A FEATHERED MONSTER.
Strange and Gigantic Bird Killed
by a Man In West Virginia.

CHARLESTON, w. ", May 81
Mr.. Elias Nudkoff, of Hamilton,
has prop ,sed to the State histori-
cal and antiquarian society that if 1T
would send a taxidermist to Hamlin
the society could secure a monster bird,
of a. kind never seen before by any one
in West Virginia. The feathered mon
ster is described by Mr.. Midkoff, from
measurements taken by himself and w.
w. Adkins, of Hamlin, who killed the
bird at the mouth of Vannatters creek,
with five bullets from his rife, while
hunting deer on Monday. The bird Is Z
feet inches from tip to tip, 4 feet from
tip Of bill to tip of tail, fiat bill inches
long and inches wide, somewhat
similar to that of duck; web feet,
covering nearly square foot Of area
each; neck 10 inches long, and about
IL inches through below the feathers;
plumage dark brown, relieved on the
wings and breast by light blue shad-
ing. The bird when first see& was cir
cling high in the air, but came down
very quickly and alighted in the water,
where Adkins got a good shot at 1t,
Gripping it's wing. Adkins attempted
to capture the strange fowl alive, but
it was so vicious that he could not get
near it without killing it, which requir-
ed five bullets.

Silver Leader Issues Another Ad-
dress to His Followers.
WASHINGTON, May 31.-The National Sill
yer party, through it's chairman, j. j. Mott, to-
day issued from It's headquarters In this city
an address to the friends of silver. This ad-
dress recites that since the founding of the
National Silver party on January 22 last the
work of organization has been steadily but
quietly pursued and the country aroused to
pitch of excitement unknown since the Civil
War. 1t declares that the secret of success in
the pending conflict consists in lining up for
the battle, and that the convention of the party
to be held in st. Louis on July % will un-
doubtedy be one of the most important con-
ventions% and notable gatherings ever assem-
bled in this country. Upon the wisdom OF
its acts and that of the Peoples party con-
vention to be held at the same place and
time, depends, the address declares, "the
vital question, as to whether we can have
just settlement of this money issue in our
generation"
The friends of the party are urged to push
the work of organization with all possible
vigor, the purpose being to unite for action all
believers in the restoration Of free silver and
prosperity"
The address concludes as follows: "The Re-
publican party is committed to the gold STAN
dard through the platform of so per cent of
the state conventions, and any stradde that
may be made In it's national platform will de-
ceive no one.
The Democratic party must not expect the
country to accept any candidate it may name
acquiesced in by the gold wing Of that party.
1.-THE question of vital Importance Is for
silver men to name candidate for president
whose nomination will be readily acquiesced
in by all believers in monetary reform.
Friends Of silver, look to your interests
and organize now while the fruit is ripe for
plucking. Do not wait on the problematcal
action of any party"

musical part, some other very important

The most important business Ito come up

MORBID THRoNG CAFES.
Thousands of Excursionists Visit the
st. Louis Ruins.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, May 31.-Every railroad
entering this storm-stricken city ran ex-
cursion trains today They brought scores
Of thousands of people to view the deyas-
tation and ruin wrought by the awful storm
of Wednesday. The streets OF the ruined
district were thronged with visitors all day.
They came from almost every town and city
within radius of 300 miles, and nearly
all day a drizzling rain fell. Lowering,
threatening clouds covered, the sky, and
more dismal scene than the ruined portion Of
this city presented could scarcely be imag-
ined and through the crowded streets, all
day long, came funeral professions. Nearly
one hundred burial permits were issued by
the health department yesterday. and every
hearse in the city was in constant use today
carrying the victims Of the storm to their
graves.
At early dawn people began to crowd into
the city morgue. Many came in search Of
friends, but for the most part, the people
who visited tina charnal house were drawn
by a morbid desire to see the mangled
corpses of the unfortunate victims of the
tornado. All day long the officers on duty
were busy keeping the people moving in
line and out of the viewing room OF the
morgue. Every few minutes some one woud
think they had discovered some one whom
they knew among the bodies exposed for
view.
Superintendent Mack, Of the morgue. had
a trying time answering questions in regard
to the bodies and taking names and descrip-
tions of persons who have not been seen by
their friends since the storm. There were
people there from points In all directions,
far and near-Chieago, Cincinnati, Louis
vile, indianapolis, Kansas City and thous-
and smaller places were represented. From
each town came anxious people inquiring
for lost friends.
Although four days have come and gone
since the tornado the labor Of the city officials
in clearing away the debris is scarcely per-
ceptible. The city at night goes without
street lamps either gas electric. The only
light afforded is that furnished by private
electric plants and the principal streets are In
darkness The street railway companies have
had hundreds Of men at work, and today
nearly all the principal lines were in operation.
The telephone service is practically paralyzed.
although the telephone company has had hun
dreds of men at work repairing the wires.
Hundreds Of demolished buildings have not
been touched; no one can tell II the ruins
conceal the bodies of victims Of the storm.
In many localities foul stencil arises from
the ruins. Whether this is due to the fact
that the ruins conceal human bodies or dead
animals time alone can tell. The work OF
searching in the ruins Of the old city hos
pital for victims of the storm begun today with
force of laborers.

Anti-Admi1.istratio Ahead in
Hamilton County. Ohio.

county, OnlOs
CINCINNATI, o., May 31.-There is much
comment here over the reorganization last
night of the Hamilton county Democratic
committee. Chairman Linneman is gold
standard man, friend of Cleveland, Car
Isle and Attorney General Harmon. A es5lu-
tion was adopted appointing James S. Myers
Thomas Noctor, John Juelg, Henry Janson and
John Sheehan, all silver men, to make the ap-
portionment of wards and townships for dele
gates to the Democratic state convention to
be held at Columbus, June 20. AS this ap-
portionment has always been fixed by the
chairman, Mr.. Zimmerman announced before
the vote was taken if the resolution were
adopted he would resign. The resolution car
ried, 26 to IL, and Linneman resigned. Vice
Chairman Heating was put in his place. This
is accepted as an indication that the two
congressional districts in Hamilton county,
which have eighty five votes in the state con-
vention, will send free silver delegates to the
Columbus convention favorable to John R.
Mclean and other anti-administration Dem
ocrats for delegates at large Rural dis
tricts have been instructing for free silver and
this county was considered the stronghold of
the gold standard Democrats.
