Storm Sweeps Middle West, Killing Persons and Entailing Heavy Damage to Crops.
CHICAGO, June '. Railroad and vire communications in many sections were seriously hampered today as the result of storms, accompanied by torrential downpours yesterday afternoon, last night and this morning. Several persons were killed and many were Injured. The entire country from Kansas to rennsylvania, suffered, the
DOCTORS USING AMOLOX WITH GREAT SUCCESS Endorsed by leading Druggists. Anwlox, the new remedy for eczema mid all diseases of the skin, is curing thousands of eczema sufferers that have been unable to find relief after trying everything else. A well-known jihysician, who had a patient with a bad case of eczema of the scalp head almost entirely covered with tealy sores -rapidly becoming bald, reported after one week's treatment with the Aniolox prescription, that the hair stopped falling out, scalp was rapidly healing and a new growth of healthy hair just starting. Quoting the exact words of the doctor, "That Ati'olnx is great stuff." Aii'olox is a clean, harmless liquid that is applied to the skin and stops all itch and burning instantly. Will cure eczema and all skin troubles and will clear up a muddy complexion, or pimples on face in 24 hours. All sufferers from eczema, salt, rheum, tetter, acne, barber's itch and pimples on the face should go to their lruggists at once ;uid get a bottle of Amolox. If you are not satisfied, it "will not cost you a cent. A. G. Luen will refund your money if not satisfactory. (Advertisement)
greatest damage occurring in Wisconsin. At Bellevue, Ohio, one man was killed and two badly injured when lightning struck a tree under which they were standing. A farmer was killed by lightning near Bucyrus, Ohio. Six persons were injured, one probably fatally when the storm struck Somerset, Pa. At New Castle, Ind., Jacob Skillman, aged 5, probably will die from shock caused by lightning which set fire to his home early today. Several other places in New Castle were struck by lightning and the fire department was kept busy during the early morning. The storm in the vicinity of New Castle was particularly violent. In Wisconsin floods cut off railway service and did several hundred thousand dollars damage to all kinds of property. The storm also was severe along the lower great lakes and in the Ohio and upprr Mississippi valley. The storm has been followed by cooler weather over the Central states. A severe snow and hail storm swept sections of Oregon and Washington and snow was falling today in Leadville, Colo. Salt Lake City witnessed the unusual phenomenon of a salt storm.

SETS PICNIC DATE
The date for the family picnic of members of the South Side Improvement Association has been set for Sunday, June 14. This is an annual affair and is for members of the association only. The program for the day will not be completed until the meeting of the association next Tuesday night. There will however, be contests of all kinds and speaking by prominent men of the city.
Eighteen dollars worth of finery seventeen year-old Nellie Milton purchased with money she stole from her grandfather, William Milton, when she burglarized the old man's home, have been returned to merchants who were patronized by the girl, and the purchase money has been refunded. Only one merchant refused to take back goods sold to the girl. Two pairs of shoes were not returned because they had been used, one pair by Nellie and one pair by Mamie Porter, with whom Nellie chummed after appropriating $109 from her grandparent. The $18 refunded by merchants makes a total of $73 returned to Milton and the police believe the girl gave the rest of the money to a man or hid it. It was learned today that a charge of grand larceny or burglary may be filed against the girl in the circuit court instead of the juvenile court, because she is more than sixteen years of age. Mamie Porter probably will be released.
Charles Carman, a feeble-minded man of about. 55 years of age, disappeared from the home of J. B. Carman, near Chester, Wednesday morning, and today no trace of his whereabouts had been secured. The last heard of him was Wednesday night, when he was seen about four miles north of Bethel. He wears a heavy black beard and was wearing, when he left home, light-colored overalls, a blue cotton shirt and a straw hat. He has disappeared from his home three or four times, but this is the first time he has wandered away in about nine years. Once he walked to Greenville, O., before being apprehended. A search is now being made by members of his family.

ADDRESS BAPTISTS The Rev. Mr. Smith, of Cincinnati, will preach this evening at 7:30 o'clock at the Second Baptist church. The public is invited to attend.
The most serious early drouth in twenty five years was broken last night said Stephen Kuth, east of the city, today after consulting a diary of weather conditions which he has kept for more than a quarter of a century. "The rain really averted a famine through this belt," Mr. Kuth declared. "The wheat crop will be just about half of what the early prospects were. The oats are beyond saving unless there is an unusual rain from now on. If the drought had held out any longer, there would not have been a good crop in the county." Mr. Kuth stated that there is always a dry spell before harvest time, but as it is much earlier this year, the crops were caught in a critical condition. They are now about two weeks behind, since the rain of last night.

From Jackson township, represented by Mandus E. Mason, school teachers have petitioned Charles O. Williams county superintendent of schools for the return of A. D. Cobb as county agent. Mr. Williams received the following letter today from the Cambridge City schools: C. O. Williams, Pres. B'd Education: Dear Sir: Since the time for the county board of education to elect a county agricultural agent is near at hand, we have a few words to say regarding the present agent, Mr. Cobb. Mr. Cobb has given us excellent service in our schools. He came over once a month for six months and after the first or second lecture he gave to our classes be did us much good. Our boys listened to his lectures very attentively and derived much benefit therefrom and they, as well as the teacher directly interested in the agricultural work, desire that he be retained for another year. Therefore we kindly ask the County Board of Education if it can do so, to keep Mr. Cobb another year. (Signed): E. E. Oldaker, Supt; W. J. Bowden, teacher of agriculture; Mrs. Alice Reese, eighth grade; Cressie Iieed, seventh grade; Robert Beard, president of high school agricultural class.
