TORNADO SWEEPS
 OVER TEXAS TOWN
HOUSES ARE DEMOLISHED, AND ROBERT SINCLAIR HAS SCANT- LING DRIVEN THROUGH BODY BY THE TERRIFIC WIND.

Dallas, Texas March LA special to the News from Greenville Texas, say: During the rain and hail storm that prevailed in this section today, a tornado swept through the Neyland community, six miles east of Greenville, leaving death and destruction in it's path. The first point in the path of the tornado was the coun- try home of John W. Haney, three miles northwest of Neyland. His two-story resi- dence was demolished and his brother-in- law, Robert Sinclair, was instantly kill ed A scantling was blown through his body. Mrs. Haney had her collar bone broken and two children, Fred and Ethel were quite seriously injured. MT. Haney had all his night clothing stripped from his body.
 A number of other residences in the community were injured more or less. In the residence of J. B.

 Discusses Warrior Improvements. Colonel Bankhead consumed the greater part of his time in discussing the inn provements on the Warrior, claiming that while the locks were large enough now and would always be, that that was a question he had nothing to do with.
 He ridiculed Hobsons naval bill and reiterated his statement that if single democratic senator or representative could be found who was in favor of it, that he would retire from the race and leave the field clear to his opponent. He said that the passage of such bill would be construed by other nations practically declaration of war
 Refers to Good Roads Measure.
 Colonel Bankhead then referred to his good reads measure and stated that it would be eminently more beneficial to ex- pend a small percentage of this vast sum wanted by Hobson for his navy in improv- ing the public highways.
 He took up in detail his different acts, criticised by his opponent. and answered them.
 Although allotted one hour and thirty minutes Congressman Bankhead consumed scarcely more than an hour. He closed with an appeal to the voters to consider the claims of himself and his opponent, and to vote for what they thought to be for their best interest.

Russians Think Operations of laps In Korea Will Be Hampered Because of Having to Trans
 port Cavalry.

St. Petersburg, March 1.-The charges against the Japanese in using explosives forbidden by The Hague convention find no echo in responsible circles here. The Japanese are acquitted on that score by high naval officer who holds a very re- sponsibe position and who said today:
 'The accusation against the Japanese of using explosives to produce poisonous gases, is based on a misconception. They are employing the same explosives as other armies and navies. It is notorious that the bursting of a melinite shell be- tween decks generates fumes from which the men are liable to asphyxiation, but the Russian shell is no better or worse than that used by Japan. We have not complained in this respect, whatever we may think about the manner in which the Japanese began hostilities."

Japs VIII Be Hampered.


 Paris, March 18-The St. Petersburg correspondent of the Echo de Paris has interviewed General Dragomiroff, ex-gov- ernor general of Kieff and lately a mem- Der of the council of state, who. while making reservations, owing to lack of knowledge of the theatre of war, gave the following conclusions at which he had ar rived:
 'The Japanese will be much hampered by the necessity of making an invasion by sea. Sea crossings are always disas- trous to cavalry, which is notoriously the weak point of the Japanese troops. More over, the Japanese will need in Korea conveyances drawn by horses to which they have been unaccustomed. The Japa- nese will not be able to depart from the Korean coast as they must remain near their ships"
 The general added that the Russians must watch the Yalu river, which Is liable to sudden floods. and which it would be rseless to cross if they could not return. It is essential he said, to have a strong bridge fortified on the side where the Japanese are.

WHAT AN EVIL Is FEAR.
BY Cynthia Grey.


A little wife of 10 was told by her
! husband that she was wasteful in her
management of the home. She tried
to cut down expenses, she was young
and inexperienced, the problem was
not to be solved. He told her again
that she was wasteful. The next night
he went home and she was not there.
The little wife, her clothing and be-
longings were not in the little room.
For days the husband searched for
her. Friends and relatives knew no
thing of her whereabouts
The little wife could not solve the
problem and she was afraid.
Many an older woman has failed
to cut down expenses.
Many an older and more expert
enced wife has failed to buy and to
| cook and to manage the house with
in the husbands means.
Many woman is unsuccessful.
Many women are afraid.
Afraid, and afraid of what?
Can 1t be possible that the little
wife was afraid of her young hus-
band?
1t is a pitiful thing for a woman
TO fear the man she has vowed to
honor. 1t is a pitiful thing for her
TO fear his frown, to fear his dis
pleasure, to fear his Gliding.
Yet there are wives who are afraid.
There are wives who conceal, who de-
| eeive, who lie. because they are
afraid. This little woman ran away.
Was she afraid?
The wives who fear are not afraid
of blows. They are not afraid of
punishment. The woman who fears
her husband is afraid of an idea.
She is afraid to let her husband know
that she knows that she has failed to
do what he expected of her.
All fear is weakness and for the
woman who fears her husband there
is no happiness, no peace, no joy.
Economy is not the only problem
the young wife has to solve. But
whatever the questions she must an
| swer, whatever the burdens she must
bear, let her not fear Let her not
add to other weakness the weakest
of weaknesses, fear.

Pronerly Drcssed Feet.

The woman who dresses with taste
dresses her feet in the quietest style
possible. The woman who rides in
in her carriage may indulge her lik-
ing for fancy hose, but for those OF
us who walk or ride on the street
cars there is only one style to observe
that IS, the least attractive. The
same principle holds good regarding
shoes. The woman who owns a car
riage can afford to have her feet en-
cased in a high heeled, daintily
tipped French boot, while the rest of
us cannot afford to wear boot that
will cause any one who does not
know us to turn about on the street
to stare after us.

Wonlan's Age.

Why will women in this day of en-
lightenment continue to forget about
or refuse to tell their age?
If a woman looks younger than she
is, then she shotId be proud of the
fact that she has defied the years.
Naturally one w4uld suppose that
she would be anxious to have her
friends know about it.
If a woman looks older than she
is, she surely ought to find pleasure
in defending herself against her
looks by publishing the fact that she
is younger than she seems.
But she won't do either. And why
the matter of years is such a sensi-
tive point with women is hard to
imagine.
A woman that is as truthful as the
gospel will-will forget to consult
the Bible when she tells her age.
A woman who is ordinarily calm
and deliberate and who ordinarily
says the right thing in the right
place will stutter and stammer and
blush when any one mentions her
age. One woman can't grow old
any faster than another The years

others.
A woman who scorns deception of
any other kind will hedge" when ii
comes to telling her age.
If you ask her how old she is she
will laugh and say: "You think
am ashamed to telk don't you? Well
am not l had as soon every one
knew. And when, afterward. you
get to thinking about it you will re-
member that she was interrupted be-
fore she came to the point, and she
didn't tell, after all.
The sweetest tempered woman in
the world is likely to fly angry if she
is asked her age, and why?
1t does not make her feel any
younger to forget how old she is 1t
does not make her look any younger
and it does not make her act any
younger.
Why a woman older than "a is SC
ashamed to tell her age is one of the
mysteries. 1t is doubtful if they
themselves can tell why. It's queer
