TORNADO INCIDENTS.
Some of the Strange Happenings of
Marquette Storm.

Marquette, Kan, May 12.-Some
odd features were noticed in connee-
ton with the tornado:
Olof Elvin and wife were thrown
so feet and alighted sitting with their
arms around each other.
Two watches were found at Mar
quette, one having stopped at HOB
and the other at 1905 o'clock.
Mrs. Beata SwensOn was carried
nearly half a mile and dropped near
the cemetery.
When the storm was over Gust
Anderson crawled out of the debris Of
his house and told those about him
that he was all right. An hour later
his dead body was brought to the
morgue.
The NJ. 2. parsonage was complete
ly destroyed but Pastor Smith and
family were unhurt.
Clyde Norris literally sacrificed his
life. Those at the Norris home heard
the storm coming and Clyde helped
everyone safely out of the house. His
mother was sick at the time and had
to be carried out.
A very strange freak of the storm
was witnessed by, Judge Sward and
several others from Mcpherson A
steer was walking around with a four
inch board driven into its back. The
board looked to be imbedded very
solidly.
A man whose name was not ascer-
tanned was caught in the swirling
cloud and carried three-quarters of a
mile and set down in the cemetery,

DIAMOND IN HIS GLOVE.
Aristocratic italian Steals a Brooch

New York, May Ian Italian Civ
ing the name of Count Carlo, is under
arrest after an exciting chase through
Broadway crowds. He is accused Of
having attempted to replenish his fort
tunes at the expense of a West Twenty
third street jewelry shop where he was
being shown a lot Of fine stones. A
81 500 diamond brooch claimed by the
shopkeeper was found in his gloves.
With an impressive air and aristo-
cratic mien, Carlo strolled into the shop
and stated in French that he had left
his ancestral chateau days ago to make
glad the heart of an American heiress
whose smiles he had Won on her trip
abroad during the winter All of this
was preliminary to the request that he
be shown something superhne as a gift
Tor the girl Nothing seemed quite good
enough and finally the count" was
conducted to a burglar proof cage
where the best gems in the shop were
exhibited. He selected several fine
and asked a salesman to accompany
him to q prominent hotel where he had
deposited $40 600.
Apparently awaiting the salesman,
the count" strolled 1anguidly to the
street. When the clerk reached the
door his customer had vanished. A
quick look at the jewel casket showed
that one of the brooches had gone like
wise. Two or three clerks rushed into
the crowded street and luckily over
hauled Carlo four blocks distant, slow
~ walking along Broadway. One of
them unceremoniOusly grasped him by
the collar and called him a thief. Carlo
shook him off easily and broke into a
run. A crowd gathered at his heels and
he was soon halted by a mounted Off
cor.
After he had been locked up several
hours Carlo told an Interpreter that he
came to America three weeks ago from
Monte Carlo where he had lost $1,000,
all he possessed.
