Patronize the Advertiser.

Newspaper readers should make it
a rule to patronize those who advertise
and are not afraid to publicly invite
everybody to come and see the goods
and prices. When a merchant invites
you to patronlze him, rest assured that
he wants your trade and will give you
the best goods for your money. Fur
thermore, what he says in his adver-
tisements he is prepared to fulfill and
his promises can be relied upon. To
make false epresentation-having
neither the goods nor the inclination
to make them good-means a loss of
patronage, and no honorable merchant
will be guilty of such conduct.

HASTINGS, Ncb., May 2G.--A series
OF heavy storms, two of which dcvcl-
oped into the worst tOrnadoes that have
visited southern Nebraska for years,
have passed over portions of Clay,
franklin and A,arDey counties. Elf.
teen persons are known 10 have lost
their lives, and over n score of persons
were more or less seriously injured.
Near Norman, at the home of Daniel
McCurdy, number of relatives and
friends were spending the day, and not
one In the house escaped death or seri-
ous injury. Two miles south of Upland
German Lutheran services were being
held in n schoolhousc when the storm
struck and demolished il, killing four
or the occupants, including the minis
ter, and inJurng a number of others.
The storm was equally destructive at
Fairfield, but the people were warned
of Its coming and sought cellars for
snfety. Six dwellings were blown to
pieces at that place, but their occu-
pants escaped injury, with II few ex-
cepuons. Every dwelling and outbuild.
Ing in the path of the tornado was
blown to pieces, and the financial loss
thus far accounted for will reach about
100000.
The family OF Peter IIocklnson, nine
In number, living near Norman, were
separated by the storm, but afterward
reunited, II being feared at first that
most of them had been killed.
There were two tornadoes, both orlgl.
mating within mile of Fairfield. The
first one moved to the northwest and
the second off TO the southwest The
one 10 the northwest did the greater
damage, and all the fatalities seem to
have been in It's path, The greatest
loss of property was sustained by farm
ers The heaviest individual loss report
ed is that suffered by Charles Taylor,
who places the damage 10 his stock
farm including cattle and horses killed,
