smart one was seen yesterday with
a white linen suit. The hat was of

gray speckled wings, over which fell
a pair of softly shaded green wings.
The hat was the shape of a big bell.

A Striking Phenomenon.

One of the most striking phenom-
ena of Southern progress is the wide

voting out of saloons. The proverb-

of drinking, but actual prohibition
has made more Roadway in the South
than in New England itself.-Roch-

STORM AT LANEVILLE.
Negro Boy Killed and Much Damage

Demopolis, Ala, April 7.-(Special)
News has been received here to the
effect that the neighborhood of Lane
WILLIE, about fifteen miles east of this
city, was visited by a cyclone Friday
morning. One life was lost and a num-
Der of cabins blown down.
Col. Joseph B. CARRIER. who was an
eye witness to the storm, gives a
thrilling story of it. He says his at
tention was first attracted to what ap-
peared to be a dense smoke, but 1t on
ly required a very short time to recog-
nize the funnel shaped cloud" which
signifies a cyclone.
Every human being around Mr.. Gar
ber's store sought safety in bitches. In
the meanwhile the storm approached.
A negro cabin stood in its path and
this was picked up and estroyed.
A negro, the only occupant of this
cabins, was instantly killed. Half of
his face was blown away and it was
some time before 1t was found.
Nearby, in another sabin, a crowd
of crap shooters" were busily engaged
but this cabin was not touched by the
storm.
A flock of sheep were out on the
pasture where they received the full
force OF the wind. and were all killed.
The storm passed within a few hum
sdred yards of Mr.. CARRIERS store, and
spent its force on the negro cabins on
his adjoining plantations.
