vey for canal between the waters of the
Mississippi river and lake Superior. He
has already introduced bill asking an
appropriation of $4,000 to make this
survey.
"The magnitude and importance of the
construction of a canal between these
waterways and its effect upon the COM
merce of the country cannot be over
estimated,'' Mr.. Keffer said. at compre-
hends a grand revival of river naviga-
ton, and if successfully carried out will
enable a boat to load at Superior and
Duluth and all intermediate points and
carry its freight to New Orleans
with this canal constructed the inter
est of the north and south will be as
closely allied as are those of the east and

EMPoRTA, April 1O.-The hail storm
Sunday afternoon proved to be very de-

glass, and did much more damage than
is generally known. The hail stones
were all the way from the size of hens
eggs down, and fell thick and fast
The loss to Mrs. Waite's green house,
southeast of the city, is estimated at over
500. The glass covering was com
pletely riddled and the flowers and
plants broken and stuck full of broken
bits of glass. About twenty hot beds
containing lettuce and other early vege-
tables were ruined.
The large windows in the different
churches over the city were filed with
holes, the one on the south side of the
First NJ. E. church having nineteen
breaks. Windows on the south side of
business blocks and private buildings
were broken and the damage done in
this way would figure up to large to-
tai
The windows on the south side of the
Normal were also badly demolished.
A gentleman in the city picked up one
hail stone of extra large size which actu-
ally measured nine inches in circumfer-
ence which would make it about equal
to an average siz ed base ball. =
