The r.oossum's Mistake.

A 'possum more bold than prudent,
wandered into the heart of Joplin the
other night. His rashness cost him
dear. A venerable negro came along
and saw him on the top board of a
neighbor's fence. The 'possum saw
the negro at the same time the negro
saw the 'possum, and dropped and
tried to run, but was too late. The
negro overlook him and caught him
by the tail, and the next night the
black aristocrats of the town sat down
to toothsome meal. 1t doesn't pay
a 'possum to get too gay when a black
man is about.

One on the Duke.

An English duke of great wealth and
large estates had occasion one day to

the queen. That was his chance and
his cue, so he turned round on the
duke. "Oh, yes, your grace" ne said,
"I'n go home. But though I'm a poor
man, thank God I never had to send
nv missis out to service as you do
yours"

Morning..

We say her baby eyes grow dim,
AS fell the summer night,
And knew that all the things Of earth
Were fading from her sight.
Her baby hands put out to touch
The faces that she knew
So day went out, and all about
The shadows deeper grew.
We held these feeble hands to guide
Her up the narrow steep,
And felt the throbbing fever tide
Our hearts too full to weep.
But with the faint first CLEAN Of day
We knew that she had gone
Adown the happy sunrise way,
- Across the peaks Of dawn.

DAMAGE is GREAT
HURRICANE IN WEST INDIES VERY
DISASTROUS.
Many Are Killed and In .jured and
Thousands Left without Home
or Shelter Property Damage in
Jamaica Estimated at Ten Mil.
lion Dollars.

Kingston, Jamaica, Aug. 13.-The
effects of the hurricane OH the island
OF Jamaica were greater than at first be-
lieved. Port Antonio, on the north
coast, was COMPLETELY overwhelmed.
Only Elk houses we're left standing
there. The United Fruit Company's
wharves, offices, hotel and plantation
we've utterly demolished. Five of the
company's steamers, including the Du-
nois and Brighton, were driven ashore,
but are living in easy positions.
Port Port Maria, another town on
the north coast, also suffered similarly.
he coast is strewn with wreckage of
local sailing vessels.
1t is feared that the loss of life has
been heavy, thirty fatalities having al
ready been reported, principally among
seamen.
The entire eastern end Of the island
has been devastated. Villages have
been wiped out and public buildings
destroyed. Thousands of the peasantry
were rendered homeless and destitute
and are wandering about seeking shell
ter and food. The destruction of the
banana plantations has been complete
and the fruit trade is paralyzed for the
next twelve months. Hundreds of pros
porous fruit growers have been brought
to bankruptcy and ruin.
The western end of the island, which
it was at first supposed mad escaped
also suffered considerabl New ban
ana plantations planted there were
partly destroyed, and the orange and
coffee crops were also injured. Several
sailing vessels were wrecked on the
north side. 1t is still stormy and
threatening and there are Tears that
there may be renewal of the storm.
Thousands of houses in Kingston
we've damaged, the wharves were bat
tered and several coasting vessels were
sunk in the harbor.
Trade is practically at standstill.
The southeastern portion of the island
has been denuded of its crops, the riv-
ers are flooded, and many men were
carried out to sea and drowned. Con-
sidering the damage TO property during
the hurricane the loss of lie was COM
paratively small, though the present
estimate now is that the death list will
reach fifty.
Hundreds of persons were INJURED
and there were numerous hairbreadth
escapes. The property loss is estimat-
ed at $40, 900, 900.
