Union, April 26.?About 6 o?clock thi9 afternoon a terrific storm raged here for ten minutes aDd in that time time great damage was wrought, and that many lives were not lost is miraculous. The only person injured was John Campbell, aged 20, an operative of Union cotton mills, who was badly bruised about the forehead and hurt internally by the falling walls. The greatest- damage was done to the spinning room on the fourth floor of Union mill No. 2, the southern eDd of which was blown in for over 100 feel and a big strip of the roof torn off. The maDy children working there only escaped with their lives by fleeing when they saw the windows beginning to fall in. Eight spinning frames were injured. The damage is estimated at $5,000. In the heart of the town the Bethel A. M. E church, valued at $1,500, and the Presbyterian chapel, worth $1,000, in the eastern suburbs, at Monarch, one mile away, were both totally demolished and another colored church was lifted from its pillars, but not badly damaged. Many small buildings and fences were destroyed, but the principal buildings, residences and other larger mills of the city were uninjured. No damage was done at Buffalo. A "Wonderful Saving. The largest Methodist church in Georgia, used 32 gallons of L. & M. mixed with 24 gallons of oil, thus making paint cost about SI.20 per gallon They calculated to use 100 gallons of paint. Saved abont $80.00 and also get a big donation of L. & M. Dealers gladly Fell L. & M., because their customers call for it, and say they used it 12,14 and even 30 years ago. Don't pay $1.50 a gallon for linseed oil, which ycu do in ready-for-use paint. Buy oil fresh from the barrel at 60 cents per gullon, and mix it with L. & M. paint, It makes paint cost about $1.20 per gallon. Sold by W. P. Roof. Some Questions Asked!

The Confederate soldier was the most unique personage known to modern hietorj: Taken from a home of comfort and luxury aDd placed in camp though entirely new and somewhat novel to him he nevertheless adapted himself at once to his sur| roundings, deprivations and incon; vpnipnppfl nf w p.amn life. He was : resourceful, and never seemed to lack ; for an idea by which to meet and supply the immediate wants of the hour and occasion. He truly exernj plified the truth of the assertion that : "necessity is the mother of invention,'' ! and accommodates himself to the peculiar surroundings. Brave, valiant and unflinching in the performance of duty as a soldier. He does not ! glory in a fight, but is ever ready j and willing to do whatever is neces' sary along the firing line.

He is peace loving, home loving and liberty loving and fights to win. A Creeping Dc i. Blood poison creeps np towards the heart cansing death. J. E.

An important point in the preparation of a dinner is to clean up as you go aloDg, so that wben dishing up time arrives the table is not in a hopeless muddle, covered with dirty ? . i* . 1 ? plates, dirty Knives, spoons, oasins, jars, etc. Have a pan of hot water, into which you can dip the knives, forks, etc, as they are used, and then if wanted again they only just require wiping. If the flour bin has been used or a j ir out of the kitchen cupboard or the pot of coloring put them all back in their places directly they are done with, so that there is plenty j of space on the kitchen table. With regard to the saucepans that are used, a great amount of trouble will be saved if they are filled with hot water as soon as they are emptied of their contents and put on one side. In preparing a meal always have the table set at least half an hour before dinner. Be sure to think beforehand bow many hot plates, etc., whether large or small, and what vegetable disheB will be required and dnofr f VifiQA well and oet them thoroughly hot in good time. These directions my seem superfluous to some, but there are plenty of cases, with young and inexperienced cooks especially, where if it were not for -the personal supervision of the mistress these small but important details would be overlooked altogether. ?Brooklyn Citizen.

Fernandez, of Tampa, Fla.. describing his fearlu I race with death. "as a result of liver trouble aud heart disease, which had robbed rue of sleep and of all interest in life. I had tried many different doctors and several medicines, but got no benefit, until I began to use Electric Bitters. So wonderful was their effect, that in three days I felt like a new man, and today I am cured of all my troubles." Guaranteed at The Kaufmann Drug Co's., drug store; price 50c.
