured
will number several times as many.
Some of those hurt are expected to die
and it is not unlikely that fully one
hundred persons will be numbered in
the list of the cyclones fury. The
property loss is very heavy and it is al
most impossible at this time to obtain
anything more than rough estimates OF
the damage done.
North of Algona seems to have been
the scene of the greatest harvest OF
death, more persons being killed IN
Kossuth county than in any other one
county through which the tornado
passed. Nineteen funerals were held at
Algona yesterday.
North of Emmettsburg, which seems
to have been the point where the cy-
clone first assumed dangerous proper
tions, two lives were crushed out.

in its path. For the most part of its
course it travelled through a farming
district, Leroy and Spring Valley,
Mimi, being the only two towns of any
consequence that were damaged but
even here the deaths were compara-
lively few.
AS the storm travelled through the
country and avoided villages and towns
the property loss is largely confined to
farm buildings and these being badly
scattered render even an approxima-
ton of the loss impossible, but conserva-
tive estimates place the damage at not
less than 81 900 600

THE CATHOLICS OBJECTION.
Outspol1en Against the Celebration of the
Birthday of Gustavus Adolphus.

BERLIN, September 25.-As the au-
thorities of the Prussian government
are making preparations to celebrate
the three hundredth anniversary of the
birth of Gustavus Adolphus, of Sweden,
objections are being raised by the cath
olics through the medium of the col
umns of Germania. These protests are
based on the ground that the Swedes
devastated Germany and did nothing to
help her establish her Unity. These ar
tlcles further declare that the move
ment is supported by protestants mere
ly for political reasons. The Vossische
Zeitung in reply to the catholic pro-
tests, reports that no matter what the
reasons for the celebration may be, it is
an indsputable fact that Gustavus Adol-
phus enacted the role of a saviour and
secured the liberty of conscience when
there was the greatest need of it.

Mrs. Margaret Leary. who was terri

Third street, at 1850 last evening, by the
explosion OF a lamp supposed to have
been thrown at her by her husband,

Mrs. Leary made an ante-mortem
statement last night ut the hospital
In which she said that the oil-lamp had
exploded Just as Leary entered the
room, and that three-cornered cash
which Leary has on the back Of his neck
was received by him jumping from a
window.
