MARkABLE.

Appleton, Mimi, March "a cy-
clone struck Louisburg, eight miles
southwest of this city, completely
demolished the business district, con-
sisting of about a dozen stores,
wrecked three grain elevators and a
grain depot, and unroofed or damaged
nearly every house in the village.
Latest reports say that seven per.
sons were injured, part of them seri.
ously.
The wind, which had prevailed all
day, reached high velocity toward
evening, and at $50 o'clock became
cyclonic in it's force. Beyond the dam
age done at Louisburg, no other storm
reports are received from this vicin-
ity.
From Breckenridge a relief train
was dispatched to Louisburg as soon
as the news of the storm was received,
and from Appleton doctors went on a
hand car to give medical assistance.
Madison, which is twelve miles south
of the stricken village, also sent aid
to the sufferers
The direction of the cyclone, it is
reported, was from southeast to north
west, and beside the high wind that
prevailed, it gave little warning of it's
approach. That there were not a
number of persons killed by falling
walls and flying debris is considered
remarkable.

BAD DAY FOR
THE BOOKMAKERS
Special Dispatch to The Star.


NEW YORK. July 21.-The layers had
one Of the worst days Of the season yes
terday. and they breathed sigh of relief
when the session ended. Only In the clos
ing event, when All Right won, unbacked
at 20 to L. did they get anything like an
even break In the other five events not
only were the winners heavily played. but
the placed horses were nearly all supported
for the positions they attained at the fin
ish Paradoxlcal as 1t may sound, It is
fact that with the average OF winning fav-
ortes far below the mark, hardly layer Is
ahead of the meeting.
The victory of Sue Smith IN the opening
race was the worst blow of the day. She
was backed from skies to five to two, and
won easily. while Sly Ben, at I to 10 for the
place, and Edith James, at even money
third. also carried large commissions. CHM
ney Sweep at to /, and The Mighty at
even money for the place, ran first and sec
ond in the second race, both being heavily
backed. Whimsical. in the third, caught
many of the big bettors at post time. Near
Iy all the play In the fourth race was for
Alan-a-Adale to win at around even, and
Devout's support to run third offset the
money on Sinister for q place.
The closing event would also have scorch-
ed the ring, but for Quadrille's running-out
tactics. He was high at fours and closed
a to 2, Quadrille led by two lengths turn
ing into the stretch, but bore out so far
that the horses following were enabled to
catch up and he was beaten in the run
home. Banker. a three year-old colt by
Belvedere-Lady Hawkstone, running In the
colors of James Galway, ran a remarkable
race in this event. He was off seventeenth
and failed to improve his position for half
the journey. Smith got him going through
the stretch so fast that he finished third,
beaten less than two lengths for the purse.
1t Is understood that Harry Payne Whit
ney will have a starter in the Brighton
stakes of $4,000 tomorrow. He has three
elgibies-Battle Axe, Pegasus and Queen
of Hearts. The last named was cut down
In her first race and will not start again
for some time. 1t is probable that Battle
Axe will carry the light blue, brown cap"
in the rich event. The Whitney represen-
tatives 1t is said, were shipped from Sara
toga yesterday.
Both Sue Smith and Chimney Sweep were
bid up after winning their races Dave
Johnson carried the former from 81 800 to
81 800 and Frank Brown ran Chimney Sweep
from 81 800 to s.. 500. Both were retained by
their owners. The Brighton Beach Racing
Association is long way ahead on selling
races at this meeting

faithful. who braved the heat to see their
favorites. turned out yesterday at the Mar
quette grounds and went away dissatisfied,
for after seven sessions neither side could
boast of the victory-9 to being the final
score.
ST. Patrick failed to put a full outfit on
the field until nine minutes of 6. and then
1t was in rather crippled condition. Bill
Marceron, their star backstop, was on the
bench with bruised foot sustained in
Tuesdays game, and John Forester had a
bad case of his left finger Lombardy took
up the backstop position, and after some
persuasion Forester went into center.
while Mcdonald did the slab honors. Mr..
Lee Hillary was sent in to do the box work.
but Gallagher took up the remaining task
where he left off. With one out in the end
ing of the seventh Gallagher quickly made
the side out.
Marceron relieved Lombardy, who went
to the right plot because he could not hold
McDonald's delivery, for two passed balls
resulted, doing some damage.
st. Martin led off at the stick. one run re-
sulting. With two out Dugan raced out a
swat for the second station. and Gerard

st. Martin duplicated the ST. Patrick fea-
ture In the previous round and. instead OF

Greenbacks a lead of two runs In the

CLOSE RACE FOR
THE CHAMPIONSHIP

The race In section is the prettiest IN
the history of the Sunday School League
and closer than in any OF the other amateur
leagues In the city. While Calvary appears
to have a good lead. with two more games
won than its nearest rivals, Gunton, the one
game IT has yet to play is with a strong
team-last years champion Fourth Presby-
teriens. 1t Is remarkable that the four
teams In first division have all lost an
equal number OF games-six-and that Con-
perhaps. a better chance OF winning than
FC urth. as the former meets only one first
division team in its remaining five games,
while Fourth, with fouf games to play has
the present leaders and Congregational to
contend with. Sheckells of Congregational
is In excellent form just now and so is
Waller and Symonoski of Calvary. Hutch
ii son and Clarke. Gurton's and Fourth's
mainstays were hit hard in their last
81 mes but Gunton meets three second d.
vision teams. On form It would appear that
Gunton has the best chance to win out \
tie is not improbable, which would be the
second in the three years of the leagues
existence. Following are the teams the
leaders have to meet In the remaining
games:
CaNary-Fourth.
Gunton-Gurley. st. Stephens and Sixth.
Fourth-Gurley. Sixth Calvary, Mount

Aloysius Defeats st. Stephens.

traled the colors of st. Stephens Institute
in the grass at the White Lot last evening.
With the score to ) against them the
Aloysius players in the last inning collected
enough more bingleS to net them total
OF ten runs, two more than their opponents
had acquired. At this juncture the crowd.
which was worked TO fever heat in the
excitement of the contest thought 1t saw
chance for interference and invaded the
field. 1t was impossible to dispense IT., so
the umpire called the game.
st. stephens outbatted and outfielded the
AloysiuS club. but Edwards wildness and
the failure to connect with Handiboe'5 twis-
tiers at proper moments We're the cause of
their defeat. Edwards Hoaters looked as
big as foot balls as they approached the
plate, and only alert and intelligent work
on the part of the fie!ders proven Ell Il more
disastrous outcome. When 100 late MORT
arity was called to supp!ant him IN the box.
Little Al Handiboe did his Dest. and that
best was sufficient. His chance to win his
own game with the bat came in the sew
enth. There were two on bases and TWO
were out. with the score S to 9 Al picked
out one to suit him and lined 1t into right
field and the two on bases scored. II was
then that the crowd interfered.
Corrigau's UnaSsisted double play and
Nolins pretty catch in right fed were the
features. The score:
