The only side Turkey takes in the
matter of debts is the side of the man
who s1ets the other fellow do the wor-
rying."
1t is time now for the Sultan of Tur-
kew to remember and act on the old ad-
age, "Beware the fury of a patient
man" and pay, pay, pay.
The Turkish Government seems to
have become a convert to the philOs-
ophy by which the debtor leaves the
other man to do the walking of the floor.
The Sultan ia in debt to the whole

SheboygaD, Wis.,, Visited by a Most De

SheboygaD, Wis.,, Visited by a Most De-
structive Wind Storm.
SHEBoYGAN, Wis, Aug. 21.-A ter
rife wind storm Struck the city during
the afternoon. The storm came very
suddenly from the north. Eight large
buildings were completely wrecked and
200 small houses were blown down.
The loss will be upwards of $500, 900.
At noon it was as dark as night and in
tensely hot. A few moments before l
O'Clock the storm broke, increasing in
force until tornado was blowing. Peo-
pie were thrown down and fences and
signs hurled hundreds Of feet. The
storm ragged for some minutes and
passed off to the south.
The storm started in the western
part of the city and swept down to the
south side and off into the lake. It was
two miles wide and wrecked everything
in it's path. All was over in 10 minutes,
though it seemed hours to the panic
stricken people. The buildings wrecked
include the Croker chair factory, the
street car barns, the malthouse of the
Konrad Schrieier Brewing company,
the American Folding Bed company's
plant, the Fourth ward schoolhouse
and the South side Lutheran church.
That no one was killed seems almost
miracle. The wind wrecked building
after building with the greatest rapidity
and there was little warning Of the ap-
proach of the storm. The people in
every case were out Of their houses be-
fore the storm struck and those W no
were struck by flying debris were only
slightly injured. In the factories the
employees were, in many cases, bruised
and cut from wreckage.

EIVE-PEOPLE KILLED
TERRIBLE TRAGEDY OCCURS NEAR
ARLINGTON, MINI.

Theodore Wallert Brutally Murders His
Wife and Four Children-Another
Child, Though Severely Wounded, May
Live-Author Of the Crime Escapes. but
ePosse IL in Pursuit.
ARLINGTON, Mimi, Aug. 21.-Five
members of the family Of Theodore
Wallert were murdered in cold blood at
their home, three miles oui Of town,
about a. m. Another was severely
wounded, but will recover. The dead
ere: Mrs Theodore Wallert, AZ years;
Gustav Sternburn, 20 years; Helena
Sternburn, Ii years; Anna Sternburn,
Is years, and Reinold Sternburn, II
years. Otto Sternburn, IL years, was
badly injured but is alive. Theresa
Osteinor, little girl who was visiting
with the Wallerts, escaped the MUIR
derer's knife.
The woman's husband, who is the
stepfather of the children, is suspected
of the crime.
The murderer first set fire to the
barn, burning it and it's contents to the
ground, also several outlying stacks Of
grain and outhouses. He then entered
the house by means of barrel placed
near a window.
The mother and one daughter were
sleeping downstairs, and the other
daughter, a grandchild and three sous
were upstairs. 1t is supposed that
those downstairs fell first under the
assassin's knife and that the others
were killed as they came down the
stairs, being awakened by the fire and
the cries of those below.
One will Recover.
All had stabs in their chests and ab-
domens and some in the neck. One boy
was struck by the knife three times,
but will recover if no complications
set in.
AS the deed was committed in dark
ness, the only living witness does not
say positively that Wallert was the
murderer, but thinks it was him.
For long time past the family has
been having trouble Of one kind and an
other, according to all that can be
learned, until several months ago Theo-
dore Wallert left home and went to
live with relatives in the neighborhood.
He was seen here in Arlington about
$50 and it is thought that he must
have gone from here to the farm.
Whether or not he had been drinking,
or was in a fit of insanity, is still a mat
ter of doubt.
The whole country is stirred up over
the event and Sheriff Gaske has formed
a posse to go out and search for the
criminal Wallert is so we'll known that
it seems unlikely that he can escape.
He has been traced towards Glencoe.

I BRYAN rs APPROVED.

Anti-Imperialia.s at indianapolis Take
INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 18.-The liberty
congress of the American League Of
Anti-1mperialists has emphatically en-
dorsed the candidacy of William J.
Bryan for president. The resolutions
to that effect were read to tho conven.
ton by Colonel Charles r. Goldman of
Massachusetts,, who moved their adop-
ton after stating that the entire COM
mittee of Is had endorsed them. The
convention, however, did not adopt the
platform as submitted by the resolu.
tions committee without prolonged
and heated debate. Thomas H. Os.
borne Of Auburn, N. Y, leader OF the
third ticket" movement, offered an
amendment to strike out the endorse.
ment of Bryan and his amendment was
vigorously supported by several dele
gates and when the previous question
was ordered less than score could be
marshaled to vote against the Bryan
| Endorsement. The vote was viva vOce
and its exact result will never be
known, but the sentiment of the con.
vention was clearly shown as being in
favor of
The Endorsement of Bryan
as the most effective manner of check
ing the alleged imperialistic policy Of
the administration.
The most vigorous opponents OF the
Bryan announcement in the platform
were conspicuous members Of the Ma
tional or third ticket convention, who
were also admitted as delegates to the
anti-imperialistic congress. They were
ably led by Thomas M. Osborne and
advocated the nomination of a third
ticket on the theory that their follow
ers, while opposed to President Nc
kinley, were not prepared to accept
Mr.. Bryan on the Kansas City plat
form.
Colonel Charles r. Goldman and Ed
win Burritt Smith were the chief sup.
porters of the platform as presented,
claiming that now all political ques-
tons we're subordinate to the one ques-
ton Of Imperialism, and all opposed to
the administration should unite to
overthrow it in the most effective and
available manner presented. Every
mention Of Mr.. Bryan's name in the
convention called forth enthusiastic
applause.
