In Huron knows some boy or girl thus
assisting themselves. The people of
Huron honor such deserving students
and are always ready u lend them a
helping hand.
The college Authorities do all in
in their 20 wer to assist such ambitious
young yeople, giving all the work of
the college which can be done Ia this
way to students. Last year between
30 and 40 young people earned part Of
or All Of their board from work given
by the college Itself.
Opportunities for self help nave
multiplied since the people have be-
come acquainted with the character of
the students. At present IL may be

Huron il he is willing to work for 1t.

There was something doing"
in Miller Friday night about II
o'clock, when u lively hail storm
visited this locality. Tie only
damage done was a smashing of
windows lights all over town.
The storm came from the sonth-
west. and hail stones fell about
the size of--well, as big as you
want them. The reports give all
kind OF sizes. The largest this
reporter could find shortly after
the storm was about the size OF
a walnut, but they were big
enough to cause everybody to
hustle out of bed and stuff
clothes, pillows, etc, III their
windows. In some eases screens
protected windows, while in
Others the largest hail stones
went right through the screens.
Nearly all business houses with
vest fronts had large windows
broken.

help themselves along. Usually they
are not trained to any special work
and must do whatever offers in odd
jobs for he money they earn. Mix
ing cnws, tending horses, cutti1g lawns
attending to furnaces and doing init.
or work for halls and large buildings
are some of the jobs which the boys
seek. DOR q hou ework Is about the
onl, kind Of work which 10 open 10 the
girls.
Since the college was establish d at
T! Huron, iiys years ago, nearly half of
the students whn have after ded have
supported themselves in part AMI
several have supported themselves in
college altogether.
One interesting case of roor boy
determined To have an education was
a young Swede, alone in the world,
who had no money wherewith to pay
expenses. lie came expecting 10

more dillicult he had only a poor com.
mon school education and had to
begin at the very bottom. No work
seemed TO oren to him, 80 he offered
to do girls work in the kitchen. He
cooked, washed dishes and did honse.
work and go well did he do it that his
employer kept him two years, giving
him board and room for this work,
done out of school hours. He was
studying for the ministry so that his
tuition was only one-half the usual
amount. This with the cost Of his
clothes and books constituted his only
extra expense. He worked ut all
kinos of hard jobs during the vacation
SIM earning his board as before and
saved enough during these three
months to pay his cash expenses dur
ing the J ear. Later in his course he
preached in a neighboring town and
was abl, to support himself on his
salary and at the same time TO continue
his slHdies. He il now worker in
the home mission field In South OAK
ota.
Another young man who is still at
tending college is good example OF
the boy who mist hustle for odd jobs.
He gets his room by cutting the lawn |
and doing the chores for man in

dishes for the college boarding club at
a fixed price per hour and makes his
other expenses by milking cows and
horses for different people in
town. Last summer vacation he made

DENIES A REPORT.
Farther Than st. Louis on His
Coming Trip.

Princeton, N. j., April 2.-Former
President Cleveland made the follow
ing statement Wednesday night rela-
tive to his intended visit to st. Louis
to attend the dedicatory exercises of
the Louisiana Purchase exposition:
Il have had no intention of going any
farther than ST. Louis, and intend re-
turning as soon as possible by the most
direct route, and yet in some way it has
been given out that was to go to the
Pacific coast and visit Colorado and
California, and don't know how many
other states and territories, and in
consequence. of: this / have received
numerous letters from good people
living in those localities making re-
quests based entirely upon the truth of
these reports. 1t may be amusing to
those who start such rumors, but it
produces reverse effect on those who
are made the victims of such an absurd
canard"

DESTRUCTIVE TORNADO.
strOying Property and Causing
Loss of Several Lives.

Washington, Ind, April 4.-One of
the most destructive tornadoes in
years swept over southern Indiana
shortly after noon Friday. Great dam
age was done in this county. The
storm came from the southwest and
after crossing White river swept
through the country, carrying barns,
houses, trees and general destruction
with it. At the Wathen district school
40 children were eating their dinner.
One end of the building gave way and
fell inward. Those present were on
the opposite side of the room, but q
child named Carrie Smoot was struck
by flying brick and fatally injured
and several others were badly hurt.
Alexandria, Ind, April 4.-During
storm and high wind here Friday
afternoon Oscar Cummins was perhaps
fatally injured and his ten-year-old
daughter was instantly killed by fall
ing tree. He and his two daughters
were returning from short visit to
a neighbor and found the water over
the road. He carried one child over
and had returned for the other when

tries, Russia on the east and the
United States on the west. The lat
ter from population of 3O,00o.o0O
had risen to SO, 0O0, 900, and no one
knew what number its population
eventually would reach. The United
State also had taken the lead in all
the works of progress and civiliza-
ton.
These two forces, acting on Europe,
were likely to render necessary a
union of the different European coun-
tries, which would completely change
the geographical situation, to the
universal advantage of Europe. The
senator added that he foresaw and
predicted the twentieth century will
perhaps see the solution of many
problems.
Race Problem Uppermost.
"The mixing of the white and black
races" he continued, brought about
the war of secession in the United
States and the liberation of the
negroes from slavery, but this had
not harmonized or amalgamated the
two races, which hate each other
now, perhaps, more than ever before.
s'The United States probably will
be the first to give us an Indication
how to deal with such grave and inn
portant questions which Europe must
meet throughout the two immense
continents of Africa and Asia"

Prof. William Roscoe Taylor, of
Harvard university, was the only
American delegate present, but
others are expected to arrive. An

ian, and all the vice presidents are

though it sent many delegates.
