Many Fatalities and Great Damage
by Floods.
OMAHA, Neb., May 27.-Eastern Ne
braska was visited by another series
of storms last night, several of which
developed into true tornadoes. One Wis
tied Hastings, near the scene of Sun
days heavy storms, and blew several
buildings to splinters.
Another struck Herman, twenty-five
miles north of Omaha, and the scene
of a tornado five weeks ago, which
killed a dozen people. The home of d.
r. Parish was demolished, and Mr..
Parish, his wife and child were Sc
riously hurt.
Omaha also experienced a storm
which blew several houses from their
foundations and unroofed others in the
southwest part Of the city.
Accompanying the severe wind in ev-
cry instance was a rain storm of unusu-
al severity, and as a result several
towns in eastern Nebraska are flooded,
Springfield, Papillion and Plattsmouth
reporting the worst conditions. The
railroads have suffered washouts in a
score of places, and several bridges

mated at several hundred thousand
dollars.
At Davy, northwest of Lincoln, thir-
teen persons were injured.
The storm in Lincoln did great dam
age in that city, the loss on buildings
being estimated at 100000. The storm
moved northwest and split. The por-
ton that struck Davy was seen ap-
preaching by the people of that town,
most of whom were able to seek safety
in cellars.
In East Lincoln many dwellings were
unroofed or destroyed.
The flood was disastrous at Spring
field, and six families barely escaped
drowning Seven dwellings were car
ried away by the water. The business
portion of the town was recently burn
ed, and many new buildings were in
course of construction. All were de-
molished by the wind.

THE SOUVENIR
TEACUP CRAZE

The souvenir teacup craze is now
engaging the attention Of faddists.
With the decline of the teaspoon
mania, caused by OVERRIDING the mat
ter, the collector has straightway
transferred her allegiance to teacups.
Indeed, she says that the teaspoon
craze was unsatisfactory, for, except
ing on state occasions, these utensils
were kept laid away in chamois-skin
cases, and when they were wanted
great deal of polishing was necessary
to make them presentable.
The teacup craze has much to com-
mend it, say the enthusiasts. Teacups
are easy to keep clean, and are orna-
ments to the china closet and plate
rack; consequently, they are more
useful.
One woman who has Travelled around
the world made it point to collect
one or two cups in each country. In
Hawaii she purchased one of the
"Kamehameha the First" poi cups,
made out of the ko wood. In Japan
she bought one of the handless teacups
of satsuma. Corea, China, India, the
Philippines, Russia, and the different
European countries, were all repre-
scented with a characteristic cup.
Another woman globe-trotter went
a step farther and collected one COM
plete tea set in each country, so she
has teapots as well as teacups, includ-
ing the Russian samovar. Each tea
cup is marked with the name OF the
country and the coat of arms or crest
of the ruling power. Sometimes she
gives delightful tea parties, transport
ing her guests to China, Japan OF
Russia, as the spirit moves her.
A young matron has among her we'd
ding gifts what she calls Marriage
Set" 1t consists of cups and saucers,
each one presented by a distant friend
who knew of her penchant for teacups.
Each cup is decorated with the foraI
emblem of the state in which the donor
lives, and underneath is an appropriate
quotation.
OF course, the California teacup and
saucer are decorated with yellow
escholtzia, commonly called California
peoples. In gilt letters on the cup are
the words, Love but only her."
An engaged girl is the proud pos
SCISSOR of an Engagement Set" which
shows much originality. These teacups
and saucers are also decorated with
| flowers and the monogram Of the re-
cipient. On the pansy cup is the we'll
| known quotation, 'Panzies Tor
thoughts" The dainty forget-me-not
| cup says, Forget me not" On the
rose cup are the words, MY love is
like a red, red rose" On the holly
| cup and saucer are numberless bells
strung together with the red berries.
This cup appropriately reads All went
merry as a marriage bell"
other quotations which have been
transferred to the dainty china with
a photographic pencil are the follow
| ing: '"To love her was liberal edu-
cation" Love must needs be blind;
'None knew thee but to love thee"
and many similar thoughts.
Some Of the leading china stores are
showing these teacups with floral en-
blems. A space is left for the letter
ing, which can be easily added by US
ing mineral colors and afterwards mr.
| ing. Sepia, iron reds and gold are al
good colors. other cups are shown with
quotations. These cups come In all
sorts Of odd shapes and sizes, but the
most popular are the diamond and
crescent shapes.

Sagements' stamped at the top, with
a bow-knot and forget-me-nots under
meath. The bow-knot is outlined with
thin blue silk ribbon. the same as is
used for the flowers. There are seven
pockets embroidered with forget-me-

ribbon for hinges. These cases are

One of the most elaborate Jewel

is padded with a layer of cotton, in
which rose sachet powder is sprinkled.
1t is lined with chamois skin and
bound with pale blue silk braid. Three
four-inch pockets at each end and two
oblong ones in the middle space are
bound with silk braid and closed with
flaps, tiny pearl buttons and elastic
loops. A simpler case is made of
linen embroidered with forget me-nots
and lined with channels. Butterflies
embroidered in colors are also popular
for jewel cases.
Some of the prettiest photograph
frames to be seen this season are made
of MORE and ribbon embroidery. One
especially dainty frame is made of
whlte more with purple violetS embroi-
dered with the thin silk ribbon. The
frame is bound with white satin ribbon.
Glover blossoms and the thistles are
also much in vogue for this work.
Sometimes spangles Of tiny beads are
introduced into the design in bowknot
or circle, or are dotted here and there.
Tinsel cord is occasionally used for out
lining.

the pins can be thrust in the sides. The

Some of the imported gowns show
that this work has been appropriated
by modistes for decorating afternoon
and evening costumes, which is a relief
among all the appliques, insertions and
passementeries. One of the daintiest
evening gowns is of cream MORE and
chiffon embroidered with forget-me-
nots and bow knots. Even the cream

ribbon embroidered on the stole ends
as are also the cream MORE slippers.

Like the bead fad. the place OF which

Each time there is a revival of this
fine art there Is some new wrinkle to

laundering qualities, was the favorite
material for the foundation. Now
satins and moires are preferred, al

VACCINATIONS OF A GOD.
Living Men Supposed to Represent
a Deity.
From the Tour du Mond.

From the Tour du Mond.
NJ. de Batz was recently made a
tourney through Mongolia, where he
met one of the four great incarnations
of Buddha that the Mongols and their
haif-brothers, the Bouriates of Siberia,
call Houtoukta or Bogdegueguen. The
influence of this managed Is very great
and Russia sends to his court in the
chief city of Mongolia, Ourgas her
most accomplished diplomats. The
other three incarnations live in Tibet.
the best known being the viceroy OF
Tibet, who lives in the sacred city or
Lassa. When one of these divine men
dies the monks assemble and the as
trologers consult the stars to discover
the child 10 take the place of the de-
ceased, the child in whom God viii
incarnate himself once more. 1t is not
known who told the Bouriates that the
Car is a god, but there is no doubt
that many of the people believe this,
although it is a curious fact that the
Car is not considered the incarnation
of a god, but of a goddess, the soul of
the goddess Dara-la la Blanche having
entered the body of Catherine II. and
having been transferred from imperial
body to imperial body. The Mongols
also claim that the Chinese Emperor
is an incarnation of the divine.
One frequently finds in Tibet and
Mongolia many other incarnations OF
less Importance, although they are
equally venerated. There are living
gods whose soul only is divine. and
whose body is subjected to all the
miseries of humanity. to suffering and
to death. AS soon as one of these per-
son dies the soul of the god Is re-
incarnated In the body of a child, born
at the time of the others death. Dur
ing the past year / lived for several
months with the Buddhist monks who
people the monasteries of Siberia. l
was told that living god thirteen
years of age reigned over the district.
No Russian is allowed to see this
divinity, but on the eve OF my depar-
ture from Tsougal the old chief OF the
monastery wishing to give me last
proof of his friendship offered to pre-
sent me to the man-god. After some
little preparation we proceeded to the
home of the deity. who awaited us
on the threshold of his house. The
name of the god was Loupsane Loun-
dok Tambi Nina, which translated
means spirit faith and sun. The ex-
preston Of the boys face was grave
and refined and handsome. 1 seated
myself near the god and asked him
about his studies, to which he replied
that he studied chiefly the language
of Tibet and without neglecting Mon
golian, was taking lessons in Russian.
Most of my questions were. answered
by the attending lamas, and was told
that when grown the child would visit

tries which We're dominated by the

Suffice. or the practice of immolat-
