THE STORM’S FURY Crops Leveled to the FE Stock Killed and Houses | Demolished. Nevada, Mo., Aug. 7.—The north part of Vernon county was visited last night by the most disastrous hail-storm ever known in this section. The storm raged in a northwesterly direction, and cut a swath about three miles in width, beating down and destroying all the growing crops in its path. At Schell City hail as large as hens’ eggs fell, breaking all the glass in windows having a northern exposure. The damage done there will amount to over $5,000. At Connelly hail-stones as large as goose eggs fell, killing stock. J. C. Nichols, living between Connel- ly and Schell City, had nine head of horses killed by lightning; another man in St. Clair county lost several head of horses and five cows. The hail destroyed every field of corn in its course, breaking, beating and twisting the corn into the ground, twisting and tearing down stacks of grain, destroying fruit trees, and blowing down some outbuildings and barns. .J. M. Wharter lost 118 acres of corn, 18 acres of millet, and 125 apple trees loaded with fruit. There are not two bushels of fruit left on trees. His house and furni- ture are damaged. T. Ricks’ oats arein a bad shape. A horse ran into a wire fence and was badly cut, and his fowls are nearly all killed. J. H.and A. A. Mans and tenants lose 400 acres of corn. J. H. Dey- bourn & Sons, 90 acres of corn; J. Jones, 75 acres of corn; James Dorris, 30 acres of corn, 11 acres of other produce, and one horse had an eye knocked out. J. Corbin loses 30 acres of corn, 200 bushels of apples and 500 pounds of grapes. John T. Nichols loses 140 acres of corn, nine head of horses killed—all he had. Widow Towne loses 500 bushels of corn, 200 bushels ofapples. J. Mayer loses 75 acres of corn. Joe Roberts lost 35 acres of corn and his house is damaged. John W. Oarman loses 125 acres of corn and Ira Kirker 250 acres. A black, funnel-shaped cloud pass- ed to the north, which was without doubt a cyclone. just north of the Osage river, about where the centre of the storm seemed to be. About 8:30 o'clock the wind shifted to the northeast and blew almost a hurricane, and the rain fell in torrents. At 9 o'clock the worst of the storm had passed. The crops between Connelly Springs and Schell City are ruined. In St. Clair county A. J. Crabb loses 35 acres of corn, 32 window lights and his house was damaged; O. L. Burch, 85 acres of corn, 25 window lights and his house was damaged. Eleven miles east, P. E. Stevens loses 60 acres of corn, 2,000 bushels of apples and house damaged. Sedentary Habits. In this age of push and worry, the business man and the professional man are alike unable to devote any adequate time to exercise. In the daily round of toil and pleasure, no suitable provision is made for that important function, and the result is that men of sedentary habits become subject to many forms of ailments arising from a torpid or sluggish liver. Constipation, sick headache, | billiousness and dyspepsia are all due to the improper action of the | liver. Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Purga- tive Pellets cure these troubles by restoring the liver to its normal eon- dition. | Tom Price, of Pettis county, one | of the most prominent farmers in Missoun, has been talking of the gubernatorial situation. We com- mend what he says to the farmers of Bates: “Glover's grain-gambling talk made an impression at first, but no longer has any effect. Asa general rule, the Missouri farmer is a pretty intelligent man, and the man who attempts to humbug him for any length of time had better come well prepared. I am giving away no! Secret when I tell you that the farm- erhas no use gor Johnny Glover. Johnny began to take a deep inter- est in the farmers too late in his life. As a general thing the farmers find it easier to give their confidence j lence and tenderness in to city business men than to city vation lawye r goes, I am inclined to think that the majority of the fi favor of Francis. Al ) 1 farmers, the men who own the land they till, are for Francis—at least in my neighborhood; but there are a few men who never owned an acre of land, and on whose plantations the men who take plenty of time to easily fall pretend that the weeds are as rank as corn, demagogue, and who victims to demagogues they are afraid of Francis—that he is too fast and experimental. This, in my estimation, is the reason why we should make Francis governor. Missouri has been going too slow. Travel over the state and you will become convinced that Missouri was cut out by aature to be the garden spot of the world, yet land1is worth $200 an acre in Illinois, $100 in Iowa and Kansas, while right around here you can buy the best land in the world for $35 anacre. We must get out of the rut we have fallen into, and an active, enterprising bus- iness man like Dave Francis is the man to lead the procession. A Woman’s Discovery. “Another wonderful discoverv has been made and that too by a lady in this county. Disease tastened its Clutches upon her and tor seven years she with- stood its severest tests, but ner vital or- gans were undermined and death seemed imminent. For three months she cough- ed incessantly and could not sleep. She bought of us a bottle ot Dr. King’s New Discovery tor Consumption ana was so mucn relieyed on taking first dose that she slept all night and with one bottle has been miraculously cured. Hername is Mrs. Lather [.ulz.”” Thus writes W. C. Hamrick & Co., ot Shelby, N. C.— tGet a free trial bottle at Walls & Holt she Druggists. The Kansas City Times’ assaults of Mayor Francis, of St. Louis, sim- ply because he is a candidate for Governor, are outrageous, shameful and inexcusable from any standpoint of a gentleman or democrat. It the same spirit that caused it to take up Crisp, oppose Phillips, stand in with the Hannibal and St. Joe railway slush crowd, and become a is constant menace to democratic har- that district. Mr. Francis is a stalwart Democrat. He thoroughly redeemed his city and has constantly fought the rings mony, and success in and monopolies that have tried so long to rule won't work. wall. Newspapers of the Times stamp, which only fight for spoils, should not let cious abuse of opponents get away with their judgment. President Cleveland, who appointed the busi- ness manager of the Times to the collectorship of this district, is a staunch friend of St. Louis’ Demo- cratic mayor, whom it was that step- ped in and warded off the G. A. R. insult precipitated by Tuttle, of Iowa. It may be that the President will now feel like condemning the insults and reproving the insulter of his St. Louis friend!

Despite the utmost reserve and discretion, however, 8 Woman is an auomaly i r ! business men, in thet g tide of business life. She may do her work as well as a man would, be as reliable. as faithful; but her presence is an inconvenience, a possible re- a busi? straint, only to be co rbalanced by the cheapness of her labor. No man who is worthy of the name can quite bring himself te trea a wor clerk as he would a man, even in this ; but in this business ungalla warfare the small courtesies of of life are necessarily neglected, and an employer who has expressed his dis- approbation or impatience without much regard to his p’s and q’s may be dismayed on finding that he has insulted a female; for the slow mas- culine mind does not yet understand that women mean to prefer equality to respect and consideration. Then, what might be called the transitory nature of woman’s work must be taken into consideration. It can not be taken for granted that every woman who has to make her living will be old, ugly and uninter- esting; therefore, marriage must be considered a possible if not probable interruption to her business career. Unless domestic life is to cease alto- gether she retires from out door vocations to fulfill her household duties. A man, on the contrary, will feel it the more necessary to keep his ge position and advance himself in his business. In the face of such econ- tingencies can an employer be ex- pected to pay equal wages? In conclusion, is it not too soon for women to demand anything of fo} the other Equality i! 5 competition; competition means a sex? means fierce and ungenerous battle, from which many a strong man emerges and unvictorious. Are women fitted to enter into such a contest as yet? Willit not be a long while before their nerves will be strong enough, their muscles hard enough, their feelings insensitive enough to make the fight a fair one? Is not nature, potent and inexorable behind the artificialities civilize tion the real bar to feminine equality after all? In the meantime it would be more prudent in women, even those term- ed strong minded, not to scorn the protection of those of the other sex who are willing to protect them merely because they are women. And in their efforts for self-advance- ment and independence let them rather ask aid, sympathy and en- couragement from their masculine fellow workers than demand an equal- ity which the world is not willing to grant them, nor or they yet ready to receive. sorely wounded ¢ of Drunkenness or the Liquor Habit Positively Curea by administering Dr. Haines’ Golden Specific.

Cincin O: With Teeth and Hands. Moran, Kansas, Aug. 9.—One day last week Columbus Carter made an assault on old farmer named | Chrisler. Carter was without weap- ons but he used his teeth and hands with terrible effect. He bit one of Chrisler’s ears partly off, chewed off the end of his nose, gouged out one of his eyes and partially destroy- ed the sight of the other. As a re- sult, Chrisler’s face presents a spec- tacle that is simply sickening. He is sixty years old and is not expect- ed to live. Yesterday a warrant was sworn out for Carter and he was arrested and taken to the residence of Justice an his preliminary hearing.
