threatening all the afternoon, broke
upon Kirksville at so o'clock tonight,
in all the fury Of a cyclone. A path a
quarter Of a mile wide and as clean as
the prairie was swept through the
eastern portion of the city, and 400
buildings, homes and mercantile
houses were levelled to the ground in
scattered ruins
In the heavy rain that followed the
people who had escaped turned out to
rescue the injured. For two hours not
much was accomplished. as ALL was
confusion. but. by s o'clock % dead
bodies had been taken from the ruins.
1t is expected that the hist of dead VIII
reach between 50 and so if it does not
exceed that Almost 1000 people were
more or less injured. Daylight will be
necessary before any adequate esti-
mate Of loss Of life and property can
be had. Each blanched face reports a

Intense darkness prevailed after the
cyclone and the rescuers were at dis
advantage for a short time until fire
broke out in a dozen places in the
ruins and shed light over the scene. No
attempts were made to extinguish the
fire, partly because the rescuers had no
time and partly because of the need of
light. on both sides of the storms
path the debris was piled high and
fercely burned. In all probability a
number of bodies have been inciner-

of the robbers who held up the Union
Pacific passenger train at Rock Greek,
WyO., June 2, at which time they blew
two of the cars to pieces and escaped with
the country north of the Union Pacific,
with a Sherfff'S posse close behind them.
They were bounded up near Powder and

a few days. The appointment of Brig
adler General Bates to be a major gen
eral, like that of Funston, is made pos
sible by the increase in the enlisted
force. One major general is allowed to
each II, 900. There are now only seven
major generals to $4,000 men, thus
leaving one vacancy
Gen. Bates is at present in the Phil
ippineS. He has been in several inn
portant engagements there, and con-
Quoted successfully the diplomatic ne
gotiations with the Zulu chiefs. He
has a good civil war record and served
with distinction at Santiago and Porto
Rico during the Spanish war He is
considered one of the best administra-
tive officers in the service. He is well
known as a military tactician, having
served on various boards for revision of
army regulations and tactics. He is a
son of President Lincoln's postmaster
general and is a personal friend of
President Mckinley.
Gen. LawtOn's appointment as briga-
der general in the regular army has
been generally expected. 1t is to be
given as a reward for his gallant ser
vice in the Santiago campaign, as well
as his splendid work in the Philippines.
His appointment at the present time
makes him a possible commanding
general of the army after the retire
ment of Gen. Miles. Gen. Macarthur is
booked for the brigadier generalship to
become vacant by the retirement OF
Gen. Anderson in January next.

Good Qualities That Put the stamp of
Excellence Upon This Article.

There are many reasons why you
should take Norrow's Kid-ne-ofds in
preference to any other kidney prepar-
alton First, Kid-ne-oids are a scien-
tinc preparation. Second They are
tablets, which is the scientific form of
preparing medicine. Third There are
never any bad after effects from their
use. Fourth, They act directly uDon
the kidneys; they are strictly a kidney
and nerve tonic. Fifth, You do not
have to quit work while using Kid-ne-
Otds. A fifty cent box contains enough
for about two weeks treatment PeODIe
use Kid-ne-oids because they cure kid
ney ailments.
Mrs. Baur, 225 Tyler street. Topeka
Kansas, says: "I have used Morrow's 5
I<id-ne-oids for kidney troubles and
find it a splendid remedy, giving me
entire relief. My liver was torpid and
I was very bilious. Morrow's Liver-Iax
made my liver active and relieved me
of biliousness. They are splendid rem
edies and will keep them in the house
all the time
BI0rrow's Kid-ne-oids are not pills
