Terrible Hail Storm in Minnesota.

On Friday afternoon of week before
last, there appears to have been a terri
BILE hail storm in different parts of Wis.
con>in and Minnesota. At Mantorville.
in bod dge County, Minnesota, the heavens
were fearfully black just before the storm
The average width of the storm was four
or FIVE miles. 1t was such a visitation as
has never before been known there. AT.
ter the first dash of hail, there fell genu-
inc cakes of ice Of the greatest density
hundred of which measured ten inches iu
circumference, an1 weighed from one ali
to three quarters of pound each. A
great part OF the stones were of this size
during the entire storm, which lasted a.
bout fifteen minutes.
The effect Of such storm cannot be
fully described. AS it approached, men.
women and children retreated for safety.
Horses and cattle ran wildly through the
streets, seeking protection and shelter
The wind driving with violence from the
west, the stones were dashed thro'
the windows of every house having any
exposed. Nearly all the glass on the
northside of all the buildings in town wa.
broken out, and large quantity on The
west. One hundred and forty ae panes
were broken in the Hubbell House alone
But not only glass and sash were thu,
mercilessly sbivered, but in many places
the stones we're forced through the roof
of the houses. Young pigs and chicken
we're laid out, and cattle most uumerci
fully bruised, At Concord the house o
Pyle was uuroofed by the wind The
crops in many places over which the
storm passed. are completely ruined. In
other places the damage was less severe.
As yet We can make DO estima ate of the
entire amount of damage done. But
passing as it did over deusely settled
and we'll improved portion of our county,
it must be great. Many individual far
msfs have lost nearl y their entire crops
We have heard it stated that there were
stones which fell in the storm which
measured IL inches in circumference, aud
weighed one pound each, and We have no
reason to doubt the truth of it.
