Special to Tbc Journal. KANSAS: CITY, MO., April 30.—A vio

lent wind storm followed by torrents of rain with hail, fell suddenly at noon to-day, demolishing a number of buildings and wrecking a span of the iron bridge. .So far as can be learned nineteen persons were killed instantly and twenty injured, many so badly that they will die. Many of the killed are little school children who were caught by falling walls and horribly mangled by heavy timbers and broken iron work which crushed down on them as thev sat terrified at their desks.

Frye'd Army.

Special lo 'the Journal. INDIANAPOLIS. April 30.—Allen Jennings, of this city, has been elected a general in Frye's army to succeed "Hen." Aubrey, who was deposed for deserting the original force. Frye is in receipt of a letter from Gen. Howard, of the 1". S. Army, calling Frye's attention to the fact that he will soon be in territory subject to Howard's military control and asking what Frye proposes to do when he gets to Washington with his so called array. Frye answered by sending his circular and siying he would give tleu. Howard anv information desired.

There was a hot game of base ball, numerous games of "craps" and poker, a couple of fights and a foot race. The authorities should look into the matter and break the roost up.

A woman's age and how much she eats are delicatc questions to discuss.

At the Episcopal Churcli.

The musical features of the service at St. John's church last evening gave further proof, if such were needed, of Professor Ramsbrook's good taste. The opening voluntary was an especially sweet number, while the "Fruhlingslied" of Mendelssohn lost none of its charm in the Professor's hands. Meyerbeer's march from "Le Prophete" completed a programme which was enjoyed by all who lit ad it.

OWINO to the great popularity the Thurston (). K. Flour has attained with the trade and consumers generally, some unscrupulous dealers have resorted to the trick of buying a cheaper grade of flour branded "New O. K." and arc ffering it to the trade as the Thurstoo O. K. Flour. Don't let your Hour dencr foist upon you some other grade ofallieap flour by telling you it is just as good. Cheap Hour is dear at any price. If you want the best straight grade of flour in the city ask for the genuine O. K., made by Jas. L. Thurston, Albany, Ind.

THE UPDIKE MEETINGS,

ImmetiK Throngs Both Morning ami livening at the [Christian Church—tlrea' Interest Manifested,

The evangelistic work of Hev. J. V. Updike, of Fort Wayne, began yesterday at the Christian church under the most auspicious circumstances. Both morning and evening the commodious edifice was crowded by interested throngs eager to hear and profit. Long before the time for services people began to arrive at the church and in the evening standing room was at a premium, many being turned away. The subject of the morning discourse was "The Disciples Work Greater than their Lord's'' and it proved a very powerful argument. The singing conducted by Mr. J. E. Hawes, of Ada, Ohio, was also magnificent and added

Mr. Updike is one of the most wonderful pulpit orators in the Christian church or any church so far as that is concerned and impresses his hearers alike with his eloquence and earnestness. His meetings will undoubtedly prove of immense benefit and profit. All persons should avail themselves of the opportunity to hear him. Mr.

JESSE UOOE CAPTURED.

Special lo TlieJoirnal.

Hn.t.snoito, April :)0, 1804.—Sheriff Moore yesterday morning arrested Jesse Booe, who has been wanted in this county for several months past, on a charge of petit larceny. It will be remembered that Booe was convicted in Crawfordsville, about a year ago for stealing meat from a Mr. Dice, and received a 00 dayssentence in jail. When his time expired he was brought to this county and placed in jail at Covington. on a charge of stealing meat from J. 1'. Cooper. He was bailed out. however, under a bond of $500, his grandfather, with whom he has always made his home, going on the same. 'When his trial was called lie

appeared, but glancing around the court room and seeing the many witnesses who could testify against him lie walked out of the court room and made his escape. Gov. .tthc.ws remitted the bond, a petition being presented to him signed by several hundred of Fountain county's most influential citizens. Sheriff Moore has kept a sharp lookout for Booe since lie disappeared and has several times been very near him but could never ar rest him. A detective traced Booe from Indianapolis to this place Saturday night and wired sheriff Moore that Booe was here. The Sheriff and deputy McClurc, came up on the Mid-

J. K. 11AWKS.

Hawes, the singer, is also remarkably powerful and magnetic in his work and is of inestimable value, to the meetings.

This evening the subject will be "How easy to convert an honest man." To-morrow afternoon at 2:30 o'clock there will be services also, the subject being "The great harvest."

Funeral of Frank Clements.

The funeral of Frank Clements occurred this afternoon at 2 o'clock conducted by Rev. G. P. Fuson. the interment being at Oak Hill. A larffe concourse of friends attended the services and Harry Maxwell sang two beautiful solos. The pall bearers wenEd O'Haver and the five brothers of the deceased. They are Charles Clements, of Duluth, Minn.: Walter Clements, of Lafayette: Tom Clements, of West Point, and Will and Ed Clements, of Laltelle, Missouri.

Barn Burned.

The barn of (Jeorge Mears, two miles north of Mace, was struck by lightning last Saturday night from which it caught fire and burned to the ground. It contained 750 bushels of corn, :)0 bushels of wheat, 3 tons of hay, anil all his farming implements, including binder, corn planter, wagon, three buggies, and harness. The total loss will be 8800 or §1,000 with no insurance.

An Interesting Story.

Dr. B. F. West gave quite an interesting talk at the Y. M. C. A. meeting yesterday afternoon, concerning gospel mission work in the far East. His account of the work and of the marvelous changes that have been brought about in tke lives of the Orientals, was a most interesting one to those present. Dr. West expects to return to his work in Malaysia about the first of June.

night train and deputized a liaif dozen citizens to assist in the capture of Booe. The house was surrounded and men stationed at all the doors and windows. The Sheriff rapped on the door, and in a moment Booe was down stairs: but there was no possible means for him to escape. The Sheriff finally gained admittance and placed Booe under arrest. He was immediate!, handcuffed and taken to jail. The Sheriff admitted that lie never could have taken Booe single handed and it is doubtful if he would have ever eauglit him at all had he not rounded the house.

Jesse Booe came from a high and well respected family and his actions have not only cast a gloom over his relatives but the community also. No blame can be attached to his grand father for he did not know Booe was there. Abetter and kinder old man never lived than uncle Jesse Mendcn hall. Jesse Booe was reared in an honest life, but he fell in with bad associates and for the past two or three years has led a wild and reckless life A little over a year ago he was married to Emma Crique, of Crawfordsville. is thought here that Booe will get not less than two years in Michigan City

Loss by Fire.

Special to The Journal. HIJ.LSBOUO, April 29.—During the storm last night JL bolt of lightning struck the feed and stock barn of Win, Murdock, who lives about three miles northwest of this place. Three horses were burned to death in tlieir^stalls and a mule so badly burned that it had to be killed. We did not learn whether there was any insurance or not.

Captured Again.

HIIXSHOISO, April 29.—Last night the officials of this county drove over from Covington and accompanied by several citizens armed with two shot guns and half a dozen revolvers stormed the residence of Jesse Mendenlial and de manded Jesse Booe. Booe came forth from his downy bed and would have attempted to escape if a Smith & Wesson had not been kept beneath his nose. Lie now lies in the Covington prison.
