Storm Takes Toll of
Thousands of Dollars
in Montgomery County

Special Correspondence of The Star.
FOREST GLEN, Nd, August A.
Thousands of dollars were lost all over
Montgomery county, particularly in
this section. as the result of the fierce
storm which ragged for about five hours
last night, according to reports re-
ceived here from various points. Rain
fell in torrents and was driven by a
gale almost cvclonic in it's intensity
Farm buildings were unroofed or
leveed and other property destroyed,
but probably the greatest damage was
done to the growing crops and orchards.
In the vicinity of Forest Glen great
fields of corn are today lying fiat on
the ground and the chance Of one of
the heaviest Yields in the history of
this section has been eliminated, as
much of the fast maturing corn has
been uprooted.'
Damage to Orchards.
Thousands of bushels of fruit of all
kinds was blown from the trees or the
trees themselves, uprooted or broken
down by the wind and rain. Peach
orchards are shattered and fruit which
would have been ripe within the next
two weeks will now be waste. Pear

REPORT EXCITES
 WOMEN OF DISTRICT
Because Usual Fines Have Not Been Called for, Dame
 Rumor Is Busy.

That the sporting houses in Pine Bluff are to be ordered closet and the inmates given notice to leave town, was the supstance of a report which creatsd some little excitement among the women early this morn ing.
 It developed, on investigation, that no such orders have been received by any of the women, although a mum Der of the women stated they had "heard" such action was to be taken. None of them had "heard" by whom the orders are to be issued.
 It is remarked as unusual thai .as, month none of the Wc'ren were haled into. court to pay the fine as sessed against each of them. the cus- lem of collecting fines from the wo- men having been established some years ago. It is this custom which led to the arrest of several police Or ficials at Hot Springs recently on a charge of violating the "panderlng' act. on which charge they have been placed under bond to await the ac ton of the grand jupry.

 For a young baby number of in- ner pads of soft papFr or old cloth which can be destroyed saould he provided. When one of these is soiled, wrap it up tightly in newspaper and throw it away. Wet diapers may he tightly rolled and kept in thu rubber bag.
 The two most common mistakes made in travelling with children are With respect to their clothes and their food. In the hot summer weather, for long journey, the lit- tie child should be dressed only in the sleeveless gauge shirt and diaper, With one thin outer garment A sleeveless, low-necked slip of white china silk is best, since it is much cooler than cotton, sheds the dust and can be washed out in the basin when soiled.
 It is well to change the baby's clothing as soon as the journey be- gins, in order to have the regular clean to put on when leaving the train. The little baby may go bare footed but an older child should have barefoot sandals to protect the feet from the cinders scatter3d over the floor.
 Mothers should observe the same regular hours for feeding their chil- dren as at home. One of the worst things she can do is to give the baby cakes, candy, bananas, sweet crack CTS, and the like, as so many mothers do, to keep Jim quiet on the train. This kind of irregular feeding, with unsuitable foods, together with the heat of the train, and the fatigue and excitement of travelling are very apt to upset the baby and make him ir- ritable and restless.
