GRANGE AND THE PRESS.
IN Ohio Idea That Might Well Be
Adopted In Other States.
Especial Correspondence

Especial Correspondence
About two months ago the publishers
# the Graphic News of Kenton, O., de-
ICED that the grange organizations Of
he county ought to be represented, and
veil represented, in the local newspa-
er. Suiting the action TO the idea, the
publishers set apart two pages to be
lsed each week by the grange organiza-
ton in telling of the doings of the farm
'rs in the promotion Of knowledge and
ulture and, if they chose. in preaching
hc principles of the grange. The pub
iShers suggested that each subordinate
range in the county should appoint
range correspondent to represent his
respective organization in the double
age grange department. The Pomona
gauge of the county and the fourteen
subordinate oranges accepted the prop
Sition. The result has been that the
double page in the Graphic News has
been bulged every week with timely
md exceptionally well prepared grange
news. Each subordinate grange has
its regular column or two. and each
every week. TO heighten the interest
Of the grangers in this work the pub
fishers offer three handsome prizes TO
the three oranges that should during
period of eight weeks provide the most
best and newsiest matter for the
grange department The liveliest in
terest was shown in the contest The
result is that the grange, heretofore sell
dom thought of and little known in the
county, has received so great an ad-
vertisement that 1t has grown and is
now one of the most powerful. if not
the most powerful. organization in the
county.
An enthusiastic grange spirit has
been developed, and the people of the
city of Kenton have taken greater
interest in the affairs of the farm. All
of this tended to prepare for a most
hospitable reception there for the Ohio
state grange, which met at Kenton
during the second week in December.
Now the proprietors of the papers
have proposed TO the grangers that
they leave the pillow for day and take
possession of the editorial rooms of
the paper for one issue to give the
public an idea as to how the farmer
would edit whole newspaper" The
Pomona grange of the county accepted
this proposition, elected corps of
farmer reporters and farmer editor
In chief and announced its readiness to
take charge of the sanctum sanctorup,
for one edition

BAD ACCIDENT AT A AEaERAL, Six Perss Are Serious Injured. HEARSE IS SMASHED IN Horses Became Unmanageable and
 One of Hacks Overturned. ' The Injured Included the Father. Moth- CT and Sister of the Dead Child,
 Whose Body Was in
 Hearse.

Baltimore. Md. April 1s.-Just after the starting of a funeral procession today. one of the hacks overturned and six persons were injured. two of them seriously. The funeral was that of 4 year-oId daughter of F. l.. Hoffman and the injured include father mother and sister, who, with two others. were in the hack, immediately following the hearse.
 Just how the accident occurred. no one seems to know, but when the ve- hicle went over on its side. the horses became unmanageable and smashed the back of the hearse. Catherine Hoff- man. aged years. was taken from beneath the other four persons .n the overturned hack with her chest crush ed. The physicians are unable to say at present whether she will survive.
 Edward Eek. aged 3s. in attempting to quiet the struggling horses, was knocked down and trampled. He was removed to his home in an uncon- scious condition. The little body of Bertha Hoffman was finally taken to the cemetery accompanied by single hack, the occupants of the others that had formed the procession having aban- doned them in the excitement following the accident.

FRINGE HELIE IN PARIS.
Declines to Discuss Runner That He
 Waa Secretly Married.

Paris. April 1s.--Prince Helie de Sa- gan. who arrived at Cherbourg and disenbarke ed early this morning from the steamship St. Paul. essayed to re- snrne the secrecy which he unsuccess- fully sought to carry out in the Uni- ted States.
 Instead of coming direct to Paris, he left the steamer train at Evereux, about slxty-five miles from the city, after having requested his fellow pas sengers not to mention his plan. At Evereux he resumed his journey to Paris by automobile.
 The Prince declined to grant an in- terview to the newspaper men who finally discovered him. and refused to jnerit puhIlshed by The Cride Paris that he and Madame Anna Gould already were married.
 The passengers on the steamer. with wh om the Prince freely intermingled during the voyage, say that he told them that he regretted he could not entertain them In Paris as he expected soon to leave that city. going probably to Italy. Some of the passengers ada ed that the Prince did not act like a married or engaged man. being devot- ed to young English girl throughout the. voyage.
 The French newspapers generally ignore the de Sagan- Gould affair. sx- cept where thsyyridicule the Prince on account of his reported interviews and his conduct in the United States, and express the hope that the information al farce" will soon be ended.

American Tobacco Company VIII Not

American Tobacco Company VIII Nos
 Be Dissolved.
 < New York. April 1s.-There IS apsos iutelv no foundation for report thai the American Tobacco Company is ahout to be voluntary dissolved'f ac- cordinR to a statement made today by Caleb c. Dula, vice president or the company.
 MT. Dula's statement was made after the return to the city of James B. D,Ilxe. after a visit to California. Mr. Dula declared that the investigation Of the connpany's affairs by the govern ment had resulted in showing "Unmis- takably that the company has not in any respect violated the Sherman anti trust law" or any other law.
 This story of voluntary dissolution of the American Tobacco Company Is absolutely false and without a shadow of foundation" said MT. Dula.
 ~The company's counsel and attor- neys in the pending suit of the gov ernment are not only not frightened by the evidence gathered in that case but they advise that the full disclos- ure of the affairs of the American Tobacco Company made by It's officers and employees in that case. shows most clearly and unmistakably that the com pany has not in any respect violated the Sherman antitrust law or any other law and that the result of the iitigation is bound to be victory for the American Tobacco Company"

TEXAS STORM OVER
AVENUES OF TRAFFIC WILL BE
 REe-oPENED.
There Have Been na Trnfns in From California or Out in That Di- :. reetion Since Last Friday
 Morning

Fort Worth, Texas, April fs.--The in- dications tonight are that the storm which ahas prevailed for the past sev- eral days in North Texas Is about over, and with no more rain avenues of travel will be reopened within two or three days.
 The Texas and Pacific Trans-Con- tinental Line is cut in two. there be- ing no less than eighteen serious washouts between this city and Baird, 140 miles to the west. There has been no trains in from California or out in that direction since Friday morn ing and railroad oficials do not ex- rect to reopen traffic before Tuesday.
 The St. Louis and San Francisco has lost miles of track between this city and Brady and one great steel bridge over the Leon River is reported to have been destroyed. The Frisco Otfi- cials are making no effort to operate trains, traf1c having been abandoned entirely on the Fort Worth division.
 The Rock Island has abandoned its Dallas Fort Worth service entirely son account of soft track and the cuts cav ing in. which rendered the use of tracks too dangerous to be attempted.
 At the passenger station of the Texas and Pacific here hundreds of people are waiting for the traffic to be re- opened.
 Telephone and telegraph wires are down and there Is no way to colnmu- nicate with points west of Weather ford.
 At Waco the Brazos River reached its high water mark at p. m. today when the gauge showed thirty-n nve rect East Waco was inundated by the breaking of a levee. Farms in the lowlands are greatly damaged and hum dreds of head of livestock have been drowned. The situation Is serious there and the worst of the rise is yet to reach that point.
 The Cotton Belt Railroad mas lost many of its bridges and it Is not at- tempting to run trains.
 The Texas International Railway IS badlv crippled The city water works at Waco were damaged to the extent of $50.o00. gt
 The crest of the flood reached Fort Worth about noon today and two hours later the water began to recede. the rainfall ceasing tonight. At the time the city park and vicinity was inun- dated to a depth of about ten feet The tracks of the street railway com nany leading to Arlington Heights was washed out for a quarter of mile and comnnunica tion with that section of the city was thus cut off. Between Fort Worth and North Fort Worth, where the packing houses are located, inc water reached a depth of six to seven feet.
 Fully 5000 persons, principally or the poorer classes, were driven rom their homes in the submerged district. Many of these are being cared for to- dav by charitable organizations at the expense of the city.
 The reservoirs and mains of the wa ter works system were overflowed with inc muddy water of the river and De- fore they can be cleared 1t Is feared considerable sickness may result
 While an accurate estimate of the roonetarv loss at this time is impossi- ble if is believed that the loss will exceed a million dollars.

SITUATION IN HAITI
PRESIDENT NoRD ALExIS's REIGN
 OF TERROR.
DestttutiOn Prevails on Every Hand and Ragged Soldiers Swarm Streets Begging PiteOusly
 for Something to Eat.

Port-au Prince, Hayti, April 19-More than three weeks have elapsed since the savage shooting of political pris- oners. variously estimated at from twenty-seven to forty-eight. sent the warships of four nations scurrying to Port au- Prince.
 Their arrival put the seal of security on the lives and property of foreign CTS. and since then at least outward tranquility has prevailed. While there have been many arrests of natives sus- pected of being in sympathy with the late revolution and political prisoners continue to be brought in, in patches from interior points, there have been no more public shootings. Indeed, the government denies that any more exc cutions have taken place. This, how ever. Is incredible, in view of the fact that many persons are known to have been dragged from their beds at night and that all trace of them has been lost.
 I'm the executions of March IS. last President Nord Alexis achieved the double purpose of obliterating as many of his foes as he could lay hands on and striking terror into the hearts of those who were beyond his reach Since then his name and that of his ferocious Lieutenant General Jules Alexis Coicou, who personally directed Cne slootihe pt t''V Pf % "N ing some of his own blood relatives are only mentioned in whispers. All Hayti trembles before them. Alexis has made the significant statement that if he Is not permitted to end his term of office unmolested he will, rather than submit to deposition, write his name on the scroll of fame in the blood of such a massacre as Hayti has not seen since the days of Dessalines. once known as Jean Jacques l. No one doubts his ability to carry out this threat which Is understood to be in tended as a deterrent not only to rev. olutlonists, but to any attempt at for elgn interferences in the affairs of Haytl.
 All agree that Hayti. during her hun dred and i've years of independence has not shown great capacity for self-gov- ernment and the affairs of the island
