FINDS ENORMOUS SHORTAGE
Audit of Dougherty's Accounts Made
Public-May Reach Nearly
100000.

Peoria, ILL.,, JAN 3.-The report of
the Everett Audit company, on the de-
falcations of N. C. Dougherty was
made public at meeting of the school
board Tuesday night The total short,
age for seven years is $541, 46S5O,
from which will be deducted approx
mately $4,000 for unauthorized, but
warranted, expenditures. Everett
gave it as his opinion that the total
shortage for IS years would fall
slightly short of $1,O0O,OOO, stating
that large amounts of forged script
had been found in 1888 and 1885, but
no totals or estimates on these years
had yet been made. The report scaths
the officers of the board, the treasur-
ers and presidents especially, the
finance and auditing committees and
the members of the board Individual
ly. The report shows that S332,000 Of
the shortage was directly manipulated
by the cashing of fictitious script
through the Peoria National bank, Of
which N. G. Dougherty was president
It declares that the bank is liable for
every cent of this amount

MISERY FROM FAMINE.

Northern Japan.

Victoria, B. c., Jan. 4-Thousands
are starving in north Japan on &C
count Of the famine there according
10 advices brought here by the steamer
Empress of Japan. A government re-
port says Miyaga, Fukushima and
[wate provinces, with a population of
,s21,557 are confronted by the worst
famine since the deadly one Of so
years ago. So great is the calamity in
Miyaga that famine investigators re-
port that ''the sentence of death has
been passed on one-third of the people
Of that province" Already thousands
in those three provinces are Obliged to
eat shrubs, roots and bark Of trees to
sustain life. and million people are
in extreme condition. The misery aris-
ing from the famine is indescribable.
Committees of foreign residents have
been formed to arrange systematic re-

TORNADO PROVES FATAL.
Several Persons Killed During Wind
storm in Albany, Ga.-Much
Property Is Ruined.

Albany, Ga, JAM "A tornado of
terrific force passed over Albany at
1880 o'clock Wednesday afternoon,
coming from southwesterly direction
and spreading ruin and desolation over
portions of a dozen blocks. Several
persons are dead, others will die, as
the result of injuries, and many are
more or less seriously hurt The
known dead are: Ben Jones, negro
machinest in the employ Of the Vir-
ginia-C Carolina Chemical company, and
Jake Johnson, nine-year-old negro
boy. Among those whose injuries
probably will prove fatal are: Luta
GLADDEN., Jesse Davis, Annie Davis,
Jessie Woodall. The list is still in
complete owing to the fact that much
Of the destruction wrought was well
beyond the city limits Reports from
the tornado after it left Albany have
not been received. Hundreds Of ne
groes in the city are homeless and
many have lost their household effects.
The injured are being cared for and
efforts are being made to secure shell
ter for all. This is difficult, owing to
the scarcity Of all kinds Of dwelling
houses in the city. Under direction
of Mayor Ralston relief will be Sc
cured and promptly furnished those in
the greatest distress. 1t is difficult to
estimate the property loss. The Vir-
ginia-Carolina Chemical company is
the principal sufferer, its destroyed
buildings and machinery having been
worth probably 100000. It is safe to
say that the total damage will exceed
S15OOOO. Very little of the destroyed
property was protected by tornado in.

81 had no trouble gettin' into the
house." said the reformed burglar in
reminiscent mood. 1T was -one OF
the old fashioned kind which had not
been modernized, and a 4-year-old
could have opened the windows. The
female party that owned the house
had the reputation of bein' mighty
rich and sunthin' of a miser, so /
thought there might be good pickin's
for me in the way of old silver and
the like. She had married a young
man about a year before my visit
who was known to be sunthin' of a
high roller.
The first room | struck that seem
ed promisin' was the dinin' room
filled up with massive mahogany fur
niture like they don't build nova
days. | had no trouble in openin' the
sideboard, where | found a few real
silver spoons and blamed lot O. plat
ed trash that wasn't worth carryin'
away | was just about to leave the
room when out flashed an electric
light and | found myself starin' at
the barrel of a pistol. A young fei-
Ter in pajamas held the gun, and his
hand didn't shake a bit. He had
business look in his eye, so when he
told me to throw up my hands done
so without no argument.
"'How much of a haul have you
nader" he asked pleasantly. l told
him only a few spoons, and that it
was a low-down trick to pinch man
who hadn't got enough to pay for his
trouble.
"He acknowledged there was a hoss
on me, and then asked me IL | was
a amatoor, or could | blow up a
safe without rousin' the neighbor-
hood. IF you have the materials with
you to crack a safe says he, why,
you an nell divide the spoils.'
81 acknowledged that l had come
prepared to open anything in the
hardware line, and then, with his gun
p'inted, he backed me out of the room
to one adjoinin' where there was q
safe in the wall. Then he told me to
go to work and sat down in a chair
with his pistol turned my way.
well, sir, to make the story short,
| opened that safe with this pelican
superintendin' the job. There was
wads O. long green in tin box that
would choke a COW, likewise diamonds
and other sinners. The boss o. the
business sorts 'em over careful, and
when the box was clean empty he
hands me over some old breastpins
and napkin rings and a babys silver
mug and told me that that was my
share, while he pockets the rest as
calm as ye please.
"'Now, then, about face and don't
kick. for this gun is likely to go OF,
says he, and heads me back to the
window through which I'd entered.
Cit through there, and be quick about
It, son. he says, and then, as il to
add insult to inj'ry. gives me push
that sent me fyin' inter the back
yard ready to choke with rage"
The reformed burglar here uttered
some very unreformed profanity as
the picture of that night rose to mem
ory.
''When I'd got on me feet I heard
a pistol go off in the house an yell
for help and knowed who done 1t.
There was nothing for me to do but
light out. 1t seems that young man
was the old party's husband. Shed
kept him short of funds and he took
this chance to make good. Now, did
We ever hear a meaner Job played on
hard working man than he played
on me?"
