The tornado laid waste track about
two hundred yards wide and ten miles long.
The funnel-shaped cloud made its first ap-
pearance about twelve miles west of here,
where 1t swept to the ground and i'm
mediatey arose and struck six miles fur
ther east and began it's work of destruc-
ton. Thousands of dollars worth of
property was destroyed. The barn on the
Funda farm was the first to suffer. j. c.
Owens fine residence barn and granaries
were leveed. Charles Howard, boy, was
going from his fathers barn to the house
when the wind struck him. He caught
hold of a large rock and escaped being
carried away. The Woodbury. schoolhouse
was demolished. Charles Severins fine
farm property was all destroyed. His skull
was badly fractured and it is feared he
cannot live. William Stipe's farm build
ings were picked up and smashed into
kindling wood The entire family got into
the cellar before the storm struck. Mrs.
Stipe, however was badly injured. Mrs,
Berg's new house was next destroyed. At

TURPIE,s AMENDMENT.
Democrats VIII Attempt to Add an
Inheritance Tax to the Tariff Bill.

WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE Demo-
cratic members of the Senate committee on
finance to-day agreed to offer as an
amendment to the tariff bill provision for
an Inheritance tax The amendment was
prepared by Senator Turpie, and was by
him presented to the Senate on behalf of
the Democratic minority. The principal
provision of the amendment IS as follows:
THAT on and after the first day of Janu-
afy 1898 and for five years thereafter
there shall be laid and levied a sum equal
to per cent of the value of every de-
cedents estate as an inheritance tax
whether it is testate or intestate, to be
paid by the executors, administrators and
trustees thereof or by the heirs or by the
distributes. devisees or legatees, when the
value of such estate as an inheritance is
$4,000 and upwards except where legacies
or bequests are made to religious, charita-
BILE. educational or other organizations
which may by the laws of the State, FER
ritory or District in which the decedent
was residing at the time of his death be
exempt from taxation.
Other provisions of the amendment pre-
scribe methods of ascertaining the value of
estates and of collecting the tax. These
duties are imposed on internal revenue col
lectors who are authorized to bring suit
in the federal courts to collect the tax in
case such proceeding is made necessary.
The secretary of the treasury is empow-
cred to make rules and regulations for
carrying the provision into effect.

possible point. About II o'clock the ap-
partition appeared near where Samuel Will
son was standing, and almost instantly it
sank to the ground. Wilson threw himself
upon the figure, striking it wherever he
could with a club which he had for the
occasion Loud cries came from the sup
posed ghost and when an examination was
made it was found that he was none other
than Frank Johnson, Wilson'S nearest
neighbor, whereupon the posse tied him to
a sapling and under switches made him ex-
plain why he had for the last year ter
rorized the community. He said that he
had been trying to buy Williamsons farm
which adjoins his. and by using the ghost
scheme thought he could scare him into
selling at a sacrifice. After this explana-
ton he was given twenty lashes and

BY TWO MAJORITY.
Amendment to the Sugar Schedule
Adopted by the senate.

AdOpted by the Senate.
WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE first test
vote on the sugar schedule was taken in
the Senate late to-day, resulting in the
adoption of the Republican caucus amend
ment changing the House rate to 195 cents
per pound by the close vote of 30 to 80. The
affirmative vote was made up Of twenty
nine Republicans one Democrat (McEnery,
of Louisiana), one silver Republican Zones,
of Nevada) and one Populist (Stewart, of
Nevada) The negative vote was made up
Of twenty-five Democrats, three Populists
and two silver Republicans. 1t was the
closest vote thus far taken on an issue of
importance and was accepted as showing
that any amendment having the sanction of
the caucus was assured of adoption. The
vote was taken after day spent in speech
es on the effect of the sugar schedule. The
main speech of the day came from Mr.. Alli-
son. in charge OF the bill, and was in the
nature of an answer to the charges made
against the sugar schedule as a whole and a
defense to it, Mr.. German spoke against
the schedule and the entire bill, pointing
out that it's effect was to burden the peo-
pie without opening up to new foreign
markets. Mr.. White reviewed the records
of Republican senators on the sugar sched-
ule during the debate on the Wilson BILL
arraigning them for Inconsistency. Mr.
Caffery and Mr.. Stewart also spoke, the
former against and the latter for the pend
ing schedule after which the vote was
taken. The first paragraph of the sugar
schedule was not finally disposed of up to
the time of adjournment.
Mr.. Jones, of Arkansas, began the dis
cussion on the sugar schedule at 12:15 p. m.
by placing in the record a sta tement of a
sugar expert, showing the price of each
grade Of sugar the rate of taxation on
each under the Wilson act and under the
proposed schedules.

the finance committee, gave notice of
