IORNADOES IN OKLAHOMA
Farm houstS and Crops in Kay County
 Damaged
WindmiII' Swept Away and Heavy LO" to Insurance CompanisS-DsAth in the Track of the Twideu

WHiCHiTA. kans.-June s. The most disastrous storm which has ever visited Oklahoma prevailed in Kay county last night. A tornado struck Billings, Eddy and Tonawa. and It's influence covered a stretch of country ten miles wide and thirty-slx miles long. The following is the list of fla talities at Eddy:
 Nearly every farm house In north western Kay county Is more or less in- jured: not windmill has been left standing. and the face of the country is covered with debris. Blackwell suf- fered considerably. Practically every piece of glass in the city has been broken.
 If the damages reported are correct including the loss to crops from wind and hail. 1t will be more than $lO0.O0O. The tornado was worst at Eddy. where Bob McGiffin was killed and his mother fatally wounded. A telephone message from Enid tonight says the fatalities at Eddy were seven persons. but the report cannot be confirmed. Very little can be heard from the country places.
 IL is evident that 1t was not the same tornado that struck all the places. Ii Is probable that three sepa- rate twIsters prevailed at practically the same time At Eddy only two houses remain standing. IL was small town. The prevalency of cy- clone cellars undoubtedly saved many lives IL Is estimated that not less than l60 houses in Blackwell. Eddy and Tonkawa were injured.
 The office of one tornado insurance company out of forty-three doing bus mess In Oklahoma received eleven telegrams tonight announcing total losses. They claim that their losses will not fall short of seventy-hye houses in Kay county. and that the to- tal losses of the forty-three companies will be something enormous.

DURBAN.-Detailso of Bullock's col umn. which Is operating in the east ern part of the TEansvaal. show that during the past three weeks the Brit ish have made frequent successful night attacks while in pursuit of Com mandant General Botha's forces. They have captured a number of Boers and also large quantities of stock. Quanti- ties of food stuffs have been destroyed Efforts to discover the location of tbe long tom in possession of the Boers have been futile.

come the habit OF Parisians to drink a
glass or two OF milk at the period be-
fore dinner known as the 'aperitif'

been wrought In substituting milk for
absinthe Is said 70 ae owing to the in
crease in open air exercise among

for milk rather than for liquor" Most

with a sign informing the thirsty BIZ
cyclist or automobilist that milk made
on the premises Is the purest in Paris"
Under these circumstances Il is natural
that the subject OF milk adnlterauon Is
just now receiving the attention Of the
health authorities Of Paris. and Dr. n
De Rothschild has recommended that
special inspectors be employed to ex-
anime an milk sold. although he deems
that the danger Of tuberculosis infec-
tion from milk drinking is really less
than is commonly imagined. On the
other hand. he showed that Paris milk
is adulterated to o great extent and Is
full Of impurities. He further recon-
mends that a measure should be instl-
