June 14.—Ono of tha worst storms that ever visitsd this sec tion of the state dropped down upon the little town of Herman, located 10 miles north of here, last night. For some two hours before the storm took a disastrous form, the clouds were of a threatening color, and the air was hot and sultry. At 6 o'clock the storm seemed more threat ening and the p ople were on their guard. At 0:15 it was observed that the wind was blowing from the northwest and from the southwest and with increasing violence. At K:30 it took the funnel- shaped appearance and bore down upon the town. The first damage done was about 4 miles west of Herman at tho Hawkins farm. Mr. Hawkins is dead and bis barns and outbuildings are in a mass of ruins. In the village of Her man few buildings are left standing. Tho business portion and the residences are piled up in a heap. That any es caped is miraculous. The bank owned and operated by Representative J. H Chambers is a mass of ruins. It was a substantial brick. His homo, au elegant frame, es caped. Near the depot is a pile of rubbish containing everything, from a pair of boots to dead and wounded horses, hogs, cattle, etc. Two special trains have beau sent up from hero and the wounded are beinif cared for at the Clifton hotel. The closest estimate u that eight are killed and 50 wounded. ARM WOMEN IN COUNTRY. Kstubllsliinent of u Iturnl Dollua I«ii» Also I’ropoBcd.

Lieutenant Nihiack, la bored last Maxell and A^ril to get (o Am- rieu iu tlmw to uss the U»i atan twr- p«d > boat which hud bean christened th* Burners After nil preparations had been mads I haste/ied to Hamburg, hoping to catch the Sotuns somewhere j iu the North sea catml, but off my ar- < rival at Hamburg I found that ahu had 1 passed through tho canal early that | morning and was now on the North sea [ on her way to England. It was not uu- ! til more than a week lator, when 1 ; sailed into the port of Weymouth, Eng- 1 land, on hoard the United States steam er Topeka, that I succeeded iu getting her signal flags aboard her. Captain | Knapp told mo that from the month of i the Elbe to Weymouth he had had a | very rough trip, but he had made it in j three days, averaging 12 knots an hour, j which was as much ns any torpedo boat of her size could have made under sim ilar circumstances. When he arrived in Weymouth, he | caused an inspection to bo made, which | allowed that the Burners bad not leaked a drop, in spite of her rough handling, and. considering the weather slut was out in, he believed her to be a very comfortable boat. At Weymouth an English crew was put aboard the Somers, and Captain Ponst and the Germans were paid off and sent home. Tho Englishmen were evidently afraid of her, for every time they put to sea in her they declared that she was leak ing. Twice she was put Work into port cn account of these reports, and each time little or nothing was foupd to bo the matter The third attempt to get her to sea in company with tho Topeka succeeded in getting her us far us Fal mouth, where wo put in because the j j Somers had made signal that she was j sinking. This report was found to be u« I groundless as the two previous ones, j There was, however, a very slight leak j about the submerged torpedo tube, and j j her crew, now thoroughly demoralized, j absolutely refused to go to sea unless j she was drydocked and inspected by ; an agent of Lloyd’s, j ll being utterly impossible to engage ! | a new crew for her at Falmouth, Cap tain Knapp was obliged to yield to their demands and arranged to have her dry- docked. As she was being put into the docks —whether by accident or design cannot be proved—her sailing master ran her, head on, into a stone pier, which caused such- serious damage as w ithout doubt to require bar to remain iu drydock for repairs at least ten days. This was on April 19, and as wo were erne that war would lie declared in a few days nt tho furthest wo were obliged to tall aWay in tho Topeka without her. The day after war wap declared the English cMptaiff of tho port called upon tho officer In command of the Boincxs and told btfo that Great i Britain, under iter proclamation of ! neutrality, must roqneft him to ifo Uj sen in 24 hours, anti if he were unable to do so tho English government would bo obliged to detain tho Burners in port during the continuance of tho war. And so, after all our trouble and ex pense, one of our torpedo boats was left in Falmouth harbor, of no mere uso to | us in our war with Spain than if sha | had remained No. 420 at tho Behichau Works in Eibing. liutl Spelliuu In Harvard, The midyear exaatination in Fine Arts Three, which was held at Harvard ■ on Feb. 4, uncovered these curiosities ! of spelling among other things almost as curious .

There is something very remarkable in the almost reasoning powers mani fested occasionally by birds in clndiuR pursuit or in turning Htlcntion from (licit nests and young, but in few is thin more uolict-uhlo than in tho duck tribes. In Captain Black’s narrative of iiiH arctic bind cxptdition the following instance of this is given: Ono of his companions, Mr. King, having shot n female duck, fired a£ain and, us ho tboeght, disabled its male companion. Accordingly, leaving Ihe dead bird, which ho hud tbo mortifica tion of seeing shoitly afterward carried off by ono of Uio white headed eagles, ho wddod into tho water after tho drake, which, far from being fluttered or alarmed, remained motionless, as ii waiting to bp taken up. Still, as ho uuured it, it glided easily away through innumerable little nooks and windings. Several times he reached out bis hand to seize it, and, having at la. c t with j great patience managed to coop it up j in a corner, from which (bore appeared , to be no escape, ho was twumphuntly i bdfidiug down to tako it when, to his i utter astonishment, it looked around at him, cried “C^uack!” and then flew ! away so strongly that he was convinced ho had never hit it at all. Tho bird’s object clearly was to draw the gunner away from its companion. DagoilUH u* Sin OttYrii»u;a.
