Tornado Freaks Told by kansan.

kansas City, April 22.-The crop
of tornado freak yarns from Sturg-
con and vicinity has begun to ripen.
A man of alleged veracity just back
from the devastated region tells the
Columbia Tribune some fairly strong
ones as to happenings of which, as
the Tribune puts it he had ocular
evidence"
For example: The Roberts home
near Sturgeon was a seven room
house. 1t was literally carried away,
with the exception of the foundation
and the floors. Undisturbed on the
floor of one of the rooms, however,
were two rocking chairs, spool of
thread, thimble and two baskets
containing eighteen dozen eggs, not
one of the eggs being even cracked.
In the yard of the Roberts place
the tornado blew the spokes out of a
wagon wheel leaving the hub on the
axle. The rim of the wheel and the
tire we're found in lake at LARA
bee more than mile away.
One of the carpets was found in
the top of a sycamore tree at LARA
bee. He also saw straws driven an
inch into a cedar post.
E. S. Sentney, the banker at Stur-
geon, had two large pens filed with
corn. The pens were blown down
the corn was shelled and shucked
The grain was lying on the ground,
but there wasn't a cob to be seen

Jonah'S Tomb.

The site of Nineveh is almost per-
fectly level. But adjoining the wes-
tern wall are two huge mounds con-
cealing the burial places of the great
est kings of Assyria. The lower or
southern mound is occupied by a
mosque and a village of considerable
size
Its name is Nebi Yunus, or the
Prophet Joseph, for in the mosque is
the tomb in which Jonah is said to
have been buried. The age of the
tomb is uncertain, yet probably 1t
dates from long after the Hebrew
prophets time. However, the place
is now sacred, so sacred that pill
grims visit it from afar.
rode up the steep, narrow streets
of the village to the mosque, writes a
correspondent of the Christian Her
aid, and to the amazement of the ma
tiyes ! dismounted and entered the
mosque yard. A crowd of excited
men quickly surrounded me- To a
priest I explained that had come to
see the grave of Jonah, and with a
motion of the hand 1 made it under
stood that he would be rewarded.
Removing my shoes I followed the
priest through a dark passageway.
There he pointed to wall and said
that the tomb was just beyond. l
wished to enter the prayer room
from which the tomb itself might be
seen, but the place was considered
far too sacred for my profane feet.
However the few Christians who have
been permitted to see the tomb may
look only through small window in
to a dark chamber in which cloth
covered mound is scarcely discern
able. It is said that no Moslem even
will enter the inner shrine.-Los
