Wind Storm Moves Barn.

The people of this section of the
county were kept in a state of ex-
element on Saturday evening, for
fear of a repetition of the terrible
storm which swept over this part of
the state about this time last year.
The sky gave every appearance Of a
severe storm, but it passed off with
only a strong wind and heavy rain.
The only damage of consequence that
we heard of was at the farm of A. M.
Linnevold in Franklin township,
where his new barn was blown about
thirty feet from its foundation, and
set down practically uninjured.

of Mr. and Mrs. Howard Lord, was

two boys, each 4 years old. who
were playing wild West in the yard

The police have in custody Joseph
Kane, son of a neighbor of Lord s

young Kane when the girl was kill
ed, told the police Kane had fired

Okas says Kane held shotgun

Watch me kill her. I'm going to
shoot; hold up your hands,
The little girl looked al him and
said; You wouldn't shoot me- I'm

EVELYN THAw's TESTIMONY.

Harry X. Thaw's cup is now filled
to overflowing. The child wife,
whose girlish ways and extraordinary
beauty saved him from the gallows
for the killing of Stanford White, has
turned against him when liberty was
in sight. Ii was certain that in case
he succeeded in convincing the court
of his sanity and bade farewell to the
Matteawan insane asylum, he would
have nothing more TO do with Evelyn,
and that she would be left TO shift
for herself The Thaw family de-
clined to make financial arrange
ments or make any promises whatever
for the future.
As might have been expected, the
young woman determined to keep her
husband under lock and key rather
than see him at liberty and living
upon the fat of the land while she
stumbled on toward the gutter. 1t
was foolish for the Thaw family to
assume that she would do otherwise.
Evelyn Nesbit may have been a bad
girl. She could not have been 9TH
erwise owing to her early training
and association with such men as
Stanford White and Harry Thaw.
But she certainly was no lower in
the scale of human degradation than
either of them. No one will blame
her for the stand she has taken
when she was about TO be cast off
AS the matter now stands, il is
doubtful If the gates of the Mattea-
wan asylum will be unlocked in or
der that the Pittsburg millionaire
may pass into the free air and sun
shine of the outer world
