A Tornado Struck Sedalia.

struck Sedalia about 5 o'clock this
morning, causing thousands Of dollars
damage to property. The storm cut
path one hundred and sixty yards
wide bounded by Tenth and Twelfth
streets through the town, beginning
at the extreme west end and taking
a zigzag route for distance Of a mile
and a half. Houses were unroofed,
outbuildings were demolished, trees
unrooted and a number of houses
were moved from their foundations
five to ten feet and left standing with
apparently slight damage. Many were
driven.from their bedrooms by limbs
of trees crashing through their win
dows or by the drenching rain that
followed the unroofing.

81, 800 Claim is Allowed.

Jefferson City, Mo-, April 26.-
Captain Meredith T. Moore, veteran
of the Mexican War, whose home is
in this city, will receive check from
the State Treasurer for $1,36O this
week in payment for land that was
once his property and in state. of
cultivation, near Cedar City, Galloway
county.
Captain Moore is native of Gala
way county. Some time following
the Mexican War he returned there
and established ferry between Cedar
City and Jefferson City. This he
operated for many years, and during
that time purchased strip of land,
both for ferry boat landing purposes
and for agricultural uses.
! He occupied the tract until the
channel of the Missouri River changed
and cut his land entirely away. Like
others before and after him, he took
his lots with good grace, and thought
nothing more about the matter until
about fifteen years ago, when the
Government put in dykes opposite
this city and land reformed on the
spot he once owned.
But when the Captain undertook to
reclaim the land, he was stopped by
a law which gives such accertions to
the school fund. So Galloway countd
claimed and took the new land.
There was litigation lasting several
years. Captain Moore lost in the end
because, he says, he was not able to
take an appeal to the United States
Supreme Court to this effect. But a
different ruling prevailed.
Now, after years of waiting and in
evening of long and eventful life,
Captain Moore is to receive compensa-
tion. Governor Hadley and Secretary
of State Roach looked into his claim :
most carefully. The title to the land
goes back to the time of French Oc-
cupation, and there is not the most
remote question but what he was the
most remote question but what he
was the rightful owner until the river
ran over his land.
In appropriating the money to pay
Captain Moore the Legislature, how
ever, did not undertake to settle the
legal question as to how far down in
the earth a persons title to real estate
really extends. The lawmakers were
that he had just claim and
they voted to pay.

The good dog that stays at home
minds his business usually gets his
board and the owner is willing to pay
his dog tax, but the tramp dog does
not fare so well. One queer thing
about stray dogs is that they seem to
congregate in towns and villages just
like any other loafer.
The only time to pull burdock is
just after the frost out of the ground.
At that time the whole root can be
pulled out and the one who does the
pulling will discover why they stand
so much killing during the growing
season.
The fact that farmers are buying
automobiles is the thing that will save
them from being only expensive
fad. With their acquaintance with
machinery they will be able to point
out defects and suggest remedies that
will make them necessity to any
one who has great deal of driving
to do on the roads.
The dealer will tell you that in
order to develop the manly qualities
of your boy you should buy gun
for him. This may be true in some
cases, but some of us have noticed
that these manly qualities generally
turn toward killing song birds and
other feathered friends that we hate
to lose.
The soaking rains of the few days
were needed and everyone is happy
except the autoist and the baseball
fan.
l don't like to be finding fault all
the time, but l think great mistake
is made by those who have the roads
in charge when they fail to drag
them simply because they are-not
muddy, l will always believe that Mr..
King made a mistake when he placed
so much emphasis on the matter of
dragging the roads when they are
wet. There are some parts of the
corn belt where the roads are ex-
ceedingly rough and have been for
six weeks. If had my way l would
put the drags on regardless of
whether they are dry or muddy.

Fruit Combinations trawberries
land gooseberries make 4 nice combi-
nation used in proportions Of five
quarts Of strawberries two quarts Of
ripe ooseberries. Jellysmade Of the
green gooseberries alone in which
vanilla bean is cooked has, a delight
fful flavor. Another combination is a
preserve made Of three quarts Of
strawberries to one of pineapple
chopped fine, and two oranges cut
quite small. Add sugar as for pre-
preserves and cook gently, not too
thick; this makes an attractive sauce.
Equal measures of gooseberries,
currants and raspberries make fine
jam; elderberries, which are rather
insipid alone, combine nicely with
green grapes, gooseberries, or crab
apples, either singly or in combina-
ton. Black currants are often i'm
proved by adding red currants; the
strong flavor of the black currants is
|neutralized by the red without the
flavor being entirely lost. There are
SO many delightful combinations pos
sible that it will pay one to expert
ment.
Boiled Dressing-Mix together a
teaspoonful each Of salt, mustard and
celery salt, a tablespoonful Of sugar
and one of olive oil or butter, and
three eggs. Beat all together until
perfectly smooth, then pour in gradu-
ally, continuing to beat, a cupful of
