Palestine, Texas, June 1.-The heav-
lest and most devastating hail storm
ever known in this section, accompa-
MED by high winds, occurred here at
2:30 this morning. The heaviest fall
was from northeast of the city to the
northwest extending from two to three
miles; with few spots excepted, corn,
cotton and fruit is utterly destroyed,
The educational tomato farm, consist
ing of 100 acres upon which so much
money has been spent and upon which
so many hopes were hinged, is total
ruin; the Strickland vegetable farm OF
twenty acres and others in the track
of the storm are wiped out. The roads
and gullies north were blocked with
large hail stones this morning. In the
city thousands of window lights are
broken.
The hail lid not extend southwark
much farther than the suburbs, and
the oniy damage was from wind
which laid the corn low. The corn
cotton, fruit, vegetables. gardens and
windows in losses will amount to not

Late reports say the damage ex-
tended for six miles northwest, the

For evening wear is a dainty little
hat of white tulle rutfies. On the edge
of each alternate ruffle is sewed a mar

front the hat is lifted off the face with
several soft rosettes of turquoise liber-

Another flat-crowned hat is of pale
yellow straw, just lifted off the face.
Directly in front, and extending to-

low of the flowers against the deeper
yellow of the straw produces an effect
really beautiful and artistic.

on small vein of high grade rock in
Calaveras formation. In one place it
is stated that the vein is feet wide,

with the result that the mine was
flooded. the surface water probably
coming directly from the creek. The
property was provided with both water

operated as vigorously as the power
would permit, in addition to bailing
