Aprfi 20--Gov. Stubbs A KANSAS CYCLONE The Worst Tornado That Ever Hit Crawford County BY AN EYE WITNESS. Twenty-nine years ago this month April 2, 1880, the worst tornado that Crawford county has ever expehlenced crossed this county. Ag a result of cyclone four people, were killed and many others injured. seventeen homes demolished and many others badly wrecked.

Most of the damage was done In the strip of country south of Girard. Frank Laughlin, who has been connected with the Headlight repretorial staff for many years, was still in the newspaper business at that time and made a trip over the path of the storm as a newspaper reporer. "I have 8 vivid recollection of the havoc wrought that tornado," remarked Mr. Laughlin, in speaking of "I never saw such a complete destruction as there was in that storm's path." When the Storm Struck Between 6 and 7 o'clock Friday evening, April 2nd, a heavy hail storm from the northwest struck Girard and the surrounding country, and at about the same time many of our citizens were alarmed a the appearance of a funnel-shaped cloud which seemed moving toward the city from the southwest, It did not Girard however passing south of wherreach. ever it did strike it caused immense damage.

The first known of the cyclone was its appearance in the northeast corner of Osage township on Robert Cuthbertson's farm. The first damage done with the exception of tearing up the ground in a number of places and the uprooting of trees, was the destruction of the corn cribs of Joseph Keys, now probate judge who then lived just west of Lightning creek in the northwest corner of Sheridan township. It extended northwest to the house of A. T. Jones in Washington township, then crossed into Missouri, The Storm Victims The recapitulation of damage done is given below: S.

C. Saunders, died a short time after the storm. Mrs. Jones, mother of Alvin Jones, found dead with her neck broken. Abraham Casteel, five years old, died evening.

"When the two currents met it was an awful sight. The funnel shap. ed cloud dropping to the ground reminded one of the dropping of El window blind. It was black ferocious looking cloud and hid from view a light place that was behind it. "It dropped into a pond on the Robert Cuthbertson farm taking up all the water it started out on its path of desturction.

The pond was left without drop of water. "It traveled toward Girard in straight line for 8. few miles when it veered to the and passed Glrard about a mile to the south. En The Storm's Path. "Those who made the path of the cyclone witnessed many things that would have been unbeleved if they had been told.

The path of the storm showed that after it had sucked up all the water In the pond on the Cuthbertson farm it had poured it down apparently all along its path. The path was muddy and looked like a mortar bed while the ground was wet It had the usual appearance that follows EL rain storm. Hedge fences were torn up by the roots and a complete swath was made through fences as smboth as if they had been cut out by hand In one place those traveling over the path found a two story farm house of about four rooms, two up and twb below partly blown to piece8 and on one end partly supported by itself and in the window a salt barrel had been wedged 88 neatly as it could have been done by hand. The salt was undisturbed. chickens Were Plucked.

Chickens were found running about without feathers having been picked a8 clean as if they had been in the hands of a cook. Stock consisting of cattle, hogs and horses Wel'e found all along the path of the storm killed and crippled. On one farm the owner was blown into the cistern in an endeavor to get but of way of the storm with his family. When he -dropped Into the cistern he found that a large cider barrel had beat him to it and as there was but little water in the cistern he remained there until the storm had passed over him. His account of his experience was interesting.

Timbers Flew Over Him He stated that he could look up and see timbers and household goods flyIng over the mouth of the elstern land the only fear he felt was that some of the the the heavy timbers would drop down into the cistern on top of him like he and the cider (barrel had dropped a few moments before, Freaks of Storm the Hough farm the hub was torn out of one wheel of a buggy that was standing in the barn yard, and while everything was a wreek about it the buggy never left its tracks and was as sound as ever with the exceptions of the one wrecked wheel. On the same farm a light wagon was lifted from the ground and set up in the top of an apple tree but was not damaged in the least, was on this farm that S. C. Sanders was killed by the storm. He was a carpenter and contractor and was engaged building house and other carpenter work on the farm and was out in the orchard when the storm struck the place, He was picked up and blown against an apple tree striking the trunk about the middle of the body crushing several ribs and otherwise injuring him internally.

He died before the sound of the storm had disappeared in the east. Cut Swath Through Timber "Upon reaching the Cow creek timber southeast of Girard the eyelone cut a swath through the timber about one hundred feet in width as clean as could have been done by an experienced woodman. It was reported by some of the country people liv. ing in farms cast of the creek that baby crib with the baby had been picked up 011 the west side of the creek and. lodged in a tree at one side of the path where it was found by those residing near the path of the storm who started out to view the damage render any ashand sistance that they could.

"The baby attracted attention by Its crying. The newspaper wig were making the Journey of the route taken by the storm were shown the tree in the branches could be seen an old fashioned crib snugly fastened betwen two forks in the tree but the name of the family to whom the baby belonged could not be learned and the newspaper men took the story with a grain of salt. "The storm crossed the state line into Missouri about a mile and three quarters south of Mulberry but littie was heard of it after it had crossed the line and it 19 belived to have spent itself shortly after leaving Crawford county. There were many sights to be seen 08 one traveled along the path of the storm and some of them would not be believed If they were told, The night following the storm was one of horror. "It was the frat that Girard had experienced and althbugh there was one that passed thrsugh the county seat in November 1886 and did some damage and destroyed the Presbyterian church In the town it did not class with this one." ONLY ONE OF ENGLISH BIRTH.

Mon Who Fought Britain's Battles Have Been Irish or Scotch. There has not been an English general since Marlborough. Wellington was born at Dangan castle, Meath, of an old Irish family called Wesley, and chirstened in Dublin. Wolfe was born at Ferneaux abbey, Kildare, and chris. at Westerham--nearly in the same case as the Brontes (Brunty).

His grandfather defended Limerick against William Ill. Sir John Moore and the Napiers were Scotchmen; so was Abercrombie (Egypt); so were Napier of Magdala, Crawford and Clyde. Wolseley, Roberts and Kitchener are Irish. So was Gough. The generals and statesmen who saved India to Great Britain were Neill, Nicholson, the two Lawrences (Irish), Edwards (Welsh), and Rose (Scotch).

I know of Wolfe because my greatgrandfather served under him at Quebec. His Irish birth was corroborated to me by Capt. Dunne, once well known in literary circles of a Queen's county family. I don't know whether Scotchmen like to be called English, but certainly Irishmen do don News. ADDS TO CAPACITY OF ENGINE.

Efficiency Increased Without the sumption of More Fuel. At the Royal Technical school, in Charlottenburg, Germany, there has recently been tested, with remarkable results, a method of increasing the efficiency of steam engines, which was invented by two Germans some time ago, but has only now been effectively applied. The principle depends upon the employment of the exhaust steam from an ordinary compound engine to evaporate another liquid having a lower boiling point than water. The liquid used is sulphurous acid. The heat of the exhaust steam is sufficient to liberate sulphur dioxid gas, and this, passing into the cylinder of an iliary engine, acts the part of steam.

It is afterward condensed and goes back to the vaporizer. The result is said to be that to every indicated horsepower developed in the main gine about half a horsepower is added by the auxiliary engine, without increasing the consumption of fuel.Sunday Magazine, A Case Worth Trying, Mr. F. Philander Towersby, a most excellent citizen, though not noted for lavish prodigality, received recently a consignment of very rare Toukayer Ausbruch. He sent one bottle of the delicious wine to Justice Fordyce of the supreme court, who happens to be one of the most eminent connoisseurs in America, and with the bottle sent a note asking his honor's opinion of the vintage.

Mr. Towersby received next day this reply: "My Dear Sir: I beg to thank you for the confidence you repose in my judgment, as shown by asking for my opinion. "But, inasmuch as I am a lawyer, many years of training and experience make it impossible for me to give an opinion on anything but a case." Harper's Weekly, The World's Telephones. The number of telephones in the world is estimated at. 9,500,000, of which 7,000,000 are said to be in use in America and 2,000,000 in Europe.
