Bros famous exhibition has become
doubled in size and is now beyond all

stages in mid air, and on a huge quarter
mile hippodrome track. The trained

many times the price of admission to
see, include three troupes of wonderful
educated elephants, Lockart's play-act-
ing elephants, Marchand's pugilistic
pachyderms and Souder's elephant
brass band, and O'Brien's sixty-one
horse act, in which three score hand

display ever seen. Don't miss it.

Tobacco Notes.

Fl. w. Child arrived home Saturday
night from two weeks visit in the east.
Geo. III. Rumrill, GAINESVILLE leaf dealer,
called upon Edgerton tobacco friends
yesterday.
Mr.. Heyl, leaf dealer of Pittsburg,
Pa, has been visiting the markets of the
state during the week
Mr.. John Mellor, of the New York in
spection agency of Ruscher & Mellor,
has been visitor in this market few
days during the week.
We learn that Soverhill & Porter are
about to erect a fine new tobacco ware
house at GAINESVILLE. The firm have
heretofore occupied leased buildings
there but now propose to have modern
warehouse and office of their own
A shipment consisting of 800 cases OF
'98 Wisconsin leaf billed to export, was
destroyed in the big fire of the North
German Lloyd Co. in New York recently.
The tobacco was portion of the Flagg
packing and had been sold to G. Solo
mon & Bros, New York.
The government crop report issued
July LIST places the tobacco crop of this
year 8 points below the average of other
years. We can scarcely imagine where
the department could secure their esti-
mates that would bear out such a pal
pable error. Everyone familiar with the
tobacco prospects must have known
that the crop at that date was above the
average instead of below. The incident
only shows that unreliability of the fig
ures generally eminating from the gov
eminent statistical department., is sim
ply not posted
The bids for erecting the new ware
house on the lot recently purchase of
Adam Holt of this city, by H. S. Nc
Giffin of Edgerton for Louis Sylverter &
Son of New York, were opened yesterday.
The contracting firm of Collins & Wray
were the lowest bidders and the con-
tract was awarded to them. The plans
call for a three story brick veneered
building, with eight foot basement, to
cost when finished in the neighborhood

STORM DID GREAT DAMAGE.
Almost Cyclone in Some Localities. Con-
siderable Property Destroyed.

| Almost "a cyclone IN some Localities. OOD-
siderable Property Destroyed.
The storm which swept over this sec
ton on Friday evening last. was the
most severe of the season. In some
places the heavy wind that accompanied
it amounted to little less than tornado
doing a vast amount of damage to farm
buildings, windmills, shade trees, fences
and other property. Electricity played
an important part also in the destruction
of property. The clouds seemed to be
surcharged with the fluid, and frequent
discharges wrecked whatever fell in it's
path. The rain fall was also the heaviest
in some years, it being estimated that
over two inches of water fell during
Thursday and Fridays rains.
AS the reports come in from the
country districts it is found that good
| many thousand of dollars of property
/ has been destroyed. The wind seemed
especially severe over good portion of
the town of Porter, and scarcely farm
er escaped without the loss of some ma
ture or other On the Charles Miller
homestead large frame barn nearly 200
feet in length, was taken from it's foun-
dation and crushed, burying several
head of cattle and hogs under 80 tons of
hay. Some of the stock were rescued,
but the loss will reach 5 head of cattle
and a few hogs. A few moments before
the storm IS head were sheltered in the
barns. Windmills and other buildings
were also blown down. On the Lieneu
farm, short distance east, fine new
shingled tobacco shed was stripped of
it's roof and crushed as an egg shell.
One portion of the roof fell upon the
house carrying away the chimneys, cut
ting down the cornice and smashing in
the windows. Another portion was car
ried several rods across the road and
deposited Ia an oat field. 1t will take
several hundred dollars to repair the
losses here. On the John Nichols farm
every tobacco shed was moved from it's
foundations and otherwise injured. D.
L. Earle had large barn blown down
and several head of stock killed. An
other barn on the Dooley farm met a
similar fate and some horses and cattle
killed. Windmills at Peach's, Austin
Fessenden, and other nelghbors on the
street were wrecked. There is scarcely
any doubt but what hundreds of tobac-
co sheds in the towns about us have
been damaged by the storm, SO that
some expensive repairs will be necessary.

COL. BILL STERHETT'S FLOP.
Once a Free siIverite He Is Now ol
the Other Side.

Once Free SiIverite He Is Now on
the Other Side.
Washington, April 6.-Statesmen and
journalists in Washington and New York
all know Col Bill Sterrett Of Texas. Col.
Sterritt came to Washington ten years
ago a rampant fire-aeting advocate of free
silver al a ratio of IS to /. He made him
self famous throughout the land by his
original and unique style in serving up
political events at the national capital for
several Southern newspapers. Col Ster-
rett injected into his articles some of the
breeZiest and most lurid stories aud de-
scriptions Of sceueSe of interest that were
ever wired from the Capital City But
few of his associates dared to discuss the
subject of free silver with Col Sterrett SO
vigorous and apparently invulneiable was
he in his faith in the doctrine of free sill
yer.
A few years ago a rich relative died and
left Col Sterrett a handsome legacy Upon
coming into possession Of large wealth his
views on the financial question experienced
a sudden change, and, 10 the astonish-
ment and dismay of his political friends
in Texas, he became convert TO the gold
stanard policy. Like all new converts to
a new faith Col. Sterrett took and advanc-
ed position on the money question and IN
expressing his views in behalf of the sound
money doctrine he was even more pictu-
rescue and sensational than he had been
for free silver.
He recently retired from state politics
and is living in ease and luxury on large
planta ton near Galveston, Tex. short
time ago some of his Washington friends
were travelling IN Texas and they came
upon a wel-stocked and admirably equip
ped plantation. The fences enclosing this
plantation were literally placarded as fol-
lows:
