Kansas City. July 22.--The last di. rect news out of Galveston by way of the Associated Press was at l0.3o o'clock this morning, at which time great storm was raging which threatened to repeat the catastrophe of 1900.

 Houston. Tex, July 22.-Reporss of storm of hurricane proportions at Galveston have reached here over a telephone iinn. All other wires are reported down. Two bathing pavilions are said to have been wrecked. and Bettison's fishing piers were swept away. The surf is jumping over the seawalls in several places The wind has reached velocity of 60 miles an hour.
 The appearance of the storm along the gulf coast was indicated before daylight this morning, and at o'clock he wind was blowing at the rate of about 45 miles an hour Later it in creased in velocity. but dispatches from Galveston up to l0:30 o'clock did not indicate any damage In that eity and harbor.
 Shortly after that hour the tele- graph companies reported all wires into Galveston had been lost and the only means of communication was over a single telephone wire. Over this circuit 1t was learned that at Il o'clock the wind had attained a velocity of 60 miles an hour and there ms been some damage along the beach. In addition to tho wrecking of the bathing pavillions 1t Is reported that three sections of the railroad bridges were damaged and no trains can go in or out of the city. September &, 1900, the great Gal weston storm overwhelmed the town.
 The first reports were a few hun ired drowned, then 1000 and 1t was not until several days after the storm sLat 1t was estimated that the loss os life was between 5000 and 5000, and the loss of property moro than ss2,o00,000.
 So strong was the shock and con tinued pressure of the waters, that several large stons and brick build lngs near the water frone were entire ly demolished. Not even the foun- dations remained. The city had about 10000 inhabitants.
 Galveston began at once to rebuild and It was decided to protect the city by sea wall The work began fin 1904 and one year four months and A days were required to finish It. The wall Is 17,593 feet long, 16 feet nigh. 16 feet wide at the base and Ave feet wide at the top Immense granite blocks are piled to the sea ward side. On the land side earth has been filled in and driveway con structed. This wall is believed suffi- cient to protect the city from any storms which are possible in that part of the world.
 The city was raised while the wal was being built. Immense dredges with pumps filled in low places with sand and water Tho water ran ofI and the sand remained.

School Troubles Aired Again

That school trouble that aroused
considerable feeling in the Mon.
day schools in Ward township, was
again aired in Logan Saturday be.
fore the county school examiners
at the school building. Mr.. Shuck
had preferred charges against j.
| G. Huls, the principal of the
schools Of that place, for the revo-
cation of his certificate, and the
school examiners sat as a jury and
heard the case. The school ex-
aminers are Mr.. +. f, Harsh, Mr..
ROLAND Bright and Miss Rose
White, the latter having been re-
Gently appointed to fill the vacancy
made by the resignation of her
brother. Mr.. Huls was repre-
sented by two attorneys, Judge
o. w. II. Wright and Hon. II. Nj
Whitcraft, and Mr.. Shuck was his
own attorney to prosecute the case.
The charges were immortality, in
competency and slander. About
twenty witnesses were examined
and not much testimony adduced
that would tend to sustain the
serious charges made against Mr..
Huls by the complainant. One of
the charges of immortality made
against the defendant was that he
bet on the election. The case
against Mr.. Huls was not strong
and Mr.. Shuck moved that the
case be continued until he could
get more witnesses present, but his
motion was overuled, and the ver-
dict of the school examiners was
that the accusations were not sus-
tanned and the certificate of Mr..
Huls was not revoked. 1t is hoped
that the troubles in the Monday
will cease now and let the
schools go and do good work for
the rest of the school term. 1t is
indeed regretable that such muss
has been stirred up, and should be
settled and forgotten as soon as
possible.

Rufus G. j. Woodgeard, son of
Andrew and Moilie V. Woodgeard,
was born Nov 10, 1908, died Feb.
13, 1909. Age three months and
three days. He leaves father
and mother, four brothers and
seven sisters and a number
of relatives to mourn their loss, but
we know that our loss is his gain.
He has one brother and sister that
proceeded him to the Spirit World.
Charley came into this world
bringing joy and peace with him,
but his stay with us was but
few days, we feel that he was
only loaned to us, but God saw fit
in all his wisdom to call from our
home one of his jewels. Jesus
said, "Suffer little children to
come unto me for of such is the
kingdom of heaven" 1t seems
hard to take from us one of our
loved ones, we feel his place in
our home can never be filled, but
Jesus brings these comforting
words to our sad hearts, ''that if
we were faithful and true we can
be where he is like unto his own
glorious body"
Death may the bands of life unlose,
But can't Dissolve our love,
Millions of infant souls composed,
the family above.
take these little lambs saith he,
And lay them in my breast,
Protection they shall find in me,
In me be ever blest.

G. j. Wcodgeard take the means
