Severe Tornado.

Chicago, May list, 1902
Last Friday night n violent and
widespread wind storm sent us over
two hundred claims under our
Tornado Policies. The claims
come from Indiana, Illinois, Iowa,
Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, Ken
lucky and Tennessee. They run
all the way from the small damage
say of five dollars, well up into the
hundreds OF dollars for buildings
totally destroyed. All these
claims will have prompt attention
and settlement.
This storm should be an argu-
ment "settler," not only about
certain localities being exempt
from such visitations, but about
the value of tornado insurance.

Abraham Davault.

Abraham Davault was born In
1897. His early education was
CLEANED at Danville. He held the
cnair OF Greek and Latin In the
Lexington college for Ave years
and was president one year, at the
end of which his health became
broken.
After farming until his health
was restored Prof. Davault took
the same chair In Hardin College
that he had filed so well at Lex
ington and remained there three
years. In 1883 Mr.. Davault en-
tered the hardware business at
~Jonesburg and continued the same
business until his death which
came May II.
In 1870 he and Miss Madeira
Jones were united in marrige.
A wife and two daughters, Miss
Annie and Mrs. Pfaff mourne his
departure.
At the time of his death Mr.. Da-
vault was President of the Board
of Stewards Of the NJ. Il. Church.
His life was a consistent christian
life,--his time was at the service OF
his church and he materially as
sisted It's welfare. To have lived a
useful life and to have accomplish
ed much good is the epitome OF
his life. The friends Of the fami-
ly here would console them with
the thought that the welfare of a
life web spent is far better in the
great future than twas while the
life was being spent.

Section, Tor this Week Ending
MAY ~. 1909.
The past week averaged about 3
degrees warmer than al
throughout the state, with about
the normal amount of sunshine.
Light frost occurred in localities In
the western sections on the seventh
but no damage resulted. Showers
were general during the fore part
of the week and the heaviest falls
occurring in the southwest section.
The drouth In the northwestern
counties has been temporarily re-
lieved but much more rain Is need
ed in that section, and also in some
of the eastern counties. Local
hailstorms did some damage to
fruit trees In portions OF st. Charles
and st. Louis counties.
In portions of the central and
southern sections farm work was
delayed for n few days by the rain,
but progressed favorably during
the latter part of the week. Corn
planting Is nearly completed In
most districts and cultivation Is
becoming general. Corn is COM
ing up to good stands but cut
worms arc doing much damage In
some of the central and northern
counties, especially on sod ground
Cotton, in the southeastern coun-
tics, Is doing well and is being
worked the first time. Wheat is
improving In the northwestern
counties since the rains, but some
correspondents report that II Is
heading low and that the crop will
be light; clswhcrcit generally con-
tinucs In excellent condition and IL
now heading In the central and
southern sections. Many corrc-
%spondents state that n finer pros
pcct for n wheat crop was never
known. In many of the central
and southern counties, however.
there Il great danger of It's becom-
ing too rank and falling, Rye is
doing well. Oats are still looking
badly in n few counties but in g"n-
cral are making good progress and
in many counties r reported very
promising. Meadows and pas
lures are still short In some OF the
northern counties where they arc
needing more rain, but elsewhere
grasses OF all kinds are growing
well, though there Is considerable
complaint that old meadows will
bc very wccdy. Considerable mil
let and sorghum will be sown fol-
forage. Flax, In the south-wcst-
ern counties, Is doing we'll, except
In portions of Benton and Jackson
counties. In the latter county
some ilolds have been plowed up.
Gardens and potatoes are coming
on finely. Melons are doing well
In Scott county put are being da-
mayed by bugs. Reports regard
apples Indicate that In many ofthc
counties they have not set well
and the crop will be light. In
many ofthc northern counties or
chards are being greatly damaged
by caterpillars. Strawberries are
now ripe in the southern counties
but the crop is far below the aver
age Grapes will also be n light
crop, the vines having been badly
watcr-killcd.

Straw Hats Ne xt

Straw hat seasons
Here again,
Bringing comfort,
For the men;
Frowns are giving
Way to smiles
Ger the lightness
OF the tiles.
Through the seams the
Breezes new
Percolate and
Cool the brow.
With less frcqucncc
Cheeks are mopped
When the head with
Straw Is topped.
Bright and dainty
Are these hats.
Whether oval
Crowns or flats.
They're so neat that
Women sigh
When they see them
Passing by.
Every wcarcr
Walks with pride,
Knowing that he's
Closely eyed;
For all wanting
New straw tiles
Seek for pointers
On the styles.
Into windows
Now and then
Slyly glance some
Straw hat men;
For like women
Some are keen
To see selves as
They are seen.
Neat and natty
Spick and span
Proudly struts the
Straw hat man;
But observe his
Wild dismay
When his tile Is
Blown away.
Eek.
