STORMS IN EUROPE.

A devastating storm which mas
covered four countries, either in part
or in their entirety, is sweeping the
southwestern part of Europe. Damage
to means OF communication has made
the report meager.
Rivers throughout France are Swol'
len, some Of them out Of their banks.
Damage has been done by the wind
and the signalling system OF the
Eifiel Tower has been destroyed. The
storm. which started more than forty
eight hours ago, in western Italy,
swept through upper Italy, Swltzer,
land, southwestern Germany and
France.
Rain was falling in torrents in varl-
GUS parts of France yesterday, accom-
panied by a cyclonic wind. From Le-
Mans. Limoges, Valenciennes aud
Yyeto came word that the storm
was raging in those centers. The
lower portions OF the towns were inun-
dated and many people had been COM
PEELED to flee. In the rich vineyard
and farming districts crops have been
washed out.
The Seine has risen rapidly. The
river Moselle is between six and seven
feet above its normal height and is
filed with wreckage The Rhone IS
very high and parts OF the valley are
flooded. Stock has suffered heavily.
Near Mines the meadows were under
water yesterday and boats were utili-
zed to carry people from their homes.
From the coast cities came reports OF
marine disasters. At Hayrc small
craft were blown from their moorlngs
ard were badly wrecked or carried to
open sea. Passing ships put into port
to escape the raging waters OF the chan
mel.
From Metz, on the German frontier,
it was reported that the Moselle river
there was rising and that heavy rains
were sweeping portions OF the frontier.
From Geneva, Switzerland, came SIM
liar reports Of high winds and heavy
downpours. Genoa was the center OF
the Italian section OF the hurricane,
and advice Yesterday say the storm has
not abated. There we're numerous
shipping disasters and the lower part OF
Genoa is flooded. All shipping sched-
ules are disarranged.

LIFE SENTENCE.

Asbury Spicer, who has figured con-
spicuously in the Breathitt county, KY.
feuds for many years, was yesterday
given a life sentence in the penitentiary
for the murder OF his nephew, Asbury
Fugate. The murder was committed
last spring. Fugate was killed in a
general fight last June, in which his
mother was wounded, and Spicer was
aided by his 16-ycar-old daughter and
12-year-old son. Spicer was one OF the
chief lieutenants !for the late Judge
James Hargis. leader in the Breathitt
county feud OF seven years ago, which
eliminated in the assassination OF
James COckrill and DIR. b. d. Cox.
Spicer swore that Hargis had hired him
to kill several Breathitt county men
and confessed TO his part in the deaths
of CockriIl and Cox. Following thi:
confession many attempts we're made
to assassinate Spicer, but he escaped
each time with slight wounds.

Is Your Appetite
Always Good ?

Why can't you eat as you used to , Sim
ply because your liver doesn't do it's work
properly. Its business Is 20 take bile out
of the blood, which acts as Natures
cathartic, but your liver is sluggish and the
bile accumulates too fast, and you feel
worn out, tired and lifeless, and each sue
ceeding day brings no relief. The use of
Smiths Pineapple and Butternut Pills will
regulate your bowels, stimulate your liver,
and promote healthy, vigorous appetite.
Mr.. RAY w. DIXON, of Sanford Me writes:
!" have gained ten pounds. l can now eat all
kinds of food"
Try them and you will be convinced that
these little vegetable pills are indeed a tonic
and stmulant to the functions of the liver
Then your brain will be active, your mind
clear, and health conditions again estab-
lished and you can eat anything. Get
your liver right Smiths Pineapple and
Butternut Pills act gently but surely on the
liver. Physicians use and recommend,
They form no habit. You should always
keep them on hand. These little Vegeta-
bic Pills will ward off many ills.

DID PREACHER DIE FIRST? ?
IF So, Mother of Murderer Profits by
Mrs, Armstronq's Will,

Trenton, n. j.. Nov. 29.-John Sears,
the half blood negro who killed the
Rev. Amzi L. Armstrong and his wife
last Wednesday, was not mentioned in
the will of either of his victims. Rev.
Mr.. Armstrong mentioned neither
Sears nor his mother in his will, but
the will of Mrs. Armstrong provided
that Rachel Sears, the mother of the
murderer should be provided with a
home and clothing during her life.
The old negress had worked in the
family of Mrs. Armstrong thirty-three
years.
The question as to which will shall
be given precedence will require ju-
dicial determination as to whether the
Rev. Mr.. Armstrong or his wife died
first.
With the evidence now at hand II
appears probable that the decision will
be that the Rev. Mr.. Armstrong per-
ished first and that his wife survived
him by a few moments. This would
entitle the Sears woman to home for
life

New York, Nov. 29-The first hear
ing before the congressional commits
sion that is investigating the so called
ocean steamship trust failed to bring
out any evidence showing that the for
eign steamship lines had formed a gi-
gantic combination to restrain the de-
velopment of an American merchant
marine by means of rebates, coercion
of shippers and power of lobbies at
Washington.
Three members of the committee
were present, Congressman J. Van
Vechten Olcott, chairman of the com
mittee, and Congressman LOngworth
and Garrett.
The only witness called was George
L. Norton, editor of the Marine Jour.
nal. His testimony was brief. The
committee will hold four other meet
ings this week in this city.
