A gentleman was visiting a Scotch
lunatic asylum where new premises
were being added The inmates were
assisting. On seeing one Of the latter
wheeling a barrow upside down from
the building to the stones, the visitor
asked him why he wheeled it in that
manner. "Oh, said the lunatic, "that's
the best way" The visitor took the
barrow, and turning it right side up
said, ''This is the proper way. "
"That's a. you KEN" said the inmate

SHERMAN, Tex, Oct. ga we'll do

bottom four miles west of the village of
Pennington and about ten miles west OF
this city, doing great damage. PARTIES
who SAW II at its inception say that out
Of soothing. tumbling mass of inky
clouds funnel shaped column descended
until it touched the earth, and then 1t be-
gan to move northeastward, accompanied
by the usual terrific crash and roar as 1t
tore through the bottoms, uprooting large
trees and demolishing everything In its
path, which for the first mile or two was
80 OF 40 yards in width. The first house
It is known to have struck was on the
George Duke farm, one mile west of Howe
and about i've miles from the starting
point. No one was hurt at this place.
From this point until it struck tho Jim
Farris farm, two miles south OF the city,
distance OF perhaps two miles, 1t Is
known to have risen and descended several
times At the farris place tenant nut
occupied by family named Hayes was
literally torn to pieces and every nom bor

Hayes IS thought to be fatally hurt.
The path of the Stc"m lay at least .
miles east OF the city, but the cloudburst
which accompanied 1t was furious IN the
eastern portion Of the city.
The houses as far down as Cleveland
avenue are mud bespattered, the same as
was the case during the great storm OF
May 10. After tearing down vacant
house east of the Clem Fitch place, on the
Bonham road. about a mile eass of Col

air and went distance Of two miles, wher
1t descended. Several persons are reported

TENNYsoN,s WOMEN.
Tho Poet Never Idenilzed the Work OF q,
Wage Earncr.


Tho Poet Never Idenllzed the Work OF tho
Wage Farmer.
Tennyson gave the world pictures of
some Of the fairest feminine creations
in poetrN-winsome maidens, demure
and trustful; womaniy women, loyal
and companionable; devoted wives, gen-
tie and faithful; noble matrons, loving
and self sacrificing, serving the best in
terests Of home and country.
Tennyson's conception Of woman and
her sphere may be regarded as rather
old fashioned. He was evidently not in
full sympathy with some Of the ad-
vanctd notions of the modern woman.
His burlesque Of woman's rights in
'The Princess" has not hurt the cause
of the weaker sex. He understood the
right relations Of the man and the WON
an, and his utteranoes in the closing
passag ges Of this poem go to the heart Of
the problem. II is still true that wom-
ans chief place and crowning glory IL
90 be queen of the home. There she may
have an unlimited field for usefulness
and exert a fareaching influence foi
good if she but realize her opportunities
and improve them. In the household

No other poet has done more TO glorify
the maternal sentiment on to make the
family relation sacred. Woman's work,
as he conceived it, is not only training
the plastic minds of the young. but
squirting the man to more resolute en-
deavor and grander achievement. Yield
ing to her subtler forces and gentler
agencies. ne aspires to higher plane of
being While accomplishing his man
hood by repressing the baser and cul-
tivating the finer sido of him, she at the
same time works out her own salvation,
humanity speaking, in the truest sense.
In word. it is by loving and being
loved that she reaches the fullest devel-
opment and renders the world tho best

requisition in the case of Senator Hill,
with resonanto result
Very different is the laugh of Gov. Nc
Kinley. The Gamons Protectionist has ~
laugh Of the variety that noyeilSts OF the
old school referred 10 as making the
welkin ring" ut is irresistible in coun-
try community during campaign times.
Suiting as it does the general PERSONAL
ity OF the man, il comes as q tonic TO the
constituent who has Il natural tendency
to melancholy, and is sure TO create a
desire on the part of the voter TO have the
walls Cf the White House ring with the
sound OF such hearty mirth.
Mckinley is not at all sparinS or his
laughter, either. The cares OF office
have not in the least impaired the natural
buoyancy of his spirits, and he is ready
at all times to laugh with those who laugh
and help matters out when there is no
one on hand to keep the spirits of the
company at concert pitch. Mckinley's
laugh was caughtduring theroar oflaughter
that followed tue reception OF particu-
larIy bright joke recently, and is here set
to music that posterity may benefit by
good example of old-faShioned roar. You
easily catch it and then you can't stop
Gov. Mortons laugh is peculiar one.
1t is as different from that OF Mckinley
as is MCKinley's from that of Hill. That
Morton has a keen sense OF humor is evl-
dent to any e-wtIo has been long in his
society, but he does not look so. His is a
low and dignificd laugh that ought 10 be
described as a chuckle, with a rising inflec-

ton at the finish. At is the laugh OF man
who is sure of his ground-cool, confident
and capable of great self-repreSsion. 1t
inspires confidence in Others, if it does not
cause q mirthful echo. 1t is the ideal
laugh for a shrewd and able diplomat, and
as such can be initiated by any embryonic
DIPLOMAT with effect. Here il is in music
for the benefit OF all who wish to take their
first lesson in tue diplomatic laugh.
The laugh of Senator Allison is Il bou-
quet OF musical sounds and hearty in the
extreme. No one enjoys a good story more
than Allison and no one can tell one better
than he. 1t is, of course, the right and
proper thing for a man who tells stories
and expects other men to laugh at them to
cultivate good laugh himself.
AliSon's laughter Is contagious. He gets
laughing and you get laughing. BE can't
stop and you can't stop. You almost die.
If you are sick you get well. People vino are
travelling on a railroad car with Allison
are always forced to look up and smile in
sympathy when the sound rings through the
car. Set to music. il runs ''ho-ho" song.
The laugh offs ecTetary Carlisle would do
for the model ioi the Dick Deadeye laugh
in "Pinafore.'b 1t is as cold and hard as
the dollars in the Treasury, for which he
is responsible. Carlisle laughs when he is
nervous, when You would expect him to
cry. He laughs at beggarS, q cold, hard
| laugh, while hejs getting the pennies out OF
| his pockets. 1t could be construed to be
a eynicallaugh or even a reproa chful laugh,
| but it could not by any stretch OF the
| imagination heicailed a merry laugh. Yet
| 1t is a good laugh.
| If a dignified laugh is wanted for any

| of dignity. Carlisle, aroused to mirth al
