Two Churches Damaged.
John Boriskie Of Smetana was In

In these places where the green bolls
were whipped on. Outside OF these
whirls the bolls were not Injured.
He said Thompson creek overaowed
all the bottom farms and much Of the
corn planted along this stream Is al.
ready souring. He thinks fully half
OF his corn on the creek win be ruin

tinues the loss win be greater even
than this.

Weather Conditions


For the first time since the great
storm Of August Is and II. reports
from regular weather bureau stations
have come In. but unfortunately too
late for the publication Of the
weather chart. The storm Il now
central over Northeast Texas. but has
apparently decreased In energy snd
seems to be moving northeastvard
over Arkansas. The progress Of the
storm has been remarkably slow.
From the Galveston reports there can
be no doubt that the center Of the
storm moved inland over Galveston
Island. west Of Galveston. in . north
northwesterly direction and probably
curving TO the northeast over East
Central Texas. The lowest barometer
at Galveston was 2s.se inches at
a. m. on August II. and at Houston
2s.21 inches at i:35 a. m. on the same
day. The lower reading Of the
barometer at Houston shows that the
center Of the storm passed nearer
Houston than Galveston Galveston.
however. had the higher wind veIoci-
~. which was ninety miles an hour
at a. m. because normally the winds
are stronger on the coast than In the
interior. due to less friction. The
storm was attended by unusually
heavy rains in its northward passage
and rain Is now falling in Northeast
Texas. In portions OF Louisiana and
Mississippi and In Arkansas. Okla
homa. Tennessee. Missouri and East
ern Kansas. Copious rains fell In
the eastern half Of Texas in the past
few days. Accumulated amounts en-

ALL REPORTED SAFE.

The Bryan people who were storm
bound" on the coast have all been

anxiety was felt for their safety and
the good news that all are safe and
well is a matter OF rejoicing for all.

 The absence of crime is due pri- marily of course 10 the elevation of sentiment by the tragic crisis of war. There's no place in our minds for things that are base and vile while we have before us so many examples of heroism and sacrifice and this ap- plies tO classes whose state of mind is not always fit for close analysis. When a man IS flattered that he pos sesses an admirable quality that he knows he totally lacks he immediate ly burns to possess it. Thus the tur- hulent clements of the population took to their account part of the praise that was bestowed upon Paris for it's bearing at the outbreak of the war and they seem to be really taking no little pride in helping to justify it.
 Secondary causes are the elimina. ton of the crimetproducng elements
 misery and vice and the turning of passion from its usual objects to the frontier. There was never less m's- cry in Paris In normal times man. unfortunate people are out of hte| reach of charity; at present charity in the name of relief, acts automati-| cally and these people find it far sim-I pler to be good than to be wicked
 "The early closing of cafes and the elimination of night restaurants haye| forced orderly habits, diminished temptation and vice. Many people thus forcibly introduced to way off living that has done them good wiuI never again return to their old night life,
 The suppression of the sale of ab sinthe Monsieur Laurent thinks, has not yet had time GO produce its el| feet, and he does not attribute the de crease in crime in any degree to this cause. One of the most conspicuous cases of swindling since the war be- gan was that of an eX-captain ruined by absinthe-he hadn't been able toI get drink for three months. The ultimate effect of the reform he eX poets will be considerable but the ihdn W lN0D HUI dI udtbIt Hta Htt'ii debased by absinthe has not yet had time to recover.
 "As for the 'Apaches' the street ruifains who give us so much troub e l ordinarily, they have disappeared" |" hel says. Many of them are at the front where they are redeeming many al fault. others are employed on the de. fence works of the eutrenched camp. the rest of them seem lack of inspira- ton for their customary misdceds. for we hear nothing Of them
 'I am no prophet Monsieur Lau-i rent concluded, and cant say what permanent effect the war may have upon crime, but l am hopeful l think that France will be so busy with serious things that the task orl the police will be lighter than before After the sears of war have begun to disappear l think the gaiety and animation of Paris will come into its own but l look for the elimination forI years to come of many friyolities anal different forms of forIy.'
