and Griffin, Owensville, and Princeton, in Indiana, and Witham, Tenn.So prostrated were portions of Illinois and Indiana through which the tornado travelled in a series of erratic hops that definite figures of loss of life and property were impossible early today, although available reports trickling in from territories in which communication virtually was cut off, added to an uncertain casualty list, which it was feared woul dbe increased as the day advanced.TOWNS IN PATH OF TWISTER VIRTUALLY DESTROYED\u2014FIRE ADDED HORROR TO HAVOC Several towns in the path of the twister, which apparently came out of the Ozark Hills, due to low barometric pressure in Arkansas, and first struck at Annapolis, Mo., were virtually destroyed, while fire in many places added horror to havoc.So terrific was the force of the storm that bodies were reported carried a mile, while timbers from the wrecked town of Desoto, 111., were found in Duquione, fifteen miles away.The greatest loss of life, according to available reports, occurred in 'Southern Illinois, where more than five hundred were reported killed as the tornado tore northeastward throug'h Murphysboro, West Frankfort, Desoto, and other larger towns of the ares.SCHOOLHOUSE WAS RAZED AT DESOTO\u2014EIGHTY-EIGHT BODIES ARE TAKEN FROM RUINS At Desoto a school house was razed.Only three of the two hundred and fifty occupants -were reported escaping without injuries, while eighty-eight bodies had been taken from the ruins last night.The main path of the tornado was less than two hundred miles in length, but divisions of the twister hopped off in several directions.Starting from Annapolis the storm moved northeast and after striking two other towns on the Missouri side of the Mississippi River, jumped into Illinois, traversed that State, divided near the Indiana State line, and spent its force in Southern Indiana and Northern Kentucky.\t) Another line apparently moved southeastward from Annapolis, through Cape Girardeau, Mo., and struck isolated portions of northern central Tennessee and Kentucky.A wind storm, also, was reported from Portsmouth, Ohio, hut without serious damage.With its various offshoots, the tornado apparently traversed nearly seven hundred miles of territory, although only in the direct path from Annapolis to Princ'eton, Ind., about 165 miles, was the damage and loss of life heavy.The path of the storm apparently was not wide, in places it being reported three hundred feet.RELIEF RUSHED INTO STRICKEN AREA\u2014TROOPS SENT INTO STRICKEN ILLINOIS DISTRICT While details of the desolation left by the storm came in on crippled lines of communication, relief was being rushed into the stricken area from many nearby towns.Relief workmen, doctors, nurses, medicine and supplies were dispatched immediately from St.Louis, Chicago and other points.Troops were rushed into the district in Illinois and in several towns in the path of the storm local companies of militia were mobilized for guard duty and relief.It was announcod that a bill authorizing $500,000 for relief would be introduced in the Illinois Legislature today.\t.Loss of life was reported from twenty-six towns, most of them in southern Illinois, but it was believed that death and destruction visited many others in the storm area from which reports were still tv be received.UNIQUE CHURCH SERVICE HELD FIRST TIME ! Hy NEA Seri ice DAYTON, 0\u201e March ID.\u2014Possibly the first time in history a minister and rabbi stood side by side in the puipit and declared that God is \u201cour fathe.\" and that Jew and non-Jew are brothers and sisters./ This unique religious service was held here recently when Rev.Charles Brashares, Methodist minister, and Rabbi Samuel Mayerberg, brought their congregations under one roof for a night of worship.And it was not \u201cMy God\u201d whom the Methodist minister invoked; it was not \u201cMy God\u201d to whom the rabbi led them in prayer.It was \u201cOud God\u201d every time The service was unique.Rev.Brashares sent out word that the doors of his churfch would be open to the Jews of the city, so that the people of his congregation and of the Jewish congregations could establish a ground for understanding.Headed by Rabbi Mayebberg one of the youngest and most prgressive rabbis in the Jewish church, more than 300 Jews attended the service.The rabbi and his people and the Methodist congregation sat side by side and lifted their voices in praise to the same Creator.On March 27 the services will he repeated at the Synagog, at which time Rabbi Mayedberg will preach the sermon, and Rev.Brashares will ask the benediction.SEVERAL KILLED IN TRAIN WRECK tAssoeiatect Press Despatch) SPRINGFIELD, Mo., March, 19.A message was received late last night at the local general offices of the Frisco system that the fast passenger train number 105 was overturned near South Greenfield, Mo., fifteen miles west of here.Several persons were reported killed.FOR $22.616.87 WAS fiRABTED IN FAVOR OF PATON MFC.CO.BY JUDGE WHITE THIS MORNINC Important Case of the Paton Manufacturing Company, Plaintiff, Versus the Canadian Bank of Commerce, Defendant, Was Concluded in the Superior Court This Morning by His Lordship Mr.Justice White When He Upheld the Action of the Paton Manufacturing Company, Limited\u2014Action in Warranty Was Dismissed by His Lordship\u2014Case Taken En Délibéré Short Time Ago, PRESIDING in the Superior Court, this morning, His Lordship, Ml Justice White, rendered judgment to the amount of $22,616.87 in favor of the Paton Manufacturing Company et al, plaintiffs, in the case of the Paten Manufacturing Company, plaintiff, versus the Cana-clian Bank of Commerce, defendant.In the case of the Paton Manufacturing Company, Limited et al, piincipal plaintiffs, versus the Canadian Bank of Commerce, principal j defendant, and the said Bank of Commerce, plaintiff in warranty, and the Snerbrooke Land and Water Power Company, Limited, defendant in warranty, the learned Judge dismissed the action of the Canadian Bank of Commerce, the plaintiff in warranty, against the Sherbrooke Land\u2019and W ater Power Company, Limited, defendant in warranty, with costs, stating that \u201cthe loss suffered by the principal plaintiffs is entirely due to the fault of the plaintiff in warranty and its officials, and the defendant;

19.\u2014 The Canadian parliament was not consulted and should have been consulted on Canada\u2019s attitude to the League of Nations protocol, Senator Poirier declared in the Senate last night.For lack of parliamentary endorsement, Premier King's despatch to Geneva lacked force, he said.Canada was drifting into a system af alliances similar to that which produced the Great War.Isolation was not impossible, and without the safeguard of the League of Nations, Canada might be committed to participation in future wars.The greatest danger lay, he said, on the Pacific where a Russian-Japanese-Chdnese alliance would menace the peace of North America.FRENCH FROCK FOR CHILD Moore, John Riddell, Richard Law-1 could muster was five, which turn-son and Robbie Currie; then there

thirteenth, the Red and White Revue turned out to be a very great success.Long before the curtain was scheduled to rise.Pierce Hall was crowded with eager people who had come to see what the present day student had to offer by way of entertainment.From what we have been able to gather it would appear that the audience went away feeling that they had Èeen well repaid for the two hours they spent in Pierce Hall.The Revue, which was held under the auspices of the Literary Society and of the Athletic Association of Stanetead College, was most original in its composition, four of the five main acts having beer, written within the college walls.The costumes and properties generally were also home products.A feature of the Revue was the fact that no time was lost between acts, the whole performance running off like a well oiled machine.The acts which were staged in front of the curtain, when the stage was being fixed up between the main acts, were of just as high an order as the feature presentations.In fact, it is doubtful if any of the main acts equalled \u201cDon\u2019t make mo blush\u201d as presented by Bradford Walsh and Gordon MacGowan.The costume of Walsh was \u2018perfectly killing\u2019 as one lady said, and his acting was superb.The Boys\u2019 Orchestra, which furnished the music, while not attempting anything of a serious nature, gave a very good in- Ronald MacLaren, a jointed by an extension which held a basketball as a head, Marvin Carson with Eric Toy on his shoulders and Ben S'.sco holding Ted C&dham on his.These tall and Short people were put through some physical drill and finally danced their way off the stage in a good old fashioned waltz.Dick Lawson contributed a very smart scotch dance.The costume for this act were, designed by Mrs.Washburn.Mr.Woodworth (Woody) rendered several selections which, as usual, \u201cwent big' as follows: Students\u2014Johnson, C 4; Smith, D.', 8; Carson, M., 7;| Smyth, N., 3 ; Ha'penny, ' ¦

the stage.At 8.15 p.m., the Orchestra began its overture and five minutes later the audience enjoyed a rapid line of banter intermingled with verses of a song containing local hits.Smyth and Clarke, who were featured in this act, threw in a few impromptu bits, as the spirit moved j them, and this added to the inter-I est of their offering.An important feature of the curtain raiser was j the girls chorus.The girls, eight ; in number, were dressed in pretty i blue and pink frocks.They sang two catchy songs and did one or two very dainty dances.Miss C, Sullivan and Miss A.O\u2019Connell greatly pleased th» audience by I their solo dances.The other girls I in the.chorus were Misses B.Tarl-: ton, L.Masten, G.Palaisy, M.Macdonald, M.Rutherford, J.Currie.Kenneth Goff then delighted his hearers with a very well rendered cornet solo, which was followed by a humorous presentation, \u201cThe Decline of the Drama.\u201d A side-view of a stage was presented and both the happenings on the stage and those raking place behind were exhibited to the audience.A dramatic performance in which Sissons, Cummings and Clarke are featured taxes place on the stage, and behind the scenes Doug Smith, the stage director, gives instructions to two stage hands, Dave Reid and Iky Ginsberg, to imitate thunder, lightning, wind and horse galloping.This was very funny and drew a big laugh from the audience.Bob Allan, a stage-door-Johnny, came in at the end of the show to take the leading lady out \u2018o supper.This was followed by the dialogue between Walsh md Mac-' (rowan, which was referred to above.The following act was in direct contrast to the rest of the Revue.\u2018Pierrot of the Minute\u2019, is a dramatic fantasy by Ernest Dew-son.Miss Morey, who presented this number, is deserving of a great deal of credit for the splendid artistic effect she was able to produce.The scene was laid in a glado in the Parc du Petit Trianon, in which were seen spruce trees in the foreground and in the background a gilded canopy, ftuin which were suspended rich dark green curtains covering a raised dias.Miss D.McMillan, who played the part of the Moon Maiden, interpreted a most, ^difficult role in a most charming \"manner.Miss Gwen Halpemiy made J an excellent Pierrot and carried off her part with charm an 1 ease.It was left to Teddy Cadham, however, to captivate the audience.His golden locks and snow white wings, along with his little bow and arrow endeared him to all who looked or.For a little seven year ola boy to sit in one position as Teddy did foi half an hour is indeed a renjark-able feat.An added feature to this fine number was the subdued music which seemed to come out from the trees.At proper intervals Mis.-, Alger rendered Pipe-organ selections, and Miss Heath made hei contribution on the piano.A fitting close to this act was a vocal solo rendered by Miss Louise Mas-ten.Miss Masten sang \u201c.Sleep cast thy canopy\u201d, accompanied by Mr.Martin.The curtain had no sooner fallen when there appeared two colored people on the front of the staçe.Dent Harrison and Doug Smith were these two individuals and they recited \u201cSpeak up Ike\u2019 and spress yo\u2019 self\u201d, on a manner which greatly delighted the audience.The next act brought continuous peals of laughter from the au dience.The Extremities featured Big Dave.Reid of football fame and his equally famous partner, Ikj Ginsberg.Reid came out to intro duce his company of Extremists when he was interrupted by a baby crying in the audience.This baby turned out to ho none other than tbo ubiquitous Iky.A brilliant dialogue then ensued between these two, when finally Reid was able to introduce his company.There ere four very short men, Britton was the only non-college person on the programme and he was included by special request.A very good show was brought to an end by the presentation of a realistic scene, \u2018Stanstand after Dark\u2019.The scene was laid in a room on the boys flats where a mid-night feed was taking place.This, as usual, was interrupted by the untimely arrival of the teacher on charge, who, however, let the boys off with a warning.Fifteen minutes grace were allowed in which an impromptu concert was given.Sissons and Smith surprised their friends by playing some very good instrumental numbers, which in the end turned out to be fake selections, as the real musicians, who were hidden in the wings of the stage, came, forward to answer the encore.The cake and biscuits which were devoured with great alacrity by the actors were kindly supplied by Dent Harrison and Sons, well known Montreal bakers.The feed took place in Dent Harrison Jr.\u2019s room.The final act was brought to a close by singing the college song and by a lusty College yell.Faculty-Students.Following the girls basketball game on Saturday afternoon,a very important game took place between the Faculty and the Students.For a while it looked as though the younger generation, full of vim and vigor, would win out, but as in all scientific games, experience proved to be the deciding factor, so that victory went to the profs by the close score of 30 to 25.The Students trotted out ten or fifteen players, while the best the staff Mrs.Clement.-of Rock Island, is! a guest of her brother, Mr.E.1.1 Gilbert.,\t, Mrs.F.C.Humphrey has return-!
