FUNNY FREAKS OF THE WIND
FIyInE Trips of Two Barns InveSti-
gated by Tornado Insurance
Adjuster.

Our company said Mr.. Carleton, rs
rather liberal in the matter Of risks. We
take not only the usual fire insurance risks
in cities and rural regions, but we insure
against various acts of God and man that
are cut out by most companies. Tornadoes
and other storms are among the things
against which we protect the farmer.
About the beginning of the cyclone sea-
son in Kansas last season we got a letter
from a farmer in Kansas saying that a big
wind had come along, lifted his barn from
its foundation and set It down on the other
side Of the creek. II was not damaged, he
wrote, but he didn't want it there, He
would have to build a strong bridge to
move 1t back on, and he wanted to know
what we were going to do about II.
we sent word to one of our adjustors
to go and see him on his way back, When
our man drove up to the barn he noticed
that the barn, house and all the other
buildings were on the same side Of the
creek and he began to think that the
farmer had framed up a job on us. lie
found the farmer out in a field, made him
self known and said he had come to see
about that barn.

vas a scandinavian.
"The adjuster was puzzled and asked him
what he meant.

farmer replied,
Then the farmer took our man In a

was torn up and in one place was a deep
hole, as If something had struck II corner

TOO MUCH CONGRESS.
j. j. Hill Would Like an Adjournment

Seattle Wash, June Flames J.
Hill, chairman of the Great Northern
board, declined to discuss the report
that John F. Stevens. who has resigned
from the position of vice president in
charge of operation of the New York,
New Haven & Hartford railroad, would
enter the services of the Hill lines.
He will go to Tacoma today and
leave tonight for Portland.
THE steamship Minnesota is going
to make its home port here said Mr..
Hill. There are advantages under the
British flag which American ships do
not enjoy, yet 1 will say that the ter
minal of the Great Northern steamers
will not be at Vancouver.
I'VE are seriously handicapped on ac-
count of the competition resulting from
labor with which we cannot compete,
yet 1 will say that Seattle will be the
home port of the Minnesota.
If congress would only adjourn for
four or five years and not only leave
country would make splendid progress
on the natural lines resulting from
prosperity. l cannot nor will not say
anything about lumber questions be-
yond the fact that it has occasioned ar
UIIeasiness among the lumber1nen that
is not deserved.

DRINK LEMONADE NOW,
Tariff Increase Will Soon Make Prices
Prohibitive.

Washington, June 2.--Lemonade not
of the pink variety but made with
plenty of lemons mo Is Dutch stand
ard sugar and much mineral water, is
to be the popular beverage at the cap
itaI among the distinguished members
of the United States senate.
Following closely on the warm COLO
guys over the lemon schedule in the
tariff it developed that the statesmen
in the upper house of congress want
fine lemonade to quench their thirst
during the tariff debates.
That the beverage will be on tap in
large quantities after today is the di-
rect result of a good natured kick
registered by Senator Gallinger at yes
terday's session.
Some senators curiously inquired il
this was an antagonistic step against
the water wagon, whereupon it was ex-
planned that the demand for lemonade
was prompted by the fact that the
duty on lemons VIII soon be increased
fifty per cent and that if senators are
to enjoy the drink at all, now is the
time to get most satisfaction out of il
at least cost.
