Another Jury in County Court Unable
10 Reach a Verdict.

The case of the State VS.. George Wig
gins who Is charged with cruelty to ami
mails. which was begun Tuesday in coun-
ty court, went to the jury yesterday
morning after arguments had been made
,ilas They did not report until after
noon and then announced disagreement.
They were ordered back to the jury room
by Judge Tyler and during the afternoon
reappealed three times with the same
result. On the fourth appearance Judge
Tyler excused them. In his instructions
to the jurors during the afternoon Judge
TYLER said they did not have to find
whether or not the horse was beaten but
that the only question for them was the
identity OF the prisoner.
TIE case of the State vs.. Edward j.
FinLcran was begun in the afternoon. In
his opening statement states Attorney
Lcary said tho State would show that on
May y last Finncran drove to c. p
Joness florist establishment on North
avenue and attempted to gain admission;
that Mr.. Jones considered Finneran was
not in condition to be admitted and re
fused HIM. As a result Finncran struck
Jones 50 severely that he was laid up for
several days.
The defense is that Jones hailed FIN
ncrdn when H. was driving by, that Jones
was drunk and showed Fluneran from the
sid walk. This caused Finueran to slap
Jouos's face, which caused "A further at
tack by Jones, resulting in the chastise-
ment of Jones by Finneran. The case VIII

DEALT Death.
A Cyclone Sweeps Down on
a Georgia Town KILLING
and Manning Many.

Gainesville, Ga, June Within
the space of two minutes today a tor
nado dealt death and destruction to
the city of Gainesville and environs,
killed at least 100 people, wounding
$50 more. leveling 100 cottages to the
ground and tearing two stories off the
factory of the Gainesville cotton mill.
OF the killed probably two-thirds
were women and children who were
operatives in the cotton mills. The
death list includes only six negroes.
The storm came from the south out
of an almost clear sky, swooping down
on the Gainesville cotton mills near
the Southern railroad station at fif-
teen minutes before l O'Clock.
With a terrible crash the two up
per stories of the building were swept
away leaving thirty-two operatives
dead in the room. The tornado then
swept around the outskirts of the city
to the suburb of New Holland.

LOSS OF LIFE
In the Flooded Districts is
Said TO Be Heavy.
Great Suffering.

Kansas City, Mo. June With gas
and electric lights extinguished, the
water works shut down and the city
practically at the mercy of the first
fire that shall break out; with rail
road transportation feeble and uncer-
tain, Kansas City may, if the water
does not recede within the next two
or three days. be compelled to fight
for her very life.
And tonight the skies are dark and
lowering, the rain is falling heavily,
more stormy weather is sweeping up
FROM the west and the Unsuitable river
is holding its own.
1t is practically stationary tonight
but what the flood has it keeps and
there is no certain promise of when it
will recede. The stage tonight is "a. 8
against 30 feet this morning. Chief
Connor of the weather bureau says
that while the outlook was for con-
tinued rains it would necessitate a
very heavy fall if the present high
water is to continue and whether this
will come or not is something he can
not tell.
The first authentic information
from Kansas City, Kansas, was re-
ceived tonight. In that district 20. 600
people are homeless A number which
cannot be estimated have been drown
ed and the property loss has been
great.
The situation there is a parallel to
the situation here. apparently no bet
ter and no worse. There is no great
probability that there will be further
loss of life if the river does not rise
very suddenly.
1t is likley that the number TO IA
talities in the city will approximate
fifty. Down in the wholesale district
tonight people were waving white
cloths to attract attention. The con-
dition of some of these is pitiable.
They have been held prisoners for two
davs threatened with death by drown
ing. at one time by fire and for the
most part without food. Every effort
is being made and they will all be
saved tomorrow unless the water
rises more and this seems improbable.

Bear Killed.

Frank r. Rehmenklau. the taxider-
mist. has been out on bear hunt.
He never goes after game but what
he gets it. This time he was most
fortunate and brought back with him
one of the finest specimens in the way
of skin that was ever tanned Last
week he decided to take a bear hunt
in the southeast part of the county
along Mesa creek. While out looking
for game on Wednesday he ran across
big dark brown bear. 1t was some
little time before he could get the
right kind of shot at the old fellow,
as he did not want to crush the skull.
Finally after dallying with the bear
he made one shot, the bullet pene-
trating the neck and killing bruin
almost instantly.
The fur of the animal is long and
of the finest texture and when mount
ed will be a handsome specimen. Mr..
Rehmenklap cut the flesh from the
skull and boiled and cleaned it thor
oughly and the skin and skull can be
seen at his parlors on Fourth street,
opposite the Grand Hotel. The bear
was not fieshy yet he weighed fully
900 pounds.
