FRIDAY'S STORM.
THE 111! ESCAPES AM UTTLE MM.IBE IE
SILTS IX TIE CWXTY.
A Scheel Heuse la Maner Township I
,. BIewa te Pleeea a 1 Tobacco
shed Demolished.
Lancaster aecm te be very fortunate
in escaping storms which are scarcely ever
ns eevcre bore as in surrounding placer.
Friday evening a thunder storm came up
about 0 o'clock and it was preceded by a
very heavy wind, which did much damage
in surrounding towns. Iu this city the
rainfall was rpilte heavy and it had the
effect of cooling oft" the air considerably.
The dnniage by it here was net treat.
Limbs were blown from tree and strewn
nleng the streets, but buildings were net
damaged.
The top was blown from the large pipe
which rum from the cellar of the postefflce
le the top of the building en the outside,
nnd it is still hanging by n ceuple of heavy
irons.
The wind wni se high In this city before
the rain begun that clouds of dust were
blown in every direction. Persons stand
Uig en the pavements in Centre Squat e
were unable te see the monument. After
the rnlu the sunset was very beautiful.
A tobacco shed, in size 30 by 120 feet,
owned by Jacob Hlestand, at Sahiugn, was
entirely demolished by the storm. A large
number of trees in tlie sanie vicinity were
uprooted.
The most set ions dnninge by the storm
is reported from Maner township. Har
mony Hall school house, which was situ
ated two miles northwest of Millorsvllle,
w as a brick building nnd it v as erected six
years age. During yesterday' storm it
was blown down by the wind, which was
very high in that section. The building wasa
total wreck nnd biicks v ere scattered In
every direction. Strange te say, most of
the desks in the house were net' damaged
vvjille the steve was broken te piece.
The teacher iu charge of the school is
Miss llrttle Clmrles. Slie had Just dis
missed the scholars a short time bofero the
accident, urn frightful fatality would have
taken place.
IS fitOXIX A MintnnitKRf
A Bebber's Confession liaise u New
Theory of Ills Disappearance.
Onr fact of the C'renln mystery was
lieuicu up in Chicago Friday w hen it wna
dlseevei thnt the trunk which seemed se
closely is micteil with the mystery had
contained ihe body of a woman." Whether
Dr. Creulii can be connected with this new
crime cannot be decided. Thursday night
OllicorO'Slallevarrestodn young man, giv
ing the nauie of Jehn 111 own, en n charge of
hone stealing. The police havn been en
the lookout for the home driven by men who
were seen in Lake View with the myster
ious trunk Saturday night, and when It was
found that this was identical with the
herse in lirewn'N possession, they subjected
him te a ckise examination. Under this be
broke down this morning and confessed
that the wagon had contained the bedv of a
woman w 1th her head and feet cut off se
thnt Mie could be crewded Inte It.
Captains Schnack and O'Dennell nt onee
set efllcers te work following up the old
trail, and appllodthe screws te Brown se
successfully that he weakened and told all
he knew. He said the herse had liecn
stelen from ene nlacc and tlie wiurnn from
another en Webster nvcuue, mid that two
men had assisted him in getting the trunk
into tlie wagon. They drove up into Lin
coln Pail; and sank tlie body in the North
lake, and then went en up te Luke View
and tumbled the trunk off at a quiet place,
lleth the men named by 111 own are known
te the police, and will probably he gathered
in seen. One came from SliuiicnpelU some
time age and tlie ether is a Chicago thief,
Tlie terce of ofiieera who have been drag
ging tlie ilver for Dr. Creuln' body were
at once called oil' and set te dragging the
North lake, nnd wik was carried en until
at night w Itheut any trace of the body lin
ing found. 'Iho theery held by the police
i s that the woman w bose body wns in' the
trunk was tha victim of an abortion com
mitted by Dr. Crenin, thai she died under
the opctatien, and In his fear and eager
ness te cover up bis crfine he cut up the
body, put It In the trunk, had It disposed
ef.and get out of the way himself.
This tallies with the story told yesteidny
by SIlss Annie Murphy, "an acquaintance
el Dr, Cienin, that she saw him en a car
lateSaturtlay night heading for the Union
depot. She says she positively Identified
him, nnd thnt be still had w'itli him his
physician's cusa nnd a roll of absorbent
cotton. Some of this cotton was found In
(he trunk. She also said he sat inn dark
-part of the car, kept bis liw.ul cleu n nnd
seemed te be iu tumble.
On the ether hand Dr. Creniii's friends
Insist that this is only another plot te divert
suspicion fiem his murderers. When
steiics were set nlleat connecting Crenin
with Le Caren, the informer, they do de do
ueuueed tliem us lies s t up te scieouthe
real criminals nud they nie equally leyul
under this new charge. They still assert
iiiet positively that Crenln's piosectitieu
of tlie men who stelo tlie iiinnnv intended
for further.incaef the Irish can e has gotten
bill) Inte all this tumble, mul that lie ex
pected te lie guicii nt any time ter his ellei ts
te bring tlie thieves te justice.

The gas continued te bubble en 1'iiday
In tlie big hole made for a well at Clan's
Sprcehels' sugar relinery, Philadelphia,
and its origin lemiilued it mysterious as
ever. It was net lighted, as the lliiine In
terfered with the men In their w eik, but it
was apparently In as great a volume as en
previous d.ijs. Tint gns has, new been
I King fiem out of the mud for awcek, and
this fuel mere than any ether leads the
men te think It natural gas. If it bad been
e nil nary niar.sli gas, it is believed that the
supply would have, been exhausted in a
ilav or two.
4. W Hughes, the foreman for J, K.
JteblUMiu, who is sinking the well, has
worked iu the natural gns count rv, and
thinks that the oil muv be e'f that
kind, ns it bums iu precisely the same

It Is null natural gas. Ilxperts will be

cat's cutest trick is Iu catching 1'ngllsh
sparrows. The calls lisl from tlie dinner
pa'ls of the girls ; after dinner It generally
niings in a nice plump sparrow as dessert.
I'uiiesity ns te hew it caught the birds se
ri-guUirl.x was aroused, and the cat
was watihed. One of the girls liad
given It a ploeo of luead, and Jjusm-was
seen te tnVe it lu its mouth mid go out te
the oencrcto walk in the vard, where It
chewed up the bread and liiacisl it en the

Jehn McAllister, a woll-kuewn farmer
of Norrlten township, was mystified for
several days last week that ene of his
cows, the most proliile inllker In the herd,
no longer yielded hur quota of his milk
supply ; lu fact her udder was a shriveled
nud shrunken a though she vvore net
" in profit," te us the vernacular of the
farmer. Susjiectlng that she wns being
robbed efhnruilld, he perched himself en
a fence after turning thu cows lute pasture
en Tuesday evening, and settled Iilmself
down te avvnlt developments. He had
net long te wait, for seen after the
cow began te graze he saw u water snake
dnrt out of the grass nnd take a grip en ene
of her teats. Sir. SlcAlllster watched the
proceeding a short time, and noticed that
the cow offered no objection te being
milked by the reptile. Ife then cautiously
approached the robber nnd killed It. The
hiiuke was a v ery large one, for one or it
sioeeti, and gav e ovldeiice of geed nursing.
The above story Is vouched for by County
CoiuniKslener Samuel K. Anders, and a
both he and Sir. Allister are well known .
and reputable cltlzen-, the tale cannot ba
doubted.
