Lawitilsca, April parties who came on the Santa Fe Road to-day, particulars are learned of the terrible tornado which struck the town or Cottonwood at Saturday afternoon.

The wind grew strong at about half-past 4 o'clock, and before dark it had visited its vengeance upon life and property alike. Of the family of L. G. Miller, the wife was killed and four children were very seriously hurt Among the others who were --injured appear the following names: J. C.

Walbro and children, Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Smith and children, John Merritt, Mrs. Mathevid, Mrs. Edward Davis and family, Mrs.

Osborn, and Mrs. Ross. The Cottonwood Hotel was blown to tee ground, and eight or ten dwelling houses shared a like fate. Along the line of the Santa Fe, iu the vicinity, not less than forty-eve freight cars were turned into the ditch. One car had been giving shelter to a party of tramps.

Along the banks of st reams a large amount of timber was torn up and sea tered over the prairie. Telegraph lines were badly broken for several miles. Considerable stock was killed by outhouses being overturned and by flying timbers. The wind was accompan- led by heavy rain and bail, so that streams were suddenly swelled and roads ren- dered well nigh impassable. In Empo- ria the Normal School building was partly unroofed, and Selden's flooring mill suf- feted extensive injury.

Oilier baildings of the town were nuroolod and otherwise injured. The actual of property will be greatest in the country, though crops are not at a point where they will be likely to receive much setback. No wind storm of near so serious a nature has ever been known before in Central Kansas. THE PENNSYLVANIA RIOT CASES. PHILADELIMIA, April 15.

--The suit of Sherman Hall of Illinois, against the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, to recover $40,900 for ninety-one sacks or wool destroyed during the riots of Anzust 1ast4 was taken up in the United States District Court this morning. After the impaneling of the jury, the case was postponed until to-morrow. 'nip is a teat suit, and upon its decision depends twenty-two other cases. BUSINESS NOTICES, AMUSEMENTS. THE DELUGE AT LIAVERLY9S.

This is a dramatization of a portion of the Book of Genesis. The adapter has evidently read the first chanter of Paradise Lost and come of Byron's Cain, and in his struggle to combine these various poetical aceoneta of the origin of evil has produced a wondrous mass of inconnities in the form of a drama, tile exact character of which it would be impossible to define and pretty difficult to describe. Probably a solemn Preebyterian would look upon the piece as a blasphemous burlesque of sacred things; but those who remember Brother Moody's picturesque descriptions of Babylon, Nineveh, and other burled relics of the fore be introduced such realistic sketches as Jonah mounted on a dry-goods box, might be inclined to see the matter In another lighL We do not believe there was any intention to raise a laugh at the expense of that unfortunate transaction which brought death into the world with all our woe: the author doubtless was poesessed with a sincere desire to popularize and revivify the tragic story of our first parentspoor simpletons seduced by the arts of a wily adversary. But whether intentional or not, the effect upon the audience was decidedly as mirth-provoking as any comedy, such a curious commingling was it of ancient mysteries and modern Black-Crookeries. The first three acts are as serious as could well be imagined.

There is the fall of Lucifer from Heaven to the pit which is brilliantly illuminated, by the way, and made highly attractive by a dance of demonesses in white muslin. De Rosa and Pallailino doing brave work to amuse the arch fiendand a terrible curse against mankind. conneived in true melodramatic spirit. Then follows tile scene in Paradise, the entrance of the serpent, the temptation, and the fall. After that comes the murder of Abel by hie big brother Cain, the act ending with an impressive curse oy Adam, and the entrance of the angel with the item sword.

A lapse of some 1. -WO years intervenes between the third and fourth acts, in which we are introduced to the same class of people, dressed just the same, but with different names. Adam i8 transmogrified into Japhet. and Eve ban become Noemaand the still pursues her. It is not quite clearly ehown whether Satan is really in Jove with the daughter of earth, or whether be is putting all that on as a subtle dodge to accomplish his hellish designs.

Certainly he manages to have a jolly good time of it while roaming around, for right before the delugehaving stolen Japhet's bride away from himhe evokes a troop of excellent dancers, who succeed in making everything as lovely as possible. until the anger of Heaven is finally aroused and everything goes to wreck and ruin except the favored ark of Shittim wood, which is seen dimly in the distance moving at the rate of about '200 knots an hour. In the dramatic sections of this play there is a chance for much magnificent roaring on the part of Satan. which character is intrusted to Mr. T.

W. Keene. He plays it indeed earnest, and he plays it well. just like a roaring lion. Idiss Helen made Tracy a graceful, willowy Eve, 81enaer, and tall.

and tender; and her Novae was like unto it. Mr. Mestayer was a very portly Cain, and the between him and the diminutive Abet was so remarkable as to cause an involuntary laugh when he undertook to throttle the boy. Seriously, the drama was a good deal of an unconscious burlesque. and the real attraction lay in the dancing of DeRosa and Palladtno, aided by a well-arranged ballet by the Kirallys.

The scenery was occasionally good, although not by any means of such merit as to excite much enthusiasm. The house was weil filled last evening. and the applause was frequent and hearty. A FATAL FALL. Special Dispatch to The Tr-tbuneBrammaTost, April 15.George Flynn, an employe of the Chicago.

COTTAWA, April the House of Commons to-night. according to an agreement entered Into between the leader of the Government and the leader of the Opposition, a vote was taken on Sir John A.

Ministerial and Opposition pane re characterize the proceedings in the House Friday night and Saturday as simply disgracefuL A grave constitutional question was before the Mouse for decision. and, instead of gravely deciding it under a due sense of responeibility devolving upon them, the membem on one side talked a whole day against time, while those on the other side resorted to the usual but not illegitlinate methods of interrupting them. Such a demoralizing exhibition has done wore than anything else in the history of the country to bring toe House of Commons into discredit and mar its reputation for the orderly conduct of the public business.
