 The worse damage was reported from the storms path which passed through a large district south of New Richmond County It was a genuine tornado and did much damage to farm property. al- though fortunately no lives were lost. On a smaller portion it resembled the torna- do which swept over and destroyed the greater portion of New Richmond two years ago. Over a dozen farmers have al- ready reported the loss of part or all of their buildings, wind mills. live stock, machines, etc., and the loss there will be very heavy.
 In some cases the buildings were crush the wind, while flood damage was else- where reported. Rain fall of nearly four inches is reported.

COL. HERBERT ADDRESSES
 BAR ASSOCIATION
Continued from First Page,

The Declaration of Independence does not apply to the Fillipinos any more than it applied to the negroes in 1860. The Re- publican party by it's position now has vihdicated the position of the South be- fore the war. As to Porto Rico, those people are no more entitled to self-gov- ernment as a right than the same classes here in the South.
 We must abandon all party shibbaleths. The. flag does not carry all the freedom aE(privileges we enjoy to every savage @f. He indorsed the decision of the
 <preme Court in the Porto Rico cases and thought it unfortunate that there should have been a dissenting opinion.
 He urged upon the lawyers of Alabama that they study these questions.
 He touched upon our industrial expan- sion and the perils 1t brings to us. It is proDhesied that Europe may combine against us and give trouble. We must look facts in the face and study the truth. Corporations, the large corpora tlons. have made wealth and prosperity. They can produce more cheaply. But as they grow in size they grow In yower, and we must control them.
 He suggested one great remedy-repeal the tariff. That is our best protection against monopoly.
 He concluded amid applause.
 Governor Jones said he had a communi- cation from some ladies for the orator He eloquently described the old White House and it's great occupant, he pre- sented to Colone.s Herbert from tho White House Association a pipe made of wood from the yard of the old house.
 Colonel Herbert made a feeling and touching speech of thanks.

MADAME PATHS CASTLE SOLD.
False Bidder Becomes Badly Confused.
 Castle Brings &45,oo0.

London June 18.-Craig- -Y-Nos Cas- tie, the residence in Wales of Adelina Patti Baroness Rolf Cedarstrom), was put up at auction this afternoon at the Mart, this city.
 Craig-Y-Nos was brought in for s 45,- 900 after a dramatic scene caused by a false bid of a50,0O0, which was the reserve price.
 The auction room was packed with 1, influential people and agents. Among those present was Baron Cedarstrom. The bidding opened with an offer of t 50 ,000, made by prominent London auctioneer No other offer was heard, and Auctioneer Lumley declared Madame Patti's castle sold at that fig ure. Simultaneously the bidder rushed up and told MT. Lumley he had not meant his offer to be serious. Long conferences followed. MT. Lumley went out and consulted Sir George Lewis, the well-known lawyer. Excite ment reigned throughout the auction room. The bidder, who was very pale, remained in his seat, perspiring, with the eyes of all present upon him.
 Sir George Lewis said that no pro- ceedings would be taken, and MT. Lum- ley reopened the sale at G20,000. By thousands and five hundreds the bid ding quickly advanced. At G45,000 a deadlock was reached, and MT. Lumley announced that he must buy in the property for Madame Patti, the reserve price being e50,000.
 Nine. Patti's reasons for disposing of one of the most beautiful country seats in the United Kingdom are said by her agents to be two-fold. In the first place she desires to spend a good part of each year in Sweden with her hus- bands relatives, and, in the second place, she nnds that the Welsh climate does not thoroughly agree with her. Her life in the future will be spent in the country of her husbands birth.

Callahan Gets Decision.

San Francisco, Cal, June 2s.-The pre- liminary contest between Tim Callahan of Philadelphia and Joe Bernstein of New York for twenty rounds was almost an even thing after the fifth round. Call iahan did all the forcing and most of the leading and knocked Bernstein down three times with right on the jaw. On the other hand Bernstein jabbed Calla- hans face with his left throughout the fight, bringing the blood from his nose and mouth In a dozen rounds and at in- fighting he was decidedly the better man. His ring genera1ship, too, was far better than that of Callahan. The referee. however. gave the decision to Callahan without hesitation. It did not meet with popular approval

AN EouivocAL STATEMENT.

From the London Mail
 A story is just now going around about certain well-known English politician. For long time he has been in the habit of buying an evening paper in Westminster on his way to the House, and usually from the same newspaper boy. One evening, how ever, by some chance he had not with him the necessary penny for the ac- customed purchase, and intimated as much to the youthful newsvender.
 "Never mind," replied the other, you can pay me for it tomorrow"
 But, my boy" said the M. P, sol emnly, perhaps may not be alive to- morrow"
 Well" answered the boy, simply, eff that be so it will be no great loss, after all."
 The legislator looked at him, gasped, and passed on in silence.
