In the Morning and Evening".

Man is a queer crop. He stools
out in the morning with a magni;.
icent prospect. and in the revealing he
shrivels up and is blighted. The
morning breeze fans his hope and
courage into definite purpose; the
midday sul puts crimp in his CO..
lar, and the evening dew wrinkles his
crash suit. The tickle goddess OF
fortune greets him in the morning
with a smile, only to deride hun in
the evening by favors withheld.
When he is most positive that he
is sailing the right course, he is lost
in a fog OF doubt, and his hobby
wrecked. Today he prepares to har-
vest belief which tomorrow he dis
cards as not worth cutting. Just as
he squares himself by tip on the
future from the morning shower he
goes up against south wind that
evapOrates his moisture OF hop, rs
rapidly as q broken five dollar bill

"The greatest surprise and dis
couragement Nebraska pOpulists
ever suffered was to learn early in
1897, that the newly installed Off
Gals, clerks and deputies ut the state
house were all, with one exception,
using free passes as regularly
as republicans ever did.
Populists had claimed for many
years that "a pass was bride, and
now they find their own men utterly
hypocritical, spending most OF their
time securing passes and travelling
on free pass iaunts. Not only this,

THE COUNTRY DEVASTATED.
Grent Loss of Life and Property Along the
Colorado River Northwest of
Austin, Tex,

Austin, Tex, June 10. -.Information
from the food-stricken district along
the Colorado river to the northwest of
this city fully confirms former reports
of loss of life and property. All tele-
graph and telephone wires are pros
trated, while great tracts of wheat and
corn have been devastated by the
raging waters. Several people are
known to have persisted and many
more are unaccounted for at present.
The river rose so rapidly at San Saba
that farmers and people living in the
lowlands were unable to make their
escape. II. p. Wells, prominent
farmer, in attempting to rescue his
family lost two daughters and bare
ly succeeded in saving his own
life and that of his wife and one
small child. During the day something
like 100 people who had been swept
away in the first furry of the flood
were rescued There are quite num-
Der unaccounted for, and it may be
they have been drowned. The wheat
crop was swept away by the flood, en-
failing loss of thousands of dollars.
Cattle, horses and hogs were drowned
by the hundreds. From all reports re-
ceived from below San Saba the entire
country has been laid waste and the
loss from the flood is beyond accurate
estimate at this time, though it is
thought to be in the neighborhood of

A NEW EXPERIENCE.
Over the Actions Of the
Trees and Houses.

She is only little black pickaninny who
lives down in Georgia. She is under dozen
years in age and until short time ago had
passed all of her life on rural plantation.
Trains and their attendant movements were
utterly unknown. Indeed, what Phebe Ann
knew of anything outside of that plantation
would not make the beginning of primer.
She was being educated for a house servant
and hence was not permitted to roam to any
great extent. She was busy about the big
house all day and at night retired TO the
shack set apart for her family.
Along in the season, for some good rea-
son, it became necessary for the family to-.
move into a city. The little negro girl was
wanted, for she had much skill in soothing
the childish woes of the heir to the estates.
So it was decided that she must accompany
the expedition. From the time she entered
the carriage to ride to the railway station
Phebe Ann was in state of suppressed ex-
element. She sat beside Miss Amy" as
she called her mistress, and with staring
eyes took in all that passed without COM
ment
When she was taken into the train her
wonderment was amusing. She sat GIN
gerly on the cushions, looked out of the win
dow and generally seemed uncertain con-
corning the possibilities OF the future. She
was silent until the train commenced to
move. Then her fear took shape. She saw
the landscape passing rapidly before her and
her eyes filed, her lip quivered and she
smiled audibly.
whats the matter, Phebe Ann?" asked
her mistress.
ooh, Miss Amy" walled the pickanning,
"whah all dem houses and trees a.goin' at!"
A seat on the floor was the only means
possible to quiet the fears of the child.-Chi-
cage Chronicle.

Miss Bessie MallOy, the 1S-year-old

Pat Malloy are badly hurt. The family
was at supper when the funnel-shaped
cloud was first seen and Dick Malloy
told his parents to go to the cellar He
ran to the home of Mrs. Hassell, II
widow who lives across the road, TO
warn her and her seven children. He
took them TO the cellar and the house
was whirlcd away, injuring no one.
He had TO hold ON to the boy by the
legs as he was being drawn up by the
suction of the wind. But the Malloy
family across the road only remained
in the cellar about five minutes and the
father suggested that the cloud was
only rain. They came up and in an
instant the house was demolished. The
homes of Phil Berger, Joe Jernard and
Patrick O'Neill were all reduced to
lsindling wood. The occupants, it is
reported, all escaped serious injury.

IT WAS A BAD WRECK.
A Kansas city, Plttsburg a Gulf Passenger
Train, Loaded with ExcurslOnlsts, Left
the Track at Grandylew, Mo.

Kansas City, Mo-, June 10. With n
driving rainstorm, accompanied by
deep peals of thunder and binding
flashes Of lightning TO add to the ter
rors of railroad wreck, passenger
train No. of the Kansas City, Pitts
burg & Gulf railroad rolled off the
track three miles south of Grandview,
Mo-, Thursday night, Although many
people were injured, and some of them
seriously 50, it is not expected that n
death will result from the accident, as
Mrs. II. Is. Chandler, who lives on a
farm near Bolton, Mo-, and j. !. X.
Crawford, Of DreXel, Mo-, who received
the most serious injuries, and who
are now in hospital in this city,
are reported to lie resting easily,
with good chances for recovery. There
are seven others in the hospital who
were taken from the wrecked train,
but their cases are not thought TO be
dangerous In addition to these more
than 20 were bruised and sustained
shocks, but all had been able to go TO
their homes last night, The cause of
the wreck is not understood, even by
the railroad men who have examined
the surroundings carefully. The two
theories advanced are that the disaster
was theresult of a spreading of the rails,
the roadbed having become soft during
the hard and continuous rain, or that
one of the trucks broke. 1t is considered
quite probable that the breaking of n
truck caused the flangeso of the wheels of
one car to cut the spikes, thus allowing
the rails to be forced apart. Orders
had been received to run slow and the
train was making about 20 miles an
hour. Suddenly the combination bag
gage and express car left the track and
dragged the smoker, chair and sleeper
after it, that portion of the train run
ming along the ties for about 45 rods
when all four toppled over the embank-
ment and turned bottom up on the
ground below. The overturning of the
cars broke the air connection with the
engine, automatically setting the
brakes and bringing the engine to a
standstill. The forward trucks of the
rear sleeper left the rails, but the car
did not turn over.
