Irish Harvest Ruined BY Storms.

What promised to be one of the b .st
harvcsts that Irish farmers have en-.
joyed for many years has been ruincl
by the disastrous storms and floods
which have prevailed throughout the
north and west Of tho country during
the last week or two. Grain that had
been cut and stacked in the fields has
been swept away, and even large quan-
titles of oats and hay in stacks have
been blown away by the wind. Catt.c
and sheep have been drowned in large
numbers and a great many farmers
have been ruined.
The damage is worst in Derry, IT,
rome, Donegal, Carlow, Roscommon and
Galway. There was a watcrspout :;
few days ago near Derry. which filled
one of the reservoirs that supplies the
town with water and caused it to
burst Fortunately the millions OF
gallons of water which it contained
were caught by another reservoir low
cr down, and the city was saved froEl
what might have been a great disas-
ter. AS 1t was all the low lying streets
were flooded and there. has been great
distress among the poorer inhabitants
A large part of Strabanc. the chief
town of County Tyrone, has been un-
der water and relief has been carried
to the poor in boats which navigated
the main streets The farmers along
the Finn and Mourne valleys have suf-
fered great loss. The floods were S.

SETTLED A HARD CASE.
Woodward, Okla, Mother Will Care
for Daughter.
(From Mondays Daily)

(From Mondays Daily)
Two men, one Of whom was the
husband Of girl wife who has come
with them from Woodward, Okla,
and the mother of the girl present
ed hard case for City Attorney
Miller yesterday afternoon.
The mother, an elderly German
woman, evidently used to compare
tive poverty aud to hard work, came
here several days ago to hunt up
her daughter who had gone away
with the brothers against her wishes.
The brothers, two nomads OF uncer-
tain or no occupation, had come here
with the girl overland In a'coyered
wagon and were camping In the west
part of town. The wife, who is no
more than a girl, had been sub
jccted to life, at best, Of hardship,
had had no companions save the two
brothers, and no advice or attention
from older women. Her mother fol-
lowed them here and yesterday want
ed to take the girl home with her so
as to give her care she needed. But
tho two men refused to allow this
and threatened violence II an at
tempt of any kind were made. So
the mother came yesterday afternoon
to the city attorney with these facts
and much more OF the story.
1t was plain from every stand
point that the girl should be taken
away but the case presented diff
culties which made it at first inn
possible. The mother and her daugh-
ter. with the two men went to the
union station yesterday afternoon in
the hope that something might de-
velop which would allow her to leave
with her daughter. But no Interior
ence could be made to break the
hold OF the men The train finally
pulled out without any OF them and
all four returned to the camp. The
mother later went to the hotel where
she was stopping.
Late yesterday evening City Attor-
ney Miller and officer Hughes made
another effort in behalf OF the girl
and this time by vigorous assertion
Of authority, they induced the men to
consent to giving her up for a time.
She was then allowed to join her
mother at the hotel here and they
will leave this evening.
