A HURRICANE AT HOME.

A Terrific Wind Storm Tuesday Aroused
Fears of Cyclone.
A cold wave made its appearance sud
denly Tuesday forenoon and soon drove
the early straw hat and spring clothing
to cover.
At noon raging gale, accompanied
by a driving rain, was prevailing which
threatened at times to play havoc with
buildings. The awning and east gable
Of Miss Kings millinery establishment
we're torn away by the wind. Several
outbuilding about town also suffered
The telegraph lines west we're down
and all communication along the Rock
Island cut off.
The velocity of the wind was fully 80
miles an hour and many people feared
the storm might terminate in a tornado
like that which devastated Clay county
Saturday night. Sherman county, how
ever, is not in the cyclone belt, and
whiles strong winds may be experienced,
there is no cause to fear cyclones.

HDgTFITER IN THE Tolls.
Held in Chicago for the Arrival Of the shsr.
man County Sheriff
The Ex-Cashier Of the Exchange Bank to
he Brought Back TO Answer for
His Actions.

Wallace Filler, a heavy depOsitor in
the defunct Exchange bank, on Monday
swore out complaint against A. ". Hos
letter, charging him with embezzling
funds from and lootipg the institution.
Hostetter was located in Chicago and
telegram to the police authorizes Of
that city accomplished his arrest and
detention until Sheriff Dustin can ar
rive and take him in charge. Mr., Dus-
tin left Wednesday afternoon for To-
peka TO secure the necessary papers for
aFequisition upon the governor of Ill
linois, and will go from there direct to
Chicago for his prisoner.
Information from Chicago states that
Hostetter will fight the requisitiOn by
habeas corpus proceedings.
Amos Hostetter was cashier of the
Exchange bank of this city for several
years and became its president in 1893.
OF a sociabie disposition hemade many
friends and acquired longings to be-
come bigh-roller. He dabbled some
in stocks, bought fast horses, fast dogs,
played poker and faro bank, and rolled
the bones for stakes that would make
Pat Sheedy's eyes stick out. He some
times won, but more often lost. There
could be but one result.
December 6, 1894, the bank closed its
doors. Investigation brought out the
fact that HOstetter and some of the
funds were gone. 1t was also found
that the institution was badly wrecked.
It was alleged that the unfortunate
condition Of the bank was due to Hos
tetters's mismanagement.
The bank reopened in February, 1895,
but in December of the same year
again closed its doors. The creditors
now find themselyesin a worse fix than
ever, with no prospects of receiving
anything from the assets.

Conner Davies, who runs an egg trade
on the side, says in the Republic City
News: "This is a good time to plant
your hens. Men and brethren, it was
the hens that brought US through the
devastation caused by the hell-roaring
hot winds Of the last two years. If
Kansas ever has a state flag or a state
postage stamp, as has been recently
suggested by the pOstoffice department,
it should show a rooster rampant on
the dexter chief point, a hen PEASANT,
sinister, sneaking under the barn to
lay an egg, and a basket of eggs in a
field argent. We may not be just right
in the use Of these heraldic terms, but
we know something about the Kansas
hen. We are used to saying corn is
king, but we want to add another
maxim'-the Kansas hen is a queen.
See to it that there is enough of them
for future emergencies"

AN ANGELIC HUSBAND.

There are husbands who are pretty,
There are husbands who are witty,
There are husbands who in public are as smiling
as the morn;
There are husbands who are healthy,
There are husbands who are wealthy,
But the real angelic husband-weIl, he's never
yet been born,
Some for strength of love are noted,
Who are really so devoted
That whene'er their wives are absent they are
lonesome and forloTn;
And now and then You'll find one
Who's a fairly good and kind one,
Yet the real angelic husbaud-Oh, he's never yet
been born.
So the woman who is mated
To a man who is rated
As pretty fair should cherish him for ever
and a day;
For the real angelic creature,
Perfect, quite in every feature
He has never been discovered, and he won't be-

Mrs. Anthony Crisp, an old colored
woman in Fort Scott, Kan, on whose
premises in that city pure coal oil was
discovered, has begun to develop the
find in her own peculiar way. The oil
was found in a deserted pit from which
coal had been taken, and the old lady
skins it off a pool of water at the bot
tom Of the pit and strains it through
flannel cloth. She gets about five gal
Ions a day in this way, which she sells
for 10 cents per gallon. She thinks she
is becOminga serious competitor to the
Standard Oil company. The source Of
the flow of oil is a mystery, as is also
its exceptionally pure quality.

What sort of a town is Oakley? This
week a convention met there. The
