OMAHA, NEBR., Aug. 15.-This city was
tonight treated to a miniature cyclone,
which played havoc with wlndow-hghts,
broke down shade trees and demolished
fences, chimneys and outbuildings. The
clouds gathered in the northeast little
before o'clock, and swept down upon the
city with very little warning. Almost
two inches of rain fell in half an an hour,
and the downpour was accom- panied by
hail. The wind-gauge at the weather sta
ton showed velocity of fifty-six miles
an hour,
Every building in the business portion
having a north exposure suffered from
the violence of the tempest. The Cotton
ice-house al East Omaha was entirely de-
stroyed, and fences and the gran2stand
at the old fair grounds suffered seriously.
At Debolt station, on the Elkhorn road,
the roof was carried away while the oper-
ator was at work. He escaped without in
jury. Lightning struck in several places,
but so far as can be ascertained tonight
no one was killed. The Union Pacific car
shops suffered severely from the hail. The
large skylights are devoid of glass. But
the greatest damage was in the old resi-
dence portion OF the city, where the streets
are lined with stately shade trees. Some
of these thoroughfares are well-nigh i'm
passable, so blockaded are they with limbs
of trees, and in some instances with trees
them selves.

DEADLY DOMESTIC f[UD
A Terrible Tragedy Follows
Family Dissensions in a
Mississippi Town.
Dire Vengeance of a Man Whose
Wifi, He Claims, Had Been Per.
suaded to Leave Him

MEMPHIS, TENN, Aug. ia deplcr-
able domestic tragedy took place on
Thursday night near the little town of
Clarksdale, Miss, seventy six miles south
of this city.
Several years ago q daughter OF ]. NJ.
Howard. living near that place, married
w. P. Woods. For while they lived
harmoniously together, but finally diff
fefences occurred and quarrels became
frequent.
Woods, who had never been regarded
with favor by the Howard family, felt
very bitterly toward his wife, father and
brothers, whom he accused of poisoning
her mind against him, and finally, when a
few weeks ago she left him, he threatened
to be revenged.
Thursday night he went the house of
the HoTards to persuade his wife to re-
turn to him. He was ordered away by one
OF the Howards, who attempted to enforce
his order, when Woods drew pistol and
shot him dead. The noise of the shot
brought other members of the family to
the scene and for few minutes bullets
flew fast. When the fight was ended it
was found that the father, J. M. Howard,
was mortally wounded. One of the sons,
r. L. Howard, was dead. Another son,
VIII, was slightly wounded and Woods
had bullet in his arm. Woods claims to
have acted in self-defense, but there is
very strong feeling against him in the
community.

1t Is alleged that the crisis over the
cnanceIlorship has been removed, in ac-
cordance with the dispatches of last week,
which stated that Prince Hohenlohe
would not retire from the Chancellorship
for some time to come. The National
Aeltung, however, learns that the recent
conferences between the Emperor and
Prince Hohenlohe have not resulted in
such clearing up of political affairs as
would preclude the prospect of a mum ber

their Austrian regiments.
The pictures are intended as presents to

Terrific Storm, Reported IN the Central
Portion of the State.
DES MONIES, Iowa, Aug. 15.-Central
Iowa, in a territory which included fifty
miles In every direction from this city,
was swept by terrific storm this evening.
Tonight wires are down and railroads
under water are washed out in all direc-
tions. The damage cannot be estimated.
One and half inches of rain fell in ten
minutes in this city. At other places it is
reported even heavier. at Stuart, sixty
miles west. high wind blew trees down
and did considerable property damage;
but there was no cyclone, as at first re-
ported. Trees were blown across the rail-
roads and all wires are down.
The Coon, Skunk and Beaver rivers are
all out of their banks, the Coon and Skunk
in places being five miles wide. The
Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul bridge
across the Coon at Dawson was taken out.
The track is under water for miles, and
there are numerous washouts. some of
them half mile. Along the Chicago
and Great Western conditions are even
worse. A train from Kansas City came in
during the storm that had run six miles
Oh q tAdSh tAAos Woo ooOiuCiScos lHS
Wabash train from the south came in after
the storm with a similar report. The
water has washed away an immense
amount of grain in stacks and shocks, and
will add to the ruin of crops that has been
wrought by previous storms. There has
been no report of loss of life thus far.
COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa, Aug. t5.-A
furious windstorm, accompanied by a
deluge of rain and hail, struck here about
o'clock this evening. Considerable dam
age was done, outbuildings. trees and
fences being blown down in many parts of
the city. The hailstones were the largest
seen in this part OF the country for many
years, some of them measuring six inches
in circumference, breaking many win
dows in the northern portion of the city.
Paved and unpaved streets were badly
washed.
DENISON, Iowa, Aug. l5.-ln a heavy
rain and thunder storm lightning struck
the barn of William Goodrich, killing a
team of horses. Ward Cramer was stand
ing within ten feet of the horses and a
horse was in the next stall, but neither
was stunned. A little hail fell, but did
no damage.

Of 100000 has been saved from the evils of
intemperance during the past SIX years.
This will be one of the statements in the
report to be presented next week to the

the ranks, both as cured men and as con-
verts to the cause, of many prominent
men, organizations and newspapers, and
that there has been total absence of dis
sensions IN the ranks of the State and
local leagues throughout the country.
Correspondence received at National head
quarters indicates that, Notwithstanding
the political activity, the convention will
be the largest in the history of the league.

THREE FRIENDS HELD UP.
TIE FTEbusteTng Steamer Is Stopped by a
Revenue Cutter as She Is Leaving
jacksonville, Fla.

JACKSONVILLE, FLA, Aug. 15.-The
steamer Three Friends left Jacksonville
last night presumably on filibustering
trip to Cuba. 1t is said that great guam
tity of munitions was in the hold OF the
vessel covered by coal.
At 3 o'clock this afternoon the Three
Friends reached the mouth of the st.
Johns and tried to cross the bar, but
found the passage barred by the United
States revenue cutter Boutwell,. Captain
Kilgore ordered the Three Friends to come
to and order was obeyed. A lieutenant
was then sent on board the Three Friends.
The suspected filibuster has remained
at the bar in charge of the lieutenant, and
it is not known when she will be released.
The revenue cutter Boutwell, came up to
Jacksonville tonight. Captain Kilgore of
the Boutwell, and Captain N. B. Broward
were at once brought ashore. Captain
Broward was asked if he was under arrest
and he said he was not.
He was then asked where was the Three
Friends and he said: Down the river,
with the mate in charge" Captain Brow
trouble and he emphatically said: 81 have
nothing on board except coal and ship
stores."
On the steamship Seminole, which ar
rived this morning from New York and
Charleston, were twenty-five Cubans, who
boarded the vessel at Charleston and who
were to have been put off at Mayport,
where, it is presumed, they were to make
connection with the Three Friends this
morning.
The stopping of the Three Friends, how
ever, knocked the scheme in the head,
and instead of landing the men the Semi
mole had to bring them up to the city. At
the dock they were met by DR.. Romero
and other Cuban sympathizers and were
taken from the dock to some place in the
city

Eject of Deep Water.

Galveston, Texas, September 20.-The
growth Of the shipping business of the
port of Galveston since the accom-
pllshment of deep water is well Illus
tl1ted by the records at the custom
house. which show that thus far this
month twenty-slX foreign vessels have
entered this port as against ten for the
entire month of September, 1905. The
vessels this year are larger than were
these of lust year, us Indicated by the
tonnage dues paid by the foreign ships,
that is TO say $2l13.9o thus far this
month, rs against $5G274 for the entire
month Of September, 1905.
In 1896 the total receipts of the cus-
tom house. during the month of Scptem.
Der, were S3144.7l; du Ing September,
1894, the receipts were $SS11.G3; during
September, 1891, the custom house le-
ceipts continued to grow and reached
$SS1 1.G3 during September, 1905, they
continued to show an increase, reaching
S10531.66. This increase was un form
and gratifying hut is thrown in the
shade by the receipts thus far during
the month of September, which amount
10 S14,S2l62, an increase of over 400
per cent over the total customs receipts
of the port only three years ago.
There arc now twcn,y-one steamships
