Too Much Cabbage Hearta.
Billy Gilliam raised some queer looking
cabbage Ibis year, one was brought
in for our inspection. No, we have
never seen anything like that in the cabbage
family. It is a whole cabbage
family uuto itself, there are 20 hard head.-*
ranging in size from a hen's egg to a
gooee egg size, all growing in a bunch on
one ?ta'k, each having a s'em of its own
attached to the mother or main stem
The whole is somewhat larger than an
ordinary cabbage head. It is a curium
freak of nature.

A Destructive Storm at Sedalia.
Mn. Ei>itoii:?I am sorry to inform
you that a destructive storm of wind,
:e raiu and hail visited our section last
re Friday afternoon about 2 o'clock. It
started in the neighborhood of New
Prospect school house raoviug in a south
of western direction carrying destruction in
ie its pathway. Crops are nearly destroyed,
, fences blown down, trees uprooted,
8 orchards and fruit badly damaged. A
large oak was blown on a house occupied
. by Peter Moormau, colored, owned by
T. K Palmer, crushing in one end of
6 the bulldiug and knocking down a part
d- of the chimney. The storm extended
Id about a mile in length averaging about

principal sufferers. We are glad the
storm was confined to so small an area.
The scene was awful and grand. Twenty

we had a heavier hail storm here but not

for several engagements. His tjrst performance
was witnessed last Tuesday
night by a select assemblage of mistitied

J We are trying to think up some big

We have an idea he is also practicing
the art of putting people to sleep. But.
the trouble about this i?art of the busi'8
