Jacques
JIM, THE WEsTERNER.

There isn't a bit more excitement in Thomas I1awson's famous story, "Frenzled Finance" than in the breezy play Jim the Westerner' which Polfs own stock company will present at the Jacques this week. They both treat of the same subject, of the thrilling life on Wall street and in the stock exchange. The play will make a hit this week, for 1t is a thoroughly American drama, and has to do with the American mania for making money, Jim. the westerncr, is a young man who comes east, thinking that his fathers rich gold mine is value less. His father is about ruined, and while in New York learns that the mine possesses rich vein of ore One of the acts shows a brokers office where the stocks are being bar gained for. It is a scene of wild ex- citement, the like of which can only be seen in the stock exchange or the wheat pit. The stocks go down until Jim arrives. He sends them up un- til they reach their former value and his father is saved from financial ruin. Richard Gordon and Miss Edna Bruns will have the leading roles and tlieir support is excellent. On Tuesday afternoon souvenir photographs of Miss Bruns will be distributed. Popular prices.

New Minden, H., Hit by Tornado and York, Ill.,, Devastated by Wfnd- storm--Houses, Bridges and
 Crops Destroyed.


 York, Ill.,, Devastated by Wind-
 storm--Houses, Bridges and Crops Destroyed. CHICAGO, June 10.-Twenty eight known dead, thirty-fve persons injur- ed and one missing constitute the list ! of casualties resulting from storms of ] tornado severity which swept southern Illinois, Indiana and Kentucky during the night.
 These fatal visitatlons came in the shape of cloudbursts, high winds and electrical disturbances. Houses were swept away, bridges demolished and entire crops destroyed. Because of the stoppage of telegraph ic communication information is mea- ger concerning the actual loss of life and damages, but it is known that in Gradyyille, Ky, twenty-one persons were killed and one is missing, while in New Minden, H., i've were killed and three injured; in West York, H., two were killed and thirty hurt, and in Graysville, Ind, two persons were in jured.
 Gradyville is the worst sufferer. It Is a hamlet of 150 persons in southern Kentucky. eighteen miles from rail road. A cloudburst deluged it and the surrounding country soon after mid night, Of the twenty-one dead there many were drowned. ~~
 The five dead and three injured in New Minden, H., were victims of tornado which struck the village at 6 o'clock New Minden is seven miles north of Nashville, III.
 @ York, H., on the Wabash river, southwest of Terre Haute, Ind, yield ed its total of two dead and thirty in jured a little before midnight, when a cyclone devastated the town.
 The storm in Gradyville began at 10 o'clock at night and increased in in. tensity until half past F o'clock in the morning, when its crest was reach ed. The cloudburst turned Big creek, a stream flowing past the hamlet, into a torrent, and it quickly overfowed its banks and poured great volume of water upon the village.
 The dead in New Minden are MT. and Mrs. Henry Weihe and two chil- dren and a child of c. s. Steumeyer.
 The storm struck the northern DOT ton of the town, and most of the houses destroyed were country cot tages. In the center of the town the German Lutheran church was badly damaged, the steeple being blown down and the roof torn off. The | church bell was hurled through the large pipe organ. On the north side of the church parochial school was demolished.
 Particulars of the cyclone in West York are meager. The known dead | are Henry Rock and Mrs. Maiinda | Finkston, who was found dead in the branches of tree some distance from her home.

OUR UNCLE CALLED.
Death Again Enters the HERALD
Family. Our Uncle Of Decatur,
Illinois, Dies.

Again the gloom of death has been
spread over the home Of the HERALD
family. This time it comes by the
death Of our mothers brother, Elijah
Coombs. OF Decatur, Ill, who passed
away Sunday, May -, 1907.
For several weeks past our beloved
relative has been afflicted with heart
trouble, but had seemed on the road to
recovery In fact, letter written by
him, was received by his sister-our
mother-Saturday evening, stating that
he was improving and would pay
her a visit during the coming
summer With this good news inst at
hand the message announcing his
death which came Sunday evening,
was a most painful and unexpected
shock
While it is hard to give up our
loved ones yet, the end of all men is
Death and when one dies as this good
man did, prepared to meet his Maker,
even in the deepest grief there is con-
ISOLATION that he has gone to his reward
and it is left with us to meet him
again il we but choose the Right Way
