Raiders" and aThe Stickit Minister" :"
He is Scotchman, and his stories
are mainly sketches of Scottish life
drawn from characters familiar to
the author. His father died when the
novelist was but child. and he was
brought up by his grandparents, the
strlctest of Cameronians, who con.
sidered the works of Shakespeare and
Scott very wicked. He did not agree
with them, however, and read their
"wicked" books on the sly. They
were poor and his education was &C.
cured only by his own efforts. By
teaching and writing he worked his
way through college, graduating from
Edinburgh university and Oxford, and
taking degrees Mt Heidelberg and
Neufachtel. For some time lie was a
clergyman, preaching at Penicuik.
His first book was one Of poems. The
demand for his work increased so
rapidly that he ceased his ministerial
work and devotes himself entirely to
literature.

Wichita, Kan, May ga special
from Haistead, Kan. says: About
4:O q fearful cyclone devastated a
strip or country several hundred yards
Wide ana at least sixteen miles In
length. killing six persons outright
and seriously injuring several others,
while many have received slight In
jurles. The cyclone struck the house
Of Mrs. Frye. = widow lady, who lived
aOout nine miles southwest Of Hal
stead. completely destroying It and
slightly intnring Mrs. Frye. It picked
up the house OF John Schultzback
and scattered It In. every direction.
The two-story house OF Joseph Weir
was entirely swept away, killing Mrs.
Joseph Weir. Grace Weir, aged elev-
en-; Herman Weir, aged five, and q
five-weeks-old baby. Mr.. Weir had
previously left the house and when
the cyclone struck was about fifty
yards away. He clung to a tree, but
was badly injured by flying debris
aud will die. Joseph Weir, Jr.;. and
sister Maud Weir, the only ones In
tho family who took to the cellar,
escaped with only slight bruises.
The house Of e. G. Caldwell, which
was 100 yards west of the Weir
EOuse was unrOofed qI d one side torn
away. The family escaped by taking
to the cellar.
The next house In the path Of the
storm was william Armstrong;,
which was completely wiped from the
face Of the earth. Mr.. Armstrong was
killed, Mrs. Armstrong was seriously.
and perhaps fatally, injured. and
Grandma Chaplin, who was there sick
in bed, was killed.
About 100 yeards east of the Arm
strong house the large, two-story resi-
dence Of b. e. Frizzle was picked up.
as was also q large two.story house
OF j. Il. Frizzle across the road, and
oil the occupants were injured.
The fury OF the storm seemed to
have done its worst about five miles
west of Halstead, where all six Of the
persons were killed. Near the Friz-
zle home dead cattle, horses, hogs
andchickens are scattered all over
the wheat fields. Those who first saw
the disaster coming say it made very
slow progress, travelling not faster
to waver, first In one direction, then
In another. AS far as heard from,
covering a distance of eighteen miles
across the country from southwest
to northeast, twenty residences, near
II all Of them large ones, were COM
pletely destroyed. The loss will fall
not less than 100000, besides the
six deaths and injured, not less than
two Of whom will probably die. Ply
stcians from Wichita went to the re-
lief and local assistance is given.
Everybody in the track Of the storm
lost everything. Outside aid viii
probably have to be called for.
