The widow of a village grocer was industriously placing the large, rosycheeked apples on the top of the di minutive shriveled ones in the barrel when Farmer Giles entered the establishment, according to the Rochester Herald. "I want that tub o' butter," he said, "an' those hams, and that lot o' sugar, and" The shopkeeper rubbed her hands together with delight. "Yes, sir," she beamed, "delighted to serve you, I'm sure. And what else may I supply you with?" "Well," went on Mr. Giles, "there's all them bottles of tomato sauce, and them boxes o' biscuits an' -an' all that other stuff," he concluded, vague ly, sweeping his hand around the shop. "Good gracious!" exclaimed the widow, now rather alarmed, "whatever do you want with all them goods?" "I dunno, I'm sure," was the farmer's puzzled reply, but I'm the executor of your late husband's will, an' the lawyer's just told me it's my duty to carry out the provisions. So come on. I've got three carts waitia' outside!" Greek Cruelty to Animals. Cruelty to animals is practiced to such an extent in Athens that one German tourist declared it completely spoiled his pleasure in his trip.

FIERCE STDR

Illinois, Indiana and Kentucky Visited by Tornadoes and Cloud Bursts Lives Lost and Property Destroyed.

Special to Lake County Times.) Chicago, June S. Dispatches from various places in Illinois, Indiana and Kentucky tell of severe storms with loss of life and destruction of property. The towns of New Minden, 111., twenty-five miles southwest of St. Louis, was visited by a fierce tornado GOIiiEfJGEIfjl TIMER Of SALE Preparations for the Event Are Now Practically Completed. As the date of the big graduation exercises of the Hammond high school approaches, the interest taken by the students and their friends steadily increases. Preparations for the event which have been under way so long are practically completed and everything seems to be in readiness. Tickets have now been placed on sale at Bicknell's drug store, and those wishing to obtain a seat in any part of the house will have to do so at once. It is not probable that there will be many choice seats left by this evening. At the end of the nxt school week all schools will be closed for the summer vacation. Judging by the amount of work accomplished, the perfect discipline which lias been kept, and the increased attendance, this has been by far the most prosperous year enjoyed in the public schools. Great credit must be given to Supt. McDaniels and his corps of teachers for their splendid work in the past year and their energetic preparations for the future. There has never been a year in which the general public has been more satisfied with the methods of instruction and the work accomplished than the one which is about to close. A graduate of the Hammond high school at its present high standing is qualified to enter the best universities in the country without examination, and that is a fact which should be appreciated. It might be rioted also, that recent statistics show that the Indiana schools are, with one or t wo exceptions, the best-. In the country,,, The Hammond schools 'rank: as high as any in Indiana, so that the cltfzxns' of Hammond can boast of having !as good schools as there are in any part of the country. GOT THE WRONG BABIES. Curious Mixup That Occurred Recently In French Hospital. A curious mistake occurred yesterday at the hospital at Amiens, says a correspondent of the London Mail. Two young women had recently been attended there. One had given birth to a boy, and the other had given birth to a girl. Yesterday their babies were taken from them to be vaccinated. After the vaccination the babies, in their swaddling clothes, were returned to their mothers, who went away with them. Soon afterward one of the mo thers returned to the hospital in tears. Her child was a boy, but on re turning home she discovered that the nurse had handed her a girl. She in sisted on her boy being returned to her. A scene of great confusion oc curred, as nobody knew the address of the other mother. At last, toward nightfall, tfee other mother arrived, greatly excited, complaining that she had been given a boy in mistake for her girl baby. The change was duly executed, and the two mothers went away happy. Fine Health in Open Air. The healthiest persons in the world are gypsies, ana they live m tne open air, but there is an erroneous Idea that gypsies are people who defy the elements to destroy their health. On the contrary, they are very careful, indeed, of their health, even though living out of doors. They never go to bed with the draft blowing over them, but have free circulation around them, yet protected from rain and wind. While sometimes seemingly scantily attired, they always are warmly clothed beneath, wearing warm underclothing. The consumptives who go to places for their health are now living exactly as the gypsies, and because of the disease being considered contagious, they must live in tents. It is here that the efficacy of pure air is being fully demonstrated, for it often effects a cure If the patient is not too weak when the treatment begins. Future Looked Dismal. Nelson, a child of five, was becoming acquainted with his Uncle Will. They were considering questions of earthly life, with its manifold perplexities and rules of conduct, and the life and hope in the hereafter. In an attempt to make the Idea perfectly clear to the boy the uncle said: "Now, you know that your grandmother Is dead and has gone to Heaven." After a minute or two of deep thought Nelson looked up Into his uncle's face and said: ""We'll never see her again, will we, Uncle Wlur-

Duquoin, 111., was also visited. A number of houses here were blown down, but no lives lost. STRANGE CULT HOLDS SERVICES "Israelites of the House of David" to Camp Here Tonight. With "Midnight in Chinatown" on at Towle's opera house, the usual pro gram on at Brooke's theatre, Pawnee Bill and his gigantic wild west show on the north side and street preaching on the corner of Sibley and ilohman streets tonight, Hammond ought to present a gala appearance. Shortly after noon four members of the Benton Harbor, (Mich.) branch of the Israelites of the House of David struck Hammond in their overland wagon where they will encamp for the evening, to hold services on the corner of Hohman and Sibley streets. As the, wagon passed down the streets the men in the vehicle with their long flowing hair presented quite a picturesque sight to the citizens of Hammond who were not aware of what the party really was. Some of the onlookers went so far as to say It was part of Pawnee Bill's circus. The services tonight will be conducted by Mr. and Mrs. Smith, who describe themselves as missionaries from the House of David at Benton Harbor where they have nearly two thousand converts in their colony, which covers over 800 acres. Both Mr. and Mrs. Smith have toured South Wales where they succeeded in gaining sev eral converts to their religion. Dur ing their campaign over the foreign countries all meetings were held outdoors as is their custom. The men's long flowing hair is ac counted for by the fact that they never shave or have their hair cut, this being in accordance with their religious principles. Neither, dq. they-r,smoke, chew tobacco, drink intoxicants or eat any kind of meat. They are not Jews, but claim the name of Israel, because the Bible promises that a remnant of Israel (the ten lost tribes) are to Inherit the promise of a full redemption of spirit, soul and body. The Israelites fully believe that if is Just as possible to save the body as it li to save the soul. At their colony at Benton Harbor. Stores are run on a communistic has! and every convert is placed on the same equal as his fellow men. SAXOHY ENJOYS SCHOOLjXERCISES Fine Program is Presented County Superintendent Curtis Speaks. The people of Saxony enjoyed one of the pleasantest programs ever given in the local schools last night in the third annual commencement. The - exercises were of a high order and much ap predated by the large crowd in- at tendance. The decorations were beau tlful, the platform being draped in the class colors of purple and gold. The school orchestra furnished the music for the occasion in a way which did them great credit. The class was the largest in the his tory of the schools and was a good token of their prosperity. County Superintendent Curtis o Crown Point delivered the address of the evening and his talk was much ap predated. iie said m part that he approved o the good school system, and said that is was due to the township organiza tion. He advised that, should village become incorporated, they ought to al low the schools to remain under the directorate of the township. The poor condition of the schools few years ago was due to the with drawal of Hammond, Whiting and Eas Chicago from the township organiza tion, some of which are now trying to get back.

Mf SIDE TRIPS HEAR M1ES101 Dismal Swamp, Fortress Monroe, Old Point Comfort May be Seen. Norfolk, Va., June 7. -Peculiarly for tunate are the Jamestown exposition officials . in having the site of their mammoth display surrounded, as it is. by a region so rich in historical interest and In beauty of landscape. All the grounds are places that no tourist can afford to pass It by. The city of Norfolk itself makes a strong appeal to the sightseer, espec ially to the tourist Interested in the history of the United States and in the earlier history of the colony. In old SL Paul's church can be seen a, huge cannon ball Imbedded therein January 1 1776, when Lord Dunmore bombarded and almost destroyed the town; Portsmouth haa one o the great Navy Yards of the Central government. Virginia Beach and Cape Henry, on the Atlantic coast, aro reached by trolley from Norfolk, and are great summer resorts and bathing places. A place hallowed by legend and by verse Is Lake Drummond, in the uismal Swamp. Four times dally trains leave Norfolk for Suffolk, the nearest station to the swamp, or a delightful trip may be made by canoe or launch, and every tourist to the exposition is advised to visit this place. Another Bide trip of great interest will be Yorktown. The exact spot of the surrender of Lord Cornwallis to the Continental army in 17S1, is marked by a monument, and there is another fine monument dedicated to , the soldiers who won the victory over the British troops. At Yorktown, also, may b seen the ruins of a church built in 1660, the first custom house ever opened In the United States, the cave in which Cornwallis took refuge when the town was bombarded, the old Nslson house, and other places of great Interest. Old Point Comfort, perhaps better known as Fort Monroe, is an adjacent point of interest. It has the largest and best equipped fort In America, and ia the chief artillery station of the government. Of especially deep Interest to exposition visitors is a side trip to Jamestown, the site of the first permanent settlement in America, Williamsburg, the second capital of the colony, is also near oy ana una uouclations than any other in America. The battlefields of three wars will attract others, and historic homes and institutions will appeal to many more. Also among the points of interest that the tourist cannot effort to miss are the Luray Caverns, gorgeous naU ural halls, glistening like a fairy palace, which at night is Illuminated by sparking rocks, and tha Natural bridge, a wonderful structure overlooking the James, River Valley, on the western slope of Blue Ridge mountains, which ranks among the great wonders of the world. Approaching Niagara in grand eur, it exceeds it ia height and in law ful mystery. It is a single block of limestone with many shades of color. Its height is 215 feet, its width 100 feet. and its span SO feet.
