A tailor with more ingenuity than
education had occasion recently to or
der two large flatirons of the variety
known as the "tailor's goose" He"
scratched his head in some pelplexitN-
over the proper plural form to use.
"Two tailor's gooses," he muttered.-
"That doesn't sound right at all. Two.
tailor's geese-that sounds worse yet. -
He puzzled over the question till it,
began to worry him, but suddenly a.
bright idea popped into his head. He
sat down and wrote
"Messrs. . Please send
me one tailor's goose. P. S.-You may
send two instead of one.'

Woman Killed at Kenosha.

Kenosha, Wis.-Mrs. E. Printz of
South Kenosha was killed and many
people injured in a tornado which
passed through the suburbs of Kenosha
July 10. Houses were blown down,
trees uprooted, barns collapsed and
crops ruined by the force of the storm
Mrs. Printz was about to become T.
mother She was i'll when the tornado
struck her home and died from the
shock.
1t is said that the path of the storm
was a half-mile in width and in this
territory everything was practically
ruined. 1t is impossible to estimate the
loss.
In Kenosha proper, where the storm
was very severe but did not attain the
velocity of a tornado, a hotel was
struck by lightning There was a
panic among the hotel guests, but they
escaped in their night clothes and no
one was seriously hurt.

iured 40 or more persons and did thou
sands of dollars worth of damage. The
storm entered the city from the south
west. The first place struck was the
city market and the Grand Rapids Cen
trail league baseball park, adjoining.
The market was crowded with farm
ers and their teams, as trading had just
begun. After the storm struck, the root
of the ball park grandstand was lifted
off and scattered about the market. A
panic followed. Horses were killed and
a great many persons were hurt, some
so badly they had to be sent to the
hospital. The police reserves and fire
department were called out.
The storm then swept across town,
striking the best residence district.
The storm struck the market place

A terrific thunderstorm which had
been approaching had given no warn
ing of danger from wind, but suddenly
whrling balloon cloud appeared in

toward the clustered produce wagons.
