NEWPORT NEWS.


NEWPORT, May 2s.-There was special
session Of the District Court yesterday for
the purpose of trying several OF the mem
bers Of the Brockton basel ball team, who
mad been arrested for assaulting John :.
Tobin, the umpire of the local associa-
tion. The trouble took place at the
Naugatuck, bar room on the Parade,
and 1t was caused over discussion on
the game OF Tuesday. Players Wise and
Noblit Of the Brockton team were fined
SIS and costs each for the assault, which
resulted very disastrously to TobiD, his
face and body being badly bruised.
There was considerable excitement on
the o O'Clock train when 1t arrived In
this city last night. over the fact that a
shot had been fired at the train, and one
OF the passengers barely escaped serious
injury. As the train was within halt
mile of the city one of the passengers
heard crash and something fell in his
lap. Looking down he saw bullet and
some broken glass. The missile probably
came from a gun fired by person on
Coddington Point.
The students Of Brown University made
. special excursion to this city last even,
ing to celebrate the victory of their ball
team over Georgetown yesterday. They
were headed by the college band and
made a parade through the city.
The harbor is beginning to assume a
summer aspect, and the yachts are
putting in an appearances. The steam
yachts Oonqueror and Duquesne were in
the harbor last evening.
Washington Commandery, X. t., made
a street parade last evening, many OF the
mem bers of the General Assembly who
are members of the order joining with
them. An inspection followed.

THE MAYOR'S REFORM FRIENDS.
The kind OF policy game run in this
city by the friends and hackers of the
political aspirations of His Reform Honor
Mayor MCGUINNEss is distinguished
from the ordinary policy by the fact that
the slips of the lottery drawings are
printed in red and green inks, the fore
noon drawing being printed in red and
the afternoon drawing in green. This
red and green feature adds to the interest
OF the game. While the reform Mayor is
delivering silver-tongned speeches on
civic virtue in the Narragansett Hotel,
any innocent citizen may be buttonholed
to listen, the red and green policy gam
BILE gees merrily on and tire Mayor is
doubtless secure In the belief that he will
get his commission therefrom for use in
the next campaign IL he runs again on a
REFORM NON PARTISAN Democratic
ticket. The proposition to reduce the
number OF saloons in this city which are
legally in business, has not yet been fol-
lowed up by any move TO reduce the gam
bling enterprises which started up short
ly after Mayor McGUrsYEss' Inaugural
tion, and which are nourishing today as
never before.
We don't know whether the Mayor has
blocked the chief OF police, but we are
grateful for one .hing-the Mayor or some.

could never have accomplished any real
public service and it is corresponding

The Mayor has monopoly OF the mouth

THE STORMS FURY. T.

Eighty miles an hour is a swift pace.
imagined by recalling how 1t "feels" TO
watch an express train go Ky at speed
of say forty miles an hour. Forty miles
an hour is good deal of a rush. Eighty
miles is hurricane speed.
And, yet, that rate would seem % be
too tame 10 accomplish all the destruc-
tion that is reported from ST. Louis and
vicinity yesterday afternoon. 1t is not
cyclone speed by any means. But the re-
suits OF the blow surpass for horror and
loss OF life and property any calamity
that has visited a community in this
country since the awful Johnstown food.
&Tne cyclones, tornadoes or hurricanes
that have followed one another in quick
succession within the past ten days ap-
pear to have no relation one to the other,
nor have they appeared to break in ac-
cordance with any law or weather scheme
that offers opportunity for prognostica-
tions. The several blows appear to have
been local, rising an disappearing with
in comparatively small areas and we have
been afforded little Information from the
W Gather sharps as TO their reason for be-
OF storms struck Texas and swept through
the Indian Territory, killed 200 persons
and wrecked good deal of property be-
fore 1t spent its fury. Two days later
Kansas and Kentucky were swept by a
like storm and in the nearer Southwest,
though at somewhat widely separated
spots there were unusual blows. On Sun.
day and Monday nights Iowa and Michi-
gan were struck by tornadoes that did
tremendous damage, but by yesterday
these had slipped away and sailed harm
lessly down the st. Lawrence Valley,
leaving only "cool wave" in their track.
While the northern-central section
wan enjoying this cool wave, day
before yesterday, the Southwest was suf-
| fering from an unusual hot wave, 100 de-
| grees in the shade being reported.
| Whether the awful blow that struck that
section last evening may be traced to
this anticIpatory hot wave or to any at.
mospheric conditions produced by the
| wandering tornadoes to the north and
west. or whether all three are related, We
may possibly learn, at least, theoretically.
| The exceptions to weather rules are rat hel
more numerous than the rules themselves
For all the development in weather lore
the cracks appear to be not only power
less to forecast the kind of weather thai
it is of serious Importance that we shoulc
know, but are unable to satisfactorily
explain 1t after it happens.
