The Columbus Commercial bears
down hard on tho State University and
the town of Oxford this week. Some
drummer told its editor that whisl1ey
was sold there in barrels lots. That is
probably true, but it is no less true of
nearly every other town or city in the
state. In fact, we do not believe there
Is a railroad city, town or village in the

The Business Mems League Of st.
Louis are afraid the great disaster that
fell upon that city will injure its trade.
and they have issued statement that
che first reports sent out were greatly
exaggerated They say the cyclone was
confined to a narrow strip across Mill
Greek Wiley and that the principal bus Z
mess portion of the city was not injured.
Maybe ST. Iohis can stand loss of
S25 900 900 and not feel it much. We
have a private letter from friend
there which says that the accounts in
the papers give but faint idea of the
ruin and desolation in some parts of the
city II is true that st, Louis is a
great city, rms fifteen miles up and
down tue Missis sippi river, and is about
seven miles wide The cyclone came
from the west and made a swaith
through the city about seven miles long
and from two blocks to a half mile wide.
Considering the density Of the popula-
tion the death rate was not very large.
In the Cyclone a few days before in
Iowa and Wisconsin the loss of life was
greater, comparatively, but as they
were insignificant towns, we don Z hear
of any thousand dollar contributions for
their relief from prominent people who
wish to advertise their acts Of charity
Apropos of this the st. Louis Republic
says East st. Louis is still in need of
help. The charitably inclined who
were SO quick TO offer assistance to the
big city on the Missouri side. have an
abundant opportunity to prove their
philanthropy by making generous con
tributions to East ST. Louis

Adown the years see face,
A baby boys bright face,
Enwreathed with curls of fiaxen hair
Arranged in careless grace,
Adown the years see face,
A baby girl s bright face,
Unframed with curls of raven hue
Around her brow in careless grace.
A little nearer comes the view,
A child is waiting by the gate,
A boyish fervor lights his face
For cometh now his fair classmate.
Swift years pass on--their paths diverge,
Each face is grown maturer now
And more of life s solemnity
Is engraved on each one brow.
In crowded church again see
Each fond, familiar face;
Both are beautiful and noble,
But cold, alas in death 8 embrace.

ARTIFICIAL FLIGHT.

Gently made public, describes the sue
cessful experiments, which were carried
out near Occoquan, Va, on May 9, as
follows:

a very remarkable experiment with Prof.

river. Indeed it seemed to me that the
experiment was of such historical impor
tance that it should be made public.
should not feel Mt liberty to give
an account of all the details, but the
main facts have Prof. Langley's con
sent for giving you, and they are as fol
lows
The aerodrome, or flying machine,
in question was of steel, driven by a
steam engine 1t resembled an enor
nous bird, soaring in the air with ex :
treme regularity in large curves, sweep
ing steadily upward in spiral path, the
spirals with diameter of perhaps 100
yards, until it reached a height of about
100 feet in the air, at the end of course
Of about half mile, when the steam
gave out and the propellers which had
moved it stopped.
Then, to my further surprise, the
whole, instead Of tumbling down, set
tied ais slowly and gracefully as it is pos
sible for any bird to do, touched the wa
ter without any damage and was imme-
diately picked out and ready-to be tried
again.
Il second trial was like the first, ex-
cept that the machine went in differ
ent direction, moving in one continuous
gentle ascent as it swung around in cir
cles like great soaring bird At one
time it seemed to be in danger, as its
course carried it over neighborine
wooded promontory, but apprehension
was Immediately allayed as it passed
twenty five or thirty feet above the tops
of the highest trees there, and ascending
still further, its steam finally give out
again, and it settled into the waters Of
the river, not quite quarter of mile
from the point ut which it arose.
No one could have witnessed these
experiments without being fully con
vinced that the practicability of mechan-
ical fight had been demonstrated.
