Lewis Coffee and wife and eight children were killed and twelve others were hurt, some seriously. The path of the cyclone presents a terrible scene of havoc. Timbers of wrecked houses are scattered in every direction Some were carried high into the air and others were driven deep into the ground or through trees.

Many head of cattle were killed. One dead cow was found with a shingle driven through her back. But for the fact that the country over which the storm passed is sparsely settled the loss of life would have been much greater. There were many marvelous escapes. J.

The discovery last night of the body of Anna Muder, 19 years old, who disappeared suddenly from the home of her parents at Centropolis, a suburb of Kansas City, a week before Christmas, unravels a mystery which had completely baffled the police. The body was found in the lake at Washington park, near Centropolis, where it had been frozen in, evidently for many weeks. Anna Muder was the daughter of a prominent citizen of Centropolis. On the night of her disappearance she was entertaining some company at her home.

She arose from the piano, on which she had been playing, and without offering any explanation, left the house. From that time until tonight not the slightest clew to her whereabouts was discovered. Her father spent hundreds of dollars in a fruitless search for her. The lakes in that vicinity were dragged, but without result. Several theories were advanced, one of them being that she had committed suicide because her parents had interfered in her iove affairs, and another that she had eloped.

The finding of the body gives color to the suicide theory. Money to and choice real estate secui- ity. Farm loans now made at sax per cent expens payments allowed. ohn H. Bothwell, attorney Sedalia National Bank Building.

Democrat: Friday, March 24, i8gg SEDALIA GROWING. Four Enterprises That Furnish Much Work. WRITE-UP IN THE WL The Brewery, lee Plant, Cold Storage Business and the Shops of the K. A T. Sedalia was referred to as fol- lows in the Globe-Democrat of Sunday, two pages being devoted to showing that is abroad in the west For about a year after the presidential election of 1896, Sedalia was at a standstill.

Then business men began to invest their money in new enterprises, and as a result of their confidence in the future of the city, there are now four new industries here, employing about 300 men at fair wages. In 1896 Sedalia spent a large amount of money in the capital removal campaign, and it was in October of 1897 that the plans of the Moerschel Brewing plant were drawn and accepted, and the work begun. This company erected a brewery which has a capacity of 25,000 barrels per annum. It employs twelve men and has a monthly pay roll of $900. The building was completed in 1898 and the business of the company has been and is a very satisfactory one.

After this brewery was built the Lemps found it necessary to increase their facilities for handling beer out of Sedalia to Central Missouri points, and a fine new plant, costing $100,000 to build, was put up. An ice factory is a part of the Lemp plant, which is incorporated under the name of the Ice and Refrigerating Twenty men are employed in the beer depot and the ice factory, and their wages average $40 per month. This plsnt was completed in the summer of 1898. The Sedalia Ice and Cold Storage company, having already a first- class ice plant, increased its capac- ity and built cold storage and egg and poultry warehouses at cost of 2 during the fall of 1S98. In these industries 100 men are employed picking poultry, packing eggs, curing meats, and they are paid at an average rate of $35 per month.

Many of the men get good wages, but the number of boys employed in the poultry department cuts the average down to $35 a month. last important industry is the new car and coach shops of the Missouri, Kansas and Texas railway, built in this city by the citizens, who subscribed and paid $100,000 in cash for the buildings. The company has fitted the shops with the best and most modern machinery at a great additional cost, and this week all the men employed in the old shops moved into the new ones. There is room in the shops for the employment of Soo men, but the company has not yet announced how many will be employed this spring. There are a few more than 300 at present employed, at an average wage of shops are the finest and most complete on the Missouri, Kansas and Texas system, and the people of Sedalia are proud of of the fact that they built them and thus gave to the city a permanent place of employment for several hundred men.
