Drink Pure Water.

A gentleman from Washington, who Is
an expert on mineral waters, visited our
town a few days ago, and pronounced the
water of the Artesian Well to be of excel
lent quality He thinks it contains IRON,
sulpher and magnesium. We are glad to
see that the fountain is so popular, ana
the general use of the water ought to con-
tribute to the healthfulness of the town.
Es 1ecially ought it to be used at this 'ea
son when persons are particularly suscep-
tible to the injurious effect OF bad water
slch as is afforded by many of our wells

Tangled Heaps of Ruins Mark the Path
of New Jerseys Storm.
HAcKENsAcK, n. J., July 15.-Be-
tween 10000 and so, 900 persons visited
the scenes of the ruin and devastation
at Cherry Hill yesterday.
Viewed in the light of day, the de-
VISITATION appeared more complete
Everywhere in the path of the storm
were ruins. The tangled heap of ruins
by the railroad track tell where the
depot went to pieces. That pile of
wreckage showed where a house had
been thrown down and that one where
a barn had been RACED by the winds
The leahess trees that withstood the
strain of the whirlwind gave the ap-
pearance OF nidwinter. On two sides,
viewed from the center of the town,
there were banks of green, but where
the storm swept everything was black
and bare. Three were killed in the
storm.

BOSTON, July 15.-The program of
the Christian Endeavor yesterday in
Guided work only for the visiting
clergymen. The local ministers in
general gave place to those who had
come from other localities to attend
the convention. and it is doubtful if
ever in the history of Boston its pulpits
were supplied with such an array of
eminent preachers.
Several delegations located down
town emphasized their ideas on the
matter of Sabbath observance by
meeting and passing resolutions
pledging themselves not to use the
street cars or other conveyances Sun
day. AS result the streets, Just prior
to the commencement of regular
church services, were thronged with
men and women wearing Christian
Endeavor badges, proceeding on foot
to the most convenient churches
They had already begun the day with
the usual $50 a. m. prayer meetings at
their various headquarters, but in con-
trast to their custom on other days,
there was no singing on the streets as
the delegations passed to and fro.
To-day is the last day of the conven-
ton. Sessions will be held in the
tents and in Mechanics hall in the
morning ans evening. A noon-day
rally will oc~s=S in Faneui1 hall, and
! The Afternoon will be devoted to pill
| grimages abou5 the city.

Take Two COlOred Men Out of JAN and
Hang Them In Arkansas.
CAMDEN, Ark, July 15.-About 70
o'clock Saturday night, at Hampton,
thirty miles east of here, two negroes
were mobbed by seventy-fve men.
Two weeks ago a white man named
Martin was killed by three negroes.
Two of them were arrested and placed
in jail. A mob gathered several nights
ago, but were persuaded to desist.
Saturday night there was another
gathering, and seventy-five determined
men marched to the jail and demanded
of the sheriff the surrender of the muir
derers. It was useless to resist such a
force with but handful of men to sum-
mon to his aid, so the keys were deliv-
cred to the mob. The culprics were
carried to the neigh boring forest and
hanged to trees. The men were not
masked and made no effort to conceal
their identity. Two years ago a race
riot occurred in Calhoun county. The
negroes greatly outnum Der the whites,
and further trouble is expected.

Results of British Elections, So Far,
Show a Big Victory for the Unionists.
LONDON, July 15.-Sir William Ver-
non Harcourt's defeat in Derby was
the sensation in political cir
cles. 1t was admitted on all
sides that the Liberals are be-
ginning very badly. Of 40 mem
bers thus far elected So are Unionists
10 Liberals and 4 Parnellites. Eight
Liberal seats have been captured by
the Unionists and the Radicals have
captured one Unionist seat, that at
Perth.
The moral effect of Sir William Har-

WINDS QUEER DOINGS
A Violent and Freakish Tornado
Visits a North Dakota Town.
Buildings Are Lifted Up and
Then Set Down.
TAKEN INTO THE AIR.
Woman and Baby Carried Up
and Let Down Unhurt.

GRAFTON, N. D., July 15.-A tornado
at O'Donnellson, six miles northeast of
here, was reported at 4:45 o'clock yes
terday afternoon. It was about three
rods wide. At a school house near by
people were at church and heard it
coming. It first struck large ma
chinery shed, lifted that up, turned it
completely around and dropped it five
rods away in grove. It was full of
machinery, which was twisted out of
shape. Turning, it took the windmill
off of barn and twisted the barn. 1t
then struck the house, five rods away.
The house was a large, square, two
story frame building, on a brick
foundation. It lifted this house in
the air, whirled it around and,
striking on a corner, it went into
a thousand pieces. There were five
persons in the house. Mrs. Nelson
was sitting on the porch with baby
in her arms. When in the air she
dropped the baby and it was carried
thirty feet. Both were uninjured. A
12-year-old girl named Peters was
badly hurt. Her leg was broken and
she was injured internally. She is not
expected to live. The hired man was
carried 800 feet and dropped in a
SIONOs Wu0Ec 1OE d CAuAC AC AOn1AAOO
unconscious. He is badly hurt, but
will recover. The servant girl was
badly hurt about the feet and back
Everything in the house was smashed
into fragments. Mr.. Nelson and sew
eral small children were attending
church in Grafton. Three miles south
east, a farmer named Knudson had
the roof taken off his house, and there
is undoubtedly more damage done.
East of here reports come in that the
grain is badly DAMAGED.

CREDITORS LEFT BEHIND.
Presfdent of ST. Louis Loan Company
Skips Out.


President of ST. Louis Loan Company
skips Out.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, July 15.-President
George J. Porter of the Security Loan
company No. 2, with Offices in the Roe
building, has gone to Chicago, and no
one knows when he viii return. A re-
ceiver for the concern has been ap-
pointed by Judge Woods and an in
junction granted restraining the COM
pany from transacting business. For
the past three weeks the home offices
have been besieged with angry stock
holders and creditors with no one but
women typewriters and President Por-
ter's son to receive them.
H. L. Gray, deputy state superin-
tendeQt of building and loan associa-
tions, has investigated. and as a result
a receiver was appointed. It is charged
by Mr.. Gray that the funds have been
misappropriated and misapplied.
Porter has gone to Chicago" said
Mr.. Gray, land I have not the slight
est idea that he will ever return. If
he does, he stands very good chance
of having to answer for violating the
laws governing such concerns. When
the last report was made by this com
pany to the bureau of labor statistics
it showed over Sos, 900 assets. I have
reason to believe that the assets did
not reach that figure by many thous-
ands, and know that they amount to
practically nothing now.''
The company has had agents all
over the state, operating chiefly in
towns and villages, although stock
was extensively sold in ST. Louis, Mo-
berly and Kansas City. Mr.. Gray
states that some $50, 900 worth of stock
has been distributed.

MUST PREVENT IT.
Opinion of Texas Attorney
General on Prize Fighting.
Under the Present Law it Can
not Take Place.
PROSECUTORS DUTY.
He Must Look to It That Law is
Enforced.

AUSTIN, Texas, July 15.-Attorney
General Crane has given out his opin-
ion in the Corbett- Fitzsimmons fight
case, at Dallas The opinion was in
reply to an inquiry from the Dallas
county attorneys as to whether the
law enacted in 1891 prohibiting prize
fighting was valid and operative. The
attorney general, in his opinion, holds
that the law of 1891 was and still is
operative. The attorney general con-
tends that according to the cOnten-
ton of those who believe that the
statute against prize fighting is void
on account of its declaration that the
crime is a felony and the punishment
of a misdemeanor is applied thereto,
the statute would be perfect if the
word misdemeanor could be subst1-
tuted for the word felony.
Following the doctrine announced
in one of our court decisions, namely,
That the intention frequently con-
trolls the express language in the con-
struction of statutes the court was at
perfect liberty to eliminate that word
felony, if such elimination were neces-
sary to give effect to the legislative
enactment. It must be plain that the
court belived that the intention of the
legislature WAS 10 pEOu4O1I PE4ZO HSA
ing. If the court further believed
that the fact that the legislature
affixed the punishment of INSIDE
meanor to the offense of prize fighting
and the word felony was inserted by
mistake, it was at perfect liberty to
disregard that word in the cOnstruc-
ton of the statute
Further, the validity of the act in
question is not affected by the revision
of the code. The civil code passed the
legislature before the penal code did,
and not afterwards. But, nOtwith-
standing all assertions to the contrary,
by reference to the new revised code it
will be seen that it specifically states
all laws EN- bodied in the revised stat
utes which were in existence at the
time of its adoption should be cOnsid-
cred to be continuation and not as
new enactments.
''This law being valid, it is the duty
of the sheriff of Dallas county to see
that it is enforced. He has the author
ity and we will look to him to see that
the law is enforced

The Minister to Hawaii Checks Joseph
Cooks Fourth of July Grafton.
VICTORIA, B. c., July 15.-According
to advices from Honolulu, United
States Minister Willis presided at the
Fourth of July celebration on the con-
dition that the celebration should be
exclusively American and that no Ha-
waiian politics would be introduced.
This was agreed to. Rev. Joseph Cook
of Boston, was one of the speakers and
discussed the present political situa-
ton in Hawaii. He specially COM
mended the absence of caste or race
distinction in Hawaiian politics;
strongly reprobated those elements in
Southern politics and employed a tone
of Northern superiority to the South.
He insisted on the necessity of New
England principles dominating in Ha-
wall, and urged all citizens to vote.
He expressed regret that many had re-
Trained from doing so by experimenting
unfavOrable consequences from the
hostility of the Washington admins
tration.
Mr.. Willis had remained silent up to
this point, but the unfavorable allusion
to the administration which he repre-
sented brought him to his feet and he
administered severe reprimand to DR..
Cook, declaring that his whole address
was out of place and that he could not
be allowed to conclude. Mr.. Willis
was vigorously applauded. DR.. Cook
protested against this treatment He
said with much emphasis that he was
not accustomed to be put into a
straight jacket nor to be gagged. He
then proceeded for only a few minutes,
dealing mainly in generalities. Gen
eral opinion justifes Minister Willis.
Had he made no protest he might have
been liable to Official censure.
