Naw ORLEANs, La., August 21.-Pas sengers by the Texas and Pacific Railroad from Shreveport report damage to build ings and crops similar to that at Donald sonville and Placquemine sugar houses, and other buildings have been damaged and destroyed and crops blown down. A similar condition of affairs is reported from many points on the Morgan road. The sugar houses on Vigene's magnolia planta tion were demolished. Five sugar houses in the vicinity of Jeanevette were bady damaged. The steamboat Warren had her chimney blown overboard at Baton Rouge on Sunday night, and during the excite ment John R. Lucket, one of the best known clerks on the river, fell to the boiler deck and broke his neck. There is one certain aavantage in laying up treasures in heaven. The man who does it may be sure that the lawyers who fight over his will can never get at that portion of his estate.-Ex. A Storm in Chesapeake Bay. BALTImoRE, August 21.-The Sun has dispatches from various points in Southern Maryland giving the particulars of a severe storm that this afternoon swept up both sides of Chesapeake Bay, causing consid erable destruction to property and creating the wildest sort of excitement. Numer ous frame houses and barns were demol ished, and two schooners were overturned, but no loss of life has as yet been reported Entire fruit orchards were destroyed, and corn fields were in many instances swept clean. An immense water spout formed at the mouth of the bay and was carried with terrifie force across Poole's Island. The full extent of the damage cannot be esti mated, as reports thus far received are rather indefinite. The storm came from the south and was accompanied by heavy rain. Destruction in Delaware. WnxNGsToN, Del., August 21.-A cy clone passed across the State from the southwest to the northeast this afternoon about six miles below this city, cutting a path :bout two hundred feet In width, leveling fences, orchards and outbuildings, and doing damage estimated at $150,000. So far as known, but one person was killed, Thos. Bruce, a blacksmith, at Hare's Corner, whose shop was destroyed. Sev eral other persons were dangerously and many rinjured. In this the Neblow Bros. iron works were in an instant. Huge timbers were tossed about as though they had been straws; and bricks were strewn for rods around. Blew the Lumber Off the House. ATGusTA, August 21.-The heavy winds that suddenly came up about 1 o'clock to day blew off all the loose lumber on top of the Georgia railroad shops out into the streets. Fortunately no one was passin at the time to be injured by the heavy fa ing timber. Nine People Killed by a Cyclone. WnNGToN, Del., August 21.-A spe cial from Still Pond, Md., says: "Crebbs's cannery was totally destroyed by the cy clone there at 4 o'clock. Nine persons were killed outright and many others wounded. The wreck took fire, but-was soon put out. Other damage there will be great." ANOTHER STORM AND FLOOD. Bridgs caruied Awa,andElectrie, Gas and street Railroad Systems Ruined. Wmu=i.re, W. Va., August 21.-A storm, which, in Its disastrous effects, equals that of July 14, has been in pro gress here since $ A. M., and shows no signs of abating. Wheeling Creek, in the narrow valley east of here, is a foot higher than ever before; the roads being flooded~ from two to six feet deep, and brndges de stroyed. The, valley is now one angry flood, and the amage can only be esti mated by the wreckage that ashes through the ciyand out into the river.. At 40O P. M. a plece of the.Baltimore and Ohio wooden bridge, from the Pitts burg division, struck the Baltimore and Ohio bridge at Main and Sixteenth streets, which was destroyed in July and rebuilt, and it was carried away with the rapidity of a cannon ball. Warned by former ex perience, there was no person on.-it. At 5.50, while one thousand or more people were mused on the substantial bridge over Wheling Creek, at Main street, a man on the creek bank, one hundred feet above, souted a warning and the panic-stricken crowd rushed over and into each other in the wild effort to reach terra firma. After the bridge was cleared, those nearest, see. ing It stil apparently safe, turned back, laughing at their late alarm, but before they reached the edge, the bridge, 140 feet in length, fell with one awful crash and the waters leaped sixty feet into the air. Water, gas and natural gas mains, sewers, telegraph and telephone wires, electric light, and street car and conductors were carried down. The Baltimore and Ohio railroad bridge and the Market street iron bridge, it Is feared, will go. The losses will reach $250,000. loss of hf' e. It is known that five bridges, rebuilt after the former flood, have been destroyed, and the Wheeling and Elm Grove alrabrd over Wood's Run is also goe. Al hve been ordered a oed on the Ohio River Railroad. About two hundred delegates to the Re publican State Convention at Charleston tomorrow, are stuck on this road at Sisters ville, forty miles south on the river. Ranlada Wreck Near Asbury Park. Asunt~ PARK, N. J., August 28.-A passenger train for New York, on the New York and Long Branch Road, ran on to and totally wrecked a freight train near here today. The passenger train's engine also was wrecked. No one was seriously hurt, but the passengers were badly shaken up. The accident was caused by a mis placed switch. For a time the greatest ex citement prevailed. Women and children screamed, and there was a general scramble for the doors. The mnisplaced switch threw the passen ger train on to the side track where a freight train was standing. The passenger train was under slow headway, or other wise there would have been a large loss of life. If you want to disprove the adage that figures won't lie, just go to any summer resort and see them lying-in hammocks, An advance thinker is a man who thinks he knows It all. His thought of himself is in advance of the thoughts of other people on the same subject. Eventually the whites and the redskins will gtalong harmoniously, but probably it wil not be until after the Indians are all dead. When the base ball bat goes into the hair it is time for the coroner to take the um pire's place. There never was a horse trade in which each principal didn't firmly declare that he had got the best of the other fellow; and It sometimes happens that both parties have been swindled. Man is in his best condition for labor when he is fresh- from rest, but the wagon wheelis in its best condition when It is tired. A DEFENSE OF THE BUSTLE" [ Is a Joy Beyond Compare and No Mon arch Can Banish It. I wear a bustle, says "Maud" in the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, and I believe in it. I wear a large bustle, and I am proud of it. I wear a steel-ribbed, brass riveted, burglar and fire proof bustle, and I hold that it is a joy beyond com pare. I have tried all varieties of bustles the large and small, the round and flat, the soft and the substantial. ' My ex perienoe makes me friendly to the large bustles, and the stronger they are the better I like them. The only bustle I detest is the four cylindered afair filled with spiral wires that looks.like a quad ruplex fire hose. The cylinders are worn vertically, and if you are not careful in sitting down when you have one of these fixtures on you areliable to be catapolled into the empyream. Itrequires a woman of great and everlasting presence of mind to sit down properlyi the four-cylinder ed bustle. Perhaps Mrs. Cleveland se cured her dislike for the bustle from wearing the cylinder-shaped arrange ment. If so I cannot blame her much for wanting to see the bustle banished. Butif she ever wore one of those hand some steel-wired concerns that resemble a cross between a baseball catcher's mask and a moss basket, shaped like a half watermelon and full proportion as the round moon, how different she would feel about it! There is a charm about a bustle of this kind that makes my pen thrill ecstatic delight as I write you about it. I want to poetize on the subject. Rhapsody is crowding down the ends of my fingers and my hand fairly glows with the warm pleasure of the work of praising it; but pshaw! you are a man, and perhaps you are an old bachleor to boot, and you wouldn't understand my womanly joy if I tried to express it in flowing words. You might tell me that the only bustle you ever heard any tg about was the celluloid bustle, whh explodes, or takes fBre, or throws a railroad train off the track, or commits a double murder, or finds a hidden treasure, or bursts up a hap home, whenever your newspaper n a really good item, and you would laugh and perhaps hand this communi cation to the snake editor with instrue tions for him to feed it to the pet oobra di cspella which you keep around the offic. I do not think that you could really and truly appreciate the sincerity of my sentiment and gage the depths of emotions in this matter, and therefore, I will not turn my thoughts loose bustle ward, but will content myself with re marking that Mrs. Cleveland can make a fool of herself if she will,.and rob her figure of the graceful contour which the prominent tournure she wore in St. Louisgaveit, if she so desires, but the undersigned will still continue to have a weakness for large bustles, and any movement in the direction of perpetuat &Ug and immortalizing the shape im provers will always meet with ready and cordial encouragement from this huckle berry. I have heard men sy time and again that they wonder how women ma to sit down when they have a bustle. ey do not wonder at any such i They simply speak a little fib when say so, that's all, for-it isn't any harder for a woman with a bustle on to sit down than it is for a man with a pint flask of cholera mixture in his cost tail pocket to do it. All he's got to do is to be a little careful, of course, and that's all a woman with a bustle on has to do. The secret of it is thi: When a bustle decked woman sits down, she does so sidewise. There is a pretty little trick in it. She pretendsashe is going to sit on the right side of the chair and makes her first movement in that direction, but just asshe reaches the chair she moves gracefully to the other side, the bustle rollto the right, entirely out of the way of the sitter, and the problem is solved. Put on a bustle, Mr. Editor, and try it. You may not succeed the first time, but after awhile you will accomplish the task sucsfly, and then you will see that the bustle is not so gigantic an inconvenience as some people try to make it out to be. They may talk as much as they like about anishing it, but they can never make it a complete and absolute exile from home. It will linger in our midst in one form or other, and if they do away with the wire and wicker basket and the stuffed pillow there will still be left the old standby, the, convenient nwpper, which can be folded into per eptibl package and doubled over a piece of string and fastened in the tourn ure so nicely and effectively that it will not only answer the purposes of the best busle ever made, but it will also serve to keep green the memory of the round and synn reations in metal and other meterials which adorned lovely women in the eighties of the nineteenth century._ KILLED BY FALLING WALLS. Eighteen Persons Killed and a Large Numn ber Iujured at the Burning of a Mill in Neenah, Wis. MILwAUKEE, Wis., August 28.-A spe cal from Neenah, Wis., says: At 11.30 o'clock last night a large paper mill, owned by George A. Whiting. situated on an isl and between this city and Mehashaw, was destroyed by fire. While the burning struCture was surrounded by a Crowd of spectators the battery of boilers exploded and the walls were thrown outward, send ing a shower of bricks and timbers among the spectators. Eighteen persons were killed, seven fatally injured and a number seriously hurt, several of whom will die. The mill was a three-story structure, built iccar years ago at a cost of $100,000, and was operated day and night. When the flames broke out about fifty men were in the building. The fire alarm brought several hundred people to the spot, who crowded as close to the burning building as the intense heat would permit. About 1.30 o'clock, while the building was a mass of flame, the explosion occurred without warning. The roof of the building was thrown upward and outward. The walls of brick crumbled and crashed into the street, and in an instant scores of men were buried by the heavy debris. There was a moment of silence, then a cry of horror went up from the multitude. The frst strong impiulse to gy from possi ble further danger was soon overcome, and hundreds began the work of recoveing the bodies of the dead and rescuing the wounded. Body after body was found crushed and mangled by the great timbers almost be yond recognition and removed to the city hall. The injured were carried to neigh boring residences, or to thteir homes as soon as their identity was established. The losa on the building Is $100,000, in Brumce $52,000. The Eide to the sparkiing Catawba. The ride from the railroad to the Sparkling Catawba Springs is a very plaant one-made especially so by the fact that Messrs. Brannon Bros. have established a regular hack line from onover, N. C., the nearest station, to the Springs. In buying tickets and hekig baggage, remember that Donover is the station and that Brannon Bros. will supply comfortable trnnspor hatian at reseotable frs. A WOMAN WITH A RAZOR Disembowels Her Husband and Then Cuts Her Own Throat. (Philadelphia Times, Aug. 23.) Win. Burrow, aged 50 years, who lived at 408 Noble street, lies on a cot in the Pennsylvania Hospital, suffering from a terrible cut in the abdomen inflicted by his wife. The physicians think he will die. The couple have been married for ten years. About seven years ago they came to this country from England and settled in Philadelphia. Burrow was a tailor and opened a shop at 408 Noble street, and occupied all except the front room on the first floor as a dwelling. His wife assisted him in his work, and the couple were never known to quarrel. They bought a piece of property on Fourth street, near Callowhill, out of their savings, and their business was profitable. Of late years Mrs. Burrow has been an invalid, and for the past two months she has been a physical wreck. Her husband twitted her about her condition, and told " her several times he was going to leave her. About a month ago he told his wife he would allow her the rent receiyed from their house on Fourth street to live on, and that on Augst 23 he was going away. Burrow had left his wife in England and gone off with another woman, but subse quently returned and. was forgiven. His wife feared that he would leave her today and she was very low-spirited. On Tues day she told Dr. Patterson, of 603 North Ninth street, of her husband's threats to leave, and he advised her to seek legal ad vice. She promised to do this and went home. SLASHED WHILE ASLEEP. The couple retired early on Tuesday night, as was their custom, but Mrs. Bar row did not sleep. The neighbors noticed . her sitting at the window in their bed room, apparently watching the storm. About 4 o'clock yesterday morning the people living in the neighborhood were startled by the cry of "Murder!" When they got on the street they saw Burrow ] standing at his window. "For God's sake come in, my wife has cut me open with a razor," he exclaimed, at the same time throwing the bloody weapon out of the window. The only door leading to the house was locked on the j inside with a heavy wooden bar, and all attempts to force it were futile. When Burrow found the people culd not et in he crawled down stairs and suc=ed in opening the front door. Then he fell to the floor in a pool of blood. He presented a horrible sight. His abdomen had been cut clear across by the keen edge of the razor from one side to the other. THE WOMAN'S ATTEMPTED SUICIDE. Lights were procured and a few of the neighbors went up stairs, while others hur ried in search of medical attendance and the police. On the bed in the neat second story bed-room lay Mrs. Burrow with her throat cut. She was perfectly conscious and had lost but little blood. The bed on which she lay and the condition of the room turned the spectators sick with horror. The bed was literally saturated with blood and it was dripping in a poolon the floor. Asecond pool showed where the man stood at the window crying for help. It was evident that a struggle had taken place, but the blood around the room showed that it was after the woman had completed her awful work. Before Burrow became unconscious he said he was asleep and his wife threw a bot tle of hartshorn over him. Then she went down stairs and got his razor. He thought he was dreamin when he was awakened by a sharp pain and he found himself covered with blood. His wife had the razor in her hand and drew it across her throat. He grappled with her and succeeded in getting the razor from her, cutting his hand badly in doing so. THE woMAN'S WOUNDS NOT DANGEROUs. . Dr. George Polls, of 461 North Second " street, who had been summoned, called an ambulance and had Burrow removed to the Pennsylvania Hospital. He said Mrs. Bur row's wound was not dangerous and, after it was dressed, she was arrested by Police man Hunt and locked up in the Seventh district station house. She was given a hearing before Magistrate Ladner and com- ] mitted to await the result of her husband's 1 injuries. She admitted to the Mgsrt that she did the. cutting, but refue to give any reason. O a dainty toy is the heart of man! For of all toys known since time began, Compare with this one, what one can? What rapture to watch it chill and burn And burn and chill and tremble in turn- } Then with dainty shod feet to carelessly spurn! O 'tis rare, indeed, with a victim smitten This delicate game a la mouse and kitten To cajole, soothe, caress-then "give him the mitten." Take all other toys, then, but leave mue mine; Take riches and pleasures and palaces fine; Take all but my plaything--the heart mas uline. -h THELPTUN IN i - THE LADIES' FAVORITE.
