PLATTsBURG, N. Y, July S.-The
fourth annual session OF the Catho-
lie summer school OF America was
formally opened at st. Johns
church yesterday. Fully 1000 per-
sons were seated in the handsome

A GLOOMY OUTLOOK
The Cornell Crew May Be Hands

The Cornell Crew May Be Handi-
capped BY Sickness Tomorrow.
HENLEY. oN-THAMEs, Eng, July
S.-The Henley regatta begins to-
morrow. Cornell, at 3.30lo'clock of
that day, will meet the famous
Leander Boat club crew, probably
the strongest on the river. In view
Of the depressing accounts circu-
lated regarding the health of the
Cornell crew, a representative Of
the Associated Press had a chat
with Chas. E. Courtney, their
coach. Courtney looked very glum
and said: II do not know whether
the Cornell crew will be able to
row tomorrow. The fact is, we
have two sick men among the
crew who ought not to row in their
present condition. They are Hager
and Wennell. The latter was in q
high fever yesterday evening. The
two men, however, may be all
right tomorrow, as 1 was afflicted
in the same way and felt all right
one day, and bad the next; but II
our boys were fit l should feel very
confident that there is not crew
on the river equal to them. They
have been steadily improving in
practice, and make faster time at
each trial. In spite Of this, L am
unwilling to take the responsible.
ty of allowing the sick men to
ofr In, h onl In
the invalids are not better tomor-
row, we shall have to put in SUBJ
stitutes or else scratch. I have
done everything possible to keep
the men in condition, but they
have been unable to contend with
tho climate and little worries they
have been subjected to. If l had
the thing to do again, l would re-
quest permission to bring twenty
five men here and keep two crews
in training"
Courtney seems to be over anx-
ious about the result. He has been
working very hard and there is rea-
son to believe Cornell's prospects
are much better than he imagines.
The boys launched their boat short
ly after 10 o'clock and rowed at
half speed down the course. All
other crews were out and it was adj
mitted on all sides that none Of
them approached CornelPs form or
appear to row as easily. Members
of the Leander crew have an unde-
niable hang in each stroke. A num-
Der OF English coaches were
grouped with Courtney on the river
bank while the crews were prac-
ticing, and one OF them said: "Well,
Courtney, your boys certainly row
in the best form and in better style
than any crews on the river. We
give them four out of six points.
Their principal fault, in our mind,
Is in the shortness of their stroke,
but their blade work and use Of
their hands could not be better"
Courtney admits the stroke Of
the Cornell boys is not 80 long as
he would like.

THE GREAT STORM.
A HastY Summary of the Bare Loss
cfyIife-A Terrible Story.

ofLife-A Terrible Story.
KANsAs CITY, Mo-, July S.-Re-
ports jOf storms during the past
three days come from over large
territory and show the entire east
ern water shed Of the Rocky Noun
tains from Nebraska: and Nevada
to Texas, was swept by a storm
Friday night, when the severest
blow came. Reports Of loss Of life
and destruction of property come
with every telegram, and the down.
pour, first regarded as blessing,
grew into a wave of devastation.
Fields Of grain which promised the
most bountiful yield in many
years, were swept bare OF vegeta-
ton. In several instances seas OF
rain were abetted in their work of
destruction by tornadoes. 1t is
too early to sum up the loss, but
the total is appalling, and those to
whom the angry elements spared
life have little left to sustain it.
Stories Of the storm are so similar
that statistical summary Is all
there is left to tell. The storm
forces embraced over 200 square
miles, with the southwestern cor
ner OF Missouri as the center.
The greatest loss of life is report
ed from Winona, Mo-, where eleven
corpses have been found, with as
many more missing.
At Baxter Springs, in South
western Kansas, five were killed
and eleven seriously injured by a
cyclone that accompanied the
storm.
One person was drowned at
Columbus, and two at Ottawa,
Kansas.
At Van Buren,, Ark, a mother
and her babe were drowned.
A family of five encamped on
the bank of Fish Creek in the In
dian Territory and nothing Of them
or their belongings have been
found, except part Of their wagon
on a pile of drift wood.
At Thomasville, Mo-, where the
rain fall was four inches in one
hour, five persons were lost.
Unconfirmed reports received
put the loss Of life as follows: Three
at Fayetteville Ark, one at Polao,
Kas., one at Richard, Kas., and six
Of hunting party in the Indian
Territory. This gives the known
and probable loss Of torty-three
lives. The total will be in
creased when the receding
water will permit a thorough
search. The loss in property can
be based in millions. Dwellings,
fences and farm truck were car
ried off and highway and railroad
bridges swept away. Thirty Of
eighty buildings in Winona sue
cumbed. Five residences, church
and warehouse went down at
Baxter Springs. Six bridges went
out in Russell Co., Kansas.
About Jefferson City, Mo-, many
square miles of growing grain
were destroyed. Traffic on the Fort
Scott and Memphis railroad is
temporarily suspended. Reports
Of damage to property, other than
above noted, come from five points
in Kansas, nine in Missouri, six in
Arkansas and two in Indian Terri
tory.
The storm spent itself in Illinois,
but having lost its force, proved a
blessing to crops. These summa-
ries are only fraction Of the loss
in property. The greatest burden
falls upon the farmers, as the sea-
son is too far spent to plant new
crops, and suffering must surely
follow in the storms wake.

LEGISLATIVE MILL.

The bill providing for a county ab-
stractor and doing away with local ab-
~stractors as now constituted has been
virtually killed. Several other bills OF
much popular interest have been killed.
The attempt to tax mortgages has met
its q~uietus at the hands of Populist
McGee and the bill forbidding mort
cages on future crops and increase
stock has also been laid to rest.
The only bill which shows real life and
has a perennial record is the gopher"
bill. It matters not whether the bounty
proposed to be paid for killing gophers is
three cents, two cents or n cent per
tail, the average legislator wakes clio
quent in his advocacy of one side or the
other OF the measure. He feels he is
equal to the subject and wants to do 1t
justice. The bill will pass at one cent
per tail il not talked to death.
A bill has been introduced to aid in
carrying the orphans home plan Of car
ing for neglected children instead OF
sending them TO the reform school.
The law passed two years ago EN-
powering the attorneys to charge 90
cents a folio for paper hss been repealed.
IL was found that under this law GER
tain attorneys ran up the costs in simple
suits U enormous amounts and made it
a pretext for robbing their clients I'M
msrcifully. The law was promptly ap-
psaled without opposition.
