Such assuring observations hastened
the period OF conscious acknowledge
ment that the brakes were off. Our ele-
waited friend blushed little as he con-
fessed to himself that he was "in the
chutes," and that he liked 1t. It was
not his habit. He never handled horses
that way, and he could not now quite
free himself from reproach for having
dropped the lines. But he laughed, nev-
ertheless, and enjoyed the joke on him
self, along with some other enjoyment.
His craft, however, did not wholly
forsake him. He did not forthwith be-
come the object Of general suspicion.
Tho girl herself may have caught lock,
once or twice, that seemed to bring him
rather forcibly under her serious at
tention, but he rolled his oranges with
as light hand as ever and exchanged
about the usual run Of chatting with the
men who dumped into his hopper, the
manager, and all chance corners.
All the while the fingers Of the new
packer were dancing under his eye, and
every orange that was wrapped and
slowed away by their deft pressure was
brighter by the reflection Of his senti-
ment. and he felt, every time, as II he
were being taken possession Of and laid
away in the treasury that her strong
sweet life was gathering.
1t was getting to be time for astute

amount to about $685. 900 was done, but
no loss of life has been so far reported.
Appearing in tho southwest, the
cloud looked like n roll of smoke. Ris-

moved to the northwest, carrying every.
thing in its path, including live stock,
sheds and small houses, which were
smashed and torn in the storms fury.
1t disappeared in the northwest and
spod over into Platte county, where the
sparsely.populated section may have
been severely damaged.
Tho cloud seemed to strike first ut A..
j. McKelvoy's place, where it blew
down the buildings and demolished the
outlying sheds. Forty head of cattle
were carried II distance of ut least 40
rods by tho blast.

When Visit to the Cruiser Is Made.
WASHINGTON, April 27.-Captain
Coghlan will be in command of the
Raleigh when President Mckinley pays
his visit of state to the cruiser at Phila.
delphia next Friday. 1t has been deter
mined that prior to the ceremonial visit,
If at all, no change shall be made in the
command as a result Of the u%tterances
of Captain Coghlan. The president
takes the ground that it would be an
unkind and unwarranted reflection on
the officers and crew of the ship to alb
stain from paying the visit which has
been arranged for and occupies a prom
inent place on the program.
AS to the future course of the navy
department with respect to Captain
Coghlan, it is believed that the admin

letter from Secretary Long will suffice
to meet the needs of the case, particu-
