MANY LIVES LOST AND PROPERTY
DAMAGED IN ILLINOIS, IN
DIANA AND KENTUCKY.
CLOUDBURST CAUSES
DEATH OF A SCORE
York, New Minden and Duquoin, ILL.,,
GradyviIIe, KY, and Points in
Hooser State Suffer - Houses
Blown Away by Tornado.

Chicago, June 10.-Dispatches from
various places in southern Illinois,
Indiana and Kentucky tell of severe
storms which have caused loss Of
life and the destruction of much
property.
Early Saturday the town of New
Minden, ILL.,, rs miles southeast of
St. Louis, was visited by tornado
which killed four persons and in
jured a score of others. At Grady
vile, KY, a cloudburst is said to
have caused the loss of perhaps 81
lives.
At York, ILL.,, Is or 80 houses were
destroyed, and number of persons
are said to have been killed. Be-
cause of the prostration of telegraph
wires details are not available.
The storm is said to have been
especially severe in southern In
diana, and at Farmersburg and Sui
livan much damage was caused by
wind and rain. Duquoin, Ill, also
was visited by the storm that caused
the destruction at York A number
Of houses were blown down, but no
lives were lost.
Many Killed in Kentucky.
Louisville, KY, June 10.-Twenty-
one persons are missing and the vii
lage of Gradyville, in the southern
part Of the state, is almost destroyed
as the result of cloudburst, which
sent volume of water down upon
the place shortly after midnight.
The bodies of the following had
been recovered up to noon:
| DR.. Nell, Mrs. Calvin Wilmore, Mrs.
Austin Wilmore, Miss Ada Wilmore,
Miss Mary Wilmore, Strong Hill, wife
and family, fairfield Moss, Miss Pearl
Moss, Miss Carrie Moss, Miss Irene
Moss, two sons of fairfield Moss,
Mrs. Mary Moss, Carl Nelson, Gar.
land Nelson, Mrs. Keltner.
Storm RACES for Hours.
The storm began about ten o'clock
Friday night and increased in intens
ity until 1890, when it's height was
reached The cloudburst turned Big
creek into a torrent which quickly
overfOwed it's banks and poured a
great volume of water down upon
Granville. Nearly every house in
the place was washed away and those
who met death were drowned OF
crushed to death in their houses as
they were torn from their founda
tons.
Columbia was telephoned for as
sistance and a large number of citi
zens left that place at once, but ow
ing to the condition of the roads il
will require some time to make the
trip. Every stream in the vicinity is
out of it's bounds. The cloudburs
did serious damage aside from the
loss of life, all bridges in this vi
cinity being washed away and thou
sands of acres of corn ruined.
Gradyville has population O
about $50, and is Is miles from

Winchester Presbytery.

Among other business transacted by
Winchester Presbytery at its recent meet
ing at Hambleton. w. Va, we note the
following
Rev. ]. e. Triplett offered his resigna-
ton of the pastorate of the Elk Branch
church. A paper was read to Presbytery
which has been adopted by the congre-
cation, highly commencing Mr.. Triplett
aud his work and conserving to his re-
quest for dissolution of the PASTORAL re-
lation. Presbytery granted the request.
to take effect November 80.
Mr. Robert Riddle was taken under
care of Presbytery as candidate for the
gospel ministry.
The goth Century Committee reported
that the chairman had visited and cor
responded with the churches this sum
mer, presenting Presbytery's obligation
to the Davis 4 Elkins College in seven
teen churches and writing two hundred
letters. The churches have raised 1913.
The cost in travelling expenses. printing
and postage was $25. The amount raised
all together is $447o. leaving $3.50 of the
SIS. 900 still to raise.

tIarpers Ferry and Bolivar.

Gen. Joe Wheeler's monument has been
erected in Arlington. the National Gem
etery. without the record of his Confed-
crate service being inscribed on it, There
were couple of blank lines left on the
stone where his Confederate record
should have gone. The fact was only
discovered by accident. and Miss Wheeler
was naturally indignant. Steps have
been taken, presumably by the War
Department, to cut in the missing lines.
Cabin John Bridge, just outside of
Washington, up to few years ago had
stone in the western end on which was
engraved the names of engineers who
built the bridge and some other names
connected with the work At first the
name of Jefferson Davis. who was at that
time Secretary of War. was on 1t, but
when the Civil War broke out and Mr.,
had his name chiseled off the stone. The
result is that every visitor who sees the
bridge asks the meaning Of the blank
line and upon learning the facts goes
away remembering Mr.. Jefferson Davis
connection with the work and forgetting
every one else connected with it, THIS
will probably be the case If such an
OMISSION is made on the Wheeler monu-
ment, Let me add. Gen. Joe Wheeler
ought to have been buried at Hollywood.
