The assault alleged to have
been committed on Lou Bell, a
maniac inmate of the county Jail
annex, an account of which
appeared in the BANNER Thurs

an affidavit charging rape, filed
by Jailor J. M. Ward. Deputy
Sheriff league and Constable
r. H. Burch served the writ.

The Eclipse.

The second and last annular
eclipse for the year 1897 was
pulled off on schedule time Thurs
day morning. 1t lasted some
three hours and caused much
smoking of glass, much straining
and squirting of eyes. The day
was especially fine for observa-
tons, not a cloud in sight, and
those interested in the matter
were furnished an excellent op-
portunity for indulging their
astronomical propensities. The
shadow Of the moon dimmed the
sunshine considerably, but did
very little toward lessening the
heat.

It is said that a woman preacher

1t is said that a woman preacher
in an eastern church, during the
delivery of a strong sermon on
purity, suddenly drew back the
hymn book and said she would
hit the man that was untrue to
his wife, and as the story goes,
every man on the front pews
lodged. Was this a confession
of guilt? Certainly not. Those
men were perfectly aware of the
reckless uncertainty with which
a woman throws a rock.

HIS CRAZY cONSoRT.
A White Citizen of Brennan Caught in
Compromising Situation With a
Demented NegTeSS.

When Jailer Ward assembled
the stairs Wednesday morn
inc as custodian of a smoking
breakfast for the unfortunate in
mates of the county Jail he was
informed by Chas. Kugadt that a
white man was entering the
"crazy house. which is located
in the back yard of the jail.
The apartment in which the
man was seen to disappear is &C.
cupied by a demented negro wo-
man, who has been in confine-
ment several months awaiting
room at the State asylums. One
favorite freak of "crazy Louis"
is to divest herself of every
shred of clothing. In summer
time especially she delights in
the "all together" and in posing
as bronze statuary. Several
suits of wearing apparel have
been furnished her from time to
time, but of these she has made
carpet rags and furniture orna-
ments.
The Washington county mad
house has already been described
in the BANNER. The door to
the apartment occupied by
"crazy Lou" depends for fasten-
ing on a broken horse shoe which
drops into a socket from the
outside. The citizen whom Kugadt
saw had been laying in wait for
some time. When the breakfast
bell at the Jail rang he deemed
it a favorable time for paying
"crazy LOU a morning call.
From his familiarity with the
surroundings the man had evil
IDENTIFY been there oft before
on a similar errand. Those
watching from the Jail window
saw him remove the horse shoe
fastening, boldly enter the door
and close it after him. The jailer
quietly slipped up to the door,
dropped the horse shoe fastening
in place and the man was a
prisoner with his dusky and de-
mented paramour.
Caught like a rat in a trap the
man began to implore the jailer
to set him at liberty. He begged
entreated, implored, remon-
strated but all to no purpose.
The jailer was obdurately OBJ
stinate. Finally the unusual
commotion attracted the atten-
ton of Deputy Sheriff R. M.
league, and that official, out of
sympathy for the mans family,
allowed him to depart.
The crime alleged to have been
committed is4 defined by the
statutes providing punishment for
rape, and the man should either
be prosecuted to the fullest ex-
tent of the law, or else be given a
coat of tar and feathers and rid
den out of town on a rail.

STORM AFTERMATH.
Wind and Lightning Played Hide and
Seek in Washington County
Tuesday Night.

Tuesday Night.
The wind and lightning ac-
comparing the rain storm Tues
day night was distributed over a
considerable portion of the
county. Watrousville suffered
more severely than any other
section of the city. Five resi-
dences and the school building
were blown from their blocks in
that vicinity. Several other
houses in different portions of
the city were blown from their
blocks or unroofed. The damage
is not very severe in any of the
cases reported. The lightning
played second fiddle to the wind
in destructive propensities. A
dozen or more building that were
struck have been reported and
the returns are not all in yet.
AS was the case with the wind
the damage resulting is very
slight.
The Electric Light Company
are much the heaviest losers
from this source. The plant
seemed to be storm center for
the heavenly bolts Of fire which
punctured the atmosphere in
every direction. At nine O'Clock
the plant was compelled to shut
down on account of the destruc-
ton of a quantity of betting.
Electrician Eddy says their
lightning arresters were kept in a
continual blaze and that the
cracking of the electricity was
like the discharge of fireworks.
Every wire in the city is believed
to have been more or less
damaged. New betting has been
ordered from Houston and the
damage will be repaired at the
earliest possible moment.
The residence of W. A. Stuck
ert was struck by a bolt of light
ming and a hole knocked in the
roof.
The sky light at Schmid Bros.
was turned over by bolt which
followed up an electric wire,
marking its progress by scorch-
ing the ceiling.
Two miles southeast of the city
Henry Saunders barn was
struck and one of his COWS
killed.
Another bolt carried away a
chimney and demolished a light
ming rod for DR.. W. A. Lockett.
The deadliest bolt so far re-
ported killed three Jersey COWS
for Mr.. T. A. Low.
Electric light, telephone and
telegraph poles were shattered in
several localities.
The wind helped itself to Hon.
D. c. Giddings' grape arbor
and carried off flue from his
residence. A vacant house on
his place two miles west of the
city was blown away.
Several trees were uprooted at
Prairie Hill and Gay Hill.
The wind storm seems to have
been more severe at Indepen-
dence than at any other point in
the county. A great deal of
damage was done to fences. The
roof of Rev. Woods residence
was blown off. A buggy belong
ing to Mr.. Shepard Clay stand
ing in the street was totally
wrecked. A carriage house on
Mr.. j. W. Farmers place was
blown down and the vehicle
smashed. Pages store was un-
rooted and considerable damage
