A terrific cyclone swept across Eatonton
and Morgan County, Ga. about 4 o'clock
Sunday afternoon. Meager accounts only
have been received: At Wizards sta
ton on the Middle Georgia and Atlantic
Railroad every house was torn to pieces.
Henry Adams, white. and Robert Hard
ing colored, were killed outright. Build
ings, fences and crops on the Martin plan
tation were carried away. Over in Nor

ings and house were blown down. Perry
and his family were buried in the falling
timbers. Perry is injured internally and
will probably die. His wife Is in critical
condition. The home of James Collier
was demolished and two of his children
were mangled by the wreck. Full reports
cannot be obtained until daylight. Twenty
persons are known to have been badly
injured, and the list of fatalities will
hardly be less than toa.

HAD TO WAIT FOR THREE WIVES.

Nasr-cd-din's Marriage Enconvenienced
tie Austrian lI!nisser.
The shah of Persi;., who is now in his
sixty-third year, and who is the happy
parent of eighteen children, concluded
recently that he would have another
wedding at his magnificent mountai n
rcsidence'at Elburz, which is some dis
tance from Tchcran. says the Paris
Herald. His majesty, in order to spare
himself the trouble Of marrying again
AZ some future tlcy, decided to take to
himself three wives at once. ,.4
The matrimonial projects Of the shah
caused considerable Inconvenience to
the recently appointed Austrian minis
ter, who desired to present his creden-
tails to Pcrsia's ruler. He left for Ell
burz to do so, but to his great disgust
had to wait over q week in miserable
caravaasary, situated on the road to
Tcheran.
The Persians are great sticklers for
court etiquette, and the representatives
ere prohibited from entering the CAPT
tai until the usual for,nalities have
been observed. AS Nasr-ed-din was oc-
cupied with his marriage a. arcss
rncnts. the court officials were too busy
to look after the Austrian, envoy, and
he was left out in the cold till the shah
was safely married.

RUSSIAN MENDiCANTs.

Swarms OF Vagabonds Overrunning the
Larger Cities OF the Empire.
On On average about two hundred
and fifty mendicants Of both sexes are
every week arrested in the streets of
st. Petersburg, while in Moscow, Odes-
sa, Warsaw and other populous cen
tiers the numbers taken by the police
are proportionately large. One reason
for the existence of 50 numerous a
swarm of mendicants is the granting
of passports to all persons who
have suffered terms of imprison-
ment, no matter how short those pc
RODS may have been or for what trivial
offenses they may have been commit
ted.
The universal passport system which
obtains in Russia makes these indorse-
ments more prohibitory for the holders
than actual police surveillance or than
the tlcket-of-leave system In England.
The passport must always be produced,
and in the case of domestic servants,
male and female, laborers, etc., the
passports remain in the employers
keeping so long Us the servants are re
tanned. The raided mendicants are re-
turned to their birthplaces or recon-
mitted Numbers of them are time
after time expelled their native com
munes, return to the large towns, and
are again committed TO prison, in
which they spend the greater part of
their1ives.
